10. Go to work
Liu Cuilan said: "Pomegranate, can you afford it?"
Pomegranate smiled and said: "Auntie, it's okay, I can do as much as I can, others earn ten points a day, I can earn one point, it's better than not earning a point." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Most people in the village are very tired of Shi Kailiang pampering his daughter so much that he is not diligent, and now Pomegranate has lost Shi Kailiang's protection, many people are waiting to see how Pomegranate will live in the future, see that she will soon come out to work, and also have the heart of waiting to see her jokes, but Pomegranate so frankly and generously admits his weaknesses, and everyone has put away their thoughts about wanting to see her jokes and laugh at her, leaving only sympathy for her.
Because of Shi Kailiang's overprotection, Pomegranate rarely interacts and contacts with the villagers, so the villagers' impression of Pomegranate is vague, and now Pomegranate suddenly behaves so responsibly, willing to come out to work, and so easily and calmly ridicules herself, the villagers don't think it's strange, they just think that she is still smart, and she has to make a choice in the face of reality.
Shi and Ye Huilan felt that today's pomegranate was unusual, if it was the usual pomegranate, she had been hit by her father's affairs for ten days and a half and couldn't ease up, and it was impossible to do the next day after the funeral, just like no one came out to work, and talked and laughed with everyone.
But the stone didn't go too far to his heart, in his mind, the pomegranate has nothing to do with him, in two days, he will let his father go to the divorce, the pomegranate and this Jiang Hongxiang are in and out of the right way, which is the best reason to withdraw from the marriage, after work today, he plans to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to find Hou Yuanfang and talk to her. After the marriage contract here is handled, I will go to her house to propose. After getting engaged to Hou Yuanfang, their family did not dare to be underestimated in the village, and next year he could go to the army, mix well in the army, and fight for the family.
Shishi's mind was full of Hou Yuanfang and the good days in the future, so he didn't care about what Pomegranate did now.
And Ye Huilan, the purpose of her relationship with Pomegranate is to use Shi Kailiang's influence in this area, so she and her family have also received some shelter because of their relationship with Pomegranate, and now that Shi Kailiang is dead, Ye Huilan doesn't want to be friends with this useless Pomegranate anymore, because she has a decentralized labor re-education worker living in her home, Shi Kailiang was nothing when he was there, and now, Pomegranate still lets this labor re-education person live at home, and she will be implicated sooner or later, so she still stays away from Pomegranate as soon as possible. so as not to be affected yourself.
Pomegranate saw Ye Huilan, as a good friend, Pomegranate greeted her warmly, but Ye Huilan simply stood far away from her after a perfunctory time, Ye Huilan was afraid that when she worked in a group, she would be divided into a group with Pomegranate, Pomegranate would not work, and whoever was in a group with her would suffer.
Pomegranate sensitively noticed Ye Huilan's indifference and avoidance to her, she had contact with her for a day yesterday, she felt that this friend was hypocritical, she didn't know why the original owner wanted to associate with such a person, at this time Ye Huilan's attitude was so obvious, Pomegranate didn't know why she was like this, but because she had a bad impression of this only friend, she didn't have any hope for her, so her attitude, Pomegranate didn't care too much.
Today's task is to repair the dam, and now it is spring, repair the dam, and then boil water from other dams to store water, and after the harvest of Xiaochun, start to release water to soak the fields and plant seedlings.
When they arrived at the dam, the two teams in the village began to divide the work into sections, and the two captains divided the dam into two halves, and each team was divided into more than ten groups under the assignment of the team leader and the accountant, and each team was further subdivided. Some families have a lot of labor, so they ask for a few more sections, and they can earn a few more jobs, and some families are relatives or have good relationships, so they work together, which is efficient. And like Pomegranate and Jiang Hongxiang, no one teams up with them, and the two of them can only do it on their own.
When Jiang Hongxiang came before, no one wanted to team up with him, on the one hand, no one wanted to have anything to do with a politically tainted person like him, on the other hand, he wouldn't do these manual work, and he would suffer a loss by himself in a group, only Shi Kailiang, seeing that he was pitiful, took the initiative to team up with him and teach him to do it.
Now, Jiang Hongxiang and Pomegranate naturally form a team. He taught dried pomegranates like Shi Kailiang taught him back then.
Because the pomegranate came out to work for the first time, Jiang Hongxiang was afraid that she would not be able to bear it, so he only needed a short period of work, and their task was to dig up the part of the soil at the bottom of the dam, and then use a dustpan to pick it up to the top of the dam.
The pomegranate is responsible for digging up the soil, piling it up, and then picking it up in the dustpan, and Jiang Hongxiang is responsible for picking up the soil.
At noon, some people have finished the assigned work one after another, and after the captain and accountant have passed the inspection, they can write down the common score they have earned for their work, and they can go home.
Many people who finished their work and put away their tools easily looked back at the people who were still working there, especially Jiang Hongxiang and Pomegranate, although Pomegranate also gritted his teeth and worked hard, but his body was too weak and he couldn't do it, so they lagged behind others a lot, most of the people had already finished their work, they still had more than half of the work not completed, and the others had finished, and they hadn't finished it.
Xu Zewang, the accountant in charge of acceptance, urged: "You two hurry up, if you can't do it in the future, you will report less." Delay me coming home for dinner. ”
Jiang Hongxiang and Pomegranate lowered their heads and worked silently, both of them involuntarily sped up, held their breath, and finally picked all the soil to the dam.
When they were about to pick up the last load of soil, Xu Zewang left. When they came in the morning, the dam was full of people, and now they were the only two people left.
They packed up their tools and shuffled back with tired steps.
Pomegranate said ashamedly: "Jiang Hongxiang, most of the work today is done by you, you have worked hard!"
Jiang Hongxiang smiled at her, revealing his neat white teeth, "It's nothing, when I teamed up with your father before, he did most of the work, and he had no regrets, and now I can help you, I'm very happy." Jiang Hongxiang's handsome face had a warm expression.
"Don't worry, I won't be so useless all the time, slowly, I'll get used to it." The pomegranate cheered for Jiang Hongxiang and also for himself.
"I believe in you, I was not as good as you when I first came here! Isn't it a workout now? ”
Jiang Hongxiang's understanding and comfort made Pomegranate's mood better, "In the future, the cooking will be mine, and you can do more physical work, the dishes I cook are delicious!" ”
