In addition, the land Zhang Yu was allocated was indeed not very good. Part of it was covered with dense thorny grass. The thorns of these grasses were so thin and long that they hurt even when wearing gloves.
Zhang Yu, who couldn't bear the pricking, originally wanted to clear this area first and wait until it was his turn to use the hoe to clean it up, but he suddenly thought of his space.
Looking around, everyone was busy on their assigned piece of land, and no one looked at him at all.
Using the shield of his body, he collected the grass around him into the space and then released it. In this way, the grass was pulled out in one go without using his hands.
And the speed was very fast. Even if he tried his best to control the speed, he had already finished more than half of the assigned area by noon.
They did not go back to eat at noon, but the lady in charge of their meals brought it to them on the ground.
The food was the same as breakfast, which was fried corn tortillas, plus some fried pickles. A group of them worked all morning, and they were all hungry. They found a puddle, washed their hands casually, and ate happily.
Woke up.
The two of them were probably hungry. Today they didn't complain about the dirty things, dirty things or unclean things. They didn't mind that the food was poor. They all picked up the pancakes and ate them.
After finishing their meal, when Zhang Yu and the others wanted to stand up and continue working, they suddenly grabbed their waists and felt sore and painful.
Looking at their appearance, the old lady said with a smile: "You have never done any work before. This is how it is when you first start working, especially the weeding job. It looks easy, but you have to bend your body for a long time. This is very difficult."
Naturally, your back will be sore after you work. I have medicine there. You can go get it from me after you finish your work in the afternoon and just rub it together and it will be fine."
"Thank you, ma'am."
"It's okay, it's okay, what's the point of being polite about this little thing?" The aunt said and packed up the basket with food and went back.
After eating, Zhang Yu continued to work, and then slowed down a lot, controlling the same progress as everyone else.
At four or five o'clock, Uncle Chen checked their progress and found that they were almost done.
Seeing the work they were doing, Uncle Chen smiled and nodded. Yes, the children assigned to them this year are all good children. They are willing to do the work. There are not so many messy things, but the work they do is also meticulous.
Smiling and smiling, when he saw the other two people, his face suddenly darkened. No matter how good the group was, there would still be two people who were out of place. They didn't do much work all day and even broke the hoe.
He looked again at the areas where they were hoeing, and there were areas here and there. The grass was not hoeed clean at all, and some areas were even bumpy. Uncle Chen couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, there were no crops planted in the fields at this time, otherwise he would
I don’t know whether those two people hoeed too much grass or damaged too many crops.
Seeing Uncle Chen coming over with a smile, Zhang Yu and the others were about to go up to greet him, but they were startled when they saw his face suddenly turned dark.
For a while, they didn't know whether they should come up to say hello, but later they thought that their work today was pretty good. Although they worked a little slower because they had never done any work before, they had completed the tasks assigned to them today.
, so it shouldn’t be a black face to them, right?
They followed Uncle Chen's line of sight and saw two people wielding hoes for a long time. They suddenly understood that this black face was definitely not meant for them.
But looking at the way they were working, everyone felt a little lucky. Fortunately, in the morning, those two people had grabbed the hoes. They felt that Zhang Yu and the others were taking advantage of them by working together, so they made a fuss about getting the hoe today.
The work they did was divided well, and they also made it known that they were doing their own work, and it was impossible for the two of them to help others do it.
Thinking about it now, the division was good and wonderful. Fortunately, they were separated. Otherwise, they would have worked so hard to finish their own work, and they would have had to do the work for the two of them.
At this time, a boy who looked quite honest stood up and was about to walk towards the two of them. He was stopped by one of the two remaining girls, who must be familiar with him, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I think they haven't finished yet. Let me help. After all, we are here together."
The girl looked at him with hatred, gritted her teeth and said: "Are you stupid? Are you stupid? Haven't you seen that people don't look down on you at all? Besides, we have already finished all the places we divided with our hands.
, the two of them took up two hoes and still couldn't finish it, probably thinking that someone would do it."
"But..." The boy thought that they were classmates in the same class after all, but he still hesitated.
"Stop it, just clean up the weeds we have weeded and carry them out." The girl arranged the work for him, and he was afraid that one of them wouldn't pay attention, so he would help those two people.
At this time, Uncle Chen also said to them: "I think you are almost busy. Let's clean up the grass in the field and then go back."
"What about them, are they going back together?" The honest boy asked casually as he didn't know how to read people's faces.
Uncle Chen's face, which had just softened, turned dark again. He gritted his teeth and said, "What are they going to do? When will they finish and when will they go back?"
Obviously, the two men not only failed to help, but broke the farm tools, and he also heard about what happened during the meal yesterday, all this made Uncle Chen very unhappy.
Seeing them leaving, the two people also packed up and left. They had just taken two steps when Uncle Chen walked over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Pack your things and get off to work!" A woman said as expected.
"After work, what kind of work?"
"Aren't they all off work?"
"That's because other people's work is done. Have you finished your work? When will you finish and go back?" Uncle Chen was almost very angry with the two of them.
Looking at Uncle Chen's dark face, the two of them did not dare to make trouble anymore, so they could only put back the things they had packed and continue to do the rest of the work.
Seeing the backs of a group of people leaving work, the two of them were very angry now. They didn't do much work that day. They just thought that they came together and were considered a group. They couldn't ignore themselves. They didn't dare to do it by themselves anyway.
Do more or do less. In the end, someone will help you finish it.
Then why were they working so hard? When they saw Uncle Chen letting them all go, they were a little dumbfounded. They were all gone, what would the two of them do?
During this period, they also wanted to sneak away while Uncle Chen was not paying attention. Uncle Chen seemed to be on a collision course with them today, staring at them without blinking.
They thought of just doing the work casually, just hoeing the big grass. Uncle Chen just watched them sneak around, and then asked them to go back to work when they were done.
