I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 40 Song Qi

Wei Lan nodded happily, said a few more words to You Lan and then ran towards the mountain road of Cha Mountain.

 There is only a tea mountain bag between Team 8 and Team 7. You can reach Team 8 by just walking along the trail.

You Lan looked at the people walking away, and then at her brother who was working beside him, "Brother, I like Sister Lan."

Seeing that Gu Chao was silent, You Lan knelt down and played with the mud, "Will brother marry Sister Lan?"

“Children, why can’t they imitate adults as matchmakers?” Gu Chao’s voice was dull. Under the scorching sun, the bulging tendons on his arms were shiny.

Youlan blinked, "If sister Lan likes my brother, will he marry her?"

His hand holding the sickle paused, and he said without thinking: "She won't like me."

 Actually, what he wanted to say was that it was impossible for educated youths from big cities like them to look down on people with muddy legs like them.

"Who said that, Sister Lan just likes me!" Youlan's voice was high and firm, "Really, she asked me about it before."

Perhaps You Lan is too serious, which makes people feel that he is taking it seriously.

The smile on Gu Chao's lips fleetingly disappeared, he straightened up and looked at You Lan, "Really?"

You Lan nodded firmly, "Grandma taught me not to lie... Where are you going?"

"After work, let's go home for dinner." Gu Chao climbed up to the edge of the field and seemed to have to go back to escape, regardless of whether his sister was following him or not.

 Her heart was inexplicably agitated. Gu Chao wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking it must be because it was too hot today.

 …

 Wei Lanshi only found Song Qi after the eighth team finished work. She had just joined the production team and was unfamiliar with her place. She was mistaken by a fellow villager for being an educated youth who came to join their team, so she was able to escape after explaining herself.

“Hahahahaha, Sister Lanlan must be too beautiful!” Song Qi was very proud after hearing this, “By the way, Sister Lanlan, are you okay over there?”

Wei Lan nodded, "Everything is fine, what about you?"

 Except for having a pair of bad brother and sister, everything is really good.

Song Qi nodded, "It's good for me too. Although the work is very tiring, the members are very honest and take good care of us."

Wei Lan felt relieved when she saw that she didn't look like she was telling lies, "You know that you can't have the intention to harm others, and you have to be on guard against others, right?"

Song Qi looked at her angrily, "I know, I know, Sister Lanlan, I'm only a few months younger than you, you don't really treat me like a child, do you?"

Seeing Song Qi's embarrassed face, Wei Lan stopped calling her, "Okay, I can't stay too long, I have to go back!"

They were standing outside the educated youth center talking. Wei Lan got up and left when she heard the call for dinner inside. Song Qi felt reluctant to leave again, "I will go see Sister Lan Lan when I have some free time."

The house of the Eighth Educated Youth Team is not as good as that of the Seventh Team, but it is not difficult to see that Song Qi is doing well here and at least gets along well with other educated youths.

Wei Lan smiled slightly and nodded, bidding farewell to Song Qi, and walked to the seventh team in a shaded area. It took half an hour longer than when he came here.

 When we returned to the field where we were separated from the Gu brothers and sisters, the weather was surprisingly hot and there was no one in the field.

The farming industry is busy and the heat is scorching. I am afraid that everyone will get sick from the heat. Previously, the team leader adjusted the starting and finishing time. The lunch break was extended by one and a half hours, and the starting and finishing time in the evening was pushed back.

　　It gets dark late in summer, so there is no delay in working.

Looking around, Wei Lan sat down in the shade of a tea tree, took out the sweet potatoes he brought out in the morning, and ate them dryly.

When sweet potatoes are hot, they taste soft and sweet, but when they are cool, they taste choking.
