Reading Settings
Bai Nuo finished eating and saw Sun Yuxi and Chao Xianhua coming out. They suggested going for a walk nearby to digest their food. Bai Nuo looked down at the dishes and chopsticks that hadn't been washed yet and blinked innocently.
Fang Meng twitched his lips and waved his hand dismissively, "Hurry up and go, hurry up and go, I'll wash myself."
"Second brother, you're so kind! Goodbye, second brother!"
At this moment, they were calling each other "Second Brother, Second Brother" so affectionately and naturally that anyone who didn't know better would think they were very close siblings.
Fang Meng watched the little girl happily run to the two female educated youths, and he couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
This girl is just like she was when she was little. When there's nothing going on, she ignores everyone, but when there's something going on, she grabs someone's clothes and won't let go. It's true... whether she's thinking well or not, her annoying personality is always the same.
Fang Meng looked at the two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the small square table and sighed softly. He resignedly turned around and went to wash the dishes. He had come to the countryside to act as a nanny, not only to look after the old people, but now he also had to look after this little one.
What kind of life does he have!
No, I'll have to find someone to blackmail him later, starting with his older brother and Old Yu.
Bai Nuo and his two companions didn't go through the main gate of the educated youth compound. The educated youth who had just returned from the front yard were busy cooking, so it would be more convenient to go through the back gate of their small courtyard.
The three of them didn't go far, just strolled around the neighborhood, occasionally standing by the roadside to watch the commotion at someone's house, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
"This countryside is pretty good. After dinner, you can come out and have some melon." Chao Xianhua stood under a big tree, craning her neck and looking curiously at the couple fighting in the yard in front of her.
Sun Yuxi chuckled and gave her a sidelong glance: "I hope you can still say that after work tomorrow."
"..."
Oh no, I forgot, I have to start work tomorrow.
What will we do?
Bai Nuo didn't have any particular feelings about working in the fields or doing farm work. As long as the work was assigned fairly and justly, she would obediently accept it and would never cause trouble.
Anyway, she's strong, and in her previous life she helped the teacher in charge of agricultural research on mutated planting to manage the research fields. In addition, because her wood-type ability naturally brings abundant vitality, she's not afraid of damaging her skin even in high temperatures and sun exposure. Moreover, the spring water in her space has a certain restorative effect. With the combination of the two, even if she works in the fields every day, she's still the most beautiful girl in the Seven Waters Brigade.
Of course, she would rather be lazy than work hard. If she didn't want to work one day, she would pester the team leader to give her an easier job. After all, she didn't rely on work points to make a living.
However, at the beginning, you will definitely have to work in the fields with everyone else. It's not good to be independent at the very beginning.
Sun Yuxi recalled carefully and said, "Now is the time for spring plowing. At the beginning of the month, the village should have used oxcarts and horse-drawn carts to plow the fields. Now the work in the fields should be planting and applying the first fertilizer."
"...Fertilizer?" Chao Xianhua was completely taken aback, her face scrunched up. "Is it the kind of fertilizer I'm thinking of?"
"kindness!"
Sun Yuxi's complexion was also not good. Although she had lived in the countryside for several years in her previous life, she still could not stand the smell of artificial fertilizer, which could make people dizzy.
Bai Nuo blinked gently. She suddenly felt that being unconventional and high-profile wasn't such a bad thing, since her family had the means and resources to do so.
"Can I ask the team leader to let me switch jobs? I don't mind if I get fewer work points, my family can support me!" Chao Xianhua didn't want to fertilize at all. She couldn't even stand working in fertilized fields, afraid that she would be pickled.
"They probably won't let us fertilize, will they? Artificial fertilizer is a treasure in the village. We new educated youths don't know how to use it properly, so the brigade probably won't be willing to waste it on us. We might be assigned to the planting area to sow seeds." Sun Yuxi smiled helplessly when she saw that the two of them had changed their expressions.
"Let's take a look tomorrow and find out what kind of work is available in the village. We'll try to pick some jobs that require fewer work points and are easier to do. We'll get the work points based on how much we do, and we won't ask anyone else for help." Sun Yuxi said, pulling one of them by the hand as they walked towards the educated youth compound.
She remembered that the Qishui Brigade had a livestock breeding business, and they could apply to work at the farm. As long as it wasn't cleaning the pigsty, it should be fine.
The three girls strolled slowly toward the educated youth compound. Occasionally, they would greet an elderly woman or auntie who was taking a walk. The villagers of Qishui Brigade had a decent attitude toward the educated youth, a mixture of aloofness and curiosity. Although they looked down on them, they never deliberately bullied them.
Of course, there's no shortage of weirdos and freaks everywhere; they just haven't encountered them yet since they've just arrived. But even if they do, they're not afraid.
When the three of them returned, they didn't go through the back gate of the courtyard, but instead entered through the main gate of the educated youth compound, where they happened to see the educated youth sitting in the courtyard eating.
Apart from Chai Shiming, the rest of the students lived in the dormitory. There were fourteen people in total, with men and women sitting at separate tables. They ate very ordinary coarse grain noodles, wild vegetable porridge, and cold potato salad. The older educated youths were already used to this food, but the newcomers didn't look too good.
Liu Xier sat on the bench with her head slightly lowered. When she heard the noise, she looked up and met Bai Nuo's gaze. Her eyes trembled slightly, and she quickly lowered her head again.
"Hey, Bai Zhiqing, you're back! Have you eaten?" Guo Hui's eyes lit up when he saw Bai Nuo and the other two walk in, and his expression became more eager.
"We've already eaten, you can continue eating."
Sun Yuxi happened to be walking in the middle. After Guo Hui finished speaking, there was a few seconds of silence. He realized that his two girlfriends beside him were just nodding and not saying a word. He could only awkwardly twitch his lips and take the initiative to speak on behalf of the small group.
