Song Yufeng was bored by herself when she heard Yu Yao's voice. She turned around in surprise and said, "I'm so glad you came to see me. Please have a seat!"

Lu Ze brought out stools for Yu Yao and Su Mei.

"How are you feeling? You look a little thinner." Su Meihua noticed that her hospital gown was a bit loose.

Song Yufeng smiled shyly, "It's nothing, I just lost too much blood before and haven't recovered yet. I haven't properly thanked Sister Yuyao and Commander Lu for what happened last time. If you hadn't brought me to the hospital, I might not have been able to save the baby."

The thought of this made Song Yufeng unable to let go of her feelings.

She fell in the yard, and the Niu family, who were clearly relatives, ignored her cries for help. When Lao Wu asked about it later, she said she was fast asleep and didn't hear it.

They were fast asleep, so how could Wu Shufen not have heard? She just didn't want to save her.

Seeing that she still didn't know what the Wu siblings had done, Su Meihua said, "We went hunting in the mountains today and encountered wolves. Your sister-in-law..."

Yu Yao cleared her throat, coughed twice, and changed the subject, "Sister-in-law Yu Feng, you're not feeling well, so don't worry about it these next few days and just rest. Red dates are good for replenishing blood, I brought you a small bag. Eat some every day, it will help you recover."

"Thank you, Yu Yao." Song Yufeng turned to look at Su Meihua, "What did Wu Shufen do this time?"

Su Meihua glanced at Yu Yao, who shook her head and smiled, saying, "It's nothing, she just doesn't recognize wild vegetables and is digging them up randomly. It's not a big deal. Did the doctor say when you can be discharged?"

Song Yufeng said, "My health has never been very good. The doctor said I should stay in the hospital for observation for a while longer, and I can be discharged after confirming that the baby is okay. It will probably take more than half a month."

The group chatted in the ward for a while, and then planned to leave after Battalion Commander Wu returned.

As soon as Yu Yao and the others came down, they heard Battalion Commander Wu's voice behind them.

Woodward walked up to Yu Yao, feeling extremely guilty. "Comrade Yu, thank you for coming to see Yu Feng."

Seeing that he seemed hesitant to speak, Yu Yao asked, "Is there something you want to say to us, Battalion Commander Wu?"

Woodford thought of his wife, who was still a novice in the military, lying in her hospital bed, and said with difficulty, "Yu Feng has very few friends in the compound. You are the best friends she has made in the military compound. If possible, could you please continue to associate with Yu Feng as before?"

Woodford's eyes held a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

Yu Yao and Su Meihua looked at each other and said with a smile, "Battalion Commander Wu, you don't need to worry. Wu Shufen is Wu Shufen, and Sister-in-law Yu Feng is Sister-in-law Yu Feng. They are two different things. This matter will not affect our relationship with Sister-in-law Yu Feng."

"Really?" Woodford's eyes reddened slightly.

Yu Yao nodded.

Su Meihua said, "Battalion Commander Wu, Yu Feng is such a nice person, we really like being friends with her."

With tears in his eyes, Woodford could only keep saying thank you and sorry.

As the nurse came out of the hospital, she said, "Battalion Commander Wu, could you please come here for a moment?"

Yu Yao smiled and said, "Battalion Commander Wu, you go ahead and do your work. We'll go back on our own."

Battalion Commander Wu smiled and said, "Alright, I'll head over there first."

Su Meihua sighed as she watched Battalion Commander Wu, with his bandages still on, running around for the Wu family's affairs: "With parents and siblings like that, Battalion Commander Wu and Yu Feng are truly unfortunate."

"I hope that after the army bans them from visiting their families, Battalion Commander Wu and Sister-in-law Yu Feng can have a better life." Yu Yao was very fortunate to have met such reasonable parents-in-law as Grandpa Lu and his wife, and a husband like Lu Ze who was willing to deal with problems and not run away from them.

It is said that marriage is like a second reincarnation.

If you encounter in-laws who are unreasonable and like to interfere in their son and daughter-in-law's lives, coupled with a husband who likes to smooth things over, such a marriage can truly be suffocating.

Compared to others, Battalion Commander Wu and Sister-in-law Yu Feng were already considered lucky to be able to live with the army on their own.

On the way back, we ran into the repair shop staff. "Commander Lu, the bicycle you brought over last time has been repaired. You can pick it up now."

"Thank you, comrade, we'll be there in a bit."

The two went home first to put their things away. Yu Yao then took a basket of wild vegetables she had picked that day and a jar of crab sauce before leaving the compound to go to the repair shop.

Repair shops in those days were also collectively owned, and repairmen were considered employees of the repair shops and received a fixed salary.

The repair shop is located near the shipyard's residential compound. There are several factories nearby, and almost every family of the employees owns a bicycle, making the repair shop very lively.

As soon as Yu Yao and Lu Ze entered the repair shop, they saw the repaired bicycle parked in the yard.

The repairman, Mr. He, returned the bicycle to them, adding, "It's a good bike, all the parts are top-notch. I've fixed the handlebars and replaced the front wheel. Please take good care of it from now on."

"Thank you, Master. We will take good care of it."

Master He didn't say much: "Commander Lu, go to the counter to pay. Miss, you try it on first and see if there's anything else that needs adjusting."

"Okay, I'll try riding it right away."

Yu Yao rode her bicycle around for a while and returned to the repair shop. "Master He, why does this bike feel even more comfortable to ride after the repair?"

Master He smiled and said, "As long as it's comfortable, that's what matters. It was worth it for Commander Lu to keep an eye on me, adjusting it according to your height, weight, and usage habits. If this modified bicycle isn't comfortable, my reputation as Old He would be in jeopardy."

After Lu Ze finished receiving the money and came out, Yu Yao stared at his face and looked him up and down.

Lu Ze touched his face. "Is there something on my face?"
