Chapter 236 What does she want this for?
Shen Chaoxi felt Shen Qingran's gaze the first time.
A feeling of shame welled up from deep within my bones.
It was as if someone had stripped him naked and hung him on a tree.
She subconsciously reached out to hide her belly.
When looking at Shen Qingran, her voice was particularly low, like a humble rural woman.
"Sister, I was wrong in the past, please don't hold it against me."
Shen Qingran looked at her attitude and didn't believe that she had become a better person.
She will never forget that it was she who drugged the original owner and killed him.
In her eyes, such a person is a murderer.
She would never be stupid enough to believe a murderer.
He looked at her indifferently.
How did this reborn Shen Chaoxi get out?
"Whether I forgive you or not is meaningless and worthless. If you have anything to say or want to talk to me about something, just tell me directly."
Shen Zhaoxi listened to her harsh words and endured the discomfort in his heart.
Now that she needs help from others, she naturally has to be humble.
"Sister, you are living a better life than me now, and I won't compete with you for anything."
"Can you please give me the notebook that grandpa left for you?"
The notebook left by grandpa?
Shen Qingran was suddenly stunned. After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly remembered.
It seems like there is such a thing.
Shen Chaoxi carefully observed the changes in Shen Qingran's expression, and her heart was beating fast.
"It's the notebook that's tied with a small rope."
Shen Qingran remembered this thing. It seemed that her grandfather gave it to her when he passed away. He said that it was some folk prescriptions recorded by the Shen family's ancestors since they were traveling doctors. It was very precious, so he asked her to keep it well.
If you find some special prescriptions in the future, you can also record them.
In the past, Shen Qingran had no plans to develop medical skills, so he didn't care about this matter.
She remembered where she had put the notebook.
"elder sister?"
Shen Qingran was distracted for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, that was left to me by my grandfather, I can't give it to you."
Shen Chaoxi became anxious when he heard it.
"Sister, that notebook was left to you by grandpa, but you have no use for it. If you give it to me, I can exchange it with you for something valuable."
Shen Qingran looked at Shen Chaoxi's anxious expression, the desire on his face was too obvious.
And a little greedy.
Someone like Shen Chaoxi would definitely not start asking for things for no reason.
He is so nice to her, this thing must have some special value.
No matter what the reason was, she would not give this thing to Shen Chaoxi.
Not only should we not give, we should also receive better.
Shen Qingran pushed Shen Zhaoxi's arm away, saying in a cold tone, "I'm sorry, I don't need it, I won't give it to you, and I don't want to trade anything with you."
Shen Chaoxi looked at Shen Qingran's resolute back and bit his lower lip tightly.
Shen Qingran, you will definitely be willing to give it to me.
Turned around and walked out of the hospital.
Shen Qingran left here and hurried back to the clinic to continue treating patients.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief when the lunch break was over.
Without sitting for long, he turned and walked towards the hospital where he had called.
After a while, a familiar voice came from the other end.
"Comrade Sun, excuse me, is Huo Tingxiao here?"
Sun Feng on the other end of the phone realized it was Shen Qingran, and said angrily, "Sister-in-law, the team leader just went out for training. I'll ask him to call you back later!"
Shen Qingran could only respond.
"All right then."
After Sun Feng hung up the phone, he felt something was wrong. It seemed like there was something wrong with his sister-in-law's voice!
He put down the pen he was using to write the report, put on his coat, and ran towards the training ground.
In the hot training ground, Huo Tingxiao, with his arms bare and muscles all over his body, was fighting with someone.
Several soldiers attacked together but failed and were knocked down directly.
Sun Feng took advantage of the break and shouted, "Report to the commander! I have something to report."
Huo Tingxiao wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked over with his thighs that looked very explosive.
"What's up?"
Sun Feng stood at attention and replied, "Captain, my sister-in-law just called you. From her tone, it sounded like she had something important to say."
As soon as Sun Feng finished speaking, he saw that his captain had flown several hundred meters away.
"......"
Ever since the team leader and his sister-in-law got along well, he's looking more and more like a married man!
There is nothing as cold as ice, that's all for them.
To my sister-in-law, it was like a big tiger turning into a little kitten.
Huo Tingxiao ran to the office in a few minutes with his long legs.
Call back quickly.
As soon as Shen Qingran arrived at the office, she heard someone calling her to answer the phone.
"Ranran, are you looking for me?"
Shen Qingran listened to his magnetic voice on the phone and the corners of her mouth curled up subconsciously.
"Yes, it was Xiao Sun who went to look for you? Actually, it's not particularly urgent."
"It's okay. I've already trained for that day."
"What do you want from me?"
Shen Qingran's expression became more serious and his voice became a little tense.
"Ting Xiao, Shen Chaoxi came to see me this morning."
"What?"
