Xu Mingyang was a veteran of the battlefield, and Xu Xinning in her previous life had also witnessed bloodshed and carnage. What was this compared to that?

"Stop the car! Stop the car now!"

Those chasing them could only shout like that. They knew that once Xu Mingyang and his group returned to the village, they would be helpless. The higher-ups had not specified which brigade this batch of grain seeds was to be given to.

The car sped along, the wind whistling past her ears, making them ache. Xu Xinning's two thick, long braids swung wildly, as if releasing all the restlessness she had suppressed throughout her life.

"Uncle, we're about to turn."

"Received." Xu Mingyang's hands were numb from the shock. He gripped the handrail tightly, applied the brakes slightly, and made a sharp turn.

The tractors chasing behind weren't so bold, and this turn widened the gap between the two tractors considerably.

"Uncle, they've fallen behind, haha, they've fallen behind, they can't catch up, haha..." Xu Xinning was overjoyed.

Stimulate!

That was so exciting!!!

Aside from the time she was kidnapped, her life in this lifetime was almost uneventful.

"Hehe!" Xu Mingyang grinned, he hadn't felt this good in a long time. This kind of life had made him forget that he still had any fighting spirit.

Xujia Village was just ahead. Xu Mingyang did not slow down. He knew that as long as they entered Xujia Village, the grain seeds would be safe.

What was saved was not just the grain seeds, but the hopes of the entire village.

The tractor behind them gradually slowed down, and it seemed they couldn't catch up. All five men's faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Among these five people were people from other brigades, grain stations, supply and marketing cooperatives, and communes. They had originally intended to reserve the grain seeds for the brigade that had come with them, but unexpectedly, someone else got there first.

They all knew Xu Mingyang. In his early years, he was a scoundrel in the village, very bold and often did nothing proper. Later, he joined the army. He was born to be a soldier and thrived in the army. However, he was injured and discharged.

They used to feel sorry that he didn't have a good mother, and that he could have gone to the police department like his older brother. But his younger brother took that good job from him. Now they don't see it that way anymore; they think he deserved it.

The tractor stopped not far from Xujia Village, and the five people were so angry that they didn't want to leave for a long time.

We were just a step too late! If only we had brought the seeds away yesterday.

Xu Xinning and Xu Mingyang were still excited as they drove the tractor to the brigade headquarters.

The gurgling sound seemed to announce their victory.

Life is still beautiful.

"Uncle, we're comrades who fought together, right?" Xu Xinning joked.

“Yes, we are comrades-in-arms who have shared life and death.” Xu Mingyang rarely joked like this.

"Comrade, we must help each other from now on. Don't forget to ask your comrade for help if you have any difficulties."

Actually, Xu Xinning was just looking for an excuse to help Xu Mingyang.

Xu Mingyang has been unhappy ever since he returned from military service. He has become very sullen and lost his former spirit, as if he has given up on himself.

Xu Yaozu and Yang Chunqin have always thought highly of Xu Mingyang. Xu Xinning had heard her parents talk about this cousin many times before. They thought that Xu Mingyang was the most quick-witted member of the Xu family. If he had been born in a good era, he would have been the most successful member of the Xu family. So when they came back and saw Xu Mingyang's current situation, they kept trying to find a way to help him resolve his inner conflicts.

Xu Xinning felt that there were several reasons for Xu Mingyang's current situation. First, he was forced to leave the army he loved most. When he returned to his hometown in sadness, his mother dealt him another heavy blow. Not only did she not offer him comfort, she also took it upon herself to force him to marry a woman he did not like. Second, his job. He had earned his job with his life, but his mother made him give it up with just a casual remark.

Xu Xinning found it hard to imagine how Xu Mingyang managed to endure it back then.

In this day and age, the concept of filial piety is so overwhelming!

Xu Xinning could understand Xu Mingyang very well. She felt that the pressure of filial piety in this life was not so bad compared to her previous life.

Xu Xinning often heard her mother from her previous life complain about people's pedantry and blind filial piety. Under her mother's influence, she also learned the difference between different kinds of filial piety. However, when she saw the people around her being treated unfairly because of filial piety, she still felt powerless.

Xu Xinning really wanted to help Xu Mingyang.

I heard that Xu Mingyang has not yet consummated his marriage with his wife.

Actually, Xu Mingyang's wife is not bad either, she's just a bit too honest.

Xu Mingyang may not dislike his wife that much, but rather he rebelled because his parents forced her upon him.

"Comrade-in-arms, it's settled." Xu Mingyang laughed heartily, his laughter carrying far.

When the tractor drove into the village committee, Yang Chunqin was installing a loudspeaker with colleagues from the power department. She came out when she heard the tractor's sputtering sound.

Seeing Xu Xinning and Xu Mingyang get off the tractor, she walked over and noticed the smile on Xu Mingyang's face, which made her panic.

Yang Chunqin hadn't seen Xu Mingyang smile so easily in many years. She never expected that the gloom on his face would disappear after he went out with Xu Xinning.

It still has to be her precious daughter!

Everyone says her daughter is a lucky star, and who can argue with that?

"What is this stuff coming out of the stool?"

The seeds were packed in burlap sacks, and the fertilizer was packed in snakeskin bags; Yang Chunqin noticed this immediately.

Xu Mingyang: "I asked my comrades who work at the grain station to keep an eye on the newly cultivated grain varieties."

Yang Chunqin: Really?

This made Yang Chunqin extremely happy.

Yang Chunqin had heard about the new grain seeds from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences long ago, and even asked Xu Yaozu to ask around, but they hadn't been able to get their hands on them. She never expected that Xu Mingyang would manage to get his hands on them.

Yang Chunqin was so happy that her eyes were practically splitting with joy.

Xu Xinning: "Mom, my uncle is amazing. If it weren't for him, our brigade would never have gotten these grain seeds. My uncle and I risked our lives to save them. If we had been a step slower, our brigade would have missed out on them. When this batch of grain is harvested, my uncle will be credited with the first-class merit and will definitely be rewarded."

Yang Chunqin: "This child is so afraid that your uncle will suffer a loss. Don't worry, I will inform the whole brigade about this. Sure enough, the first announcement we made after the brigade's loudspeaker was installed was about this matter."

Xu Xinning thought this was a great decision. She also wanted to see what the control room of the loudspeaker looked like, as she had never been inside one before.

The military also has loudspeakers, but military discipline is very strict; they are very particular about which places are allowed and which are not.
