Bab 522: Work Later

After lunch, Liu Duo went upstairs for a nap. The brothers took a break after their meal, then went out to harvest some more.

The sun was up in the sky, but the weather seemed a bit gloomy. They worried that it might rain and make harvesting more difficult. The paddy would be ruined by the rainwater and left to spoil in the field, thus reducing the harvest.

Liu Ran wanted to help but they only had four sickles, so he stayed home with his books.

"Sis, are you going to the paddy field?" Liu Ran asked his sister when she came downstairs after waking up from her nap.

Liu Duo rubbed her eyes, barely awake. "Yes, I'm going. I have to bring some fruit and cool water over to them, and keep them company."

Liu Ran grinned from ear to ear when he heard that. "Sis, can I tag along? I did my revision in the morning, and I finished my homework."

Liu Duo took some fruit and went to wash them by the well.
