In the military sanatorium, Mr. Xu is a special patient.
He can take care of himself and has a mild temper, but he is very resistant to visits from his family.
During the rare times when she was sick, she would see Xu Qing or 꺵꽬. Because of this, Xu Qing came less and less often.
The task of regular visits was Ji Fangshu's turn.
"Grandma Xu likes to sit and daydream and read some books recently. Maybe it's because of the recent heat and her appetite is a bit poor..." The nurse was talking to Ji Fangshu when Grandma Xu came in from outside.
Beauty lies in bones, not in skin. Ms. Xu is very elegant and one can tell at a glance that she was definitely a great beauty when she was young.
"Why are you here?" She sat down on the stool and looked at her daughter-in-law.
Upon seeing this, the nurse tactfully turned around and went out, closing the door as she went.
Ji Fangshu then said, "Mom, I want to take you back to live with me for a while this time."
"No need," Mr. Xu refused directly, "It's not a festival, I'm fine living here."
Ji Fangshu's eyes flickered. It would be fine normally, but this time, without Mr. Xu's help, it would be impossible to accomplish this.
Without beating around the bush, he said directly, "Mom, if I knew anything about your little sister when I took you back this time."
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Xu's originally indifferent expression changed instantly.
He said in a cold voice: "What else do you want her to do for you? You forced her away, and now you want to get her back. Where else do you want to see?"
Asking two questions in a row, my face would have turned red if it were someone else.
But Ji Fangshu was not ordinary. She said, "Mom, don't get excited. We are brothers and sisters. We are connected even if our bones are broken. We just want to recognize her now."
She handed over the photo and said, "Don't you want to see my little sister after not seeing her for so many years?"
The girl in the black and white photo had her hair loose and a serene smile. It was the young Xu Mei.
Mr. Xu stared at the photo closely, his eyes seemed clear, yet crazy.
She stretched out her hand tremblingly, as if wanting to touch it.
Ji Fangshu was delighted and quickly handed the photo to her again.
But unfortunately, everything we expected did not happen.
Just before he touched the photo, Mr. Xu woke up as if from a dream. He turned his hand, grabbed something nearby and threw it at her, "Get out! Get out now!"
The mental behavior is extremely abnormal.
Ji Fangshu hid in embarrassment, but fortunately the nurse outside the ward was quickly alarmed and rushed over.
Watching them treating Mr. Xu, she quickly withdrew, still feeling frightened.
I thought since I haven't seen Xu Mei for a long time, Xu Laoji should be very cooperative. But why does she look like she is extremely resistant to this?
If this is the case, how long will it take for Jiang Yuman to make sense?
Ji Fangshu was extremely irritable.
After returning, she told Xu Qing the truth.
Xu Qing's face also looked unhappy. For so many years, his mother had always blamed him and his father for his little sister's running away from home. She was only willing to let her come back during the Chinese New Year for the sake of her grandson.
This time, she didn't even ask about Xu Mei's whereabouts, and directly drove Ji Fangshu out.
It would undoubtedly be difficult to use her as a breakthrough point.
After thinking it over, he said, "Let me discuss this with Dad. Don't do anything on your side for now."
Ji Fangshu agreed readily.
With Xu Qing's words, she felt relieved.
After all, what Mr. Xu wants to do can usually be accomplished.
…
Ji Fangshu went to the sanatorium for a while and rested at home before going out.
As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw a few people standing opposite the Wei family.
Looking closely, one of them was Jiang Yuman.
In the past, Ji Fangshu would feel somewhat uncomfortable, but it was different now.
After knowing that Jiang Yuman was her niece, she looked at her more favorably and even took the initiative to greet her, "Xiaoqing, you brought someone home again?"
If she hadn't promised Xu Qing, she would have told Jiang Yuman right away that she was her aunt.
Seeing Ji Fangshu's smiling face, Wei Qing felt that she looked a little strange today, but still nodded.
"right."
"I heard that the editor of Jianjun Newspaper came to the Tenth Division Workers' Corps again."
Ji Fangshu looked at Jiang Yuman again, "Teacher Yuman, I haven't congratulated you yet. Once the newspaper publishes it, you will be famous."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuman and the others looked at each other.
Did she forget to take medicine when she went out today? She usually likes to make sarcastic remarks, but today she actually broke the rules and praised their ten-member team.
I'm afraid the sun will rise from the west!
Ji Fangshu didn't care what they thought. She talked a few more words to the Jianjun Daily before getting into the car.
Seeing the car turn and leave, Fu Haitang hurriedly asked, "Was she really praising me just now, or was she just pretending to praise me?"
"It must be a false compliment," Wei Qing thought without hesitation, "Usually she would look down on us, how could she be so kind to praise us?"
"But..." Wen Yan beside her said carefully, "I think her eyes are shining when she looks at Teacher Yuman."
The implication is that it doesn't sound like false boasting.
It is easy to distinguish between kindness and malice. The way she looked at Jiang Yuman was obviously different from before.
"How can it not shine?" Wei Qing curled her lips, "The Jiaoyang Dance Troupe doesn't even have a good scriptwriter, so they must be thinking of poaching people."
The more he talked, the more worried he became. He quickly pulled Jiang Yuman's hand and shook it left and right, "Teacher, you must not go to the Jiaoyang Song and Dance Troupe."
"Don't worry, I won't go." Jiang Yuman's instinct told her not to have any contact with the Xu family.
She had never thought about it before when the Jiaoyang Song and Dance Troupe was in the limelight. Now that they were embroiled in scandal, it was even more impossible.
"That's good!" Wei Qing was instantly happy.
He quickly opened the door and walked in with a few people. "My grandfather is not at home today. I asked Granny Xu to prepare a lot of food so that we can celebrate."
Wen Yan and Fu Haitang were a little confused, and they were not in the right state at all. "What are we celebrating?"
Didn't she say she was coming to the Wei family to see the fish her grandfather raised? How did it turn into a celebration?
Wei Qing subconsciously glanced at Jiang Yuman and said stubbornly, "Isn't it okay to celebrate that Teacher Yuman is on the newspaper again?"
"That's something we should celebrate!" Wen Yan nodded repeatedly.
Only Fu Haitang felt it was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
Only Jiang Yuman looked at Wei Qing and understood.
Yesterday, the 10th Division reported on Qiao Yunshen's case. His situation was very serious. Not only would he be expelled from the army, but he would also be sent to a farm.
Seeing what happened to Qiao Yunshen, Wei Qing actually wanted to thank her, but she couldn't find a suitable reason.
Fortunately, she understood.
After a few days of eating, we sat on the sofa and talked.
Wen Yan and Fu Haitang went to the backyard to watch the fish. Wei Qing looked at Jiang Yuman and suddenly asked, "Teacher Yuman, after Uncle Fu's promotion is approved, will you return to Beijing?"
