The younger ones in the second room lost the energy to work on the first day, but no one shied away.

Roche poops and urinates more than yesterday.

Only Yuan Chunhua worked silently without uttering a single complaint.

After all, Mrs. Xu Zhang is older. In the first two days, she was almost as efficient as Yuan Chunhua. Later, she gradually failed to catch up with Yuan Chunhua.

A lot of millet has been harvested in the field, but no one can take it back, nor can it be left in the field overnight. What if someone steals it?

So Yuan Chunhua took the initiative and asked her to go to a house with a lot of men in the village to work as a male worker.

In some sects, strong men have more labor force and fewer women. When it comes to cutting the grain, women are clever and can cut it quickly and well, and when it comes to carrying the burden of grain, men are more powerful, so it is not worth it.

Therefore, there are often workers swapping jobs, and families with more male workers will go to families with more female workers.

Xu Zhang agreed.

I asked Yuan Chunhua to work for a nearby family with many male workers, and asked a strong man to come and help Lao Xu's family pick millet. Yuan Chunhua went to help their family cut millet.

With this change, the work efficiency of Lao Xu's family has improved.

In the morning, Yuan Chunhua spent half a day harvesting millet with Xu Zhang and others at Lao Xu's house. In the afternoon, Yuan Chunhua went out to change to a male worker and came back to pick millet with Xu Youde.

Yuan Chunhua can be regarded as the person who made the greatest contribution to the autumn harvest of the old Xu family.

Even if Mrs. Xu Zhang had problems with her again, she saw the autumn harvest this time and her attitude towards her became much better.

With the comparison of Yuan Chunhua, Mrs. Xu Zhang scolded Yao, Dalang, Da Ya, Luo and other lazy people every day. She asked them to look at Yuan Chunhua and the young people in the second room, and asked them about their food.

Did they all go to the dog's belly for nothing? The old couple were crawling around in the fields to work, and they were exhausted. The young people were lying dead in the house at all times, and they were moaning and groaning incessantly. It was simply

It's worse than a beast...

Anyway, Mrs. Xu Zhang won't let anyone be lazy. If anyone wants to be lazy, she will scold him all day long.

When she yelled, she didn't avoid people, she just worked in the fields while yelling loudly, so that the whole Xujia Village could hear her.

Dalang and Daya were still lying in the house for a long time at first. Later, they were called by the Yao family to get out of the fields. Even if they showed up, they had to stay in the fields. Otherwise, the reputations of Dalang and Daya would be lost in Xujia Village.

I don’t want it anymore.

After four or five days of harvesting like this, everyone in Lao Xu's family was as tired as a dog. Fortunately, the harvest was almost finished.

If you persist for a few more days, you can get over it.

Then, Mrs. Xu Zhang began to feel worried. Xu Youde refused to ask for work, so the whole family had to drag the food back. This was a good thing.

But there is one thing: how to harvest grain from Xu Jiaojiao’s fifteen acres of land?

If she hires a job, Mrs. Xu Zhang can be free to help supervise Xu Jiaojiao's grain collection.

Now I can't walk away at all, I am so tired that my old bones are about to fall apart. Seeing that the grain in the fields will fall into the fields if it is not harvested, and worrying about rain, Xu Zhang is secretly anxious.

It’s hard to open your mouth and tell Xu Youdeming that the fourth child, who doesn’t know whether he is alive or dead, has not returned yet.

If money is needed later, Xu Youde may have to sell Xu Jiaojiao's land again after learning about it.

How can that happen?

Jiaojiao has already given so much, and the field is her last dowry, which cannot be touched even by thunder and lightning.

To put it bluntly, even if Mrs. Xu Zhang was dying of illness and was waiting to sell her land and silver to save her life, she would rather die than let her old girl sell her land!

Therefore, when it comes to harvesting grain, she still has to do it secretly.

After breakfast that day, Xu Youde took Yuan Chunhua and the others to the fields.

Mrs. Xu Zhang collected the dishes and chopsticks at home, taking a break from doing housework.

She was getting older, and she had been doing heavy farm work in the fields for several days, bending her back and carrying her back. Her body and bones were really tired.

I thought about my old girl carefully. If my old girl were here, I would give her a massage, give her acupuncture, etc., and she wouldn't be so uncomfortable.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Xu Zhang was the only one in the family, and even Xu Laoer went out to pick up millet on the field ridge.

When Mrs. Xu Zhang raised her head, her neck felt painful, "Who is it?"

It's the busy farming season, and most people won't come to visit us at this time.

Even those who don’t have farmland at home either do odd jobs for others or go to the ridges of the fields to pick millet.

"It's us, aunt, I'm Lu Yougen..."

Xu Zhang thought about it for a long time, but she didn't remember who Lu Yougen was... he should be an acquaintance.

There was no locked door in the big courtyard, Xu Zhang said, "The door is not closed, just push it open and go in."

With a creak, the courtyard gate opened.

A middle-aged couple walked in with smiles on their faces.

Xu Zhang saw it and remembered it!

In front of the Empress Temple, the parents of the child named Xiaojing whom Xu Jiaojiao saved.

This couple was poor and did not even have money for medical treatment. Xu Jiaojiao asked them to go to Huichun Tang for treatment. Before Xu Jiaojiao went to Bingyang City, the couple even brought their children to thank Xu Jiaojiao.

The fruits, pine nuts and other things they brought that day have not been eaten yet. They are still in the cellar, waiting for Xu Jiaojiao to come back to eat.

Mrs. Xu Zhang recognized it, became enthusiastic, and said with concern, "Oh, it's you two. How is Xiaojing? Is there something wrong with Xiaojing again?"

Lu Yougen hurriedly bowed and replied, "No, no, our small well has been restored. It is now alive and kicking at home. I didn't bring it here."

Mrs. Xu Zhang invited them to sit in the main room.

The two couples entered the house in a reserved manner.

Mrs. Xu Zhang poured tea for the two of them, "Then what are you doing here today? Do you have anything to do with our Jiaojiao? Our Jiaojiao and our brother have gone on a long trip and are not at home..."

The couple took it over and said, "Auntie, you're welcome. We're not looking for a benefactor. We...we're here to help."

"Help?" Xu Zhang was puzzled.

Lu Yougen blushed and said shyly, "Yes, I will help your family with the autumn harvest. My mother-in-law can cut millet, and I also have a lot of strength, and I can pick millet. Our family is poor and there is no fertile land for growing millet. We are free anyway."

It’s okay, I just want to come over and help.”

Lu Yougen's wife, Mrs. Lu, also echoed, "Auntie, actually I should have come here a few days ago. I just had to take care of the child Xiaojing, so I waited until today. We will help, and you can just give me food, and nothing else."

No, really, aunt, we are here to repay the favor. If the little benefactor is not here, it is still right to help aunt with the work."
