In the evening, Lin Shu and Xu Xiaoli took a bus back to the brigade together.
"Have you heard about the tragedy of educated youth that happened in the brigade three years ago?" Xu Xiaoli came over and asked mysteriously.
Lin Shu nodded.
"How did you know?" Xu Juan opened her eyes wide, looking surprised.
"The captain said so once."
"I won't talk about what happened three years ago. Han Yuan said that the old man who kidnapped you and Xiaoxue last time was the murderer."
Lin Shu was surprised. She had thought about the old man's crime three years ago, but she had never thought that he had anything to do with this incident.
"You find it incredible too, right?" Xu Xiaoli continued, "That old man is a roaming human trafficker. Three years ago, he wanted to kidnap that educated youth, but he didn't realize there were two people inside. He failed, so he decided to go all out..."
Lin Shu felt a surge of anger in his heart: "I don't know how many people he has harmed over the years. This man really deserves to die."
"He deserves to die!" Xu Xiaoli said angrily, "Luckily he's been caught now. I'm really glad he didn't do anything to you back then."
Lin Shu felt a chill run down his spine as he recalled the situation. If Han Yan hadn't arrived, he couldn't imagine what would have happened.
The two got out of the car and talked as they walked.
Suddenly, Xu Xiaoli pointed in a direction and said, "Isn't that Xiaoxue and Xiaoxia?"
Lin Shu looked in the direction Xu Xiaoli pointed. It was indeed them.
Xiaoxia looked a little excited and was gesturing with her hands as she spoke.
Xiaoxue lowered her head and looked timid.
Lin Shu frowned slightly: "Let's go and take a look."
Before they got close, the two men discovered them.
Xiaoxia crossed her arms and glared at them.
Han Xue ran towards them with a happy look on her face.
"What happened?" Lin Shu asked.
Xiaoxue glanced at Xiaoxia, pursed her lips, shook her head and said nothing.
On this side, Xiaoxia walked towards them with her hands folded and a proud look on her face. She stopped in front of them, looked at Xiaoxue and said, "What I just said is for your own good. Don't be bewitched by someone." As she said that, she looked at Lin Shu meaningfully.
Lin Shu raised his eyebrows.
"And you," Xiaoxia squinted at her, looking down on her. "If you hadn't taken advantage of Han Yan's injury, he wouldn't have thought of marrying you."
Lin Shu is funny.
"That's not the case." Xiaoxue widened her eyes, her face excited, and she seemed to have mustered up the courage to refute.
Lin Shu felt warm in his heart.
Xiaoxia opened her eyes wide and looked at Xiaoxue with surprise, as if she had not expected Xiaoxue to dare to speak to her like that.
Lin Shu pulled Xiaoxue over and said calmly, "If he doesn't marry me, will he marry you?"
"Of course." Xiaoxia said as if it was a matter of course.
"Then why didn't you come when he was injured?"
"I..." Xiaoxia's eyes flickered, her mouth opened, and she said dryly, "I, I'm busy."
Lin Shu smiled at her, not exposing her lie. It was human nature to seek profit and avoid harm. As long as it didn't harm others, it couldn't be said that it was wrong.
"Now Han Yan is ready to marry me. I also hope Miss Xiaoxia can find her ideal husband soon." Lin Shu said with a smile.
"You..." Xiaoxia blushed.
Lin Shu ignored her and turned to Xu Xiaoli and Xiaoxue and said, "Let's go."
After they walked away, Lin Shu asked Xiaoxue again: "Can you tell me what you were arguing about just now?" She didn't dare to say it because she knew Xiaoxia was there.
Xiaoxue hesitated for a moment before she said, "The team leader asked me if I would like to be a primary school teacher in the team. Xiaoxia found out and persuaded me to agree."
Lin Shu understood. Liu Fang had been fired, and the elementary school still had a vacancy for a teacher. Han Xue was the only person in the team who had completed high school, so she was indeed a suitable candidate.
"Then do you want to go?" Lin Shu asked.
"I, I don't know either." Han Xue looked confused.
"Ask your heart and think about it carefully." Lin Shu said in a gentle voice.
"But I'm still studying medicine with you." Han Xue said in a low voice with a red face, as if she was afraid that she would blame her for giving up halfway.
"It doesn't matter." Lin Shu chuckled. "People have the opportunity to try many things. The most important thing is to find what you like."
Han Xue was stunned for a moment, then hummed softly and said a little embarrassedly, "Then I'll think about it."
"That's right." Xu Xiaoli on the side joked, "Someone like me who is incompetent and untalented can only be a salesperson."
"Don't underestimate yourself," Lin Shu said with a smile. "It's a virtue to shine in your position."
Xu Xiaoli giggled after hearing this: "You really know how to talk..."
The next day, Han Xue told Lin Shu her decision as soon as she arrived at the clinic.
"Sister Lin Shu," Han Xue said shyly, her face slightly red, "I've decided to become a teacher."
Lin Shu was stunned and asked with a smile: "Why?"
"I feel I am more suited to dealing with children." Han Xue said shyly.
Lin Shu nodded. She secretly hoped that Han Xue could continue studying medicine.
On the one hand, she was indeed talented in medicine. On the other hand, after she got married and joined the army, Han Xue could continue to study with Grandpa Zhang and also take care of him a little.
However, since Han Xue has made the decision, she will not interfere.
"Being a teacher is great too." Lin Shu encouraged with a smile, "Then keep up the good work."
"Yeah." Han Xue smiled happily.
After Han Xue packed up the things she had left here and left, Lin Shu sighed in disappointment.
"Why are you sighing?" Doctor Zhang came in and asked in confusion, "Xiaoxue, why did you leave?"
"She won't come to study anymore."
"Oh, why? I heard you say she's doing well in school."
"She is going to be a teacher in the brigade's primary school."
"That's not bad. Everyone has their own aspirations. You don't have to be sad about this."
Lin Shu nodded.
"Lin Shu." At this time, Xu Xiaoli walked in.
"Sister Xiaoli, why are you here? Don't you have to go to work?" Lin Shu asked in surprise.
Xu Xiaoli looked at Dr. Zhang hesitantly.
Lin Shu understood that she was embarrassed.
Doctor Zhang also understood and turned to leave.
After Doctor Zhang left, Xu Xiaoli immediately sat down at the consultation table and said with embarrassment, "I want you to take my pulse and see if there's anything wrong with that."
That aspect? Lin Shu was puzzled for a moment, then reacted and nodded.
"Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Lin Shu asked while taking her pulse.
"It's my mother-in-law," Xu Xiaoli complained. "She's been telling me lately about this family's daughter-in-law getting pregnant right after she got married, and that family's daughter-in-law giving birth to a big fat boy."
Lin Shu smiled: "There's no rush for this kind of thing."
"I know that too." Xu Xiaoli sighed. "Who wouldn't understand that? She told me that specifically. And I've been married for almost a year now. If I don't get pregnant, people will gossip about me."
