Chapter 107: Strange Involution
"Sifang Island is in urgent need of food."
Yan Yixing said with a serious expression.
It turned out that something went wrong and the people on Sifang Island received the evacuation notice too late.
In a hurry and without the crowd's cooperation, only half of the people were evacuated.
The others who remained in the original houses were directly crushed by the collapsed houses.
It has been five days since the typhoon. Sifang Island finally repaired a small boat and quickly sent people here to ask for support.
But the boat was not doing well. Just as Yan Yixing led a group of soldiers ashore, the boat broke down again.
That's why I have been delayed until now.
Yan Yixing had brought medicine and some food when he went there, but it was obvious that the food was not enough.
After hearing this, the conference room fell into a long silence.
Two soldiers and six island villagers died on Sifang Island, and dozens more were injured.
If they had not evacuated in time, they would have suffered heavy losses by now.
However, the food on Pingdao Island can only last for about 20 days.
If the ships were not able to sail, they would all be in trouble.
"Take out half of the food and send it over first."
Cao Zhifang said decisively.
There was not enough food, so they tightened their belts and ate less, so that they could wait for the supply ship to arrive.
But Sifang Island was almost out of food. Without support from Pingzhou Island, they would not be able to hold out for long.
And most importantly, Pingzhou Island now has hydroponic water spinach.
Water spinach can be planted directly after being cut. All they need to do is dig more hydroponic ponds and continue to grow water spinach, which can also be used as food.
The others also thought of this and became more grateful to Su Ranran.
Thanks to her for growing hydroponic water spinach, their situation would be even worse now.
Yan Yixing felt even more frightened, and there was a hint of guilt in his eyes when he looked at Shen He.
As soon as the meeting was over, everyone did not delay but went their separate ways to prepare rescue supplies.
Yan Yixing went straight to Shen He.
But before he could open his mouth, he heard Shen He speak.
"I'll tell you when I get back."
Although he didn't say what it was, Yan Yixing still felt a chill down his spine.
He didn't expect Shen He to know it so quickly.
And judging from Shen He's expression, this matter cannot be resolved with a simple apology.
He sighed and said nothing more. He turned around and devoted himself to the work of preparing supplies.
Most of the men in the family compound went to Sifang Island for rescue.
The remaining military wives still go to the hydroponic base every day to grow water spinach.
The water spinach grown in the hydroponic base is now the treasure of Pingzhou Island.
Everyone took care of it with great care.
When the cabbage sprouted, it was only the length of a knuckle, but the next day it was the length of a finger.
The growth rate is actually faster than planting directly in soil.
I don’t know if it’s because the seeds are so good or Su Ranran’s planting skills are so amazing.
In short, the water spinach in the entire hydroponic base not only grows fast, but also grows well. It looks juicy and very pleasing to the eye.
It makes people drool when they see it, and they even want to pick one and eat it raw.
Everyone became more grateful to Su Ranran for growing water spinach.
When Shen He was not at home, the wives of soldiers in the family compound came to help her spontaneously.
Some carry water, some collect firewood, and delivering seafood is an indispensable daily task.
Looking at the enthusiastic military wives, Su Ranran's heart was filled with gratitude.
At the same time, she became more and more strict with herself.
In her spare time when growing water spinach, Su Ranran continued her research on saline-alkali rice.
Every day I either soak in the hydroponic base or in the saline and alkaline sand.
Even when she stayed at home, she was never idle, but would just pick up a book and read it.
The military wives saw that Su Ranran had made such a great contribution to the army, but she was still humble and studied hard every day. They admired this beautiful but not coquettish military family member more and more.
At the same time, they were also thinking, Su Ranran is already so amazing and working so hard, and they are also military family members, so how could they fall behind?
For a while, the whole family was caught in a strange state of involution.
Everyone works hard every day to learn planting techniques so that when the hydroponic pool is expanded, they can also be independent.
The wives of military personnel have been with the army for varying lengths of time, but they have never been as united as they are now.
Without the usual minor frictions and calculations, everyone is working towards the same goal.
They felt extremely proud when they thought that in the future everyone on the island would be able to eat the water spinach they grew with their own hands.
The men who stayed in the family compound and did not go to Sifang Island also felt that the atmosphere in the family compound was unprecedentedly harmonious.
The women greeted each other warmly when they met, and then went to the hydroponic base together.
There are no more complaints or gossips, and everyone seems to have endless energy every day.
Seeing how harmonious they were, the men became more grateful to their sister-in-law.
On the other hand, seeing that Guo Datong had already submitted a divorce report, Lu Haiyan was like an ant on a hot pot.
Seeing that Yan Yixing was not at home, she went to visit Liu Hong every day.
Liu Hong was so confused that she was overwhelmed.
But she can't even protect herself now, how can I help her?
After Yan Yixing left that day, he never came back.
I heard that he had returned from Sifang Island, but he left without even returning home.
This was simply impossible before.
No matter how angry he was, he would never abandon Yan Xiaoxiao and ignore her.
But now he doesn't even come back to see Yan Xiaoxiao, how can Liu Hong not be panicked?
How could Lu Haiyan care whether she was panicking or not?
Isn't it all because of her that I am in such a miserable state?
She had heard that Guo Datong had the opportunity to change his career.
If Liu Hong hadn't instigated him, how could she have been divorced and Guo Datong have lost the opportunity to change his career?
"If you don't help me, I'll expose your affairs to the public! Anyway, I'm getting divorced soon, and if I don't live well, you won't live well either."
Seeing that she kept procrastinating, Lu Haiyan lost his patience and threatened her directly.
Seeing her crazy energy, Lu Haiyan couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
I regretted even more why I had provoked this crazy woman.
But Yan Yixing hasn't come back yet. If she really tells the truth, she will have to bear the consequences.
Thinking of this, Liu Hong could only suppress the anger and impatience in her heart and comfort her in a gentle voice.
"Instead of coming to me, you might as well go ask Su Ranran for help. After all, she was the one you pushed. Go apologize to her and ask her to help you persuade Captain Guo. He will definitely change his mind."
…
Su Ranran didn't know that Liu Hong was planning to target her again.
At this time, she refused the help of the military wives and started to grow rice seedlings.
Ever since Su Ranran was able to grow water spinach using only water, the military wives have had a blind admiration for her.
Not to mention that she wants to grow rice in saline soil, even if she wants to grow it in sea water, they think it will definitely work!
