The clunky sound of the hand-pushed rice harvester resounded between the rice fields under the blue sky, and the pace of pushing forward was quite difficult.

"Peng Bin, do you want to rest for a while?"

"It's okay, it's still ......"

Guo Pengbin pushed this machine, which was no longer new, and his arm hurt so much that his legs stuck in the field could barely be pulled.

Now he is no younger than he was when he was younger, for many years he has been sitting in the office almost all day in front of the computer, and his body is completely rusty; After pushing for a day yesterday, I already had back pain, and now I push it for a while, and I almost fall into the field.

The scorching sun of midsummer was on his head, and the straw hat he was wearing couldn't block the rough sunlight at all, and his face was red and transparent.

"Don't hold on." Uncle Quan, who was following him, looked at it, he had been working in the fields for so many years, and he knew when he had to take a break at a glance, "Don't you suffer from heat stroke." ”

Guo Pengbin knew that this was the reason, and after pushing a few more meters, he finally had to stop, and handed the harvester he was holding in both hands to Uncle Quan, "I'll rest......

Although Uncle Quan is in his fifties, short in stature, and has a big belly, he is quick to work, and he continues to push forward after holding the handrail of the harvester.

Although there are many rice fields in the village, there is only one automatic rice harvester belonging to the village collective. And everyone did not wait for the machine, so they used cheap hand-pushed harvesters to cut the crops in those narrow plots first.

"Whew......" Guo Pengbin gasped, rubbed his arms and walked to the edge of the field to ask for water.

The edge of the field is very lively, harvesting rice is not something that one or two people can do, his mother is also helping, his wife and sister-in-law cooked some mung bean soup and brought it to them to relieve the heat and eat; In the adjacent field, Li Rongqin's family is also cutting the field, and the weather forecast says that it will rain continuously in a few days, and everyone is rushing to the good weather in the past few days.

"Ouch, look at your sweat." Yu Qi handed a sweat towel to her husband who stepped forward. Guo Pengbin smiled, took off the shirt on his upper body, simply went shirtless, took the sweat towel and wiped the sweat, "Old arms and legs, I can't recognize the old, I didn't get tired for a week more than ten years ago." ”

"You just brag." Of course Yu Qi didn't believe it, and of course Guo Pengbin was bragging, he would be tired for a week at any age.

He ate most of the bowl of soup and looked around, "What about the children?" ”

They were all playing in the field before, as well as Xuanxuan of Li Rongqin's family, and a few other families who also moved back, and a group of children had already played well, and they all seized the opportunity to spread out into the wilderness. These children used to live in towns and cities, except in nurseries, kindergartens and schools, where they were picked up and dropped off by their parents, and they did not walk much, and there were few opportunities to go wild, and at most they were swinging in the small park in their own neighborhood.

"My parents have it." Yu Qi said, "It's too sunny here, and they and other aunts and uncles take their children back to the village." ”

Guo Pengbin nodded, and looked at Uncle Quan who was working in the distance, the straw fell in rows, I don't know if it was because the weather was too hot, he was a little dizzy, in a trance, everything over there was ghosted, and then in a trance, everything was normal.

"Wife, this mung bean soup is delicious." Probably because he was tired and thirsty, he really ate very sweetly.

"Sister-in-law Quan did it." Yu Qi smiled and said, "I'll do it." ”

"Maybe that's what played a key role." Guo Pengbin ate sweetly, and his words were a little sweeter, "My wife ......"

Yu Qi glanced at him, and he could hear that he wanted to say something thankful for suffering with him, "Don't say these meaty words." "They have also been sweet and romantic, but now the old husband and wife, besides, those are really a little unbearable, and seeing her husband sweating profusely, what can she complain about.

"You know what I'm going to say, huh?" Guo Pengbin was happy.

"It's better to live here now than Dongzhou." Yu Qi said that they have been paying attention to the news, the situation in Dongzhou is not very good, there are more and more conflicts between Tianji personnel and Inhumans on the street, and the scene is becoming more and more chaotic, "If you are still in Dongzhou, I am afraid of death." ”

Because of this, this remote and dilapidated village suddenly became lively, and in addition to them and Li Rongqin's family, several families moved back.

"I agreed with Rong Qin to finish the farm work for the past few days." Guo Pengbin said with a look forward, "I went to the town to buy some cement, bricks and other materials, and came back, helped each other, and built a bathroom for the family." He knew what his wife cared about, and he really needed it.

"After these few days, it's good that you can still walk." Yu Qi looked at his sore back and legs, "Don't be unable to get up when the time comes." ”

"I can get up, but I'm not old enough to do that." Guo Pengbin said with a smile.

While they were talking in the fields, there were people working in the fields everywhere; In the distance, the villages of yellow mud huts were more alive than before, and the laughter of children returned to the small village, and a few small earth dogs chased them running and frolicking.

"Rush!" The little tiger head ran on the village road, holding a wild flower that had just been picked from the edge of the rice field, and the petite flower swayed in the wind.

"Brother, wait for me!" The vegetable girl ran behind, Xuanxuan, Xiaobao and a few other children also called, at first they were not used to living here, but within two days, they had a good time, running in the fields, catching insects, teasing puppies, and now they are reluctant to call them back to the city.

A few elders followed behind, shouting for them to run slower and be careful not to fall. There are few cars in the village, and the roads are small and they can't drive in, and even motorcycles are rare, so they let the children have fun so reassuringly, watching the children play happily, and their hearts are also happy.

Xiaohutou ran towards the entrance of the village, to see the car, and their cars were parked there.

At this time, Cai Yatou and Xuan Xuan saw that the little tiger head running in front suddenly stopped......

"Brother?" The girl screamed, but then, her own footsteps slowly stopped, and she saw a person standing there at the intersection of the village entrance. Xuan Xuan and the others also stopped, and several small earth dogs shrank their tails and whined uneasily......

The guy in front of you...... It's weird......

They saw that the man was bent over, like a hunchback but not too much, and looked very strange, with a protruding mouth, a tattered face, patches of plaque on his skin, bloodshot eyes, and blood-red pointed teeth hidden in his protruding mouth.

The weirdo was looking this way, looking at them.
