Chapter 25 Working hard to earn work points

Author: Hua Ming Wanli

If Song Ningyue didn't hang out with Tan Qiming, who was already married to Shen Shujia, Shen Shujia wouldn't report them for being hooligans and give them free rice.

Song Ningyue was reborn this time. If she wanted to take revenge on herself and the Shen family, she would not just sit back and wait for death.

Let’s see who has the last laugh!



The person assigned to the pig farm today was Gu's mother. When she saw Shen Shujia coming, she immediately came over with a smile.

She stretched out her hand to help Shen Shujia put down the basket and frowned: "Oh, it's quite heavy. Why are you cutting so much pigweed again?!"

"Anyway, it's just idle time. I'll cut some points in exchange for some work points." Shen Shujia said with a smile.

Gu's mother wanted to help her pour out the pigweed. The pigweed that was exchanged for work points had to be poured out and inspected. Then she weighed how many kilograms there were and converted them into work points based on the kilograms.

Unexpectedly, she tipped the basket over, and the pigweed in the basket was so compressed that she had to shake the basket to get the pigweed out.

But the backpack was so heavy that Mother Gu couldn't even lift it, let alone lift it to shake it.

Shen Shujia didn't want her to help, but Gu's mother was too enthusiastic. Seeing that she couldn't lift it anymore, she caught up with him and took two steps forward to lift the basket with one hand.

As Shen Shujia carried the basket and shook it twice, the pigweed fell out.

Gu's mother was panting, looking at Shen Shujia with a complex expression, and sighed: "Jiajia, are you too strong?"

Shen Shujia smiled innocently, "No, I can lift it with just a little more strength. I'm just a little stronger than the average girl."

As she spoke, Shen Shujia stretched out her fingers to demonstrate larger movements, which made Gu's mother's mouth twitch unconsciously.

Isn't it just a little bigger?

Mother Gu turned towards the lounge and shouted: "Uncle Qin, someone has sent pigweed."

The person in charge of the pig farm is an old man, he is over sixty years old, a bit old.

I heard that his son died on the battlefield and did not get married and have any grandchildren.

He was alone and looked very pitiful. Since the old man was also literate, the brigade gave him the job of looking after the pig farm.

Ask him to weigh the person who delivers the pig grass in the pig farm and record how many work points he should exchange for it.

He is given five work points every day, which can be considered as enough to support himself.

Hearing someone shouting, Uncle Qin quickly responded.

"Hey, here we come."

As a vicissitudes of voice came, a stooped old man walked out of the lounge.

When I first saw the fresh pigweed on the ground, I couldn't help but praise: "Who cut so much pigweed? It's so fresh!"

Gu's mother pointed at Shen Shujia and said proudly: "She cut it off. This child is very diligent. He has come here three times today, right?"

Shen Shujia smiled and called "Uncle Qin" as a greeting.

As soon as Uncle Qin heard her voice, he straightened his back slightly and looked at her, with a kind smile on his wrinkled face.

"Is it you, a girl? Okay, okay, you are a girl who is better than a boy!"

Uncle Qin praised Shen Shujia repeatedly, and his love for the younger generation was undisguised in his eyes.

"That's right! I don't know which family will be lucky enough to marry such a good wife in the future." Gu's mother agreed with envy in her eyes.

It's not that she doesn't want Shen Shujia to be her daughter-in-law, but she doesn't dare to think about it.

She knew the situation of the Gu family very well. Even ordinary families in the village were unwilling to marry their daughters to the Gu family.

As for the daughter of the Shen family who has been doted on since childhood, it is even more impossible for them to marry Jiajia to her son.

So she is envious, but she is self-aware.

Shen Shujia was so embarrassed that she could only smile to hide her embarrassment.

Seeing that nothing happened to her, Gu's mother went to the pig pen to continue cleaning the pig manure.

Uncle Qin also squatted down and began to check the pigweed. After checking that there was no problem, he started to put it on the scale.

After looking at the weight, Uncle Qin said: "You can exchange one work point here and get two more pounds of pigweed."

"Okay." Shen Shujia nodded, indicating that she already understood.

Uncle Qin took out a yellowed notebook from his arms and wrote down the numbers in the notebook.

Then he put the notebook away and slowly bent down to put the extra pigweed back into Shen Shujia's backpack.

"These pigweeds are eaten by the chickens at home. They are all cut by hard work. You take them back and feed them to the chickens."

Shen Shujia grabbed his hand and said softly: "Uncle Qin, no need, I can just cut these two kilograms of pigweed."

Shen Shujia poured out the grass from the basket and pointed to the place where the pigweed was piled, "I will help you take these pigweed over there."

She has been here many times in the past few days and knows that the pigweed collected by Uncle Qin every day must be put away separately.

After work ends in the evening, the team leader will occasionally come over to check to see if there is any problem with the pigweed and quantity before giving it to the pigs the next day.

"No matter what, I'll do it." Uncle Qin shook his head and refused.

Uncle Qin's rickety back cannot be straightened, and it must be too much for his body to carry so much pigweed.

Shen Shujia didn't listen to him and directly packed up the pigweed and put it in the designated place.

"Uncle Qin, I'm leaving first." Shen Shujia greeted Uncle Qin.

"Okay, okay..." Uncle Qin nodded and waved, and no one saw the tears twinkling in the corners of his eyes.

"What a kind-hearted girl. She will be blessed in the future..."

Uncle Qin murmured to himself and walked slowly back to the lounge.



Shen Shujia saw that it was still early, so she went to cut a basket full of weeds. She didn't go home until the basket could no longer be loaded no matter how heavy the weight was.

When Li Zhenzhu saw her sister-in-law coming back, she excitedly ran over to greet her.

"Sister-in-law, please run slower, you are still pregnant with the baby."

Shen Shujia was so frightened that she quickly put down her backpack and walked towards her.

After getting along with each other for the past few days, Shen Shujia and Li Zhuzhen have become more and more familiar with each other.

Apart from Shen Haishan, Shen Shujia is the person in Li Zhuzhu's heart that she relies on and trusts the most.

Several times, Shen Haishan complained in front of Li Zhuzhu that Shen Shujia assigned her so much homework that his wife had no time to spend with him.

Li Zhuzhu was so angry that she ignored him for the whole day.

He said that Shen Shujia was his sister and everything she did was good to them. But he was not satisfied yet and even complained about Shen Shujia, looking like a wolf!

This directly put Shen Haishan out of control.

He had only heard about how other people's sisters-in-law didn't get along, but he had never heard of any sister-in-law who had the same relationship as sisters.

Shen Haishan was happy about their relationship, but also worried about himself. Now he was almost like an outsider in his wife's heart.

Shen Shujia smiled and let Li Zhuzhu hold her hand and enter the room, "What makes you so excited?"

From the moment Shen Shujia walked in, the smile on Li Zhujia's face never stopped, but she still pretended to be mysterious and looked at Shen Shujia without speaking.

Shen Shujia couldn't guess that she was definitely holding something back.

"Ah...how did you know I had something to say?"
