Chapter 323 Old Problem
Hearing that there was candy, little Ren Manman, who had buried her face in her father's arms, finally slowly opened her eyes. Her pair of eager little eyes stared at the bag of candy in her hand.
Seeing this, Li Yiyi smiled and put the bag of candy in her hand.
Ren Manman held the bag of candy in her hand and looked excitedly at her father who was holding her, as if asking her father for his opinion whether she could eat the candy.
Ren Wen smiled and reached out his hand to gently rub her head, then looked at Li Yiyi with gratitude, "Thank you, sister-in-law, I'm sorry for the expense."
Li Yiyi smiled and replied, "Comrade Ren, you are too polite."
"Okay, since this is the candy your auntie gave you, you can eat it if you want. But don't eat too much, or you'll be eaten by bugs." Ren Wen smiled and gently pinched his daughter's cheek and said.
When she heard that she could eat candy, Ren Manman happily asked her father to put her down. As soon as she landed on the ground, the little girl turned around and ran into one of the rooms with the bag of candy on her face with a happy look on her face.
"Please come in. The house is a little small. Don't mind." Ren Wen said embarrassedly.
Following Ren Wen's invitation, the young couple walked into someone's living room. It was called a small living room, but in fact it was just like a small room. It was so narrow that only a table and a few chairs could be placed inside, and it was difficult to squeeze in any more people.
"Please have some water. There is no tea at home, so I can only offer you this." At this time, Ren Wen went to the table and poured two glasses of water.
Jiang Hong, who had just taken a sip of water, was about to ask his sister-in-law where she had gone. Before the words came to his mouth, he heard a woman coughing from the room that the little girl had just entered.
"It's my wife. She's in poor health and has been bedridden. You wait a moment, I'll go in to see her and come out soon." After saying this, Ren Wen walked into the room with an anxious look on his face.
At this time, they were the only couple left in the living room. Jiang Hong then dared to look around the room with a sad expression.
He really didn't expect that their Battalion Commander Ren would have such a hard time after returning.
Normally when they called, Battalion Commander Ren would only tell them good news and not bad news, which made his comrades think that he was living a good life here.
If he hadn't come to see this time, he really wouldn't have believed that his comrades-in-arms were living like this.
Just then, Ren Wen, who had gone in to take care of his wife, finally came out.
Seeing this, Jiang Hong finally couldn't help but ask what he had always wanted to ask, "Captain, weren't you assigned to a factory as a security guard before? Are you still working there now?"
"I haven't worked there for a long time. Two years ago, the factory's profits were not very good, so it closed down and I was laid off. It's hard for a disabled person like me to find a job, so I have been doing odd jobs in the past few years. It's okay if I have a job, but if I don't have a job, it will be difficult for my family to make ends meet." When he said this, the bitter smile on the corners of his mouth became more and more obvious.
Hearing this, Jiang Hong looked at him in confusion and asked, "Captain, you are having such a hard time, why don't you call us and tell us? Every time we call you, you tell us how well you are doing here. You are lying to us."
Battalion Commander Ren listened to his former comrades' complaints and smiled bitterly, "What can I say? Can I tell you that I'm having a hard time? And then, can you help me with money? You can help me temporarily, but not forever. I can find ways to solve my own problems."
Jiang Hong wanted to say something else, but suddenly his arm was pulled by his wife who was sitting next to him.
Li Yiyi shook her head at him, then smiled and said to Ren Wen, "Captain Ren, I just heard that my sister-in-law is sick, right? Did she go to see a doctor?"
Ren Wen felt relieved when he saw that the topic was interrupted. He really didn't want his friend to keep asking him questions about his life.
"I am sick and have seen a doctor, but it's of no use. Every time I take the medicine, I get better for about half a month, but then I get sick again, and it keeps repeating over and over again." Ren Wen said with a sigh.
"I'm a Chinese medicine practitioner. Maybe I can help my sister-in-law." Li Yiyi said.
Ren Wen didn't want to trouble others. "Forget it, I'd better not trouble you, sister-in-law. My wife's illness is an old problem. She has seen so many doctors but none of them can cure her. I'd better not bother with it anymore."
Jiang Hong quickly spoke up and said to him, "Captain, please let my wife take a look at my sister-in-law. My wife's medical skills are very powerful. If there is a miracle doctor in this world, my wife can deserve this title."
When Ren Wen heard what he said, he smiled, neither believing nor disbelieving.
Li Yiyi said at this time, "Captain Ren, please trust me this time and let me take a look at my sister-in-law. Don't underestimate Chinese medicine. It has been developing better and better. Many people are begging to see a Chinese doctor."
Ren Wen pursed his lips, thought for a while, and suddenly, as if he had made an important decision, he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, then, I'll trouble you, sister-in-law, to take a look at my wife's illness. Thank you."
When Li Yiyi heard his promise, the corners of her mouth rose, "You're welcome, then you guys chat first, I'll go in and see my sister-in-law."
Ren Wen stood up and said, "Let me take you in."
Li Yiyi didn't say anything and agreed to his proposal.
Soon, the three of them walked into the room together. The room was a little dim, and due to the patient's long-term illness, there was also a strong smell of disease in the room, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
As soon as Li Yiyi came in and smelled the smell, she frowned at first, then said to Ren Wen who came in with her, "Brother Ren, if the weather is good, you can open the window to get some fresh air. My sister-in-law is a patient. If she stays in the room all the time, lying in bed and smelling these mixed smells, it will be more difficult for her illness to recover."
Ren Wen said with embarrassment, "I know. I tried to open the window before, but my wife's condition became worse after being exposed to the wind for half a day. Later, it really didn't work, so I closed the window."
Li Yiyi pursed her lips and said, "This window must be opened, but my sister-in-law's illness cannot be blown for too long. You can open it for half an hour a day."
Ren Wen heard her instructions, took note of them, and nodded seriously, "Okay, I understand. I'll try it tomorrow."
While they were talking, the woman lying on the bed heard someone coming into the room, and soon she heard her husband talking to a lesbian.
