Half an hour later, the nurse brought over a bowl of herbs.

Gu Yunyang quickly administered the remaining antivenom serum into his comrade's body, then removed the needle and said, "You can take the medicine now. After that, take this medicine for three more days, two doses a day, and that should be enough."

Gu Yunyang stood aside watching the nurse feed the soldier his medicine, then took the prescription out of his shoulder bag and handed it to Zuo Qiulin.

Zuo Qiulin was a little embarrassed, but he still accepted it: "Don't worry, I will definitely get you the best possible deal. I..."

Gu Yunyang smiled and interrupted Zuo Qiulin, "It's alright. The country comes first, then the family. I also saw this recipe in an ancient book. But if Brother Zuo really feels bad about it, how about getting me a bicycle ticket?"

ah?

This was a bit abrupt, but Zuo Qiulin knew that Gu Yunyang didn't want him to feel too bad.

A bicycle ticket cost a comrade's life.

They even gave me two prescriptions; by any measure, I got a great deal.

"good."

I am deeply grateful and cannot express my thanks.

Zuo Qiulin agreed and laughed heartily, though there was still a hint of embarrassment in his smile.

He made a decision: once he returned, he would do everything in his power, even negotiating with his family, to secure the greatest possible benefit.

Gu Yunyang thought for a moment and realized that he couldn't leave yet.

Although my comrade's condition has stabilized, it will still take some time.

For a moment, the two fell silent.

Over there, Gu Hanbin got up early in the morning, waiting to go to town.

But after waiting and waiting, no one showed up.

Impatient, he quickly went to find Gu Hanping.

Gu Hanping was also a little puzzled: "Then let's go to the educated youth settlement..."

Before she could finish speaking, Han Xue's voice came from outside.

After the two came out, Han Xue told them what had happened.

Upon hearing that it was Zuo Qiulin, and that he was from the military, Gu Hanping had no choice but to say to Gu Hanbin, "You go to work today. There's no other way; this is an unexpected situation."

Gu Hanbin understood, but he was still somewhat disappointed.

After Han Xue left, Gu Hanping comforted her, "Don't worry. I've heard of Zuo Qiulin before; he came here once. He's from the military. Yunyang has connections with him; our family might need them in the future."

From the military?

Yes, there are children at home.

If you don't do well in your studies in the future, you can always join the army.

Gu Hanping thought of his second son.

As for the third child, isn't he supposed to be studying?

Gu Hanbin also thought of his eldest son, although he was still young.

But children grow up quickly, and they'll need it in a few years.

At that time, people felt that joining the army was a good way out.

They persuaded Gu Hanbin to go to work first.

I didn't need to ask for leave today, since I was originally going to.

When Gu Hanping came out, he ran into Fan Zhijian and his daughter.

"Zhijian?"

Gu Hanping greeted him, expecting the other person to simply nod and then pass by.

Unexpectedly, Fan Zhijian called out to Gu Hanping instead.

"Zhijian, just say what's on your mind." Gu Hanping noticed the other's hesitation and laughed heartily.

Fan Zhijian nodded: "Then I'll get straight to the point. I have some questions for you. Does Gu Yunyang live in our brigade?"
