Chapter 163 One Month Later 3

Feng Qingxue planned to visit Wang Jiao after finishing her work, and to find out about Wang Jiao's background. However, she didn't know that the work that was supposed to be done in winter was postponed to now. In order not to delay farming and irrigation, everyone went out early and came back late, exhausted every day. Later, many women took part in the work themselves, and it was finished a month later.

Feng Qingxue felt that she was exhausted.

This was the first time in her two lives that she suffered such hardship and fatigue.

In the second half of the month, because there were too many people working, there was not enough food. The staple food changed from three-grain flour rolls to wild vegetable steamed buns, fist-sized sweet potato flour and corn flour steamed buns. Two of them were not enough to fill the stomachs of the exhausted people. They could only drink more wild vegetable soup, so that everyone's stomach was rumbling while working.

Feng Qingxue, who left one of the steamed buns for her sister, relied on carrying people to eat food in the space to fill her stomach and survived.

Did you think you could take a break after finishing the river work? That was too naive.

The farm work of the production brigade officially kicked off.

The snow fell very thick in winter, and the wheat seedlings in the field were moistened and grew particularly vigorously. After the snow melted, a large area of ​​green could be seen. I thought the harvest next year would be good, but who knew that there had not been a drop of rain since the Chinese New Year. Spring rain is as precious as oil, and it is also a worry if it rains too much. But now there is no rain, so won’t the wheat seedlings droop their heads?

Therefore, digging ditches and opening canals for irrigation, and removing weeds growing among the wheat seedlings.

At this time, there were no pesticides or fertilizers, and the crops relied entirely on manure and manual weeding.

Feng Shuanzhu arranged light work for Feng Qingxue, asking her to help Feng Teng record work points while taking care of the two task pigs in the production brigade’s barn. In response to other people’s protests, he directly said that Feng Qingxue only earned six work points a day, which was almost half of everyone else’s, so that no one would disagree. Who doesn’t want to do more work and earn more work points?

The production brigade still owed Feng Qingxue money, and Feng Qingxue didn't lack work points.

The work points earned by everyone were calculated as money when the grain was distributed, and then the money was used to buy grain from the production brigade.

The task pigs were actually quite easy to take care of. They just cooked three meals a day, with feed grain allocated by the production brigade and pig grass cut by the half-grown children to earn work points. The two pigs ate deliciously and rolled in the mud pit after eating.

The pigs ate deliciously, but the smell of the pigpen was stinky, and Feng Qingxue, who loved cleanliness, was almost suffocated to death.

Although it was unbearable, Feng Qingxue still insisted on completing her work and cleaning the pigpen once a day, because she really understood the difficulties of this generation and she had no reason to enjoy comfort.

Feng Teng was an accountant, and he kept work points, so he didn't need Feng Qingxue's help. It was just a formality every day.

That day, Feng Qingxue greeted him in advance, and asked Aunt Feng to help her cook pig food at noon, and then took her sister to visit Wang Jiao at Wang Zhengguo's house.

Feng Qingyun was very reluctant, she had not forgotten what Wang Jiao said in front of her sister.

"Okay, the little girl is quite angry! My cousin seems to have forgotten those things, so don't mention it."

"Maybe she is pretending. I heard from my aunt that my cousin stole the money and things from the bottom of the box of my aunt, maybe she didn't want to return the things, so she pretended to be injured and forgot about it." Feng Qingyun said.

"So let's go and see if she really forgot or pretended."
