Chapter 89
Xu Zhao raised his eyelids: "Didn't I tell you?"
Qi Zhengming picked the reddest apple from the bag he brought, wiped it on his clothes casually, and asked while eating: "What did you tell me?"
The two looked at each other. Just as Xu Zhao was about to speak, Jiang Suihan appeared at the door.
Jiang Huihan saw a man she didn't recognize appear in the ward. She guessed that he should be Xu Zhao's friend, so she nodded and smiled. Chenchen also looked at the stranger in front of him curiously.
Her hands were very tired after carrying Chenchen all the way back. The family had taken good care of the little guy since he was born and had never stopped feeding him with milk powder. Once he finished drinking, the Xu family and relatives and friends would find a way to send him new milk powder. The baby grew from a little boy of more than six kilograms to fifteen or sixteen kilograms, and it was very heavy to hold him in her arms for so long.
Qi Zhengming looked at the soft and sticky little dumpling with shining eyes. He ran up to Chenchen happily, wanting to get his hands on it but not knowing how to start. He looked a little stupid.
Last year, he failed to complete the task assigned by his parents. When he returned home for the Chinese New Year, he was forced by his mother to go on blind dates, no less than seven times. He even met three blind dates in one day, as if he was rushing to a market.
While others were celebrating the New Year happily, he was either on a blind date or on the way to a blind date. He had a miserable year and felt like he had no desire to live. As soon as the holiday was over, he immediately packed his bags and rushed back to the army without stopping for a moment, as he really couldn't face his old mother's resentful eyes.
There is always a way out, fate will come to you.
Three months ago, a female military doctor came to the army. He fell in love with the girl and pursued her for two months before finally getting her. After he got married, he thought that other brothers had already married and had children, while he was far behind, so he couldn't help but feel anxious and also wanted to get married and have children.
The soft and cute little dumpling is so well-behaved and fun, who doesn’t like it?
Jiang Suihan saw Qi Zhengming was envious of Chenchen, and said with a smile: "You can pick him up, he just ate and is very happy."
Qi Zhengming widened his eyes and rubbed his hands: "Is it really possible?"
Little cutie, uncle, here I come!
After getting Jiang Suihan's affirmative answer, Qi Zhengming bent down and slowly and carefully picked up Chenchen. The child was full of milk fragrance, soft and cute, and holding him in his hands was like holding a ball of cotton. His whole body was stiff and he didn't dare to use force for fear of hurting the child.
Seeing Qi Zhengming looking as if he was facing a formidable enemy, Jiang Suihan held back her smile and taught him how to place his hands so that the child would feel comfortable.
Chenchen is a brave child. Even though it is the first time he sees Qi Zhengming, the child is not afraid at all. He grins happily with drool running down the corners of his mouth.
Qi Zhengming took a handkerchief and gently wiped Chenchen clean, his eyes always fixed on Chenchen.
It's so cute that it's drooling!
At this moment, he was deeply jealous of Xu Zhao. This guy had always been introverted and cold, but he could give birth to such a cute and beautiful child!
It must be my brother and sister-in-law’s credit, and has nothing to do with Xu Zhao.
At this time, Xu Zhao had no idea that his good comrade was secretly criticizing him. He sat on the hospital bed, enjoying the feeding service from his wife.
Jiang Suihan didn't pack him some noodles with soybean paste. He had just had surgery and needed a light diet, so vegetarian noodles were just right for him.
Qi Zhengming turned around and saw, my goodness, this guy Xu Zhao is so shameless!
It’s just that one arm is broken, the other hand is still fine, why can’t he eat and needs someone to feed him?
The injuries he suffered before were much more serious than this time, but he was still able to be self-reliant and eat and drink, right?
You act one way in front of others and another way in front of your wife. You should not be called Xu Zhao, but Xu Xinji.
What a scheming man!
The two of them naturally didn't know that Qi Zhengming had been complaining crazily in just a few seconds.
"Oh, Deputy Captain Xu is treated well! There are people to serve you food and drinks. People who don't know would think you have broken arms and legs and can't move."
The sarcastic tone could be heard by all the four people present, except Chenchen who was enjoying himself.
Xu Zhao swallowed the noodles in his mouth and glanced at him calmly: "Do you have any objections?"
