The farm was only so big, and Gao Dajiang led the group to see it all in no time.
When it was time to leave, he was a little reluctant to go, as the farm had given him so many surprises.
He's quite happy now; Xiao Lu has managed the farm so well, which proves he made the right choice in choosing him.
"Alright, Comrade Xiao Lu, Sister-in-law Shufen, I won't bother you any longer."
Gao Dajiang waved and, leading the cadres of the regiment, prepared to return.
"Commander, could you please write down a name for our farm?"
Lu Fangfang specially asked the soldiers to make a rectangular plaque, which she planned to hang on the gate later.
The farm was built with the support of Gao Dajiang.
There were many rumors and gossip along the way, but he never doubted that he was qualified to write this name.
"With my terrible handwriting, I don't want people to laugh at me."
Gao Dajiang was amused. He wasn't going to stay and embarrass himself. He waved his hand and led his men outside.
Zhuang Mingcheng was the last one left in the crowd.
Looking back at his wife, he gave her a thumbs up, then turned and followed the others.
Lu Fangfang stretched out her hand and gave him a thumbs up as well.
These days, Zhuang Mingcheng has been by her side, supporting her, and is simply her virtuous helper.
Well, I must say, my husband is quite virtuous.
"Girl, you're really lucky. Men like Xiao Zhuang are a rare find."
"Hehe, I'm lucky, he's lucky, we're both lucky."
Wang Shufen listened and laughed.
To be honest, she was quite envious. Her man treated her very well, but he was too serious. He wouldn't act like Xiao Zhuang in front of outsiders.
After the crowd left, the farm became quiet.
"Oh...ah..."
In front of the tent, the stubborn little donkey, which had been behaving itself just moments before, suddenly raised its head and brayed.
Lu Fangfang couldn't help but roll her eyes. She walked over, slapped the little wild donkey on the head, and then led it away.
Once outside the gate, she led the donkey south and onto the pasture.
She found a place with abundant pasture and tied the little wild donkey there.
The rope was long enough that the little wild donkey wouldn't be unable to reach it, so she turned around and went back to the farm.
"Girl, you should go back to sleep first. I'll watch over things here."
Lu Fangfang was still a little worried, so she went to check on the incubation room again.
Seeing Sister Shufen come in, she asked, "Sister Shufen, when did the quail eggs you hatched last time hatch?"
"Last time I incubated it using a heated kang bed, and it hatched at night. But you never know, girl, don't worry. I've checked everything, and this egg should hatch in the next day or two at the latest."
Lu Fangfang nodded, carefully covered herself with the quilt, and then thought about what to feed the little quail.
The first meal of a quail is very important, as it affects its survival and health in the future.
There are a few bags of bran and corn cobs in the farm, but the crucial bone meal is still missing.
She was quite puzzled. Half a month ago, she asked Uncle Guo to spread the word to the nearby brigades that their farm was buying bones.
But for the past two weeks, there has been no news at all; not even a single person has come to sell bones.
"If all else fails, we'll have to use the beef bones we have at home for now."
Lu Fangfang felt somewhat helpless. The original cow skeleton had almost been eaten up by the chickens, ducks, and quails at home, and now there weren't many left in her house.
If no one comes, she can simply go door-to-door in each brigade like a street vendor and collect the goods.
I greeted Sister Shufen, and she turned and left.
She picked some vegetables from the wasteland on the riverbank. She turned her head and looked around. At this moment, all the rapeseed flowers on the riverbank had bloomed.
The sea of flowers along the riverbank, stretching for three or four hundred meters, looks quite beautiful.
Lu Fangfang had no time to admire the scenery; she was preoccupied with how much rapeseed she could harvest.
She chuckled to herself for a while before finally carrying the vegetables away.
Upon entering the residential compound, several women were sitting under a birch tree, enjoying the cool air. Yang Yufeng was among them; she wasn't as disheveled as when she first returned and looked much more normal now.
Lu Fangfang glanced at it, smiled and greeted them, then left.
The farm needs to hire someone, but she doesn't really like any of the people in the group. She's quite troubled by this.
When she got home, she chopped up some vegetable leaves, fed the poultry, and then went to sleep.
In the afternoon, Lu Fangfang took Xiaohua and the little Tibetan fox to the breeding farm.
After greeting Sister Shufen, she started cooking dinner in the yard.
The farm is quite different now than before. In the middle of the yard, she made a stove out of clay with an iron pot on top, making cooking much more convenient.
She washed the potatoes and then stewed them with the quail.
"Bang, bang, bang."
"Who is it? The door is open, come in yourself."
Lu Fangfang looked up at the gate of the breeding farm, but there was no movement.
After washing her hands, she quickly walked over.
The wooden door was opened, and a tall figure stood outside, leading a horse behind him.
"Hey? Old Xu, what brings you here?"
Lu Fangfang was quite happy to see that the person who came was Xu Huayun.
She's been very busy these days; she hasn't seen Xu Huayun for almost a month.
After taking a closer look at Old Xu, he hadn't changed much from before; he still had those thick eyebrows, big eyes, and stubble.
"Comrade Lu, I heard from Uncle Guo that you were collecting bones, so I picked some up while herding horses and brought them to you."
Xu Huayun forcefully lifted the two burlap sacks off the horse's back and placed them in front of her.
