Chapter 95 You Married a Baby for Our Pingzhou Island
It turns out that the book that Su Ranran read a few days ago recorded the hydroponic technology of water spinach.
Just when she was about to give it a try, a typhoon came and she had to put the matter aside.
Su Ranran briefly explained the hydroponic technology to Shen He.
After hearing her words, the usually calm Shen He could no longer sit still.
He knew that his wife was very knowledgeable in plant research. Apart from anything else, the fact that she could make Chinese spinach grow on the island was already a remarkable thing.
Since she can explain hydroponic technology so clearly, it means it is feasible.
"Ranran, on behalf of the people of Pingzhou Island, thank you."
Shen He saw how hard his wife worked.
Apart from eating and sleeping, she spends the rest of her time studying her various planting techniques.
If this hydroponic water spinach is really successful, one can imagine how much of a shock it will bring to the entire Pingzhou Island.
Hearing this, Su Ranran couldn't help but glare at him.
"It won't be too late to thank you when you succeed."
She has never cultivated it, and it only stays at the theoretical and technical stage.
But when those eyes that seemed both coquettish and angry fell into Shen He's eyes, it made his heart soften.
He was already feeling emotional because of what he had just said, so how could he bear the coquettish look of his wife?
His Adam's apple moved imperceptibly, and after a pause, Shen He said, "You eat first, I'll go make a report."
Hearing this, Su Ranran felt a little strange.
"In such a hurry? Can't you finish your meal first?"
"Well, it takes time to file a report. The sooner the better."
After saying this, Shen He didn't even bother to eat and left in a hurry.
Su Ranran: …
On the other hand, Liu Hong, who had just experienced a force 18 typhoon, was still a little frightened.
Last night she did not follow the main force, but was at another gathering point.
Unexpectedly, the door was blown apart, and she was hit by tiles that were blown in from nowhere.
At this time, there was a large black spot on her shoulder, and it hurt a lot when she moved.
Yan Yixing was the only one in the family who was busy running around. He had time to repair the roof but had no time to clean the house.
The yard was managed to be tidied up enough to be presentable, but the room was still a mess.
Even the quilts and clothes were only quickly dried without having time to rinse them. The family of three lived like this for the whole day.
At this time, the three of them were eating the food that Yan Yixing brought back from the army, but their faces were all solemn.
Yan Yixing was worried about the same thing as Shen He. If the ships were unable to sail for a long time, not only would they not be able to eat vegetables, they might even run out of food.
Just catching sea fish is not enough to support the food and drink of so many people.
What's more, it's not possible to catch a lot of fish every time.
Liu Hong's focus was different from Yan Yixing's. When she heard that the vegetables were only enough to supply the islanders for a few days and it was unknown when the next supply ship would arrive, her face turned a little unhappy.
"Why don't you bring back some more vegetables?"
She shouldn't have come to this damn place. There's nothing she wants here, and now even the vegetables are running out. How could she tolerate this?
Hearing this, Yan Yixing's already solemn expression suddenly became even uglier.
"That's the supply for Pingzhou Island. The people of the entire Pingzhou Island depend on these vegetables."
But Liu Hong disagrees.
"You are the political commissar, so what's wrong with asking for some vegetables? If you are too embarrassed to ask, I will ask Xiao Meng to bring them to us."
In her mind, there is nothing wrong with leaders eating well.
"Liu Hong!"
Yan Yixing's face darkened, "I'll just pretend you didn't say that!"
He is a soldier. Not to mention taking people's things, even thinking about it is a crime.
After being yelled at by him, Liu Hong, who was already frightened by the typhoon, burst into tears out of grievance.
"You are mean to me! How dare you mean to me! You were the one who forced me to come to this shabby place, but I got nothing. I am doing fine at home. If it weren't for you, would I have to endure this?"
Hearing her crying, Yan Yixing couldn't help but feel a pain in his forehead.
But in the end he still held back and patiently advised: "Some vegetables will be distributed in due time. If we eat them sparingly, it will be enough to eat for several days."
But how could Liu Hong listen to what he said?
Thinking about the fact that she had suffered so much on the island and was now injured, she felt even more aggrieved.
The tears couldn't be stopped.
Yan Xiaoxiao, who was standing by, looked at Yan Yixing, then at Liu Hong, and started crying too.
"Dad, Mom, please stop arguing. Xiaoxiao will listen to you."
The two children, one big and one small, cried at the same time, and Yan Yixing felt like his head was about to explode.
But no matter how much of a headache it was, there was no way he would compromise on this matter.
In the end, Yan Yixing ignored Liu Hong and directly picked up Yan Xiaoxiao and walked out of the yard to coax her.
As soon as Shen He arrived at Yan's house, he saw Yan Yixing busy coaxing the child.
When Yan Yixing saw him, he immediately ignored Yan Xiaoxiao who was crying.
"What's the matter?"
He knew Shen He too well. How could he show up at his house if nothing happened?
"I'm here to give you a report on the hydroponic water spinach."
Shen He spoke directly to the point. The main reason was that this matter was too urgent and he didn't want to waste too much time.
Hearing this, Yan Yixing almost suspected that he was hallucinating.
"What do you mean by hydroponics?"
Shen He directly handed over the report in his hand, "This is a cultivation method my wife has researched, which is to grow water spinach directly with water."
Although Yan Yixing came from the north, he had been in the army for many years and had been to many places, so he naturally knew what this dish was.
He once thought about whether he could introduce water spinach to Pingzhou Island for cultivation.
But the soldiers planted them several times and they didn't sprout, so he gave up the idea.
And now he's talking about hydroponics?
"Old Shen, you are not kidding, are you?" Yan Yixing's voice changed.
Can you grow vegetables directly using water?
If this is the case, wouldn’t it solve the problem of not being able to grow vegetables on the sandy land of Pingzhou Island?
"The report is already here, take a look."
Yan Yixing put Yan Xiaoxiao directly to the ground, snatched the report from his hand and quickly browsed through it.
The more I looked, the brighter his eyes became!
"Old Shen, you are not marrying a wife, you are clearly marrying a baby for our Pingzhou Island!"
Although the report was a bit simple, even a layman like him could see the feasibility of this technology.
"Then what are we waiting for? Tomorrow? No, I'll go talk to Lao Cao now and organize people to build the hydroponic pond tonight."
The army has nothing but a lot of manpower, so if we can build a hydroponic pond quickly, we can do it in one night.
Originally, Liu Hong was crying in the kitchen when she heard her husband praising Su Ranran in various ways outside. Her face suddenly turned dark.
"Yan Yixing, do you have any shame? Why are you praising someone else's wife so much?"
