下一個
禮拜五女兒下地幹活了。就衝那8塊5一小時,也得好好幹。早晨出發前,長衣長褲不穿,說天氣太熱。但老爸提醒玉米葉會把手腳的皮膚劃傷,又連忙帶了套外衣,以防萬一需要。冰水,草帽(還是十年前一位在這裏讀書的阿姨留下來的。)。老爸把她送到農學院,讓她自己和同伴一起下地幹活。
晚上老爸去接,她居然在圖書館了:“不是說幹一整天嗎?”
“We worked the full morning in the corn field. Then, after lunch, wecame back to work in the office. They arranged 4 hours of work in theoffice for us. However, we finished it in 2 hours. ”
老爸開玩笑:“So you are going to get paid for 8 hours?”
“No! We figured out already--we have to work slowly next time! That's not fair to us since we worked hard and got less pay.”
(See, greed is human's nature, right? :).)
“How about the work in the field?” 老爸接著問。
“Not bad. We counted plants in each row and cut the extra ones. It's easy. However, by the time to noon, it got so hot.”
“You better watch out if you have to work in the afternnon. Now the plant is small, you can get some breeze. Once they grow taller, there is no wind at all.” 老爸提醒女兒。
“I know. It's going to be harder. You know what, I finished my 八寶粥 in 2 minutes--I was so hungry. After that, I bought 6 inches of Subway, and still felt hungry.”
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
哈哈,溫室裏的苗苗終於要體會生活的艱辛了。
