Lin Qiyue is quite formidable; she's sent those who spread rumors to jail. After thinking for a moment, she quickly smiled and said, "I'm not too sure either, but I heard she jumped into the lake in Pingcheng. Maybe she slipped and fell in, and she might have injured herself!"
Hailan looked at He Cuiqiao curiously. After thinking for a moment, she quickly agreed, "That's true. There are limitations to the ailments that can be treated in a woman's body. Besides, many male doctors won't treat women, saying things like there are differences between men and women."
“That’s right. Last time I went to the hospital, the male doctor said he couldn’t treat me and had a female nurse examine me so he could describe my symptoms to her. You tell me! We don’t care, but why do they care? When you’re really feeling unwell, who cares about gender differences? As long as you can get treatment, that’s all that matters.”
"Yes, the men in the family are the same way. They say that a woman's body cannot be seen by outside men, otherwise she is impure."
"That's not just outdated, that's incredibly feudal! It's infuriating!"
The conversation shifted, and when these topics came up, everyone wore expressions of pain.
Many gynecological diseases go untreated because in many places, outdated ideas persist, and many women are afraid to see a doctor if they can't find a female doctor.
Some male doctors will refuse patients' requests.
Lin Qiyue had no idea what everyone was talking about, so she took a walk in the park on the small road outside.
Seeing that it was lunchtime, Lin Qiyue ran towards the cafeteria.
Everyone went to the dining room to get their food, and after saying goodbye, they were about to go in.
"Wife, what brings you here?" Lan Yuchu brought two boxes of food and was a little surprised to see Lin Qiyue in the cafeteria.
"I'm here to get lunch!" She seemed to have forgotten that Lan Yuchu had promised her last night to get her lunch today, saying he wasn't too busy.
Feeling a little guilty, she changed her words, saying, "I just came out to exercise, and I thought you would definitely come to the cafeteria for food, so I came to pick you up."
Lan Yuchu realized that she must have forgotten, so she quickly found a way to save face.
"Hurry back, it's cold outside." Lan Yuchu was carrying the lunchbox in both hands and couldn't hold her arm.
Lin Qiyue reached out to help, but Lan Yuchu refused, saying, "Your husband can carry this much food. Let's go."
When the two were about to go home for dinner, they saw that Li Qu looked extremely tired.
"Sister July, Brother Lan?" Li Qu happened to be having dinner and greeted them quickly.
Lan Yuchu, her face darkening, reminded him, "Call him the deputy commander."
"Yes, Deputy Commander Lan," Li Qu immediately straightened up and replied.
Lan Yuchu's serious expression softened slightly.
Lin Qiyue looked at him, who was covered in sweat, glanced at Lan Yuchu, and then asked Li Qu, "Li Qu, have you called your family?"
"No." He didn't have time to make a phone call; he hadn't even gotten familiar with the surroundings before he was being watched.
I've been undergoing grueling training since early this morning.
"Then when you have time, call your family to let them know you're safe. Uncle Li and Brother Li must be very worried about you." Lin Qiyue thought he probably hadn't had time to call home. "If you're too embarrassed to say it on the phone, you can write a letter."
When boys make phone calls, there are many things they are reluctant to say, and it feels a bit awkward. But they can say things by writing letters.
Li Qu chuckled sheepishly and replied, "Okay, I understand, Sister July."
"Let's go back first, so as not to disturb his meal." Lan Yuchu was very unhappy to see his wife talking so happily with others.
Lin Qiyue did not continue speaking.
"Then, Sister July, I'll go in first."
"Go."
After Li Qu went inside, Lin Qiyue looked at his cold expression and said, "What are you doing? Li Qu is our younger brother. He just arrived here. You need to take care of him and show concern for his well-being, understand?"
Seeing his indifference, she couldn't let him go easy on Li Qu at work, nor would she do so.
But his expression was too cold.
"I know you'll say it's for his own good, but you can't be so serious. Your expression scares me." Lin Qiyue spoke first, knowing he would say it was for her own good.
Lan Yuchu looked at her helplessly and said everything she had to say.
“Li Qu is the bodyguard personally selected by the army commander. He has been trained at several levels. What I need to do now is to train him even better and more rigorously. When he returns to the army commander’s side, at least we will see the changes in him. In the future, when he goes on a mission, these skills may be enough for him to come back alive.”
He didn't want to be strict with anyone, but he couldn't.
Because Li Qu was someone he knew and treated like a younger brother, he was even stricter with him.
Just like when he enlisted, he strictly demanded of himself that he must tell everyone that he earned his position through his abilities and military achievements.
Lin Qiyue finally understood that he wouldn't budge an inch on matters of principle.
Knowing she was in the wrong, Lin Qiyue quickly admitted, "I know I was wrong, and I won't do it again. Don't be angry, okay?"
She just felt that Lan Yuchu was a bit strict with Li Qu, who had just arrived, and she felt sorry for him.
"Oh, by the way, remember to tell Li Qu to come over for dinner this weekend. I don't care, but you should buy some meat and treat him well, since you've been so harsh on him."
I want to invite people over for a meal, but I don't want to cook.
Lan Yuchu felt helpless for a moment, but what could he do? He could only spoil his wife.
What else could he do? It wasn't the first time he'd known his wife didn't like cooking.
Lin Qiyue then explained with a grin, "It's so cold, are you willing to let your wife catch a cold?"
