Chapter 228 Only the One Knows the Truth



Zhu Xiaohui pursed her lips and looked at Doctor Su with a mournful expression.

Unbeknownst to them, Dr. Su was still explaining to Yingzi how to dig for cordyceps.

"Let me tell you, I dug for cordyceps last year. There's a lot to know about digging for cordyceps. By the way, you haven't prepared knee pads yet, have you?"

Never mind, I'll prepare it for you!

"Give me the hoe, I'll go get my food. After I eat, we can go dig for caterpillar fungus."

Turning around, I was startled to see Zhu Xiaohui.

"Wow, Comrade Zhu, you're still here?"

Seeing his attitude, Zhu Xiaohui felt resentful.

If it weren't for what happened that day, would I have bothered to be so eager to please them?

But this person kept urging me to get treatment.

"Comrade Zhu, I just want to tell you that I am not sick!"

Dr. Su shook his head helplessly.

"It's really bad to ignore your illness and refuse to seek medical help!"

Dr. Qian rolled his eyes. Didn't he realize that Comrade Zhu wanted to get close to him?

There's definitely a reason why he's still single.

"Comrade Zhu, don't waste your time here. I advise you to go and get treatment as soon as possible."

Otherwise, when he sees you, he'll only urge you to get medical treatment and won't think of anything else.

Upon hearing what Dr. Qian said, Zhu Xiaohui's face flushed red and then turned pale.

Hong knew what Dr. Qian meant.

Bai felt he had never been so humiliated in his life.

Zhu Xiaohui bit her lip and looked at Doctor Qian:

"Dr. Qian, could you please tell him for me that I'm really not sick, it was just an accident?"

Dr. Qian shook his head.

"I can't, I don't know if you're really not sick."

What if you're sick but report that you're not? Wouldn't that be deceiving my brother?

So you should get a certificate from a major hospital; that would be more convincing.

Seeing that neither of them would listen to reason, Zhu Xiaohui had no choice but to leave.

Thinking to myself, do I really have to go to a big hospital to get a certificate?

In order to regain her position in the performing arts troupe, she was given a certificate.

As Zhu Xiaohui left, Dr. Qian crossed his arms and leaned against the door.

"Tsk tsk, I say, Brother Su, you've managed to nip all your luck with the ladies in the bud."

You didn't like her?

Don't tell me you didn't realize that woman wanted to pursue you.

The Soviet military doctor rolled his eyes at him.

"Stop talking nonsense. She's a female soldier from a cultural troupe in Beijing. She's beautiful and talented. Why would she be interested in me?"

Dr. Qian nodded.

"There's one more thing, he has an illness."

Is it possible that she developed feelings for you because you took the initiative to save her on stage that day?

Wait a minute, I also volunteered to save people.

Did she know I had a boyfriend, so she settled for you instead?

"Get lost, you're the worst!"

I'm a perfectly respectable young man. Anyway, no matter what, if that girl comes along again, I'll stay away from her.

He tapped Yingzi on the head as he spoke.

"You stay away from her too, you hear me?"

Yingzi nodded, her little face full of anticipation, and said:

"Could you ask around for me next time if Brother Song has replied to me?"

"Old Song, sigh!"

Okay, I'll ask him about it when I write him a letter tomorrow after I've dug up some cordyceps.

You've written him two letters; he should have replied to you by now.

Yingzi pursed her lips, tears welling up in her big eyes.

Seeing her like this, Dr. Su patted her little shoulder.

"Comrade Yingzi, you're not going to start crying, are you?"

Yingzi sniffed and shook her head.

"I didn't!"

...

Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting had just finished eating when they saw four people standing at the door.

Dr. Su and Yingzi, Dr. Qian and Zhang Yingchun.

What are you doing?

"Battalion Commander Zhou, Sister-in-law Jiang, we've come to ask you to dig for caterpillar fungus!"

Jiang Wenwan glanced at the four of them and nodded.

"Okay! We've just finished eating, let's go now."

"Oh, oh, oh, off to dig for cordyceps."

Xiao Zhouye jumped three feet high with great excitement.

"Great! Once I dig up the cordyceps, I can sell them for money and then I can buy lots of sugar!"

Uh, he paused when he mentioned sugar, then turned to Jiang Wenwan with a fawning smile.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, I misspoke. It wasn't about buying lots of candy."

"Oh, not buying lots of candy, then what are you buying?"

Xiao Zhouye had a flash of inspiration and immediately said:

"I need to buy pencils and notebooks so I can study hard."

I'll strive to be number one in the exams next time.

Hearing his confident promises, Jiang Wenwan actually believed his lies.

But let him spend his money however he wants; after all, a human child like that can't save money anyway.

Besides, with his small stature, how much cordyceps could he possibly dig up? He could only sell it for a dollar or two at most.

Jiang Wenwan didn't think much of him, and the group immediately rode their horses toward the Gona Snow Mountain.

Zhou Ye and Zhou Yunting rode a horse.

Jiang Wenwan rode a horse with Yingzi.

The Soviet military doctor rode one horse himself.

The military doctor Qian and Zhang Yingchun were also riding horses.

These two are still dating and not married yet, so it's not like they can't ride a horse in public.

It wasn't a good thing, so they each rode a horse.

The group headed towards the snow-capped mountains to dig for cordyceps.

Upon arriving at the destination, Jiang Wenwan took out the wolfskin knee pads she had prepared in advance.

Both Zhou Yunting and Zhou Ye had their gear; watch as they started putting it on.

Jiang Wenwan took out another pair from her bag and gave them to Yingzi.
