Chapter 20: Flirting with his woman, I am tired of living
Ye Xiaomei seldom came to the county town, and the only person she could call out by name was Director Li, and it just so happened that the county hospital was the closest.
Director Li quickly came out of the office and saw Ye Xiaomei at a glance.
Isn't this the girl Xiao Ma brought to see the doctor last time? She's also paying for her medical expenses, so there must be a deep connection between them:
"Comrade Xiaoye? What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell again?"
Ye Xiaomei looked back in panic, and Zhang Changjiang caught up with her in an instant.
He stopped in his tracks and a trace of fear flashed across his face.
"He's being a hooligan." Ye Xiaomei quickly pulled her sister to stand behind Director Li.
Director Li sighed and held his forehead: "Can you please be quiet? The guy you beat into the hospital the day before yesterday needed three stitches. If your mother didn't beat you because she knew you were such a bad person, I would beat you for her."
As he said this, Director Li raised his hand and was about to draw.
Ye Xiaomei secretly felt safe.
Who would have thought that Zhang Changjiang shrank his neck, and Director Li's slap was still not coming.
"Uncle, I was wrong. I won't do it again. I won't do it again." Zhang Changjiang avoided him with a lewd look on his face, begging for mercy, and occasionally glancing at Ye Xiaomei:
"There will definitely not be a next time."
Uncle? Ye Xiaomei swallowed hard. They are a family.
"Next time I'll send you to the compound." Director Li raised his hand to pinch Zhang Changjiang's ear, but he dodged. He could only lower his voice and warn:
"You don't want to live anymore? Do you know the relationship between her and Ma Qijun? Do you really want to die? If you want to be a hooligan, you should know who it is."
As he said that, he kicked Zhang Changjiang on the butt, and Jie'er ran away, covering his butt.
Director Li turned around and said apologetically, "Xiao Ye, this naughty child needs to be educated. Don't take it to heart. It's hot. Come to my office for some tea."
Ye Xiaomei was so frightened that her mouth was dry and her tongue was parched.
In the office, the six-blade fan on the ceiling was humming, and it was indeed a lot cooler.
Director Li poured two cups of tea for Ye Xiaomei and Ye Xiaoya, then sat back in his chair.
"Zhang Changjiang is my nephew. His mother and father don't get along well and often quarrel, so the child is not well educated. You must not take it to heart. I will deal with him later."
Ye Xiaomei finally felt a little relieved in her heart. After all, Director Li was an upright person who only helped others and not relatives.
"By the way, Xiao Ye, what is your relationship with Ma Qijun?" Director Li was still worried. He didn't know what kind of person Ma Qijun was, but the news from the Armed Forces said that he was not someone to be trifled with.
In addition, he had been in the army for ten years and had made many military achievements. He was the number one model soldier in Qinghe County and had received more medals than coins in his pocket.
In addition, he is now recuperating at home due to an injury, and the county has received a notice from higher authorities that all nursing and medical expenses will be reimbursed. This is not a special treatment that can be obtained by ordinary meritorious service.
Ye Xiaomei lowered her head suddenly. She was too embarrassed to say that he was her fiancé: "He's my friend..."
"He's my brother-in-law." Ye Xiaoya straightened her waist. She hadn't eaten meat for many years, but since her brother-in-law sent her meat and said it was enough for her last time, she secretly affirmed this brother-in-law in her heart.
Ye Xiaomei's face turned red, and the heat spread to her neck.
"..." Director Li's face was startled, and he pulled the corner of his mouth and said:
"They...are quite a good match." He was determined to beat Changjiang up when he got home. He actually flirted with a soldier's family. He was really looking for death.
"Eat...eat candy." Director Li quickly grabbed a handful of White Rabbit candies from the drawer and handed them to Ye Xiaomei and Ye Xiaoya.
Ye Xiaoya's eyes sparkled. She had long envied other children for having candies, especially White Rabbit and Golden Monkey candies, which cost only one cent each.
"Thank you, uncle." Ye Xiaoya thanked him sensibly.
Director Li nodded, his hands shaking a little as he picked up the teacup.
