Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands

Until the autumn harvest began, Song Shuangshuang still had no idea who had sent her the firewood.

But she didn't have time to think about these things, because the autumn harvest was really...

Too! Tired!

I have to go to work at dawn in the morning and work until almost dark at night, and I have little time to eat and rest.

Everyone brought breakfast with them to the fields, and could only go home for a quick bite at noon. After eating, they couldn’t even lie down to rest, and basically had to go back to work as soon as they put down their chopsticks. Those who were slow to eat would have to eat before the whistle blew, so they had to eat a few mouthfuls and leave.

If you arrive late and are caught, your work points will be deducted.

During the autumn harvest, the maximum work points for men per day were 12 points, and for women they were 10 points.

To put it in modern terms, women are used like men and men are used like animals.

Even though Song Shuangshuang had already adapted to farm work, she was already a bit exhausted after only three days of autumn harvest. She could not work any more after earning 3 work points a day. She would lie down on the kang after work at night. If she was not hungry, she would not get up to cook.

Song Youlin was not much better off. He worked very hard but only earned 10 work points.

Fortunately, I have the moisturizer I drew from the system before. Applying it every night helps a lot and I can still hold the sickle the next day.

That night, while the brother and sister were having dinner, they were still sighing that it was a good thing they had moved out. If they were still in the Youth League Home, not only would they have to cook after work every day, they would also not be able to eat meat every day like they do now.

It’s only been a week and the baby fat on Tan Anjing’s face is gone, and she drags her feet when she goes home after work every day.

The male educated youth in the Youth Farm were not much better off. Without girls to cook for them, the food they cooked was barely edible. The autumn harvest was much harder than usual, and they couldn't stand it after a few days. Feng Aiguo went to Wan Xue to discuss whether they could still eat together.

The result was rejected.

Lu Xiaotao couldn't control her temper and ridiculed Feng Aiguo a few words, feeling very happy.

They didn't realize it some time ago, but now that the autumn harvest has begun, they realize how stupid they were before.

Although Song Shuangshuang and her brother are gone, they can still cook in groups. The amount they need to cook is not as much as before, but it is a lot easier.

It was said before that the male educated youth were usually responsible for carrying water, collecting firewood and hunting game. But the firewood was collected by everyone after the autumn harvest, and they were rarely seen getting game.

So the male educated youths treated them as cooks! They even suspected them of stealing food!

Pooh!

Lu Xiaotao felt happy after saying these words, but Feng Aiguo's face looked very bad. He left a sentence "Let's see what you will do in winter" and went back angrily.

Tan Anjing had never collected firewood before, and was really frightened by what Feng Aiguo said. She was worried that they would have no firewood in the winter.

Lu Xiaotao sneered, turned around and saw Tan Anjing's worried look and comforted her not to worry, as long as she didn't be lazy, there would be enough firewood!

He Feiyang, who had been cooking alone, found a familiar villager in the team before the autumn harvest and discussed giving him a few dollars a month so that he could eat with his family.

In this way, He Feiyang’s three meals a day are solved and he doesn’t have to wait until the last minute to cook.

In a blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed since the autumn harvest. Even though Song Shuangshuang and her brother had meat to eat every day, they had lost a lot of fat on their faces and their faces had become a little darker.

"Youlin, let's cook some more meat tonight, and I'll send some to Tan Anjing tomorrow."

I have seen Tan Anjing several times on my way to work these days. Not only does he look listless, he has also lost a lot of weight. He looks like he could be blown away by a gust of wind.

"Sister, how about calling the female educated youth and He Zhiqing over for dinner? We had a good relationship before, and He Zhiqing has helped us several times."

Song Shuangshuang also remembered that she had said she would treat He Feiyang to a meal on the day of moving, so since he wanted to treat her, they could just go together.

"Okay, you can talk to He Zhiqing later. Let's set it for tomorrow night. After dinner, go to Aunt Wang's house to get some vegetables. I'll cook the meat first."

It would take too long to cook tomorrow, and she couldn't take out several pots at the same time.

Song Shuangshuang did not forget to tell Song Youlin to remember to ask He Zhiqing to bring his own stool.

The table was made and brought here a few days ago. As for the other things, Song Shuangshuang asked Carpenter Guan to make them after the autumn harvest.

On the way back, I happened to meet Tan Anjing. Before I could tell her that I would go to her house for dinner the next day, I saw Tan Anjing's body go limp and she fainted.

Song Shuangshuang was quick to catch Tan Anjing and prevent his head from falling to the ground.

“Quiet, quiet”

After shaking Tan Anjing twice and seeing that she didn't respond, Song Shuangshuang took out a piece of candy from the space and stuffed it into her mouth.

Who cares whether she has hypoglycemia or not, just put it in first.

Song Shuangshuang pinched Tan Anjing's philtrum twice before slowly opening his eyes.

Seeing Song Shuangshuang hugging her, Tan Anjing cried out in grievance.

Song Shuangshuang was a little embarrassed and told the villagers around her that Tan Anjing just had hypoglycemia and it was nothing serious.

After the surrounding villagers dispersed, Song Shuangshuang helped Tan Anjing stand up.

"Why don't you go to my place first?" Her place is closer than the Youth League Home, and she can send Tan Anjing back later.

Tan Anjing sobbed and nodded and said yes.

Song Youlin had gone to look for He Feiyang and had not returned yet. Song Shuangshuang brought Tan Anjing into her room, thinking that she was lucky that she had been careful in her daily life and put away things that should not be there in the space, and only took them out when needed.

Song Shuangshuang asked Tan Anjing to drink some sugar water first, and she would go to cook later, and they would have dinner at her place tonight.

Tan Anjing grabbed Song Shuangshuang who was about to go out and said that she wanted to talk to her.

Seeing that Tan Anjing's eyes were red and she was about to cry, Song Shuangshuang stayed. She would wait for her brother to come back and cook the meal. It wouldn't take a while.

From Tan Anjing's words, we learned that recently the male educated youth always rush to cook before them, even on days when they are not the ones to cook first.

Wan Xue and her friends tried to negotiate with the male educated youth several times but it was useless. Moreover, for some unknown reason, Bai Lingling went back to cook for the male educated youth. Now only the four of them took turns to cook. Every day when they came home, they were so hungry that they could not compete with the male educated youth, so they had to wait in line to cook.

I even had a quarrel with a male educated youth at noon today.

"Shuangshuang, I miss home. I am so tired every day, the food is not good, and I am bullied." Tan Anjing felt more and more aggrieved, and she hugged Song Shuangshuang and started crying.

Song Shuangshuang carried Tan Anjing on her back and told her not to feel bad and that she would be fine after just getting through the autumn harvest. She also thought that maybe she could take a leave to go home for the New Year.

When she heard that she could take leave to go home, Tan Anjing didn't even bother to cry and asked her if it was true.

Song Shuangshuang grinned. She wasn't sure either...

Seeing that Song Shuangshuang couldn't speak, Tan Anjing wiped away her tears and said

"Thank you for comforting me. I just feel uncomfortable because I have no one to talk to during this period. I fainted just now because I was angry with the male educated youth at noon and didn't eat much. I was also hungry after working on the farm all afternoon. I feel much better now that I can talk to you."

Song Shuangshuang thought, it's good to let it go. She was really afraid that Tan Anjing would keep crying because she didn't know how to comfort her.
