The masters all went to the field in person, not to mention the others, they were all in full swing in the field without lifting their heads.

With the joint efforts of everyone, all the [-]-acre fields were harvested before dark, and the huge front and back yards were full of grain in bundles.

Thanks to the large yard, otherwise so much food would really have to be dried outside.

After a day's work under the scorching sun, everyone was exhausted.

Uncle Li, village head Li Kui and the others went straight home when they returned to the village. They haven't been working in the fields for such a long time, and they just want to lie on the bed and have a good rest.

Gu Lan also worked for a day and naturally understood how Uncle Li and the others felt, and didn't hold back too much, so she personally sent Uncle Li and the village chief uncle back home.

I want to give each family a meal for dinner, expressing my gratitude.

Then it was to pay the short-term workers. Although they only worked for a few days, each of them paid hundreds of dollars, which was as much as what they had worked for half a month before. Everyone was smiling with the money.

A dozen or so people were left behind by Butler Jin, and the rest left.

Cao Liang, Wang Xiaolin, and Liu Goudan were also among those left behind.

At this moment, the three of them stood together with other day laborers, and they were confused in their hearts.

Is there anything wrong with thinking they're doing their job?

After much deliberation, I can't think of anything?
There is no stealing, adultery, or sleight-of-hand work, and you are doing real work, and you are helping others after you finish your own work.

Just as he was wondering, the butler said, "Brothers, don't think too much..." The butler smiled, seeing the expressions on their faces, "I'm keeping you one step late because there is still work to do. Of course, if If you don't want something, we will naturally not force it."

"Why don't you want to, we still have to thank the butler for staying with us." After understanding the reason, he was relieved and someone immediately spoke.

Someone took the lead, and the others couldn't stand up immediately, and they all spoke up.

"Yeah... If there is any work butler, just ask, we will definitely do a good job."

"...Yes, that's right." The short-term workers nodded one after another.

Those who can come out to work, either because they don’t have much land at home, or because they have a lot of people, they can do it without him, or because the wheat matures later, even if they go out to work, they will not delay going back to harvest. Homemade wheat.

In short, everyone is very happy to earn a few more silver coins.

The housekeeper had expected the reaction of the short-term workers, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's good if you don't have any opinions, and everyone is familiar with the work. See the whole yard full of food. After taking it back, there will be more I'm very busy, so please work hard for a few more days."

"No hard work, no hard work." Cao Liang and the others quickly shook their heads, very happy in their hearts.

They are all people who are used to work, so how can they earn money if they don't work hard.

It is said that in the past few days in the Gu family, except for today's hard work, the rest of the time is just like playing and earning a day's money.

"That's fine. Since there is no problem, everyone should go back and rest quickly. Come here before dawn tomorrow. The wages are the same as before, including two meals."

"Hey... we must arrive early tomorrow, thank you butler for giving us this opportunity..."

Cao Liang and the others hurriedly thanked them, and then left with excitement.

After arranging for Butler Jin to return to his master, he quickly got busy again.

The master said that each family in the village who came to help had six dishes and one pot of wine, and they had to cook them before dinner, so they didn't have much time left.

On the other hand, Gu Lan, who had returned home, washed up and was surrounded by her two sons.

Especially when An An looked at her mother so distressed!
He had heard that his mother also went to the field to cut the wheat in person, and he felt distressed for the scratches on his mother's hands and the stretch marks on her arms.

"Father, does it hurt?" An An pursed her lips and her eyes turned red.

Bundles of wheat are everywhere in the yard. During the day, he and his younger brother approached curiously, but were accidentally pricked by the awns on the wheat, and blood beads came out at that time.

It really hurts him, but fortunately, his eyes are red because of the piercing. My brother cried in pain when he was young. Mother Liao coaxed him for a while, and she gave him a lot of good things so that he didn't cry.

It also scares Daya Erya Jinbao Jindan too.

"It doesn't hurt," said quickly, looking at her son Gu Lan who was about to cry.

"Father is lying, how could so many marks not hurt."

"Father didn't lie, it really didn't hurt. Dad was busy with work at the time. He didn't know when the cut was made and he didn't know where he felt the pain. When he found out that the wound had scabbed over, it was even less painful. And Dad’s slaps are nothing, you haven’t seen the uncles who are helping with the work, they have a lot of shouts, well, don’t be sad!”

Holding his son in his arms, he stroked the little guy's head to comfort him.

"Really?"

"Of course, Dad never lied."

She really didn't lie to her son, and she didn't take this scratch on her body to heart at all. This injury was not at the same latitude as the previous injury, and there was no comparison.

Seeing Mother's serious look, and thinking that her finger pricked by Mai Mang would not hurt after a while, An An nodded, feeling better.

"Father, I'll help you with the medicine."

"This...you don't have to." Gu Lan glanced at the marks on his arm, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Father..." An An looked at Gu Lan so pitifully with her wet eyes open, as if she would cry for her if she refused to agree.

Gu Lan: "..." Can you not agree?

Seeing Mother nodding, An An quickly put away the pitiful expression on her face, turned around as if running to the inner room, and the short-legged Kangkang quickly followed.

Then I watched the two little Doudings walking out carrying a small medicine box with difficulty, one high and the other low.

Gu Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry and hurried forward to take it.

Then I watched my son open the medicine box solemnly, took out alcohol cotton from it, and followed her example to clean and disinfect the scratched arm bit by bit, and then took out the wound medicine and rubbed it on the wound.

If it weren't for the hot weather now, I'm afraid I would have to learn how she used to bandage her wounds and wrap her whole arm up.

After doing this all over again, An An breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Lan also let out a sigh of relief, having such a cute little housekeeper in the family is really painful and happy.

No, it should be two.

Although Kangkang couldn't help much, he helped him wrinkle his little face together with empathy, as if it would stop the pain and heal.

Then the two little guys grew behind her like tails, and they followed her wherever she went, and Gu Lan let them go.

Butler Jin is here, on time before dinner, he will take people to deliver the prepared meals and wine to the village to help with the wheat harvest.

Then, of course, the general refusal was polite, but everything was delivered, and there was really nothing I didn't want.

Everyone knew that the food at Gulan's house was no worse than that of restaurants in the city, and the tangy aroma of the food was irresistible.

The amount of food delivered was large enough for a family, and there was also wine, which was a disguised form of paying their wages.

Such a jar of good wine costs at least a few hundred yuan, which is much higher than wages, but it is also more expensive than giving wages.
