After the two of them agreed, the next day, Lu Xia and Jiang Junmo continued to go up the mountain after work, just like everyone else.
Many people in the village also do this, because wild vegetables age quickly and if you don't hurry up, they won't wait for you.
So even though it was already late after work, there were still quite a few people on the mountain.
Lu Xia and Jiang Junmo were very quick and found a lot before dark, then they got down the mountain without any delay.
It was already dark when they got home, and they had to cook quickly.
They were both a little tired after a busy day, so they cooked dinner together and then lay down to sleep after dinner.
The next day, when Lu Xia got up, Jiang Junmo had already blanched and dried the wild vegetables from last night, and had also prepared breakfast, so she could eat and go straight to work.
Lu Xia understood that he wanted her to rest for a while longer, and she felt warm in her heart.
After working like this for three or four days, Lu Xia and the others who drank the spiritual spring water every day felt tired. But the people in the village and the educated youth camp were obviously so tired that they were staggering when they walked, but they still gritted their teeth and insisted on going up the mountain every day.
He really risked his life for these wild vegetables. Sometimes Lu Xia even admired him.
...
...
But such days soon could not continue.
Because the village started to plow the land.
Turning the soil sounds like a job that requires a lot of strength. It's even more strenuous than the previous job of digging the fence, but it's much more troublesome than that one.
In fact, there were cows in the village, and using cows to plow the soil was very fast, but there was only one cow in the village, and it was simply unable to handle all the work. Moreover, oxen were rare for farming these days, and this cow was the treasure of the village, so it was impossible to let it get tired. It only worked for a few hours a day and then rested. Therefore, plowing the soil could only be done by cows and manpower together.
Because I was too tired, after work every day, even my shoulders couldn't move, so I couldn't go up the mountain.
Although everyone felt a little regretful, there was nothing they could do about it. After all, the village could not affect farming just to allow everyone to pick wild vegetables in the mountains.
So they could only watch the wild vegetables on the mountain slowly grow and age...
Turning the soil is strenuous work, and even Lu Xia, who is quite strong, can hardly endure it. Fortunately, he drinks spiritual spring water twice a day, so he can hold on.
But it was not so for others. Several people from the village and the educated youth center fainted while working due to overwork.
But there is no way to stop. Spring ploughing cannot be delayed. Even if I feel tired and take a break, I have to get up and continue working.
Another thing happened during this period.
This is Zhuang Hongmei, who married Chen Er. I haven’t seen her for a whole winter after her marriage. Zhuang Hongmei has obviously gained weight and seems to be living well.
But she had to go to work after getting married. She was always lazy when digging the fence before, so she was scolded by the team leader. Later, she was taught a lesson by her mother-in-law and finally she became obedient.
But this time, when she was turning the soil, she started to feel unwell every few days and then fainted. When she was sent to the clinic, it was found that she was pregnant and had been three months pregnant.
This made her so happy that she stopped working. Now that she had a grandson, the Chen family agreed and let her do what she wanted.
After that, Chen Er was still nowhere to be seen all day long, but Zhuang Hongmei often went out for a walk with a barely visible belly, as if she was afraid that others would not know that she was pregnant.
She also went to the educated youth site a few times to show off, but everyone was too tired to pay attention to her.
Lu Xia had also looked at her a few times, but since the two of them didn't get along well, she just pretended not to see it.
Zhuang Hongmei wanted to come over. After all, she thought that Lu Xia got married before her and was not pregnant yet, so she must be envious of her at this moment.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xia ignored her completely, and even Jiang Junmo pretended not to see her, which made her very angry.
But Zhuang Hongmei was still a little afraid of Lu Xia, so she didn't dare to come up to him afterwards.
