Chapter 8
"However, I also want to earn some money for the family."

Ever since she knew that men and women are equal in this new era, women can also hold up half the sky, and go out to earn money in exchange for food, Su Yao began to think about it.

Apart from the two children in the family, she is the only adult who does not earn work points, and eats the best food, which makes Su Yao feel a little guilty.

But she didn't know what to do, so she followed the habit of her previous life and asked the elders in the family first.

"Yao Yao, the brigade is full of farm work, you can't do it." Grandma Su shook her head, but still disagreed, and continued: "You are just right, you need to be recuperated."

Now is the time for spring plowing, and the big guys are all busy working on the team. Those light jobs are all distributed to the old people, and all they can do is the work in the field.

"Grandma, when I grow up, I can't spend my whole life doing these housework at home." Su Yao lowered her eyes, her fair face had delicate features.

Grandma Su was stunned for a moment.

"Grandma, what do you think I can do?" Su Yao said, "No, I can learn."

"Hey," Grandma Su came back to her senses, "Yao Yao, it's good that you have such a heart, let me think about what jobs in the brigade are suitable for you."

"Okay! Thank you grandma!" Su Yao smiled brightly.

"It's late, go back and rest." Grandma Su smiled and patted Su Yao's hand.

Su Yao responded obediently.

Early the next morning, Grandma Su and Su's father and Su's mother talked about this before going to work, "Second brother, Da Lan, if you have time, you can also help out to the brigade and ask, which jobs are suitable for Yao Yao?"

Su's father was taken aback, he turned his head around, "This... Yao Yao really wants to come out to earn work points?"

"Then I'll ask my natal family. I don't know if there is anyone suitable for Yao Yao in the next brigade." Su's mother said, "Yao Yao still has a junior high school diploma."

"I'll ask the team leader, but I have to pick an easy job, and it's okay if there's not much work." Su's father was very happy. Yao Yao was weak in the past, and he couldn't do heavy work such as carrying water and washing clothes.Now that I am in good health, I can think about earning work points for my family!
"You're from the second family, you reminded me," Su's mother thought for a while, "Lihong is still in town..."

"That's right, sister-in-law doesn't work in the streets of the town? And uncle works in the machinery factory." This is one of the most promising members of the Su family.

I think that not long after she married, Su Lihong also married in the town, and followed her husband to eat commercial food.What's even better is that Su Lihong is capable. Not long after giving birth to two children, she went to work in the street by herself.

Now life is very prosperous, enviable!Every year during the holidays, I bring a lot of food to honor Grandma Su, and I always care about the younger generation in the family.

"It's not urgent. Yao Yao is in good health. Let's ask in the brigade first, and then trouble Lihong if it's not suitable." Grandma Su said, "It's not too late to make a decision in a month or two. Let Yao Yao take care of his health." .”

Su's father and Su's mother were naturally happy.

These days Su Yao started to water the vegetables in the courtyard with water from the spiritual spring. I tried this method yesterday and it worked, but it just grew a little too fast.

Su Yao decided to water more thinly this time, watering every three days, so that it would not be easy for others to notice.

The remaining water is still poured into the bucket of the chicken coop for the chickens to drink.

The next day, Su Yao woke up as usual, and saw Mrs. Su Datang arranging the bamboo baskets.

"Morning sister-in-law, morning sister-in-law." Su Yao washed up, "What are you doing?"

"Yao Yao is up. We're going to pick wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain. I don't know if there are any mushrooms on the mountain." Mrs. Su smiled and carried the bamboo basket on her back.

"Would you like Yaoyao together?" Ertang's sister-in-law came out of the kitchen, wrapping the steamed buns that Grandma Su had made for them earlier in the morning with a cloth.

"Okay! Sister-in-law in the lobby and sister-in-law in the second hall are waiting for me!" Su Yao wiped her face with a towel, then ran to the kitchen, ready to have a quick breakfast.

"Yao Yao, don't worry." The lady in the lobby shouted.

Su Yao's breakfast and dressing are much faster than usual. Fortunately, the clothes here are simple, just put on a thick coat when going out.

It took only ten minutes before and after, and we didn't keep everyone waiting.

Su Yao has been bored at home for several days, this is the first time she goes up the mountain with others, and she is very happy.

A lot of wild flowers bloomed on the side of the road, Su Yao was carrying a small bamboo basket, and followed closely by the two sisters-in-law.

The back mountain of Daping Village is a little far away from the Su family, and it takes more than half an hour to get there. Along the way, you can meet many people in the village.

Like them, everyone wanted to come to the mountains to pick wild vegetables to eat.

They didn't get up too late, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, some people were already picking wild vegetables.

The second sister-in-law said hello to the big hall sister-in-law, and was going to pick some mushrooms in the depths.

"Yao Yao, if you are tired, take a rest. You have just recovered, so don't force yourself." The wife in the lobby told Su Yao.

"Okay." Su Yao responded obediently.

Mrs. Su taught Su Yao to identify wild vegetables, and led her to find a place with a lot of wild vegetables and pick them.

"Su Yao?!"

Su Yao picked a handful of wild vegetables, and when she heard someone calling her, she turned her head in doubt, "Su Yu?"

Su Yu was also carrying a bamboo basket, with thin sweat on his face, he raised his hand and wiped it off, "I looked familiar just now, but now I come here to see, it really is you! You also came to pick wild vegetables?"

"Yo, sister Su Yu, you also cook wild vegetables!" Su Datang's sister-in-law obviously knew Su Yu, and it was not surprising that everyone in the village was related.

"Su Yu, how long have you been here?" Su Yao greeted happily with a bright smile.

"I came early in the morning, and it's been an hour." Su Yu stared at Su Yao seriously, "Su Yao, why do I see that you are much prettier than before?"

Su Yao said with a smile: "I just recovered my body recently."

"How much did you pick?" Su Yao looked at Su Yu's bamboo basket and changed the subject.

"I picked some." Su Yu lifted the bamboo basket up, "Would you like to come with me, I know there is a place where there are mushrooms."

Su Yao was a little moved, and looked at the lobby lady, "Lobby lady, Su Yu and I are going to a place together, and we will come back later."

"Go, let's go, the wild vegetables here are almost picked, I can work alone." Su Yao, the sister-in-law of Su Datang, followed Su Yu to pick mushrooms.

Su Yao and Su Yu walked up the mountain together.

The road on the mountain was difficult, but Su Yu walked smoothly. Su Yao followed her to enjoy the fun of climbing the mountain.

"Hey, look at Su Yao." Su Yu suddenly stopped, pointed to the distance, and whispered.

Su Yao curiously looked in the direction Su Yu was pointing at, and saw Zhou Chengyuan!
Zhou Chengyuan was not far below, and he seemed to be preparing to go up the mountain.At this time, a well-dressed young girl was blushing and was about to walk towards Zhou Chengyuan with a water bottle, but was firmly held back by a woman.

Zhou Chengyuan didn't seem to care at all, and continued to walk vigorously.Under the sun, those facial features are as handsome as a fairy.

"When the educated youth first came here this week, he lost a lot of girls." Su Yu said with emotion.

Su Yao listened carefully.

"He is capable. When he first went to the countryside, there was a shortage of people to build a dam in the city. He responded to the call and signed up. When he came back, he often told the team leader about the new planting knowledge, which helped the team a lot. He usually worked actively. He was the most educated youth Can do it." Su Yu shook his head, "It's a pity that he came from a bad background. I heard that his parents were sent to the Northwest, and many families didn't want their daughters to come near him."

"He saved me, he's a good man."

Zhou Chengyuan was Su Yao's savior, and when he heard these words, he admired him even more.
