"Captain, Huang Zhiqing has fainted."
After everyone finished eating the food they brought, less than an hour after they started working, an educated youth came running to Bai Lianshan and told him the bad news in a panic.
Bai Lianshan was sweating profusely while harvesting wheat in the field when he heard about this. He wanted to curse in his heart.
"Didn't I tell you how to protect yourself from the sun?! They are asked to do six work points a day, and they can't even do it?! Send her to the clinic now."
It has been half a month since these new educated youth came here. He had people teach them step by step and pass on his experience in advance. Even for such an important event as the autumn harvest, he asked these new educated youth to do six work points a day. How could they not persist?!
Bai Lianshan was so worried.
녦, even though he cursed and swore, he still quickly led his men over.
He had to instruct a woman to carry the man to the production team's clinic. It was not until Uncle Jiu diagnosed that the man had a heat stroke and that he would be fine after a good rest that Bai Lianan left with peace of mind.
"Mom, I want to go back and change that."
When doing the next step, Zhou Wanwan quietly walked to Qiao Jiuru's side, spoke to her in a low voice, and took a look at herself.
Qiao Jiuru immediately understood that his daughter-in-law was having her period.
This is inevitable for women, and the autumn harvest lasts for more than a month. If you are lucky, it will come just once, and if you are unlucky, it will come twice.
Moreover, besides being tiring, autumn harvest was also a bit hot, which made people feel very uncomfortable, not to mention that they were bleeding for several days.
Being a woman is so troublesome and life is so difficult.
"I'll go talk to the scorekeeper and tell him we'll be back to work overtime for as long as we've been gone, so we can finish work later."
Qiao Jiuru decided to go back with Zhou Wanwan. She would solve her own problem and then let her two grandsons go back to eat something delicious.
Zhou Wanwan had no objection to having her mother-in-law accompany her back home, as she was somewhat worried about safety issues if she went back alone.
Although everyone is busy working in the fields now, those vagrants have to go to the fields to work, but who knows? ! What if? !
Qiao Jiuru went to find the scorer and the team leader to explain the situation. They would work overtime to finish the delayed time, and it would not affect everyone's progress.
The brigade had held a meeting before regarding the issue of female comrades and had already come up with a solution. So when Qiao Jiuru first mentioned it, the team leader and the scorekeeper immediately agreed.
Seeing this, Zhou Meihua, who was not far away, ran over quickly, asked for leave from the team leader and scorekeeper, and went back with Qiao Jiuru, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, to solve the problem.
Dabao and Xiaobao were sitting in the threshing field helping out. The two little guys looked very similar. Uncle Jiu and Bai Lianshan, as well as the respected elders in the production team, looked after them. The children in the production team, both big and small, did not dare to bully them. Instead, they loved playing with the two brothers.
The two little brothers are never spoiled. They are sweet-talkers, good-tempered, and especially lovable-looking. Both adults and children take good care of them, and now they feel at home among the children.
Qiao Jiuru was going back to relieve himself now, so he naturally went to find the two guys first and brought them back to eat something.
When Dabao and Xiaobao saw their grandmother coming to pick them up, they rushed over without saying a word and left together.
When Zhou Wanwan, Zhou Meihua, Qiao Jiuru, Dabao and Xiaobao were passing by Uncle Jiu's house, they saw a pale and thin female educated youth sitting against the wall outside the door, staring at the sky with lifeless eyes.
"Grandma, big sister, what's wrong?!"
"Su Xinghai, elder sister is sick."
Xiao Bao opened his eyes with curiosity and watched the educated youth girl looking up at his grandmother in a baby voice. He knew that was his ninth great-grandfather's home, a place where people received medical treatment.
When Dabao heard his brother's words, he immediately thought that he was so stupid. What was he doing at Uncle Jiu's house? So he called his brother's name in a baby voice, saying that he knew he understood.
"If you are sick, take medicine. I am afraid."
"I feel uncomfortable. I need to go to sleep."
Xiaobao patted his chest and said fearfully, frowning his two caterpillar eyebrows.
The older brother agreed with his younger brother's words. Dabao kept nodding and responding in a baby voice.
Qiao Jiuru and the other three couldn't help laughing after hearing what the two brothers said, but they didn't say anything to interrupt their conversation.
Tao Aihua, who was sitting in the house, heard footsteps not far away. She forced herself to look towards the footsteps despite her weak body.
Three women and two children.
Although his body was covered with patches, he looked very clean and tidy, and his complexion was good, which was completely different from himself.
After taking a closer look, Tao Aihua recognized these women and children. They were the people who were sent down from the production team. I heard that there was a family living at the foot of the mountain here, and it seemed that they were these people.
She had a conflict with her family and decided to go to the countryside. It was Luo Jie who helped her choose this production team, saying that the production team here was quite good to the educated youth.
After coming here more than ten days ago, she now feels something.
"Xiao Wan, go wash up first and don't eat anything cold."
After returning home, Qiao Jiuru told his daughter-in-law that she would take out the sanitary napkins she bought from the Overseas Chinese Store and give them to Zhou Wanwan every three months.
The mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and their daughter Su Huazhu were very frugal with these things, not because they were expensive, but because they had money but nowhere else to buy them.
The three women used it for the first two or three days, and then they used the two types of menstrual pants designed by Qiao Jiuru.
One is the menstrual pants which were specially designed by Qiao Jiuru based on sanitary napkins. A small piece of cloth is sewn at the front and back ends of the underwear, and then the toilet paper is folded and stuffed into the sewn cloth strips at the two ends.
The other is a modified version of the menstrual belt, which is simply a simple version of the menstrual belt with a few spring strings.
And every three months, Qiao Jiuru would write to Fang Xinyu, sending her money and asking her to help buy some things from the Overseas Chinese Store and send them over.
Fang Xinyu never refused and sent these things to them on time every three months.
In addition to the three women in their family, after Zhou Meihua knew about it, she asked Qiao Jiuru to help bring some and got a lot of credit.
As for the toilet paper they used, Qiao Jiuru had prepared a lot of it when he was in Beijing before, stockpiling at least dozens of yuan. Although it has not been used up yet, every two months, Su Huazhu and the Song brothers and sisters would go to the commune to buy these necessities for everyone, and then secretly deliver them at night.
Zhou Meihua and Qiao Jiuru quickly went to the bathroom, then sat down to eat some steamed buns and drink some water.
Dabao and Xiaobao were eating snacks and drinking sweet water.
After a while, Zhou Wanwan had taken care of herself and felt refreshed. She quickly sat down to eat.
Qiao Jiuru and the others did not dare to waste time. After staying at home for less than ten minutes, they hurriedly took Dabao and Xiaobao to the fields.
However, when they passed by Uncle Jiu's house, Dabao and Xiaobao were taken away by Uncle Jiu.
Tao Aihua walked slowly behind them, her body still hadn't recovered much strength. Fortunately, she didn't have to go to the fields for the time being, because Uncle Jiu had just arranged for her to go to the threshing ground to look after the field.
Sitting in the sun-less place on the threshing floor, Tao Aihua felt sad and angry. Since coming here, she experienced the hard work of farming, and she was full of despair about the future, and there was no light or hope that she could see.
"Here comes the postman."
"The postman has delivered the mail again."
“…”
"Tao Zhiqing, you are here. There is a letter for you."
