Chapter 89 It’s great to have a partner
The people in the team are all experienced in farming, so Su Heng and the others don't have to worry about harvesting the wheat.
Everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other. One group harvested the wheat, and another group carried it. They carried the bundles of wheat to the threshing ground in a busy and orderly manner.
There was also a group of people on the field responsible for threshing the wheat and drying the seeds.
Su Heng has been very busy these days because the experimental field they planted also needs to be harvested.
Captain Zhao originally wanted to have someone cut it for them together, but everyone was busy and Pu Fengliang didn't want to take advantage of the crowd.
Since the land was not that big, the three teachers and students took it over themselves.
Autumn harvest is more laborious than spring sowing, and harvesting wheat is also very tiring for the waist, but Su Heng is only responsible for harvesting in the field.
Pu Fengliang and Zhang Xinghe took care of Su Heng because she was a female comrade and did not let her carry the wheat. Instead, they carried the wheat back on shoulder poles.
Lu Mingchuan wanted to come back to help, but he was about to leave and had been busy with various things at the factory and had no time to spare.
Su Heng once again truly felt how hard it was to get the food on the plate.
But a good harvest is the best.
After being busy for several days, Su Heng noticed that the air had become stuffy and the weather, which had originally turned cool, became hot again.
The leaves on the trees were silent and motionless, and there was not a trace of wind.
"Professor, it seems like things are going to change."
Pu Fengliang also sensed the impending storm: "We need to intensify our efforts."
The wheat was threshed as it was harvested, so as soon as the wheat in the field was harvested, the open space in front of the warehouse was already filled with threshed wheat to dry in the sun.
But such a threshing ground was obviously not enough, so everyone transported some more wheat to the brigade's threshing ground to thresh the grains.
The unusually hot and humid weather has strained everyone's nerves, and the most feared thing during the autumn harvest is this kind of sudden rain.
Especially this year, we worked hard for the entire summer, and it rained just at the critical moment of autumn harvest.
"Comrades, hold on tight!"
"Work harder! The wheat will be useless if it gets soaked by the rain!"
"Hurry, put the threshed wheat into the warehouse first!"
The sky is filled with dark clouds and the tense atmosphere affects everyone.
A large group of people went out. There was still a lot of wheat piled on the field that had not been threshed. The stone roller could not turn it, so everyone took buckets and held poles to manually knock the wheat grains into the buckets.
Song Wan, Chen Xiang and others also came to help.
It is said that there is strength in numbers, but God also gives us some face.
As soon as the last bit of wheat was carried into the warehouse, raindrops as big as beans began to fall down.
No one blamed the rain for not coming. The rain, which had been delayed for several months, finally fell, and their worries were finally put to rest.
As long as there is rain, we don’t have to worry about fleeing famine next year.
"Oh my god, it's finally raining!"
"Yes, go ahead, go ahead. Go ahead, the river is dry. If you don't go down now, you won't have any water to drink."
Everyone was very happy, and many people ran home to get basins of water.
Some young men ran to take a shower in the rain, screaming and howling, and were caught by their parents by pulling their ears and taking them back.
Su Heng, Song Wan and the others took shelter under the eaves, planning to wait until the rain stopped before leaving.
But he saw Chen Xiangnan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He hesitated for a moment, but still walked towards Su Heng.
"Su Heng, I brought a bamboo hat with me. Let me lend it to you first."
Su Heng has changed a lot. She has become so outstanding and dazzling that he is already a little discouraged.
But if I say I’m not moved when I see him again, it would be a lie.
Su Heng politely declined: "No, you can use it yourself."
Chen Xiangnan was about to say something, but Chen Xiang said with a sullen face, "Third brother, if you really want to get wet in the rain, just give me your hat. I don't have one with me."
Chen Xiangnan turned a deaf ear to her and just said to Su Heng, "You really don't want it? This rain is very cold..."
"Need not."
"Okay then." Chen Xiangnan then looked at Chen Xiang: "Here, it's for you."
Chen Xiang was so angry that she almost laughed, but after looking at the rain, she still took the hat.
She said to Su Heng and the other two, "It looks like the rain won't stop for a while. I'll go back and get you hats."
"Then it's up to you."
"Leave it to me!" she said and rushed into the rain.
But as soon as Chen Xiang left, Su Heng heard the ring of a bicycle bell. It was Lu Mingchuan who had returned.
As expected, he was soaked like a drowned rat.
The rain blocked his vision, and he combed his slightly long hair back with his hands into a big slicked back bun.
His handsome features were exposed, and even the rain did not diminish his handsomeness.
"Wait here, I'll go back and get the hat to pick you up."
He said this and sped away.
Su Heng had no choice but to say to Song Wan and Luo Yan, "Tell Chen Xiang about this later."
The two of them just nodded in response, and the next second, a gentle male voice was heard.
"Wanwan, I brought you a hat. Let's go."
When they turned around, they saw Cheng Yi, who was also wet, walking towards them with a bamboo hat in his hand.
Song Wan looked at Luo Yan.
Luo Yan nodded: "I know, I'll tell Chen Xiang."
So when Chen Xiang brought the hat, she only saw Luo Yan and her brother waiting for her under the eaves.
Originally, Luo Yan's brother had also brought her a bamboo hat, but he had been entrusted with an important task by the other two, so she had no choice but to wait here for Chen Xiang to come back.
…
Chen Xiang: "Having a partner is amazing!"
Chen Xiang felt that she had been badly let down.
Su Heng returned home. Since he was riding a bicycle, he got wet even though he was wearing a hat. He quickly boiled some water to take a shower.
Especially Lu Mingchuan, his clothes were completely wet after being rained all the way.
Su Heng called out to him, "Lu Mingchuan, is your leg okay?"
It was so painful when it rained before, I was worried that he would have sequelae.
However, Su Heng's special ability was obviously very effective, and Lu Mingchuan shook his head.
He chuckled and said, "It doesn't hurt at all. Thanks to Dr. Su's treatment, my leg is healthier than before the injury."
Su Heng snorted softly: "I'm glad to know. By the way, are you leaving in a few days?"
"Well, I won't be able to see you for more than half a month this time." Lu Mingchuan sighed lightly.
It was very uncomfortable to have wet clothes sticking to his body, so he took off his coat and threw it into the basin.
The vest inside was also completely wet and stuck to her body, making her even more seductive than not wearing anything.
Su Heng looked at his wild and unrestrained appearance and asked: "Can't you go back to the house and change into dry clothes?"
The pants were so tight on her body that she couldn't bear to look at them.
Lu Mingchuan's tone was innocent: "But I haven't taken a shower yet."
He is also a very particular person.
Su Heng turned away and silently added a few more firewood to the stove.
Who knew Lu Mingchuan would shamelessly come over and ask: "Why don't you watch it? It doesn't matter, just watch it, I'll only show it to you."
Su Heng: "Do you have a cold?"
"No, I'm very strong. It's just a little rain that won't make me sick."
"Then why did you start having a fever?"
…
Lu Mingchuan looked a little hurt.
He came over and squatted in front of Su Heng and said, "I'm going to be away for so long, don't you miss me?"
Su Heng couldn't stand his look a little bit, so she turned away and added another piece of firewood to the stove: "You haven't left yet."
"I started missing you before I even left." Lu Mingchuan held Su Heng's hand.
"Are you a kid? You're so clingy."
Su Heng leaned down, met Lu Mingchuan's expectant eyes, held his face with both hands, and kissed him gently.
Lu Mingchuan's eyes suddenly lit up frighteningly, like a big dog that had received a reward.
