"Chen Zhiqing, I heard that you have been living a good life recently. You have bought your own land to grow vegetables and build a house, and you can earn ten work points from work. Are you too unwilling to let people have a way out?"

Lin Mu didn't know how to be jealous of Chen Zixuan's excellence, especially since he had been living and eating in villagers' homes.

I thought there would be something delicious, but I didn’t expect that there was none at all. They were all those chewy vegetables that were hard to swallow.

It completely subverted his imagination. He thought he could take advantage of living with the villagers, but he didn't take advantage of anything.

"After all, we came together. Can you help me when you finish cutting? Please, I feel so tired!"

He spent the whole day yesterday, and because he had so little work to do, many people were unwilling to help him or work with him.

Today I was kicked around with a ball.

Looking at Lin Mu, who is almost paralyzed from exhaustion, with a haggard look on his face, he looks exactly like a different person than when he first arrived.

I didn’t know how arrogant I felt at first!

Now I want to work seriously.

It's just that he didn't do it well. Chen Zixuan actually wanted to push it, but he was worried that he would have a rebellious mentality and he wouldn't do it well.

Fortunately, no one rushed me today.

Otherwise, the knife in your hand will be difficult to use.

"How about we change it?"

"You cut it, and I'll break it off!"

The harvest of forest trees is really too slow.

He has already finished cutting all the crops in this line. Who knows that Lin Mu hasn't caught up yet, and Chen Zixuan doesn't want to wait.

After looking at it, Lin Mu nodded.

It seems that cutting is relatively simple and convenient, but he has more skills in breaking and gathering, so it is good to be able to change it.

After agreeing to change the method, Chen Zixuan followed him, only to realize that it was not impossible for Lin Mu to be tied up.

He even cuts very slowly.

Chen Zixuan caught up quickly, following Lin Mu slowly, waiting for him to continue cutting new ones.

Unexpectedly, the forest trees are still being cut with difficulty.

"Lin Mu, please go faster."

Chen Zixuan couldn't help but urge him again, hoping that this young man could cut it off quickly like a man.

After more than an hour passed slowly like this, the speed of Lin Mu finally became faster and faster.

Harvesting corn is a tricky job. If you don't get it right, it will fall apart. It doesn't just require a lot of strength.

After all, the corn must be tied firmly and not fall apart, and the most important thing is to only use corn straw to tie it, which is easy to break, so you must be careful.

After cutting several lines, Lin Mu finally found the rhythm of swinging the knife. The speed became faster and faster, and his body became more and more itchy.

Because corn leaves have burrs, scraping them will cut the delicate skin, and it will be very itchy if scratched.

Those scars can stay for a long time, as anyone who has experienced autumn harvest knows.

Moreover, in the shady cornfield, we have to worry about poisonous snakes appearing inside, so everyone is cautious.

Chen Zixuan was bored in the back, thinking that this yellow-orange corn would be delicious when roasted.

"Thank you for your hard work today."

The task was finally completed. Lin Mu, who was already exhausted, was very grateful to Chen Zixuan today. After all, he didn't rush himself too much, and no one left. He was willing to wait for so long.

The two of them also changed their work contents.

Otherwise, if I were to be tied up by a clumsy person like myself, I wouldn’t even know how long I would be tied up.

Cutting corn is more suitable for you. You don’t need to think, just follow the rhythm and work hard.

"It's okay, I'm going back to rest after moving."

It’s finally time to get off work at noon.

You have to go back and have a rest, have a meal and then sleep.

After working all morning, I feel very sleepy easily. The most important thing is that Chen Zixuan must take a shower.

The burrs will also cut you when you tie them up. It will probably itch even more when you move them back in the afternoon, and the leaves will be like a saw when they are dry.

On the way, I saw Li Jie coming to accompany me back.

"I'm not going to eat anymore, go and eat by yourself!"

"I just want to go back and take a shower now."

Li Jie nodded, indicating that he understood, and walked separately towards the makeshift canteen set up by everyone.

After Chen Zixuan returned to his cabin, he washed away the corn burrs and dust on his body and his hair was not dry.

But I feel much more refreshed.

After taking a shower, I felt hungry. It was too hot and tired at noon, and I had no appetite at all when I saw the dry steamed buns.

It's better to cook some porridge yourself.

I just happened to have a pack of pickled mustard, so I just made some egg porridge with pickled mustard and ate it. Anyway, it tasted delicious like this.

After eating in the small space manor.

Chen Zixuan planned to take a rest and sleep for an hour so that he would be more energetic when he worked in the afternoon.

Put on short-sleeved shorts and lie quietly on the kang.

My whole body suddenly felt much cooler.

Chen Zixuan felt sleepy just after lying down for a while, and was about to take advantage of this sleepiness to fall deep into sleep.

I heard a knock on the door in a daze, which was a bit strange. Shouldn't everyone be taking a lunch break at this time?

I was a little confused as to why someone was so energetic and came over. I rubbed my eyes, got up and walked over helplessly.

Opening the door, it turned out to be Xie Yang.

If he doesn’t rest, he doesn’t know why he’s here.

Chen Zixuan looked at Xie Yang confused.

Are you going to start work so soon?

It’s not time yet!

Xie Yang, who was standing at the door, saw the confused Chen Zixuan and had no choice but to tell him his purpose.

"Isn't it already the autumn harvest? New grain will be distributed soon. The villagers still have some old grain. We can exchange for some or borrow it. It is easier to borrow now."

Sometimes the work points of these educated youths are relatively small, and there is not enough food at all. Normally, they have to tighten their belts to get by, but few of them are able to save so hard.

Everyone thinks that nothing is good in the countryside. The only good thing is that there is always plenty of food to eat.

"Do you want to exchange it together, or borrow it?"

I thought that our current relationship is relatively good, so it would be nice to have company if we all go together.

When Chen Zixuan heard this, he rubbed his eyes, thought for a while, and took out a bag from the house.

Anyway, grain is cheap in rural areas, so you can buy more fine grain and store it, since you don’t have much inventory in your own space.

There is always not enough to eat if you let go of fine grains.

Chen Zixuan figured that if he had any extra, he could resell them and make a profit on the price difference.

I took the bag and walked out with Xie Yang, and found that when I arrived at the food exchange place, most of them were educated youths, both old and new.

However, there are still more newly arrived educated youths.

The new educated youth had just arrived and had not saved any food.

Especially in the winter in Iceland, everyone has so much idle food, and they don’t know how much food they need to eat, so they have to save enough to rest assured.

Standing in the crowd waiting, Chen Zixuan found that Li Yan had been staring at him, a little strange, what was wrong with her?

After noticing this gaze, Chen Zixuan quickly turned around and pretended not to see her but not to talk to him.

"Chen Zhiqing, I just fell ill this year and accidentally cut my thigh. I don't have much money on me, not enough to exchange for food. Can you...can you lend me some money first?"

Li Yan came over and stood next to Chen Zixuan.

Chen Zixuan was speechless and turned to look at her with her head lowered. She spoke in a small voice, probably out of embarrassment.

But Chen Zixuan doesn’t want to borrow money, especially as a lesbian, and is really worried that unnecessary trouble will occur in the future.

Li Yan looked at Chen Zixuan expectantly.
