Since Jiang Xiufen was caught on the spot by Xu Zhiyi and Qin Zheng that night, she has been staying at home and has no intention of going to the hospital.
For three days, Jiang Xiufen locked herself up at home. Whenever she had some free time, her mind was filled with Xie Heng. Sometimes Jiang Xiufen forced herself to forget Xie Heng and tried to think of Dr. Li, but she couldn't remember him. She could only think of a faceless figure in a white coat.
In fact, in her heart, she still likes Xie Heng. After all, Xie Heng has been in her life for more than four years. She has been thinking about him for four years. How could she forget him in such a short time?
At the same time, she knew that Xie Heng was only thinking about it in her mind, while Dr. Li was the reality. However, because of Xu Zhiyi and Qin Zheng's intervention that night, she no longer had the courage to go to the hospital.
On this day, Jiang Xiufen originally wanted to stay at home, but since the food at home was really gone, Jiang Xiufen had no choice but to pack up and go to the supply and marketing cooperative. On the way back from the supply and marketing cooperative, Jiang Xiufen ran into Xie Heng on the road.
Xie Heng saw Jiang Xiufen and greeted her.
In fact, Jiang Xiufen had seen Xie Heng a long time ago, but because Jiang Xiufen had been pale these days due to the hospital affairs, she didn't want to meet Xie Heng in this state. But Xie Heng took the initiative to call her, so how could she not go?
Xie Heng saw Jiang Xiufen getting closer and closer to him. She looked pale and thinner. He asked worriedly, "Xiufen, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so sick? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Xiufen looked up at Xie Heng. The moment she looked up at Xie Heng, her eyes turned red. She resisted the urge to throw herself at Xie Heng. Her eyes showed that she had suffered a great injustice, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Jiang Xiufen just looked at Xie Heng without saying a word.
Xie Heng's heart was also disturbed by Jiang Xiufen. "Xiufen, what's wrong with you? Did someone bully you? Did someone make you feel wronged?"
Jiang Xiufen kept shaking her head, refusing to speak, and just kept saying, "It's okay, it's okay."
Jiang Xiufen finally managed to calm down. Just when she wanted to stay with Xie Heng for a while longer, she saw people shivering on the road. She didn't know when more people came.
Jiang Xiufen had no choice but to say goodbye to Xie Heng and leave.
But Jiang Xiufen just left, and she kept looking back at Xie Heng reluctantly, which made Xie Heng feel itchy inside.
Xie Heng looked at Jiang Xiufen's aggrieved expression, and a desire to protect her surged in his heart. Xiufen was such a good girl, how could she be wronged like this? No, he couldn't let others bully her.
Since giving birth, Zhang Yumei has not only neglected her skin care, but also been out all day, which has caused her to become tanned. Now, because she has not exercised well after giving birth, and has been eating too much all day, she has become fat and dark, and looks more and more like a rural person.
After Xie Heng returned home, he saw Zhang Yumei had already prepared the meal, and very naturally handed the bag in his hand to Zhang Yumei.
Zhang Yumei took the bag from Xie Heng and took off his coat. "Xie Heng, you're back. Are you tired today? Was it hard?"
Xie Heng shook his head lightly, without responding to Zhang Yumei's words, but sat down directly at the dinner table.
Xie Heng looked at the dinner table without any appetite, and Jiang Xiufen's figure was all in his mind.
Zhang Yumei put down the food she had just eaten and quickly sat down at the dining table. She asked Xie Heng about his well-being, "Xie Heng, this is the braised pork I made. Do you think it tastes good?" As she spoke, Zhang Yumei picked up a piece of braised pork and placed it in Xie Heng's bowl.
Xie Heng looked at the braised pork that Zhang Yumei brought over, feeling disgusted. However, Xie Heng still managed to hold it in and took a look. "Hmm, not bad."
But he didn't eat a single bite of the meat in his bowl.
Zhang Yumei felt even happier because of Xie Heng's "not bad" and she happily talked about the process of buying meat and cooking.
Xie Heng became even more annoyed by Zhang Yumei's words. He was thinking about the previous Zhang Yumei and Xu Zhiyi who were being discussed by people outside.
Before, Zhang Yumei wouldn't talk to him like this. She would only discuss what she had done and learned at work that day. But now, things are completely different. Qin Zheng is now the envy of everyone in the army because of Xu Zhiyi, while he has become a laughing stock for giving up his job because of Zhang Yumei.
At this moment, Xie Heng had long forgotten that he also strongly supported Zhang Yumei's decision to give up her job.
Zhang Yumei was eating the dish and talking to herself. The moment Zhang Yumei didn't hear Xie Heng's answer, she noticed that something was wrong with Xie Heng.
Zhang Yumei nudged Xie Heng's arm. "Xie Heng, what's wrong? Is the food not to your liking? Or are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Xie Heng put down the dishes in his hands and said, "No."
Zhang Yumei muttered to herself, "No? How could there be no? If not, then why are you so distracted?"
Xie Heng looked at Zhang Yumei, "Yumei, I ran into Xiufen when I came back today. Xiufen looked aggrieved. Someone must have bullied her. Yumei, as her sister-in-law, you should help Xiufen more and not let others bully her."
When Zhang Yumei heard Jiang Xiufen's name, she immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks. "Xie Heng, even if I want to help her, I can't go too far. Xiufen's sister is still in the army. If I go too far, people outside will say that Xiufen's sister abused her, which would embarrass Xiufen even more."
"Also, Xie Heng, I've been very busy lately. The martial arts competition is about to begin, and I have to seize the opportunity to connect with Sister Da Mi so that she can hear more of what she says in front of Political Commissar Wang. Also, a few days ago, when I was out, I ran into the chief's wife and spoke to her for a few words.
So, Xie Heng, you have to prioritize everything. Don't forget your own business just because you feel sorry for Xiufen."
Although Xie Heng was very reluctant to agree with Zhang Yumei's words, since the competition was at a critical stage, he could only endure it. After all, Zhang Yumei had indeed put in a lot of effort for him.
For Xie Heng, Zhang Yumei not only ran to the family compound of Qin Zheng and Xu Zhiyi all day long, but she even talked to Guo Dami and Li Ruonan. No matter how harsh Li Ruonan's words were, Zhang Yumei didn't even say a word in reply. She just kept nodding and saying, "Sister-in-law is right. I've learned my lesson."
And now Xie Heng actually cared about an outsider in front of her, and this outsider was the person Zhang Yumei hated the most. How could Zhang Yumei not feel resentment, and how could she still be nice to Xie Heng?
