The rush to harvest was indeed urgent. Granny Lei had heard that it was going to rain in a few days, so in addition to the people already hired, she called upon several hardworking villagers from nearby to help with the cutting.
Together with those who came voluntarily to lend a hand, there were over a hundred people in total. Excluding children and the elderly, it could be said that there was one able-bodied laborer for each mu of land.
Those who were quick with their hands could finish harvesting a mu in a day and a half and spend the remaining half day threshing, so on average it took a person about two days to harvest a mu of land.
The Ruo Family had over one hundred mu of land planted with rice. United as one, the group tirelessly bustled about, completing the harvest in just two and a half days.
