Chapter 364 Military Dogs Are the Cutest
Zhong Qixin was happy to hear her son's greetings, and her sad mood was relieved a lot. She said happily, "Okay, all is well. Don't worry. Just work hard in the army and don't worry about your family."
"That's good, Mom. Are you really okay? If not, I'll hang up. I have a meeting later." Tang Huan looked at the time on the watch on his wrist and said helplessly.
"Oh, I see." Zhong Qixin quickly told him that Yi Ke wanted to raise retired military dogs, or military dogs that the army no longer wanted. After that, Zhong Qixin added: "If it doesn't work, forget it. You must not, don't."
"Mom, that's great. There just happened to be a group of military dogs about to retire. Ask her what color she likes? Black? Yellow?" Tang Huan said.
"How can we ask? She doesn't have a phone number. So, you can keep one of each color and let her choose when the time comes. We can keep the one she doesn't want." Zhong Qixin thought that since they were in a faraway mountainous area, it would be impossible to ask.
"Brother, brother, choose cute ones. I like cute ones." Tang Xiner shouted into the microphone nearby.
Tang Huan's mouth curled up. His sister was indeed cute, but the cuteness of a military dog was not the kind of cuteness that his sister described.
He said to Tang Xiner, "Sister, military dogs are not pets. They are our comrades and brothers. If you think we are cute, then they are cute too."
Tang Xiner understood what her eldest brother meant. She remembered what Yike had said, so she said, "Brother, sister Yike told third brother last time that soldiers are the cutest people in the world, so military dogs are also the cutest in the world. Send them over. My sister and I both like them."
Tang Huan was silent for a moment. He liked the sister he had never met more and more.
"Mom, sister, when the military dog retires, I will ask someone to send it back. I have to go to a meeting, so take care of yourself. Goodbye!" Tang Huan put down the microphone and left. As he walked, he thought about his sister's words, "The cutest person!" Then, his sister would definitely take good care of the military dog and love it.
Zhong Qixin was still holding the receiver. When she heard the beep from the other end, she was reluctant to put it down.
"Mom, put it down, brother is leaving." Tang Xiner took the microphone from her mother and put it down, then pulled Zhong Qixin to sit on the sofa.
"You can't even say a few more words. You're always in such a hurry." Zhong Qixin muttered.
Tang Xiner comforted her mother, "That's how it is in the army. My brother can still make phone calls, but I heard that other soldiers can't even make phone calls. Be content."
"Kid, I just complained a few words, but you got on the job." Zhong Qixin stood up immediately after sitting down, "No, I have to call your aunt and ask her to tell her about this."
Zhong Qixin called Zhong Tongxin's school again and told her brother-in-law Liu Yu what happened. She asked him to tell her when he saw Yike coming back and asked if Yike wanted to go over to play during the New Year. Her grandfather, father and other brothers all wanted to meet her.
If she is going there during the Chinese New Year, she will help take care of the dog and take it away when she returns.
Yike didn't know where the military dog she wanted was. She and Ziyi had already given a hundred chickens from the mountains to Beishan Village.
In Beishan Village, the villagers saw the more than 200 chicks and 300 eggs brought by Ziyi and Yike, and they excitedly surrounded the chicken farm and were reluctant to leave.
Li Haoran came out to advise everyone to watch from a distance, not to get close, and certainly not to make loud noises, as this would scare the chicks and make them sick.
The members all watched the furry little creatures obediently from afar, flapping their wings and running happily in the sunshine, and their hearts were filled with joy as well.
Production team leader Wang Jianjun came out of the chicken farm and said happily to the members: "Three hundred and fifty eggs are good, and a dozen are broken. Those three hundred and fifty have been put into the hatchery. Soon, our chicken farm will have nearly eight hundred chickens."
"Haha." A member laughed happily, and the member next to him bumped into him hard. The member stopped laughing immediately, but his cheeks bulged like a clam, which was funny to see.
"Don't laugh here, you'll scare the chickens. Be careful or I'll skin you alive," Captain Wang Jianjun scolded.
"Captain, can we really feed all these chickens?" a member asked worriedly.
"Yes, with Ziyi's wife here, there's no problem. You don't know, the chicks were just released and they were still very scared. Ziyi's wife prescribed some medicine and asked my daughter Zi Cuiping and my aunt to feed the medicine to the chicks one by one. In just one night, the chicks were full of life and not at all listless. You can see now how happily the chicks are running." Wang Junxiao said in a low voice.
"What kind of medicine is this? It's so good. My husband used to buy chicks from other people's homes, but they would wilt for two or three days at most. Some of them even died. He was so heartbroken." A member of the cooperative felt a little depressed when talking about his wife's experience in raising chickens.
Captain Wang Jianjun said proudly: "You are raising chickens with a traditional method. To put it bluntly, you are just letting the chickens fend for themselves. Ziyi's wife teaches us scientific methods of raising chickens. The medicine they give to chickens is called a stress medicine. Oh, I almost forgot."
One member joked: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember anything in your head, as long as our technicians remember it."
Some members also said: "Ask the technician to write it down. Didn't the people in the cowshed tell us when they were teaching us literacy? A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Ziyi and his wife are not in the village often."
"It's okay. Aren't we cooperating with that village now? So the couple will come back often in the future." Captain Wang Jianjun said nonchalantly.
"It's great, this kind of cooperation is great. I saw a lot of grain being delivered to the farm warehouse that day. My heart has been beating fast these days." The member even pressed his chest exaggeratedly.
"There will be better things in the future. Haha, let's go, for a better future, let's act like kids today and go find earthworms to plant seeds." Wang Jianjun waved his hand and invited everyone to get to work.
As a result, there was a scene in Beishan Village where adults and children worked together. In the ravines, when adults dug with hoes, as long as earthworms emerged, the children next to them would scoop up the mud and earthworms into buckets.
The children in Beishan Village are the happiest today. In the past, they were always scolded by adults when they dug earthworms for fishing. Today, the adults asked them to take them to find earthworms, and they also received work points.
The entire Beishan Village was busy searching for earthworms.
One member of the cooperative said as he searched: "I didn't know that earthworms could be farmed before. I thought earthworms were good things and earthworm manure was the best fertilizer."
"Haha, if you had known earlier, you would still be hungry. With your limited ability, you are lucky not to have starved to death."
"Who is incompetent? I'm just not as capable as Ziyi and Yike. Humph, you're talking as if you're more capable."
"That's definitely better than yours. Haha, look at the earthworms in my bucket. Aren't there more than yours?"
"Humph, I will soon surpass you, brat. Don't you see that they have more than us? Hurry up and take me to the place where you used to dig earthworms. Why are you standing there like an idiot?"
Amidst the laughter, earthworms fell into their buckets one by one. The earthworms twisted and struggled in the buckets, thinking that their lives were in danger...
