Daily Life of Pig Farming in 1970

72

Song Zhen and Su Yaoyun were both busy on weekdays. Although they were not apart for long periods of time, most of the time she and Song Zhen would leave early and come back late.

　　When the two returned home, Su Yaoyun was so tired that he just wanted to collapse on the bed and sleep, while model worker Song Zhen would choose to go to the study to continue working.

　　It was a rare opportunity to have such a warm time, and it was the first time that Su Yaoyun saw Song Zhen so relaxed.

　　So, she leaned half of her body gently in Song Zhen's arms, listening to the man's strong heartbeat and chatting with him casually.

　　But after a while, I don’t know if it was because I was too tired or Song Zhen’s heartbeat was too hypnotic.

　　She soon felt sleepy and slowly closed her eyes.

Seeing this, Song Zhen reached out and pulled the blanket over her.

　　Then Su Yaoyun asked, "What did Mr. Yan want to talk to us about this afternoon?"

　　In her sleepy state, she suddenly remembered that Mr. Yan had said in the afternoon that he wanted to discuss something with her.

　　Hearing this, Song Zhen paused in covering the quilt, frowned, and said nothing.

　　After a long while, there was no response. She opened her pair of black and white eyes and looked at Song Zhen in confusion.

　　Song Zhen said: "Take a good rest first and we'll talk about it tomorrow, okay?"

　　Su Yaoyun also noticed his abnormality. His sleepiness dissipated a lot and he half propped himself up.

　　Some asked worriedly: "Did something happen?"

　　Seeing his reflection in Su Yaoyun's watery eyes, Song Zhen couldn't help but lower his head and kiss him.

　　Then he hugged Su Yaoyun, buried his head in the crook of her neck, and spoke in a muffled voice.

　　"Mr. Yan originally wanted to ask us to go to Province Y after processing the silage."

　　Su Yaoyun asked in confusion: "Huh? Going to Province Y?"

　　"Villagers in Province Y discovered wild soybeans there. The local environment is very harsh, but the soybeans are growing amazingly, so we want to go and take a look."

　　Soybeans are grown in many parts of China, but the soybeans often face drought, viruses and yield problems.

　　Mr. Yan also thought that the discovery of wild soybeans might be a good opportunity for them to improve soybean varieties.

　　"But Yaoyun, now that you have a child, just stay in Province G with peace of mind."

　　Speaking of this, Song Zhen's heart was filled with reluctance.

　　This time he was going to Y Province and his return date was uncertain, so he wanted to stay with Yaoyun. But now that his wife was pregnant, they could no longer go together.

　　Su Yaoyun's eyes widened instantly and he said excitedly: "I want to go too!"

　　How could she not go? She would go with him no matter what.

　　She didn't expect that Mr. Yan had already thought of using wild soybeans to improve soybean cultivation.

　　At the same time, I was confused. Since I had the idea so early, how come the United States got there first?
