Pampered 70s, the wife I snatched is so fragrant - Chapter 8

“What does the captain think of today’s weather? Is it possible to rain tonight?”

Lu Zheng was still thinking about how to bring this up.

Xiao Qingshan laughed. As long as he was not asked to deal with those troublesome things, he was in a good mood.

“The weather is good. It will probably be sunny tomorrow.”

Lu Zheng smiled and said, “I have a friend who works at the meteorological station. He said it will rain here tonight!”

“I just came to the countryside, and the grain collected will not be distributed to me, so I just talked to the captain about this matter. Whether you collect the grain or not, it has nothing to do with me!”

After Lu Zheng said this, he turned around and left.

This headache, of course, must be decided by others.

As for which friend said it, Lu Zheng didn’t say it, and no one else would ask.

Xiao Qingshan laughed and shook his head, looking at the sunset in the sky.

What a joke, there are only a few clouds in the sky, how can it rain?

When he walked to the door of his house, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

It was a big project to collect all the rice in the village. Everyone was so tired that they couldn’t even get up. No one wanted to work for nothing.

But what if it really rained?

Xiao Qingshan thought about it and decided to sleep more alert tonight.

Lu Zheng’s words finally affected Xiao Qingshan. He lay in bed all night and couldn’t sleep. He went out to check from time to time.

The weather was still very hot in the first half of the night, as if the whole village was a big steamer…

Xiao Qingshan’s heart skipped a beat.

The moon and stars in the sky had hidden in the clouds. Although there was no wind, the sultry heat before the rain came as expected.

Xiao Qingshan felt that he couldn’t wait any longer, so he picked up the enamel basin in the room and started knocking it.

Li Guixiang was the first to be awakened, and then almost everyone around woke up.

Li Guixiang pinched Xiao Qingshan’s ear.

“I think you are crazy, right? There is only such a good thing in the house. What if it is broken?”

The enamel basin is very useful, but there is a disadvantage that it is easy to knock off the porcelain on it.

But the sound was indeed clear, and in this silent night, it was heard from afar.

The chirping of insects and birds around seemed to be the accompaniment.

“Get up quickly! Collect the rice quickly, it’s going to rain!”

When everyone got up, they complained, but when they saw the dark sky, they ran to the drying ground.

“Quick!”

“Where’s the basket? Bring it here!”

“A dustpan…if there’s nothing, just a shovel!”

Lu Zheng didn’t sleep very deeply, and he had a love affair with his Ru’er in his dream. He was soon overwhelmed by the sense of loss that he didn’t get, and he couldn’t sleep.

Hearing the noise outside, he got up quickly and called the male educated youth on the same kang.

“Quick, it’s going to rain, the rice is still on the drying ground, let’s go and help collect it!”

But the group of male educated youth were exhausted, and many of them were unwilling to do so. Only Xie Xuan followed.

Lu Zheng sighed and said nothing.

They were newly arrived educated youth, and they were definitely not that popular.

They couldn’t do much work, but they had to share other people’s rations.

Of course, he had to behave well at this time to fit in here.

The locals were very strong in sticking together, and the educated youth always had to suffer some losses.

But he had only been here for a day or two, and did not have such a strong appeal. He could only rush to Shaguping to help with Xie Xuan who was willing to follow.

When Xiao Qingshan saw the two educated youths, he was stunned at first, then patted the other’s shoulders with satisfaction, turned around and started to get busy again.

All of a sudden, torches were lit around the rice drying area.

Everyone was in a hurry, and no one cared about work points.

“Hurry up, move faster, it’s going to rain soon!”

Wang Hua and Xiao’s father also kept putting on their clothes and rushed out.

Wang Hua suddenly remembered what her daughter said in the afternoon, “It’s going to rain…”

She shook her head quickly.

Her daughter has been a fool since she was born, and it was only recently that she occasionally uttered a word or two.

I don’t know where she heard the word “rain”, so she kept muttering it in her mouth, but she just happened to hear it.

Wang Hua calmed her somewhat flustered mind and attributed everything to coincidence.

Only Lu Zheng roughly understood it in his heart.

His Ru’er is not a fool, but she is gifted in some places…

She has obtained certain abilities, and naturally has certain defects… This is balance!

Although there is strength in numbers, when the rain fell, a small part of the rice was not collected.

Everyone’s voices became lower, and they just silently accelerated their actions.

Wet rice cannot be mixed with dry rice. If the rain lasts too long, the wet rice will sprout…

Everyone worked in the heavy rain for another two hours and finally collected all the rice.

If nothing unexpected happens, the food handed in will be enough, and the wet ones can only be kept for themselves.

Lu Zheng and Xie Xuan were both wet. After returning to the educated youth site, they just got some hot water to wipe themselves, changed their clothes and fell asleep.

Although the two people’s movements were light, they still made some movements.

They even got scolded by the educated youth who were traveling with them.

“Who is so wicked? You will die a bad death if you disturb people’s sleep!”

The two looked at each other and their hands moved a little lighter.

It rained heavily all night, but early the next morning, the sun shyly showed half of its face.

Although there was still mud in the field and the drying ground was wet, the corn was still in the field and had to be harvested.

Xiao Ru had long been accustomed to the song “The East is Red” played in the morning, because it was the autumn harvest season, and everyone had to go to the fields.

Xiao Ru was the only exception in the village because of her IQ.

Wang Hua still pulled her out. She was worried about leaving the child at home, fearing that someone would sneak into the house and bully others.

Although Xiao Ru could not do much work in the fields, fortunately Xiao Ru was always obedient.

Xiao Qingshan was furious at the educated youth in the morning.

“Some of you have been in the countryside for a year or two, why are you so ignorant? The two newcomers came out to help harvest rice in the middle of the night, but you hid in the educated youth point and refused to come out!”

“Every year when the grain is distributed, you know to pick fine grain… This year, except for the two new educated youth, no one else is eligible to share fine grain!”

“Everyone who participates in harvesting rice at night will be given two more work points! Day by day…”

Xiao Qingshan was really angry.

The new educated youth didn’t know, but didn’t the old educated youth know? They were really lazy and never did any more work.

They didn’t think about it, they also need to eat grain.

Lu Zheng and Xie Xuan stood aside in silence.

They were the only two who stood out, so naturally the other people at the educated youth center had opinions about them.
