Qin Fang looked at the table full of grass, but had no appetite whatsoever.
Instead of treating someone to a meal, it's much more practical to eat a meal from the same pot as everyone else.
What kind of rubbish is this? There's not a drop of oil in it. After eating this, I won't even have the energy to get out of bed tomorrow.
At least the food in the cafeteria has some minced meat or a couple of thin slices of meat. This whole table of greens wouldn't even be eaten by a pig.
If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have asked Liu Xiaoliu to help me get the food.
He suffered so much.
"Do you have any eggs at home? Let's fry some eggs and have some."
Qin Fang flipped through the vegetables in the dish, but had no urge to eat them.
Su Ying was about to say yes, but Gu Sinian pulled her hand, stopping her from saying what she was about to say.
On their first day of arrival, Du Yunying went out to buy groceries. When she took out the eggs, she was truly speechless.
The space must not be exposed to the public; apart from Gu Sinian, no one else can know this secret.
The more people who know, the greater the danger.
Eating a vegetable feast won't starve you; it'll cleanse your digestive system.
Su Ying picked up a large cabbage from in front of her and put it in Qin Fang's bowl, saying, "Dad, eating more vegetables is good for your health."
Qin Fang didn't believe her at all. She already ate enough vegetables every day. If she ate any more vegetables, her face would turn blue.
Then he picked up some shredded radish and put it into Qin Fang's bowl.
The unique taste of radishes made Qin Fang lose his appetite; the canteen at the residence only served white radishes.
He feels nauseous just looking at or smelling white radishes now, so he can't eat them.
He immediately stood up from his chair and said, "There are still matters in the army that need my attention. I'll go and take care of important matters first. Please enjoy your meal."
Qin Fang secretly vowed that he would never come to his daughter's house for a free meal again, even if he starved to death. What was there to look forward to in a field of greenery? What good food was there? He might as well eat in the cafeteria.
Comrade Du specially came to his home to invite him, thinking he had prepared something delicious, but this is what happened instead.
He's not a cow or sheep, he can't be full just by eating grass.
Su Ying and Su Sinian watched as Qin Fang fled as if being chased by a dog. They exchanged a glance and smiled slightly.
That's hilarious and so much fun!
Su Ying looked at the table full of green vegetable leaves and had no appetite at all.
She couldn't hold back what was on her mind, "Sister Du...aren't you from Xingfu Village?"
Du Yunying nodded, "Yes. I'm from Xingfu Village. Chief Qin has already sent people to conduct a background check, and we'll have the results soon. Just wait a few more days, and we'll be able to prove my identity."
"Sister Du, you've misunderstood. I've never doubted your identity, but there's one thing I don't understand."
"Ask me any questions you have, I won't mind."
Su Ying and Gu Sinian exchanged a glance, then Su Ying gave the opportunity to ask the question to the more perceptive Gu Sinian.
"You grew up in the countryside, and in a family that favored sons over daughters, how come you don't know how to cook?"
Du Yunying licked her lips. Having lived for so long, this was the first time she had ever been cornered by a mere twenty-something-year-old.
"This...this...if I said I've never been in a kitchen since I was a child...would you believe me?"
Gu Sinian and Su Ying had the same expression and said in unison, "Do you think we believe that?"
The reason is a little far-fetched, but she regrets becoming a nanny, so it seems I have to use my trump card.
"Actually, I'm not good at cooking. I never cooked at home growing up. For the eight years I was married, all I had to do was focus on taking care of my husband."
“My expertise lies not in housework, but in traditional Chinese medicine. I am very interested in healing and saving lives. Commander Gu, could you arrange for me to join the medical team? My medical skills are quite good.”
When Su Ying heard that Du Yunying knew traditional Chinese medicine, her heart started beating even faster. What Du Yunying knew and didn't know was very similar to her mother's.
Is she really not a mother?
The way they think is the same; they gently rub their index finger and thumb together. These little movements are all accidental.
How did she, a rural woman, learn traditional Chinese medicine? More and more mysteries surround her, catching people off guard.
That's really strange.
she……
Are things in this world really so coincidental?
When all the coincidences are put together, things become less simple.
"Sister Du, didn't you get married at the age of twenty? You've been taking care of your disabled husband for eight years, and his every need, from eating and drinking to toileting, rests on your shoulders. How could you possibly have any extra time to study medicine?"
Du Yunying had already thought of a countermeasure, and fortunately, she was quick-witted and immediately came up with a solution.
"I learned traditional Chinese medicine from a young age; I have a master."
"If you know medicine, why didn't you save your husband?"
Du Yunying immediately started making things up, "My husband was born with a disease that even Hua Tuo couldn't cure. What can I do?"
"He was already nearing the end of his life, but thanks to my meticulous care, he lived for eight more years. I've made a huge profit, haven't I?"
The couple exchanged a smile. Du Yunying answered questions quickly and flawlessly, making it impossible to find fault with her.
The couple had no choice but to pass the buck back to the person who had provoked Du Yunying first.
“My father-in-law is the highest-ranking official in the area. You can go to him to solve any problems you may have. After all, he was the one who insisted on keeping you here. Just ask him to resolve the issue.”
Su Ying secretly twisted the man's arm and said through gritted teeth.
"You're such a dutiful son-in-law, selling out my dad like that. You're something else."
"If my dad finds out you're doing this, he'll skin you alive."
Gu Sinian leaned close to Su Ying's ear and said, "I'm a man. I understand men better than you do. Your father-in-law's gaze towards Comrade Du is not innocent."
Su Ying glanced at Du Yunying in surprise, then focused her attention back on Gu Sinian, covering her mouth with her hand to block out the sound of his voice.
"I really am marrying you. I just don't have much dating experience, so don't lie to me."
"Why would I lie to you? But my father-in-law is already forty-four years old this year, while Comrade Du is only twenty-eight, in the prime of his life. There's a sixteen-year age difference between them, and I'm not kidding."
“There’s an age gap between you and him. If your dad gets involved, and Comrade Du doesn’t want him, he’ll be crying his eyes out.”
Su Ying rubbed her chin thoughtfully, "The practical problem does exist. My dad is getting old and has become an old man who can't keep up with his strength anymore. This Sister Du is not even thirty yet. What should we do?"
"How about we send Sister Du away and dispel all of my father's ideas?"
Gu Sinian didn't have that ability. His father-in-law was his top superior, so how could he possibly get rid of the person without his knowledge?
A higher rank can have a crushing effect, and the difference in rank between him and his father-in-law was as insurmountable as the Milky Way.
He doesn't have that ability; his young wife thinks too highly of him.
"I can't make that decision. Everything I do has to be reported. Your dad can tell right away. Aren't I just asking for trouble?"
Su Ying stared at Du Yunying for a long time. She almost admitted her mistake, let alone her father who was so deeply in love with her mother.
