“The Village Chief serves as the temporary leader of the autumn planting group. The autumn harvest group is divided into three groups: manure transportation, autumn plowing, and sowing. The male members are responsible for manure transportation and autumn plowing, while the female members are responsible for sowing.”
“Now, everyone, stand in your respective groups. The autumn harvest group stands over here, and the autumn planting group stands over there.”
Aunt Guihua pulled Yi Qingqing to the autumn harvest group, and everyone still stood in their original teams.
In fact, each team originally had people of all ages, so even after being divided into two groups, the number of people in each team was still about the same.
The autumn planting group has more heavy physical work to do. Although the strong laborers are all there, there are fewer people there. Their main job is to plant winter wheat.
The autumn harvest group has a large amount of work and various things, so there are many people.
The commune cadre just stood there watching the team leader assign tasks and didn’t do anything else.
“Finally, during the autumn harvest, the team’s canteen will be open to provide lunch, saving everyone the time of going home to cook. Everyone will vote to elect four people to be in charge of the canteen during this period. The voting will be presided over by Secretary Chen from our commune.”
Secretary Chen was holding a box of chalk in his hand and counting the votes on the wall of the granary.
The villagers all turned their backs and were not allowed to look back. Then they went there one by one and told the secretary who they wanted to vote for.
Yi Qingqing lowered her head.
Why were they eating from a big pot?
How delicious a big pot meal could be?
She could tell it with her feet. How could it compare to cooking her own small meal!
Fortunately, there is only one meal at noon, so she can still eat something delicious in the morning and evening.
“Why are you so dejected?”
Aunt Guihua looked at her drooping face and said with a smile, “I think you will be selected this time.”
“What?” Yi Qingqing suspected that she had heard it wrong.
“I said, there is a high possibility that you will be chosen to cook, which is more comfortable than working in the fields.” Aunt Guihua repeated.
Yi Qingqing didn’t quite understand: “How can I get such a popular job?”
Of course, she knew that cooking was easier than working in the fields. At least, she didn’t have to work in the fields under the scorching sun.
This is of secondary importance to the villagers. In this era, few people are afraid of hard work and fatigue, but being able to cook for fellow villagers and get a bite to eat is a very big and lucrative job.
How could she, a newly arrived educated youth, have such ability?
Moreover, she had no idea that the autumn harvest team had a canteen, and she had never thought about it because she didn’t want a bite of food.
“The loach that Hu Wa brought back yesterday was really delicious. I want to learn how to cook it from you! The kids are showing off everywhere, so the news has spread throughout the team.”
“You are so generous to the kids. You will definitely not be greedy for everyone’s food. You are also a good cook. Who doesn’t want to eat something good?”
“Unless someone from your family wants to run for election, I guess many people will choose you. But don’t be afraid, with Auntie’s popularity, I will definitely be one of the cooks in this team.”
Aunt Guihua said with confidence.

The author has something to say:
—Sugar-Sprinkling Little Theater—
Yun Guyuan: I feel bad. Qingqing must be very tired to cook for so many people. How about I cook for you sooner or later!
Yi Qingqing: I haven’t been elected yet. Even if I am elected, I don’t need your help. The Dali Pills on your body are too powerful. Will I be tired from flipping the spatula a few times? The key is that it’s hard for me to cook for you.
Yun Guyuan: o(╥﹏╥)o, I regret it…
Happy Saturday, my dear…
