Chapter 118 So this is where Jinshan was... (1/2)

Jin Yuhong and Shen Yishan rushed to Gu Jinzhou's side almost simultaneously.

Relying on her status as his fiancée, Shen Yishan acted quickly, reaching out to touch Gu Jinzhou's forehead, her voice trembling with tears: "Jinzhou! Jinzhou, what's wrong? Don't scare me!"

Jin Yuhong was a beat too slow and could only kneel on the other side, her eyes fixed on Gu Jinzhou's pale face, tears streaming down her face as if they were free.

"Brother Jinzhou! Brother Jinzhou!"

This scene of naming names left the commune members working nearby dumbfounded.

"Oh dear! Why did she faint?"

"It's probably heatstroke; the weather is scorching hot."

"Quick, quick! Pinch his philtrum!"

Amidst the chaotic chatter, Li Fengshou, the squad leader, squeezed in with a dark expression.

He crouched down, checked Gu Jinzhou's breath, and touched his forehead; it was frighteningly hot.

"What are you all yelling about! Are you even going to work?!" Li Fengshou roared, pointing at Zhao Weiguo and Chen Siming beside him, "You two, hurry up and carry this person to the brigade clinic! Quickly!"

Zhao Weiguo and Chen Siming stepped forward in response. Zhao Weiguo was strong and carried Gu Jinzhou on his back, while Chen Siming supported him from the side.

Shen Yishan was extremely anxious and, wiping away her tears, was about to follow.

Jin Yuhong wanted to follow, but as soon as she stood up, she was nailed to the spot by Li Fengshou's piercing gaze.

"Where are you going?" Li Fengshou's tone was extremely harsh. "Have you finished working in the fields? Shen Zhiqing is your fiancée, what are you doing going there? Aren't you embarrassed enough already?"

Jin Yuhong's face flushed red and then turned pale. She was so choked up that she couldn't say a word. She could only watch helplessly as Shen Yishan and Lin Xiangnan escorted Gu Jinzhou away quickly.

She stood there, her nails digging deep into her palms, her eyes burning with a jealousy that seemed to scorch the back of the fool in front of her.

Why should I?!

Why should that idiot Shen Yishan be able to stay by his side legitimately?

Under the shade of the tree, Ruan Tang watched the farce unfold from beginning to end, marveling at it.

She nudged the man's arm beside her and whispered, "This is going to be interesting."

Yan Yu didn't say anything, but simply pulled her closer to him. His tall figure acted like a wall, completely blocking out the chaotic scene at the edge of the field, preventing her from seeing it anymore.

...

The grand autumn harvest has finally come to an end amidst various farces.

Next came the important matter of delivering grain to the state.

The threshing ground was piled high with golden corn and soybeans, and the commune members were all smiles as they busied themselves bagging and weighing the grain.

This is the most important time of the year for the brigade. Brigade leader Chen Fengshan and several production team leaders are personally overseeing it, and no mistakes can be tolerated.

Such core tasks naturally didn't require the educated youth.

So, on the day of delivering the grain tax, all the educated youth were given a rare day off.

As soon as the news was announced, the educated youth settlement was in an uproar.

Lin Xiangnan came early in the morning and dragged Shen Yishan to the commune to relax. After Gu Jinzhou's heatstroke, Shen Yishan was still absent-minded, but at least she wasn't so lifeless anymore, and she was half-heartedly dragged away.

The Jin sisters, along with Tao Yuming and the others, also made plans to visit the supply and marketing cooperative at the commune.

For a moment, the entire Jixiang Brigade exuded a sense of holiday leisure.

Only the secluded little courtyard on the hillside remained quiet and peaceful.

Ruan Tang is notoriously lazy. In her past life, she cultivated immortality, and if it weren't for treasure hunting, she could have stayed in her cave for hundreds of years. This rural place is not as comfortable as staying at home.

Yan Yu was wherever Ruan Tang was.
