A slender girl stood barefoot in a muddy field deep enough to reach her calves. The girl has wisely rolled up her trousers. She wore a long-sleeved white shirt, which she tucked into her black trousers. Her legs seemed impossibly slender in her simple get-up.

The girl also wore a thin pair of gloves, while her hair was fixed in a high bun, partially concealed by a straw hat.

She had been sowing paddy in the fields from early morning till almost midday.

Sweat drenched the back of her shirt. She stood up and opened a bottle of mineral water, taking a few big gulps to quench her thirst.

The farmers had tilled the field two to three times before allowing the land to become waterlogged and muddy. The field had an approximate ten-centimeter level of water by the time the girl started sowing paddy. She grabbed another stalk of seedlings with her left hand and swiftly planted them with her right.

As she worked, her left thumb and middle finger rapidly divided the thick bunch of seedlings into smaller bunches for planting.
