Chapter 228 Heartbreaking

After several trips back and forth, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan felt exhausted, so they locked the wire door and planned to find a big tree to enjoy the shade.

When the two of them arrived, there were already quite a few people under the tree. Because of the warning from the Qinghe Alliance, no one dared to delay and came out to work in the scorching sun.

But after all, they have been city dwellers for decades, and few of them can do farm work. They were already extremely tired when they were sowing the seeds, let alone now.

After all, the weather is cool in spring and there are few mosquitoes, so it's okay to take off your clothes and roll up your sleeves when you feel hot.

But now, the temperature is 37 or 38 degrees, and I still have to wear long sleeves and long pants, and wrap myself up completely so that not even a tiny gap can be seen.

Not only are there mosquitoes flying around in the fields, but there are also bugs running around, and even the sunlight is waiting for an opportunity to tan people into a charcoal black.

It really is not easy!

When Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan sat under the tree, they did not attract any attention. After all, there were so many people working around, and everyone came here to rest when they were tired.

Moreover, everyone had their heads and faces covered, so unless you were an acquaintance, it would be impossible to recognize who was who.

The two of them sat quietly on the rocks under the tree, and they heard a group of aunts complaining not far away.

"What kind of world is this? I have to work in the fields after work. It's fine to work in the fields, but there are mosquitoes and locusts here. Is God trying to stop us from living?"

"Come on, Qinghua Country is already pretty good. Look at which country is as comfortable as ours!"

"I'm not saying that our Qinghua Country is bad, I just feel wronged.

It was so good before. I only had to go to work every day, I didn’t have to farm, and I could eat whatever I wanted. Now, my family has money, but I can’t buy anything!”

"At least we can fill our stomachs now. Don't you see how many people starve to death abroad, not to mention those who are sick? As a human being, we should be content with what we have."

"Okay, okay, come on, I just want to vent my grievances and you insist on pulling me into a positive attitude. Oh, let's not talk about this anymore, I'm going to get to work!"

"Haha, that's how Sister Yan should be. Back then, Sister Yan was a model worker in our unit!"

"Yes, we should learn from Sister Yan!"

The older sister called Sister Yan stood up, brushed off the dust on her butt and prepared to go back to the fields to continue working.

But before she left, she complained to her group of old sisters, which almost made Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan find a crack in the ground to crawl into in embarrassment.

Sister Yan said: "Who is so talented that he came up with the idea of putting barbed wire around the field? It made it impossible for me to find a harvester..."

As soon as Sister Yan finished speaking, the group of older women burst into laughter. They all knew that Sister Yan was just talking.

However, one of the older sisters joked, "Old sister, if there were no barbed wire, could you really get a harvester for our Green Lemon Mountain?"

Sister Yan laughed, "It's not a problem to get a harvester, the key is that it can't climb up Green Lemon Mountain!"

After Sister Yan finished speaking, she left with a smile. The others also joined in the laughter and continued to talk about everything under the sun.

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan looked at each other and laughed. Wasn't it they who came up with the bad idea of the barbed wire?

However, it was recognized by the majority of owners at the time, otherwise everyone would not have followed the trend to enclose farmland and even raise chickens and pigs in it.

But I have to say that if they could find a harvester or something, the farmlands at the foot of the mountain could be harvested in less than half an hour, unlike them, who have to work hard for a day or two.

Moreover, other people's harvesters harvest corn kernels directly, unlike theirs, which are corn cobs with the husks on.

Shen Yanming had originally thought about whether or not to build a road so that agricultural machinery could pass through.

But he thought that the location at the back of Qingning Mountain was chosen because the transportation was not so convenient and one had to pass through the residential area to enter and exit, so there was no problem with safety.

If we really want to build a big road behind the mountain, that would be putting the cart before the horse.

Besides, how much farm work can be done on one acre of land? It’s just that they don’t work normally, so the speed is so slow.

If they were farmers, they would have probably finished their work and gone home to rest.

After Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan had rested enough, they returned to the fields. They had to break the corns and bring them back home in one go, otherwise they couldn't guarantee whether they would come out a second time.

Unfortunately, although the two had beautiful ideas, their strength did not allow it to be realized.

After the sun set, the two men picked all the corn from their fields and transported it back in boxes.

When it came to the last box, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan each carried one side and brought the storage box to the door with heavy steps.

Then the door opened, the box was carried in, and when the door was closed, the two of them sat down on the ground, not caring about anything else.

Bi Qiaoan felt that his arms were not arms and his legs were not legs.

The reason she was able to hold on until now was definitely because of her belief that she didn't want to go to the next day. Unfortunately, her belief collapsed.

Now she just wants to lie down and be a salted fish!

After Shen Yanming sat on the ground for a while, he found that Bi Qiaoan began to lie on the ground with his limbs spread out.

Although she was wearing long sleeves and long pants and would not catch a cold in the summer, he just didn't want to let his wife lie on the ground like this.

I can’t really say why, it’s just an instinctive rejection.

Shen Yanming couldn't stand up anymore, so he sat on the ground and moved towards Bi Qiaoan.

Only after he lay down and held her in his arms did he whisper in her ear, "Let's go into the space bubble and have a good sleep."

Bi Qiaoan did not refute. After all, the two of them worked hard all day and their clothes were almost soaked with sweat. It was only because they went back home to cool off during the hottest time of the day at noon, otherwise they would definitely have heatstroke by now.

After entering the space, the two raised their heavy arms to take off their dirty clothes, and then soaked in the warm bath water and fell asleep.

In order to help each other recover quickly, Shen Yanming also poured a cup of spiritual spring water into the bathtub.

The effect of the spiritual spring water was really amazing. My originally sore limbs began to become less stiff, and my skin, which had been sunburned pink, began to return to its whiteness.

It was at this time that Bi Qiaoan remembered that they still had those small blue and black fruits. Didn’t Shen Yanming say that there was a kind of fruit that could quickly restore physical strength after eating it?

Bi Qiaoan covered his face with his hands and said to Shen Yanming: "We are so stupid. We forgot about those magical little fruits."

Shen Yanming was also stunned for a moment, "It seems that some pills can also eliminate fatigue."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something.

After Shen Yanming finished speaking to Bi Qiaoan in a somewhat stiff tone, the two of them had the same expression that was hard to describe.

It seems that they have suffered for nothing, it is really heartbreaking...
