Xiao Aimei is the daughter of the team leader, and also the aunt of Xiao Chengjin. She married Shen Pingchuan, who was also in the same team.
Because she could read and write and do arithmetic, she was not only the head of the women's team in the Third Production Brigade, but also a scorekeeper.
Of course, a brigade cannot have only one scorekeeper, and the scorekeepers are also divided according to the land area.
Coincidentally, Liu Xiuli was in the area that Xiao Aimei was in charge of.
At first, Xiao Aimei didn't notice that Liu Xiuli wasn't working in the fields. It was Xiao Chengjin who suddenly ran to her and told her about Liu Xiuli not working in the fields.
Xiao Aimei initially didn't notice Liu Xiuli's absence and even thought that she might have gone to the restroom. But as time passed and Liu Xiuli didn't return even after work, Xiao Aimei became unhappy.
Now seeing Liu Xiuli, naturally, she didn't have a good expression.
Liu Xiuli felt uncomfortable with everyone staring at her, but she had to muster up the courage and approached Xiao Aimei, trying to please her with a smile, "Aimei, my stomach isn't feeling well. That's why I spent a long time in the outhouse. I didn't intentionally skip work. You can't deduct my work points because of this, can you?"
Hearing this, Xiao Aimei's brows furrowed, and her gaze towards Liu Xiuli became sharp, "Just because you say you didn't intentionally skip work, you think you shouldn't have your work points deducted? If everyone in our brigade follows your example, who will work? Your mindset is unacceptable. You are taking advantage of public resources and have a hedonistic ideology! Comrade Liu Xiuli, such crooked thinking is unacceptable! Your work points for this morning must be deducted, otherwise, how can you justify it to the members who work hard in the fields? Everyone, don't you agree?"
Xiao Aimei's words received unanimous support from the surrounding members, and several even joined in to educate Liu Xiuli.
Faced with so many people, Liu Xiuli had no choice but to swallow her anger.
Before Liu Xiuli returned home, news of her work points being deducted for the morning had already reached Wang Pozi's ears.
Upon hearing this news, Wang Pozi was so angry that smoke seemed to come out of her head.
When she saw Liu Xiuli and Wang Aijuan entering the house one after the other, she immediately started scolding them.
"You lazy woman! Did you fall into the outhouse? You lost your work points for the whole morning! I don't think you should have lunch today either!"
Hearing her mother being scolded, Wang Aijuan stepped forward to block Liu Xiuli, "Mom, she didn't do it on purpose, and she didn't..."
"I'm talking to your mother! Do you have the right to speak as a loss-making commodity? You said you could go to the textile factory as a temporary worker, it's been several days, why haven't you heard anything? You're just eating for free at home all day long, where do you get the nerve? You're fifteen years old, and you're still at home eating for free. Do you have any shame? If I were you, I wouldn't have the face to live! How dare you keep eating! Why didn't you choke on your food!"
At the end, Wang Pozi even rolled her eyes, showing her disdain for Wang Aijuan.
Wang Pozi had always favored boys over girls, and Wang Aijuan had grown up listening to her scolding. But even so, she couldn't help but tear up.
At the same time, she felt even more resentful towards Su Ruanruan!
If she had been sent to the Su family back then, how good would it have been!
