บท 687: Chapter 688: First Torment These Two_1

As soon as An Jing returned to the Agricultural Institute, she sought out Li Jifan.

Li Jifan had not expected An Jing to bring her husband again, and he was slightly taken aback upon seeing Xiao Changyi.

An Jing ignored what others thought of her and her husband, and she politely bowed to Li Jifan, saying, "Official Li, I heard that you are in charge of the fruit and vegetable section of the experimental fields. I would like to borrow two patches of land there to deal with pest and disease issues, and I hope you can grant this request."

Li Jifan asked, "Which two patches?"

"Pumpkin and cucumber."

Li Jifan's cultured face showed a puzzled look, "The cucumbers have been heavily infested with insects in recent years, and they always wilt and die. I understand why you'd consider this, but pumpkins don't suffer from insects as much. You might as well think about eggplants—last year, they also had a lot of insect damage, and who knows, it might happen again this year."
