Chapter 97 The Arrival of Zhuang's Mother



If she weren't afraid that the two of them would get into trouble and blame her, she really wouldn't want to give these two ungrateful wretches any water.

"No...no...it's just a little water, how stingy!"

Yang Yufeng licked her lips, clearly not having had enough to drink.

"Pah, if you think it's cheap, then don't drink it. What do you two want from me?"

"Cordyceps...we're digging for cordyceps..."

Lu Fangfang rolled her eyes, not expecting that these two would actually come up for the cordyceps.

"Cordyceps... This place is full of cordyceps. If you want to dig, go ahead and dig. Anyway, it's all for supporting national construction. Just don't bother me."

Ignoring the two, Lu Fangfang turned around, lay down on the ground, and began searching again.

Sensing that the little snow leopard in her arms wanted to get out, she patted it to calm Xiaohua down.

Zhu Haiming and Yang Yufeng are not like Sister Shufen; she doesn't want those two to see the little snow leopard's intelligence.

The two rested for a while, then exchanged glances.

Finally, Zhu Haiming couldn't stand it anymore. She strode up to Lu Fangfang and began to observe her carefully.

She caught a glimpse of the cordyceps that were mostly in Lu Fangfang's bag, and her heart began to itch with desire.

If she could pull some strings, especially if she could sell it in Shanghai, it could fetch several times the price. Even if it's just bought as a gift, it would be fine. It's such a pity that this guy surnamed Lu is so stubborn.

...

Just as the group was digging for caterpillar fungus, the phone rang in the group's communication room.

"Ring, ring, ring..."

The soldier on duty in the call room reached for the phone. "Hello, this is Qilian First Regiment. Who are you looking for?"

"Who? Zhuang Mingcheng? Are you Battalion Commander Zhuang's mother?"

"Please tell me where you are and your name."

"Okay, okay, I understand. I will report to the regimental commander immediately. Comrade, please rest in the county town for a while. Our regiment will send someone to pick you up."

The soldier hung up the phone, called someone to take his shift, and then strode out.

Since Gao Dajiang was not in the regiment, the soldier had no choice but to find Xiao Aiguo and report the matter.

"What? Xiao Zhuang's mother has arrived in the county?"

Xiao Aiguo frowned, somewhat puzzled. He waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to go back first.

"Xiao Zhuang isn't here, so why is his mother here?"

He paced back and forth a couple of times, feeling a bit of a headache, but since the people had arrived, he had to receive them.

Xiao Zhuang's mother is from Beijing. It takes at least five or six days to travel from Beijing to the county by train, and she has to transfer trains along the way. It's not easy for her to come here.

He summoned his messenger and asked him to go to the bus station to pick up the old lady from the county.

"Oh, right, I should also tell Fangfang."

Xiao Aiguo paused, only then remembering that Lu Fangfang was still digging for caterpillar fungus on the snow-capped mountain.

He scratched his head, and could only silently wish his sister wouldn't be frightened by her mother-in-law.
