Chapter 61 Being Used as a Cover

Zheng Maoshan waved his hand and sent Zheng Xinyue to the beet field. Gao Guilan smiled happily: "Thank you, uncle."

"Call me captain."

Zheng Maoshan glared at her. If he called her uncle in front of the whole team, others would think that he was partial to his family.

"Yes, captain."

Gao Guilan was also a smart person. She immediately called me captain seriously, and then happily came back to find her daughter.

"Xinyue, your master arranged for you to weed the beet field. This is a good job. "

Gao Guilan returned to her daughter and told her in a low voice.

At this time, the work in the countryside was weeding and watering. The men were sent to carry water to irrigate the fields, and the women weeded.

But weeding was not all the same. It was hot and stuffy in the cornfield and people couldn't breathe. Every day, people fainted from the heat.

The most unbearable thing was loneliness. Everyone was bending over to work and couldn't see the people on the left and right. Looking around, there were corn leaves everywhere.

Moreover, the corn leaves were as sharp as blades. If you walked over them one by one, you would inevitably get a few cuts on your face and hands even if you were careful.

In comparison, the beet field was a good place to work. The beets were short and did not block the wind or the sight. Everyone could chat and weed at the same time.

Moreover, the beet field was close to the river. If you were thirsty, you could go there to drink water directly, and you didn't have to bring water from home.

"Auntie, Xinyue." The mother and the daughter were talking! Chen Sili came over and greeted them.

"Sister Sili. "Zheng Xinyue replied with a smile.

Seeing that Chen Sili was wearing a headscarf like herself, and a gray coarse cloth shirt with patches on it, her waist was too fat to be seen, but it was washed very clean.

"Where are you assigned to work? Are we working together?"

Chen Sili asked Zheng Xinyue with a smile, and she seemed very confused, and it was like this for the first time to work in the fields.

"I'm going to weed the beet field."

Zheng Xinyue replied with a smile, and as soon as her voice fell, she attracted many jealous eyes, as if she had taken a big advantage.

"Really? I'm going to the beet field too, it seems that all the girls in the village are assigned there?"

Chen Sili glanced at the jealous eyes of several old women around her, and said to Zheng Xinyue with a smile, which also alleviated everyone's jealousy of Zheng Xinyue.

"Si Li, help me take care of Xinyue, she has never done farm work and doesn't know how to do it. "

Gao Guilan took Chen Sili's hand and entrusted Zheng Xinyue to her. This girl is steady in her work. Just look at what she said just now, she was helping Xinyue out! She has a good impression of her.

"Okay, auntie." Chen Sili agreed with a smile.

"Little sister, your third brother is also carrying water over the beet field. If you are tired, don't do it. Wait for your third brother to get off work and help you."

Zheng Chengbao felt sorry for his sister and was afraid that she would be exhausted, so he came over and whispered to her.

Chen Sili glanced at him and really knew how to care for people.

"Yes, don't do it if you are tired. Let your third brother do it at night. He has plenty of strength."

Gao Guilan immediately told her daughter. She didn't feel sorry for her son, but she felt very sorry for her daughter.

"Xinyue, are you going to the beet field too? "

Wang Jinzhi came over carrying a hoe, secretly glanced at Zheng Chengbao, and asked Zheng Xinyue with a blushing face.

Beside Wang Jinzhi, Zheng Maoshan's daughter Zheng Cuixiang followed. She was the same age as Zheng Xinyue, and they should have been able to play together, but she looked at Zheng Xinyue with a cold look, and did not get closer to Zheng Xinyue because she was a relative and an elder.

"Yes, I'm going to the beet field too." Zheng Xinyue glanced at Wang Jinzhi and asked herself a question, but Wang Jinzhi's eyes kept secretly looking at the third brother, and she felt uncomfortable being used as a cover.

"Let's go! If we dawdle for a while, the whole morning will be over. "
