In front of the tea field, many tea pickers had already gathered, and there was a long queue, all of them were red by the scorching sun, and their faces were still full of cheerful smiles.

In the shade of the vestibule, a large pole was placed, and several people were busy. One person is responsible for weighing, one person is taking notes, and the other is busy pouring the tea out of the back basket and drying and withering.

Su Xintang and the others also mixed in the crowd, listening to the constant sound of disputes coming from the front.

"This tea green is not good, at most the last class, a total of 48 catties of tea green, 8 points of work."

"What? Only 8 points? You're too black-hearted, I've picked 48 catties of tea......"

"I'm embarrassed, look at what you've picked? The old leaves, the remaining leaves, are completely messed up, what can such tea green be used for? In addition to making tea foam and brick tea, what else can you do? Hum! I think I've given you 8 points. ”

"Yes...... It can't be that little, right? Even if it's brick tea, it's more than that. At the very least, you have to give me 20 points, you can't be a man without conscience! ”

"Up to 15 points, do you want it?"

Picking tea in half a day earned 15 points, still not satisfied?

Bookkeeping is obviously not good-looking.

Xu is bookkeeper's face was ugly, and he was completely unsentimental, and the tea picker muttered for a long time, and finally compromised.

"Sister Su, look!"

Xiang Maomao secretly pulled Su Xintang's trouser leg, and pouted at the tea picker who scolded and left: "That woman picks so much tea every day, and she doesn't move so fast at this point." Every time the secretary would reprimand her, she didn't change it every time, and did it the next day. ”

Looking at the woman who was busy pouring out the withered tea, Su Xintang knew that her surname was Zhou and her name was Zhou Siyu. He is only two years older than himself, not tall, but he is very quick in his hands. Especially for tea picking, she can always get up earlier than others and leave later than others, even if the sun is bright at noon, she will hide in the shade to pick tea, refusing to rest for a moment.

Su Xintang knew that later, this diligent little girl took advantage of the spring breeze of reform and opening up to walk out of the mountains and change her life.

In the end, she also became one of her partners in her last life.

Seeing her again, she was excited. It's just that the current environment is not suitable, so she has to forcibly suppress the excitement in her heart.

"Sister Su, Sister Su! What are you thinking? It's your turn! ”

Xiang Maomao stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Su Xintang's eyes, and finally recalled Su Xintang's thoughts that had already flown away.

Su Xintang came late in the morning, and it was the first day to pick tea, and when he was weighed, he only had eight catties and two taels of tea green, and he remembered a medium tea green, in exchange for 4 points.

It's only 4 cents, calculated according to 10 cents and 3 cents, that is to say, she worked under the scorching sun all morning, and she actually earned a dime and two cents?

One dime two!

What can you buy for this penny?

In this year, a piece of soap costs 1 cent and 4 cents, half a piece (that is) 7 cents, a pack of shampoo 4 cents, a pencil 3 cents, and a "Chinese brand" pencil is 1 cent and a notebook is 7 cents. The "friendship card", "peony card", "purple and red card" and clam oil used to wipe the face are 1 cent a box. Shoelaces 2 points, toilet paper 1 mao 5 rolls, women's menstrual strip toilet paper 1 mao 7 pack......

Looking at it this way, in this era, a dime and two are not less. But the spring breeze of reform and opening up will soon blow the green earth, and at that time, what can this Mao Er do?

Besides, she still has a "huge amount of money" of dozens of yuan in her arms, and the huge gap in her heart still makes her a little apprehensive.

Xiao Tianye moved quickly, and with Xiang Maomao's help, the mother and son actually picked 23 catties and 6 taels of tea. The bookkeeping was very simple, and he directly gave the assessment of the first-class tea green, and calculated 12 points for her, but Xiao Tianye was happy!

Ignoring the sweat, she hurriedly poured out the tea green and scattered it to wither, "I really didn't expect that I actually picked two and a half catties more today." It's all a credit to my family to Mao Mao, it's so good! When you get home, your mother will make something to eat for you. ”

"Mom, you said it yourself, but don't forget it!"

Xiang Maomao hurriedly answered.

"Can't forget, you little glutton."

Xiao Tianye shook his head funny, dried the tea, and pulled Su Xintang to the shade, "I see that you just came here today, I'm afraid you didn't bring lunch, so why don't you eat with us." ”

These tea pickers go up the mountain to pick tea, and naturally they are reluctant to spend more money, and most of them will bring their own food from home. The tea farm is not responsible for providing lunch, but there is no shortage of tea made from tea foam.

"Isn't that okay? If I eat it, you're afraid it won't be enough. ”

"I've brought a lot of bread, come quickly."

Xiao Tianye couldn't help but drag her to the corner, and took out the cakes he brought and gave them to Su Xintang.

Xiang Maomao had already sensibly taken the kettle and filled it with tea.

"Sister Su, here you go!"

His big sparkling eyes were full of hope, and he winked at her playfully.

Seeing that Su Xintang inexplicably remembered him who was stupid in his previous life, his heart suddenly became soft!

In his previous life, a few years after he was stupid, Xiao Tianye died mysteriously, and not long after, Xiang Maomao's body was also found in the pond. Some people speculate that it should be a slippery road on a rainy day, and he accidentally fell into the pond and died in vain.

What a clever child! It's a pity that there is such a tragic ending.

"Mao Mao, you eat too, eat quickly!"

She hurriedly divided half of the bread in her hand and gave it to Xiang Maomao.

"You eat, I still have it here." Xiao Tianye hurriedly took out a few more cakes.

These cakes are not a good thing, they are all made with elm bark mixed with wild vegetables and sorghum. Su Xintang was already hungry, so he picked up the cake and took a big bite. Xu is mood is different, maybe she is really hungry today, she actually feels that the cake in her hand is extraordinarily sweet.

With the tea brewed from the tea foam, she took a bite of cake and a sip of tea, and she was very happy to eat.

Seeing that she liked to eat, Xiao Tianye secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and also picked up the cake and ate it, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled.

Zhou Siyu also dried the tea green, took a big bowl of tea soup, came to the shade next to the three of them, opened the lunch box he brought and ate it quickly.

Although the food in her bowl is not good, there is still rice in the bowl, although there is very little rice, most of it is sweet potato wedges. It is topped with a layer of chopped spicy cabbage, which is very appetizing when you look at it.

The adult can barely retract his gaze, but let Xiang Maomao's eyes look straight!

It's actually white rice, and it looks delicious......

"Want to eat?"

Su Xintang shaved his little nose and also recalled his senses. Seeing that Xiang Maomao nodded desperately, she smiled: "Don't worry, you work hard to pick tea in the afternoon, and when you go back in the evening, Sister Su will make you white rice to eat." Do you think it's good? ”

Nodding vigorously at Maomao.

"Good! Sister Su, Sister Su, you have to talk about it! ”
