Chapter 139 Director Shen is Back
Although Fubao has escaped the most dangerous danger to his life, his body is still extremely weak, like a fragile kitten. He needs a long period of careful care and nursing to slowly recover.
But at this moment, Shen Lingning's eyes were firm and clearer than ever before.
Having experienced true purgatory, touched the coldness of death with her own hands, and lost her greatest dependence, she became like tempered steel.
Shedding all her fears and hesitations, she developed a chilling courage and clear wisdom to "live towards death." She no longer saw the rumors and suppression from the outside world as an unbearable burden, but as obstacles that must be completely crushed and leveled.
When the family of three was happily reunited, the space suddenly changed.
The spiritual tea tree in the space seemed to be about to sprout after Fubao woke up. At this moment, a green vitality flourished, and the spores suddenly trembled violently and abnormally!
Shen Lingning subconsciously probed his spiritual sense into the space to see. Under Shen Lingning's incredulous gaze, the spores grew wildly at a speed that was almost burning life!
Only after returning to the provincial military region and settling down did Shen Lingning have the opportunity to carefully explore the changes in himself.
That night, after coaxing Fubao to sleep, her mind sank into space, and the scene before her shocked her!
The space that was originally on the verge of death seemed to have experienced a rebirth like a phoenix from the nirvana.
Although the once familiar villa courtyard has disappeared, the entire space has become more open and full of primitive vitality.
The most eye-catching thing is the spiritual spring. It is no longer a small puddle, but has gushed out into a crystal clear, gurgling stream, winding into a graceful S shape, dividing the space into two. The gurgling stream exudes a richer breath of vitality than ever before.
Beside the stream, the spiritual tea tree that had once completely withered has now taken root and sprouted again, growing into a small tree with lush branches and leaves, about one meter tall!
The trunk is strong and vigorous, the leaves are emerald green, and each leaf seems to have a bright light flowing on it. You can feel a refreshing and soothing air in every breath.
Shen Lingning subconsciously reached out and touched a piece of tea leaves, and a warm stream of information instantly flooded into his mind: This leaf contains vitality, can regulate the body, eliminate lesions, and long-term drinking can even strengthen the foundation, and there is a glimmer of hope for those who are seriously injured and dying!
This is no longer a simple way to refresh the mind, but it truly has the miraculous effect of "curing diseases and saving lives"!
Although the appearance of the space has changed, its functionality has made a qualitative leap!
Shen Lingning was ecstatic, as this meant that Zhou Weiguo's subsequent recovery and Fubao's thorough conditioning would have stronger guarantees.
She carefully led out a small amount of water from the space stream and mixed it into her daily drinking water. She also picked a few young leaves to dry and make tea for Zhou Weiguo.
However, after a few days of warm days, a telegram from Songtaogou broke the peace.
The telegram sent by Aunt Sun was written in sloppy handwriting and contained an anxious tone: "Lingning, return home immediately! The county has suddenly issued a document stating that my tea plantation is illegally occupying forest land and is affecting the water and soil. I have half a month to destroy the tea seedlings myself, otherwise I will be forced to do so!"
Shen Lingning's heart sank instantly. The tea plantation was the hard work of hundreds of military families and an important source of foreign exchange. The procedures were complete and there had never been any problems before. Why would they suddenly be asked to raze it?
There must be someone behind this!
Considering the vicious rumors that spread during Fubao's serious illness, and the network of interests that might be involved in the Yaowang Valley tomb robbery, she keenly felt that this was a targeted attack.
Although Zhou Weiguo has regained consciousness, he is still very weak and requires long-term recovery.
Shen Lingning didn't want him to worry about this matter just after waking up.
She put the telegram away and said calmly to Zhou Weiguo, who was undergoing rehabilitation training, "There's a technical problem at Chashan, and Aunt Sun asked me to go back and take a look. You rest and recover, I'll be back as soon as I'm done."
Zhou Weiguo glanced at her with a deep gaze, as if he had noticed something, but in the end he just nodded and held her hand: "Be careful, and feel free to contact Uncle Zhao if anything happens."
Shen Lingning settled his home and prepared to return to Songtaogou the next day.
Before leaving, she went to Zhao Changhe and told him the telegram and her doubts. Zhao Changhe's face turned serious and he instructed his secretary to immediately check the source of the document.
Unbeknownst to Shen Lingning, at the same time she was on her way home, several people were having a private conversation in an office in Zixing County. On the table lay a copy of the document regarding the razing of the tea mountain. Between the fingers of one of them was a rare imported cigarette...
When Shen Lingning brought Fubao back to Songtaogou, he saw a gloomy and gloomy scene.
She entrusted Fubao to a reliable neighbor and hurried to the tea mountain to check the situation.
On the tea mountain, the burned tea trees have been cleaned up, and the ashes have been buried on the spot to make compost. The green tea seedlings are growing well. During the month when Shen Lingning was away, everyone did not stop and continued to tidy up the tea mountain.
The days of rain have just stopped, and the tea mountains in Songtaogou are shrouded in wet mist.
This should have been the time when the tea garden was being rebuilt in full swing, but at this moment, many military dependents were sitting in groups of three or four beside the nursery on the flat hillside.
People had no intention of taking care of the green tea seedlings in front of them. They all frowned and whispered to each other, and the air was filled with anxiety and resentment.
"What kind of a thing is this?! We have all the necessary paperwork and have been approved by the commune and county authorities. Why are they saying we're not complying?"
"That's right! The tea seedlings are almost ready to be transplanted, and now a piece of paper is coming down and they want to demolish everything? Isn't this going to destroy our livelihood?"
"I heard someone in the county spread the word that since the tea fields have burned down, it's a good time to switch to growing crops. That's what serious farmers should do..."
"Bah! I think they're just jealous of our factory earning foreign exchange. Who are they standing in the way of?"
The buzz of discussion was like an impenetrable dark cloud hanging over everyone's heart.
At that moment, someone with sharp eyes spotted a familiar figure on the winding path at the foot of the mountain and immediately shouted at the top of their lungs, "Look! It's Director Shen! Comrade Ling Ning is back!"
The sound was like water splashing in boiling oil, and the crowd instantly became agitated.
Aunt Sun, Liu Jinfeng and other key members immediately dropped their work and hurried forward, their faces full of anxiety to find the backbone.
"Ling Ning! You're finally back!"
Aunt Sun grabbed Shen Lingning's hand, her voice choked with sobs, "Hurry up and make up your mind, what...what's going on?"
"Yes, Lingning."
Liu Jinfeng also said anxiously, "The document says something scary. It must be demolished within a certain period of time, otherwise it will be enforced! Our tea plantation's procedures are clearly fine. Isn't this bullying?"
Several older women nearby chimed in, pointing to the bare black soil on a nearby hillside where traces of the fire had been cleared. "Look, we finally cleared the burned trees and created a new patch of land. We were just waiting to plant new seedlings, but now they want to stop and shovel..."
