Chapter 106

The First Aunt was very surprised.

"They didn't before, but now they do; they are rivals in love!"

"Qin Huai is a disaster. As soon as she came to the Sihe Academy, things happened one after another. No, she can't stay in the Sihe Academy!"

Yi Zhonghai was very annoyed.

He wasn't targeting Qin Huai; he was targeting Wan Ping'an.

Whoever is with Wan Ping'an is his enemy!

"That's no wonder!"

"Qin Huai is such a young girl, she looks so fresh and lovely, even I was moved, let alone two big young men like Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu."

The First Aunt nodded.

"Anyone who is with Wan Ping'an is no good. I think Qin Huai is a vixen!"

Yi Zhonghai glared at the First Aunt.

The He family.

When Sha Zhu returned home.

He Great Qing had already gone out, and He Yushui had gone to school.

Feeling a bit bored alone at home, he wanted to go out for a walk and leave the Sihe Academy.

"Sha Zhu, over here."

As soon as Sha Zhu left the Sihe Academy, someone called him.

He took a look; there were five people, he recognized them, they were all from the neighboring courtyard, but he couldn't name them.

"What's the matter?"

Sha Zhu walked over with suspicion.

"Sha Zhu, I heard something happened in your courtyard yesterday?"

"Is it true that Deaf Old Lady from your courtyard wouldn't let Wan Ping'an farm and was sent in by Wan Ping'an?"

The five people were very curious.

Sha Zhu's face turned black immediately.

Yesterday, not only was Deaf Old Lady sent in, but he was also beaten.

"I don't know!"

Sha Zhu turned and left.

"Why did he leave?"

"I remember now, Sha Zhu has the best relationship with Deaf Old Lady and Yi Zhonghai. With Deaf Old Lady arrested, he must be very unhappy."

"No, I seem to have heard he was beaten and warned by the police."

The five people pointed at Sha Zhu's back.

Afternoon.

Wan Ping'an went out.

He took Qin Huai with him to his six acres of land.

Cai Quanwu and Old Seven and the others had already started working.

After a period of observation, Wan Ping'an initially trusted Cai Quanwu and handed over some matters to him, such as continuing to harvest the rice.

Woof woof!

Big Black came up to greet them.

It circled Wan Ping'an twice, then came to Qin Huai's side and sniffed carefully. It had Wan Ping'an's scent on her, so she was one of their own!

"Come, Big Black, I brought you some meaty bones!"

Wan Ping'an handed the meaty bones to Qin Huai.

He let her feed Big Black.

Han Dahe and Wan Ping'an walked to the side.

"Ping'an, I've reported the matter of the golden rice to the higher-ups for you."

"They will definitely investigate and verify it, which will take some time. There won't be any action immediately, so you might have to wait for a while."

Han Dahe explained the situation.

Any organization doing things cannot be like an individual; they can't just do it immediately.

The government has standard procedures.

"I understand!"

"Old Man Han, pick a few chickens. After Cai Quanwu and the others finish harvesting the rice, give them one each and say it's my reward for them."

"You should slaughter one for yourself to eat too, you've been working hard!"

Wan Ping'an said with a smile.

"Ping'an, you really are a good boss!"

"It's definitely our blessing that Little Cai and I can follow you."

Han Dahe gave Wan Ping'an a thumbs up!

Wan Ping'an never deducted wages, and the benefits were good!

While Wan Ping'an was supervising the harvest of the golden rice, the legend of the high-yield golden rice spread rapidly from the Red Star Sihe Academy to the entire street.

"Old Zhang, have you heard of golden rice?"

"Isn't rice always white?"

"I used to think rice was always white too, but now I know there's golden rice, and it's extremely high-yielding."

"High-yielding? How much? Eight or nine hundred catties?"

In a large courtyard not far from the Sihe Academy, a group of people were gossiping in their spare time.

In the 1950s, having just entered the new society, various technologies were limited. Usually, the yield per mu of rice did not exceed six hundred catties.

Even in some high-yield plots, it wouldn't exceed eight hundred catties.

Not to mention encountering drought or flood disasters!

"Add a one in front; it's over eighteen hundred catties!"

"Are you not awake yet?"

"You're the one dreaming. I'm very clear-headed. Wan Ping'an from the Red Star Sihe Academy grew golden rice, and the yield per mu is confirmed to be eighteen hundred catties!"

Evening.

Yi Zhonghai went home.

He took out a bottle of liquor and a glass. Without any side dishes, he poured a glass and downed it in one go, then downed three glasses in one breath!

"Master of the house, don't drink so fast. I'll stir-fry some dishes for you; drinking on an empty stomach hurts the stomach!"

The First Aunt pressed Yi Zhonghai's hand.

"Stop nagging, I can't eat even if you stir-fry dishes, I just want to drink some liquor."

Yi Zhonghai pushed the First Aunt's hand away.

"What's bothering you again?"

"Tell me about it, saying it out loud will make you feel better."

The First Aunt sighed.

She could probably guess that it was nine times out of ten related to Wan Ping'an.

"Sigh, when I came back just now, I heard people on the street discussing that Wan Ping'an grew golden rice with a yield of eighteen hundred catties per mu."

"They say he has immeasurable merit."

"They say he..."

Yi Zhonghai began to pour out his bitterness.

The more people praised Wan Ping'an, the more uncomfortable he felt.

In the end.

Yi Zhonghai drank too much.

He didn't even eat dinner and was helped to bed by the First Aunt.

The next morning.

Wan Ping'an and Qin Huai came to the six acres of land together.
