Chapter 87 Such a terrible accent!
Zhao Yue was bragging on the side, while Shen Yuzhu ate her meal and occasionally made some exclamatory interjections. Zhou Congsheng watched from the side, looking utterly disgusted.
The wild boar meat was alright, but the main thing was that it tasted like something Qiao Wangshu would make.
"Didn't you hunt a lot of wild game? Where is it?"
"At Sister Yuming's house, Zeng Hu is handling it. Sister-in-law, don't worry, I've given Sister Wangshu and Sister Manxiu a wild rabbit and a pheasant. Oh, by the way, I know that you and Wang, the educated youth in the educated youth group, are good. I got a whole piece of pork and half a piece of lard from the brigade leader."
"Okay, thank you, Xiaoyue. You're really amazing. I've never met a braver or more capable girl than you."
Shen Yuzhu's praise was truly sincere, and when she looked at Zhao Yue, her smile was gentle and bright. Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment after being praised like that, and then lowered her head shyly.
"Really, sister-in-law? Hehehe, I'm a little embarrassed."
Looking at her awkward manner, Zhou Congsheng couldn't help but recall the moment when Shen Yuming boiled hot water for Zeng Hu to wash his hands; the expression on her face was exactly the same.
"Do you have anything else to do? Your sister-in-law and I still have something to talk about. Go out and take care of your sister Yuming's child."
"Tch~, this is my sister-in-law's house. She didn't even kick me out, but you're the one who dares to say that. Shameless."
"You..."
Zhao Yue rolled her eyes at him, turned around and, taking advantage of Shen Yuzhu's inattention, gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before running away.
"Hahahaha, I kissed my sister-in-law before you did! Hah, you bastard, you'll never catch up to me in this lifetime, hmph!"
Zhou Congsheng: "......."
Shen Yuzhu: "......."
This girl is way too excited today!!!
Zhou Congsheng walked up to Shen Yuzhu, pulled on his sleeve and vigorously wiped her face, looking extremely disgusted.
"This brat is such a show-off. You sit down, I'll go wash the dishes. It's cold outside, put on your coat when you come out."
"Yeah, I slept all afternoon, it's so stuffy, I'm going out for a walk."
It was already dark, but almost everyone from Xiangyang Production Team was outside, praising Zhao Yue incessantly whenever they saw her.
This girl is already famous. She killed a wild boar with one punch, but she didn't take credit for it. Instead, she distributed the wild boar to the village, and the educated youth assigned to her, Qiao, personally cooked it.
I made a big pot of meat soup.
Some people didn't drink it after receiving it, but when they got home they added a stew of radish, cabbage and tofu, which they could eat for several meals.
A proper meat broth, eating it in one meal is really a waste of food.
Shen Yuzhu didn't really like the food, so she drank some soup and let Zhou Congsheng eat the rest. He was a very frugal person when he wasn't picky.
The two locked the courtyard gate and went out together.
At the educated youth settlement not far away, Xia Zhenzhen glanced at them, turned around, shook her head, and sighed. But she had only taken two steps when she saw that Yu Xiaolin's gaze was also fixed on Shen Yuzhu.
A sharp pain flashed in her eyes, and she lowered her head and quickly left.
Lin Wanwan brought a bowl of hot soup with tofu and cabbage to Yu Xiaolin. When she saw him staring at Shen Yuzhu's back, she was so angry that her chest heaved. She suppressed her anger and walked over with a relatively gentle smile.
Zhou Congsheng held Shen Yuzhu's shoulder with one hand. Neither of them spoke as they walked forward quietly. Suddenly, he frowned and turned his head sharply, meeting Yu Xiaolin's gaze before she could look away.
The latter was so frightened that she hurriedly dodged and bumped into Lin Wanwan, who was bringing her soup. The two of them suddenly screamed from being scalded.
"Huh? What's that sound?"
"I don't know, maybe someone got bitten by a dog?"
Shen Yuzhu pursed her lips, suppressing a laugh. This man's mouth was really sharp. He thought she didn't know, but she had noticed it just now.
The broth had barely been distributed when it started snowing.
After the two arrived at Shen Yuming's house, they glanced at Huo Hongbang, who was still lying down. The doctor said that he was fine now, and after taking medicine and getting an injection, he would be alright once the fever subsided.
Fearing that the fever reducer and anti-inflammatory medicine wouldn't work, Shen Yuzhu went home and took out some other medicine from her space. She told Zeng Hu to check on the situation in four hours, and if the fever didn't subside, to give him another dose.
"It's already dark, and the snow is so heavy, it might not be safe for you to walk. Why don't you stay the night?"
“Okay, Wu Chen has already taken those people to the police station. We’ll leave the case to him.” After Zhou Congsheng finished speaking, he glanced at Zeng Hu with some disdain. “You should also look at Wu Chen. He’s so focused on his career. You should take better care of yourself.”
"What's wrong with me? The victim is here, so I have to stay and watch over him. Do you expect two soldiers on leave to serve him here? Is that appropriate?"
That's true; the police still need to get involved in handling cases.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Yuzhu let Zhao Yue stay with Shen Yuming. There are three rooms here. One room is for the children, one room is for Shen Yuming and Zhao Yue, and one room is for Zeng Hu and the man surnamed Huo.
Otherwise, if Zeng Hu were left to stay here alone with the victim, who knows what kind of gossip might arise the next day? After all, one should always be wary of others.
Zhou Congsheng was very happy. He drank some brown sugar millet porridge at Shen Yuming's house and then took Shen Yuzhu back home. Unfortunately, when it was time to sleep that night, he was sent to another small room.
When Huo Hongbang woke up, he saw a pretty girl applying a compress to his forehead.
"You're awake. How are you feeling? You had a fever all night, you know? Luckily, my sister-in-law had medicine, otherwise you would have been in serious trouble. What do you want? Water, right? Wait here."
The pretty girl was chattering away, and her voice sounded strangely familiar. He thought he had heard her while he was asleep, and he also heard her talking about wild boar and other wild game.
He lowered his eyes and frowned slightly. He didn't know what was going on yet, and he couldn't trust people too easily. Thinking this, he became slightly wary.
Upon hearing that he had woken up, almost everyone who was waiting in the main room came over, and Zhang Jie's children stood curiously at the back.
"Comrade, you're awake. Are you hungry? Sister Yuming, could you bring me some porridge?"
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away."
After Shen Yuming left, Zhou Congsheng came over.
"Comrade, don't be afraid. I'm from the garrison. This is Captain Zeng Hu from Yongning County. What's your name? Where are you from? Where do you live?"
Fok Hung-pong: "...I am Fok Hung-pong, a native of Hong Kong."
Um? ? ?
That accent is so bad, I can't understand a word!
Huo Hongbang was also a little discouraged. He didn't speak Mandarin well, and he had come to the mainland with his father to pay respects to their ancestors. Who would have thought that he would be arrested as soon as he went out? He felt that he had been very low-key all the way.
Shen Yuming brought over a bowl of porridge and handed it to him.
He mentally tried for a while to make sure he could say "thank you" smoothly before he finally opened his mouth and said, "Thank you!"
Everyone: "..."
