Chapter 141 It doesn’t matter who planted it first

Such a development was unexpected by the military wives present.

Everyone knew that things were not peaceful out there, but they never thought that this would happen to someone they knew.

Chen Liangxue looked very unhappy.

He didn't understand why he was facing the fate of being caught when he came back after just going out for a while?

Only the reborn Su Ranran knows that this year is the last year for those people above to fight. The national movement that had originally died down is showing signs of rekindling.

Seeing that they were about to come forward to arrest people, Su Ranran quickly shouted to stop them.

“Wait!”

Hearing her voice, the villagers stopped in their tracks reflexively. They respected Su Ranran very much.

Not to mention her man's identity, her contribution to the island alone is enough for them to look up to her.

"Comrade Su Ranran, this is none of your business. Please move aside. We need to capture this stinky old Jiu."

The captain spoke to Su Ranran politely.

But Chen Liangxue and Su Ranran are now partners who are both teachers and friends. How can she give up?

"There must be a crime to arrest someone. I want to ask what crime he committed?"

Su Ranran asked seriously.

Although the other military wives did not say anything, they all stood in front of Chen Liangxue and glared at the villagers opposite them.

"Someone reported that he only collected wages but did not do any real work, and even stole public fertilizer."

Hearing this, Chen Liangxue's eyes widened and his gentle face turned red.

"I just picked up some leaves and manure for fertilizer, how can that be considered stealing public fertilizer?"

If he couldn't get any fertilizer from the team, why would he have to pick up water from the ground?

Upon hearing this, the captain snorted coldly, and then continued: "As long as it is in Hanshui Village, even if it is a fallen leaf, it is public property. You have no right to use it privately."

Now Su Ranran finally understood. This was clearly a false accusation.

Stealing fertilizer was just an excuse. It must be that someone in the team was not used to the fact that Chen Liangxue, as a technician, received a salary every month.

Chen Liangxue himself is a technical person with a simple mind. Apart from doing research, he does not pay attention to other things, let alone build good relationships with the people in the team.

This also resulted in the villagers having no idea that his major was rice research.

Seeing that he had the title of technician but had not achieved any results, some people in the village couldn't stand it anymore.

He just wanted to take advantage of the dancing flames to knock him down.

But Chen Liangxue did not understand the twists and turns involved and was still trying hard to defend his right to the spoils.

Su Ranran was worried about him as she watched from the side.

Finally, she couldn't help it and interrupted the argument.

"You said he didn't do anything practical, but he has grown rice on the island. Isn't this achievement enough to earn him a salary?"

Upon hearing this, the villagers present all looked suspicious.

"I don't believe he planted this rice. Where did he get the rice seeds?"

"I gave it to him. My lover was there."

She is a military wife, and her lover is a soldier, and I heard he is a deputy regiment commander.

The villagers were completely speechless.

But some people still refuse to accept it.

"Then why did he plant it here secretly?"

This location is very clever, with huge reefs and trees nearby to block the view, and few people come here.

Hearing this, Chen Liangxue smiled self-deprecatingly.

"I applied to the captain many times, but he didn't agree with my research on rice."

Otherwise, why would he come to this corner and clear a field for himself to farm?

Even the water was brought here by him in the dark for a month.

Hearing this, everyone present fell silent.

Su Ranran was even more saddened by the fate of this rice researcher who later became famous.

Obviously, he is a talented researcher, but due to various reasons, he has to be trapped on this island and do a job that is not his job.

After finally growing a dozen rice plants, he was now facing the fate of being arrested.

The military wives were becoming increasingly angry.

They are fed up with people who spread rumors for their own selfish reasons.

Su Ranran looked at the captain with a cold face.

"Comrade Chen Liangxue is a rice researcher. The army leaders value his research and sent two soldiers to help him grow rice in the army. If nothing else, just because he grew these dozen rice plants, you have no right to arrest him!"

Su Ranran planted rice in the army according to her own theory. Chen Liangxue also wanted to try many things, so he planted rice according to Su Ranran's theory. Therefore, the research directions of the two rice fields were actually a little different.

It now appears that the rice grown by Chen Liangxue is in significantly better condition than that grown by Su Ranran.

These dozen or so rice plants will most likely be the only rice plants that survive this year.

This is something that has epoch-making significance.

For Su Ranran, as long as the rice can be grown, it doesn’t matter who planted it first.

After all, she had too many things, and she was afraid that she would be too conspicuous and attract unnecessary scrutiny.

Chen Liangxue himself was a rice researcher, so it was great that he was the first to grow saline-alkaline rice.

Everyone present knew very well what saline-alkali rice meant.

If Chen Liangxue can really make rice grow on all their islands, then he will be their reborn parent.

For a moment, the villagers no longer cared about arresting Chen Liangxue, and instead directed their criticism at the team leader.

"Captain, why don't you agree with him researching rice?"

Chen Liangxue has been here for such a long time. If he had done research earlier, wouldn't they have been able to grow rice sooner?

Facing the questions from the villagers and the soldiers' wives, the captain's face turned pale and blue.

In the end, he stammered and couldn't say anything.

The villagers were disappointed.

"I don't care. Comrade Chen Liangxue is the first person in Pingzhou Island to grow rice. He is the treasure of our village. If anyone touches him, the labor and capital will be angry!"

Those who were impatient shouted immediately.

"And I have to guard the rice seedlings here and prevent anyone from destroying them."

They finally saw clearly that there were people in the village who couldn't stand Chen Liangxue's good deeds and might even come back to cause trouble!

Suddenly, the villagers who had originally wanted to arrest people turned around and became people protecting Chen Liangxue.

Chen Liangxue, who was supported by the villagers, felt mixed emotions.

The ups and downs of the day left him physically and mentally exhausted.

But he did not dare to take credit for the title given by the villagers as the best person to grow saline-alkali rice.

"I can grow these rice crops thanks to the good rice seeds selected by Comrade Su Ranran. The rice seeds I selected before did not survive."

Su Ranran: …
