I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Then, she stroked the wet hair on Liu Xiaoxiao's forehead with a look of concern, and said softly, "How long have you been working on this? Look at you, you're sweating all over. If you didn't know, you'd think you were just pulled out of the water! And your little face, how did it get so dirty? You're like a naughty little cat."

Liu Xiaoxiao chuckled, scratched her head and said, "Grandma, there's a lot of work in the fields. When I'm busy, I can't take care of my image."

Zhang Xiujuan smiled and shook her head, then took out a handkerchief and handed it to her.

"Wipe your face first. When I'm done, I'll ask Daya to bring you some hot water."

Liu Xiaoxiao took it obediently and asked, "Grandma, is there something you want to talk to me about?"

Zhang Xiujuan: "It's nothing serious. I just saw that you haven't been there for a long time and I was worried that you were tired in there, so I wanted to come over and take your place."

Liu Xiaoxiao stretched her shoulders and said, "I'm a little tired, really. But aren't you in charge of the situation over there? Is it okay to leave so suddenly?"

Zhang Xiujuan: "I've basically arranged everything that needs to be arranged. Your Aunt Qiao will take care of the rest! Nothing will go wrong."

Liu Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Okay, I was just about to plow the soil! Now that you're helping me, I think we can plant another crop today."

The grandfather and grandson smiled at each other, then went in hand in hand to turn the soil.

Just when the two of them were flipping vigorously.

Suddenly, Liu Xiaoxiao started to tell Zhang Xiujuan about the method she had just come up with to deal with the winter melon.

Zhang Xiujuan: "Your idea is good, but do you understand the specific steps involved?"

Liu Xiaoxiao: "Does theoretical knowledge count?"

Zhang Xiujuan: ...

Liu Xiaoxiao stopped teasing her and continued with a smile, "Even if I haven't really tried it, you guys are still here, right? We can try it slowly when the time comes! Winter melon doesn't cost money anyway."

Zhang Xiujuan: "Winter melon is free, but didn't you say you'd also coat it in sugar?"

Liu Xiaoxiao argued, "It's just a little bit of sugar, not much. And isn't business about trying more? How can we succeed on the first try? Besides, we didn't spend the money on the recipe, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Zhang Xiujuan: I feel a little convinced. What should I do?

In the end, Liu Xiaoxiao achieved her goal, and Zhang Xiujuan cooperated very well and paid the money.

After turning the land, Liu Xiaoxiao wanted to plant winter melons.

But Zhang Xiujuan objected. "I understand your idea, but we haven't succeeded yet. If we plant so many winter melons now, what will we do if we can't sell them?"

Liu Xiaoxiao wanted to tell the meaning of the foreshadowing picture, but there was no indication on it that she was selling it. If she told it now, it probably wouldn't be very convincing.

[Forget it, I can just plant the next crop.] She thought.

Since she wasn't going to plant winter melon, she figured it didn't matter what she planted. So, of course, the last thing she planted was corn, which Grandma Liu believed would fill her stomach.

Liu Xiaoxiao, who had just completed the two major tasks of harvesting and sowing, was so tired that she could hardly lift her hands.

As soon as she left the space, she collapsed on the mattress they slept on at night and said to Grandma Liu, "Grandma, let's lie down for a while before going out!"

Zhang Xiujuan replied with an equally exhausted "Yeah."

Just like that, when Zhu Yun and Cui'er carried the food into the house, they saw two people lying on the ground, almost dead.

Zhu Yun was fine, because she knew why they came there, so when she saw them acting like this, she understood that it was probably because they were too tired.

Cui'er, however, was quite different. When she saw Liu Xiaoxiao slumped on the mattress like mud, she wondered what kind of injury she had suffered. She was immediately terrified and panicked, almost dropping the plate in her hands.

Finally, it was Liu Xiaoxiao who shouted, "Hold on, hold on. If you lose this, I'll really starve."
