Aunt Zhou understood what Lu Jinzhi meant, and instructed him that there was still a light job in the village, but the centimeters were low. Because of the low centimeter, there are fewer people who are willing to do this work, as long as you don't dislike it, you can still fight for it. Lu Jinzhi nodded and thanked Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou still wants to keep Tong Yan and them to eat, Tong Yan naturally can't do this, the rations of every household are tight, how can it be good to eat at other people's homes.

After leaving Aunt Zhou's house, Tong Yan was still a little worried about going to work tomorrow. When I think of the days when I was doing farm work, I was fooled by. Lu Jinzhi saw Tong Yan's worries and comforted her a few words. Tong Yan is also adjusting her mentality, since she is here, she naturally has to endure hardships. So in the evening, Tong Yan still made a few hard dishes, which was called beautiful, and prepared for tomorrow's labor.

At night, Tong Yan couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning on the kang, Lu Jinzhi hugged her and coaxed her for a long time, but she still didn't sleep, and finally Lu Jinzhi and Tong Yan did a good exercise, and Tong Yan was so tired that she fell asleep.

Early in the morning, Lu Jinzhi dragged Tong Yan out of the quilt, Tong Yan changed her clothes, and complained to Lu Jinzhi: "I have slept on the kang for a few days, and I am still not used to it. Lu Jinzhi touched Tong Yan's black hair: "Are you not used to it?" "Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, it is difficult to spread thicker, it is difficult to die of heat. Tong Yan just complained a little, and knew in her heart that this is the environment now, and there is only patience.

After breakfast, Tong Yan took out two kettles, filled them with water, and went to work with Lu Jinzhi. First of all, you have to gather at the barnyard in the village, wait for the village party secretary to assign work, and then go to work. Tong Yan's place is still a long way from the barnyard, and it takes seven or eight minutes to walk.

At this time, people arrived one after another, and when they saw Tong Yan and Lu Jinzhi, they couldn't help but whisper. Before assigning the work, Zhou Yonghai officially introduced Lu Jinzhi and Tong Yan and arranged for them to learn farm work with the villagers. Lu Jinzhi is a strong laborer, and the work naturally assigned is heavier, and the work arranged for Tong Yan is watering, which is considered an easy job, and it is generally assigned to women who are half old or frail.

Tong Yan didn't mind at all, she didn't plan to be a model worker, so the lighter the work, the better. Zhou Yonghai was still fiddling with someone to take Tong Yan, Sister Liu took the initiative to raise her hand, she was willing to be in a group with Tong Yan. Zhou Yonghai nodded, and asked Tong Yan to follow Sister Liu to study hard. Tong Yan walked up to Sister Liu and smiled gratefully at her.

Tong Yan followed Sister Liu to the field, Sister Liu went to fetch water, and Tong Yan was responsible for watering. The two worked well together, and everyone was immersed in their work. It didn't take long for Tong Yan to feel that this job was not easy to do, the sun was shining, the skin of the corn leaf thorns was a little painful, and Tong Yan's head began to sweat. Sister Liu saw that Tong Yan's face was red, and asked her to take a hat and put it on before she worked in the afternoon, so that she could shade the sun, and remember to wear long-sleeved clothes, corn is easy to have insects, and long sleeves can protect the skin. When Tong Yan heard this, the goosebumps on her arms were about to rise, she was the most afraid of insects. Looking at other people's dresses, Tong Yan deeply understood that she was really inexperienced, and those peasant women were all tightly wrapped.

When they returned home at noon, both of them were embarrassed, looked at each other, and both smiled. Lu Jinzhi worked all morning, drank all the water, and not only sighed: he still underestimated these farm work. Tong Yan found a lot of things to come out, at least to protect herself, she didn't want to be bitten by insects. Lu Jinzhi didn't care much about this, Tong Yan had to put a straw hat on his head, and Lu Jinzhi reluctantly put it on in order to make Tong Yan happy.

After a day's work, the two returned home with back pain, and Lao Qian boiled the water in advance, and asked the two to wash first, and then go to cook when they were relieved. During the meal, Tong Yan asked Lu Jinzhi: "Captain Zhou was not bad, if I was asked to remove the weeds, I guess I wouldn't even be able to cook." Lu Jinzhi stopped holding the vegetables and asked, "Do you think Zhou Yonghai is taking care of you?" Tong Yan looked at Lu Jinzhi's face and immediately reacted: "You told him." ”

"That bottle of wine and fifteen pounds of food stamps were not given for nothing. Tong Yan didn't expect Lu Jinzhi to take things to give her the back door, looking at Lu Jinzhi, her heart was warm, and she asked: "Then why do you still arrange heavy work?" Lu Jinzhi couldn't help but knock her head: "Stupid or not, we just came, and we came to work, and we all arrange easy work, which will inevitably provoke people." I'm a man, it's okay to do more, how can you be the same as me. ”

Tong Yan added a piece of chopsticks and put it into Lu Jinzhi's bowl, giving Lu Jinzhi a sweet smile.

After working like this for a few days, Lu Jinzhi gradually got used to it, Tong Yan looked at Lu Jinzhi's originally slender and white hands, and felt distressed because of the labor grinding out several blisters. As soon as he helped him pick up the blisters, he heard a man's voice calling Lu Jinzhi at the gate of the courtyard. Lu Jinzhi didn't care about taking medicine, so he went out directly, and when he saw someone coming, Lu Jinzhi walked over happily and hammered him: "Jiang Han, why are you here?"

