Chapter 233 Old Chief
Outside the ward on the fourth floor of the military hospital, after confirming that Ying Qin and Ye Rou did not carry any weapons, the ward door opened, and a fragrance came to the face, the smell of woody spices. Ye Rou could smell that there were several kinds of calming herbs mixed in it.
The old leader must have trouble sleeping, which is why he needs to burn calming incense all day long.
There is only one bed in the ward, and the specifications are not much different from the ward on the third floor, but it is quieter here.
There were two people in the ward. A middle-aged man wearing a shirt and large-framed glasses was sitting by the window, reading a newspaper.
The old leader was leaning against the head of the bed, reading a book. Ye Rou noticed that his fingers were shaking violently as he turned the pages.
Ying Qin saluted the old commander, "Commander."
Ye Rou followed Ying Qin in saluting.
The old leader looked up and nodded when he saw Ying Qin. He glanced at the little girl behind her and couldn't help laughing.
The little girl was pretty. She followed Ying Qin in saluting, and her movements were surprisingly standard. Her chest and chin were raised, and her face was full of pride.
"Who is this little girl?" the old leader asked with a smile.
Ying Qin turned her head to look at Ye Rou, and seeing her follow the military salute, she quickly pressed her hand down, and then said to the old leader: "The little girl at home."
Her voice was normal, and her expression showed some helpless doting, as if she had no way to deal with the little girl.
The old leader was very familiar with Ying Qin. She had been a military doctor on the battlefield before. Like Xiao Li, she was rigorous in her work, serious in character, and rarely smiled. Now, seeing her indulging the little girl, he suddenly became a little curious.
"Relatives from Xiao Li's side?"
Ying Qin shook her head and said bluntly, "Liang Yushan's daughter, whom Old Li met when he went to the countryside. You should know her grandfather, Zheng Zhiyuan, the current chairman of the CPPCC."
When the old leader heard that it was Liang Yushan’s daughter, he immediately thought of what Liu Jintang had told him.
In order to protect his daughter, Liang Yushan stirred up a confrontation between the two factions, causing panic among the people in the military compound.
Ye Rou keenly noticed that after Grandma Ying finished speaking, the old leader looked at her with a scrutinizing look.
She was not afraid at all. She raised her head and looked directly at the old leader, letting him see calmly.
Noticing her forthright attitude, the old leader's gaze softened again. He nodded slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "She's a good child."
His eyes were clear and bright, without any desire or ambition, he was honest and straightforward, eyes can't lie, it seemed there was something else behind what Liu Jintang said.
Ying Qin directly stated the purpose of her visit today, "Old Chief, Xiaorou wants to take your pulse."
The communication between the soldiers was concise and efficient, without any preparation.
The old leader did not hesitate and said with a smile: "Is this little girl a Chinese medicine practitioner?"
Ying Qin nodded and said, "I am the disciple of Liu Jintang's junior apprentice, and we are of the same lineage. I heard that Liu Jintang was ill recently, and I was afraid that you would be delayed, so I brought Xiaorou to see you."
This sentence was very informative. The old leader understood it and nodded. "We should support the progress of young people. Little girl, come and check my pulse."
"Okay." Ye Rou walked towards the old leader, and the fragrance on her body also came with him.
The old leader couldn't sleep well because of a headache, as if someone was sticking a needle into his temples and hitting him on the head again and again.
Unfortunately, no matter what he tried, nothing worked. When he smelled Ye Rou's fragrance, the pain in his head was relieved a little. Although it was weak, it was particularly obvious for someone who was suffering from illness all the time.
Just for this reason, the old leader had some expectations for the little girl's medical skills.
Ye Rou's fingers were just about to touch the old leader's pulse.
The ward door was slammed open.
Yuan Hejing hurried in and saw Ye Rou about to take the old leader's pulse in the ward. Her face suddenly changed.
The middle-aged man who had been quietly standing by the side frowned and quickly stepped in front of Yuan Hejing, looking unhappy: "Director Yuan, what do you want?"
"Secretary Du," Yuan Hejing said calmly, "I have something to ask Dean Ying."
Ying Qin naturally saw what Yuan Hejing was thinking, and fearing that she might interfere, she immediately said, "Director Yuan, let's go to my office to talk."
She wants to take Yuan Hejing away.
Yuan Hejing stood still as if rooted to the ground. She suddenly turned to look at Ye Rou and asked in an exaggerated tone of surprise, "Why is Ye Rou here too?"
Her eyes fell on Ye Rou's outstretched hand, and she suddenly asked, "Are you going to take the old leader's pulse?"
Ye Rou ignored her, placed her fingertips on the old leader's pulse, and carefully took his pulse.
Ying Qin urged again: "Director Yuan, let's go."
Yuan Hejing suddenly raised her voice and said, "Dean Ying, what you did is totally wrong."
She was too noisy, Secretary Du frowned, and even the old leader looked at her.
Ying Qin said unhappily, "Director Yuan, if you have anything to say, let's go to the office and talk."
Yuan Hejing suddenly moved, took two quick steps, grabbed Ye Rou's hand as she was checking his pulse, and said loudly, "Dean Ying, your indulgence of Ye Rou is delaying the chief's condition."
After she said that, she grabbed Ye Rou's hand and tried to pull her up.
Yuan Hejing exerted force, but Ye Rou did not move at all, her fingertips still on the old leader's pulse, not leaving at all.
She frowned and tried harder, but Ye Rou still didn't move.
Yuan Hejing looked at Ye Rou with some fear. How could this little girl be so strong?
Secretary Du's face darkened when he saw Yuan Hejing actually attacking him in front of the old leader. He pulled Yuan Hejing away and asked, "Director Yuan, Dean Ying, what's going on?"
Just as Yuan Hejing was about to complain, the old leader said, "Little girl, what did you find out?"
She turned her head sharply and saw Ye Rou had finished taking the old leader's pulse.
Yuan Hejing's bad premonition became stronger and stronger.
Ye Rou whispered, "Do you understand your illness?"
The old leader smiled and nodded, "The little girl has some skills."
Seeing that the old leader was prepared for his illness, Ye Rou said with certainty, "I can't cure your illness, but I can help alleviate your pain and relieve your condition."
Ye Rou said it with certainty.
Secretary Du was very clear about the old leader's condition. When he heard Ye Rou's words, he said in a tone of admonition: "Young man, be careful with your words and don't be too arrogant."
The old leader smiled and said, "It's a good thing for young people to have confidence in their own abilities."
A strong youth means a strong country.
Ye Rou suddenly stood up and said seriously, "I want to see you."
The old leader suddenly realized that he had been wrong. This little girl was ambitious. She had a burning gaze, a determined expression, and was energetic and confident. It was great.
He knows his physical condition best. No doctor can cure his illness, but it is not impossible to let such a young and potential child practice.
"good-"
Before the old leader could finish his words, Yuan Hejing suddenly shouted, "No!"
In an instant, everyone looked at her at the same time.