Huo Tingxiao thought he had heard it wrong, "Ranran, is it Chen Chaoxi?"
Shen Qingran heard his surprised voice and knew that he didn't know either.
Huo Tingxiao's eyebrows suddenly bulged, "Ranran, wait for me for a minute."
Huo Tingxiao put the phone aside, walked to the door, and shouted towards Sun Feng's office, "Sun Feng, come here."
Sun Feng had just sat down when he heard the captain's voice and shuddered with fear.
"What's wrong, Captain?"
Huo Tingxiao: "Has anyone called me in the past two days?"
Call up?
Sun Feng thought for a moment and suddenly froze, "Captain, there was a call last night from Shaanxi City. He said he would call today."
Huo Tingxiao understood immediately.
"You can get out now."
Huo Tingxiao picked up the phone again, "Ranran, I have been asking someone to pay attention to Shen Chaoxi. There must be a problem over there."
Shen Qingran hummed lightly.
"Don't be afraid. I'll sort things out later. Don't leave the hospital by yourself after get off work tonight. I'll pick you up."
Shen Qingran became a little nervous after hearing what he said, "Okay, I'll wait for you then."
Huo Tingxiao hung up the phone and called someone in Shan City immediately.
No one responded for a long time.
After hanging up the phone, Huo Tingxiao's dark eyes were filled with coldness.
I made a direct call to the local labor reform agency.
After communicating with the other party for a long time, I learned the reason why Shen Chaoxi was released.
She actually helped the labor camp recover a major loss, so she got a chance to have her sentence reduced and be released early.
The specific course of events is still unclear, but Shen Chaoxi’s move was reasonable and legal, so he really can’t say anything for the time being.
Huo Tingxiao's fingers gently stroked the table. The first thing Shen Chaoxi did when he came back was to look for Ranran.
He must not keep this time bomb.
At least think of a way to keep people away.
When Shen Qingran got off work, she saw Huo Tingxiao standing at the door waiting for her.
He walked over with the bag in hand, "You're here?"
Huo Tingxiao saw that she looked okay, and he let out a sigh of relief.
"Well, let's go."
As the two walked, Huo Tingxiao spoke, "Chen Chaoxi was released through formal procedures. It is said that he made significant contributions while in the labor camp, so he was released early. The person I arranged to watch over him has not been contacted yet."
"We'll have to wait for the details."
Shen Qingran nodded. Shen Chaoxi was reborn, so it was normal for him to know some secrets that she didn't know.
It’s just that I always feel uncomfortable when such people are around me.
"What did she ask you to do?"
Shen Qingran spoke truthfully, "She said she wanted a copy of the notebook that grandpa gave me before."
"Notes?"
Huo Tingxiao also found it strange. "Is there anything special about this thing?"
Shen Qingran shook her head. "I don't know. It contains some folk prescriptions recorded by my grandfather and the Lin family when they were practicing medicine. I remember that they seem to be pretty good."
"I'll take a look when I get back."
"No matter what, don't go out alone recently. I'm worried that she might do something."
Shen Qingran remembered something at this time, "Oh, I forgot to say that Shen Chaoxi is pregnant."
Are you pregnant?
Huo Tingxiao was also surprised. The other party didn't mention this matter when he called.
"Do you think she will use this child to threaten Zhao Donglai?"
It was a bit cold after leaving the hospital, so Huo Tingxiao wrapped her in clothes, “It should be impossible. At that time, Shen Chaoxi’s plan did not succeed. If she is really pregnant, it should be that man’s.”
Shen Qingran had heard Huo Tingxiao mention this matter before.
She just didn’t expect that Shen Chaoxi would be pregnant.
Did she marry that man?
That shouldn’t be the case. That man was also arrested for hooliganism.
That's very embarrassing. Whose child is this?
If you can’t figure it out, just stop thinking about it.
Shen Qingran got in the car and the two drove towards their new home.
When I got home, Father Shen, Mother Shen and Grandma Huo were in the main room.
"Why did you come back together?"
Shen Qingran didn't tell her about Shen Chaoxi. It wasn't because she was afraid that her parents would be soft-hearted, but because she simply didn't want to cause them trouble.
"Ting Xiao happened to be in the city on business today!"
Grandma Huo smiled and said, "It's just right, Ranran, you're back. I've discussed the wedding with your parents and we've decided to hold it on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. I asked someone to look it up and it's a good day!"
"It's a good day. This way we have time to prepare things for your wedding."
Mother Shen and Father Shen were smiling. After the old couple felt happy these two days, they felt younger.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, you guys make the decision on this matter. Ting Xiao and I will follow your arrangements."
The family was eating happily.
After dinner, Shen Qingran went into her room.
She remembered that this thing was placed at the innermost part of her luggage.
Found it!
Shen Qingran took out the notebook.
