Ms. Zhou let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I don't work that much and I am still getting paid. Now that I have work to do, I can't get extra payment this time."
Qiao Xuan laughed. "You have helped us a lot! Without your help, we would not have harvested the rice so smoothly."
The tenants had no idea who on earth Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were, except that they were from outside the village. But for the couple who watched them doing the harvest, they might not have been honest in their efforts. Some might even have harvested some to their own home first.
But during the harvest, there was always someone who was watching them work.
Ms. Zhou and Ding Erzhu were both quite embarrassed. "That is what we ought to do!"
