"My mother..." Shi Ye held Li Xiu Lian's hand tightly, tears falling from his eyes.
Li Xiulian was stunned: "What happened to your mother? What happened?"
Although she knew that Shi had also come to the Northwest, she had never paid attention to the affairs of Yandu. She just thought that Sheng Wei had thought of such a marriage and specially asked Shi to come to the Northwest. But looking at her appearance, was there any hidden story here?
"Aunt Xiulian, something happened in my family. My parents...my parents are all gone." Shi also sobbed and choked, his tears falling on the table, splashing small water droplets, his grief was obvious.
Li Xiulian was stunned by the news for a long time, and asked in shock: "How is it possible? How could such a thing happen?"
Shi also shook his head and picked out the things about Yandu to tell Li Xiulian, emphasizing the portrayal of herself as a lonely person. She was no longer a "daughter of an official family" but a pitiful orphan. When she came to the northwest, the only family she could rely on was the Zhou family.
After listening to her, Li Xiulian came to her senses and found it difficult to accept this heavy news.
Xia Sheng and Sheng Wei are dead, and Shi has come to the northwest with this marriage proposal. If the Zhou family doesn't care about her...
Li Xiulian frowned, her eyes looking somewhat sad. She felt bad looking at the grief-stricken Shiye.
She stood up, walked around the corner of the table, and patted Makiya's head gently: "Okay, don't cry, don't cry..."
"Aunt Xiulian..." Shiye reached out and hugged Li Xiulian's waist, still sobbing softly. Such suppressed crying made Li Xiulian's eyes red: "Xiaoye, it's hard for you, coming to the northwest alone."
"I won't suffer anymore as long as Aunt Xiu Lian is around." Shi also looked up at Li Xiu Lian with an intimate and admiring gaze.
Her climbing up the ladder made Li Xiulian suddenly come to her senses. Thinking about her son's girlfriend, she became worried again.
In a moment, Li Xiulian thought of the rumors that had been circulating in the corps for the past two days. She lowered her eyes to look at Shi Ye and asked hesitantly, "Xiao Ye, tell me honestly, what's going on between you and Battalion Commander Xiao?"
She didn't mean to poke holes in anyone's feelings, but the rumors were so widespread and so well-founded that it was hard for her not to be suspicious.
Since Xiao Fengnian took in Xia Yun and Shi Ye, there is no guarantee that they would not have some thoughts. Xiao Yue is a popular figure in the Northwest. There is no telling how many leaders have taken a fancy to him and want to recruit him as their son-in-law.
Compared with the Zhou family that was demoted in the early years, the Xiao family is definitely a better choice. If Shi also has some ideas, it is normal. This is better. It helps her solve the problem in disguise. She can add a dowry to her instead of marrying her as a daughter-in-law. After Yun Ce has someone he likes, this marriage is no longer a promise, but a pressure.
Hearing this, Shiye's expression changed drastically, and he turned pale as paper: "Aunt Xiulian, how come even you..."
She lowered her head, her figure suddenly became lonely, and she said bitterly: "Captain Xiao took care of me because of Uncle Xiao's words and specially arranged a single dormitory for me. I didn't expect a fire to break out. I inhaled too much smoke, so he carried me to the infirmary. People saw it and spread these words." After saying that, Shi also looked up at Li Xiulian: "But Aunt Xiulian, others don't know, but you don't know? I am engaged, and I have never said a few words to Captain Xiao since I was a child."
As he spoke, Shiye lowered his head again and laughed at himself: "Aunt Xiulian, I know you don't want to acknowledge me as your daughter-in-law, but it doesn't matter, you are still my Aunt Xiulian, I'm leaving first."
She let go of the arms that were hugging Li Xiu Lian, stood up and walked out, looking like she had been abandoned.
“1…2…”
"Xiao Ye! You misunderstood me, wait!" Shi Ye's arm was grabbed by Li Xiu Lian, and she turned around and threw herself into the latter's arms, crying, "Aunt Xiu Lian, you are the only one I have now, can you please not leave me?"
Li Xiulian patted Makiya's back and nodded: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Auntie is here."
In the end, she still cared about the friendship she had with Sheng Wei. Now Shi was also a little girl. She had come to the Northwest. Even if she didn't become her daughter-in-law, she should take better care of her. It was just...how should she tell her about the marriage?
Shiya's crying voice was heard outside the door. Zhang Bin was startled and pushed the door open, and saw two people hugging each other.
He was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Why are you crying? Is it impossible to stay in the infirmary? Director Li, this..."
Li Xiulian then remembered that she had something else to do. After thinking for a while, she said, "Comrade Shiye graduated from a medical school and has experience. The infirmary is currently short of staff. How about this, let her stay and become a nurse to learn and gain some experience."
Having already decided to take care of the daughter of an old friend, Li Xiu Lian naturally would not be stingy with a job.
She wasn't saying anything nonsense. The work in the infirmary is rigorous and there aren't many people with this ability. It just so happens that Shi also graduated from a medical school and is a professional. She just needs to accumulate some experience and get more training. It can't be considered as taking a back door.
Shiye's eyes changed, and he hurriedly said, "Aunt Xiulian, can I stay with you and be your assistant? You are so good at surgery, I really admire you. I know I don't have much experience now, but I want to learn more from you, and in the future I also want to become a good comrade and a good doctor who serves the people and saves the dying and the wounded. Just like you."
Shi Ye kept flattering Li Xiu Lian one sentence after another, looking at her eagerly.
Between 30% and 10%, three pounds of cornmeal and ten years of surgical experience, she would definitely choose the latter!!
She had laid so much groundwork and shed so many tears, but she didn't want three pounds of cornmeal.
Li Xiulian looked a little hesitant. After all, she didn't know what level Shi Ye was at, and she couldn't be careless about the surgery. Besides, she already had an assistant who had been with her for two years, and they already had a tacit understanding.
Seeing Li Xiulian's hesitation, Shi also hurriedly said, "Aunt Xiulian, um... is he also working in the infirmary? I remember that he seems to have inherited your medical talent and graduated from a medical university. I was wondering if..."
Before Shiye could finish, Li Xiulian said, "How about this, Xiaoye, you just stay by my side and learn from me."
[Ding——Trigger event——Stay in the medical office, become a doctor's assistant, and assist the doctor in performing surgery. ]
【Reward: Ten years of surgical experience.】
A lot of things suddenly crowded into Shiya's mind, with rules and regulations, clear and distinct.
Although he hated the shackles of the system, he couldn't help but sigh that technology and hard work really saved him a lot of trouble.
"Thank you Aunt Xiu Lian, I will do my best!" Shi Ye smiled at Li Xiu Lian, who had a complicated expression, and looked very well-behaved.
The human heart is unpredictable. After experiencing her past life, she has accumulated many methods to win over people's hearts.
When the other party is unlikely to agree to your real request, you should make a more extreme request that is more difficult for the other party to agree to. After weighing the two options, your real request will become a trivial matter. This is a strategy of making further demands.
However, Li Xiulian's agreement further confirmed that something was going on with her "fiancé".
