After the Mooncake Festival, Su Binglan stayed home to help with the autumn harvest for a few days. Since the paddy had matured, they had to put away the rice quickly. Therefore, the people of Tenghe Town started getting busier over the next few days.

Although it was autumn, the sun still shined brightly in the afternoon. However, none of the villagers felt tired as they were busy bringing the rice home.

Even if some took a lunch break, they would hurriedly finish their food and return to work.