Qi Zhengming twisted his lips: "What can I say? Your sister-in-law came all the way here, taking care of the children and taking care of you, a patient. She's been working so hard, and you actually have the nerve to ask your sister-in-law to feed you noodles. Xu Zhao, you've changed."
Without even looking up, Xu Zhao asked, "I'll just assume you're envious and jealous."
Qi Zhengming immediately jumped up and down. Fortunately, he remembered that he was holding Chenchen in his arms and did not throw the child out. "Why would I envy you? You start daydreaming as soon as it gets dark? What's so great about you that I should envy you?"
Xu Zhao said slowly: "I have a wife, do you? I have a son, do you?"
These two simple questions were a big blow to Qi Zhengming. He gritted his teeth and said, "You win."
No, he must go back and persuade his girlfriend to agree to marry him. He is already far behind. If he doesn't work harder to catch up, he will never be able to catch up.
Jiang Suihan was speechless as she looked at the pair of good comrades in front of her. It was absolutely true that a man remains a boy until he dies. Even in this kind of situation, they had to fight to win or lose. A three-year-old child in kindergarten was more sensible than them.
Jiang Suihan knew Xu Zhao's appetite very well. One bowl of noodles was not enough for him. "I also bought two steamed buns. Do you want some?"
Two steamed buns, one for Xu Zhao and one for Qi Zhengming. He hurried to the hospital as soon as he got off the train. He had a quick lunch on the train and didn't have dinner. He was extremely hungry, otherwise he wouldn't have eaten the apple to fill his stomach.
Xu Zhao is from the north and likes to eat pasta. Sometimes his family would make some steamed buns and dumplings. Chenchen had seen it before. When he saw Qi Zhengming eating a steamed bun, the suspicious transparent liquid hanging from the corner of the little guy's mouth flowed more and more happily. He kicked his little hands and feet, trying to snatch the steamed bun from Qi Zhengming's hand.
Qi Zhengming quickly raised his hand and asked Jiang Suihan: "Can Chenchen eat steamed buns?"
Jiang Suihan: "He ate some noodles at night, but I didn't let him eat it. He ate too much and got indigestion."
The steamed buns from the state-owned restaurant were made with solid ingredients and were genuine large buns. Qi Zhengming stuffed a few bites into his mouth and said incoherently, "No more."
Watching the steamed bun disappear, Chenchen first stared with disbelief in his eyes, then his mouth pursed, looking like a pitiful little thing who was about to cry.
Qi Zhengming hurriedly handed the child back to Jiang Suihan, and explained to Chenchen: "It's not that your uncle doesn't let you eat, it's your mother who doesn't let you. If you want to cry, you should cry to your mother."
Jiang Suihan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She hugged Chenchen and coaxed him. When the child saw his mother, he forgot about the steamed buns and was only concerned with playing with his mother. The whole ward was filled with the child's clear and happy laughter.
The more Qi Zhengming looked at him, the more he envied him. He really wanted to take Chenchen home to raise him for a few days. He said with emotion, "You are so lucky."
A lovely wife and young children, a warm and cozy home for his wife and children, which man doesn't want to live such a life. .
Uncle Xu arranged a marriage for his son without consulting his son. The brothers who knew the inside story couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for Xu Zhao, fearing that he would marry someone who would cause trouble. Who could have thought that things would turn out differently and this matchmaking would actually end up being the right one.
Xu Zhao nodded very naturally, his eyes fell on the mother and son. Jiang Suihan gently pressed her forehead against Chenchen's, making Chenchen laugh non-stop.
After half an hour, Chenchen yawned twice, his eyes half open and half closed.
There is a guesthouse near the hospital. Xu Zhao was worried that it would be unsafe at night, so he asked Qi Zhengming to take Jiang Suihan there.
After Qi Zhengming sent the person away, he left. The army had its own guesthouse with relatively cheap prices. In addition to visiting Xu Zhao, he had other things to do in Yun City.
Jiang Suihan asked for a single room. The hygiene was okay, except that the quilt was a little yellow. It was probably because it had been used for a long time, not because it was dirty. When she thought about how many people had slept on this bed before, she felt a little uncomfortable all over and wanted to change the sheets and quilt cover.
I didn't bring much luggage, so I simply packed it up, went to the first floor to find the aunt on duty, gave her some candies, asked for some hot water and a basin, and simply wiped myself.
Early the next morning, Jiang Suihan was woken up by Chenchen as usual.
