Chapter 633 The Wheat Has Been Harvested (Part 1)
Starting from this morning, Gu Zian didn't let the red beans do any more work, and they were not allowed to use cold water to wash their hands and face, and they were not allowed to eat anything cold.

Hongdou didn't know where he learned all this, he was a little dumbfounded, but at the same time extremely moved.

It feels really cool to have meals served in front of you every day!
In this case, even if Gu Zian always made her a cup of hot brown sugar water for her to drink, she didn't feel too hot.

Hong Dou, who was idle on the kang and could do nothing, suddenly remembered something.

"Brother Xiaoyi, have you finished writing your lantern riddles?" Hong Dou asked Gu Zian, who was standing by the table practicing calligraphy.

"It's finished, I asked Uncle Li to deliver it last time." Gu Zian said without looking back.

Hongdou was shocked when he heard this!

Six hundred lantern riddles were written so quickly?
Perhaps Hongdou's surprise was so obvious that Gu Zian felt it even without looking up, so he stopped and raised his head to look at Hongdou, and explained with a smile, "When my father trained me before, he would assign me tasks, lantern riddles, couplets and poems. I also wrote a lot. Anyway, it’s useless to put it there, since the shopkeeper wants it, I’ll copy it down and give it to him.”

"So that's the case!" Hongdou nodded.

She just said, she didn't see how Gu Zian wrote it, so it was already finished.

At the end of the red bean moon event, it is also the hottest time of the year, followed by the summer harvest.

After the four of Hongdou discussed it, they finally decided to harvest the wheat from that one mu of land first.

The ones at the door of the house can be done slowly, and the ones that are farther away are better to be taken back earlier.

In particular, it is still a one-acre field of wheat, but there is no delay.

In the previous life, Hongdou had seen harvesting wheat.

It was a kind of machine, and when the machine was driven over, the wheat was collected into the car.

By the time it was poured out again, it had already been successfully threshed.

With the help of that machine, it would probably take half an hour to harvest one mu of wheat.

But now, without the help of a machine, I can only bend over and hold a sickle to collect it. It would be good if I can finish it in a day.

In order not to get tanned, Red Bean took out the sunscreen and asked everyone to apply a thick layer on the exposed skin.

Even with sunscreen on, straw hats and gloves are a must.

The cuffs and trouser legs were tied tightly with rope, so that no wind could get in.

It is tightly wrapped in this way, and the heat is a little hot, but I am not afraid of the thorns on the ears of wheat pricking my body.

If the thorns on the wheat ears get on the body, it will be very itchy.

By the time he was fully armed and before he went out, Hong Dou was already sweating.

On such a hot day, it was still wrapped so tightly, it was torture.

"Okay, let's go, go early and come back early." Xu Yibai walked out first as he said.

Over the past year, the family has bought a lot of farm tools, including four sickles alone, which happened to be one for each person at this time.

When I walked out of Gu's house, the sky was only a little bit bright.

But when they reached the small road between the fields, they could see that the fields on both sides of the road were already full of people bent over and working.

The red beans and the others came here with a cart. It is estimated that they would have to push the wheat for that one mu of land two or three times before they could transport all the wheat back.

The sky was fine, with not a single cloud in the blue sky.

The few people walked on the path without a trace of wind, and when they finally reached the field, the four of them were already flushed and sweating profusely.
