After Chen Xiaolin waited for Shen Jiaojiao to leave, she returned to her task field and worked quickly.

If she couldn't finish harvesting this acre of rice today, she wouldn't be able to get off work. She wanted to get off work early today!

Next, Chen Xiaolin just kept her head down and worked hard. If Liu Zhaodi hadn't called her when she went back, she wouldn't have known it was noon.

Chen Xiaolin took a look and found that she had done it very quickly today. Now she had cut almost two-thirds of it. It seemed that she could take her time in the afternoon and not be so anxious.

Chen Xiaolin washed the mud off her hands and took her lunch and kettle to the foot of the tree.

"Xiaolin, come here quickly." Grandma Chen has been waiting for Chen Xiaolin here for a long time and has not seen her come up. If she doesn't come up, Grandma Chen will go to the field to look for her.

"Grandma, aren't you going back to eat?" Chen Xiaolin saw Grandma Chen nibbling on the tortillas in her hand, so she opened her lunch box with pickled vegetables and placed it in front of Grandma Chen.

"I'm too lazy to go back. Your aunt can just go back by herself. She only has two pigs at home, so she can handle it by herself. I brought dry food in the morning, so I can eat it here and rest for a while. Your pickled cabbage is very delicious. , It just consumes a bit of oil." When Grandma Chen saw the oily sauerkraut in Chen Xiaolin's lunch box, she knew that her granddaughter put a lot of oil in the sauerkraut.

"Oops, my pigs haven't been fed yet." Chen Xiaolin still heard Grandma Chen talking about feeding the pigs, and then she remembered that she still had two pigs at home that she hadn't fed yet. At this hour, they must be howling with hunger.

"Give me the key tomorrow, and I'll ask your aunt to help you feed her." Grandma Chen also felt sorry for her granddaughter who had to go back to feed the pigs every day. The autumn harvest was already hard work, and if she didn't take a break at noon, her body wouldn't be able to bear it.

"No grandma, just pour the pig food in in advance when I come out tomorrow. Auntie is already very tired, so how can I trouble her." Chen Xiaolin felt that letting her feed her would be better than going back to feed her. After all, she had space. You can take advantage of the time difference and take a good nap.

Chen Xiaolin only ate two mixed-noodle steamed buns and stopped eating. She gave the remaining two steamed buns and sauerkraut to Grandma Chen. She hurriedly ran home. She was afraid that if she went back too late, the two little black pigs at home would rebel.

When Chen Xiaolin returned to the door of her home, she could hear the pigs braying in the pigsty.

Although Chen Xiaolin's two little black pigs have only been raised for less than two months, they are now almost 100 pounds. They can be so fat. Chen Xiaolin has fed them so many good things, how can she be willing to starve them to lose weight?

Chen Xiaolin squeezed out the oil from all the soybeans in the space some time ago, and Chen Xiaolin fed the remaining several hundred kilograms of bean dregs into their mouths.

By the time Chen Xiaolin finished feeding the pigs, she was already a little faster. She quickly went to the space and slept for half an hour.

The space is half an hour, and the outside is only a few minutes. After a good rest, Chen Xiaolin began to go to the fields to harvest rice in high spirits again.

The afternoon sun made Chen Xiaolin dizzy, so she replaced the water in the military kettle with iced Coke.

It feels really beautiful to have a bottle of cold Coke under the sun. At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xiaolin had finished her task in the field. She couldn't find the scorer for a while, so she could only wait for her to come over in the field.

The scorer in the village is Chen Xiaomei, the youngest daughter of the village party secretary. She just graduated from high school last year, and the village party secretary asked her to fill the vacancy of the scorer.

After a while, Chen Xiaomei came over in anticipation of Chen Xiaolin.

Chen Xiaomei was surprised to see Chen Xiaolin complete the task so quickly. She didn't expect that people who grew up in the city could be so good at farm work.

"Xiaomei, hurry up and mark the centimeters for me. I'm going back." Chen Xiaolin was in a hurry to go back to feed the pigs and cook!

"Ah? Aren't you going to continue to receive an acre of land? It's too early for you to go back now. The team leader will be criticized if he sees it." Chen Xiaomei did not expect that Chen Xiaolin was in a hurry to go back instead of continuing to receive tasks to earn more work points. .

"You can go back after you finish it, right? Do you still want to continue to receive the mission?" Chen Xiaolin was frightened by Chen Xiaomei's words. She wanted to continue to receive the mission after finishing the job, so why did she work so hard!

"Usually, you can go back after finishing the work, but the autumn harvest is not possible. You can get another acre of rice. If you can't finish harvesting, you can continue tomorrow." Chen Xiaomei recorded six work points for Chen Xiaolin in the work point book, and then asked her to find the team leader to give it again. She shares an acre of rice.

Chen Xiaolin accepted her fate and went to the team leader to give her an acre of rice, and continued to pick up the sickle to cut. She would not be stupid again tomorrow, and she had no shortage of work points, so why did she work so hard!

She was busy until it got dark, and then Chen Xiaolin heard the bell ringing for the end of work.

Chen Xiaolin hurriedly took the things she brought and ran home. She came back late, and the family's precious pig was about to escape from prison.

After Chen Xiaolin finished feeding the pigs, she no longer had the energy to cook. She took out a portion of Malatang and a cup of iced milk tea from the space.

After eating this delicious and spicy Malatang, Chen Xiaolin felt like she was alive.

Although Chen Xiaolin felt very tired, she felt very satisfied when she saw the rows of rice being cut by herself.

Today, Chen Xiaolin was really infected by the atmosphere in the village. She saw that although everyone was working hard, everyone was filled with a satisfied smile.

Chen Xiaolin went into the space to sleep early tonight. She needed to sleep more so that the next day's autumn harvest would not be delayed.

The next morning, Chen Xiaolin and her team's task was still to cut rice. Chen Xiaolin quickly finished cutting the acre of rice she had not finished yesterday, and then received another acre.

At noon, Chen Xiaolin finally remembered to go home and feed the pigs without being reminded.

Chen Xiaolin also took advantage of her rest time to run into the space and take a bath in the spiritual spring water, and then took a comfortable nap.

When Chen Xiaolin woke up from her sleep, she started cutting rice again in the afternoon.

After a day and a half of adaptation period, Chen Xiaolin is now like a machine, relying on her feelings to keep cutting forward. She doesn't even dare to look ahead, for fear that she will be discouraged when she sees the uncut rice fields.

In the following autumn harvest, Chen Xiaolin basically received ten centimeters every day. The three aunts and six wives in the village have recently been thinking about finding something for Chen Xiaolin after the autumn harvest. For such a capable and wealthy girl, everyone wants to marry her home.

There is a lot of land in the village, and rice is only a small part. After the rice is harvested, corn, wheat, peanuts, soybeans, and finally sweet potatoes and potatoes are harvested.

After more than a month of autumn harvest, all the food was finally recovered. Fortunately, God has been kind this month, and the sun has been shining brightly, drying up all the food.

When I got off work today, Uncle Chen had already held a meeting with everyone and told everyone that they would have three consecutive days off starting tomorrow. Tomorrow, two pigs will be killed to replenish everyone's health.

Not to mention the people in the village, even Chen Xiaolin was very excited when she heard about the killing of pigs. The pigs in this era were not fed with fertilizers, and the smell was really delicious.