Jiang Han replied to Lu Jin: "I heard that my sister-in-law is also here, so I'll recognize someone." Tong Yan followed Lu Jinzhi out, and when she heard this, she knew that this person was Lu Jinzhi's friend, and beckoned Jiang Han into the house.

Jiang Han greeted Tong Yan with a hippie smile, but he didn't go in, and turned sideways to expose the person hiding behind him. Tong Yan was pleasantly surprised when she saw the person, and rushed over directly, hugged the person, and when the two met, they laughed and danced, and the joy was beyond words, and the person who came was Ji Ning.

The four of them were immersed in the joy of reunion, and as soon as they sat down, several of them told their recent situation. Jiang Han now has a position in the town, and he can be regarded as having a firm foothold. Ji Ning came here to be an educated youth, and Lu Jinzhi asked Jiang Han to take care of Ji Ning before, so when Ji Ning arrived here, he went to find Jiang Han, and under Jiang Han's care, he worked as a substitute teacher in the town primary school, and now he has stabilized.

The four of them were chatting happily, and another person came to the door, it was the captain Zhou Yonghai.

Zhou Yonghai was busy in the village office, and a villager reported to him that a jeep had come to the village. Zhou Yonghai knew that the leader who came in a jeep must have come over, but he did not receive a notice! He did not dare to slack off, so he ran out in a hurry, and waited for a long time without seeing anyone! Some villagers told him that the car had gone to a temporary residence at the end of the village. Zhou Yonghai hurriedly ran to the temporary residence and saw a car parked at the door. He barely breathed his breath before he walked in.

Zhou Yonghai saw Jiang Han, looked courteous, and hurriedly went up to say hello: "Vice Minister Jiang, why are you here?" Jiang Han's face straightened, stood up, and patted his clothes: "Captain Zhou, I came to visit my friends today, it was purely a private meeting, and I was embarrassed to alarm everyone." Zhou Yonghai glanced at Lu Jinzhi: "Vice Minister Jiang, this is your friend, Comrade Lu didn't say this, it turns out that everyone is an acquaintance." Lu Jinzhi also stood up, and the three of them exchanged pleasantries, and after chatting a few words, Zhou Yonghai invited Jiang Han and Lu Jinzhi to go to the house for dinner. How could Jiang Han go, politely declined. Zhou Yonghai had no choice but to leave, and greeted Lu Jinzhi politely before leaving. Lu Jinzhi and Jiang Han glanced at each other and understood each other.

Tong Yan wanted to stay with Ji Ning for dinner, so she took Ji Ning to the kitchen and chatted while cooking. Ji Ning talked about Wang Li, Wang Li was with Liu Zhonghua, the two got along well, and it is estimated that they can succeed. Li Fangfang was about to give birth, and her mother-in-law didn't let her go to work anymore, and now she is bored at home every day, writing letters to Ji Ning to complain that the life of pregnant women is really difficult.

After talking for a while, Ji Ning asked Tong Yan: "The environment here is difficult, can you adapt to it?" Tong Yan asked Ji Ning rhetorically, Ji Ning touched his shortened hair, and said: "When I first came, I didn't get used to it, I cried secretly a few times, and then I was transferred to the town, and my life was better." Now that I'm used to it, I think it's pretty good. Tong Yan looked at Ji Ning's face and knew that she was telling the truth. Tong Yan didn't want Ji Ning to worry about her, she only said that with Lu Jinzhi's care, everything was fine.

After Tong Yan and Ji Ning chatted for a few words, she changed the topic, glanced at Ji Ning, and asked her: "You have a good relationship with Jiang Han?!" Ji Ning glanced at her with disgust: "I don't have much thought about it now, I just teach with peace of mind, and I still have to go back to Lin'an Town when I have the opportunity." ”

Tong Yan was willing to be fooled by her: "I see that you get along well, are you really not tempted?" Ji Ning thought for a while before saying: "When I left, the one in your family gave me a letter and asked me to take the letter to Jiang Han, and I went." That's how we got to know each other, and then he transferred me to the school to teach. Otherwise, I would have been working like other educated youths now. He did help me in this matter, and I also remember the goodness of others, but I think this person is quite kind, and the others are really not. ”

Tong Yan listened, looked at Ji Ning's clear eyes, and estimated that this girl didn't have any ideas, so she didn't say anything anymore. The two burned a table of dishes, Jiang Han read it, and teased Lu Jinzhi: "Brother is still worried that you are not doing well, but now it seems that the little life is not bad." Lu Jinzhi replied to him: "You are better than me now, and I am now a real working person." Tong Yan listened to their quarrels, and she was not idle, so she took some food and prepared to send it to the old money. Ji Ning also followed, and the two chatted with Lao Qian for a while before coming back.

The four of them had a lively meal, and Lu Jinzhi and Tong Yan sent Jiang Han and Ji Ning away. Xu is the joy of meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign country, Tong Yan couldn't sleep all the time, and chatted with Lu Jinzhi about today's events. Lu Jinzhi's tone was obviously a little relaxed, Tong Yanxian felt it, and asked Lu Jinzhi.

Lu Jinzhi took Tong Yan in his arms, kissed her gently, and said mysteriously: "I'll see tomorrow." Tong Yan sat up with a grunt and pulled Lu Jinzhi, unless he explained to himself, otherwise he would not be allowed to sleep.
