Pei Manning nodded and watched him leave the ward.

Han Jingchen left the house, and soon after, Liu Guihua came over with a smile, "My dear, your brother is really promising. He became a military officer at such a young age. What level of salary does he get?"

Pei Manning shook her head slightly. She wanted to talk more with her. The salary this woman was talking about was probably wages or something like that. She said she knew and would tell strangers if she knew.

"Where do your parents work?"

"How old are you?"

"How many brothers and sisters are there in your family?"

"you……"

"Mom, your dear son hasn't had dinner yet." Wang Jinbao said happily with one leg hanging.

"Okay, okay, your sister will bring it to you in a while!" Liu Guihua was a little angry, "You little bitch, don't you know what to do!"

After saying that, she turned to Pei Manning and said, "My dear, you look like a city girl. How could a girl from the brigade raise someone as innocent as you? When my daughter married someone in the city, I was sure she knew you. Which street do you live on?"

Although she knew Pei Manning was talking, she still tried to find out indirectly.

At this time, Han Jingchen came back with a clean lunch box and walked to the bedside. "I'll change a single room for you. Pack your things and we'll move in."

Hearing this, Liu Guihua's face turned pale and looked extremely ugly. What does this mean? Do you despise them for being peasants or what? Are you going to live in a single room?

Due to Han Jingchen's identity, Liu Guihua didn't say anything unpleasant, but her face turned black from holding it in.

Pei Manning nodded. The clothes she was wearing were already so dirty and torn that they looked shabby, but she didn't throw them away. She put all her things in order, including the two sets of clothes Han Jingchen bought for her, as well as a toothbrush, towel, enamel cup, enamel basin, fruits, aluminum lunch box and so on.

In two moves, they carried the things.

The single ward is on the fourth floor. The hospital is the second tallest building in the county. The walls are plastered with white lime and the bottom is painted green. It is simple and pure. However, the tallest building in the entire county is a department store, which was rebuilt from a five-story building in the Republic of China period.

"Brother Chen," Jiang Ye hurried back and saw two people carrying things out of the ward, and asked in surprise, "What's going on? Can we be discharged from the hospital?"

"Change to another ward," Han Jingchen asked him without explaining too much, carrying his things, "Do you want to return the ox cart?"

"I'm going back. I'm going to say hello to Sister-in-law Aihua. We'll meet again on the train tomorrow afternoon.

We will go back to the production team directly from the county town." He picked up the bag in his hand, "Sister-in-law also prepared food for us on the road... Brother Chen, don't look at me like that, I really pushed her to take some hawthorns and persimmons."

There are a lot of these wild things growing in the mountains of Qingxi Production Team, and they are very valuable.

Han Jingchen didn't say anything else. When everyone arrived at the single ward, he said to Jiang Ye, "Go borrow paper and pen from the doctor."

Pei Manning's heart tensed up, knowing what Han Jingchen was going to do, and her slender white fingers curled up nervously.

Jiang Ye looked at Han Jingchen, then looked at Pei Manning, and nodded, "Okay."

As soon as he put down his things and left, Pei Manning walked to the chair and sat down unconsciously, lowering her head and remaining silent, like a child who had done something wrong.

The single ward in the county town was relatively large, but in addition to a bed, it was also equipped with a wooden chair.

Han Jingchen stretched out his long legs, sat opposite her, and looked at her deeply.

After a while, he said in a deep voice, "We will return to the army tomorrow at noon. If you have any difficulties, tell me now as soon as possible. I will help you as soon as possible. But if you want to go home and continue to stay here, without a local household registration and a letter of introduction, you will be sent back to your hometown as a blind migrant sooner or later. Do you understand what I mean?"

Pei Manning's eyes flickered. This household registration... it means household registration, right? What is a letter of introduction? Is it a pass?

She had official documents of identity and a pass to Chongzhou, but they were in the jade mustard seed. Even if she could take them out, they would definitely be useless here.

"Brother Chen, give me the pen." After a while, Jiang Ye borrowed the things and at Han Jingchen's signal, put the pen and paper on the wooden table.

"Do you have anything to say now?" Han Jingchen looked at Pei Manning, who had been silent, with a deep gaze.

