Wear it quickly! My mad dog-like host!

The closer you get to where the brigade lives, the more people you meet.

What happened yesterday had already spread throughout the whole brigade, so when everyone saw Zhang Xiuxiu coming, they all had a smile on their faces. After they walked past, they turned around and started talking to the people around them.

At first, everyone thought she was too impulsive. A little girl dared to start her own business. However, after hearing the work points she earned, this idea disappeared. To put it bluntly, some men still refused. You can’t earn so many work points!

When we arrived at the place to pick up the tools, there was already a long queue, waiting to open the warehouse to pick up the tools.

"Xiuxiu, come here, come here!" Mrs. Cheng stood in the middle of the team, her eyes been searching for the target person since she left the house. When she saw Mei Qianghua coming, her eyes immediately lit up and she quickly waved to her.

Mei Qianghua walked over and said, "Morning, aunt."

"Hey." Mrs. Cheng narrowed her eyes with a smile and gave up her seat in front of her. "Come here, line up in front of me. Don't worry, no one will say anything." Mrs. Cheng turned to the person behind her and asked, "Aunt Zhang, dont you agree?"

Aunt Zhang smiled and nodded, taking a step back slightly to give up her position.

Mei Qianghua is happy to jump in line.

Receive tools first, work first, join this kind of team, almost no one is willing to say anything, not to mention that everyone has not forgotten her victory yesterday, so they will not quarrel over this idea.

Because they are afraid of stirring up trouble, the two sides will get angry and start fighting. The one who cannot be offended must be himself.

After getting the tools, Mei Qianghua followed Mrs. Cheng to the fields. Today they worked in pairs.

It is said that it is land, but in fact it is more like finding a small area in the cracks of the rocks to grow crops.

The plants planted here are just like the potted plants I saw before.

As soon as the hoe was dug, the hoe collided with the stone. The shock made the arm numb, and the sound made people couldn't help but feel their teeth sore. Mei Qianghua opened her mouth and clicked her teeth up and down for a while before she recovered.

"This land is different from the fields below. You can't use strong force. You have to be like me and scrape gently with a hoe. You can't dig." Seeing that the progress of the plum roses was not very fast, Mrs. Cheng stopped to take a look. Yes, the problem was pointed out immediately.

"The ground below is full of rocks. If you dig too hard, you will easily hit it and the hoe will become useless." Mrs. Cheng said, bending down, picking up the weeds that were removed by hoeing, and gently patting the soil off. , "This soil also needs to be removed, otherwise the land will be gone after digging a few times."

Mei Qianghua understood quickly and had good physical strength, so she quickly completed her task.

The mother-in-law is not slow either. Not long after she finished it, she also finished it.

The two of them each put their hoes in the ground, sat on the handles, chatted, and tied up the weeds they had cleared so they could take them back when they were done with work.

This weed can be taken back to feed chickens and pigs. If they don't eat it, it can be dried and used as kindling for making fires.

Mrs. Cheng: "The captain said that you will live alone in the future and won't be able to eat much food, so you won't need to do such heavy work, so he assigned you to our team. The work points you earn will be enough to fill your stomach."

Mei Qianghua nodded: "I will go and thank the captain another day."

Mrs. Cheng was clearing the weeds without raising her head, "It's time to thank you, but you don't have to go out of your way to thank me. I'll treat you all to a meal after the autumn harvest and we can all thank you together.

You are living alone now, and if you go to thank him, those shady guys in the village will definitely talk behind his back, and they will say that it is nothing but something. "

Mei Qianghua nodded in an educated manner and said, "I still don't know who the uncles who helped me yesterday are from. I'll have to ask my aunt to help me when I treat everyone to dinner."

Mrs. Cheng's eyes were filled with laughter, "Okay, I'll keep this in mind for you. If you see one on the way back, I'll point it out to you."

Yesterday, I watched it on the sidelines. They were all people who had two buns in their own house, and they had gone through "adversity" together, but I couldn't remember it clearly.

Speaking of this, I thought about what the captain said when he left yesterday. They can't tell others about seeing "her". If others know about it, whether they believe it or not is another matter. Then someone with good intentions may take advantage of it. matter.

So apart from his own family and those who had two buns in their own homes, only one captain knew about it.

