Scumbag Handbook

"The rain is getting heavier and heavier. I don't think it will stop for a while. Brother Luo, Brother Cheng and the others will definitely come back to find us later, so we will follow them back."

"Row."

Luo Mingxiu didn't object.

"It's raining too much, it's not safe to be near the rocks, let's move a little here."

Seeing that it was raining outside, Xiao Le was afraid that something might happen again, so he dragged Luo Mingxiu to move a few steps to the side of the stone.

Wu Zhiqing saw that he was so careful, and pointed to the heavy rain outside with a smile, "Aside from other things, if there are still crops in the field, there will definitely be landslides under such heavy rain."

"...You put it that way, I think even if there are crops, there is a high possibility of landslides."

Luo Mingxiu hurriedly shouted to the vice-captain who was hiding under the corn stalks opposite, "Vice-captain! Let the folks pay attention, be careful of the landslide!"

The deputy captain responded repeatedly, turning his head and shouting at the villagers who were hiding further away.

With such a heavy rain, even if you shout with all your strength, you don't think it's that loud.

Xiao Le wiped the rain on his face, then sneezed.

"Look at you," Luo Mingxiu was startled, and quickly let him hide inside, "I'm afraid I'll catch a cold, you're already sneezing!"

"Hey, it must be that the quilt was not covered last night."

Xiao Le quibbles.

When Mo Cheng and the others came up to pick them up, it was raining harder, and it was better to put on the coir raincoat than not to wear it. When they arrived at the educated youth office, the educated youth who went back first had already boiled ginger soup.

"drink!"

Luo Mingxiu scooped up a bowl and put it in front of Xiao Le. Xiao Le, who had just changed his clothes, sniffed it, "It's so nosey."

"To keep out the cold, drink quickly."

Luo Mingxiu urged.

Xiao Le sighed, and hurried back to the small side room, but Mo Cheng came in with a bowl of boiling water, closed the door, and took out cold medicine from the system's small backpack, "Take it."

"...I drank ginger soup."

"I'm worried," Mo Cheng pinched his cheek.

In desperation, Xiao Le took the medicine again.

It rained all afternoon and all night, and it was still drizzling when everyone got up the next morning.

"how do you feel?"

Luo Mingxiu was also happy to see Xiao Le's ruddy complexion.

"Very good, strong as a cow!"

Xiao Le raised his arm and shook it.

"Even if the rain stops, I can't do the work."

"Yeah, I just hope that the sun will come out in the afternoon to dry the ground, so that the corn will also be dry."

"Who said it wasn't."

Not only the people in the Educated Youth Institute are looking forward to it, but all the farmers are looking forward to the sun.

As a result, the drizzle didn't take long, and it rained again.

Xiao Le nestled on the bed, listening to Mo Cheng tell ghost stories, while Luo Mingxiu and Liu Yebei read the collection of essays together in the room.

The rest of the educated youth either read in the main room or slept in the room.

It rained intermittently for three days, and the corn that had been moved back to the warehouse was a little moldy, and the team leader and his men fumed it with fire but failed to save it.

Fortunately, the sun came three days later, and within half a day, the ground was very dry.

The big guys moved to work together like ants. After the heavy rain, the corn is not so easy to break, because the wind blows a lot of corn stalks to the ground, and they have to be picked bit by bit.

"Scorekeeper, start a song!"

"That's right, scorekeeper, let's sing and sing, relax and relax!"

The scorekeeper wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, "Then everyone, just listen to me and let's start together! The farmer..."

"Leh, Leh, Leh, Leh, Leh, Leh, pull out your belt and carry a basket on your back..."

Xiao Le listened with a dazed expression. This is not Mandarin, nor is it a complete local dialect.

"This is a song made up by the older generation, and it can be regarded as a feature of this place."

Luo Mingxiu explained in a low voice.

"Can Luo Ge sing?"

Luo Mingxiu blushed, "I can't keep up with the tune of my singing, it's very unpleasant, so I basically don't sing."

Xiao Le chuckled, "Me too."

In the collective singing tune, Xiao Le felt that the more he worked, the more energetic he became.

The sky was blue and the sun was bright, so someone was doing it, singing and singing, and fell to the ground.

"Oh, Comrade Tang Lihua has suffered from heat stroke!"

The person who saw this scene roared, and the scorekeeper took out a bamboo tube from his back basket with ease, pulled out the plug, and fed Tang Lihua a mouthful.

Soon Tang Lihua opened his eyes.

"I, what's wrong with me?"

"Heatstroke, go to the side and rest."

The scorekeeper smiled, "Go ahead, everyone, pay attention to your body, and take a sip if you don't feel well! This is what my uncle made, and it has a miraculous effect on heatstroke!"

It made Xiao Le want to have a drink.

Tang Lihua couldn't keep up with his body, so Liu Yebei himself applied to join Luo Mingxiu's group.

After Liu Yebei came, the results of their group's labor were rattling.

"I can't see how good he is at his job."

Xiao Le was surprised by Luo Mingxiu.

"It was also stimulated by Mo Zhiqing. Look, my arm must be sore at night."

Luo Mingxiu snorted lightly.

Sure enough, Liu Yebei felt uncomfortable even holding chopsticks at night.

"It's careless."

Liu Yebei sighed.

"I'm so grown up, I don't know the seriousness," Luo Mingxiu said to him, and Liu Yebei quickly admitted his mistake.

"Yes, yes, there will be no next time."

Wu Zhiqing and the others didn't think there was anything wrong, but instead made fun of Liu Yebei, "When Xiao Zhiqing first started to exert himself, you still asked him to slow down. Why are you still like this?"

"Isn't it just watching Mo Zhiqing work so hard? I just want to keep up," Liu Yebei hammered his arm, "Mo Zhiqing, don't you feel your arm is sore?"

