Fortunately, the autumn harvest period does not last long, only about a week.
The villagers have finally collected all the grain after busy work, and are now drying it in the threshing floor, planning to dry the grain before it rains.
After hanging the corn for a few days, Lu Xia and the others started to get busy again. This time, they had no time to rest after dinner. They had to hurry to shell the corn kernels. There were no machines at the moment, so they had to do it manually.
Lu Xia's hands would hurt every time he rubbed them, but there was nothing he could do because everyone was like that.
Fortunately, it got better after I gradually mastered the skills.
It’s just that because he works at night, Lu Xia always feels like someone is following him when he goes to and from work these past two days.
Because her sensitivity increased after drinking the spiritual spring water, she felt that she was not wrong.
However, it was too dark and she didn't see anyone, but she didn't dare to be careless.
So after that, I would go out with everyone at night and never go out alone.
A few days passed like this and nothing happened.
...
...
After they have threshed the portion of corn that is to be given to the state, the rest belongs to the villagers. They no longer have to rush to work from dawn to dusk. They can take their time and do it during daytime work.
The villagers finally breathed a sigh of relief. The village chief organized people to deliver food to the town, and everyone else could take a temporary holiday to rest.
A few days passed, and just when Lu Xia thought that the people following her were going to give up, one day when she went to wash clothes, she felt someone staring at her again.
Lu Xia frowned, pretending not to know, and secretly looked around. Sure enough, he saw a dark shadow in the woods on the right.
Lu Xia's heart sank. She didn't know what was going on. She had been keeping a low profile since going to the countryside, and she didn't know why she was being targeted.
But this matter still needs to be resolved. It is not a good thing to be watched all the time. She has to take the initiative to resolve this matter so as to avoid being worried all the time.
So after returning to the educated youth point, Lu Xia went out again with the basket on his back.
After coming out this time, she felt that the people following her were still there, so she thought of the stones, sticks, and kitchen knives that she had stored in the space before. She made up her mind and walked towards the secluded place where she and Jiang Junmo usually cooked together.
Normally no one would come here. After Lu Xia walked here, he clearly felt that the people behind him were following him closer.
When she felt that the man had no scruples and was running towards her, Lu Xia reached back and took out a wooden stick from the basket on her back (actually the space).
He turned around and hit him hard.
“Ouch!”
The wooden stick hit the man directly on the forehead, knocking him unconscious. He fell to the ground with his head raised and screamed.
Lu Xia did not show any mercy because she had already recognized who this person was.
Then he swung the stick and hit him hard.
These blows landed directly on his body, causing him to roll on the ground holding his head.
Seeing how ugly he looked, Lu Xia raised his foot and kicked him hard in a vulnerable spot.
"ah!"
The person on the ground screamed in pain, but Lu Xia still felt unsatisfied.
Just as he was about to raise his foot to kick again, he heard a voice beside him.
"If you step on him again, he'll probably be ruined!"
Lu Xia turned around and saw that it was Jiang Junmo.
"Why are you here?"
"I heard the sound, saw it was you, and came over."
Lu Xia understood that he was afraid that she would be in danger, and she felt warmed in her heart. After all, Jiang Junmo's health was not good at first glance, and he probably didn't have as much strength as her, yet he still wanted to help her.
Thinking of this, Lu Xia's previously irritable mood calmed down a little, and he looked at the person on the ground again.
