Chapter 44



After dinner, Lin Wanchun handed the baby to Qin Yan's care as usual, and went with Ji Hualan, carrying a hoe.

Yu Fangfang still didn't have to go to work today, so she followed suit and picked up a hoe.

"I have asked Director Ma to allocate some land to me. I will dig up the land later and plant tomatoes early tomorrow morning!"

In order to give birth to a beautiful daughter, she tried her best!

Yu Fangfang said with an ambitious look on her face.

Ji Hualan immediately poured a bucket of cold water on him.

"You have to do laundry tomorrow and go to work, do you have the time?"

Yu Fangfang: …

“Then can’t I plant them after I get back from work?” She turned to look at Lin Wanchun, “Wanwan, you can teach me how to plant tomatoes, right? Whether I can give birth to a beautiful daughter depends entirely on you!”

Yu Fangfang was originally pretty, and when she wasn't coquettish, she was really likable. Now that she was meeting her pitiful eyes, how could Lin Wanchun refuse?

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to finish your afternoon shift and then we can go grow vegetables together."

Anyway, it doesn't matter whether you go in the morning or in the afternoon. Growing vegetables is a simple matter.

When Yu Fangfang heard her agree, her tail almost fluttered.

She looked at Ji Hualan with a smug look on her face: See, Wanwan cares about me the most!

Ji Hualan: ...

Virtue!

Why didn't she realize how shameless this was before?

But this way she seems much pleasing to the eye than before.

Once she let go of her prejudice, Ji Hualan soon discovered that Yu Fangfang was just a little bad-mouthed, but was actually a pretty good person.

And once she identifies someone, she will directly drag him into her territory, like a real protector.

The three of them chatted and laughed all the way to the special field in the family yard.

Ma Qiuping came to the fields early. The sun was already high in the east. The sunlight shone on her body, and after a while, she felt a little hot.

She was wearing a straw hat and holding a hoe in her hand, burying boundary stones in the field.

"Director Ma!"

Seeing her, Ji Hualan greeted her from afar.

Ma Qiuping is the wife of Political Commissar Xu Kang. She is not only the director of women's affairs in the regiment, but also in charge of all matters concerning the family courtyard.

And she is like an older sister, not only humble but also very friendly.

The wives of the soldiers in the regiment like to ask her for help with everything.

Lin Wanxun hadn't had the time to visit her yesterday, but her family did come to visit them.

Therefore, she had a very good impression of this director.

"Director Ma."

She also greeted him.

Yu Fangfang even jumped directly in front of her.

"Director Ma, where is my land? I can't wait to open up the wasteland and grow vegetables!"

Ma Qiuping felt both amused and helpless when she saw her acting like a naughty monkey.

"I'm here with you, why are you in such a hurry?"

After saying that, he nodded to the other two people, and then said with a smile: "Wife Qin Yan, I have buried the boundary stones in your land, come and have a look."

It's not like collective labor in a production team. After all, some military wives have to go to work, and some are unwilling to work even though their families are well off.

Farming is done on a voluntary basis.

Whoever wants it can apply, and after applying, they can just plant it themselves.

After all, this is the border, the emperor is far away, and the movement cannot be carried out in the troops.

They naturally arranged it in whatever way was convenient for them.

The stone that Ma Qiuping had just buried was the boundary stone in Lin Wan's field.

She led her around and asked her to identify her vegetable plot and paddy field.

Yu Fangfang did not want the paddy field, but she was unhappy when she saw that her vegetable field was not next to Lin Wanchun's.

"Director Ma, you know me well. I have never even farmed before. How can I ask Wanwan for advice on farming if you assign me to such a far place?"

In the end, he forced her to change it for him, even if it was just a little bit smaller.

In the end, Ma Qiuping had no choice but to give her a triangular piece of land next to Lin Wanchun.

The terrain of this land is strange, and other military wives are unwilling to marry into the family.

However, Yu Fangfang was very satisfied with this.

"Triangles are good. They are the most stable structure."

That contented look made Lin Wanchun feel at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"How about I mark out a spot for you and let you make a parallelogram by yourself?"

Hearing this, Yu Fangfang quickly waved her hand to refuse.

"Farewell, I can't even take care of this little piece of land. You know what I'm capable of."

Hearing her say this, Lin Wanchun thought of her great achievements in the family courtyard and stopped trying to persuade her.

After the land was divided, Ma Qiuping left.

The vegetable fields here have actually been cultivated before, but no crops have been planted and the fields are full of grass.

Lin Wanshun did nothing the whole morning but weed.

Fortunately, she was used to doing farm work in this life, and she could do the work quickly and well just by relying on muscle memory.

Yu Fangfang was already out of breath after digging for only a short while.

"No, no, I need to take a break."

Farm work is really hard.

At this moment, she realized how great those educated youth who supported rural construction were!

Lin Wanchun didn't feel very tired thanks to the spiritual spring water, but the sun was too strong and it was very uncomfortable to be exposed to it.

After digging half of the way, she also sat down under the tree to rest.

The two chatted while drinking water, and after a while, Ji Hualan also came.

"This is such a horrible weather. There is no wind at all. It's so hot."

Ji Hualan complained while fanning herself with her straw hat.

Lin Wanchun picked up her water bottle and passed it to her.

"Drink some water and take a rest first."

Ji Hualan took the bottle, opened the lid, and gulped down several mouthfuls before she felt much better.

It was early July, the height of summer, and the sky was clear without a single cloud.

The three of them were chatting casually, and soon they saw Huang Fengying coming to the field with a big belly.

She was seen carrying two buckets on her shoulders, and three little girls in shabby clothes were following behind her.

The smallest one looked not much older than Miaomiao, but his hair was as yellow as dead grass, and his thin arms and legs looked like he had almost no flesh on him.

A pair of big eyes embedded in that skinny little face, looking a little scary!

The child probably didn't eat enough on a regular basis, so he fell every two steps.

Although she was still very young, she did not dare to cry. She got up immediately after falling down and followed her mother and sister, stumbling along.

Looking at those pitiful little girls, Ji Hualan couldn't help but sigh.

If you run into this kind of situation, you'll be unlucky for the rest of your life.

Although Lin Wanchun disliked Huang Fengying, she felt very upset when she saw the child who was about the same age as Miaomiao but was so thin that she was almost dead.

Unable to hold back, she asked.

"Does Director Ma not care?"

The Women's Federation is an organization that protects the rights of women and children. You can tell at a glance that this child has never had a good day.

"Of course I care. Why don't I care? You should be nice to your parents in front of them, but you should still do what you should do behind their backs."

Ji Hualan was speechless about this family.
