Song Yan never thought she would experience a day of transmigrating into a book. Well, if she transmigrated, she transmigrated! The 1970s weren't that scary.
However, she didn't expec...
Song Yan deliberately ventured deeper into the area to avoid being seen doing her little tricks. She moved five or six bamboo stalks in a row, thinking that she would soon have a bamboo grove.
Wei Aiguo returned early today and saw that Song Yan and Xiang Zhoushan were both smiling, so he knew that Bai Shuang's leg injury was improving.
Xiang Zhoushan escorted Song Yan back and then took their soldiers back with him. As Xiang Zhoushan left, he stuffed a bunch of tickets into Song Yan's hand. Afraid Song Yan wouldn't accept them, they hurriedly ran off.
The smell of Chinese medicine has been filling Wei Aiguo's hospital room these past few days, and he has Chinese medicine applied to his legs as well. His wife is with him, and she clearly understands traditional Chinese medicine.
Director Qiao visits Wei Aiguo's ward every day, and each time he returns, he says that Wei Aiguo's recovery is remarkable.
Later, Director Qiao couldn't help but say that it was really the effect of traditional Chinese medicine.
Today, Wei Aiguo's wife, Comrade Song Yan, is not here; a young soldier is taking care of him.
Fang Jinghua wanted to find Comrade Song Yan and asked her colleagues to check on him several times, but Song Yan was never in the ward. A nurse inquired and learned that Song Yan had gone to a military dog training camp.
Fang Jinghua waited for several hours, and finally left because she was getting impatient.
The nurse on duty was relieved that Fang Jinghua had just left, and she and Song Yan had perfectly missed each other. The nurse on duty certainly didn't want them to fight on her shift.
With Bai Shuang's condition clearly improving, Song Yan began to plan his next steps. He was intimately familiar with the shape and position of the human skeleton, but not with dogs. Therefore, an X-ray procedure would be necessary.
With Bai Shuang's leg bone shattered like that, complete repositioning is impossible. However, it's possible to reposition the larger bone pieces and immobilize them with a splint. Combined with Song Yan's medication, and based on Song Yan's assessment, amputation won't be necessary. This lower leg can at least be saved and can even provide some assistance in walking.
Wei Aiguo held Song Yan's hand. "Thank you!" His eyes reddened. "Actually, I've been thinking that if I had acted faster, or killed the other person first, Bai Shuang wouldn't have been so badly injured! I've been regretting it ever since!"
They were fighting for their lives, they were definitely giving it their all. Song Yan guessed that the other side must have known they were outmatched, which is why they wanted to take each other down with them. It wasn't a matter of being a little faster.
Is Wei Aiguo constantly blaming himself?
"You were all fulfilling your missions responsibly. Your fallen comrade was, you were, and Bai Shuang was too." Song Yan shook hands with Wei Aiguo.
Wei Aiguo nodded.
Song Yan: "I'm doing my best to treat Bai Shuang. If I can't help Bai Shuang, am I being irresponsible? Answer me!"
Wei Aiguo patted Song Yan on the shoulder: "No need to persuade me, I understand."
While Wei Aiguo's home was filled with warmth and affection, the situation at Deputy Division Commander Fang's home was far less pleasant.
Deputy Division Commander Fang is quite busy every day, and it's rare for him to come home today; he even came back early. Fang Jinghua wasn't home when he got there.
Deputy Division Commander Fang's wife, Shen Hongxiang, is a pharmacist at the military hospital's pharmacy. She is off work today and is at home.
Comrade Lao Fang rarely comes home at noon, so his mother-in-law, Mrs. Shen, quickly prepared a few more dishes. Comrade Lao Fang then played a few games of chess with his father-in-law, who was also his former superior.
Old Fang had been playing chess for ages, but hadn't seen his daughter. "Hongxiang, where's the eldest?"
The mother-in-law chimed in, "This child has been wronged and is feeling restless at home. I'll let her go out for a walk."
Old Fang was speechless. Her eldest daughter had been wronged? Her suspension was deserved. But her mother-in-law protected her eldest daughter more than she protected her own eyes. Old Fang dared not say a word.
What did the mother-in-law mean by saying that directly? She was afraid he would settle scores with the eldest son. Seeing that her son-in-law was sensible enough, she shut up.
Old Fang was halfway through his chess game when Fang Jinghua returned. She collapsed onto the sofa as soon as she entered the room.
"You're a grown woman now, and you have no manners at all. Instead of staying home after being suspended from your post, where have you been?" Comrade Lao Fang scolded.
"Jinghua is suspended from her job, not in jail. Is she not allowed to go out?" Old Mrs. Shen was the first to express her displeasure.
Fang Jinghua wasn't afraid of her father at all. No matter how powerful her father was, that was outside. Try being powerful at home!
Fang Jinghua watched her grandfather play chess nonchalantly, asking, "Did my dad lose or not?"
The old man smelled disinfectant on his daughter. "Why do you smell of disinfectant? Did you go to the hospital?"
Fang Jinghua didn't want to admit it, but her father smelled the disinfectant. She stepped back, letting her grandfather block her way.
"So that's what you did?" Old Fang's temper flared up immediately. "Who told you to go to the hospital? Don't you know you've been suspended?" Old Fang's voice suddenly rose an octave.
"What are you shouting for? The hospital has suspended Jinghua from her job, but does that mean she's not allowed to enter the hospital?" said Old Mrs. Shen.
“Mom, Jinghua is being unreasonable. I’m afraid she’ll go after them again. They haven’t pursued the matter further, but if she doesn’t learn her lesson, that’s not right!” Old Fang tried his best to speak to his mother-in-law in a calm tone.
"I didn't! What right does he have to call me ugly? He's a complete scoundrel! Isn't he slandering me? Why is he unpunished?" Fang Jinghua now realized that she had initially considered Wei Aiguo a hero, but in reality…
Grandma Shen was unhappy that he dared to call her beloved an ugly monster. "Jinghua wasn't wrong either. Why should he talk about our Jinghua like that? I'm already being lenient by not causing him any trouble."
And you even expect Jinghua to avoid him. Your way of handling things isn't fair at all!
"Alright! Jinghua was wrong about this!" The old commander's words silenced Grandma Shen. But her expression still betrayed her dissatisfaction. It was as if she meant, "Our Jinghua is perfectly fine."
Shen Hongxiang was also troubled. Her mother had given birth to four sons before having her, and her mother had always favored her. Her mother only liked girls. After her older brother got married, her mother hoped that one of her daughters-in-law would give her a granddaughter. As a result, one grandson after another was born. It wasn't until she gave birth to Jinghua that her mother finally held a girl from her grandchildren's generation.
