Su Xiao: This is not right!
San Dong Tou was two li west of Sanhe Village. San Dong Tou was a small hill. It was said that there was no hill in San Dong Tou thousands of years ago. There was a high mountain dozens of li away from here. One day, the immortals fought and split the three hills. One of them fell next to Sanhe Village. Because of that story, this small hill was called San Dong Tou.
Of course, this was just a legend. When the immortals fought, the people suffered. It was not as simple as splitting the hill. However, this legend had always been there. Everyone just took it as a joke. No one cared whether it was true or not.
The small hill in San Dong Tou had nothing but lush vegetation. It was said that there were people who dug up ginseng there. It was indeed a sacred mountain that was split by the immortals.
Su Xiao and the others only went to the foot of the hill. Hogweed there would soon grow again after a batch was cut. Therefore, the villagers of Sanhe Village loved to go there to cut Hogweed.
San Dong Tou was connected to the land of the members of the production team. When Su Xiao and the others went there, they were naturally seen by the members who were working.
"Look, isn't that Captain Su's daughter, Lanzi?"
The villagers were not the only ones working in the field. There were also the educated youths who came here to cut the line.
The educated youths lived in an abandoned hut. It was far from Su Xiao's house, so it was not often seen.
The educated youths were white and clean. They also had a scholarly aura. Even though they all wore the same clothes as the villagers, there were still differences. Therefore, the girls looked at them differently.
However, Su Xiao did not like to join in the fun of the educated youths. She was also not like the girls in the village who liked the white and clean educated youths. She always liked straightforward men who were powerful and full of manliness, just like her second brother.
Because of this, she met the Tong Gang in the army, her husband in her previous life.
Now that she was reborn, she did not have any thoughts about the young men in the village and the educated youths. It was not that they were not suitable, but that she did not like them.
"She is so beautiful," someone said.
"That's right. She doesn't look like a village girl at all. People would believe that she's a city girl."
"That's right. Sheng Xue is our flower, isn't it? Compared to her, she's just so-so. "
…
There was a lot of discussion among the educated youths. Everyone was just talking about it, but no one took it seriously. However, one of the educated youths had an idea. If he won Su Xiao's heart, would he be able to return to the city as soon as possible?
*
Three River Village was a large village. In fact, there were three major surnames in the village, namely Su, Zhao, and Wang. In addition, there were some other surnames that had fled here in the early years. That was why it was called Three River Village.
Because the village was big, there were more educated youths in Sanhe Village than in other villages. When there were many educated youths, there were also many quarrels. These educated youths gathered together. Today, they would talk about which girl in the Dong family was beautiful. Tomorrow, they would talk about which young man in the Xi family was the best. When it came to gossip, they were not any less reserved than the villagers. They were all ruthless.
As a matter of fact, when they saw Su Xiao and Zhao Xueer appear at the Third Engine Head, they started to talk nonsense and even made some remarks.
The words of the educated youths.
Along with the breeze, they faintly entered the ears of the two people. Su Xiao didn't take it seriously at all, not to mention that she only heard 70% of the conversation.
Zhao Xueer didn't make a sound, as if those words didn't pass by her ears. Only her dim eyes betrayed her mood at this time.
Su Xiao's hand movements were not slow. This was the first time Su Xiao cut Hogweed after her rebirth. At first, she wasn't skilled. After all, she hadn't been in contact with farm work for more than 20 years. It was inevitable that she was a little rusty.
Zhao Xueer looked up at Su Xiao, thinking that he would help her after he finished cutting the Hogweed. However, he opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything. His hands moved faster, only wanting to finish the work at hand as soon as possible.
"Do you need my help?" Just as Su Xiao was struggling with the Hogweed, a voice came to her ears.
Su Xiao didn't pay attention, but Zhao Xueer next to her heard the voice. He looked over and saw a man standing in front of Su Xiao. He was wearing blue cloth work clothes. The most ordinary clothes made him look like a clothes hanger. She recognized him. He was Huang Wei from the educated youths' station.
There were more than ten educated youths in the educated youths' station. There were more men than women, and among the male educated youths, there were only a few who were more outstanding. He Limin, who set out with the grain transport cart in the morning, was one of them. Huang Wei in front of her was also one of them.
The male educated youths in the educated youths' station had always been the object of affection of the unmarried girls in the village. And this Huang Wei, the girls who liked him could line up into a basketball team.
Zhao Xueer opened his mouth and wanted to remind Su Xiao, but he was stopped by Huang Wei's glare. He was scared and trembled. In the end, he didn't say anything to remind Su Xiao.
It didn't take long for Su Xiao to go from being unfamiliar to being familiar with it. After all, she had done farm work before. It was just that after becoming a soldier, she rarely did farm work. Her hands, which were used to holding scalpels, naturally needed some time to adapt to holding a sickle again. After adapting, she naturally became proficient.
Huang Wei quietly looked at Su Xiao's movements. The more he looked, the more he felt that her movements were beautiful. It had a natural charm, which made his heart move. Perhaps, marrying her might not be such a bad thing.
"Do you need my help?" Huang Wei shouted again. His voice was a lot louder.
