The corn in the team's fields was harvested during work hours, while the crops in everyone's private plots were gathered by the villagers during their rest time in the mornings and evenings.
At this time, nobody complained about the hard work. Seeing sacks and sacks of corn cobs, even the most exhausted felt it was worth it.
Shen Yunfang was the same. She woke up early, geared herself up despite the hot weather, wearing long clothes and pants, and wrapped her head with a headscarf, dressed just like a typical farmer's wife.
The cornfield was not an easy place to navigate; the leaves of the corn were very sharp. If you didn't wear long sleeves, you'd end up covered in cuts and scrapes by the end of the day.
Shen Yunfang had a total of nine fen of private land, and she practiced intercropping, so the actual area of corn planted was around five fen.
