Chapter 145 Farewell
Ning Xiyue put down her chopsticks and looked at Ning Qingzhi. She didn't feel surprised by the news, as she had already guessed it.
Although I felt a little reluctant in my heart, there was a calm smile on my face.
"Chinese New Year is not too long away, and we can go home for the New Year if we have time. There will always be a day when the three of us will get together again, and then we can eat mutton hotpot again."
"My sister is right. I must make another mutton hotpot."
Ning Qingyuan stopped drinking his soup, put the bowl down, and patted his chest with a carefree smile on his face to assure:
"Brother, don't worry when you go back. I'm here and will take good care of my sister. We live close to each other and we both have bicycles, so it's convenient."
Ning Qingzhi's originally calm face also put on a hearty smile, and he patted his thigh and said, "Okay, the three of us brothers and sisters have made a deal. Next time we get together, we will have mutton hotpot. If there is a chance, I will take you to the grassland to hunt. The mutton there is fat and delicious."
Ning Xiyue nodded happily: "Then I'll make a note of it. I haven't been to the prairie yet."
"And me." Ning Qingyuan raised his glass, "Come on, let's have another drink."
The three of them raised their chrysanthemum tea glasses and clinked them at the same time.
"Eat quickly, don't stop, keep eating the mutton. There's still a lot of meat left at the bottom, and there are so many cabbage leaves in the basket next to it. Eat them all."
Ning Qingyuan was eating mutton. Seeing his younger sister and older brother just drinking tea, he urged them to eat the meat and scooped a spoonful of meat into their bowls with a colander.
"Okay, keep eating."
The two siblings who had put down their chopsticks picked up their chopsticks again and continued to eat the mutton in the pot.
The slight sadness of separation disappeared without a trace, and the three siblings were only thinking about eating jerky and rice.
After dinner, the two brothers helped to clean up and let Ning Xiyue sit aside and play by herself, not allowing her to do anything.
Ning Xiyue just happened to go and pack some things for Brother Ning to pack.
It was filled with medicines for stopping bleeding and treating various internal and external injuries, and also contained wolf-tooth amulets in a string of six.
When sending Ning Qingzhi to the foot of the mountain, Ning Xiyue specifically instructed him: "Brother, if you run out of medicine, write to me and I will send you some more so that you will never lack medicine."
How could the amount of medicine sent by higher authorities be as much as the amount she sent directly?
"Okay, I will definitely write you a letter." Ning Qingzhi took the thing and put it away.
Ning Xiyue pointed to another package of medicine and said, "Take the medicine here to Comrade Ji. He paid me a salary before, but he never came to get the medicine."
Not far away, Ji Yanming, who had been waiting there for a long time, saw someone coming out and quickly stood up and walked over here.
"Sister, isn't that Comrade Ji?" Ning Qingyuan touched Ning Xiyue's arm with his elbow and looked at the person walking towards them.
Ning Qingzhi turned around and looked in the direction of his gaze, then waved, "It's Old Ji, sister, just give him the medicine directly."
"That's fine."
Ning Xiyue looked at Comrade Ji who was walking against the light, and guessed in her heart that he must be here to ask about medicine.
When Ji Yanming approached, Ning Xiyue handed him the pack of medicine that was originally intended for their team: "Comrade Ji, this is the medicine for you. It has been prepared for you."
Ji Yanming looked down at the package handed to him and took it naturally: "Okay, thank you, thank you for your hard work."
Ning Qingzhi walked over and patted Ji Yanming on the shoulder and asked curiously, "Old Ji, why are you here? I invited you to come for dinner, but you said you didn't want to come?"
"Something happened before, and now that it's done I'm here to pick you up. I'm also here to get your medicine." Ji Yanming glanced at him and spoke nonsense in a serious manner.
Ji Yanming didn't want to come. He really wanted to come and have dinner together, but in order not to disturb the three siblings who had finally gathered together to have this farewell meal, he reluctantly refused.
He wasn't there to pick anyone up. He had been squatting nearby for an hour just wanting to take this opportunity to come over and say goodbye in person.
Ji Yanming looked at Ning Xiyue and said with assurance: "Comrade Xiyue, I got the medicine. Thank you again for your medicine. It helped us a lot. Thank you. We will officially evacuate this place tomorrow. If you have any questions about the cooperation with your medicine, you can write to me in the future. I am the matchmaker, and I have the responsibility to help you."
