"In the past, Feng Shishi always followed me in the compound. Li Ruicai once challenged me to a fight, but after being beaten up by Uncle Li, he no longer dared to come in front of me."

"Years ago, I went to Uncle Li to help Shen Junqian, and he knew about this."

"He didn't have the courage to write to me at first. Because Uncle Li helped us years ago, Li Rui heard that Feng Shishi was ill, so he wrote this letter in Uncle Li's name, asking me to help take care of Feng Shishi."

He Ting showed the letter to Lu Baiwei.

Every word Li Ruicai wrote revealed his concern for Feng Shishi.

He said that Feng Shishi fell ill due to the unfamiliar climate, and that Feng Shishi, who was so simple and kind-hearted, must have suffered a lot after going to the countryside. When he learned that He Ting had already started a family in Xiangyang Brigade, he asked He Ting to take care of Feng Shishi for him, considering their past relationship as a member of the same compound.

Ask your love rival to help take care of your loved one?

What on earth was Li Ruicai thinking?

How could you have such a strange idea?

But to be honest, Lu Baiwei hadn't seen Feng Shishi for half a month. They only met once before the New Year when Feng Shishi came to the brigade clinic and asked He Ting to go to the educated youth center to have New Year's Eve dinner together.

Given Feng Shishi's personality, she would probably go to the brigade clinic a couple more times, taking advantage of the fact that there is nothing to do at the educated youth site during the New Year.

How come such a living person suddenly disappeared?

If it weren't for Li Ruicai's letter, He Ting and Lu Baiwei would have forgotten about Feng Shishi.

It's not that He Ting would really listen to Li Ruicai and help take care of Feng Shishi. After all, Li Ruicai wrote a letter specifically for this. Zhou Yanfeng and Tang Yunling came to the brigade clinic to make Yuanxiao together, and He Ting asked about the educated youth point.

"Why hasn't Feng Shishi seen anyone recently?"

"She's sick!"

Lu Baiwei was going to make rice candy before the New Year. In addition to the few pounds of glutinous rice distributed by the brigade, she also exchanged some more with other people on the team.

On the 15th day of the Lantern Festival, I just ground the glutinous rice left over from the previous year into powder, and called Tang Yunling and Zhou Yanfeng to come over to make Lantern Festival dumplings.

The glutinous rice balls Zhou Yanfeng made were irregular circles, which caused Tang Yunling to laugh mercilessly.

Xiao Ranzi made a face at him: "Uncle is so stupid!"

Zhou Yanfeng felt very happy when he was called "uncle".

He quietly looked at Tang Yunling who was carefully kneading the glutinous rice balls, and lightly scratched Xiao Ranzi's nose with his powdered hand.

"Xiao Ran is so good and sweet."

He Yunqi saw that his sister's nose was scratched.

The little sister-loving maniac will be online soon.

Knowing what Zhou Yanfeng cared about most, he rolled a sesame dumpling and showed it to Tang Yunling.

"Auntie, am I rubbing well?"

"Wow, Xiao Qi is awesome."

Tang Yunling gave Zhou Yanfeng a cold look and said, "Look at what you have done. You are not even as good as a child."

"Yeah, he's not even as good as a kid, what's the use of him."

"Don't let him get away with it!"

"He is so stupid that he can't even make a glutinous rice ball properly."

Looking at Zhou Yanfeng provocatively, He Yunqi asked a soul-searching question: "He is so stupid, what if the child you give birth to is a fool in the future?"

Zhou Yanfeng: “…”

How did he offend the little devil?

Zhou Yanfeng was confused.

Look at Tang Yunling rolling the glutinous rice balls while turning her head to look at him.

Zhou Yanfeng called out to He Ting: "Brother Ting, please take care of your black sesame dumplings."

"By the way, why are you asking Feng Shishi?"

"She has been ill since the second day of the Chinese New Year, when she visited Liu Cuifang of the Red Flag Brigade."

Zhou Yanfeng took great pains to roll the glutinous rice balls into a rounder shape. If he couldn't do it right the first time, he would rub them back and forth several times, controlling the strength.

