"I know you are new here and may not be used to it yet. You can take a day off tomorrow and buy what you need. We will start working the day after tomorrow, which is also the day to start harvesting. You should be mentally prepared." After saying that, the team leader turned around and went back to the office to drink tea. In this hot summer, standing for a while makes your mouth dry, and talking for a long time makes your mouth even dryer.

The educated youth followed the instructions of the team leader and went to the accountant to register and then to the cashier to collect their subsidies. Soon, the formalities were completed.

"Yuan Zhe, can you help us?" Wang Xin looked at Yuan Zhe shyly and asked softly.

However, Yuan Zhe acted as if he didn't hear anything. He took the food from Su Ting's hand and walked forward.

Su Ting glanced at him and raised his eyebrows, his face showing no emotion. He turned around and showed a wicked smile that made people feel chilled.

"Hey, why are you so rude! If you don't want to do it, just say so. Why are you ignoring me?" Zheng Xuan couldn't bear to see her good sister being ignored, so she stepped forward and shouted at Yuan Zhe.

Yuan Zhe pretended not to hear and continued walking forward. Zheng Xuan kept insisting, "We are educated youth who went to the countryside together. Shouldn't we help each other?"

"I'm not free, you can find someone else!" Yuan Zhe replied indifferently.

"Okay, Xuanxuan, let's do it ourselves!" Wang Xin held Zheng Xuan and said.

"Xuanxuan, it may be a bit hard for you. I am weak and have little strength, so I may not be able to help you much." Wang Xin said softly.

"Host, we found a green tea." Yu Congcong was studying how to modify the farm tools, and the system suddenly said to Yu Congcong excitedly.

"Ah, oh, tell me about it." Yu Congcong was still concentrating on the things in his hands and asked in his heart.

The system projects the monitored images into Yu Congcong's brain.

"I didn't realize that Wang Xin looks cute. I originally thought she was a sweetheart! I didn't expect she is actually a green tea. Aren't people supposed to be simple and innocent in this era? How come there are all kinds of people here? Oh, this task is arduous!" Yu Congcong kept complaining to the system in her heart.

"Host, don't be discouraged! Difficulties bring challenges, and only in this way can you grow!"

"Still growing? Why don't I see you growing? You're still so useless. Keep an eye on Su Ting. I think she's going to cause trouble."

"Yes, host, make sure you keep a close eye on her."

"Well, Wang Xin, Zheng Xuan, if you really can't carry it, just wait here for a while. I'll send mine back first and then come to help you." Feng De didn't seem to hear Wang Xin's teasing.

"You can't even lift 30 kilograms. What will you do when you go to work? Do you need others to help you? Are you here to build the village or to take care of the elderly?" As an advanced member, Shen Qingqing couldn't get used to Wang Xin's weak behavior, so she taught him a lesson without mercy.

Feng De was embarrassed for a moment. It seemed that this was indeed the case. He should be able to lift 30 kilograms! He himself was not so sure.

Hou Bao pulled at Feng De's clothes, not wanting him to get involved. Shen Qingqing was quite tough, not someone to be trifled with. And Wang Xin was not a pushover either. She said she was weak, but she just lifted it up easily. She probably saw Yuan Zhe passing by, so she deliberately put it down and pretended she couldn't lift it.

Bai Hua, as a fellow villager of Wang Xin and Zheng Xuan, was too embarrassed to remain silent. He looked at them and said softly, "Wang Xin, if you can't carry it, just move slowly. You will eventually have to adapt." After that, he picked up his food and walked away.

Afterwards, Hou Bao took Feng Dela away. Zhang Yun's home was very close to the village office, so he returned home quickly.

After Feng De put the food back into the room, he turned around and walked out the door again.

"Where are you going?" Hou Bao hurriedly grabbed Feng De and asked.

"I'll go help them!" Feng De replied with a confused look on his face, "Isn't that what we agreed on?"

"They don't need your help." Hou Bao let go of Feng De's hand and explained.

"Why? Zheng Xuan and I were both educated youth who went to the countryside together. We should help each other." Feng De felt that it would be fine if Hou Bao didn't help, but he also said such words, which made him a little unhappy.

Hou Bao heard Feng De's tone, which seemed to blame him, so he reluctantly told Feng De about his discovery, but Feng De didn't believe it. He stubbornly decided to go and see what was going on. So he came to the village office and found that it was empty. Feng De walked towards where Wang Xin and the others lived and saw them from a distance. Shen Qingqing walked in front, Zheng Xuan walked in the middle, and Wang Xin walked at the end. She stopped every once in a while, as if she couldn't lift the heavy food. Feng De quickened his pace and walked over, took the food from Wang Xin's hand, and continued to move forward.

"Thank you, Feng De. I didn't expect that among us going to the countryside together, you were the only one willing to help. You are so kind." Wang Xin said softly.

"It's okay, we are all educated youth, and it's our duty to help each other." After Feng De said this, he walked forward, deliberately keeping a certain distance from Wang Xin.

Wang Xin had both hands free, but he kept chattering, and kept moving closer to Feng De. From a distance, it seemed as if the two of them were already touching each other. Feng De quickened his pace and caught up with Zheng Xuan and Shen Qingqing. He picked up the food in Zheng Xuan's hand and quickly passed them. At this moment, he no longer had hands to help Shen Qingqing. He looked at Shen Qingqing apologetically, but Shen Qingqing said, "I can carry it myself. It's a good time to get used to it, so as not to be a drag during the busy farming season in the future."

At this time, the sky is blue, the sun is shining, and the breeze blows the leaves, making a rustling sound. The mountains in the distance appear particularly green under the sunlight, like a beautiful painting. On both sides of the country road, the grass is green, and the wild flowers are blooming, emitting bursts of fragrance. The birds are singing happily on the branches, as if adding vitality and vigor to this quiet countryside.

After a while, Shen Qingqing couldn't help but said, "You shouldn't help them. The food is not heavy. Let them adapt themselves. If you do this, you may not be helping them, but harming them."

Feng De was a little at a loss and didn't know how to respond.

Shen Qingqing felt a little embarrassed seeing him like this.

"I'm not saying you're wrong. I just think that since you've decided to go to the countryside, you should adapt to it. You'll definitely need to do light work like today more often in the future."

Shen Qingqing looked at the golden ears of rice in the distance and continued, "The team leader said that the harvest will begin the day after tomorrow. We are at our busiest time when we arrive, and the labor intensity will be several times higher than it is now. Can you still help them transport food all the time?"
