Chapter 41 Growing Mushrooms in the Gobi Desert
Meeting Huo Yanchuan's sharp gaze and seeing the doubt in his eyes, Wenrou's heart skipped a beat.
This man is too perceptive. However, whether he believes it or not, Wenrou still explained according to the words she had prepared in advance: "When I was in my hometown, I read about this in the newspaper and even went to the county grain station to inquire. I never thought that this information would be used here."
Although Huo Yanchuan still had some doubts about Wenrou's words, he didn't say anything more.
He nodded, looked at Wenrou, and gave her a gentle reminder, "If you're going anywhere in the future, just let the guards at the gate know. Don't come back too late; it's not safe for a woman like you to be out alone."
She responded gently, then asked expectantly, "What about the letter of introduction...?"
Looking into her bright eyes, Huo Yanchuan had no choice but to agree, "I'll go to the military base tomorrow to help you open it."
Hearing that Huo Yanchuan could help, Wenrou looked excited and said, "Thank you so much."
Seeing how polite she was to him, a hint of disappointment flashed in Huo Yanchuan's eyes, but he still said, "No need to be so polite. If we can successfully grow mushrooms in the Gobi Desert, it will be a good thing for the people here."
Huo Yanchuan looked at her gently. His usually sharp and indifferent eyes had become deep and profound. His usual indifference was gone, replaced by an undisguised appreciation.
Since she arrived, she has helped them solve the problem of water delivery and has also helped them grow mushrooms, expanding the types of agricultural planting.
Even he himself had never thought of doing these things, but Wenrou dared to try. How could he not admire such courage?
Wenrou didn't expect Huo Yanchuan to be so supportive of her. She had thought he would disagree and was worried that he would say she was just messing around.
After all, it's difficult for people here to grow crops, let alone anything else.
However, she also knew that this was only the first step, and there would likely be more difficulties ahead.
But she has made up her mind and will not give up easily.
Even Huo Yanchuan didn't realize that, at some point, his gaze was always drawn to Wenrou.
She always seemed to hold a constant stream of surprises, making him unable to resist getting closer and exploring her.
With Huo Yanchuan's help, Wenrou's situation became much easier.
"If there's nothing else, I'll go to sleep now. You should get some rest too." She was tired after a long day, so she told Huo Yanchuan and went back to her room to sleep.
Huo Yanchuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing Wenrou's tired face, he had no choice but to give up.
The next day, Wenrou got up early and refined the plan she had discussed with Professor Peng the day before. There were still a few points she didn't quite understand, so she decided to go see Professor Peng again after breakfast.
Just as she arrived at Professor Peng's door, she heard a familiar voice coming from inside.
Just as she was wondering what was going on, a familiar figure walked out from inside.
Upon seeing the person before her, Wenrou's face immediately darkened. "Zhou Chunmei, what are you doing here?"
"If you can come, why can't I?" Zhou Chunmei looked at Wenrou with a provocative smile in her eyes.
After learning yesterday that Wenrou had gone to Professor Peng's house, she took the opportunity today to come and help, with the aim of getting along well with Professor Peng and his wife.
She already knew about Wenrou's desire to grow mushrooms, so of course she wouldn't let her succeed so easily.
She was kicked out of the family compound, all because of Wenrou.
We'll settle this score properly once she marries Hao Gang.
"Chunmei, who are you talking to?" Song Yuqiu's voice came from inside the house.
Song Yuqiu also came out at this moment. When she saw Wenrou, her expression became a little unnatural. She then greeted Wenrou, "Xiaorou, you're here too. Come in quickly."
Looking at Song Yuqiu's expression, Wenrou could clearly sense that Song Yuqiu's attitude towards her was not as enthusiastic as it had been yesterday.
Seeing this, Zhou Chunmei felt even more smug.
She simply told Aunt Song about Wenrou's premarital pregnancy and her promiscuous behavior in the village, including seducing men everywhere.
When Song Yuqiu learned about this, although she was somewhat incredulous, she was still very conservative at heart and naturally could not accept the idea of premarital pregnancy.
However, these were all matters for Wenrou herself, and Song Yuqiu didn't want to have any prejudice against her because of this, after all, she had helped her so much.
"No need, Aunt Song. I came to see Professor Peng to ask him some questions. If he's not here, I won't go in."
Wenrou naturally knew that Zhou Chunmei must have said something to Song Yuqiu. Although she was a little disappointed by the change in Song Da Niang's attitude towards her, she didn't want to explain.
Those who believe in her will naturally believe in her; no further explanation is needed.
"Xiao Rou... wait a minute." Seeing that Wen Rou had left, Song Yuqiu regretted her attitude towards her earlier.
Seeing this, Zhou Chunmei smiled and stepped forward to help Song Yuqiu.
"Aunt Song, don't be fooled by her appearance. Let me help you inside, and you can continue telling me about the past."
From Song Yuqiu's words, Zhou Chunmei also learned that Song Yuqiu used to be the eldest daughter of a landlord.
Not long after she married Professor Peng, her home was ransacked.
However, her landlord father still left her a fortune, which went undiscovered and is now buried in her family's old house.
Once she's built a good relationship with Aunt Song and found out the location of her old house, she'll dig up that family fortune.
The couple were sent down here, and they'll probably have to stay here until they die for the rest of their lives.
It would be such a waste if no one knew about that money.
Song Yuqiu was also very grateful for Zhou Chunmei's help. Her legs were already a bit weak, and Zhou Chunmei had helped her fetch the water today.
"Chunmei, you're not married yet, are you? If my son were still alive, you two would be a perfect match." Seeing Zhou Chunmei's kind and hardworking nature, Song Yuqiu couldn't help but imagine how happy her son would be if he married her.
In her heart, she still conservatively believed that she should marry a virtuous woman like Zhou Chunmei.
Although gentleness is good, she has a stubborn temper, is straightforward, and has a lot of her own ideas. Such a woman is not virtuous at all and is indeed not suitable for marriage.
"Really? Then when you find your son, introduce me to him. Maybe I'll be your daughter-in-law then." Zhou Chunmei continued to coax Song Yuqiu, making her laugh heartily, the smile on her lips never fading.
While she was busy, she secretly took a packet of medicine powder from her pocket and poured it into the pot when Song Yuqiu wasn't paying attention.
This sleeping potion should be enough to keep the couple asleep for a while.
