After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life
Chapter 112: Harvesting Wheat
During this period, the spring wheat matured and the team leader arranged for people to start harvesting the wheat.
When the alarm clock rang, Shen Xiaoxia didn't delay and got up and washed up directly.
I was too lazy to make breakfast, so I just took a portion of wontons and two buns from the warehouse and ate them.
Then I cleaned the room, kitchen and storage room.
When the third whistle sounded, I left the room and locked the door.
The others had just finished getting ready and were in the yard.
Shen Xiaoxia followed everyone to the fields.
Although it was still morning, the air was already filled with a hot and dry atmosphere.
The sun is like a tireless wheel of fire, starting its day's journey early!
Everyone parted at the village entrance and went to their respective work teams.
The sun shines unreservedly on the wheat fields. Looking around, the wheat seedlings are sparkling in the sunlight!
As the breeze blows, the wheat waves sway gently, rising and falling, making a rustling sound, as if telling people the joy of the harvest!
The air is filled with the fragrance of ripe wheat, a unique smell that is a mixture of sunshine, soil and wheat grains, which makes people feel relaxed and happy!
Shen Xiaoxia took a closer look. The wheat stalks were thick and strong, and their color was a little darker than that of the wheat ears, a rich golden yellow.
There are also subtle textures on the surface, which are the marks left by the passing of time and the growth of life.
Each texture records the caress of the sun, the moisture of the rain and dew, as well as their long journey of taking root in the soil and striving to grow upward!
The wheat leaves are slender and flexible, stretching outward, curling up the wheat grains inside, with tiny serrations on the edges, intertwined with each other.
The ears of wheat hang their heads slightly, and the grains on them are plump, round and closely arranged.
Aunt Guixiang saw Shen Xiaoxia staring at the wheat field in a daze and came over to talk to her, "Xiao Shen, what are you looking at?"
Shen Xiaoxia tilted her head to look at Aunt Guixiang, a smile on her face, and replied, "I'm thinking this year's wheat harvest will definitely be a bumper one!"
After hearing what Shen Xiaoxia said, Aunt Guixiang nodded vigorously. Her face, tanned red by the sun, was filled with eager anticipation for a good harvest. "Yes! We have to work harder these few days and harvest all the wheat as soon as possible!"
A good harvest of grain is what they want to see most!
Seeing that Shen Xiaoxia had nothing to do, Aunt Guixiang went to harvest the wheat.
Shen Xiaoxia turned around and looked around. The surrounding villagers had already started taking action.
Everyone bent over, holding a handful of wheat in their left hand and wielding a sickle in their right hand. With each movement, the wheat stalks were cut neatly.
The harvested wheat was neatly stacked at his feet.
Shen Xiaoxia also followed everyone's example, bending down, holding a handful of wheat with her left hand, and then holding the sickle tightly in her right hand to cut the wheat.
Although he was not as quick and efficient as the villagers, he was still able to successfully harvest a handful of wheat in one go.
It’s not like when I first came here last year, when harvesting wheat was like sawing firewood.
As time went by, the sun rose higher and higher, and the temperature became higher and higher.
Shen Xiaoxia felt particularly hot and stuffy, and had to wipe the sweat off her face with the towel hanging around her neck from time to time.
Otherwise, when the sweat flows into your eyes, you won’t be able to open them.
Her clothes had already been soaked with sweat and were sticking tightly to her back. The sticky feeling was really uncomfortable.
There were several large trees with lush branches and leaves beside the ridge, casting a large patch of mottled shade over the wheat field. Shen Xiaoxia took the opportunity to drink some water and took a short rest.
When the team leader looked at him for the third time, he went back to the field.
When the whistle sounded at noon, Shen Xiaoxia ran away immediately.
Since we're already off work, there's no need to be slow!
Shen Xiaoxia thought she would be the first one to come back, but she didn't expect that when she arrived, Han Zhuxin and Zhao Lingling had already returned.
The place where they started working was a little further away than Shen Xiaoxia's, but they came back faster than her?
"Why are you two running so fast today? I thought I was the first one back today too!"
The door of Zhao Lingling's room was open, and she must be cooking in the kitchen.
Han Zhuxin was standing under the eaves, drinking water with a cup in hand. When she heard Shen Xiaoxia's question, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her lips. "I was calculating the time to leave work when I started working, and then when it was almost time to leave, I sneaked towards the edge of the field. As soon as the whistle sounded, I slipped away!"
Shen Xiaoxia gave him a thumbs up and said, "Excellent!"
It’s a good idea, she will try it next time!
"So what are you planning to eat for lunch?"
Han Zhuxin was also troubled by this problem. She couldn't eat what she wanted to eat now. She could only eat a few things every day. "I'll go to the kitchen later and make whatever I can get."
It’s very casual too!
Shen Xiaoxia has a lot of options, but she is also very confused about what to eat every day.
The weather was too hot and she actually had no appetite. After much hesitation, Shen Xiaoxia finally decided to make some meat soup with some green vegetables for lunch.
Then when cooking rice, steam two eggplants and mix them with the sauce.
It's enough for her alone.
After lunch, I took a short nap. When the whistle sounded for the afternoon work, I went out to work with everyone else and continued to harvest wheat.
The sunlight at this hour was much stronger than in the morning, like a wild horse running out of control, with a fierce momentum!
The scorching sun shone directly down, and the entire wheat field seemed to be on fire, steaming hot!
Not long after, the clothes Shen Xiaoxia had just changed were soaked again. She now had to change three sets of clothes a day.
I wear one set of clothes when I go out in the morning, change into another set before going to bed at noon and wear it in the afternoon. When I get home from work in the afternoon, I will take a shower and change clothes first.
Change into pajamas when you go to bed at night.
Fortunately, the washing machine works, otherwise she wouldn't want to wash.
Anyway, the clothes were hung out to dry in the open space between her room and the kitchen, so no one knew how she washed them.
She simply stopped pretending and just threw them directly into the washing machine.
As the sun sets, the day's wheat harvesting task gradually draws to a close.
In the wheat fields, the hearty laughter of the villagers can be heard from time to time. The working villagers shuttle through the wheat fields, tying the harvested wheat into bundles.
Shen Xiaoxia was standing there wanting to rest for a while when Aunt Guixiang called her, "Little Shen, the educated youth..."
Shen Xiaoxia walked to her side, and Aunt Guixiang handed the rope in her hand to Shen Xiaoxia, "Come, help auntie tie it up."
Aunt Guixiang was pressing down the wheat pile with her knees. Shen Xiaoxia reached out and took the rope from Aunt Guixiang's hand, then bent down to pick up the other end of the rope on the ground, then pulled it tight with both hands and tied a knot.
The two of them worked together to bundle up all the wheat in the surrounding area.
