At the end of March, the busy spring plowing was over, and Su Jin still had three days of vacation. Lu Shiyi came back from training and saw her lying on the bed covered with a quilt, revealing her pink shoulders, her little face facing the window, her little mouth slightly open as she exhaled.
The autumn harvest was over yesterday, and Lu Shiyi couldn't control himself and took her to bed again.
"Wife, let's get up." Lu Shiyi placed a warm towel in the basin and called Su Jin softly, "Didn't you say we were going to the hospital today?"
Starting from the second day of spring plowing, Su Jin felt a little sleepy and had a poor appetite, so Lu Shiyi wanted to take Su Jin to the outpatient clinic.
Due to spring plowing, except for the normal training team members, the rest of the people are working in the fields.
"Ayi, I want to sleep a little longer and go after I wake up!" Su Jin knew that she had been too sleepy these days, probably because she was too tired from spring plowing.
Lu Shiyi tucked the quilt gently and said, "I have to go to a meeting soon. I put breakfast in the pot to heat it up for you. When you get up, go to the pot yourself."
Su Jin nodded and fell asleep. Lu Shiyi glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already 7:30.
He put his breakfast in the pot and went out to work.
Lin Zitao happened to come out from next door, and Lu Shiyi went up to greet Lin Zitao.
"Lao Lin, I'll be back after the meeting to take care of Xiao Jin. You can help me lead the training." Lu Shiyi has been going to the private plot alone these days. The military wives are concerned about Xiao Jin's health, and Lu Shiyi admits that she's feeling a little unwell. "I was busy with spring plowing a while ago, so I'm going to take her to the outpatient clinic today."
The situation in the county hospital is somewhat chaotic. Those capable doctors have been transferred to remote villages to work as village doctors, and the doctors who remain are just filling in the gaps.
"Don't go to the meeting today. I can tell you when I come back, okay?" Lin Zitao heard that Su Jin was going to see a doctor and thought about asking Lu Shiyi to take a leave.
"They've repeatedly ordered us to be there. If I don't go, they'll say I'm disobeying orders." Lu Shiyi has the Lu family behind him, and some people act according to his wishes, but even such a big Lu family has rivals.
Lin Zitao sighed: "When will it be a good time?"
"Silence!" Lu Shiyi glanced around. "From the moment you leave home, you must be careful with your words and actions. As the political commissar, you should understand the situation better than I do."
Lin Zitao welcomed the propaganda team from above four days ago. He accompanied them for several days in strolling around the county town and went into the mountains to hunt. They had meat dishes, white rice and white steamed buns every day.
When Su Jin woke up again, she saw Lu Shiyi mopping the floor in casual clothes. She sat up and took a look, then changed into her pajamas.
"Ayi, when did you come back?" Su Jin asked softly.
"Come back after the meeting. I've talked to Lao Lin and will take you to the outpatient clinic today." Lu Shiyi accompanied Su Jin to have breakfast and held her hand as they walked to the outpatient clinic together.
Passing by the training ground, the team members kept looking at Lu Shiyi out of the corner of their eyes. They were surprised that Lu could have such a gentle expression.
Lin Zitao watched as the team members stared at Lu Shiyi in a daze, each of them instinctively doing the training movements with their arms folded across their chests.
"Shi Yi, go to the outpatient clinic quickly and don't delay today's training." Lin Zitao picked up the loudspeaker beside him and shouted at Lu Shiyi.
The team members' thoughts were returned to them, and Su Jin's face flushed.
Lu Shiyi happily took her hand and walked quickly forward. On both sides of the asphalt road, peach blossoms were in full bloom, and petals were fluttering in the spring breeze.
"Wife, look at this place, isn't it beautiful?" After Lu Shiyi came to the yard, he thought it was the most beautiful. "The yard of my home in the imperial capital has magnolias and sycamore trees on both sides of the road."
The two were walking and talking when five soldiers came towards them. The leader stared at Su Jin's little face, as if he was looking at someone through her.
"Commander Lu, where are we going?" The leading man was over 40 years old. He had a bad reputation in the military camp and even stole the wife of his subordinate.
"He's accompanying his wife to see a doctor. Is Commander Wei going to the training ground?" Lu Shiyi stepped sideways to block Su Jin. Commander Wei's fiery gaze made Lu Shiyi angry.
Su Jin felt uncomfortable being stared at by these eyes, so he searched for ancient medicine in the pharmacy in the space, determined to avenge himself.
"I'm checking the training progress of the people below, not calling your wife out to see." Chief Wei felt that Director Su Jin had his aesthetic taste. Lu Shiyi's background was too strong, so even if he liked him, he couldn't show his feelings. "I'll tell your father later that his daughter-in-law is a good choice."
Lu Shiyi looked at the other party with cold eyes. Lu Shicheng reminded Lu Shiyi that Chief Wei had become the deputy head of the propaganda team and had already bullied many people below.
"My wife is not feeling well. Let's wait until next time." Lu Shiyi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and held her right hand with his right hand. She wrote something in his palm.
I'll throw the medicine, you hold your breath!
These six short words brought a slight smile to Lu Shiyi's face.
Chief Wei thought that Lu Shiyi was afraid. On the surface, they were a propaganda team, but in fact they were investigating the situation in various places. The reports written by his subordinates could determine the life and death of a camp.
At this moment, Chief Wei was thinking about how to bring the person back, or at least let Lu Shiyi deliver the person personally.
She used Lu Shiyi's body as a shield, waved her hand, held her breath, and a gust of wind blew, and the medicine powder was scattered in the air.
"Ayi, I feel so uncomfortable. Let's go see a doctor first." Su Jin was not in a hurry that he would come to cause trouble. After today, these people would probably be dismissed.
Lu Shiyi nodded and took Su Jin away.
Su Jin has prepared a lot of ancient medicines in the space. These medicines can protect themselves. Today's medicine is Chunyao Powder, which is an enhanced version of the medicine. When the powder is in the air for 3 seconds, people within a radius of 5 miles will inhale the medicine, and the medicinal properties will evaporate within 5 seconds.
"Ayi, you will probably be busy tonight." Su Jin whispered to Lu Shiyi while no one was around.
"Okay, don't be soft-hearted when you meet these people, and make sure to protect your own safety." Lu Shiyi warned Su Jin and told him about what Chief Wei and his men had done.
In courtyards everywhere, many girls were targeted. Some of them succeeded in being raped, while others escaped because of the protection of their families.
"Ayi, have the patrol team hold a meeting with them tonight." Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi, "Are those people staying in a room with two people?"
"Except for Chief Wei, the others all share a room with two people. I heard that Chief Wei found a goddaughter in the art troupe." Lu Shiyi disdained these people's tricks, "That person is also quite good-looking."
The two came to the outpatient clinic, where a military doctor was applying medicine to a female soldier. Lu Shiyi leaned over and whispered in her ear that this person was Chief Wei's goddaughter.
Su Jin looked over in surprise and found that the female soldier's face was pale and sweat was beading on her forehead.
With his sleeves rolled up and his arms covered with bruises, Lu Shiyi sat at the door, looking at the opposite wall, while Su Jin used the door as a cover to watch the gossip.
