Chapter 313
For the captain, food is his lifeblood. Because his decision caused their team to lose so much food this season, he regretted that his intestines were green.

Neither Yang Zhenfeng nor Xu Shuxin's comfort could make him feel better.

While the captain was suffering in his heart, another week passed and Xia Shu arrived.

The team leader organized a mobilization meeting for the members as usual, and even killed a pig and distributed it to the members so that everyone could have a full stomach and work hard.

This summer harvest, except for Xu Qingmu and Xu Shuyu who had to go to work, the whole Xu family participated, including Xu Shuxin.

The brigade's soap factory was also temporarily on holiday.

This is how it is as a side job of the brigade, everything is mainly focused on harvesting food.

An older and experienced man from the brigade said that there will be heavy rains in a few days. In order to prevent the grain from rotting in the fields, the brigade leader issued a death order and everyone had to go to the fields to help harvest.

Even Qiu Gu, who is already a little crazy, is no exception.

Since Xu Shuxin gave Li Meili advice on how to treat Aunt Qiu's mother and son, she has seen Aunt Qiu less and less, and then she hasn't seen her for a long time.

Now when I see someone again, the person turns out to be fair and fat.

Xu Shuxin: "..."

Li Meili is still kind. Qiu Gu tortured her so much before, and she was able to raise her so well after Qiu Gu went crazy. It's really...

She admired Li Meili.

If it were her, she would have sent him away early, so she wouldn't take care of him like this.

"Can your mother-in-law still work like this?" Cui Lanhua asked Li Meili.

Li Meili glanced at Qiu Gu. Qiu Gu looked forward, but her eyes were unfocused.

She said: "Actually, she can still do things when she is not making trouble. Didn't it mean that there will be heavy rain in a few days and we need to collect the grain quickly? Let her help in the drying field. As long as she is not irritated, she can still help. busy."

Cui Lanhua nodded, "With one more person and more effort, we can get the food back sooner."

She looked up at the still blurry sky and said, "It's been so hot these days and the sun is shining brightly. Will it really rain in the next few days?"

Li Meili also looked up at the sky, "Who knows, but the sooner we take the food back, the sooner we can feel at ease."

It would be better for people to be tired and collect the grain earlier than to let the grain soak in water and rot in the ground.

They work hard all year round to serve the crops, isn't it just for this moment?

If it fails at the last moment, all the hard work ahead will be in vain.

Ergouniang came over and said, "That's not the truth. It's better to finish it as soon as possible so that you can feel at ease."

After saying that, she also said to Xu Shuxin, "Qiya, this is your first time going to the fields. Are you scared? There are many leeches in the fields. They are crawling all over your legs and sucking you. Blood……"

Cui Lanhua interrupted her, "Don't scare my Xiaoqi."

Ergouniang smiled and said, "How can this be a scare? I told her in advance so that she could be prepared."

Xu Shuxin lifted her trouser legs without fear at all, "Aunt Cuifen, I'm prepared, look."

Because the light was not good, Ergouniang couldn't see clearly, so she even lowered her head to get a closer look.

You can see it as soon as you get closer.

"Hey, are you going to go to the fields with your socks on?" She said with pity in her tone, "Wouldn't it be a waste if you wear these socks and go to the fields?"

Even if she had a good relationship with the Xu family, she still had to lament that Xu Shuxin was a prodigal.

Once these fine socks are worn in the field, they will be ruined.And they are long socks, so how much fabric is needed?

"Lanhua, you really dote on children." Ergouniang sighed.

Li Meili also nodded.

Cui Lanhua smiled and said, "The child has never been in the fields and is afraid of leeches, so I just let her go."

The main reason is that the fabrics are all because of the children. What reason does she have to disagree?

While several people were saying this, the people in front had already received their farm tools and it was their turn.

They are all assigned to cut rice, so what they need now is sickles.

One person each, after receiving a sickle, the group walked towards the paddy fields outside the village.

When she arrived at the assigned field, Xu Shuxin rolled up her trouser legs and prepared to go to the field.

Cui Lanhua said: "Xinxin, you have never cut rice before, so you should learn from your mother first. You can see that you are holding the rice stalk with your left hand and cutting with your right hand from the outside to the body. You must pay attention to safety and don't cut your hands."

Cui Lanhua said while giving Xu Shuxin a demonstration.

It only took one time, and Xu Shuxin watched it for a while.

The main thing is that there is no difficulty at all.

Her parents didn’t let her participate in last year’s autumn harvest, so this was her first time doing this work.

After watching the meeting, she began to bend down and imitate Cui Lanhua's movements, holding the rice stalk with one hand and cutting with the other.

Cui Lanhua watched from the side, "Be careful what you do."

Xu Shuyan was next to Xu Shuxin, and she had already bent down and started cutting the rice. "Mom, don't be so nervous. What if you are nervous and Xinxin is nervous too? This will make it easier for you to cut yourself."

Xu Shuxin nodded, "That's right, mother, you don't have to keep an eye on me, can you still make it difficult for me to do something as trivial as harvesting rice?"

While she was talking, she had already put down a row of rice.

Cui Lanhua saw that her movements were nimble and the sickle was very flexible, with no sign of hurting herself at all, so she felt relieved and began to bend down and concentrate on her work.

Xu Shuyue and others were some distance away. When they turned around and put the cut rice behind them, they also glanced sideways at Xu Shuxin. Seeing that she was doing a decent job, she felt relieved.

Xu Shuxin curled her lips: Mother and sister are just worried for nothing. It's just such an easy task as cutting rice. How can someone hurt themselves?

Cutting rice is a piece of cake for Xu Shuxin. The only thing that makes her feel uncomfortable is that she always bends over and her waist is really tired.

She felt that this was the first time she had bent down for such a long time to feel this way.

Also, the remaining rice stalks after cutting the rice would poke her calves. Fortunately, because she was wearing socks, there was a layer of fabric blocking her legs, so it was not too uncomfortable.

Xu Shuyue and others also wore socks under Xu Shuxin's persuasion, but Cui Lanhua was worried about the small amount of fabric and refused to wear them.

The sun rose from the east and the sky became brighter and brighter. Xu Shuxin saw the red skin between Cui Lanhua's raised legs and couldn't help but said, "Mom, when you get home at noon, you should also wear socks. Look at you." My legs were all red."

When she said this, Xu Shuyan also raised her head and glanced at Cui Lanhua, and then advised, "That's right, mother, how much fabric does that pair of socks cost? It's better to wear them well, at least it's not that uncomfortable, and there are no leeches."

Xu Shuyan raised her legs and saw that there were no leeches on her legs. She said in surprise: "Xinxin, there are no leeches in socks! It turns out that leeches cannot suck blood through fabric."

Xu Shuxin told her ruthlessly, "You are wrong, leeches can suck blood through cloth."