"..." Pei Manning pinched the hem of her clothes, and she knew what to tell them. She was afraid that if she made up a lie, she would be found out.

She will definitely reveal her origins!

But, in this big world, except Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye, she didn't know anyone here and had nowhere to go.

No money, no household registration, no friends, no relatives, no place to stay, nothing.

What should she do? Pei Manning was torn between inner thoughts and inner desires.

After a long silence, Han Jingchen stared at her, his patience finally exhausted, and frowned: "You can say it if you want to, but we must not meddle in other people's business."

Taking the paper and pen, Han Jingchen quickly wrote down Liao Weiguo's name and the address of the county public security bureau.

Iron painting and silver hook, vigorous and powerful.

"If you have any problems in the future, take this paper and find this person." Although Han Jingchen said that he didn't care about her, he could not really care about her.

Pei Manning secretly glanced at the way he held the pen and kept it in mind.

After taking the paper, Pei Manning hesitated for a moment before reaching out to pick up the pen. She imitated his pen-holding posture, a little clumsily, and wrote carefully, stroke by stroke.

There was a lamp hanging in the middle of the ward ceiling. The umbrella-shaped iron lampshade was painted green, and the bulb emitted a warm yellow light, adding a bit of warmth to this late autumn night.

Under the dim light, the girl holds the pen with her bare hands, her profile focused and calm, which is particularly hazy and beautiful, and she even feels like an ancient lady.

"I am Pei Manning. I would like to thank you two for saving my life. Fortunately, you two helped me financially and took good care of me, so I was able to recover from my illness. I spent a lot of money, but I will pay it back in full... I will definitely repay you for all your kindness."

After finishing writing, Pei Manning felt a little embarrassed when looking at the crooked small characters. She was very good at using this strange pen.

Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye saw that she was writing seriously and did not say anything for a while.

Jiang Ye's expression was a little awkward, and he scratched the back of his head, "Um... Pei Zhi, is there any need to be so serious?"

This kind of cultured manner is something that a rough guy like him is not used to.

Pei Manning was stunned for a moment, looked at him, and tried to write as seriously as possible: "I hope you two can leave your address."

At this time, Pei Manning didn't know what era she had entered. She only thought that she had a few skills, such as making rouge and powder, and painting and embroidery, but she was still starving herself to death.

Once she settles down and finds a way to make a living, she will definitely find a way to repay them.

"Who learned your handwriting from?" Han Jingchen suddenly asked while looking at the paper.

Most characters have been simplified in mainland China, although they are not popularized nationwide. Occasionally, some people will mix in traditional characters, but it is obvious that Pei Manning is used to writing traditional characters for all characters.

Moreover, there are some words that have long been abandoned in the course of history and can only be found in a dictionary.

Pei Manning thought Han Jingchen thought her handwriting was too ugly, and she was immediately embarrassed and ashamed, and wrote: "My mother."

Her mother was born in a general's mansion. When she was young, she was fortunate to have the talented woman Ju Shanwei as her teacher. She was excellent in both calligraphy and painting. Unfortunately, her mother died of illness when she was 18 years old.

Han Jingchen nodded and didn't ask any more questions: "Repaying is a must. Saving you is just a coincidence. You should have a good rest tonight. If there is nothing else, we will leave first."

time

It was too late, and the two men stayed in the female doctor's ward for a long time.

Han Jingchen and Jiang Ye left the room and walked to the corridor. It was a late autumn night and there was endless darkness outside. The low and densely packed houses in the county town were lit with cold lanterns, and the night breeze was permeated with a hint of coolness.

After walking a distance, Jiang Ye asked, "Brother Chen, why didn't you tell Pei Zhi our address? What if she gets into trouble and finds us? It seems like she has some difficulties."

Otherwise, she, a woman, would run away from home alone, penniless, without even any luggage or tickets.

But Pei Zhi avoided talking about his background and only talked about what happened to him. It seemed that he would not get any results if he asked more questions.

Han Jingchen stopped walking, his eyes cold, and sneered, "Why do you believe what she says?"

"Ah?" Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he lowered his voice, "Brother Chen, do you suspect that she is asking for our address for some other purpose?"

Han Jingchen glanced at him and said, "That's not necessary. Anyway, this woman's background is unknown. Before we find out her identity, we won't reveal too much information to her."
