Chapter 226
He called out to the young man next to him, "Heizi, Guawa, help Zhou Zhiqing up the tree. Fugui, go get a bucket of water."
After helping them to the tree, Shen Erzhu asked Shen Xue to give Zhou Jingchen some water.
When the water came, Shen Erzhu asked Fugui to pour water on Zhou Jingchen. The cold water splashed on his body, and Zhou Jingchen slowly opened his eyes.
"What's wrong with me?"
Shen Xue laughed out loud, "Jingchen, you're awake, woo woo, you fainted just now and scared me to death."
"I...I fainted?"
An auntie poked her head out of the cornfield and said disdainfully, "It's not good at all. He fainted just after breaking two corn stalks. A grown man is as weak as a sick chicken. His health is not as good as my 85-year-old grandmother's."
Zhou Jingchen: “…” He clearly picked two baskets of corn.
Zhou Jingchen rolled his eyes and said weakly, "Captain, I feel dizzy. I'd like to ask for half a day off."
Zhou Jingchen really didn't want to work anymore. The corn leaves were like blades, and if he was not careful, he would cut them, which was itchy and painful.
Autumn harvest, minor injuries will not leave the front line, Zhou Jingchen just fainted a little, it is impossible for him to ask for leave,
He can ask for leave when he feels dizzy, and that person also asks for leave when he feels dizzy. Is he still going to do his job?
He said with a straight face, "No, I can only give you twenty minutes of rest at most."
Zhou Jingchen tugged at Shen Xue's clothes, signaling her to speak. Shen Xue got the signal and spoke softly, "Second Grandpa Jingchen is so weak, you can let him take half a day off. At worst, I can do his share of the work."
Shen Erzhu said indifferently, "There's no room for negotiation on the leave. He has to continue working after a 20-minute break, otherwise two days' work points will be deducted."
There are still a lot of things to do in the team. Shen Erzhu said this and left with his hands behind his back.
He married Shen Xue, who was a relative of the captain, but this old man didn't give him any face.
The captain was displeased with him, and Zhou Jingchen was not in a good mood towards Shen Xue either.
"Didn't you say that the captain loves you, his niece, the most? Why didn't he approve your request for leave?"
Shen Xue explained, "Jingchen, this is the autumn harvest, and we are busy harvesting the crops, which is different from usual.
If it were any other time, Second Grandfather would definitely agree to your request for leave as soon as I asked. Jingchen Autumn Harvest will be over soon, just be patient."
Zhou Jingchen didn't want to endure it, but he had no choice but to endure it.
With Shen Erzhu's instructions, the team leader looked at the time and came to urge Zhou Jingchen to work.
"Zhou Jingchen, twenty minutes are up, get up and break the corn."
Zhou Jingchen was pushed into the cornfield by the team leader. In order to record the work points, each person was given a piece of cornfield.
At this point, everyone had basically broken half of the corn, and only Zhou Jingchen was still breaking it in the front.
Shen Xue was afraid that Zhou Jingchen would faint again, so she had to pay attention to him while picking corn in the field.
At this time, there was a series of rustling sounds of corn stalks falling to the ground. Shen Xue felt something was wrong and ran over to see Zhou Jingchen lying straight on the ground.
"Jingchen, what's wrong with you, Jingchen!"
"Captain, this is bad. Zhou Zhiqing has fainted again."
Shen Erzhu: "..."
Shen Erzhu hurried to the cornfield again. Just like before, he asked someone to help Zhou Jingchen to the shade, fed him half a pot of water, and poured a bucket of cool water over him. Zhou Jingchen woke up.
He fainted twice. Shen Xue was really distressed. "Second Grandpa, Jingchen is weak. He really can't work in such a strong sun. Let him rest for a while."
This time Shen Erzhu readily agreed, "Okay."
Before Shen Xue and Zhou Jingchen could be happy, he said, "You can ask for leave, but I'll deduct three days' work points."
"Second Grandfather, how could you do this? Jing Chen is your nephew-in-law after all."
Jing Chen doesn't have many work points in total. Please deduct three days' work points for half a day. How can Jing Chen survive like this?
"Don't talk to me about this nonsense. Even if he is my son-in-law, he still has to work in the fields."
Shen Erzhu said to the team leader, "Let him rest for twenty minutes, and then let him get off the ground after twenty minutes."
After half an hour.
"Hello, Captain. Something bad has happened. Zhou Jingqing has fainted again."