After having a child, my sleeping and sleeping schedule is no longer my own. Everything has to follow the child's schedule. Chenchen goes to bed early every night and wakes up early in the morning.
After waking up, the little guy first opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for a few minutes, then slowly buried his head in his mother's arms, looking for the granary. Occasionally, Jiang Suhan woke up and fed the child in a daze, but more often the child was self-reliant. After drinking the milk, he became energetic and woke up his mother, asking her to play with him.
Jiang Suihan was yawning and closing her eyes, her body twisting and turning, as if she was about to fall back onto the bed in a second.
Chenchen slapped the bed with his little hands, seeming a little angry, "Come and accompany me."
After waking up, Jiang Suihan lay beside Chenchen, her nose touching Chenchen's little nose: "Your father said you are a little debt collector, and he is right. Can't you let mom sleep a little longer? Look at mom's two panda eyes, why don't you feel sorry for mom?"
She needs some time to adapt to the unfamiliar environment, otherwise she will suffer from insomnia. She didn't sleep well last night. Her body was very tired, but her mind wouldn't let her sleep. She tossed and turned in bed for a long time before falling asleep, and was woken up early by Chenchen. Now her head is dizzy.
Chenchen thought his mother was joking with him, and he laughed so hard that his saliva sprayed all over his mother's face.
Jiang Suihan wiped her face speechlessly and pinched Chenchen's little face: "Are you a dirty kid? Mommy doesn't like dirty kids. Don't spit at people in the future. Do you understand?"
Chenchen smiled, revealing a few tiny teeth, and babbled in baby talk that only he could understand. After talking for a long time, there was no response from his mother. The little guy tilted his head and a helpless expression appeared on his face.
Jiang Suihan was also happy. She kissed the little guy and got up to clean up.
It was already past eight o'clock when we arrived at the state-owned restaurant. Most workers went to work at seven or eight o'clock, so there were not many customers in the restaurant.
Zhong Jing was not among the waiters on duty today. Jiang Suihan guessed that she might be on holiday. The breakfast served today was written on the wooden board at the door, and there were fried dough sticks. I haven't eaten them for a long time and suddenly I wanted to eat them.
She asked the waiter, and was told that the fried dough sticks were all sold out, and there were only some steamed buns and steamed buns left. Jiang Suihan felt secretly sorry, and ordered two meat buns, two vegetable buns, and a bowl of pork rib noodles.
In the ward, Xu Zhao was waiting anxiously for breakfast to finally arrive.
Jiang Suihan did not eat at the state-owned restaurant. She packed up everything and brought it to the hospital to eat with Xu Zhao.
Today Xu Zhao did not pretend to be sick. He made his own breakfast. While eating, he did not forget to look at Chenchen. He saw that Chenchen had moved to the edge of the bed again and was about to fall, so he quickly pulled the child back.
"Has Chenchen had his milk?"
Jiang Suihan: "He ate a little, he's not hungry yet, I'll make him some milk later."
She broke open the meat buns and saw that there was fat in the meat filling. She picked it out and put it on the lid of the lunch box, and put the whole thing together for Xu Zhao to eat.
Xu Zhao: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Jiang Suihan asked him, "Is it obvious?"
Xu Zhao nodded: "It couldn't be more obvious."
She had fair skin, two big dark circles under her eyes, and her face looked haggard.
"I'm not used to the bed and quilt in the hostel. I'm fine. I'll get used to it after a few days."
Jiang Suihan was sleep-deprived and had a poor appetite, so she ate a vegetable bun, a few mouthfuls of noodles and half a meat bun. When she was full, she went out to get some hot water to make milk for Chenchen.
Chenchen opened his big, black and bright eyes and looked at his father, drooling unconsciously at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes revealed his desire for food.
Xu Zhao glanced at the door and picked up a noodle for Chenchen. Chenchen put the noodle soaked in soup into his mouth. His eyes lit up and he danced with joy.
He tapped the little guy's nose and smiled, "Little foodie."
I learned this word from Jiang Suhan. She sometimes calls her younger brother a foodie, which is a very descriptive name.
Chenchen finished his noodles and looked at his father with blinking eyes.
Xu Zhao raised his lips: "Still want to eat?"
Chenchen seemed to understand and moved his little head.
Hurry up, I want to eat more!
Xu Zhao glanced at the door guiltily and fed Chenchen some noodles. Chenchen waved his little hands and smiled brightly.