"Zhao Lingling asked her to go to the clinic to see her sister-in-law, but she insisted on going to the commune hospital."

In fact, when Lu Baiwei followed Shen Guixiang to accompany Lu Jiaojiao to see the doctor, Feng Shishi had a bad impression of her medical skills.

Also, Lu Baiwei is He Ting’s wife.

Feng Shishi felt that she liked He Ting, and Lu Baiwei was jealous of her and He Ting because they lived in the same compound, so she tried to harm her.

So she refused to listen to any advice and insisted on going to the commune hospital in the cold wind for treatment.

Zhou Yanfeng told He Ting: "The commune hospital couldn't see what was wrong with her. They just said she caught a cold and was weak. She would get better with care."

"I've been nursing him for about ten days, but he's getting more and more pale and thin. He's lying there with no breath coming in or out, and he's not getting better."

"The brigade office thought Feng Shishi was avoiding work and was lazy. Today, Party Secretary Liu even asked why Feng Shishi didn't go to work."

He was about to continue talking when Tang Yunling kicked him hard: "You have to mention that Feng Shishi to annoy my Weiwei, right?"

"Don't kick me, that's not what I meant..."

Zhou Yanfeng also saw that something was wrong with Feng Shishi, so he spoke a few more words to He Ting.

After hearing what Zhou Yanfeng said, He Ting was confused.

Feng Shishi started to fall ill on the second day of the Chinese New Year, and the post office was closed for the New Year. How did Li Ruicai, who was in the army far away in the south, know that Feng Shishi was sick due to acclimatization?

Before He Ting could figure out what was going on, someone called out at the door.

"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"

Because it was cold, Lu Baiwei called Zhou Yanfeng, Tang Yunling, and Zhou Yueying to make glutinous rice balls together. They locked themselves in the room and rolled the dumplings around the stove.

The person outside was knocking on the door very loudly, and his voice sounded anxious.

Thinking that someone came to the clinic to see a doctor, Zhou Yueying, who was sitting outside, stood up and opened the door for Lu Baiwei.

"Zhao Zhiqing?"

The person who came was Zhao Lingling from the educated youth point.

Seeing that everyone was in the room, Zhao Lingling seemed to be hesitating whether it was appropriate to ask the pregnant Lu Baiwei to go to the educated youth center for medical treatment.

Thinking of Feng Shishi's horrible look, she opened her mouth.

"Doctor Lu, can you go to the educated youth center to treat Feng Shishi?"

"She took the medicine prescribed by the commune hospital but it didn't get better. She was lying in bed and talking nonsense..."

After hearing Zhou Yanfeng say that Feng Shishi was so seriously ill, and remembering that Li Ruicai had asked him in the letter to help take care of Feng Shishi, and after all, regarding Shen Junqian's cargo transportation, He Ting decided to go to Secretary Liu's house and ask Liu Zaicheng to drive the tractor to take Feng Shishi to the commune hospital.

It was when Lu Baiwei heard Zhou Yanfeng say that Feng Shishi had caught a cold that she thought that if Feng Shishi's condition was really as serious as Zhou Yanfeng and Zhao Lingling said, and she caught a cold on the way to the commune hospital, that would be adding insult to injury.

These days, colds can be fatal.

As the brigade's barefoot doctor, it was her duty to cure illnesses and save lives, so Lu Baiwei decided to go to the educated youth site with Zhao Lingling.

He Ting was afraid that Lu Baiwei would catch a cold, so he wrapped her in three layers of clothes, even wrapping a scarf around her neck. Even when Lu Baiwei went out fully armed, He Ting still felt like something was missing.

After thinking for a while, he found a mask from the cabinet where medicinal herbs were kept and put it on Lu Baiwei.

"Be careful, don't get too sick."

In order to avoid suspicion, He Ting decided not to go to the educated youth center and asked Zhou Yanfeng to accompany Lu Baiwei on the trip.

He told Lu Baiwei: "Then you check on Feng Shishi first. If the condition is not good, she still needs to be sent to the commune hospital."

"I'll ask Liu Zaicheng to drive the tractor over there later."