It's obvious that this notebook is quite old. The cover is made of sheepskin and is a bit cracked.
The handwriting inside is all in traditional Chinese characters at the beginning, and it is written like eight-legged essay.
Shen Qingran flipped through the pages carefully and read for a long time. Could there be some big secret recorded in this thing?
But after looking around, they are all prescriptions.
If this is true, then there is only one possibility left.
One of the prescriptions inside is what Shen Chaoxi needs.
No matter which prescription it was, she couldn't let Shen Chaoxi get it.
After all, she was reborn, and there were some opportunities that she would never give to someone who killed her.
After thinking about it, Shen Qingran decided to tidy up this place.
After looking around, everyone at home felt that it was not suitable.
At this time, she was a little envious of the heroines in some novels, because they had their own space.
She has nothing, it's so sad.
Shen Qingran was just feeling worried when she heard someone knocking on the door.
"Ranran? Mom made chicken soup for you, have some."
Huo Tingxiao saw that she looked ugly, "What's wrong?"
Shen Qingran stretched out her hand and handed over the note, "This is it. Shen Chaoxi asked me for it. I want to find a place to hide it, but I always feel unsafe at home."
Huo Tingxiao looked at the old notebook.
Shen Qingran immediately said, "Ting Xiao, you can either help me put it away or you should have been taught when you were keeping secrets."
Yes! Shen Qingran felt that she was really too smart.
Is there anyone who can keep secrets better than Huo Tingxiao?
That’s right.
Huo Tingxiao smiled, his handsome eyes and brows full of warmth.
"I will definitely do what my wife said."
Shen Qingran was suddenly teased by him and tapped his forehead in annoyance.
"Captain Huo, if the things are lost, I will skin you alive."
Huo Tingxiao looked at her somewhat delicate face, and his voice didn't sound threatening at all, but rather like a coquettish tone.
His heart felt soft, as if it were filled with cotton.
He tilted his head to take the letter and kissed her ear.
"Ranran, I suddenly want to get married soon."
Shen Qingran pinched the tip of his pretty nose and said, "Let's go, Captain Huo!"
The two of them stayed together for a while, and Shen Qingran pushed him out with a blushing face.
"I'll take you there tomorrow morning."
Huo Tingxiao looked at the closed door and glanced down at the letter in his hand. It was very simple to hide this.
What does Shen Chaoxi want this thing for?
It seems that I still need to check it carefully.
——
The next day, Shen Qingran and Huo Tingxiao went to work.
Mrs. Huo took Mother Shen to the People's Shopping Mall to buy things for the wedding.
There are many things to prepare for marriage in this era.
"Zhang Hong, let's go see if there are any pure cotton peony bed sheets and peony pillowcases from the Shanghai Textile Factory today. I remember that these are must-haves for weddings in your place."
Mother Shen responded, "That's right. I bought the enamel basin, washbasin stand, and thermos yesterday. I went to ask and they said they would arrive today. I have to go quickly."
The two walked quickly towards the People's Shopping Mall, and sure enough, there were quite a few people buying things there.
Mother Shen patted the old lady’s arm.
"Grandma, please wait for me, I'll go in first!"
After saying that, Mother Shen plunged into the crowd.
The face was squeezed so hard that it was deformed.
Finally, he came out with the list, smiling.
“Finally I bought it.”
"Hey, Zhang Hong, I told you that you are a reliable person."
The old lady flattered him without hesitation.
Mother Shen smiled, “Old lady, you haven’t experienced it. A few years ago, I went to the commune to grab pork, that was amazing.”
At that time, when the planned economy was strict, you couldn't afford to be slow even a step.
The two of them walked towards the checkout area while talking and laughing.
Not far away, Shen Chaoxi saw Shen’s mother from a distance.
Why is her aunt here?
Are those things in your hands wedding things?
Her pupils contracted violently.
I didn't expect that the person who was following Zhao Donglai would see Shen Qingran's mother.
Shen Qingran rejected her without hesitation yesterday, and she was thinking of a solution!
I didn’t expect to run into Mother Shen.
Look at the old lady standing next to her.
Shen Chaoxi's calves were trembling.
The old lady’s ruthless methods in her previous life are still vivid in my mind.
Her feet seemed to be nailed down and she couldn't move forward at all.
I was still worrying about how to get that notebook.
Now someone actually gave me an opportunity!
Shen Chaoxi's tongue tip touched the roots of his teeth.
Shen Qingran, I just want to see whether you want your biological mother or the notebook.
I thought that if I could get that notebook, I could get close to that person.
Shen Chaoxi's breathing felt a little faster.
It seems like a bright future is just around the corner.
Looking at the woman who was picking clothes in the corner of the mall, she walked away happily.
He picked up a stone from the side of the road and followed him.
As the woman turned and passed through the alley, she heard a scream from inside.
