Chapter 99 There Are Many Good Men
Clearly, she had only been here for less than half a year, and clearly, she had only been away from the village for a month, but now, looking at the villagers busy in the fields and the children playing in the village, she suddenly felt like she was back home.
In the field, Jiang's mother, who was helping to weed, was suddenly bumped by a villager next to her.
"Guihua, look at the person in front of you. Is that your third daughter-in-law?" the person who bumped into her kindly reminded her.
When Jiang's mother heard this, she immediately raised her head and looked forward. The next second, a smile appeared on her serious face. "It's my daughter-in-law. She did come back today."
Jiang's mother really wanted to drop the hoe in her hand and run over, but unfortunately she was at work and the family still needed her work points, so she had to resist the urge.
The ox cart quickly entered the village and returned to Lao Jiang's house.
After riding in the ox cart all the way, Li Yiyi felt that her butt was about to be broken.
So as soon as she got off the ox cart, she jumped on the ground twice before pushing open the door of Lao Jiang's house.
"Third sister-in-law, where should we put these two big packages?" Behind her, the eldest and second brothers Jiang asked with some difficulty, holding the big packages in their hands.
"Just put it in the yard. It's filled with things you bought for your family." Li Yiyi looked around the yard and couldn't find her child. Then she heard Brother Jiang's call and stepped forward to give instructions.
After the two brothers put the things away as she said, they were both concerned about the work in the fields, so they didn't stay at home for long. The two brothers went to the fields to help, one after the other.
Li Yiyi, who stayed at home, started to open the two packages and divide the things.
Having been away from home for so long, she really wants to go to the village clinic to check on the situation.
So she found the gifts for her third uncle in one of the packages, took them out of Lao Jiang's house, and immediately walked towards the village clinic.
While walking on the road, she would occasionally meet one or two children from the village, all of whom were very sweet-talkers. Li Yiyi stopped and gave them candies one by one.
After walking and stopping for about ten minutes, we finally arrived at the village clinic.
Because it is afternoon now, there are not many patients at the village clinic.
When she came in, she saw her third uncle dozing off on the table.
Li Yiyi slowed down her pace and walked up to the old man, and said in a pinched voice, "Doctor, I need to see a doctor."
When the dozing uncle heard someone calling, he immediately opened his eyes and raised his head. His dull eyes seemed to brighten immediately.
"So it's you, girl, who's back. When did you come back?" Third Uncle asked with a kind smile.
"I just came back. Look how good I am to you. I came to see you right after I got back." She smiled and handed the gift to him.
When Sanpi Gong heard her words, a happy smile appeared on his old face. At the same time, his eyes also saw the gift she brought, "What is this?"
"This is for you. Otherwise you would say I am heartless and that I didn't even bring you a gift when I went out." She smiled and took out a pair of cotton shoes from the bag.
"Try it on and see if it fits your feet?" she said as she held the cotton shoes to his feet.
When the Third Uncle saw the new pair of cotton shoes at her feet, his expression froze for a moment. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He looked at her in surprise and asked, "Did you buy this for me?"
"Yes, you have been wearing this pair of shoes for many years. It's time to change them. I happened to see that the cotton shoes there were quite cheap, so I bought a pair for you older people. This pair is yours." She replied with a smile.
After hearing this, Third Uncle felt warm in his heart and bent down to pick it up and look at it.
"Don't keep looking at it. Try it and see if it fits your feet." Li Yiyi spoke up when she saw that he was holding it but not trying it.
Third Uncle smiled and said, "No need to try, they will definitely fit. I'll put these shoes aside for now, and I'll wear them when my current pair of shoes can no longer fit."
Seeing this, Li Yiyi stopped persuading him to try, but instead glanced at the village clinic and asked about the situation when she was away.
"You don't have to worry about this. It's the same here all year round. Only when the weather is cold, there will be more patients. But how is Jiang Hong doing?" he asked.
Li Yiyi smiled and replied, "He is almost fully recovered now. If he wasn't, would I be able to come back?"
"When will you come to work?" asked the third uncle again.
As soon as he said this, the smile on Li Yiyi's face suddenly disappeared by half.
When Third Uncle, who was staring at her, saw the change in her face, his calm eyes immediately turned serious. He looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?" Didn’t they say that Jiang Hong is fine? ”
Li Yiyi thought for a moment and replied, "He is sure that everything is fine, but I promised him that I would take my two children with me to join the army."
Uncle San was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "You are indeed going to join the army. It is not good for you two to live apart like this. It is a pity."
"I just can't bear to leave the big guys here." She also knew that it was not good for the couple to be separated like this, but she just couldn't bear to leave the people here.
"What's there to be reluctant about? Everyone has to give up something when they grow up." Third Uncle quickly understood and advised her.
"What about you?" she asked a little worriedly.
Uncle San smiled and said, "When you didn't come, this village clinic was always open like this. Don't worry, it's okay."
"By the way, during the time you were away, my senior brother has been asking about you. I think he has something to tell you. Now that you are back, see if you have time and go to find him secretly." At this time, Third Uncle thought of his senior brother who had looked for him several times.
Li Yiyi nodded, "I will go, then you go ahead and do your work, I'm going home first, I just came back and there are still a lot of things that I haven't packed yet."
"Okay, go back. But you still have to come to work during the days you are not away. Let me see if you have been lazy while you are not at home." When she was about to go out, her third uncle called out to her from inside.
Li Yiyi, who had walked to the door, heard this sentence coming from behind her. The corners of her mouth curved up, and she responded without turning her head, "I know. I'll come to work tomorrow."
Coming out of the village clinic, Li Yiyi had a smile on her face.
It was not until she was halfway through her journey and met someone that the smile on her face faded.
"Li Yiyi, long time no see. I have good news to tell you. I'm getting married. Don't worry, your Jiang Hong is not the only best man in the world. There are many good men." Yang Tao said proudly.
