The contrast was so great that everyone was silent for a while.

Vice-captain Mao, who had just disliked Tao Nanfeng's Jiao Didi, was named Mao Peng. When he saw her strength, he immediately changed his attitude. He completely forgot that he had just said that this girl was a wealthy flower, not a working person. He grinned.

, poked at Xiang Bei: "It's good to be strong. You can work if you are strong. It's not a loss if you give me ten work points."

The teammates excitedly poked their heads around, trying to get close to Tao Nanfeng, but were stopped by Xiang Bei's gaze.

"If you are so strong, you should just come to the road construction team." He strode northward to Tao Nanfeng and handed over the shovel in his hand.

The movement toward the north represented acceptance, and the members of the road construction team all cheered. These men were all straightforward, and no one asked why Tao Nanfeng was so strong, and no one questioned her identity and origins.

"Tao Zhiqing, you are great!"

"Welcome to join our road construction team."

"The road construction team needs educated and strong young people like you."

Tao Nanfeng took the shovel, and her rapidly beating heart finally calmed down. She pursed her lips and said softly: "Thank you."

The corners of Xiang Bei's mouth raised slightly, pulling at the scars on his face, which were twisted and ferocious. His originally handsome and handsome face looked a bit scary.

Xiao Aiyun saw the scars on his face and muttered to herself: You might as well not laugh, it's too scary. He moved his body involuntarily and hid quietly behind Tao Nanfeng.

Mao Peng waved his hand: "Let's get started~"

"Oh..." The members of the road construction team quickly dispersed, picked up the measuring instruments they had just put down, and began to continue surveying and mapping work under the command of Yang Gong. However, they would still peek at Tao Nanfeng from time to time after work.

movement.

Click, click——

In less than half an hour, Tao Nanfeng shoveled off the other half of the large rock stuck in the mountain, and everyone pushed it down the mountain together.

As the rumbling sound echoed in the valley, everyone looked at Tao Nanfeng with eyes filled with admiration.

The mountain breeze brought bursts of coolness, and everyone's eyes were filled with joy. Amidst the coldness and heat, Tao Nanfeng's chest was cleared away, and the corners of his mouth curved, and his eyebrows were smiling, like a bright spring.

Being affirmed, accepted, and able to work with everyone, I finally took the first step to adapt to farm life.

Only after he actually participated in the work of the road construction team did Tao Nanfeng realize the hardship of field work. Even with a straw hat to protect him, the sun burned his back and hurt, and the exposed skin seemed to be burned by fire, and the soil on the ground evaporated.

The hot air made my eyes hurt.

After a long period of repetitive physical labor, the muscles gradually became sore, the arm lifting speed became slower and slower, and the legs struggled to move forward step by step. There was smoke in the throat, the stomach growled with hunger, and the palms of the hand were wrapped in gauze.

Suddenly, a stream of heat surged out of his body and quickly flowed through his limbs, soothing his body's discomfort.

Tao Nanfeng straightened up and looked at his left hand thoughtfully. The heat came from the black tooth mark. Could this be the superpower mentioned in the dream at the end of the world?

"Polala..."

A pheasant flew out of the dense grass on the southern hillside, its long tail feathers shining with colorful light, turning into beautiful colors in the sunlight.

"Oh! Oh! Oh!" The members of the road construction team let out a cheer, put down the instruments in their hands, ducked and ran up the hillside, laughing and catching pheasants.

"Quick, quick, quick! Such a fat pheasant will taste delicious when cooked."

"You go over there, I'll go up here."

"Copy the guy, copy the guy!"

"..."

Tao Nanfeng straightened up and looked at the pheasants flying in front of him. In an instant, all the difficulties were forgotten, and a sentence came to his mind for the first time.

——Like a bird flying on leather, like a feather flying.

When I read this poem describing the magnificence of the palace, I didn't understand why the eaves of the palace were compared to pheasants flying high. Now that I saw it in real life, Tao Nanfeng suddenly understood.

The feathers of the pheasant are extremely beautiful, really beautiful, and the curved arc carries a thrilling sense of power. It is the most appropriate way to describe the magnificent palace.

The men of the road construction team joined the battle and watched as the pheasants were chased by a group of people and flew all over the mountain, while a clear roar of eagles sounded in the air.

"Hoo!" A strong wind blew.

Xiang Bei yelled: "Get down!"

Everyone lowered their heads subconsciously and crouched down. A huge eagle swooped down, grabbed the pheasant with its sharp claws, and flew into the sky.

The sky was filled with shock, and the clouds disappeared in an instant.

The eagle flew away, and the people below stamped their feet and cursed the guy who was stealing food rations.

"Damn it, I was about to be caught. I could improve my life tonight, but I was robbed halfway by this big guy who doesn't have martial ethics."

"It's over, it's like a chicken and a egg..."

"Egg?"

Everyone's eyes lit up and they shouted: "Quick, quick, quick, find the pheasant's nest." Everyone suddenly dispersed and searched for the pheasant's nest in the grass.

"Here, here!"

