Grandma Yu was very happy and invited Huang Xinrui: "Xinrui, you should come too."
Huang Xinrui was surprised that Grandma Yu would invite her, and said excitedly, "Thank you, Grandma Yu, I brought my own food."
She knew she was benefiting from Li Xiyue's influence, so she naturally couldn't take advantage of her and freeload.
Grandma Yu laughed heartily: "No need to bring food, just bring your sweet talk."
She left happily as soon as they said she wanted it, saying she was going home to prepare a meal to entertain them.
Li Xiyue and Huang Xinrui took the grain and other items back to the educated youth settlement.
"Something terrible has happened!" At that moment, villagers shouted from the fields.
Immediately following was Xu Dawei's roar, "The ox is injured! Go quickly and call the team leader and Uncle Liu!"
Two people suddenly ran out from the field and went in different directions.
"Yueyue, it seems the oxen that were plowing the field are injured," Huang Xinrui said to Li Xiyue after listening intently for a while.
Li Xiyue heard it too, and she decided to go over and take a look. She handed the things to Huang Xinrui and said, "Please take them back to my dorm. I'll go see if I can help."
"What happened?" Xu Dawei asked, barely suppressing his anger. "How could a perfectly healthy cow have injured its hoof?"
Old Xu, who was tilling the land, had a bitter face. "I don't know which bastard threw glass into the field. The cow's foot was cut with a long gash."
Xu Laosan had farmed all his life, and this was the first time he had ever encountered such bad luck.
"Which short-lived bastard did this? Step forward!" Xu Dawei cursed through gritted teeth at the crowd.
Damn it, isn't this going to kill him?
No one dared to utter a sound; they all lowered their heads, not even daring to meet his murderous gaze.
Xu Laosan forced himself to speak, "Vice Captain, don't worry about who threw the glass, we have to save the cow first."
Their production team only has two oxen for plowing. One of them is pregnant and can't work in the fields. If something happens to this one, what will happen to all the land?
"What else is there to say? Hurry up and drive the cattle up there!" Xu Dawei said urgently.
At his command, everyone worked together to push the ox onto the ridge of the field.
"It's bleeding constantly, can the ox withstand it?" Old Xu squatted beside the ox, feeling uncertain.
Xu Dawei was sweating profusely with anxiety. The ox was an important asset of the production team. Putting aside whether they could complete their production tasks or win the rotating red flag without the ox, he would be punished if the ox was lost in his hands.
Thinking of this, he shouted, "Has the person who called for Uncle Liu returned?"
Everyone looked towards the other end of the road and saw that the person had returned. They quickly replied, "He's back, but Uncle Liu didn't come."
Xu Dawei pushed through the crowd and rushed forward, asking, "Where's Sixth Uncle?"
"Sixth Uncle went up the mountain to gather herbs and isn't home. I've already sent someone to call him," the commune member who went to call him replied breathlessly.
Xu Dawei felt completely overwhelmed. "Why isn't he here at this time! Then, go call Xiangyang, he knows a little medicine too."
"I sent someone to call them," the villager said, his hands on his knees, bending over and panting as he returned.
Just then, Xu Guoqiang returned on his bicycle. He threw it onto the main road and sped off to the fields like lightning. Seeing the cow lying on the edge of the field, he was furious. "You're going to die! The cow is injured like this? Do you even want to keep doing this?"
He's only been gone a short while and such a huge thing has happened. Those inhuman bastards!
Xu Dawei hung his head, looking like a scared child who had done something wrong.
"Captain, Niu is dying. He's bleeding so much, he can't hold on any longer." Xu Laosan was so anxious that several more strands of his already gray hair turned white, and the wrinkles on his old face were filled with worry.
Xu Guoqiang, who was not a doctor, could only worry anxiously. "What can I do? Go find Uncle Liu!"
"I've looked for him, gone up the mountain, and called Xiangyang, but he hasn't come yet," Xu Dawei replied, forcing a smile.
Xu Guoqiang kicked him, saying, "Something goes wrong as soon as I leave. It's one thing for others to hold me back, but you're holding me back too!"
Xu Dawei was kicked and fell into the paddy field, getting completely soaked. He didn't dare to answer and was helped up by the villagers. He was so cold that he didn't dare to go home to change his clothes.
At this moment, Li Xiyue stepped out from the crowd and said, "Captain, I can help stop the bleeding in the cow first."