Mo Cheng who didn't feel anything at all: "....It's okay."

"Cow."

"awesome!"

"Your team's work points must be very high!"

Being praised, Mo Cheng smiled reservedly.

Seeing his smile, Xiao Le couldn't help laughing too. Seeing Xiao Le smiling, Cheng Mo laughed even harder.

Wu Zhiqing, who didn't know what they were laughing at, scratched her head and continued cooking.

It was already five days after harvesting the corn. Everyone in the Educated Youth Institute felt a little pain in their palms or shoulders. Liu Yebei took out safflower oil and wiped it for everyone.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Yebei and Mo Cheng went to the town's meat joint factory to cut up the meat, bought big bones and returned to give everyone a boost.

After all, it won't be long before we will be harvesting rice again.

At noon, I ate fat meat fried with garlic sprouts, and the big bones were stewed all afternoon. At night, I scooped it into a bowl, put some salt, and sprinkled some chopped green onion on it to drink, not to mention how fragrant it was.

During the two days of rest, I didn't go to work in the field, but went to the warehouse to help peel corn kernels. Mo Cheng asked Xiao Le to rest at home, and he went. Liu Yebei couldn't stop Luo Mingxiu, and the two went together .

So when Tang Lihua took the questions to the Educated Youth Institute, only Wu Educated Youth and Xiao Le were there.

Xiao Le spread pancakes in the room, and Wu Zhiqing wrote love poems with pencils in the main room.

"Going to the warehouse?"

Tang Lihua thought they were all resting in the educated youth camp.

"Yes, the sooner you dry it, the sooner you can pay the grain tax and distribute the grain earlier."

Thinking of the taste of corn pot stickers, Wu Zhiqing almost drools.

"Comrade Tang Lihua, how did you understand the reading comprehension I gave you last time?"

Xiao Le came out and disgusted Tang Lihua.

Tang Lihua originally wanted to go to the warehouse, but now he just wants to stay away from Xiao Le, "I left it at home, and I will bring it to you someday."

"Ok."

Xiao Le watched the other party leave in a panic.

"He seems to be afraid of you."

Wu Zhiqing was puzzled.

"He's not afraid of me, but the question I asked," Xiao Le laughed.

Tang Lihua was unable to take out the reading comprehension question until the rice was harvested, because he said that it was used as a match by his illiterate grandma.

Believe it or not, Tang Lihua felt that he had gotten rid of that reading comprehension anyway.

After the rice was harvested, dried and hulled, and the grain tax was paid together with the corn, the team leader held a village meeting.

Every household that was able to go took their benches and went to the dam where the grain was dried.

Sure enough, the team led by Luo Mingxiu ranked among the top three in the village in terms of work points. Everyone received a sweat towel and a porcelain basin.

It can be used to wash your face or something.

Use them together for big jobs.

Then he criticized a few people who were slow in their work and didn't know how to make progress.

Finally, I told everyone that you can use your work points to go to the scorekeeper to get food.

As for how much food you need, it depends on how many points you have.

Xiao Le and Mo Cheng have only been here for half a year, so naturally they don't have as many work points as the others, but they have a lot of food stamps, so they don't lack any.

After exchanging the food they should have, everyone returned to the Educated Youth Office happily with their backpacks on their backs.

Wu Zhiqing also took out his own love poems and read them to everyone. No matter whether Xiao Le was good or not, he clapped his hands very loudly.

Very cooperative.

Wu Zhiqing's face turned red with excitement.

"Roger, what are you doing?"

Seeing Luo Mingxiu sitting at the small table in the room writing, Xiao Le came in curiously and asked.

"I'll write to my uncles and tell them about the situation here, and then I'll ask my grandpa, isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival coming soon by the way? I'll send some food back."

Luo Mingxiu raised his head and said.

"Then I'll go back and write letters to my family."

Xiao Le ran away without even sitting down.

As soon as he went out and said this, everyone picked up their pens and wrote letters to their families, and finally Mo Cheng took everyone's letters to the post office in the town to post.

When I went back, I bought sugar for Xiao Le.

Xiao Le shared it with everyone.

As far as the current personal family situation of the Educated Youth Institute is concerned, Xiao Le and Mo Cheng are the richest, so they are polite and polite, and everyone is not hypocritical. They should eat and help them if they should.

They are all real people.

On Mid-Autumn Festival, Mo Cheng and Liu Yebei cooked a table of dishes, Luo Mingxiu took out peanuts, Wu Zhiqing and the others took out sake, Xiao Le took out melon seeds, and the group sat in the yard like this, eating while admiring the moon.

"Last year's Mid-Autumn Festival did not have such a beautiful big full moon."

"Yeah, it rained in the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and we couldn't see such a beautiful moonlight."

"Brother Luo," Xiao Le's cheeks flushed slightly, but he only drank half a bowl, "I wish you better and better, be happy, happy, healthy, and happy."

Luo Mingxiu's eyes became hot, and he took the initiative to touch the wine bowl with him, "You too."

In the end, Xiao Le was brought back to the room by Mo Cheng, while Wu Zhiqing cried and drank, "I'm not a man, why can't I make a choice!"

Liu Yebei went to help clean up the kitchen, and when he returned to the room, he took out a book of prose and handed it to Luo Mingxiu, "Look, do you like it?"

"When did you buy it again?"

"Just when I went to town two days ago, ahem, you read carefully, and I'll take a shower."

Luo Mingxiu was impressed by Liu Yebei's abnormality. He quickly flipped through the book as a whole, and found a white piece of paper in the middle.

On the paper are words written by Liu Yebei: How lucky I am to meet you, I only wish to stay with you day and night, and never leave.