"One, two, three... I'm so lucky, there are twelve eggs in this clutch!"

"Bring me a straw hat and put the wild eggs in it."

When Tao Nanfeng heard them shouting on the hillside, her eyes lit up with joy. City children had never seen such a battle, pheasants, eagles, pheasants... This half-day was so rich that she could not take it all.

During the lunch break, with the sun above their heads scorching the earth, the members of the road construction team hid in the shade, sat on the ground, and lifted up the blue cloth covering the bamboo basket.

After tidying up a dozen aluminum square lunch boxes and opening the lids, Tao Nanfeng couldn't help but take a sneak peek as the aroma of the food hit his nose.

——This should be the lunch prepared by the members of the road construction team early in the morning. It is not convenient to return home at noon for field work, so they bring food to build the road. Food is scarce now, and rice, oil, and vegetables are all available. I just joined the construction team today.

The road team was unprepared and seemed to be hungry.

"Wow! There are scrambled eggs today."

“Sweet potato rice is so delicious.”

"The fried pepper sauce made by Aunt Xiang goes best with rice, and the fried eggplant is really delicious."

Since setting off from Jiangcheng, Tao Nanfeng has not had a hot meal for four days. Hearing the conversation among the members of the road construction team, Tao Nanfeng lowered his eyes and sat down silently.

Suddenly a pair of big hands and a lunch box appeared in front of me.

Tao Nanfeng raised his head and faced Xiang Bei's face.

Xiang Bei bent over and placed the lunch box in front of her: "You and Xiao Zhiqing share one portion." After saying that, he turned around and left, eating lunch together with other members of the road construction team.

After getting up early in the morning, they only ate a piece of chicken cake brought from home and drank a glass of mountain spring water. Their stomachs were already growling with hunger. Tao Nanfeng and Xiao Aiyun held the lunch boxes together and scooped up a large spoonful with a rice spoon.

Put the rice in your mouth.

Hmm...it's sweet and delicious.

Only those who are very hungry can experience the happiness of eating hot food. Tao Nanfeng felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Xiao Aiyun was so moved that she wanted to cry, and was chirping while eating.

"This is the first time I think sweet potato rice is so delicious. At home, I only thought rice was delicious."

"What kind of chili sauce is this? It has a burnt aroma, which goes well with rice."

"What is this white garlic-like thing? Scrambled eggs are so fragrant..."

The teammates next to him all burst into laughter: "Xiao Zhiqing, the food cooked by Captain Xiang's mother is very delicious. You will know in the future how right it is to be assigned to our road construction team. This one is from the field.

It grows wild and wild, you city people have never seen it."

After finishing the hot meal, Xiao Aiyun found a large cluster of small red fruits in the mixed woods to the north, clusters about the size of a thumb, hanging on the thorn trees. The green leaves set off this wild fruit called "mountain red".

The fruit is juicy and cute.

She is the third of five siblings in Xiao Aiyun's family. She has two powerful older sisters, a willful younger sister, and the youngest is a baby brother. The family's conditions are not good, and she doesn't get to eat anything delicious. See

There were fruits all over the mountains and plains. Xiao Aiyun felt like she had become rich overnight. She ate two of them and stuffed one into Tao Nanfeng's mouth. She was extremely excited.

"Tao Nanfeng, this fruit is sour, sweet and delicious."

"Tao Nanfeng, this fruit is ripe, sweet and delicious, you can eat it."

"Tao Nanfeng..."

Tao Nanfeng's family has good conditions and he can eat seasonal fruits every once in a while, but this was the first time he saw fresh mountain fruits in the wild. He thought they were very fresh and nodded while tasting them.

Seeing that they liked it, the young man from the road construction team took off his straw hat and helped pick two big handfuls: "Take it home and eat it slowly. There are many of these on the mountain. Just be careful when picking them."

When five o'clock arrived in the afternoon, the whistle blew, and the road construction team collectively called it a day.

The young men carried measuring instruments on their backs and walked into the setting sun, singing "The sun sets and the red clouds fly over the western mountains, and the soldiers return to the camp after shooting." They happily surrounded Tao Nanfeng and Xiao Aiyun and returned to the field.

When we arrived at the venue, another dispute broke out.

Luo Xuan looked at the work point record sheet given by the road construction team and said in a tone of voice: "How can these two female educated youths record ten work points? Road construction is physical work, and lesbians can only record seven work points."

Xiao Aiyun lived in the same room with her two sisters and one younger sister. Fights and quarrels were common. When she heard this, she became furious and yelled back with her hands on her hips.

"When assigning tasks, you said that women can hold up half the sky. When collecting work points, you said that building roads is physical work. Women receive equal pay for equal work. This is inconsistent. Are there any leaders like you?"

Luo Xuan didn't expect Xiao Aiyun to be so eloquent. He couldn't speak for a moment and had to slam the table: "What's the use of having a strong mouth? Lesbians only count seven work points. This is the rule of the farm!"

Engineer Yang Xianyong came over to smooth things over: "Director Luo, they did a lot of things today and it was very hard. Ten work points is reasonable."
