The next day, Yuan Lai got up and looked at the date. It was the 24th, less than a week had passed.

Isn’t it said that time passes quickly in dreams? Why doesn’t it work for her?

After a simple breakfast, Yuan Lai found the leash used by Yuanbao in the corner of the house and put it on Hongbao.

"It has a different taste!" Hongbao said reluctantly.

Yuan Lai adjusted the size and insisted on taking the red envelope out of the door, "Just make do with it for now, and wait for Li Hao to buy you a new one."

Today's main plan of the three harvesters is to harvest the remaining fields. He Haonan chose Field No. 1, which is closest to the courtyard, while the others continued to harvest the edges.

Yuan Lai and Hong Bao were standing on the edge of the field watching ten people busying around, which made them feel sleepy.

"Tell me, isn't it a bad idea for us to look at it this way?"

Hongbao was lying on the ground, feeling very comfortable. "Go and help me, just carry me back."

"Forget it, I'll take you back after they finish work."

The fields became lively at this time.

"Shaoxi, if you can't hold me up, stop it! Look at Brother Gengyun."

"Who says I can't do it? This isn't easy."

Chen Shaoxi and Wang Yiheng started the competition again after just a few words. Carrying a large bundle of rice on their backs felt like carrying a mountain.

Zhuo Yuan followed behind to pick up rubbish, "You carry them all the way, and I will pick them up all the way."

Jiang Dunhao reminded his brothers, "Safety first."

Zhao Xiaotong brought his new invention, a white bucket with a rope attached, to the field.

"what is this?"

"I made it to move rice."

Yuan Lai touched the rope and said worriedly, "It will be very tight."

"You'll know if you try it." Zhao Xiaotong confidently carried the white bucket on his back.

The white bucket filled with rice was extremely heavy. Yuan Lai tried to lift it, but she couldn't lift it at all.

Li Hao rushed over upon hearing this. He was very interested in the white barrel and stood up unsteadily. "That's it. There's no challenge at all."

After carrying the rice to the shore, everyone sat on the edge of the field to eat.

“What should we do with all this rice?”

"After threshing and husking, it becomes the rice we eat."

"So we need a thresher, right?"

"I remember there was a blue one in the warehouse."

Yuan Lai followed He Haonan and Lu Zhuo Zhuoyuan to the warehouse to pull the blue semi-feed rice and wheat thresher to the field.

"Give me the manual. I'm an expert on this." Lu Zhuo took the manual and read it again and again, and finally spent a long time looking for the operating handle.

Yuan Lai took out his cell phone and asked, "How about we seek high-tech help?"

"It makes sense."

But learning it is one thing, and using it is another.

Lu Zhuo, Li Gengyun, Zhao Yibo and He Haonan took turns to try, but they were unable to successfully start the machine.

"Why is it still smoking?"

"Is it going to break? We can't afford to pay for this thing."

"Why don't we leave this for tonight and study it. Let's harvest the rice first. This is more urgent."

"Yes, let Shaoxi come. He's a college student. Let him try."

Yuan Lai looked at the despised thresher on the roadside and secretly picked up the instruction manual.

Chen Shaoxi was given high hopes by his brothers, but he was unable to successfully start the machine.

In the end, perhaps the director team couldn't bear to watch it anymore and found someone to do a demonstration.

The machine looks small, but it has four steps to start.

After reading it, Chen Shaoxi's confidence increased instantly, "I think I can do it, I'll give it a try."

As Chen Shaoxi pulled the rope, the thresher stopped moving in the silent air.

Tried many times, all failed.

"What's going on? Why isn't it working? What went wrong?"

"Skill." Yuan Lai kindly reminded that it is not just about having great strength.

Li Hao suddenly laughed, "You are so clever, and your use of the erhua sound is very clever. Jinger."

After continuous attempts, Zhao Xiaotong finally succeeded and started the machine.

With the successful precedent, Jiang Dunhao and Li Gengyun subsequently successfully started the machine.

Shaoxi was alone and disheveled beside him.

He was the only one injured in the world.

"Come on, start threshing!"

"Get a bag and catch it."

"I'm coming!"

Others brought the rice from the fields to the shore and fed it into the machines for processing. Rice went in, straw came out, and all the grains went into bags.

Li Hao walked over quickly and walked around the machine. He leaned close to Yuan Lai and whispered, "Can you help me with a little favor?"

Yuan Lai rode an electric bike to the town and bought a birthday cake according to Li Hao's request.

Today is Lu Zhuo's birthday, and it is also the first birthday for this group of people since they came to the field, so a sense of ceremony must be maintained.

She put the cake in the refrigerator at home and waited for Li Hao to pick it up at night.

Due to poor visibility at night, Zhao Yibo accidentally bumped into an electric wire, causing the machine to malfunction and unable to harvest, so he had to finish work early.

"Oh, I wish I hadn't taken that. What was I thinking at the time? I knew it was dark there, but I still went there."

"It's ok."

"too dark."

Afterwards, Zhao Xiaotong's harvester also went on strike, and only He Haonan's harvester was still working.

Looking at everyone working hard to harvest rice under the lights, Yuan Lai stood up, turned to the director and said, "How about we stop here today, Director? It's too dark."

"I have reminded them, but they insist on finishing the rice fields today and finishing field number five tomorrow."

The red envelope rolled on the ground and said, "I'm hungry. I want to eat."

Yuan Lai walked to the front of the grain cart and watched He Haonan fill the last bit of space. "Brothers, let's stop here today. The grain cart is full."

"Who will deliver the crops today?" Jiang Dunhao put the sickle on the edge of the field and took a sip of water.

"Zhuo Yuan and I, we'll go together." Lu Zhuo and Zhuo Yuan followed the truck to the grain station to dry the grain, while the others went home.

Li Hao, who had finished his work, took the rope and picked up the red envelope. "It seems like you've gained weight."

If Hongbao only ate snacks today, how could he not get fat?

Looking at Yuan Lai following behind him, Wang Yiheng asked doubtfully, "Aren't you going to get off work?"

Yuan Lai thought, I want to get off work too!

"Oh, the colleague on duty today has a sick child, so I'm filling in for him."

Back in the courtyard, Li Gengyun was the first to open the lunch box in the thermos bucket and smiled with satisfaction, "The food is good today."

Eight people lined up in a row, each eating with relish, and while eating, they did not forget to arrange their work for tomorrow.

"We harvested a lot today, and we will probably be able to harvest all the rice by tomorrow."

“Who would have thought it would take us so many days to harvest the rice?”

"Is this enough rice for ten of us?"

"Did you leave any food for them?"

"I'll keep it."

"Li Hao, have you discussed it with Zhuo Yuan? How should we celebrate Lu Zhuo's birthday?"

"Everything has been discussed. Just cooperate with me later."

Lu Zhuo and Zhuo Yuan returned home and couldn't wait to start eating.

Yuan Lai and Li Hao took the opportunity to get the cake.

Li Hao was waiting outside the door. Yuan Lai took out the cake and the two returned to the courtyard, where they met Zhuo Yuan who had just finished his meal.

"Give me the cake. I'll hide it in room one."

Zhuo Yuan found another way, avoiding Lu Zhuo's sight and putting the cake under the bed.

It's not impossible, but can we move our shoes a little further away?
