However, during this rush to harvest, the men and women had different tasks, so these two people were naturally assigned to two different places.

Seeing Xue Chengyu's unhappy face, Xue Chengjin could only patiently comfort him:

"Little Yu, be good. I believe you can do it. I'll come and help you once I'm done with my work!"

"Then you'd better come early, brother!"

"Yes, don't worry!"

As it turned out, Xue Chengyu had put her mind at ease too soon. Xue Chengjin couldn't even finish his own job, let alone have time to come and help her.

Xue Chengyu waited until noon to finish work, but her brother still hadn't come. Looking at the pile of unharvested corn she had accumulated, she suddenly became irritable.

"Ah...ah...when will this end?!"

After venting for a while, Xue Chengyu threw down the corn he hadn't finished husking and walked towards Xue Chengjin's direction.

At this time, most of the people in the field had already gone back to eat, and the two lonely siblings were quite conspicuous in the field.

"elder brother..."

When Xue Chengyu arrived, Xue Chengjin was still diligently cutting the corn stalks in his hands. He was already covered in sweat from exhaustion, but he still persevered.

"elder brother..."

Clearly, Xue Chengyu hadn't heard his earlier call of "brother," so he called out again.

This time, Xue Chengjin heard it. He turned around and looked at his sister who was walking over with some surprise.

"Xiaoyu, have you finished your work?"

Xue Chengyu's steps faltered for a moment, then he said with a wronged expression:

"Brother, didn't you say you'd come help me? I waited all morning and you didn't come, so I came to find you!"

"Little Yu, I've assigned a lot of work today, and I can't finish it all at once. Try your best to finish it yourself."

"But...brother...I really can't do it anymore, we haven't even eaten yet!"
