Song Sancheng didn’t quite know how to comment at that moment and could only force a smile, “It’s just an ordinary quilt, nothing much to see, doesn’t every household have one?”
“That’s not the case.”
Wu Lei sighed, “What we use at home is still the 4-piece set from when my mom got married, all bright red, bright green, and with huge peonies. I took a picture and showed it to Lili, and she laughed her head off, saying she should also film an episode called ‘Returning to the Village to Become a Country Girl’…”
Perhaps finding Song Sancheng easygoing, Wu Lei just talked more and more.
At this point, Song Sancheng couldn’t help but want to roll his eyes at him.
This kid, with all the bright red and green and giant peonies, did it not keep you warm? If you don’t like it, why don’t you buy your parents a silk one! Such a blockhead…
But since it wasn’t his own child, Song Sancheng didn’t feel right saying it outright, so he just said gruffly, “Have you rested well? If you have, go help cut rice in the fields.”
Wu Lei: …?
He had just put down his luggage, right? When had he rested?
…
Song Tan had been waiting in the fields for nearly 20 minutes before she finally saw Wu Lei arriving leisurely with a sickle in hand.
However, her classmates were considerate. Look, in the patchy field, there was still a section untouched.
The considerate classmates: …
Did they leave it there on purpose? It was clearly because they couldn’t keep up the pace!
By now, they were hot and tired, resting in twos and threes!
Song Tan promptly called out, “Everybody, pick up the pace, it’s almost 10 o’clock, it’ll be too hot to work soon–We only have this small patch left, let’s put in some effort.”
“Plus, I found you some help, my cousin, who is also a novice. You could at least show him the ropes!”
Great!
Wu Lei was shocked as soon as he stepped into the fields–twenty or thirty people were crammed into this small patch, with the cut rice strewn all about, and here he was, standing on the ridge with a sickle, being sized up by everyone as if he were some exotic sight…
How is this just awkward?
Then a bold female classmate called him over from the field, “Hurry up, cousin Tantan, come on! Let’s put in extra effort and aim to finish this small patch before 10 o’clock.”
Wu Lei suddenly felt unsure–
His mom had said he was going to experience farm work at Song Tan’s place for a year, to toughen up and earn the down payment for next year.
Originally, he thought working the fields wouldn’t be a big deal, rise with the sun, and rest with its setting…
But now it seemed, Song Tan’s place wasn’t short of hands at all!
And although these people cut the rice slowly and awkwardly, they looked like they knew what they were doing. As for him, he hadn’t even learned how to hold a sickle–
Hey, who’s the real country kid here?
Wu Lei pursed his lips, now taking it seriously.
After all, with so many people around, he couldn’t lose face, could he?
…
This two-acre field indeed turned out as Song Tan had expected: by 10:00, they were still a little short of finishing. Everyone was both exhausted and hot, many students simply collapsed on the ridges, no longer caring about looking decent or staying clean.
“Back in school, what was it they taught? ‘At noon, hoeing weeds in the sun, sweat dripping onto the earth beneath’ … Geez, look how soaked my sun protection clothes are… this is really tough.”
The two workers still cutting rice in the distance: …
You’re making such a fuss over that small patch and still have the nerve to recite ‘hoeing weeds in the sun’?
Song Tan also thought it was quite the comical sight.
But Wu Lei didn’t see it that way, he simply felt his back ache but, with the thought of Lili supporting him in his heart, he gritted his teeth and didn’t admit to being tired! Even proudly thinking: at least I am a farmer’s child, today is just the first day and it’s also rice cutting season, the initial discomfort is temporary, and in a couple of days, I’ll surely outdo all of them!
Amidst the crowd, Wa Qianqian couldn’t bear it any longer.
She had taken great care with her appearance this morning, the only concession to reason being the knowledge that she’d be harvesting rice in the fields, so she didn’t wear a skirt.
But… she wore a pair of shorts that made her legs look long!
Her long, white, and straight legs were exposed, now covered by a sun-protection shirt down to her ankles.
Still, due to the disheveled look from exhaustion, the carefully applied makeup and powder had become a smeared mess from her wiping.
Now, her face was somewhat of a blur.
“Song Tan!”
She threw the sickle down, puffing up in anger, “Are you doing this on purpose, luring me to harvest rice?! I’m exhausted!”
Everyone saw right through her complaint–did she think Song Tan had intentionally tricked her into rice harvesting? Who did she think she was?
It was clearly an opportunity everyone had eagerly fought for!
Didn’t she see they had hired workers?
Their group…what they were doing to the rice…
The rest of them blushed with embarrassment–they were clearly causing more trouble than help.
…
Oh my! The wealthy Qianqian is tired!
Song Tan hurried to placate her, “Don’t say that, Qianqian. You’ve worked especially hard today; I really admire that!”
“Take a break if you’re tired, don’t wear yourself out–but I think the angle is really good right now. How about you try a little longer, just another 10 minutes, and I’ll shoot a nice video for you, add a filter, how about it?”
“I won’t do it!” Wa Qianqian wasn’t stupid, “I’m exhausted, my back is about to break, and I’ve already helped you harvest so much!”
“And you sly fox! Helping you harvest rice doesn’t mean I forgive you!”
Song Tan thought to herself how naive she was! Calling someone a sly fox…should have gone for the punch with ‘worm’ or ‘cockroach demon’ for a real sting:
“That’s true, thank goodness for you…all of you. Actually, Teacher Xin really shouldn’t have, you’re not only good at harvesting rice but also good-looking, how great it would be to have you as a girlfriend… But since you’re here, wouldn’t it be a pity not to shoot a video to post on your moments or TikTok?”
What a situation!
At first, the classmates had found Wa Qianqian’s words distasteful, but now, as they mulled it over, they too sensed something fishy.
At this moment, they looked at Song Tan with especially peculiar eyes.
And then there was Wa Qianqian’s face–
Pfft!
I mean, how was Song Tan keeping a straight face in front of that smeared makeup?
The rest of them tried to stifle their laughter, worrying at the same time whether their own makeup had smudged, and subsequently took out mirrors to check.
And it’s true, the sweaty bangs needed adjusting before taking more photos… otherwise, it definitely wouldn’t look good.
Wa Qianqian, however, didn’t notice the expressions on everyone’s faces, feeling quite tempted by Song Tan’s words at the moment–
Which is to say, she had suffered so much and sweat profusely today, it would seem a waste not to capture it!
If she just posted a picture with the sickle and rice ears later, wouldn’t others think it was staged?
After all, she was quite attractive, and most people wouldn’t believe she could endure hardship… but she was not that kind of person!
Eventually, she huffed, picked up the sickle again, and said reluctantly, “Fine then, since you put it that way–go ahead and shoot, but make the filter nice, whiten my skin a bit. And the hat, does this straw hat look too tacky?”
“Not tacky at all!”
Song Tan was already raising her phone, “It matches the rice fields perfectly!”
Right, the straw hat, ‘born from the same root’, was blending in perfectly!
Wa Qianqian pursed her lips yet couldn’t help but curve them into a smile in the end.
Then she bent down and continued to harvest the rice.
Seeing her like that, the others felt rather joyous and didn’t have the heart to slack off anymore. After taking some photos, they half-heartedly finished up the small patch that was left.
