Zheng Ya was worried about Zhengde's duties. When he got home, Liu Neng rushed to the street office to borrow a phone.
Director Wang greeted him with a beaming smile when he showed her his Ministry of Agriculture credentials. Liu Neng ignored her obsequious tea and water serving and suppressed his anger as he called the minister: "Minister, that Zheng Ya has some kind of ideological problem!"
With famine raging across the country, isn't it a great thing that our Ministry of Agriculture is letting him use his remaining energy to promote seed production and improve the nation's food supply?
Guess what his attitude was...
"So what's your attitude?" the minister snapped from the other side.
Liu Neng's heart skipped a beat as he listened, and he changed his tone to explain, "No, Minister, the famine in our country is a serious matter."
Zheng Ya clearly didn't want to force the seed to germinate; he was just watching the seed die...
"You bastard, in my opinion you're the bad guy."
The ministry made a mistake in sending you to contact Zheng Ya. Zheng Ya saved tens of thousands of people in the capital from a crisis yesterday, and you were one of them.
Furthermore, Zheng Ya was credited with cultivating century-old ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms, hunting tigers and catching dragons and pythons in the mountains, and cooking Dragon Tiger Bone-Setting Soup, which improved the physical condition of the leaders. What great achievements did he make? Why do you criticize Comrade Zheng Ya?
The ministry made it clear beforehand that it hoped Zheng Ya would help cultivate a batch of seeds, expand the seed range, and increase the number of seeds for next year.
Comrade Zheng Ya is skilled at stimulating the growth of century-old ginseng and lingzhi, but he may have difficulty directly stimulating the growth of seeds. You actually ignored Zheng Ya's difficulties and forced the martial arts master Zheng Ya to stimulate the growth of seeds. What are you trying to do?" The minister was so angry that he wanted to punch someone.
The Ministry of Agriculture and higher-level leaders intend to increase the quantity of high-quality seeds as much as possible for reserve grain seeds for the following year.
Who would have thought that Liu Neng misinterpreted the ministry's arrangements, forcing Zheng Ya to induce labor and causing a misunderstanding.
Zheng Ya made great contributions to the military and police. If it weren't for Old Sun stopping the leaders from celebrating Zheng Ya's achievements and awarding him medals to temper Zheng Ya's young character, the leaders would have already arranged for a celebration banquet for Zheng Ya.
The military and police were busy with the aftermath and didn't have time to express their gratitude to Zheng Ya.
Meanwhile, high-ranking military and police officials discussed releasing some of the enemy's agents and spies to play the long game and catch bigger fish.
To carry out this plan, it is necessary to distance ourselves from Zheng Ya for a period of time, giving enemy agents room to plot against Zheng Ya and get close to Wu Wei and Lao Yuan.
Otherwise, Zheng Ya's house would have been overflowing with guests long ago.
Zheng Ya's Dragon Tiger Bone Setting Soup alone is enough to make countless people flock to it, offering high prices for a bowl. Whether it's to show filial piety to the elderly, to give to wounded comrades, or to use themselves, it's a highly nourishing soup that strengthens the body and prolongs life!
Who could refuse?
The fact that no one thanked Zheng Ya or sought to purchase the Dragon Tiger Bone-Setting Soup is enough to show that the leadership intervened in the matter.
This was done intentionally, solely to capture enemy agents.
How could they possibly force Zheng Ya to induce conception?
Isn't that just playing the piano haphazardly?
Liu Neng understood, sweating profusely, swallowing hard, and struggling to find the right words, he said, "Minister, I... I was wrong, I'll go apologize to Comrade Zheng Ya right away..."
"Alright, just do as Comrade Zheng Ya says and try not to bother him."
"He's not someone you, a section-level staff member, can afford to mess with, understand?" The minister, fearing he might cause trouble, sternly reiterated Zheng Ya's special status.
Liu Neng repeatedly assured the minister, which reassured him and made him hang up the phone. However, Director Wang, who served Liu Neng, felt uneasy. Who would have thought that Zheng Ya would rise to power so quickly? He was filled with regret!
