The autumn harvest is the most tiring. In the production brigade, men, women, old and young, all get up before dawn every day and are already working in the fields at dawn.
At night, it won't be until it gets completely dark that I pack up and go home.
There was no shade in the crop fields, so everyone was exposed to the sun. They had to wear long sleeves and long trousers, and a hat with a towel hanging on the back of the hat to cover the neck.
Being so heavily armed in the summer and having to stay in the sun from morning to night, everyone couldn't bear the heat and the sweat on their bodies never dried.
But there is nothing that can be done about it.
If I didn't wear it so tightly, I would definitely lose a layer of skin in the sun at the end of the day.
Hard work is definitely hard work, but hard work also pays off.
Looking at the grains drying on the threshing floor, everyone is willing to work no matter how hard and tired they are.
There were those who were in poor physical condition and suffered from sunstroke. They just drank a few sips of water in the shade of a tree, rested for a while, and then went back to work with their sickles.
After working hard for most of the year, who is willing to let go at this most critical moment
If you work more, you can earn more work points. When the food is divided equally, you can get more points, and your family can eat more.
When everyone is working in full swing, some people are particularly leisurely.
The educated youths were also allocated a wheat field.
There are obviously only six educated youths, but there are seven people working in the fields.
The people in the Third Production Brigade were already used to this. They didn't need to look too much to know that the extra person must be Wang Aijuan.
Everyone on the production team was also puzzled. They didn't know what Wang Aijuan was thinking. Even though she was not married yet, she was living in an educated youth area instead of going home. She even had a complete falling out with her family.
The Wang family no longer cares about her, and she becomes even more unscrupulous.
He didn't do his job well in the pig pen, and he didn't care if his work points were deducted. He followed Li Weiguo every day and helped Li Weiguo with his work.
Just like now, several other educated youths are working hard to cut the wheat, but only Li Weiguo is holding a sickle and not working.
Either standing there and looking around, or symbolically bending down to cut a few times, then walking towards the shade of the tree with a sickle in hand.
It feels so good to sit under the shade of a tree, drink boiled water from an enamel jar, and watch others sweating in the fields.
Li Weiguo thought so and glanced at Wang Aijuan again.
She is not useless either.
At least it can help me do a lot of work.
He doesn't have to work now, but he gets very little work points, and his life is much more comfortable.
After going to the countryside for such a long time, Li Weiguo has only recently been able to live a comfortable life.
Looking at Wang Aijuan who was bending down to cut wheat, Li Weiguo sighed with regret.
If Wang Aijuan didn't smell so bad and looked better, it would actually be okay to marry her.
But unfortunately, things just don't go as planned.
Thinking of this, Li Weiguo's good mood disappeared. He simply stopped looking at Wang Aijuan and turned his head to look elsewhere.
Looking at it, Li Weiguo saw Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan was also bending over to cut wheat in the field, but her speed was much faster than Wang Aijuan's. The wheat that was cut was all neatly laid out, unlike Wang Aijuan's who cut it and piled it on the ground randomly.
The autumn harvest has been going on for several days, and even though he didn't work much, he still got a lot of tan.
But Su Ruanruan is still so white!
