Chapter 94: Retired due to injury, what kind of family is he?
"Chinese medicine also has a set of techniques for rubbing medicinal wine. Didn't I send a package to you and your brother? Did you see it?"
"It contains a medicinal wine that can relax muscles and loosen joints. If you have finished training or come back from a mission, you can apply it. Your body will feel much more relaxed and comfortable."
Lu Xingchen's mind, which had finally calmed down, was shattered with a "click".
"Right away."
The girl called him Brother Chen so smoothly, it seemed like she didn't treat him as an outsider.
All he wanted now was to hide her.
Lu Xingchen sat down, with his elbows bent and resting on his knees, like a docile big dog, waiting for his owner's caress.
Jiang Zhizhi lived up to Lu Xingchen's expectations. He first poured the medicinal wine on the palm of his hand, and then rubbed it on Lu Xingchen's back with appropriate force.
"How is it?"
"Very comfortable!" Lu Xingchen was particularly honest this time, and he clenched his hands into fists in disbelief.
The back has started to heat up.
Is he dreaming?
So, Zhizhi was willing to touch him? !
Oh my god, I’m so happy!
So happy!
Besides, it’s not shameful to admit that you like someone in front of a little girl.
Jiang Zhizhi pinched his shoulder in amusement and said unhappily, "I'm asking you to learn! Go back and wipe it for my brother as well."
Lu Xingchen laughed so hard that his chest shook: "Okay! I'll study hard, as long as Jiang Wang doesn't despise me!"
"Zhizhi, just teach me a few more times, I'm sure I can learn it."
Brother, I'm sorry this time!
I'm stupid, I need to learn it more times.
......
The next morning.
Lu Xingchen and Xu Chaoping went for morning jogging training without fail.
Ling Xiaohui got up early to prepare breakfast for everyone. Xiaobao sat obediently on a bench not far away, having a lot of fun by himself.
Jiang Yuanyang was puzzled: "Where is Zhizhi?"
Jiang Yuanshan replied: "She is still sleeping. Don't go and wake her up. Let her sleep a little longer."
Jiang Yuanfeng joked, "Hahaha, you little lazy pig, but yesterday the three of us were exhausted, not to mention that my sister was always treating the villagers. Being a doctor is so busy, it's not easy!"
Jiang Yuanyang's chest suddenly collapsed. "Since my sister needs so many herbs, big brother, second brother, let's go to the mountain for a walk later."
"See if I can help my sister find the Chinese medicinal herbs she wants."
Jiang Yuanshan nodded: "This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are definitely no fewer good things in the deep mountains and old forests than in our place."
"That's fine with me. Ask Lu Xingchen to come over. Why not have an extra laborer?"
The three brothers never expected that someone would be so bold as to sneak out to find their sister while they were asleep!!
After they finished breakfast, they couldn't wait to call Lu Xingchen to go up the mountain.
They had seen most of the medicinal herbs my sister needed, so they had some experience.
Xu Chaoping was happy to take them up the mountain, so all five men took their families and baskets and headed up the mountain excitedly.
Dabao happily carried a small basket on his back and followed us to the mountain to collect pig grass.
When Jiang Zhizhi woke up, it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.
She jumped up, feeling a little annoyed.
I really can’t be a night owl anymore and hide in my own space to read medical books and draw comics. It will only delay things in the morning!
After a quick wash, I looked in the mirror, raised my hand and randomly smoothed my hair, and found that the little silly hair on my head could not be suppressed no matter what!
But his stomach was growling. Between having a little silly hair and being hungry, Jiang Zhizhi chose the latter without hesitation.
When Xiaobao, who was playing in the yard, saw Jiang Zhizhi, his eyes sparkled and he wanted to get closer but didn't dare to go forward.
Jiang Zhizhi probably guessed what the little girl was thinking, and said with a smile: "Good morning, little treasure!"
Xiao Bao smiled sweetly and softly: "Good morning, Sister Zhizhi."
After hearing the noise, Ling Xiaohui came out, wiped her hands on her coat, and said with a smile, "Zhizhi, wake up. Come and have breakfast. It's all warmed up in the pot."
Ling Xiaohui steamed cornmeal buns for everyone this morning and boiled five eggs, all for Jiang Zhizhi and the others. |
Jiang Zhizhi thanked him politely, took the cornmeal steamed bun and boiled egg, and glanced at the surroundings.
It is clear in my heart that the Xu family is not going to have a good time.
Ling Xiaohui brought a plate of vegetables from the kitchen, sat on a small stool in the yard, and chatted with Jiang Zhizhi while picking vegetables.
Since Lu Xingchen came to their house, her husband has been much happier and more energetic.
Ling Xiaohui felt happy and sad at the same time, and she wished that Lu Xingchen and the others could stay at home for a while longer.
Xiaobao suddenly sensed his mother's emotions, and he lay gently on her back, saying in a baby voice, "When Daddy is happy, Mommy is happy. When Mommy and Daddy are happy, Xiaobao is happy too, and so is my brother."
Ling Xiaohui's heart softened instantly, and she rubbed her daughter's face affectionately, "Go play, Mommy is fine."
Xiaobao smiled sweetly and ran to the door to play in the mud.
Ling Xiaohui sighed softly. Perhaps it was because Jiang Zhizhi made such a good impression that she opened her heart unconsciously.
"Zhizhi, I am really grateful that you came to visit my husband."
"Especially since our home hasn't been so lively for a long time. I saw Chao Ping, Da Bao and Xiao Bao all smiling more. I couldn't help but feel so happy."
"At that time, Chao Ping was still serving in the army. He would send wages back to me and my child every month. However, the Xu family had not yet split up, and all the wages he sent back were held by Chao Ping's mother. Needless to say, my child basically didn't get to spend any of the money."
Until one day, Xu Chaoping was sent back by his comrades, and brought back two pieces of bad news.
The first one is retirement due to injury.
The second is that this leg probably won’t heal, and I’ll walk with a limp from now on.
The comrades gave all the wages and subsidies they received to Ling Xiaohui.
At the same time, they gave her all the money they had.
Ling Xiaohui tried to hold back her tears but couldn't help sobbing.
The iron-clad man she loved took off his military uniform from that day on.
He lay in bed recovering, but became increasingly depressed.
Perhaps only those who have served in the military can understand this kind of unwillingness.
It's obvious that he loves his motherland so much, and he loves the military uniform he wears so much.
He was so eager to protect his country, but why did God give him such a heavy blow?
There is no wall that is impenetrable in Xujia Village. As soon as Xu Chaoping came back, the whole Xujia Village knew about it.
When Xu Chaoping's mother heard that her second son was lame? Was he sent back by the army? How could this be tolerated?
Who will support this family in the future?
The sister-in-law who loves to take advantage of others immediately distanced herself from the matter, "What a bad luck! I haven't even gotten married yet, how can my second brother lose his salary? Really! Whoever wants to interfere can interfere, but you can't touch my dowry!"
The sister-in-law who always came back to beg for money started to complain.
"The second child's leg is already lame, why are you still thinking about how to treat it? Isn't this a waste of money? Besides, our family has not split up, and life is already tight. Now we have to pay for the second child's medical expenses? If the second child's family does not rely on the Xu family, can she raise two children?"
"The life and death of the second brother's family depends on the Xu family, so how can we deal with this money? Mom, don't be confused. It's better to spend more time on your grandchildren than to throw the money into this bottomless pit."
