Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer

Meng Xiaoman said casually, but Xiao Xiangdong's eyes lit up when he heard it. During his mission, he fought with soldiers from many countries and experienced firsthand the gap between domestic military equipment and foreign military equipment.

"Indeed, then how do you think it should be solved?" Xiao Xiangdong wanted to hear her opinion.

"Imitate first, then surpass. If you are able, overtake them in corners where they are weak."

Xiao Xiangdong couldn't help but applaud: "That's very well said. It would be a pity for you not to be a staff officer, Xiaoman!"

"Put it down, I'm just talking, I don't understand your stuff." She had only seen some on the Internet.

"No, no, you are standing on a strategic level. I will write a report to the regiment when I get back." Self-reliance is important, but it is also important to learn to see the world from the shoulders of others. It just so happened that this time it was confiscated A batch of foreign weapons can be used.

Meng Xiaoman didn't care about the butterfly effect her casual words had on the development of military weapons and equipment. She was thinking about Xiao Xiangdong's proposal to plant ginseng.

The growth environment of ginseng is harsh. It likes moisture and is not tolerant to drought, but it is not suitable for floods. It is afraid of strong light, but it must have astigmatism and cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. It is afraid of high temperatures and intolerant of severe cold. It likes loose soil and rich humus soil. , at the same time, the pH should be appropriate and the terrain should have good drainage.

As far as Yushan Island is concerned, Meng Xiaoman thought about it and concluded that the highest mountain in the center of the island might be suitable for planting. But we can only draw conclusions after trial planting.

After dinner, Xiao Xiangdong lay on his desk and started writing his report. Meng Xiaoman advised him to wait until the wound on his back was better before writing it, but he said that if he handed it in the earlier, he would be able to do something for the army. help.

Xiao Xiangdong wrote a thick stack of letters. By the time he finished writing, it was already late at night, but he did not feel the slightest dilemma. Instead, he was full of pride, as if he had seen the development of advanced weapons.

Early the next morning, Xiao Xiangdong went to the military camp and handed in the report. Meng Xiaoman went to the Yushan Brigade to ask Old Man Chen if any wild ginseng had been found on the mountain.

Wherever wild ginseng appears, there must be a natural environment suitable for ginseng cultivation.

"I have never seen such a rare thing as ginseng," said Old Man Chen, "but I heard that someone dug it up north of Lantau Island, but these are just rumors. I don't know whether they are true or not."

"Can you take me there to see it?"

"There are deep mountains and old forests over there, and it's not easy to get in. If you want to go, I can ask Chen Zhen to take you there, but not today. He's going to sea, so he'll have to go tomorrow."

"Okay, then let him go to the military area to find me tomorrow."

"Okay, but don't get your hopes up. If there were really ginseng, the villagers would have trampled that land to the ground."

Xiao Xiangdong was injured and Meng Xiaoman refused to let him go. Xiao Xiangdong asked guard Xiao Peng to accompany him.

Meng Xiaoman had experience in climbing mountains, and the three of them soon arrived at the northern mountain of Yushan.

"Here, sprinkle these medicinal powders on your body. To prevent poisonous insects, tie your trouser legs and cuffs tightly." Meng Xiaoman prepared the medicinal powder according to the recipe in the book.

"Sister-in-law, you are really good at climbing mountains. I can't even keep up." No wonder the battalion commander often said they were inferior. Even my sister-in-law was better than men like them.

"In my hometown, I was surrounded by mountains. I'm used to it."

After climbing for another two hours, when they reached the mountainside, Meng Xiaoman slowed down and began to search around. Neither Chen Zhen nor Xiao Peng knew ginseng. Based on Meng Xiaoman's verbal description, they couldn't figure it out at all, and they found it wrong several times.

"I saw some pheasants just now. Why don't you go hunt down two and eat them? It's not a wasted trip. As for the ginseng, I'll find it myself."

Seeing that they couldn't help much, the two went hunting.

After the two left, Meng Xiaoman took out several ginseng seedlings from the space and planted them in several suitable places. Wild ginseng is not so easy to find, so you can only try this method. In addition to ginseng seedlings, Meng Xiaoman also spread some ginseng seeds. Let’s take a look at the growth status after a while. If it’s still alive, it means it’s suitable for planting here. If it’s dead, there’s nothing we can do about it, which means Yushan is really not suitable for growing ginseng.

Few people come to Beishan. When they came back, they both came back with their hands full of trophies. Chen Zhen caught two pheasants, while Xiao Peng came back with a pheasant and a hare.

When he came back, Meng Xiaoman brought some dried mushrooms and fungus to Chen Zhen, thanking him for his help today and letting him use them to stew chicken.

Everyone in the camp had a big pot of rice, and there was no way to take the food back home, so Meng Xiaoman made it at home and let him have dinner here.

"Sister-in-law, your cooking is so delicious." The battalion commander is so happy.

"If it's delicious, eat more." Meng Xiaoman added another bowl of rice to him.

The matter about the ginseng on the north side of the island was still uncertain. Meng Xiaoman only told Xiao Xiangdong. As for the ginseng seeds, she only said that they were left on the old ginseng plant before.

The wound was almost fully recovered, and Xiao Xiangdong couldn't wait to return to the camp. He wanted to know what he thought of the report he submitted. Before he could go to the regiment leader Zhang Dechang to ask about the situation, political commissar Meng Changqing came to find him first.

The report written by Xiao Xiangdong is very good, but the opinions above are divided. One group of people believes that this proposal has a pro-Soviet and pro-American tendency and is an admission that we are inferior to imperialism. The other group of people believes that as long as it is beneficial to our own development, Everyone should be used, there is no doctrine in technology.

"Political Commissar Meng, you should understand what I mean. I definitely have no reactionary thoughts. I just believe that learning advanced technology can improve the level of our weapons and equipment and reduce the casualties of our brothers." Xiao Xiangdong didn't understand how reactionary thoughts could be involved. Go up.

"I understand, but I have to carry out the orders from above." As soon as these words came out, Xiao Xiangdong understood that the former had the upper hand in the end.

"So, you come to me..."

"You need to be temporarily suspended and subject to investigation. You are not allowed to leave the military camp until the matter is completely cleared."

"Political Commissar, this is too ridiculous. You know I didn't mean that!"

"I know, but the current situation is very complicated. The slightest disturbance may cause an uproar. You are on the receiving end of the gun this time. However, don't worry too much. It's just a routine investigation. Just take it as a good rest."

"Then Xiaoman's side."

"Don't worry, I will tell her."

When the military camp revolutionary committee brought people over, Meng Xiaoman was washing clothes. Several people closed the door and turned the house upside down without saying a word. Meng Xiaoman didn't know what happened, and no one said anything when asked. He just told her to stay calm and don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked.

The visitor rummaged through the cabinets, ransacked the house, and took away all the books on the bookshelves.

Something must have happened to Xiao Xiangdong, but how could he provoke the Revolutionary Committee? Meng Xiaoman thought about it and felt that it was probably the reason for the report.
