The sky in southern Tibet in August is always unpredictable. It was so hot just now that it was hard to breathe, but now there is a slight breeze.
Xiao Huang was riding on the horse with a medical kit on his back. He looked at Xie Wan's back and shouted worriedly, "Doctor Xie, you are less than two months pregnant. You really can't ride a horse."
The horse Xie Wan was riding was a docile chestnut mare that she had specially chosen.
"I know what I'm doing. Let's ride slowly. It won't be a big problem."
The roads to some outposts are rather rugged, making it inconvenient to drive and too far to walk, so it is more convenient to ride a horse.
Xie Wan had to talk a lot before Qin Muye agreed to give the two horses to the clinic.
After knowing that she was pregnant, Qin Muye didn't allow her to ride a horse anymore, but Xie Wan was of that personality, so she still stole the horse when Qin Muye was busy and couldn't care.
Leaving the horse at the foot of the mountain to graze, Xie Wan and Xiao Huang walked along the mountain road for another half an hour before reaching the 701 outpost.
In the summer, all kinds of unknown wild flowers bloomed all over the mountains and fields in southern Tibet. Xiao Huang picked a lot of flowers along the way and said he would take them back to Xie Wan to put in a vase.
At first, no one quite understood Xie Wan's habit of putting flowers and plants on the table.
Aren’t they just wild flowers and weeds? What’s so special about them?
But seeing that Xie Wan would smile every time he saw those flowers, Xiao Huang got into the habit of picking some and putting them on Xie Wan's desk in the clinic.
Xiao Huang was a girl from the countryside. She was very clever and skillful. She even made a wreath for Xie Wan, which Xie Wan wore outside his military cap.
"Thank you, Doctor, you are so beautiful!" Xiao Huang praised sincerely.
There was a bump in front of him, and Xie Wan jumped over it easily. He reached out and pulled Xiao Huang, and said jokingly, "You flatter me every day, and I feel like I'm about to become a fairy."
Xiao Huang panted, wiped his sweat and said, "You are the fairy. I heard from the soldiers that the Buddha statue that the Indians across the street worshipped looks a lot like you."
Xie Wan suddenly lost interest in continuing this topic.
She really didn't dare to think that the Buddha statue was her.
I don’t know what’s wrong with those Indians. Wasn’t it that when she first joined the army, she followed Qin Muye to perform a mission on the opposite side, and she encountered Indians pooping in groups, and she kicked them down out of mischief?
Why did they make a clay statue of her and give her the title of "Reincarnation Buddha"?
Fortunately, she practices Taoism. If she had practiced Buddhism, she might have ascended to heaven if they had worshipped her like this.
The outpost is located in an open area on the top of the mountain, surrounded by continuous snow-capped mountains and deep canyons. From a distance, the small building looks particularly lonely in the sun, but also reveals a kind of perseverance.
"Doctor Xie is here!" The soldiers saw Xie Wan from afar and came to greet her with friendly smiles on their faces. Here, Xie Wan is not only a military doctor, but also the most beautiful military wife in their hearts.
"Thank you, military doctor. These are the Cordyceps we picked up ourselves. They are all yours!"
"Thank you, military doctor. This is a Tibetan antelope we shot yesterday. It was hot, so we ate the meat to prevent it from going bad. We tanned the skin early this morning and gave it to you! And this antelope horn, do you think it can be used as medicine? Take them together."
…
The soldiers were too enthusiastic and Xie Wan could hardly handle it.
"I appreciate your kindness, but you can't take the things.
If I take it, your Captain Qin will be punished."
The soldiers shouted, "We are giving it to you. What does it have to do with you, Commander?"
Xie Wan held her forehead with her hand. Although she knew that these were truly the soldiers' sincere thanks to her, she was Qin Muye's family member, so she didn't dare to accept them!
Xie Wan couldn't refuse, so she took the Cordyceps and sheep horns. These two were considered medicinal herbs, and she asked Xiao Huang to record them in the health center's account.
When she has the medicine, it will also be used by the soldiers.
"Stand still, let me see if your eczema is better."
The summer in southern Tibet is also the rainy season. The air is very humid and many soldiers have contracted eczema.
This time, Xie Wan brought the ointment she made herself and asked the soldiers to apply it regularly. The eczema should be healed soon.
She took out a dozen boxes of mosquito coils from her backpack and reminded them, "The mosquitoes here are poisonous. You still have to light mosquito coils before you go to bed at night."
The soldiers gave Xie Wan the money for buying mosquito coils, and Xie Wan took it all without hesitation.
She also asked Zhang Xiaolan to bring these mosquito coils from the supply and marketing cooperative in the city.
She reported to Qin Muye at the beginning of summer about distributing mosquito coils to the soldiers. Qin Muye submitted the report, but it was almost the end of summer and the mosquito coils had not been delivered.
The Wild Wolf Regiment's supplies have to be allocated from above, and Qin Muye has no other choice.
Xie Wan thought that mosquito coils were not expensive, so she asked Zhang Xiaolan and Li Yufeng to help her buy a batch from the city, and she delivered them to the outpost one by one herself.
This time, we were going for supplies. We thought the weather in southern Tibet would be cooler by the end of August, but it was still so hot.
When Xie Wan examined soldier Zhang Qiang, she found that his knee was slightly red and swollen. "How did it happen?" She frowned.
"It's okay, Doctor Xie. I just twisted it accidentally when I was chasing the Tibetan antelope yesterday." Zhang Qiang said lightly.
"No, we can't be careless." Xie Wan examined him carefully, then took out ointment and bandages from the medical bag and carefully treated his wounds. "If you get injured in the future, don't just hold on. Either go to the clinic to find me, or call the regiment headquarters and I'll come over."
"Thank you, doctor." Zhang Qiang looked at her gratefully, his eyes full of respect.
"Okay, everyone take care of yourselves. I'll come see you again later." Xie Wan packed up the medical kit and prepared to leave.
