Chapter 51 Shen He in the Army
The rumors about the family compound turned out to be true!
The woman in front of him had flawless skin as white as snow, black and shiny hair like clouds, a pair of eyes that were full of water and life, a straight nose, and red lips that were tempting and tempting. She was so beautiful that one could not take his eyes away.
All of a sudden, Liu Hong was overwhelmed with all kinds of feelings, and her original sense of superiority as a city dweller had long since disappeared in front of her.
But she didn't show any expression on her face. Instead, she said with a hint of surprise: "Oh, it turns out to be the new deputy head's wife."
It was as if he had just seen her here, and the contempt in his tone made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
But Su Ranran didn't take such harmless words to heart, and just replied lightly: "I am Shen He's wife."
She didn't introduce herself, nor did she ask who she was.
When had Liu Hong ever been treated so coldly? She immediately felt very unhappy.
She glanced at her extremely simple clothes without leaving any trace, and finally she regained a sense of superiority.
After a pause, Liu Hong continued, "I'm Liu Hong, from Beijing. I heard that you've been working in the countryside for quite a while. No wonder you're so confident. I guess you must have learned a lot about farming in the countryside, right?"
From that mocking tone, who couldn't tell that she was saying that she was just like a country girl?
Su Ranran was not annoyed when she heard this. Instead, she said proudly, "We educated youth responded to the Chairman's call to go to the countryside to support construction. We must not bring shame to the Chairman. Not to mention growing vegetables, I am also good at growing rice."
She had a proud expression on her face, as if she had done something great, and she didn't feel ashamed at all about going to the countryside to work in a production team.
Liu Hong was so choked that she was speechless.
Does she still dare to say that her going to the countryside to work in the fields was not honorable?
Su Ranran didn't wait for her to react and looked at the basket in her hand with curiosity.
"Sister-in-law, are you here to grow vegetables too?"
Different from other people's dustpans or backpacks, Liu Hong's vegetable basket is woven delicately and exquisitely, and can be used as a decorative bag.
Looking at her clear eyes, Liu Hong felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.
Thinking of those people who had a tragic fate because they were too petty bourgeoisie, she subconsciously hid the vegetable basket behind her.
"I'll just come and take a look."
How could she have the nerve to say that she was here to pick vegetables?
Her vegetables were the worst in the entire garden; they were small, yellow, and all eaten by bugs.
"oh."
Su Ranran responded with a sound, but no one could tell what it meant. "Then I'm going to go grow some vegetables. Sister-in-law, you take your time to look at it."
As she spoke, she picked up the rapeseed in her hand and began to scatter it.
I don't know how she did it. It was a simple action of scattering rapeseeds, but she made it look like a painting, smooth and pleasing to the eye.
But you can tell at a glance that she is not planting it blindly.
The three people present were stunned.
It turns out that there really are people who can do farming work as poetically as a painting, and yet you don't sense a trace of affectation, as if they were born to be so elegant.
Liu Hong looked at the beautiful scene in front of her and felt extremely uncomfortable.
No wonder Shen He was so eager to protect the person after I just said one sentence.
For a woman like this, let alone being born in the city, even if she was really born in the countryside, a man would hold her in the palm of his hand.
Thinking of Liu Meng's words, she suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Su Ranran didn't bother to care about her mood. As for someone who was obviously hostile, she naturally wanted to stay as far away from her as possible.
It is enough to maintain superficial courtesy.
Zhong Juhua and Lin Qiulian didn't say a word the whole time. It wasn't that they didn't want to talk, but Liu Hong simply didn't want to pay attention to them, the military wives who came from the countryside.
After several times of getting bored, they were too lazy to bring it up.
Now the wives of the second-in-command and the third-in-command of the troops stationed on the island are obviously at odds with each other. If they join in now, aren't they just cannon fodder?
Liu Hong, who was wearing a dress, was left aside awkwardly and no one knew when she left.
Su Ranran's piece of land was not very big to begin with, and she was used to doing these things, so she was very fast and finished planting in a short while.
"Come on, Ranran, I'll take you to the sandy land. It's still in time to plant sweet potatoes at this time of year."
Seeing that Su Ranran had finished the seeding, Zhong Juhua spoke again.
"Okay, wait for me."
Su Ranran put away her things and replied.
Although the family compound allocated land to her, she still didn't know which piece of land was hers.
Lin Qiulian had nothing to do, so she followed.
While you're at it, take care of the sandy land at home, pull out the weeds where there are weeds, and build up the soil where there aren't any.
The three of them left the Bend Base directly and headed for the South Island Base.
The South Island Base was several hundred meters away from the Wanwan Base, and to Su Ranran's surprise, the amount of sandy land she was allocated was quite large, about two or three acres.
There are quite a lot of weeds on this piece of land, probably because no one takes care of it.
"Ranran, do you want to plant sweet potatoes? If so, just come to my place and cut the seedlings."
As soon as she arrived at the South Island base, Zhong Juhua began to pull out the sparse weeds on the edge of her field with great skill.
She didn't know what fate had led to her allotment of land next to Su Ranran's.
"Thank you, Juhua. I'll come to your place to harvest some crops after I finish tilling the soil."
Su Ranran said with a grateful look on her face.
The sweet potatoes grown in the sandy soil are very sweet and taste much better than the ones she grew in the Shuiqiao Brigade before.
Even though she doesn't like sweet potatoes, she will eat two more at every meal.
However, she only planned to use half of the land to grow sweet potatoes, and she planned to grow other things in the rest of the land.
I don’t know if it’s because the soil in this kind of sandy land is more fertile, but the grass grows more lushly than in other places.
Before she could grow anything, she had to weed the plants first.
Su Ranran is quite familiar with farming. She pulls out the weeds that can be pulled out by hand, and uses a hoe to dig out the weeds that cannot be pulled out.
These tasks were not very strenuous, and she did not feel any discomfort, so she had no plans to go back so soon.
The other two men, who had just pulled out most of the weeds in their own fields, came over to help her.
The three of them were pulling weeds together, and they didn't know how long it had been, when suddenly, a loud command came from a distance.
Then came the neat and unified slogan.
Su Ranran was startled when she heard the familiar voice.
Following the direction of the sound, I saw a team dressed in army green, walking in an orderly manner on the road outside the South Island base.
And who else could that tall figure leading the team be if not Shen He?
This was the first time Su Ranran saw him in the army.
He had a serious expression, sharp eyes, and his military uniform was soaked with sweat.
Even from such a long distance, I can still feel his masculine charm.
Su Ranran couldn't take her eyes off the masculine man.
At this moment, the person who was originally looking straight ahead suddenly looked towards her.
She had never seen such a resolute look in his eyes before.
Su Ranran's gaze became increasingly heated.
Her face was full of the expression of a little fangirl.
