This piece of land is neither big nor small.

Shen Wu didn't know exactly how many acres of land it was, so he could only calculate it in blocks.

From the beginning, she was harvesting wheat from left to right and from front to back.

The first piece was an irregular rectangle, but the second piece was like a regular rectangle, and it was particularly easy to cut this piece of land.

She had rested before, so she was able to cut the wheat smoothly and vigorously. Once she squatted down, she could cut a pile of wheat in a few strokes.

He stopped after mowing another piece of land and returned to get the straw rope. Shen Wu just stretched his stiff back and limbs and was tying the wheat according to the previous method when someone stood silently behind him.

Shen Wu was working happily, humming a little tune as he skillfully tied up the wheat piles one by one with his hands.

The rope on my waist was used up. Just when I reached the edge of the field, I turned around to touch the rope prepared at the edge of the field, and I felt someone put a straw rope into my palm.

As he took it, he turned his head in confusion.

"Why are you here?" Shen Wu jumped up and hurried forward to support the person.

~~~~~

Gu Zhou was sleeping when he heard someone talking at the gate of the courtyard. He thought it was his younger sister and aunt. Before he got out of bed to answer, he saw the door opened and his aunt pushed it open. His younger sister followed his aunt into the house, holding his younger brother.

"Oh my god, why are you so tired?"

Aunt He hurried forward to support Gu Zhou who was about to leave.

"Auntie, I'm fine. Why did you come here so early in the morning? Is there something urgent?"

Gu Zhou had just woken up and had no idea what was going on. He didn't know why Aunt He came to visit.

Gu Zhou saw the little brother moving uncontrollably in his little sister's arms, and said again: "Xiaowei, give me your little brother and put it on the bed."

Aunt He reached out and took the little brother, held him and coaxed him, looked at him, asked about his eating habits, and then spoke: "It's time for my little brother to learn to walk. You can't hold him in your arms every day. Children always want to move. Put him on the bed, cover him with bedding, and just watch him crawl. He doesn't have to really get down to the ground."

Gu Zhou nodded obediently, reached out to take it, put his brother on the bed, and taught him to crawl.

Aunt He then changed the subject: "I just happened to meet Jiang Yu when I came back from the fields. I saw her sitting on the edge of the field, playing with grass and not caring about the harvested wheat. I couldn't help but ask about you."

When Aunt He talked about Jiang Yu, she sighed angrily. Looking at the boy Gu who was so tired that his face turned pale, she had nothing to say to Jiang Yu.

When supporting Gu Xiaozi, she felt that he had no strength. Aunt He touched his forehead and said, "She is so tired that she is sick. I was wondering why she never talks back and just stands there like a wooden man. She only cares about her naughty girl."

"It's okay. I'll make some herbal medicine for you later. You'll feel better after drinking it. Have a good sleep and sweat a little, and the illness will go away."

"Auntie, I'm fine. You came just in time and I woke up. I also wanted to go to the fields to take a look."

Gu Zhou’s face was pale. Although he felt better after a good night’s sleep, the dull pain in his head was still there, not to mention the weakness in his hands and feet.

"Are you going again? The situation in the field is the same as when you left. She is not doing anything and the wheat piles are still in the field. Don't worry, Gu. Wait for me to go back and boil the medicine for you, and let your uncle go to the field to help you harvest the wheat."

Aunt He hurriedly stopped him, saying that the child was almost exhausted and very weak, yet he still wanted to go to the fields to work. This was absolutely not allowed.

After hearing what Aunt He said, Gu Zhou became very worried and wanted to go anxiously, but he was stopped because of his poor health, so he had no choice but to give up.

"Thank you for your help, auntie."

"Of course not. It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. You are the only children left in your family. Given the relationship between our two families, it won't be any trouble for your aunt."

Thinking of Gu's health, Aunt He asked them what they wanted to eat before leaving and she would bring it over later.

"Don't worry, Auntie. Jiang Yu has left some food for us."

"She? She has never been in the kitchen. Is the food okay? Is it edible? No, I have to go check it out."

Aunt He was afraid that there was something wrong, so she hurried to the kitchen to check.

When Aunt He entered the kitchen, she saw that it was tidy. One of the two large stoves was opened a little, and a bowl of rice porridge was placed next to it. The other pot was opened and it was full of steamed buns. The buns were very well made, with a few shiny vegetable spots on the slightly yellow dough. The moment the lid was opened, the pungent aroma of meat could be smelled.

Jiang Yu never cooks and even stays away from the kitchen. Aunt He is afraid that Gu Zhou is protecting her, so she insists that the food she cooks is from Jiang Yu.

Aunt He had nothing else to say. She had to go home quickly to make some medicine for Gu. The sooner the medicine went into his stomach, the faster he would get better. If he waited too long, he would become stupid.

Just when Aunt He returned home, Gu Zhou dragged his sick body out of the house. What his aunt said made him very worried about Jiang Yu's condition.

Gu Wei tried to stop him, after all, she was too young to resist Gu Zhou.

Before Gu Zhou went out, he asked his younger sister to look after his younger brother and he would be back soon.

Fortunately, it was not far from home. It took only a few minutes to walk down the hill to reach his home. Gu Zhou supported his weak body and forced himself to walk for more than ten minutes. Finally, when he was sweating and about to give up, he arrived at the place.

Before I got close, I saw that the wheat in a field had been harvested and neatly tied up and placed at the edge of the field.

Gu Zhou walked slowly, and was still quite far away from her when he saw her. He could see that he was busy, but he couldn't see what exactly he was doing.

When he got closer, he saw Jiang Yu with his back to him, tying up a pile of wheat with a rope, humming something, and sounded like he was in a very good mood.

When she reached back to touch something, Gu Zhou noticed that the wheat pile was tied with straw ropes made of willow grass at the edge of the field.

Jiang Yu didn't turn around and tried to touch it again, but couldn't find it. So Gu Zhou bent down, picked up the piece and handed it to her palm.

At that moment, Jiang Yu stood up instantly.

~~~~~

"Aren't you still sick? Why did you come out? You little brat, why aren't you listening?"

Shen Wu didn't notice the tone of her voice when she spoke, it was exactly like an adult talking about her disobedient younger brother.

"My aunt came to my house and talked about the wheat in the field. I was a little worried, so I came to take a look."

Gu Zhou was supported by her and sat on the ground, his voice still weak.

Shen Wu was a little embarrassed and cleared his throat: "Ahem~ Well, I met your aunt before. Maybe she misunderstood something because I was resting, so she said she would come over to help harvest the wheat."

Then she changed her tone and said happily: "Look, I've already made two pieces. I think I can finish them this morning. So don't bother me, okay?"

In fact, Gu Zhou had never expected that she could do the farm work so neatly and cleanly. After listening to her aunt's words, he was afraid that she would leave like she did before because of her aunt's words.

Now it seems that amnesia is a good thing for her.