"Okay, thank you. I will write to you if I have any questions. I also want to thank Comrade Ji for his help several times. I will treat you to dinner again if there is a chance."
Ning Xiyue politely agreed. Whether to write or not was secondary. As long as she said it well, it would be fine. In case she needed help with anything, it would also be a personal connection.
"Okay, Old Ji, let's go and go back early."
Ning Qingzhi became alert and couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he went over and pulled Ji Yanming out.
While pulling it out, he stuffed an envelope into Ning Xiyue's pocket and waved at her: "Sister, you guys go back. I'm leaving first. I'll write you a letter when I get back."
He always felt that there was something strange about this Old Ji. When would he come to pick him up specially? When would he be so kind to help others? He was a well-known cold-faced and ruthless man in the team. He might be planning to target his sister, so he had to keep a close eye on him.
As Ji Yanming was being dragged away, he turned around and quickly said a goodbye: "Comrade Xiyue, see you later."
"Sister, let's go back." Ning Qingzhi took a few quick steps.
"Okay, bye."
Ning Xiyue waved her hands happily, without any sadness of parting at all. They were all family, and there would be plenty of time for them to meet in the future.
Ning Qingyuan waved and said, "Brother, see you during the New Year."
After seeing off Brother Ning, Ning Qingyuan sent Ning Xiyue to the Youth League’s Home before riding his bicycle to the Dahuai Team.
Ning Xiyue looked at the envelope in her hand. It contained money and bills. This brother was giving her this month's salary again.
Back in the house, Chen Yetu was drawing furniture designs, drinking steaming mutton soup while doing so, looking quite comfortable.
Seeing Ning Xiyue coming in, he put down his pen and bowl and said, "Xiyue, you're back. The mutton soup your brother brought here is really delicious. Drinking the mutton soup warms my whole body."
"Then you can drink more, it will help to get rid of the cold."
At this point, Ning Xiyue took out three pills for dysmenorrhea and handed them to her: "This is medicine for dysmenorrhea. It's already prepared. Take one pill a day for three courses in total. There are no side effects. You can try it and see if it works for you."
Ning Xiyue was sure that the medicine worked, but for the sake of unnecessary trouble, she would not tell Chen Yechu for sure. At this moment, she suddenly understood that doctors would only give you ambiguous answers when prescribing medicine.
"Really, thank you so much, Xiyue. Chen Yechu took the medicine happily and said, "That's good. Hopefully, I won't feel any pain in the next ten days." ”
Ning Xiyue, who was about to pour water for her feet in a wooden bucket, looked up and asked, "Your stomach is still hurting? It's been going on for several days."
Chen Yechu smiled bitterly: "Well, this isn't once every three months, it lasts half a month each time, and the pain in my stomach lasts for a long time, only the last three days without pain, it's a bit troublesome."
Ning Xiyue had nothing to say. She originally envied Chen Yechu for having his period once every three months, but this time half a month was too long. Compared to concentrating three months together, she would rather have it once a month.
"Don't worry, you'll see results in three days. If it works, you'll suffer less. You go ahead and do your thing. I'll go get some water for your feet."
When Ning Xiyue went to the kitchen to fetch half a bucket of hot water for soaking her feet, Chen Yetu had already taken a pill and spoke to her excitedly.
"Xiyue, it must work this time. As soon as I took it, I felt comfortable in my stomach, as if the pain was relieved."
"Really? Congratulations. Can you help me record your reaction to the medicine over the past few days? This medicine will be used as the efficacy of the clinical trial I asked you to conduct."
This was the first time this method was used on a real patient who had suffered from dysmenorrhea for many years. Ning Xiyue was very interested in it. She would feel sorry for such a good opportunity if she did not record this case.
Chen Yechu felt the effect and was filled with joy. He agreed without hesitation: "Okay, I will definitely record it in detail for you. However, I will still give it to you."
Hearing this, Ning Xiyue agreed without hesitation and expressed her own thoughts about the modern items in Chen Yechu's place.
"If you really want to give it to me, then you can make me some unique delicacies from your hometown, like the spicy potato chips. You make them really delicious. I wonder if you have other delicious foods. I really want to try them."
"Okay, it's settled. I'll make you another delicious meal tomorrow."
After Chen Yechu finished speaking, he also took a bucket to soak his feet and sat side by side with Ning Xiyue.
Ning Xiyue was looking forward to what delicious food she would come up with tomorrow.
Suddenly I feel like I have two golden fingers!
