Chapter 71 I’m so tired, why not pretend to be sick?
Shi Luo is still very satisfied with his current life. He eats, drinks, and dates every day, and has no financial pressure. However, it would be even better if he could not do farm work.
Shi Luo looked at the peanuts in his hand and felt a little annoyed. He stood up and pounded his waist.
The double harvest is the most important day of the year, and it determines whether or not people can have enough to eat in the coming year.
So not only did Shi Luo not dare to be too lazy, even Jiang Hao was warned in advance by his father, Captain Jiang.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Shi Luo secretly peeled a peanut and ate two fresh peanut kernels.
Shi Luo chewed the peanuts in his mouth, feeling happy. Although he didn't lack this little bit of food, it was really the only consolation for him working here.
Alas, this peanut tastes really better than those stored in the space. Is it because it is the result of my own labor?
Shi Luo was about to bend down to continue picking peanuts when he heard shouting from the other side of the field.
"Oh my God, Lin Yue fainted again."
When Shi Luo heard Lin Yue, he bent down and continued working without even looking at her.
That’s right, Shi Luo was no longer surprised. From the beginning of the autumn harvest to now, Lin Yue had fainted no less than ten times. Every time, the barefoot doctor in the village would say that Lin Yue had heatstroke.
But no matter what the barefoot doctor said, Shi Luo felt that Lin Yue was just pretending, because every time he returned to the Youth League Home for dinner after work, Shi Luo could see Lin Yue full of energy in the yard, and could eat two steamed buns in one meal.
Moreover, Lin Yue fainted regularly, once every two days. Every time she fainted, she had to go back and rest for half a day before returning to work the next day.
In fact, not only Shi Luo, but everyone in the Youth League Home thought that Lin Yue was faking illness. The youth who ate with Lin Yue even warned her.
If the work points Lin Yue earns this year are not enough for her annual food rations, then Lin Yue will be separated and dealt with separately.
Lin Yue was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. She never took what the educated youth said seriously. She still fainted and rested on time.
The captain also talked to Lin Yue several times, but Lin Yue was thick-skinned and ignored it.
Seeing that Lin Yue didn't care whether she could eat enough in the future, Jiang Jianguo stopped caring about her.
After all, it will be Lin Yue who will starve.
Anyway, based on the work points Lin Yue currently earns, she will definitely go hungry, but if she eats frugally, she probably won't starve to death.
Shi Luo continued to pull out the needles for another half an hour, and then began to consider whether he should pretend to faint. While taking the opportunity to rest, he heard someone not far away shouting that Xu Jing had fainted.
Hearing this, Shi Luo became interested. It was the first time in the world that Xu Jing fainted.
Shi Luo didn't even bother picking the peanuts, and just ran over.
When I looked over, I saw Xu Jing lying on the ground with a pale face.
Shi Luo not only saw Xu Jing, but also saw Xie Chen who was looking at Xu Jing nervously.
Shi Luo scratched his head. Hey, hasn't this guy made up his mind to stay away from Xu Jing and love, and to make money seriously in the future? He looks worried and doesn't seem to have let it go. Could it be that their old love has rekindled?
Shi Luo didn't quite understand. He had never seen Xie Chen and Xu Jing have any contact with each other. It was really strange.
If Xie Chen knew what Shi Luo was thinking, he would definitely cry out in injustice, because he really didn't like Xu Jing now, and he really didn't plan to fall in love and get married in the future.
Xu Jing's death in the previous life was indeed caused by himself.
So Xie Chen always felt guilty. Even if he didn't want to be with Xu Jing in this life, he still hoped that Xu Jing could be safe and happy in this life.
So if Xu Jing really has difficulties, Xie Chen is willing to help if he can.
That's why after hearing that Xu Jing fainted, he hurried over to check on her. As for his nervous expression, it was because he suddenly remembered that Xu Jing also had a pale and calm face when he died in his previous life.
After the team leader had a doctor examine Xu Jing, he learned that she had fainted again due to heatstroke, so he asked other female educated youth to help Xu Jing back to the educated youth home to rest.
In fact, there are always a few people who suffer from heatstroke during the autumn harvest in the brigade every year, but there are basically no such cases as today when two people fainted.
Jiang Jianguo looked at the sun above his head, then looked at the members who were wearing headscarves and sweating profusely, and felt a little worried.
After calling Accountant Wang and discussing with the doctor, the three of them picked out a few children aged eight or nine and asked them to go to the canteen where the brigade set up a joint to make some cooling tea.
However, because it was cooked late, the brigade members did not drink this bowl of cooling tea until they got off work at noon.
However, everyone still drank a large bowl before going back to eat.
When Shi Luo returned to the Youth League Home, Jiang Hao had already brought back lunch.
Since the autumn harvest, Shi Luo has been eating lunch made by Liu Cuihua every day.
Shi Luo originally refused, not because he didn't like the food Liu Cuihua cooked, but because he felt that Liu Cuihua was already very busy cooking for the whole family every day, and it would be inappropriate for him to trouble her at this time.
Jiang Hao felt that since it was the busy farming season, his mother would go home early to cook. Although cooking for a family was quite busy, it wouldn't be a big deal if it only involved Shi Luo, it would just be a matter of adding some more rice.
Shi Luo couldn't leave work early at noon. If he waited until he got off work to cook, not only would he be tired, but the time spent on eating and cooking would be so long that the entire lunch break might not be enough.
