In the following days, everyone in the village came out to collect it, except half-grown children and the elderly.

These people are responsible for drying the processed wheat in the drying field.

Even the team leader and accountant participated in the whole day's work.

The land that the Educated Youth Yuan is responsible for is not too big, but it is very tiring for the few of them to be busy.

Basically can't rest. After Wen Xin and Zhao Wanqing tied them up for a while, they had to stand up and straighten their backs, otherwise it would be too painful.

The male educated youths waved their sickles and sweated like rain.

It was almost noon, Wen Xin and Zhang Yingying had to go back to cook first, and Li Qian also came with them.

After asking, I found out that the male educated youths gave Li Qian food, meat and vegetables, hoping that she would help cook for this period of time.

As a reward, Li Qian will be settled uniformly in the end.

Li Qian thought for a while and agreed.

After returning to the Educated Youth Institute, I had no time to spare and was busy cooking.

Zhang Yingying is responsible for washing and chopping vegetables, and Wen Xin is responsible for frying.

After putting all the food into the lunch box, Wen Xin filled a large pot of mung bean soup and gave Li Qian a large pot to take with her.

In this weather, it is really unbearable for people if they don’t drink something to relieve the heat.

After finishing, Wen Xin and Zhang Yingying left first. Li Qian still had to wait for Lin Kai to pick them up. She couldn't get food for five people by herself.

On the way back, I bumped into Lin Kai and nodded as a hello.

When they arrived at the field, Zhao Wanqing and Wang Yumei rushed up directly.

"I'm too hungry, I can't do it anymore." Zhao Wanqing's hands were shaking.

Wen Xin and Zhang Yingying quickly put the food in her hands.

A few people were sitting under a big tree next to the ground, devouring their food without any appearance at all.

But no one cared. Everyone else just focused on eating without even raising their eyes.

After eating, Wen Xin poured a cup of mung bean soup for everyone, "Drink some of this, the weather is too hot."

The four of them slowed down.

After eating, I rested for more than ten minutes and then started again.

Before going over, Wen Xin put two toffees and a piece of dried meat in each person's pocket, and whispered, "Eat when you are hungry in the afternoon."

They were busy until seven o'clock in the afternoon, and it was already dark before they stopped working.

On the way back, the steps were weak. The four of them supported each other. Li Qian and Lin Hongyu were also next to each other. The few male educated youths were a little better, but they were still very tired.

After entering the room, Zhao Wanqing poured water for everyone and quietly added spiritual spring water. After drinking, the four of them gradually felt much better.

The next days are about repeating and repeating.

Finally, after eleven days, all the wheat was harvested and the drying work was basically completed.

The captain gave everyone else a day off, took a few strong young men, loaded them into the ox cart, and went to the town to hand over the mission rations.

Lin Dongze also went. On the way, the captain was still chatting with the secretary.

"Old Lin, we can breathe a sigh of relief now."

"Yeah, I've been dreaming about heavy rain these past few days, and the wheat is all flooded in the ground. I'm so worried. Now it's better. Even if it doesn't rain, and someone scolds me, I will admit it. At least we have enough food. It’s in hand.”

"Hey, you are still so thoughtful. I heard that several villages next to us are rushing to harvest. I guess the rain is coming soon."

After speaking, the secretary looked at the sky.

In the past few days, the weather has been getting hotter and muggier, the sun is rarely seen, ants are moving, swallows are flying low, and everything is there. The elders in the village said that they were afraid of a heavy rainstorm.

After arriving at the place, there were two teams queuing up in front.

The people in the car saw the captain and the secretary and came up to talk to them, "Captain Lin, you are also here to hand over the mission rations."

"Yes, the weather is bad. We should pack things up as soon as possible." The captain said.

After handing over the mission rations, the stone weighing on the captain's heart fell to the ground. They hurried back to the village and distributed the food to the villagers, and then they had some time off.

Wen Xin and the others were chatting in the room.

"Xinxin, when do you think it will rain?" Zhang Yingying asked.

"I guess it's almost over. The weather has been too boring these days." Wen Xin said.

Zhao Wanqing also said, "Then I guess we can still rest for a few days. I don't think the school will be open for a while."

Wang Yumei said, "I can finally rest now. I have been so exhausted during this period."

Wen Xin said, "Yeah, I want to sleep until I'm full tomorrow, and I won't be able to afford it."

A few people were chatting happily, and while they were talking, there was a loud thunder outside.

Wen Xin asked, "Is it thundering outside?"

The other three people calmed down and listened, then nodded and said, "It seems so. It looks like it's going to rain."

Wang Yumei said, "Yingying, let's go back first, otherwise the rain will get serious later and it will be difficult to go back."

Zhang Yingying nodded, "Okay, let's go."

Zhao Wanqing also went back.

After everyone left, Wen Xin locked the door, took clay pot rice and a bottle of Coke from the space, fried an egg and started eating.

After eating, I packed up and quietly took out a small electric fan. This one can be used with a power bank, which is perfect for her.

There was thunder outside from time to time, and after a while, lightning started.

After that, big raindrops fell on the ground.

This time, it was pouring rain without even a buffer.

The villagers were also frightened at home. They had just harvested all the wheat in the fields yesterday. If it hadn't been for the strong request of the team leader, they would have been doomed this year. People who had complained before did not dare to speak anymore.

The captain's family was also happy.

Lin Dongze looked at his father's expression and said, "Dad, it's really thanks to you this time."

The captain was happy in his heart, but he still pretended not to care and said, "It's nothing, it's just for food anyway."

The brigade captain's wife was standing next to her, saying, "I'm still pretending. I didn't know who it was before. She talked in her sleep most of the night because she was afraid of rain and the wheat would be flooded."

The captain looked a little uncomfortable and said, "You old woman, give me some face."

Lin Dongze turned his head and pretended not to see it.

On the contrary, Lin Xi covered her mouth and snickered, her eyes still staring.

Because of the summer harvest and the weather, the high school is also on vacation these days.

After Lin Xi came back, she didn't go to work, and the family didn't lack her labor force, so she just helped with the cooking, which can be regarded as reducing the pressure.

At night, the rain did not stop, and it kept falling, accompanied by thunder and lightning.

Wen Xin carefully closed the doors and windows before going to bed. She also checked the stove carefully to make sure there was no leakage, and then she closed the bed curtains and went to sleep.

When I woke up the next morning, my mind was confused, the room was dark, and I didn't know what time it was.

Wen Xin put away the bedside fan, opened the curtain, and looked at her watch. It was already ten o'clock.

I stretched out and looked out the window. It was still raining, and the water on the ground couldn't be drained out.
