Looking at the skincare products, clothes, and stationery that Ruan Ruan bought for her and Xiaoming, Teacher Shen felt happy on one hand, but on the other hand, she felt that Ruan Ruan had wasted money. As long as she put her heart into it, that was enough.

"Auntie, don't worry, I bought some for my mom and my second aunt, and they all said it works well. Auntie, you should try it too and see if it's as good as my mom and the others say!"

"Okay, I'll try it tonight."

I can't let my niece's kind intentions go to waste.

"Xiaoming, come quick, look, your dad's back. It's so late, why didn't he come home earlier? The whole family is waiting for him to eat."

While packing her things, Teacher Shen asked Xiaoming to go and see why Commander Gu hadn't returned yet.

"Hey, where's your sister-in-law? Why are you the only one here?" After dealing with Teacher Shen, she saw Gu Jinghe sitting alone on the sofa.

"My husband, Ms. Jiang, is on duty today. I should have gone to the hospital to check on her when I got back. Sigh, I'll be spending the night alone. So sad."

Seeing Huo Haocheng and Ruan Ruan always together, and with someone waiting for Huo Haocheng every time he comes home, makes me so envious.

Sigh, what can you do when Teacher Jiang has such a passion for healing and saving lives!

"Oh, why didn't you go see your Dr. Jiang this afternoon?" Hearing his words, Ruan Ruan felt that he wasn't that sad. If he really missed someone that much, he would definitely go to see her no matter how far away she was, instead of being here lamenting and acting like he was about to die. Who was he putting on this act for?

"I wanted to go, but Dr. Jiang was very understanding. She said I had just gotten back and should rest at home instead of running back and forth to see her. She said she'd be back tomorrow anyway, and if I went, I might disturb her work. ε=(′ο｀*))) Sigh"

Just thinking about Dr. Jiang's tone on the phone made him feel like he was so ashamed and disliked that he couldn't face anyone at that moment.

"Oh, then you really are a stumbling block on your sister-in-law's work path. It's right not to let you go." It's understandable. During this period, the weather has been changing a lot, and many people must be sick. Their hospital must be quite busy. If you go at this time, Dr. Jiang will have to take time out to see him, which is indeed quite a bother.

"What do you say?!" He was already quite upset, and he only wanted someone to comfort him, but in the afternoon, his mother, and now his sister, everyone who tried to comfort him told him not to bother his wife at work.

"Of course not! Your sister-in-law is a doctor who saves lives. You know, in a doctor's eyes, time is life. So, you can't waste her time when she's working."

"...Okay, you're right."

Well, he knew they were right. He couldn't be unreasonable; he had to be understanding, just like she understood him when he was on a mission.

The brother and sister were both in poor spirits. One was leaning on the sofa, and the other was leaning on Huo Haocheng's chest, bickering. Teacher Shen checked the time and felt it was about time, so she started setting out the meal. Huo Haocheng obediently acted as a human cushion, and no one interrupted the two of them.

A short while later, Xiaoming returned with Commander Gu.

During the meal, Commander Gu told them that everyone in their unit had been awarded a second-class merit, and that their unit had now officially become independent. After the New Year, they would select personnel from various military regions to expand their ranks.

The awarding ceremony will be held on Chinese New Year's Day, which is perfect, as the military region will arrange for the cultural troupe to perform together, making it a lively occasion.
