The Outsider Who Will Be

After being surprised, Xu Mei put down the scimitar in her hand and stood up to meet several people.

After working in the bamboo forest for a long time, I was covered with mud on my body and my hair was also curled up by the bamboo leaves and branches.

But the woman did not look cramped or nervous at all, with a smile on her face, and greeted several people generously, "Why are you here?"

Cao Zhibang replied with a smile, "Zhizhi said you were digging bamboo shoots on the mountain, and it was nothing to do anyway, so come and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Xu Mei ordered Su Zhi, "Zhizhi, you can take Uncle Cao to the front and they will take a walk."

After saying that, he looked at Cao Zhibang with apologies, "Mr. Cao, I still want to peel bamboo shoots. I don't have time to greet you. Let Zhizhi take you to the front and take a look."

Looking at the fresh bamboo shoots piled up in a hill behind Xu Mei, Cao Zhibang said in surprise: "You peel so many of them alone?"

"Just peel off the old shell outside and you'll be able to peel it up soon."

After hearing this, Cao Zhibang rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll help you."

Hearing this, not only Xu Mei and Su Zhi were stunned, but even the assistant and driver who accompanied him looked at their boss in surprise.

The next second, the assistant and the driver were not surprised.

"You can help peel bamboo shoots together."

Driver and Assistant: “…”

Xu Mei wanted to stop him, but she couldn't stop him at all.

Seeing that Cao Zhibang reached out and was about to get the bamboo shoots, Xu Mei grabbed him quickly, "You can't use your hands directly, as there are hairs on the bamboo shells, and you will prick your hands."

Cao Zhibang looked down and was shook by Xu Mei.

Maybe because she has been doing things, women's hands are very hot. Even if they are separated by a layer of velvet gloves, they can still feel the soft force that belongs to women.

Cao Zhibang's mood was still rippling, Xu Mei had already relaxed him, and took out a pair of rubber gloves and velvet gloves from her hand-in-hand tool kit.

And he taught him how to wear it, "Wear rubber gloves on the inside can be waterproof and wool-proof, and wear velvet gloves on the outside can keep warm and prevent the hands from being scratched by bamboo shoots."

Cao Zhibang praised with a smile: "This is the wisdom of the working people."

Xu Mei was funny, "What's this?"

Looking at Cao Zhibang and the other two who were squatting in front of Xu Mei to help peel the shell, Su Zhi understood why the boss had to bring his assistant and driver with him when he went out.

It turned out to be the one who brought the coolies.

After peeling a shell, Cao Zhibang turned his head and saw Su Zhi standing aside in a daze, and said with a smile: "Zhizhi, it's cold on the mountain, you go home and have fun."

Su Zhi: "..."

You're really gone.

When he returned to the yard, he saw that Su Zhi was the only one who came back, Lu Lin asked casually, "Uncle Cao and the others are gone?"

"No, on the mountain."

"oh."

Lu Lin didn't think much about it, thinking that Cao Zhibang was wandering on the mountain.

It is rare for people in the city to come to the countryside. I feel strange when I see a nest of weeds, not to mention that there is a large bamboo forest and bamboo shoots all over the ground in Xiaoqing Mountains.

If it weren't for the lack of physical strength, Lu Lin would have wanted to go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots.

In the evening, Lu Lin took the six bamboo shoots she dug and a bag of bamboo shoots prepared by Xu Mei and happily went home.

It was dark early in winter. It was just after 6 o'clock, and it was getting dark. Xu Mei had not yet finished work, and even Cao Zhibang did not come back.

Su Zhi changed into water shoes and was about to go to the back mountain to take a look. As soon as he went out, he saw Xu Mei leading Cao Zhibang and others back.

"mom."

Seeing the water shoes on her feet, Xu Mei whispered: "Why are you running up the mountain when it's dark?"

"I originally wanted to ask you to finish work and go home, but I can't finish digging today and dig it tomorrow."

Cao Zhibang agreed, "This is the reason. Doing farm work is the same as working. You can't finish it. You can't finish it today and continue to do it tomorrow."