It was almost noon. The team leader took a score book and looked at the fields assigned to everyone. After making sure that everyone had finished their work, he recorded their work scores and announced that work was over at noon.

Mei Qianghua knocked off the "increasing mud pads" on the soles of her shoes, put the hoe on her shoulders, and separated from Mrs. Cheng.

I have to work in the afternoon, so I don’t need to hand the tools back. I can return them after work ends in the afternoon.

After all, the leadership team of the Xiushui Brigade consists of a captain and an accountant. They each hold multiple positions, so there is no need to increase their workload with such trivial matters.

I washed off the mud by the river and returned to the thatched house all wet.

A thatched house is not only a roof made of grass, but also the surrounding walls are made of straw.

The annual repair is to use new straw to strengthen the surrounding walls.

Mei Qianghua looked at the thickness of the straw wall. It was less than half a meter wide but thirty or forty work-minutes wide. It looked quite strong.

The doors and windows are all embedded in the straw walls. The safety index is not high. It is designed to protect against gentlemen but not against villains.

Anyway, I don’t have anything good on the surface, so I’m not afraid of losing it.

After eating, taking a lunch break, it was time to go to work again.

In the afternoon, I was still with Mrs. Cheng, but on a different ground, not far from the rest of the brigade.

I was immersed in my work when I suddenly heard someone calling me.

Looking up, I saw two aunts coming together.

"Are the two aunts looking for me?"

"My surname is Huang, you can just call me Aunt Huang."

"Just call me Aunt Wang."

The two said with a smile.

"Hello Aunt Huang, hello Aunt Wang." Mei Qianghua called obediently, "Do you two aunts have anything to do with me?"

Aunt Huang and Aunt Wang looked at each other. They didn't go to watch the fun yesterday, but their husbands who came back said that Xiu Xiu was very vicious and broke his brother's legs and teeth. But now they think it's not very well-behaved. Well, where is the danger?

"It's nothing." Aunt Huang took out a clay pot from the basket on her arm and handed it to her, "The child's father came back yesterday and said that there is no pot where you live. No, ask me to bring it from home. I brought a clay pot over and let you use it first."

Originally, he wanted to send five kilograms of whole grains to her, but he couldn't bear it. Thinking that she lived alone and the guy who cooked the food must not have prepared it yet, he simply set aside a clay pot and gave it to her, which was not what he wanted. ?

Mei Qianghua stared at the pot, speechless in her heart. It didn't matter whether she accepted it or not.

Take it, the rim of your clay pot is pitch black, I wonder what it was originally used for.

Don't answer it, you can't help but appreciate it when people are kind enough to help you.

"Thank you, auntie, but I don't need it now. I'll just go to the market to buy it when I go to the market the day after tomorrow." Mei Qianghua still waved her hand and refused.

Uh……

As soon as these words came out, Aunt Huang was stunned, and Aunt Wang, who originally wanted to take out the matches from her trouser pocket, was also stunned.

Don’t want anything given by others?

When the two of them met Mei Qianghua's bright eyes, they suddenly felt guilty.

Aunt Huang said dryly: "Okay, since you don't need it, I'll keep it for now and tell Auntie when you need it."

"Thank you first, Auntie." Mei Qianghua said with a smile.

After chatting dryly for a few more words, the two of them left together.

Not long after, Mrs. Cheng trotted over from a distance and said excitedly: "Have you heard that your ex-sister-in-law married into the Xu family?"

"Ah?" Mei Qianghua was surprised, so fast? I thought I had to wait ten days and a half.

Mrs. Cheng: "Because she couldn't afford the one hundred yuan gift given to her, the Xu family asked her to marry Xu Gaoyuan."

"Xu Gaoyuan is willing? Wang Chunxiang agrees?" Mei Qianghua asked.

Mrs. Cheng curled her lips disdainfully: "What should I do if I don't agree? His family doesn't have a second hundred yuan to give him a wife, and Wang Chunxiang can't afford a hundred yuan, so we have to solve it like this."

"Don't the Wang family's old couple love Wang Chunxiang very much? Are they willing to do so?"

"The old couple of the Wang family can't take care of themselves, so how can they take care of her?"

Mei Qianghua blinked and asked curiously: "What's going on?"
