We had agreed to visit Wang Jianguo, but the next few days were extremely busy. The seeds hadn't been sown yet, so naturally they couldn't ask for leave. He Siwei and Tang Shuang kept digging for wild vegetables every day. Jiang Lifeng had picked up wild vegetables at the camp headquarters earlier. After returning from collecting some vegetable seeds, He Siwei and Tang Shuang took advantage of the good weather these two days to plow a vegetable plot behind the camp. They simply made ridges and planted all the vegetable seeds.
Tang Shuang looked at the vegetable patch with his hands on his hips, "When I go to my elder brother's place, I will ask him to get me some potatoes. Let's plant them when we come back, so that we can have potatoes to eat in the winter."
He Siwei said, "Get some more melon and radish seeds, and plant more melons. They can be eaten as both vegetables and grain."
Tang Shuang said, "The Great Northern Wilderness is too desolate. You can't even buy these seeds if you want."
He Siwei is not worried about this, "Just go to the company and ask for some. They built the field early. They usually grow vegetables and dry some seeds in autumn."
Tang Shuang saw hope, "As long as you have a place, let my elder brother help you get it."
The two usually dig wild vegetables and cook, and even set up a vegetable patch. The same change occurred in the tent. When He Siwei and Tang Shuang cooked, they set up wood and didn't have to look at the fire all the time. Taking advantage of this During the free time, the two used shovels to pile up soil outside the tent, and dug a waterproof ditch up to the knees. The waterproof ditch was dug all the way to the depression behind the tent, so that if they went further, the tent would not be soaked in water. .
He Siwei approached Zhao Yongmei privately and discussed with her how to use some wood to pave the ground in the tent, so as to save the time when it rains and the tent is still muddy.
Zhao Yongmei agreed, but she said, "This matter must be discussed with Director Xiao. I have no problem with it."
Call He Siwei to find Xiao Shougen.
On sunny days, as long as he didn't rest, Xiao Shougen would take the male employees to build a small fire outside. With the mountain fire incident, they no longer dared to set the fire on the ground like before, but on the ground. A pit was dug and stones were piled around it. Only three wooden plows were placed in the pile. The fire was not big, but it would not cause sparks to fly in all directions due to the wind.
Xiao Shougen heard He Siwei's idea and did not object. He didn't say much about it, but mentioned going to the military hospital.
"Last time I said I was going to visit the doctor, but I never had time. Now that the seeds have been sown, the field will still open up wasteland. There is no rush. You go back and discuss it and send two people to visit Field Director Wang."
Zhao Yongmei walked with the mission to the tent with He Siwei. On the way, she offered to let He Siwei go, "In that wildfire, you stood up and took charge. Everyone saw it and asked you to visit the doctor. Who There will be no objection.”
He Siwei was still thinking about how to take the initiative to speak. When Zhao Yongmei handed over the opportunity, she didn't hesitate, "Then I won't be polite to you. I will remember this time."
Zhao Yongmei smiled and said, "What's the matter? It's natural to recommend you to go. No one will have any objections. I will also act according to the rules."
The two of them said polite words on their faces, but they both understood what was going on.
When He Siwei's accident happened, she gave Zhao Yongmei a chance to take sides. Zhao Yongmei chose her side and was on the right team. Wang Jianguo became the field director and confirmed that Zhao Yongmei was capable. Zhao Yongmei always remembered He Siwei's situation. .
Back in the tent, Zhao Yongmei told her about going to get the disease under control. As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Shuang spoke up, "Accountant Zhao, I want to apply for this quota. A few days ago, my elder brother sent me a message asking me to go on a blind date. I want to take this opportunity to have a look.”
Blind date is not a trivial matter, it is a life-long matter, so of course the court must approve the falsehood.
Tang Shuang and He Siwei have a good relationship, so it would be nice for the two of them to go out together.
Zhao Yongmei did not object, but there were others. She looked at the other three people, "What do you think? If you have no objection, then He Siwei and Tang Shuang..."
Sun Xianghong interrupted her, "Why is Siwei going? Director Xiao agreed?"
Zhao Yongmei said, "No, He Siwei and I applied for it on the way back. She knows medicine. She was also the one who dealt with Wang Chang's legs issue last time. I thought it would be appropriate for her to go."
Sun Xianghong snorted and said, "The scab fell off my back, but my back always hurts a little. I thought it would be a good time to check it out this time."
Tang Shuang was on a blind date, Sun Xianghong wanted to check her body, and she was injured while saving the field director. Both of their reasons were convincing.
Zhao Yongmei looked at He Siwei helplessly, and then said, "Then let Sun Zhiqing and Tang Shuang go."
Tang Shuang had no choice. Sun Xianghong's reasons really couldn't let her go. Zhao Yongmei also felt sorry for He Siwei, so she excused herself to talk to Director Xiao and quickly left the tent.
Tang Shuang comforted He Siwei in a low voice, "Don't worry about the seeds. I'll let my elder brother find them after I go to his place. Think about it, what other seeds do you want?"
He Siwei felt a little disappointed, but within the acceptable range, she said, "As long as it can be stored and can be used as food rations. As long as it is vegetable seeds, I want whatever I can get. Vegetables like cucumbers are fine." Sun-dry the vegetables in the autumn, then freeze them if they are no longer edible, and they will be just as delicious fried in the winter.”
Tang Shuang felt relieved when he saw that He Siwei didn't look disappointed on his face.
It was about to enter June, and there were already mosquitoes. He Siwei thought it would be nice to have a mosquito net, so he asked Tang Shuang to go out this time to see if he could buy a mosquito net. He also stuffed her with money and tickets and said he could use it. It's okay if it's too old as long as it doesn't have any holes.
Teng Fengqin heard mosquitoes chirping in her ears and raised her hand to wave. From time to time, a "pop" sound came from the dark tent, indicating that someone was swatting mosquitoes.
Also sleeping together, He Siwei and Tang Shuang were much more comfortable at the door. Although there was no mosquito net, He Siwei brought back some mugwort during the day to smoke out the mosquitoes. The effect was not very good, but it was better than nothing.
At night, He Siwei was awakened and heard someone walking over his head. He gently opened the tent curtain and went out.
Just thinking it was convenient for someone, he turned over and continued to sleep.
Outside, the moon is very big, and the moonlight falls on the earth, allowing people to see everything around them clearly.
Sun Xianghong paused and walked to the east side of the tent, where the pails were placed. He walked around to the back of the shed, where a man was already waiting.
Hearing someone coming, the person standing there turned around and confirmed that the person coming was Sun Xianghong. Without saying anything, he turned back and walked east. Sun Xianghong followed quietly. The two of them went deep into the weeds before stopping. .
Sun Xianghong waited for a while and lost patience, "What do you want from me?"
Xiao Shougen said, "Are you going to visit a doctor?"
Sun Xianghong explained impatiently, "I'm here to see a doctor, and secondly, I'm visiting Director Wang."
In the darkness, Xiao Shougen had a rarely seen anger and jealousy on his face, "You just chose Wang Jianguo, right?"
Before Sun Xianghong could speak, he added, "Last time in the mountain fire, you didn't care about your own safety and jumped on him. You couldn't say that you had no other thoughts about him, right?"
