Chapter 106 : Getting a Big Deal

The news that the hydroponic seedlings survived spread throughout the army that day.

The entire army and the family compound were in an uproar!

Anyone who has been on Pingzhou Island for a long time would know what this means.

Cao Zhifang was so excited that he pulled Shen He to praise her again and again.

“You married a good wife! You have such a sharp eye!”

She solved such a big problem for the army as soon as she arrived. He dared to say that after the ship was open to navigation, the division would definitely commend her.

Shen He, who was being praised, had a smile that was obviously a little gloomy.

However, Cao Zhifang was originally a thick-skinned person, and he was so happy that he didn’t know what to do. How could you tell whether he was happy or not? Besides, Shen He had no expression on his face whether he was happy or not. Who knew what he was thinking?

If it were his wife who made such a great achievement, he would have to treat everyone in the family compound to a meal.

After a long round of praise, Cao Zhifang remembered to answer Shen He’s question just now.

“You mean Old Yan? He went to Sifang Island the day before yesterday and hasn’t come back yet.”

It turns out that there is a smaller island less than ten nautical miles away from Pingzhou Island.

The day before yesterday, the soldiers from Sifang Island drove a small boat to ask for support, and Yan Yixing led a few soldiers to investigate the situation.

After that, Cao Zhifang asked curiously, “Do you have something to do with him?”

Upon hearing this, a trace of haze flashed across Shen He’s eyes again. After a pause, he said, “It’s a little private matter. I’ll talk to him when he comes back.”

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, Cao Zhifang didn’t ask any more.

He mentioned the situation on Sifang Island to Shen He again.

“I heard from the little soldier that their island suffered heavy losses.”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhifang was a little puzzled.

Obviously, their weather station had already spread the news of the typhoon to the county and even to Beijing City as soon as possible. How could Sifang Island still suffer such a big loss?

Not only were there casualties, but also a lot of food was lost.

Shen He didn’t find this result strange, after all, evacuating villagers has never been an easy task.

“We have to wait until Old Yan comes back to discuss how to provide support.”

If there is a situation on Brother Island, they will definitely go to support it.

However, most of the ships on the island are damaged to varying degrees, and the ships that the soldiers drove over cannot accommodate so many of them.

If they want to go there, they have to use their own ships. Although their ships are not big enough, it is enough to drive to Sifang Island for rescue.

Fortunately, there are maintenance engineers on the island, who are now leading a team of soldiers to repair the ships.

Just wait for Yan Yixing to come back, quickly formulate an assistance plan, and then set out for rescue.

“Okay, then I’ll go back first.”

Without staying for long, Shen He left in a hurry again, just as abruptly as he came.

Cao Zhifang felt a little strange, but didn’t think much about it.

On the other side, Su Ranran, who had just returned to the family compound with a few military wives, saw a large group of military wives waiting at her door from a distance before entering the door.

Seeing that each of them was holding something in their hands, Su Ranran suddenly had a bad premonition.

When she was hesitating whether to leave first, she was stopped by Li Lanru.

“Ranran, these are the clams picked up by our children. You can take them back to cook soup. They are very delicious.”

Lin Qiulian also handed over the basket in her hand, “Ranran, these are oysters. Pregnant women eat them very well.”

“And these shrimps, cook porridge and they are fresh and sweet.”

For a moment, Su Ranran had the illusion of returning to the Shuiqiao Brigade.

“No, no, you keep them for yourself.”

But how could she talk to so many military wives alone?

They didn’t talk nonsense. They put the things they brought directly to her in the yard and left.

Su Ranran wanted to stop but couldn’t.

Looking at the pile of seafood on the ground, Su Ranran was a little confused.

Recalling the scene of being chased and fed in the Shuiqiao Brigade, she couldn’t help but shudder. The enthusiasm of the military wives is unbearable!

Shen He just returned home and saw his wife looking worried.

“What’s wrong?”

Now Su Ranran is a porcelain doll in Shen He’s heart. Seeing her expression is wrong, his heart can’t help but tighten.

Seeing him coming back, Su Ranran’s eyes lit up, as if she saw a savior.

She pulled him directly to the water tank and pointed to the pile of various seafood on the ground.

“These are all given to me by my sisters-in-law. What should I do with them?”

In the past, when she was in the Shuiqiao Brigade, Su Ranran would hide and push away anything she could, and she didn’t dare to accept other people’s things.

But the military wives seemed to know that she would definitely refuse. Not only did they make an appointment to come together, but they didn’t say much, just put down the things and left. She couldn’t refuse at all.

Looking at her pitiful look in embarrassment, Shen He was a little amused.

He rubbed her little head, paused, and then said, “It’s okay to accept it. They are all picked up by the sea. You can give them some rapeseed.”

Su Ranran:…

“Will this be too much of a bargain?”

Although I know that there is a shortage of good rapeseed here, it seems that she is taking advantage of others by exchanging that little rapeseed for so many seafood.

“No, they will be very happy.”

His wife probably doesn’t know that she has now become a master of vegetable planting technology on Pingzhou Island.

They were so happy to get her seeds.

After all, she not only grew chrysanthemum, but also successfully grew water spinach.

Any one of them alone is enough to shake Pingzhou Island three times.

Hearing him say this, Su Ranran stopped worrying. Instead, she was worried about what to eat tonight?

Seeing that she had diverted her attention, Shen He was relieved.

But when he thought of what he accidentally heard at the back of the house at noon, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes. Thinking that someone was secretly plotting against his wife without his knowledge, Shen He’s eyes became colder.

How sensitive is Su Ranran? She immediately noticed that Shen He was in a bad mood.

“Is there something wrong?”

As she said that, she no longer cared about the pile of seafood, but instead cared about her man.

Facing her concerned eyes, Shen He’s heart softened into a pool of water.

But it was not easy to tell her directly about Liu Hong’s matter now.

After thinking about it, Shen He mentioned that he might go to Sifang Island tomorrow.

“The boat will be repaired tomorrow. I have asked Sister Zhong and others to take care of you. Don’t go to the hydroponic base alone.”

Su Ranran knew that he was scared by what happened that day, and did not refuse. Instead, she promised with a serious face “Don’t worry, I will go with them and never act alone.”

While speaking, she lowered her voice to show Shen He her little thing that can protect herself and is not easy to be noticed.

Seeing that she had a plan in mind, Shen He was relieved.

Sure enough, Yan Yixing came back from Sifang Island that night.

Shen He said a few words to Su Ranran in a hurry and then went to the army for a meeting.
