"Xuxu, look, these are the strong laborers from our village, a total of fifty-six men. I think they are all capable, so I kept them," the village chief said while showing Xuxu the list of male villagers who had signed up for reclaiming wasteland.
"Uncle Village Chief, I trust you. We'll start clearing the land for farming tomorrow, and I was hoping Uncle Village Chief could come over to support me," Xuxu said half-jokingly, half-pleading as she looked at the village chief.
"Alright, this little matter, I'll be there early tomorrow morning. I will make sure it's done for you. It's just a pity that not many families in the village signed up to cultivate the new rice variety," the village chief sighed with regret.
