However, at the thought of having to do farm work in the countryside, Gu An’an’s hands froze instinctively. She lowered her head and looked at her hands.

Ever since she washed her hands with the spiritual spring water, the calluses on her hands had disappeared. Her rough and yellow skin had also become snow-white and tender. In addition, she had never done farm work before. Would she be able to take it when she goes to work in the fields?

As the youngest daughter of the Gu family, she was skilled in various areas, such as playing musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, martial arts, horse riding, knives handling, making pastries, sewing, and applying makeup. However, she had no experience in agricultural work.

But now…

She had to take on something that she wasn’t good at. Could she truly excel in it?

Gu An’an was starting to doubt herself.

She couldn’t help but sigh silently to herself. She was feeling worried about her future situation!

Just as Gu An’an heaved a long sigh, they arrived at the courtyard where the educated youths were housed.

The courtyard in front of her was neither good nor bad. Overall, it looked pretty decent. In any case, she could not go back, and it was impossible for her to return to the Gu family. Therefore, she had to take things as they came!

If everyone else could live here, why couldn’t Gu An’an?

At this moment, the work in the village had ended. The educated youths had already finished preparing dinner and were sitting around the table. When the team leader saw the village chief coming over with four newly arrived educated youths, he immediately scarfed down the food in his bowl and got up.

“Comrade Song, the four of them have just been assigned to our village. You’re the team leader of the youth dormitory. Please make the necessary arrangements,” Zhao Zhiyuan said to Song Hongxuan.

Song Hongxuan’s calm gaze swept across the four individuals and lingered on Gu An’an’s face for an additional two seconds. Then, he quickly retracted his gaze. Meanwhile, his earlobes had turned red involuntarily. He was surprised to find such a beautiful girl among the new group of educated youths.

“Okay, Village Chief. Sorry to trouble you. The empty beds have been tidied up this morning. The male youths will stay with us in one room. As for the females, there’s only one empty bed in Comrade Liu’s dormitory. The remaining two will have to stay in that small room…”

Before he could finish speaking, Wen Taohua spoke up, “I’ll stay in Comrade Liu’s room.” Besides speaking with a lisp because of her missing tooth, it also exposed the gap among the teeth.

Hearing her voice, everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks and turned to look at her. When their gazes landed on Wen Taohua’s face, they were surprised to see that not only was one of her front teeth missing, but there was also blood on her face.

Wen Taohua realized that there was a strange look in everyone’s eyes. Only then did she recall that one of her front teeth was missing. She quickly closed her mouth and covered it with her hand.

The resentment in her immediately deepened. She blamed Gu An’an for all the misfortune that had befallen her. If it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t have made a fool of herself.

“Ahem…”

Looking surprised, Song Hongxuan quickly regained his composure and cleared his throat. With pursed lips, he said, “That’s fine. The two female comrades will stay in the other room.”

With that, he turned around and shouted at Liu Xiaohui, the chief of the female dormitory, “Liu Xiaohui, bring her to your dormitory to settle down.”

A frown flashed across Liu Xiaohui’s face in that instant. She was inexplicably resistant to this person moving into their dormitory. It felt as if the harmony in their dormitory would be disrupted after she moved in. Therefore she was feeling quite resistant about it.

She glanced at Wen Taohua and said, “Follow me!”

Wen Taohua immediately snorted at Gu An’an with a smug look in her eyes. Then she raised her chin high, took her luggage and left with the other person.

From the way she walked, she looked like a…
