Jiang Qingyi had already followed Chen Xiaofang and others to the drying yard, and most of the other villagers had also arrived.

Chen Xiaofang reminded them, "Jiang Zhiqing, please stand with us first. I guess the captain will ask you to go up and introduce yourself to everyone later."

Jiang Qingyi responded and stood at the edge.

Most of the villagers saw Jiang Qingyi for the first time.

She is pretty and tall, standing out among the group of weathered educated youth.

Some young men couldn't take their eyes off Jiang Qingyi when they saw her like this.

Jiang Qingyi frowned slightly. She had used magic to conceal her appearance, but she didn't expect that it would still attract other people's attention.

It was also because she knew too little about this era. She thought that if she had darker skin and looked a little rougher, she could fit in better. But she overestimated the conditions of others.

Things are already like this now, she can't possibly change much in front of others, so she doesn't plan to make any more changes.

Soon the team leader and several village cadres arrived. They stood on the protruding platform at the edge of the drying yard.

Zhou Daquan took a step forward and said, "Quiet, everyone, be quiet.

I'm sure everyone knows that there are new educated youths in our brigade. Please come up and introduce yourself to everyone."

Jiang Qingyi felt that this part was somewhat awkward, but she still followed the others onto the stage.

What followed was an impassioned self-introduction.

After that, Zhou Daquan assigned everyone work for today.

Because Jiang Qingyi was tall and looked strong, she was assigned to a group with Su Wenhua to fetch water for irrigation.

After Su Wenhua received the tools, he said, "Jiang Zhiqing, come with me."

Jiang Qingyi asked directly, "Which field are we going to water today?"

"Yes, that whole piece over there."

Jiang Qingyi's expression was a little hard to describe. The area of ​​that piece of land was not too large, and she felt that she could complete it by herself.

Su Wenhua added, "You are a female comrade, so you may not be as strong as me. How about I carry two buckets and you carry one?"

Jiang Qingyi had no intention of taking advantage. "No, no, I'm quite strong. Let's go one by one."

Su Wenhua did not refuse, "Then tell me when you can't lift it anymore."

Jiang Qingyi thought, maybe you can’t carry it anymore but I can still carry on.

But she didn't say it out loud to hurt others. After all, no one would believe her if she said it, and they would think she was bragging.

Jiang Qingyi followed Su Wenhua to the river, and after he put down the water, Jiang Qingyi began to water the corn in the field.

However, the two large buckets of water were not fully poured.

Only then did Jiang Qingyi feel a little difficult.

After watering the plants, Jiang Qingyi trotted to the river, carrying two empty buckets.

Soon she came back with two buckets of water.

Su Wenhua was thinking that Jiang Qingyi was slow so he could rest for a while longer, but she came back before he had even rested for a few minutes.

He had to get up and water the plants and fetch water.

Perhaps because he wanted to save face and was afraid of being outdone by a female comrade, Su Wenhua moved much faster than before.

Jiang Qingyi found this job very easy, but Su Wenhua was not so easy.

The two of them chased each other and finished a whole day's work in just one morning.

After Jiang Qingyi finished pouring the last bucket of water, she stood there and asked Su Wenhua, "Su Zhiqing, we are done. What should we do next?"

Su Wenhua was still gasping for breath. He couldn't believe that he had earned full work points in just one morning.

After he had caught his breath, he said, "We have finished the work assigned for today. Let the scorekeeper check it once and you can go home."

"What about the afternoon?"

"You don't have to work in the afternoon. This is a day's work." Su Wenhua had a complicated expression when he said the second half of the sentence.

Jiang Qingyi was very happy. "That's great. This job doesn't seem to be that difficult."

Hearing Jiang Qingyi say this, Su Wenhua's expression became more complicated. He felt that he would not be able to work with this new educated youth tomorrow.

What kind of nice person can finish a whole day's work in just the morning? It's almost killing me!

She can bear it, but he can't. The body is the capital of revolution.

After Su Wenhua called the scorer Zhou Liming to check, Zhou Liming gave them both full work points and let them go.

Jiang Qingyi was the one who returned the water bucket and shoulder pole. The tool manager was a young girl named Zhou Wenjuan.

When she heard Jiang Qingyi say that she wanted to return the tools, she was shocked and explained angrily, "Jiang Zhiqing, you have to return these tools after you finish the work this afternoon."

Jiang Qingyi touched the tip of her nose. "Su Zhiqing and I have finished today's work. We can rest in the afternoon, so we came to return the tools first."

After hearing what she said, Zhou Wenjuan made a note and put the tools back.

This is the time to get off work.

By the afternoon, the news that the new educated youth Jiang could earn full work points in half a day had spread throughout the village.

But Jiang Qingyi herself didn't know about this.

At lunch, Duan Hongwen asked Su Wenhua curiously, "Su Zhiqing, I heard that you and Jiang Zhiqing finished the work in one morning. Is that true?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone else turned their eyes to Su Wenhua.

Su Wenhua stopped eating and said, "It was Jiang Zhiqing who did a good job. He motivated me, so I was able to finish it so quickly."

What he said was equivalent to giving an accurate answer.

Someone said enviously, "That's great, you two can rest in the afternoon."

Chen Xiaofang and the others did not expect Jiang Qingyi to be so capable. Although they were envious, they had no other thoughts.

Because no matter how well others do, you still have to do your own work.

After they finished their meal, Zhao Meili on the other side started cooking meals for the other people.

Jiang Qingyi was a little surprised that Zhao Meili was cooking again today, and she didn't know how they distributed the food.

Jiang Qingyi had nothing to do in the afternoon, and there was no ox cart coming into the city, so she planned to go for a walk in the mountains to see if she could find anything good.

As for good things, she has plenty in her space.

She was just too bored to stay at the educated youth camp, so she wanted to go out and run around.

While the others were resting, Jiang Qingyi went to the villagers to exchange a small bag of brown sugar for a backpack.

When others went to work, she went up the mountain with her backpack on her back.

During these months of lean season, most villagers don't have enough food to eat, so there is basically nothing edible near the foot of the mountain.

If you want to find good stuff, you need to go deeper.

Once she reaches a place where no one can see her, Jiang Qingyi will not walk on foot obediently.

She hadn't used this spiritual power for a long time and she almost forgot that she was a cultivator.

Jiang Qingyi walked quickly through the forest with dense vegetation.

After walking a long way, she unexpectedly heard some movement.

Jiang Qingyi looked curious, wondering who would come to wander around in the mountains at this time when they should be working.

If she remembered correctly, the captain seemed to say that there were wolves in the mountains.