Zheng Ya returned home and met with Old Zheng, resolving the design and construction issues of the basement and toilet gas tank for the courtyard house. Afterward, he went to the seed base and worked with the soldiers to build the base's irrigation canal.
A reinforced battalion, with five companies and nearly six hundred people, was working diligently and making rapid progress.
This wouldn't be possible without the on-site guidance of designer Zheng Ya.
Brigade Commander Lei followed Zheng Ya throughout the entire process of directing the soldiers' work, keeping himself extremely busy.
Xu Qi, who was copying the notes, witnessed this scene and, noticing her mother-in-law's worried expression, said, "Mom, don't pressure your husband. It might not be easy to get a child born..."
"Daughter-in-law, tell me, why do you speak to him so wholeheartedly?" Fu Qingyao didn't understand why she never sought credit or got jealous, and instead focused on being Zheng Ya's virtuous wife.
Modern women, especially martial artists like Xu Qi, all aspire to achieve something and strive for their ideals.
The traditional image of a virtuous wife and loving mother, devoted to being a good helper at home, no longer meets the standards of a modern woman.
Or perhaps being virtuous is just a byproduct.
Xu Qi shook her head and smiled, "Mom, you are a section chief with ideals and pursuits, which are different from my belief in Grandma's teachings on family well-being and prosperity."
My family's prosperity brings prosperity to everything.
Since it's about family prosperity, there must be one person as the head, and following the head of the family's will to manage the family business is the right thing to do!
"Ah, that's an old-fashioned idea. 'Manage your family, govern the state, and bring peace to the world.' I'm convinced." Fu Qingyao said thoughtfully, feeling that Xu Qi was right; it wasn't out of step with modern women's pursuit of career dreams.
Instead, she pursues her career and dreams in different ways, and is happy to be a supportive wife.
This is a spirit of sacrifice and dedication!
Most people simply don't have that!
Fu Qingyao felt that her brat had struck gold.
Seeing that her mother didn't object, Xu Qi felt much better and smiled, "Mom, did you say something to your boss?"
"Well, Mom was just going through the motions of her job. Reporting to her superiors and exposing Zheng Ya's abilities was an unavoidable procedure."
"I was trying to pave the way for Zheng Ya, which may have attracted the ulterior motives of some people. I only found out about it later..." Fu Qingyao picked cabbages absentmindedly, glancing from time to time at the people in the yard who were watching the commotion from the outside. She felt that everyone in the yard was jealous.
They fawned over Lao Shen and Yan Fugui's family members, using them to relay messages to Zheng Ya, asking for positions.
The planting base has set up such a large operation, which requires a lot of workers. Even a fool can see that it has stirred up the minds of everyone in the yard.
Xu Qi also noticed the unusual behavior of the people in the yard and said, "Mom, I think it's enough for the head of the household to manage the planting base well."
At the very least, we need to manage the planting base well and prevent malicious individuals from infiltrating and causing damage before developing other businesses.
After all, the people in the courtyard and the surrounding neighbors are no pushovers!
"Daughter-in-law, there's a hidden meaning in your words, isn't there?" Fu Qingyao realized that her daughter-in-law didn't want to see any discord or conflict within the family.
This is a roundabout way of advising people, hoping that her mother-in-law will not put pressure on Zheng Ya and affect the relationship between relatives.
That can have an impact on family and career.
In other words, regarding issues like Liu Neng forcing Zheng Ya to induce conception, it is hoped that Fu Qingyao will speak and act from Zheng Ya's perspective.
The whole family worked together as one, taking one step at a time to manage the planting base well, and then we could talk about anything else.
Harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things!
Xu Qi knew that she had understood her hint and smiled, "Mom, the head of the household is still young."
Young people are energetic, but they also have short tempers.
He can't be as meticulous as his mother; she needs to give him time to build his career and life!
Family relationships also need nurturing and cultivation, don't they?
"Haha, daughter-in-law, you're amazing!" Fu Qingyao was astonished, feeling that her daughter-in-law was much more mature than her own brat. What a good thing!
