Chapter 490: Chapter 490 Sending Black Bean and Stepping Snow Back to the Village

Gao Jiefang arranged for someone to send the Zhao Family’s old master back home and told him to rest for the next few days. They would find people to help with the work in his fields so that he could focus on recuperating.

After Luo Qiao finished speaking with Auntie Gao, Huo Yuhao actually started chatting with the village cadres.

When Luo Qiao joined them, she heard that they were discussing the construction of a chicken farm, which she had previously mentioned to the secretary. They had said that they needed to discuss it, but it seemed that today Huo Yuhao had given them reassurance.

Village Chief Li Suozhu said, "This is a good thing. As long as you can guarantee the sales channel, then we can go ahead with confidence."

Huo Yuhao laughed and said, "If you’re not at ease, we can sign a supply and sales agreement first."

Thinking about future development, Luo Qiao casually brought up the environment in conversation with the village cadres and talked about prospective development, prompting them to think deeply.

The chicken farm needed to be established, but it couldn’t be too close to the village. After deliberation, they chose a depression behind the mountain. Although it was a bit far from the village, the road was accessible, and the geography meant that any foul odor wouldn’t drift back to the village. That settled the matter.

Two days later, Lu Yichen drove the borrowed jeep to take Luo Qiao back to the village. The main reason was to bring back Black Bean and Stepping Snow—these two fellows had grown too big to take the bus.

Originally, Luo Qiao intended to take Huo Yuhao’s three-wheeler back, but Lu Yichen said he happened to have something to do back in the village, so she rode back with him instead.

The jeep didn’t enter the village. Luo Qiao got off halfway and walked into the village with Black Bean and Stepping Snow. Seeing Luo Qiao return with two such imposing and majestic dogs, the villagers came over to watch the lively scene.

Someone said, "Luo Qiao, you’ve raised these dogs well. Where did they come from?"

Luo Qiao laughed and replied, "I adopted them from somewhere else to keep watch over the orchard. These dogs are pretty powerful, and they’ve been trained, too."

Everyone laughed, and someone said, "Those dogs jump almost as high as a person. If anyone has the nerve to enter your orchard, they’d probably be scared to death."

Luo Qiao just happened to see Village Chief Li Suozhu coming over, so she said, "Uncle Chief, could you help me announce over the loudspeaker later that there are dogs in the orchard, and no one is to enter privately. If someone ignores this and gets hurt, they’ll be responsible for the consequences."

Li Suozhu laughed and said, "Okay, I’ll announce it a few times for you later, to prevent any mischievous trouble."

She took the dogs to the orchard and, while no one else was there, placed some food in the house that had previously been repaired. She took Black Bean and Stepping Snow around the orchard and let the few workers who were going to work there get accustomed to their scent.

She also allowed Auntie Gao to spend some time with Black Bean and Stepping Snow and said, "Auntie Gao, I’ll have to trouble you to prepare food for the two dogs in the future. I’ll pay you an extra two yuan per month, and don’t refuse. These dogs can really eat."

At first, Auntie Gao was somewhat afraid of the two dogs, given their size, but then Luo Qiao made them lie down, welcome her, and give paw—all of which they did obediently. Finally, she had the dogs shake hands with her, which made her slowly lose her fear.

It wasn’t long before Lu Yichen showed up, "Have you taken care of everything?"

Luo Qiao replied, "I’ll take care of the house at the brigade office in a moment."

Auntie Gao turned around and saw Lu Yichen, smiling as she said, "Yichen, when did you find the time to come back?"

Lu Yichen nodded, "I’m dealing with some affairs at the commune and thought I’d also check in on the village."

Black Bean and Stepping Snow rushed toward Lu Yichen when they saw him, startling Auntie Gao. But seeing Lu Yichen playing around with them put her at ease, although it also made her realize something.

Without any concern for the dogs anymore, she looked closer, "Yichen, are your legs better now?"

Lu Yichen responded to Auntie Gao’s question, "Yes, they’re better now."

Auntie Gao slapped her thigh, "That’s fantastic. Look at how well you are now. Oh my, I don’t know which family’s lucky girl will marry you—tall and handsome, with a good job to boot."

Hearing Auntie Gao’s words, Lu Yichen burst out laughing and glanced at Luo Qiao, thinking that it was indeed the young lady standing right behind her.