Just then someone knocked on the door: "Come in."
The person who came in was Heizi. Ye Xiaomei's eyes lit up. Since he came, Ma Qijun must have come as well.
"Oh, what a coincidence, why are you here, sister-in-law?" Heizi's eyes lit up, he straightened his back and saluted, which looked quite funny.
Ye Xiaomei's face shuddered with heat, she felt so awkward being called sister-in-law: "Well, I came here to..."
"It's okay, it's all a misunderstanding." Director Li interrupted quickly. Ma Qijun couldn't know about this, so he asked:
"Are you here to see me for something? Or is there something wrong with the pony's leg?"
Hei Zi rubbed his hands and said maliciously: "Didn't I tell you yesterday? Book."
"Oh, yes, yes, books." Director Li quickly rummaged through the cabinets and took out book after book.
Ye Xiaomei's eyes widened when she saw this. Oh my god, acupuncture and moxibustion can cure all diseases, Shennong's Pharmacopoeia, and notes on internal evidence? A manual of dialectics, and even acupuncture and moxibustion A and B, all medical books.
Ye Xiaomei didn't know when she stood up in excitement.
Director Li explained, "I asked my old friend at the Chinese Medicine Hospital to help me find it yesterday. Look, these are what your eldest son wanted."
Ye Xiaomei swallowed her saliva, her eyeballs seemed to be glued to the pile of books. These were all good things. Maybe some of them could cure her illness, or some could quickly cure Ma Qijun's bone disease.
"Okay, thank you, Lao Li." Heizi was not polite at all. He turned around and was about to leave with his arms full of hope. He noticed that his sister-in-law took two steps forward. Why did her eyes look a bit greedy?
Heizi followed her gaze and looked at the book in his arms: "Sister-in-law, do you want to read it?"
"Hmmmm." Ye Xiaomei's head was shaking. It was so difficult to find professional books in this day and age. Her copy of the herbal medicine that was used as a cushion on the corner of the table was very thin. Some of these books were half a stalk thick, and the content must be richer and more detailed.
"Then I'll go talk to the boss." Heizi said happily as he handed a bag of books to Ye Xiaomei.
Ye Xiaomei sat back in her chair as if she had found a treasure, and immediately opened a book on her knees.
"Xiao Ye, you still like reading medical books." Director Li interrupted intentionally or unintentionally when he saw the situation eased.
Ye Xiaomei immersed herself in the book from the moment she opened the first page. When she saw the unfamiliar complex words, she frowned unconsciously. She had to remember them and look them up in the dictionary one by one.
"You read quite seriously." Director Li was a little embarrassed to talk to himself when he saw that she ignored him.
The little girl next to her also tilted her neck to look. She had just registered for the first grade last year and she only knew a few of these words.
Until the door clicked open and Heizi came in pushing a wheelchair.
Director Li hurried over to greet him: "How is your leg these days?"
The man in the wheelchair nodded, his eyes fixed on the reading girl. His long, curled eyelashes left a silhouette on her eyelids, quiet and as gentle as a painting.
What made Ma Qijun feel numb was her short hair. He never thought that such short hair would have a different flavor. What did it look like? It looked like a clean and soft daisy on the top of a mountain.
"What's that smell?" Ye Xiaomei couldn't help but frown, then she raised her eyes, and her pupils suddenly shrank.
No wonder she felt a familiar smell stirring inside her body. It turned out to be him.
Ye Xiaomei subconsciously tried to move away a little, but as soon as she stood up, the books on her knees fell to the ground, leaving only the one in her hand.
Suddenly, he lowered his head in embarrassment and bit his lips.
"I'll do it, I'll do it." Director Li stepped forward and bent down to pick up the book.
Ma Qijun crossed his fingers on his thighs and asked, "Are you feeling unwell again?"
Ye Xiaomei was at a loss as to how to tuck the hair behind her ears, but her fingers found nothing. She suddenly forgot that she had cut her long hair.
Ye Xiaoya looked at her brother-in-law who had taken advantage of her and said quickly, "My sister met some hooligans. We were scared and ran to the hospital."
