Wang Qilan thought of the sad things and her nose felt a little sour. She concealed her anger by wiping away her tears and stopped thinking about it. So many years had passed and she had searched for so many things. In fact, she knew in her heart that it would be difficult to find it again.
She suppressed her thoughts and ideas, looked at Jiang Xia and Lu Yuanting, and spoke to Jiang Xia.
"Are you getting married? Are you coming to this place with the army?" Wang Qilan asked. She looked at Jiang Xia's dress and appearance. She looked and behaved like a city girl. If it were ten days ago, she would be like a rich lady who was very particular about food, clothing and daily expenses. She was definitely not from this small place and would not come here normally.
She saw Lu Yuanting dressed in military uniform and the couple looked very close, so she could only think of a military marriage.
"We just started dating, and we haven't gotten married yet." Jiang Xia blushed a little when she heard Wang Qilan's words.
"Maybe later." Lu Yuanting spoke solemnly after that. He listened to Jiang Xia's words, washed the apple carefully, cut it into small pieces that were easy to eat, handed one to Jiang Xia, and put the other one in an enamel cup for the other two people in the ward to taste.
Jiang Xia had a small appetite and had just recovered from an illness, so her appetite was not very good. She tried two or three slices of the apple cut into small pieces and couldn't eat any more. She took a bite of the remaining piece, leaving a tooth mark, and Lu Yuanting ate it very naturally.
After Lu Yuanting ate the remaining apple that Jiang Xia had bitten off, he wet his palm with water, held Jiang Xia's hand, and slowly wiped the apple juice off Jiang Xia's palm.
"There's some sticky stuff between my fingers, too." Jiang Xia also naturally stretched out her hand and directed Lu Yuanting.
The woman in a red cotton-padded jacket sitting on the hospital bed watched this scene. She put a piece of apple in her mouth and chewed it until it had almost no taste. Only then did she swallow it. She pouted her lips and spoke as she looked at Jiang Xia directing Lu Yuanting to wipe her hands.
"You city girls are so delicate. If you have apple juice on your hands, why don't you just lick it and it will be gone? You can still taste the sweetness and not waste it. But you still want your man to wipe your hands for you. You are so particular. It's good to be good-looking. It doesn't matter if you can't do anything. There will always be someone to do it for you."
"But how can a man serve a woman? He would be laughed at if someone saw him."
There was a hint of sourness and sarcasm in his voice, as if he couldn't stand Jiang Xia's behavior.
She has been like this for more than ten years. She does everything by herself and serves her man well. Looking around the whole village, there is no woman as pampered as Jiang Xia.
"Lu Yuanting, will anyone laugh at you?" Jiang Xia naturally heard the muttering of the woman in the red cotton-padded jacket. She asked Lu Yuanting in a soft voice.
"Others will envy me, envy me that I have someone to love, envy me that I have someone to listen to. If I don't treat my own partner well, who can I treat well?" Lu Yuanting listened to Jiang Xia's words. He spoke in a steady and serious voice and glanced at the woman who said something sarcastic about Jiang Xia.
"Oh." Jiang Xia was a little moved after listening to Lu Yuanting's words. Lu Yuanting was always serious and spoke nice words in a serious tone.
"..." The woman in the red cotton-padded jacket stopped talking after being looked at by Lu Yuanting. She obviously felt a little embarrassed.
Wang Qilan was watching this scene with a little surprise in her eyes. They had just started dating and were not married yet. Seeing how naturally they got along with each other, she thought they had been married for quite some time. She also had a slightly changed impression of Lu Yuanting. Based on Lu Yuanting's appearance, she thought he was a careless and rough man.
Although he looks rough now, he is actually a thoughtful, calm and considerate person who loves and protects others.
"Are you in the hospital because you always have headaches in the middle of the night?" Jiang Xia looked at Wang Qilan standing in front of him.
"Yes... yes, the doctor said that they couldn't find the cause. She can only be hospitalized for intravenous drip and cooling down. She needs to go to the local hospital for a check-up." Wang Qilan nodded, with some surprise in her eyes. Jiang Xia was carried into the hospital unconscious and was unconscious for two days before waking up. Logically, it was impossible for her to hear about her condition from the doctor.
"You are not sick, you are just overthinking, crying too much, thinking too much, and not sleeping enough, that's why you are like this. You are on IV drip in the hospital, but it won't solve the root cause and it will only cause pain." Jiang Xia said.
She is clear about family grudges, and she will return kindness to those who are kind to her.
Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. As soon as she saw Wang Qilan's face, she knew that Wang Qilan had stagnation of lung qi and was affected by her emotions.
"Come here and I'll give you a massage." Jiang Xia spoke, calling Wang Qilan to come closer.
Wang Qilan listened to Jiang Xia's clear and logical speech, and she was able to diagnose her illness at once. There was some surprise in her eyes. She didn't expect that this seemingly weak little girl could actually do medicine. She listened to Jiang Xia's words and walked forward.
Jiang Xia was receiving an IV drip with one hand, so only the other hand could move freely. She pinched the acupuncture points on Wang Qilan's palm, shoulder, and eye socket. With her skillful force, she saw some surprise in Wang Qilan's eyes after just two pinches.
"Much better. My head isn't so dizzy and heavy anymore." Wang Qilan said. She came to the county hospital because of the severe headache. The intravenous drip relieved the pain a little, but she could still feel it vaguely. Now that Jiang Xia was pressing on her, she felt much better.
"When you have a headache in the future, press it like I did just now. Press it for more than ten hours every day and you will fall asleep. But after a long time, if you still think too much, cry too much, and sleep too little, you will have another attack." Jiang Xia said.
Listening to Jiang Xia's words, Wang Qilan had a look of gratitude on her face, but then she felt helpless and she sighed.
"I don't want to either, but I have no choice. I don't actually live here. I married to Yancheng many years ago. This time I came here to look for my relatives. My daughter was only two or three years old at the time. We were poor and chaotic back then. I didn't take care of her and she got lost. I heard that there was a girl who looked like me and had no parents, so I came here to see her."
Wang Qilan was silent until here, and was naturally disappointed. Because of this, her emotions fluctuated so much that she fell ill and was admitted to the county hospital.
"Looking for relatives?" Jiang Xia listened to Wang Qilan's words and couldn't help but think of Liang Qing, who lived with her in Yatou Village, and the report she saw in her previous life about the richest man in Yancheng looking for his relatives.
