The largest backpack is used, and children are more useful at this time. Children who are shorter can move more easily in the cornfield and are responsible for filling the backpack with corn until it is full.
Then the corn was transported to the village wheat field.
Of course, the wheat field is only temporarily left there because it will rain in a few days.
However, before these corns are carried over, they must be husked first and then woven together in bunches so that they can be hung in the village warehouse. If they are piled directly in the warehouse, if it rains for too long, heat will accumulate in the middle of the piled corns and the corns will rot.
This is just the beginning, and we have to finish it before the heavy rain comes.
After the corn is harvested, the corn stalks in the field must be cut off and every inch of the land must be plowed with an ox cart. Of course, when there are not enough oxen in the village, people have to pull the plow.
The land has to be plowed again before the next crop can be planted, and all this must be done before the next crop is planted.
Autumn harvest is not just harvesting, it is also the beginning of a series of labor.
Of course, this is all later.
It's already very tiring.
For people who usually chat while working, this is just a simple conversation.
I even want to save time for drinking water.
No one dared to be lazy at this time. If the fruits of half a year's hard work could not be harvested before the heavy rain, there would not be much food left.
I wonder how many families are looking forward to this life-saving food.
Tang Wan didn't even raise her head while working.
The weather was very hot, especially in the cornfield, which was surrounded by dense corn and there was no air to breathe.
The only coolness on my body was the fur on my neck, but it didn't take long for it to become warm.
Fortunately, the corn is relatively tall, so at least the sun won’t shine directly on us.
At this time, Tang Wan no longer had the energy to pay attention to who was around her. The people carrying corn came quickly, so they had to speed up to break the corn and not waste time.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Wan felt that she had become numb from repeating the action of breaking corn. Only when she was breaking the corn could she breathe the outside air, and then she had to rush back into the cornfield.
Although she was wearing long sleeves, the tingling sensation brought by the corn leaves still did not let Tang Wan go.
Tang Wan broke off the last corn in the two rows, breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the hair on her neck to wipe the sweat off her face, and shook the hair by her ear to bring in a little breeze.
Tang Wan now felt like her waist was not her own and she didn't dare to lift it up. If she straightened it a little she would feel pain in her waist.
It was only the morning that had passed.
"Here." A big hand with bony joints appeared in front of Tang Wan. The water in the hand was what Tang Wan needed most now.
Tang Wan had already finished the jar of water she had brought with her.
Not knowing why Qin Zheng looked at her first, Tang Wan took the water from his hand and said, "Thank you. Have you had some?"
"I've drunk it. I still have some here, you can drink some first." Qin Zheng said.
Tang Wan didn't even bother to answer him at this moment. She took two big gulps, so eagerly that drops of water flowed down the corners of her lips.
"Drink slowly, I have some more here." Qin Zheng naturally picked up the hairpin by Tang Wan's ear to help her wipe the water stains from the corner of her lips.
"I see. Have you sent it to grandma?" Tang Wan felt alive only after drinking the water.
"I've sent it off. Does your waist hurt?" Qin Zheng did not miss Tang Wan's unconscious behavior of rubbing her waist.
