Chapter 272 He Reaps What He Sows



Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the past three days, Lu Fangfang has been tidying up the corn stalks in the wasteland by the river.

She even dug up all the corn roots in the field.

These corn roots are perfect for burning, so she used a hoe to remove the soil and left them in the field to dry.

She also dug out all the weeds with a hoe.

After tidying up the field, she piled up the chicken and quail manure she had collected at home and covered it with soil to ferment slowly, waiting to continue planting next year.

If we accumulate more fertilizer this year, the crops will definitely grow well next year.

After harvesting the corn, she waited to harvest the rapeseed.

The rapeseed along the riverbank has already passed its peak blooming period. In another month or two, it will be ready for harvesting and threshing.

Rapeseed grows much better than corn. The Qilian Mountains are a suitable place for rapeseed to grow, and it grows well without much fertilizer.

There's also a row of sunflowers in the field, growing quite well; her family won't lack sunflower seeds next year.

After finishing her work in the fields, she had nothing to do, so she decided to go to several brigades near the regiment to promote the farm's purchase of grass seeds and animal bones. She couldn't delay any longer.

That morning, Lu Fangfang got up early and ate breakfast.

She went to the breeding farm, hitched the wild donkey to the donkey cart, and prepared to take some corn to the sixth team.

"Oh...ah..."

"Little stubborn donkey, hurry up, we have to go to several brigades today. After we're done, I'll have Xiaohua catch some pikas for you to eat."

Lu Fangfang reached out and slapped the donkey's rump.

Strangely enough, the little wild donkey ate seven or eight pikas without any aftereffects, not even a stomachache, and looked even more energetic.

She couldn't be bothered to care anymore, as long as nothing bad happened from eating it.

"Oh...ah..."

The little wild donkey wagged its tail and pulled her towards the family compound.

As soon as she arrived at the gate, she ran into Gao Dajiang.

Seeing Lu Fangfang sitting in the donkey cart, Gao Dajiang quickly waved, "Little Lu, I have something to discuss with you. Come with me to the regiment."

"Whoa~"

The little wild donkey slowly came to a stop.

Lu Fangfang jumped off the donkey cart and asked curiously, "Commander, what do you want to see me about?"

"Your work permit has been issued, as well as yours for Xiaohua and your little yellow dog. Come with me to the regiment to pick them up."

"As for their allowances, there's no word from above yet, but I think it should be fine. Once Xiao Zhuang finishes this mission, I'll urge them. If all else fails, I'll use my salary to give them separate allowances."

While Lu Fangfang was happy, she also felt a little regretful.

She waved her hand and said with a smile, "Commander, don't joke around. How could I take your salary? It's good enough that they have certificates."

With the permit, she can now take Xiaohua and the little Tibetan fox to the city, which is something to be happy about.

Pulling on the reins, she steered the stubborn little donkey around a corner, then plopped down on the donkey cart.

"Commander, would you like to come up?"

"Never mind, it's not far from the regiment, I'll just walk."

Gao Dajiang smiled and waved his hand.

He quickened his pace, and walked alongside the little wild donkey, reaching out to pat its head.

"Xiao Lu, is this the donkey that spotted the spy that night?"

"Yes, that's it. I caught it in the wild. It's very stubborn, so I call it Little Stubborn Donkey."

"A stubborn little donkey? Donkeys are indeed stubborn."

Upon hearing this, Gao Dajiang couldn't help but touch it a couple more times.

The animals that Xiao Lu raises are all incredibly clever; even the donkey is so smart that it knows to remind Sister-in-law Shufen.

“Little stubborn donkey, you’ve done a good job too. Xiao Lu, in the future, when you’re free, take it to the regiment and let it eat some of the regiment’s fine feed as a reward.”

"Oh...ah..."

Before Lu Fangfang could reply, the little wild donkey's tail wagged happily again.

Lu Fangfang smiled and quickly thanked them.

As they talked, they arrived at the main gate of the troupe, and Lu Fangfang felt that something was different from usual.

Looking around, the layout and furnishings were unchanged from before...

No, the soldiers on duty at the entrance look different than before. They seem more energetic and vigilant.

Thinking back to what happened a few days ago, Lu Fangfang understood.

With the spy escaping, everyone in the regiment is bound to be in a bad mood.

Once inside the troupe, Gao Dajiang's face turned serious, and his previous smile disappeared.

As the two were heading to the office, they heard someone shout from behind.

"Commander, Commander, wait a moment."

At the main gate, Xu Jinbu quickly caught up.

Seeing that Lu Fangfang was also there, he frowned slightly.

He took another step forward and handed the application form in his hand directly to Gao Dajiang.

"Commander, I wish to apply for a divorce from Comrade Xiao Ting! This is my application."

"Her actions have nothing to do with me personally, and I am also heartbroken. I don't know why she did such a thing. I want to sever all ties with her..."

Lu Fangfang, sitting on the donkey cart next to them, listened with some surprise.

Divorce? Divorce from Xiao Ting?

She turned her head curiously and saw that Xu Jinbu had a dark face, bloodshot eyes, and a dejected look about him.

"The regiment has investigated and found that Comrade Xiao Ting's actions had nothing to do with espionage. This was a mistake on her part. The regiment plans to give her a major demerit and demote her, but she will not be dismissed..."

Gao Dajiang said, still feeling a bit of a headache.

Xiao Ting is, after all, the daughter of the old chief, and he really doesn't want to see the two of them come to this.

"Commander, please stop talking. I've made up my mind. I'm getting a divorce!"
