Chapter 40 Doubts about Gentleness
When Wenrou arrived at Professor Peng's house, she saw that the door was closed, so she went up and knocked on it.
She waited at the door for a while, and then the door opened from the inside.
Song Yuqiu opened the door. When she saw that it was Wenrou, she was taken aback, and then said to her with joy, "It's Xiaorou, come in quickly."
Song Yuqiu liked Wenrou very much, not only because she had saved her yesterday, but also because of her straightforward personality and the fact that they got along very well.
"Auntie, I came here today to ask Professor Peng for help. Where is he?" Wenrou asked after sitting down and placing her things on the table.
"He went to the fields and will be back in a bit. If you're not busy, you can wait a little longer," Song Yuqiu said, as she poured Wenrou a glass of water.
Upon seeing the things Wenrou brought, she hurriedly declined them.
"We'll definitely help you if it's something we can do, but you should take this back."
Wenrou took far too many things; it must have cost a lot of money. How could the two of them afford it?
They haven't even repaid the kindness they received yesterday, how can they accept these things?
"Auntie, don't worry, I brought these things for you specially. The help I need from Professor Peng later is very important to me, and these things might not even be enough," Wenrou said, pulling Song Yuqiu down to sit.
Hearing Wenrou say this, Song Yuqiu became even more curious.
Besides farming, what other help can the couple offer?
The two sat together and chatted for a while. Wenrou waited for a bit, and then Professor Peng returned.
Seeing that it was Wenrou, Professor Peng greeted her, "Comrade Wenrou is here."
At this moment, Wenrou politely stood up and said, "Professor Peng, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."
"What is it? Don't be shy, sit down and let's talk." Professor Peng waved to her and went over to sit down as well.
Seeing that the two were about to discuss serious matters, Song Yuqiu stood up and said to them, "Then you two talk first, I'll go cook a couple of dishes, Xiaorou, you can stay for dinner tonight."
Wenrou responded gently and helped Song Yuqiu carry the things she had just brought into the kitchen. This time, she couldn't refuse.
After finishing her work, she finally sat down and started chatting with Professor Peng about growing mushrooms.
Upon hearing Wenrou's idea, Professor Peng asked in shock, "You want to grow mushrooms in the Gobi Desert?"
Wenrou nodded gently and explained her thoughts and specific steps to Professor Peng.
"Do you think this is feasible?" Although she was confident, she still had to humbly ask for advice from the experts.
After listening to Wenrou's story, Professor Peng's expression changed from initial shock to delight, and finally he looked at Wenrou as if she were a precious treasure.
"What you said is absolutely feasible. In fact, the Gobi Desert is the perfect environment for growing mushrooms."
Since he arrived here, he has had no opportunity to consider anything other than helping the villagers research how to increase grain production.
He also knew that food was more important to people than anything else.
If you asked them to grow something else, no one would agree.
Therefore, apart from grains, he never thought of studying how to grow anything else.
But the arrival of Wenrou gave him hope, hope of transforming the Gobi Desert.
Seeing Professor Peng so excited, Wenrou knew in her heart that the matter was probably settled.
"Xiao Wen, just go ahead and do it with confidence. If you don't understand anything, come and ask me." Professor Peng's gaze towards Wenrou now held not only gratitude but also admiration.
With Professor Peng's words, Wenrou felt relieved.
After the meal, she and Professor Peng discussed several feasible planting plans.
The culture medium and other raw materials are easy to obtain, but the most important thing now for growing mushrooms is to be able to buy the spawn.
"I'll go to the county's agricultural science station whenever I have free time these next few days." Wenrou took the plan and carefully put it into her pocket.
It had gotten dark sometime during the night, and she had to go back.
After greeting Professor Peng and his wife, Wenrou prepared to go home.
She didn't expect to come back so late today, so she didn't bring a flashlight.
The temperature was a bit low in the evening, so she wrapped her cotton coat tighter and quickened her pace toward the family compound.
Just as she reached a haystack, she saw two dark figures quickly flash past not far ahead.
Upon seeing this, Wenrou couldn't help but think of the two strange people she had seen that afternoon.
She felt a certain familiarity with that woman, especially.
Especially her walking posture, it's so similar to Zhou Chunmei's.
She spent half her life with Zhou Chunmei in her previous life, how could she not be familiar with her?
In the afternoon, she was only thinking about asking Professor Peng for advice on growing mushrooms, so she didn't think much about the two people.
Now that I think about it, that woman was probably Zhou Chunmei.
Wasn't she kicked out of the family compound? How come she's here again? And she's hanging out with that slacker man?
However, this was none of her business, so Wenrou didn't intend to interfere.
When she arrived at the family compound, she was surprised to find that Huo Yanchuan had returned very early that day.
When he saw that Wenrou was not home so late, his first thought was that something had happened to her.
Just as he was anxiously grabbing a flashlight and preparing to go out to look for her, Wenrou returned.
Seeing Huo Yanchuan about to leave with a flashlight, she casually asked, "Are you going out so late?"
"Where did you go?" Huo Yanchuan didn't answer her. Seeing that she was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief, but his tone still carried a hint of urgency that even he didn't notice.
Wenrou was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I went to find Professor Peng."
Huo Yanchuan naturally knew Professor Peng, but he was surprised that he had become so familiar with Professor Peng.
Seeing the puzzled look on his face, Wenrou quickly went inside, as it was too cold outside.
She also needed to discuss her mushroom cultivation plans with Huo Yanchuan and ask him to write a letter of introduction so she could go to the county's agricultural science station to buy mushroom spawn.
Upon seeing this, Huo Yanchuan realized that he had been too hasty.
He followed Wenrou through the door and casually closed it behind him.
Huo Yanchuan was also shocked when he heard that Wenrou wanted to grow mushrooms.
Hearing her share so much professional planting knowledge made him realize that he didn't know enough about her.
Huo Yanchuan looked gentle, but perhaps because he was the head of the intelligence team and possessed a professional sensitivity, he asked with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, "Where did you learn all this? Why did you suddenly want to grow mushrooms?"
Such professional planting knowledge is not something an ordinary person could easily understand with just Professor Peng's help, especially since he knew that Wenrou came from the countryside.
Her knowledge of this kind of information does indeed raise some questions.
