Chapter 80 I don’t know whether I should ask
Once the wine was opened, the dishes came out quickly.
Lin Qingqing and Song Yiyuan were also toasted with a few glasses of wine.
Xiaomei kept an eye on the steamed buns on the two tables. When they were gone, she would immediately take a basin to the living room to get more.
Nearly ninety steamed buns were eaten up in the end, as was a pot of sweet potato porridge. Not to mention the dishes on the table, all the juice was taken up by the sisters-in-law with their steamed buns.
The soldiers ate their fill and kept praising Lin Qingqing's cooking skills.
After dinner, the sisters-in-law cleared away all the dishes and put them in a large basin. The dishes became shiny and easy to wash.
Zhou Lie led everyone to move all the chairs and tables away.
The chief and the political commissar had already moved under the pergola. Aunt Wang pulled Lin Qingqing to sit down and chatted about family matters. Song Yiyuan sat beside them.
Lin Qingqing: If you have any idea, why don’t you tell me?
The chief and the political commissar exchanged glances, and after everyone had left, the chief immediately pulled Aunt Wang up.
Lin Qingqing was suddenly picked up, looking confused. What was going on?
Political Commissar Wang stopped the leader and said, "Wang Zhimin, this is really unethical of you, isn't it?"
The chief glared and roared, "You listened to my instructions in my office, is that a moral code?"
Political Commissar Wang turned his head and said, "Humph."
Song Yiyuan looked at the two people who were in a stalemate. He had already seen that the two had something going on today. The thing that could make both of them pay attention must not be a simple thing. He didn't know whether he could participate, so he never asked directly.
Lin Qingqing couldn't stand these two weird people anymore. What was there that couldn't be said directly?
She pulled her hand away without leaving a trace, smiled faintly and asked, "Commander, Political Commissar, what are you two doing here?"
The chief and the political commissar nodded briefly.
Lin Qingqing made a direct conclusion: "Then let's talk about it together at my house."
The commander and Political Commissar Wang looked at each other again and nodded, "It's not impossible."
Lin Qingqing took the initiative and made a gesture of invitation.
The chief laughed out loud, this girl is quite interesting.
Political Commissar Wang said nothing more and walked into the hall with the leader one after another.
Aunt Wang made an excuse and went home. As family members, they all knew how to avoid suspicion. Today, her husband only asked her to call Lin Qingqing home, and did not let her know what the matter was.
Song Yiyuan stood in the yard and didn't follow in. He was cleaning the yard with Xiaomei.
The three of them entered the hall. Lin Qingqing asked the two leaders to sit down, poured them each a cup of tea, and put some tea leaves in it.
"Please speak." She spoke first after sitting down.
The chief's eyes showed admiration. If he hadn't done a detailed background check, he wouldn't have believed that Xiao Song's wife was from the countryside. She was so calm and composed... and her eyes were not panicked at all when facing him and the political commissar. She didn't look like an eighteen-year-old girl at all.
The old man in his sixties at the research base was still mad this afternoon.
The chief cleared his throat and asked, "I have something to ask, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate or not."
Lin Qingqing frowned. Why did this loud-mouthed military leader become so literary? "Ask."
"Wife Xiao Song, did you also make Xiao Song's bottle of pills?"
Lin Qingqing nodded: "I made it for my family to nourish their health, and later I gave him two bottles when he needed to recover."
The chief stared straight at Lin Qingqing's expression as she spoke. He had heard Song Yiyuan say before that he saw her making medicine with his own eyes, but he still wanted to ask in person and see Lin Qingqing's answer.
After Lin Qingqing finished speaking, she saw the leader lowering his head, wondering what he was thinking.
Political Commissar Wang continued, "Lin Qizhi, we heard Team Leader Song talk about the pills' effectiveness and thought they would be suitable for our troops, so we sent them for testing. The results came back this afternoon, and they say there's nothing wrong with the pills. However, according to feedback, the pills are made from common herbs that don't have any special effects. So, how do these pills get their effectiveness?"
Seeing that it was a pill, Lin Qingqing nodded: "This pill is indeed more suitable for soldiers. Soldiers train for a long time and have many injuries and old ailments. Pills can nourish the body and relieve those old ailments, as well as the wear and tear caused by training."
The commander slowly raised his head after hearing this, and exchanged a silent glance with Political Commissar Wang. They both saw the excitement in each other's eyes that was difficult to contain...
If this pill can be mass-produced and given to soldiers, their military service life can be extended. Many soldiers retire because they are sick and can no longer perform missions. Those who have trained for ten or ten years may have to retire after just one mission.
If they could take care of their physical illnesses and wear and tear on a daily basis, how much would their combat effectiveness improve... They didn't dare to think too much, for fear that they would burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Lin Qingqing pondered for a moment and then said, "As for the fact that the pills are made of common herbs, it's because I studied pharmacology and made these pills based on the herbs we grow in the mountains. We don't have any precious herbs in the mountains, so I made them with common herbs."
"In fact, there is no such thing as a famous or precious herb. Some herbs are precious because they are rare. Rare herbs are not necessarily more effective than other herbs. Each herb has its own efficacy."
Is she trying to fool me? Is she trying to say that the human body's genetic cells can be mobilized? Is her pill supposed to activate genes and allow the body to repair itself?
Thanks for the support of my dear friends, I will add more today.
