After a day off, we started the formal wheat harvest the next day.
The weather in summer is like a baby's face, changing at any time.
The most feared thing when harvesting grain is rain. Not only will the harvested grain rot in the fields, but even if it is harvested, if it is not dried in time, the grain will become moldy, seriously affecting its quality.
So when farmers harvest crops, they are racing against time with God.
Every day, they had to get up at dawn. The team leader would divide the work and the task area in advance. The person in front would bend over and wield a sickle, constantly cutting the wheat. The people behind would collect the wheat on the ground and tie it into bundles.
If you move even a little slower, you will be a burden to others, so no matter how tired you are, you have to grit your teeth and keep working.
Fortunately, we work in pairs and can take turns bundling and harvesting wheat.
At noon, I take a half-hour break to eat and solve physiological problems.
There was not even time to light a fire, so they could only prepare dry food for the next day one day in advance. They ate their meals in the fields and swallowed them with water. The temperature or taste did not matter, as long as they could fill their stomachs and restore their strength.
After a short rest, they had to get up and continue working until the evening when no one could be seen in the fields anymore and the gong to signal the end of work was sounded.
Xu Manman was assigned to the same group as Wan Fang. Fortunately, after several months of training, although her movements were not fast, she was not lagging behind.
After working all day, her hands and feet were shaking with exhaustion. Although Wan Fang was an old educated youth, she was not much better off than Xu Manman when she got off work due to such high-intensity physical labor.
In the end, the two of them came back supporting each other.
When she returned to the educated youth site and saw that the other people were in similar conditions, Xu Manman really envied Xue Mingxin at this time. He went to training at this critical juncture and perfectly avoided the summer harvest.
Go back to the house, light the fire, and get ready to cook.
In fact, I was too tired and had no mood to cook. I just boiled some water, waited for the bathroom to be empty, and then carried a bucket of water in to cook.
When I returned to the space at night, I even had dinner by soaking in the hot spring.
She couldn't just sit there idle, Xiao Jin reminded her that the wooden door had stopped moving and was currently stationary.
The train usually rests for a while after arriving at the terminal. It should have arrived in Beijing and is now parked at Beijing Railway Station.
Just in case, Xu Manman still had to go there as soon as possible to deal with the follow-up.
Because it was night, Xu Manman wore dark clothes to facilitate movement, and also did some disguise, adding shoulder pads to her top, adding insoles to her shoes, and bunning her hair up and tucking it into her hat.
Liquid foundation darkened the exposed skin, thickened the eyebrows, and modified the nose and mouth.
In order to facilitate movement, she did not bring any large luggage and just carried a shoulder bag.
After confirming with Xiao Jin that there was no one in the carriage, he pushed open the wooden door and walked out.
The carriage was pitch black, and a little light from outside kept her from being blinded.
After turning the door into an icon and folding it up, Xu Manman walked forward. Fortunately, all the passengers had gotten off the bus, there was no one on the bus, and the door was not locked.
Xu Manman opened the door and got off the train. The train was parked on the track on one side of the train station. There were several trains parked on this side. It was a little far from here to the platform.
Although there were no passengers here, the train station staff would come to patrol. Xu Manman did not dare to be careless. She observed for a long time before she dared to walk out carefully.
The darkness was the greatest protection. She didn't go to the platform because it was brightly lit and would make her too conspicuous. Instead, she went to the other side where there was a barbed wire fence.
To be on the safe side, she also wore gloves, took out pliers, and cut a hole in the barbed wire. She held her breath the whole time, fearing that someone would come.
Only after finally passing through the barbed wire and leaving the train station did Xu Manman breathe a sigh of relief.
She didn't leave immediately. While no one was around, she took out the wire and repaired the barbed wire that she had cut earlier.
I have never done such a bad thing before, and the psychological pressure is quite great.
After finally getting it done, I left the scene. The first thing to do was to sign in on the map, so I had to go back to the main entrance of the train station.
It was clearly right across the street, but because there was a railway between them, by the time she finally reached the train station gate to sign in, it was already the middle of the night.
After signing in, Xu Manman hurriedly left the train station, found an empty alley, installed the wooden door, and then slipped into the space.
After a tiring day and night, I couldn't hold on any longer, so I went back to the space and lay down to sleep.
I slept for more than ten hours in the space. When I got up, my whole body was sore, but I still had to force myself to go out and continue working. It felt so painful.
After the summer harvest, corn, soybeans, etc. have to be planted immediately. This high-intensity labor will last for a month.
