Ou Ruoxing listened carefully to what Aunt Wang said, identifying it carefully and memorizing it bit by bit.

Although it was explained in detail, it actually didn't take much time.

"Auntie, I'll try to pull it out a little bit first, and then help you check to see if I pulled it out wrong, okay?"

"Sure, why not!" Aunt Wang agreed readily.

Of course she was willing to help such a cooperative educated youth. It was just a piece of cake.

Besides, they are in the same team, so if they finish the task earlier, they can also rest earlier.

Ou Ruoxing didn't waste any time and started weeding the field where Aunt Wang had started.

After three or five minutes, he looked up and said to Aunt Wang with a smile: "Auntie, please take a look to see if I pulled out the wrong one."

Aunt Wang stayed to work on the field next to her. Having done farm work for decades, she found weeding not that difficult a task, so she worked faster.

Hearing Ou Ruoxing's words, she immediately put down the work in her hands, walked over swiftly, squatted down and checked the grass she had pulled out and the crop seedlings in the field.

After finding that there were no problems, he looked at her with a little surprise, "Hey! Ou Zhiqing is incredible! I just briefly explained it once, and you remembered it all!"

Ou Ruoxing, who was praised, raised his hand and touched his nose embarrassedly, "This is all because of my good teaching!"

It’s nice to hear, who wouldn’t like to hear it?

"Oh! This little mouth is really good at talking! It has to be said, if you want to speak beautifully, you have to be cultured, and you have to be an cultured person to be able to speak like that, hahaha~" The aunt on the other side of the ridge that Ou Ruoxing was in charge of heard their conversation and couldn't help but laugh and join in the conversation.

"Hey! How can you say that, old fellow?" Aunt Wang was afraid that Ou Ruoxing was too shy to stand the teasing, so she raised her finger and pointed at the person on the other side and scolded with a smile.

"Ou Zhiqing, she is the mother of our team leader. You can just call her Aunt He."

Ou Ruoxing smiled and called out, "Hello, Aunt He!"

Although the busy summer farming season has passed, everyone is still busy tending the crops. They only chat for a few words and then go back to work.

In addition to the young girls, young wives, aunts and grandmothers in the village, there were also some educated youth who went to the countryside earlier than Ou Ruoxing and his friends in the same team.

Their relationships were good and bad, but basically a few people formed a small group, working and chatting at the same time, and time passed quickly.

A small group of women was allocated a piece of land of about two mu, which was planted with sorghum seedlings. Because farmyard manure was added to fertilize the field before planting, the grass also absorbed nutrients and grew very fast.

After Ou Ruoxing learned how to recognize grain seedlings and grass, he put on the cotton gloves he took out from his personal space and started working.

She hadn't done farm work for many years. She had only done this work when she was in school in her previous life. The girl she traveled through time to was originally from the city and didn't know how to do farm work at all.

So at the beginning she moved very slowly and couldn't keep up with them at all. But after she gradually became familiar with them, she became faster and faster.

When people who don't know about this see it, they will say, "Oh my god! This European educated youth works very efficiently. He doesn't mind the dirt or the tiredness, and he works very enthusiastically!

"Ding ding ding" the bell for the end of work at noon rang, and the hard-working people stopped their work and waited for their respective team leaders to verify the work done in the morning before they went home to cook and eat.

The weather is still quite hot nowadays, so we get off work at about 11:30 in the morning and go back to work at 2:30 in the afternoon. There is a three-hour break in between, which is enough time for each family to eat and rest.

After each team leader verified the work done by each team member and educated youth, the work point clerk registered everyone's work points and returned to the brigade headquarters.

"Ou Zhiqing, you don't need to help with cooking at noon. Today is your first day at work, and you must be very tired. Auntie and your sister Cuicui can cook." Auntie Wang understood that this was Ou Ruoxing's first time doing farm work, and was worried that she would not be able to adapt, so she went out of her way to help her.

Ou Ruoxing nodded shyly, indicating that she understood. "Thank you, Auntie! I'll have to trouble you and Sister Cuicui for lunch."

Although I did farm work in my previous life, it is a thing of the past after all. Besides, my current body was raised in the city and I have never done such tiring work. Now my whole body is protesting~

With the help of Aunt Wang and the others, after having a full lunch, I would quickly return to my room and lie on the kang to take a nap so that I could get enough energy to work.

Unlike the harmonious and comfortable life on Ou Ruoxing's side, Xu Yue and Zheng Yingjie were fine. Although they had been doing farm work for the whole morning, they were diligent and considerate. As soon as they returned to their lodging place, they quickly helped others prepare lunch.

Li Lian was a complete troublemaker. She lay down directly after returning to her room and waited for dinner.

"Li Zhiqing, why don't you help with the cooking?"

"Hmph! I've worked for a whole morning and I'm exhausted. Why do you still want me to cook?" Li Lian spoke harshly in a sharp voice, which was very harsh.

The family she was staying with was also from the Zhang clan. "Who doesn't go to work? Why can you just lie down when you come back and need us to serve you? Are you a capitalist's daughter? How can you exploit the common people?" The daughter-in-law of this family was also a hot-tempered person. She would explode when she encountered injustice.