Su Xiao just saw the man standing in front of her. She slightly frowned, but soon relaxed.
She actually knew this Huang Wei.
The reason why she knew him was because he had pursued her in her previous life. He was as passionate as fire and used his romantic actions to try to move her heart. Later, after she was pestered by Skinny Monkey, he got together with Zhao Xueer.
She didn't know to what extent, but until she joined the army, she didn't hear about him and Zhao Xueer finally having a child. What she knew was that Zhao Xueer later married into the town. Her husband's family was very well-off.
Now, seeing him appear in front of her again, Su Xiao didn't feel happy. Instead, she felt that it was troublesome.
The difference between him and Tong Gang was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Thinking of the Tong Gang, Su Xiao frowned. She was afraid that their marriage in this life would not be the same as in her previous life. In this life, she didn't want to be a widow again.
However, thinking of his untimely death made her heart ache. She still had to find a way to save him.
"No, thank you." Su Xiao declined his help.
Huang Wei didn't give up: "You girls have tender skin. Although this Hogweed is not hard, it will hurt your hands if you hold the sickle for too long. Let me help you."
"Really, no need." Su Xiao's voice became cold.
Huang Wei was a little embarrassed. He stood there and didn't leave. He gritted his teeth and walked over.
Su Xiao was a little annoyed. This Huang Wei obviously didn't want to give up. He wanted to pursue her like in her previous life, but she didn't want to give him a chance. However, Zhao Xueer didn't want to leave so early. Obviously, she had her own plans. This made Su Xiao feel a little helpless, but she really wanted to leave.
"I'm leaving. Are you coming with me?" Su Xiao had already picked up the basket and asked Zhao Xueer casually.
Zhao Xueer looked up at the sky and replied: "I'll cut it for a while more."
Huang Wei wanted to follow her, but on second thought, he felt that this wouldn't work, so he didn't follow her immediately.
After thinking for a while, he walked over to Zhao Xueer. "Comrade Zhao …"
Su Xiao didn't know about Huang Wei's thoughts. When she saw that he didn't follow her, she was relieved. She quickened her pace and didn't dare to delay on the way home.
When she got home, her parents hadn't come back yet. She took out the Hogweed from the basket. Although time was limited and the basket wasn't filled to the brim, it was still half full. The pigs at home were still small and couldn't eat so much in one day. She planned to go to Sandong Tou tomorrow to cut some Hogweed. With today's foundation, tomorrow's speed should be much faster. She thought to herself.
She didn't throw the Hogweed on the ground casually. Instead, she put the grass beside the sickle and began to cut the Hogweed.
After finishing this work, her parents wouldn't have to busy themselves with it when they got home. They were tired from working at the team, so they should rest more when they got home. This work wasn't heavy and she could handle it alone.
After cutting the Hogweed, she looked up at the sky and felt that it was about time for her parents to come back. She went to the kitchen to wash the rice and cook a few more dishes.
In her previous life, although she had been busy with the hospital, after she brought her mother back, her hands, which were used to holding a scalpel, began to wash her hands and cook for her mother.
At that time, Su Xiao's mother was too shocked by Father Su's departure. She also had a fight with Skinny Monkey, so she got Alzheimer's early and couldn't take care of herself. She needed her to take care of her.
As she was cooking, there was a noise from outside the yard, accompanied by voices. She heard clearly that her parents were back.
Her parents must be tired after a day of work. She had to cook something delicious to reward them.
No matter how tired Su Xiao's mother was, she dragged her tired body into the kitchen. Just as she was about to cook, she saw Su Xiao in the kitchen. She was stunned. "Lanzi?"
Su Xiao looked back from the smoke. "Mom, go wash your face. There's still one more dish. It'll be ready soon."
Su Xiao's mother was stunned. She didn't expect her daughter, who didn't do any household chores, to know how to cook. She didn't even notice Su Xiao's father coming in. He nudged her. "What's wrong? Why are you standing here? Is the food ready? "
Su Xiao's mother pointed at Su Xiao, who was busy in the kitchen, and said to Su Xiao's father, "Old Su, am I dreaming? Lanzi is cooking? "
Su Xiao's father was happy when he saw this. He ran over to see Su Xiao finish cooking the last dish and exclaimed, "Lanzi, did you cook all this?"
"Dad, try my cooking. How does it compare to mom's?" Su Xiao picked up a dish with her chopsticks and brought it to Su Xiao's father's mouth.
Su Xiao's father took a bite and nodded repeatedly. "It's amazing. I didn't expect my daughter to be so good at cooking. She's so talented. It's her first time cooking, and she's already as good as a chef."
Su Xiao was overjoyed at Su Xiao's father's praise. She pulled Su Xiao's mother to the dining table and scooped rice for them. She also picked up some food for Su Xiao's mother.
"Mom, try it too. What do you think of my cooking?" She was all smiles and her eyes were sparkling. It was obvious that she was asking for praise.
Su Xiao's mother imitated Su Xiao's father and took a bite. She had planned to praise her daughter no matter how bad it tasted. She didn't expect the dish to be so delicious that she said "good" three times.
Su Xiao's face was smiling like a flower. She was about to say that dinner was ready when she was interrupted by a commotion from next door.
