When Shen Qiqi heard the news that the town was going to hold a livestock breeding competition, her heart was suddenly like a fire ignited, and she was both excited and nervous.
There was anticipation in her eyes, as if she could see the shining trophy waving at her.
An atmosphere of joy spread in her heart. She imagined the scene, imagining herself standing on the podium, holding the trophy in her hands, with a group of laughing family members behind her.
"Competition? This is a great opportunity for us!" Shen Qiqi said excitedly, with a hint of trembling in her voice.
She rubbed her hands together, as if she couldn't wait to start preparing.
However, Old Mrs. Lu frowned, and an atmosphere of dissatisfaction permeated her.
She leaned on a cane and slowly walked towards Shen Qiqi, with obvious worry and opposition in her tone: "Qiqi, this competition is not a joke. If our family spends more money, it will be difficult to sustain our food rations this month."
Shen Qiqi knew that the old lady's worries were not unreasonable, but she still explained calmly: "Old lady, don't worry, we can use our improved technology to participate in this competition. Not only can we save costs, but we can also improve the quality of livestock. If we win, we can not only get the prize money, but also enhance the reputation of our Lu family."
Lu Qing firmly supported Shen Qiqi on the side. He patted her shoulder and said in an encouraging tone: "Qiqi, I will fully support you. We will definitely win!"
Hearing Lu Qing's words, Shen Qiqi felt a warm current in her heart surge again, and she felt the firm support from her husband.
She looked at every family member present and said, "We need to unite and believe that we can do it!"
”
However, at this moment, Ma Bo suddenly walked out from behind the crowd, his expression looking a little complicated.
He cleared his throat and said, "Qiqi, I know you have the intention. But for this competition, I suggest you participate in the traditional way."
Shen Qiqi was slightly stunned, a hint of confusion flashed through her mind, but she quickly regained her composure.
She smiled slightly and made up her mind secretly.
She knew that this was just a small challenge and she would definitely prove herself with her strength.
"Uncle Ma, don't worry, I know what to do." Shen Qiqi said firmly, her tone full of confidence and determination.
She turned and walked towards the livestock pen, ready to begin the next preparation.
Shen Qiqi looked at Ma Bo and smiled politely, but rolled her eyes in her heart: Old antique, want to make trouble again?
"Uncle Ma, the times are advancing, and pig farming must also keep pace with the times! The traditional way? Raising pigs by next year's competition will be over!" She deliberately used an exaggerated tone and cast a wink.
Ma Bo's face froze and his beard stood up in anger.
"How can you talk like that, little girl! The method passed down by our ancestors..."
"If our ancestors knew there was a better way now, they would definitely support me!" Shen Qiqi didn't buy his tricks and interrupted his long speech.
"Just wait and see, it will blind you!" She stuck out her tongue playfully, turned around and left, leaving Ma Bo standing there with a frown on his face.
Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi's back and couldn't help laughing. His doting eyes were so charming that they could be drawn.
His wife's ability to argue with people is becoming more and more perfect.
Shen Qiqi walked to the pigpen, and a familiar smell hit her face.
However, the smell is much weaker than before.
The pig feed she improved is not only nutritious, but also effectively reduces pig excrement and improves the pigpen environment.
Looking at the fat and strong pigs in the pigsty, Shen Qiqi felt very happy.
Each of these little piglets is her darling!
She reached out and touched a pig's round belly, and the pig hummed comfortably.
"My dears, after a while, you will be able to show your talents in the competition!" Shen Qiqi's voice was so gentle that it could drip water.
Lu Qing walked over to her, gently put his arm around her shoulders, and whispered in her ear: "Qiqi, you are amazing!"
Shen Qiqi turned her head and met Lu Qing's loving eyes, her heart as sweet as honey.
"Of course, don't you see who I am?" She raised her chin proudly.
"Let's go to the town to ask about the details of the competition." Lu Qing took Shen Qiqi's hand and prepared to set off.
"Wait!" Shen Qiqi suddenly remembered something, leaned close to Lu Qing's ear mysteriously, and whispered, "Let's go first... get some 'equipment'!" Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing held hands, talking and laughing all the way to the town's animal husbandry station.
Lu Qing's hands were broad and warm, tightly wrapping around Shen Qiqi's small hands, as if to pass all the sense of security to her.
Shen Qiqi felt the warmth from her palm, and her heart felt sweet, as if it were filled with honey.
She secretly glanced at Lu Qing and found that he was looking at her affectionately, with eyes so gentle that they could drown people.
When they arrived at the animal husbandry station, they were received by a animal husbandry worker named Zhao.
Livestock farmer Zhao doesn't look very old, but his hair is very sparse, and he looks extremely smart.
He adjusted his glasses that were about to fall off his nose and slowly introduced the situation of the game to them.
"The competition in this competition is quite fierce!" Livestock farmer Zhao shook his head, his tone filled with worry. "I heard that the Sun family farm in the next village has introduced a new foreign technology. The pigs they raise are fat and strong. They grow like balloons!"
Shen Qiqi raised her eyebrows, her heart was calm, and she even felt like laughing.
That’s it?
You still have the nerve to call it new technology?
