After lunch, Ji Yanming sat for a while and asked Ning Xiyue about the medicine related to Ning Qingzhi's eye treatment. Only after knowing that there was no problem did he feel relieved and prepared to leave with his empty lunch box.
Ning Xiyue stood up to see Comrade Ji off. When Ning Qingyuan saw this, he hurriedly followed behind and expressed his willingness to go with her to see Comrade Ji off.
Instead of one person sending the girl, two people did. Ning Qingyuan was on high alert and would not let his sister be left alone with other men.
He also gave a righteous reason that was impossible to refuse.
"Comrade Ji, thank you so much for taking care of me these past few days. Today, we, my brother and I, must send you off together to express our gratitude."
Ji Yanming: ...
There is no need to express gratitude in this way.
"Thanks."
Ji Yanming said thank you very reluctantly, and walked side by side with them, carrying the empty lunch box in the net bag.
"There are many nice places in Shanghai. You can go around and explore. I've been busy lately and can't take you there in person. Next time I'm free, I can come over and show you around, or even take you to visit the military base."
"Comrade Ji, don't worry about us. We can take care of ourselves. You can focus on your own affairs. Don't worry about big brother. We have you covered. When you are done with your work, the three of us brothers and sisters would like to treat you to a simple meal."
Ning Xiyue didn't want to delay Comrade Ji's important matters. She had already helped so much. She knew that everyone in the army was very busy and had a lot of things to do every day. If she delayed Comrade Ji's time because of these trivial things like shopping, she would be a sinner.
"My sister is right, Brother Ji, just relax. I can go shopping with my sister, and we can go to the army after my brother's injury is healed. You should be busy and don't delay your work."
Ning Qingyuan spoke very considerately, with a firm expression on his face that said, "Just relax and do it, we will never hold you back."
My true inner thoughts: It’s great that I don’t have time!
"Okay." Just as they reached the hospital entrance, Ji Yanming looked at the gate in front of him, stopped, and waved to the two of them: "Then take care of yourselves. You don't need to send me off, just stay here. See you next time."
"Okay, Comrade Ji, goodbye." Ning Xiyue also stopped and waved goodbye.
"Brother Ji, take care."
A smile appeared on Ning Qingyuan's face.
"Um."
Before Ji Yanming turned around and left, he glanced at Ning Xiyue who was simply waving her hand, then glanced at Ning Qingyuan who was smiling at him, and then turned around.
Comrade Ji turned his back and sighed, saying: It's so hard for him!
Two obstacles and double resistance prevented him from getting anywhere.
Ji Yanming has to keep up the good work to get married. Come on.
After giving myself a mental encouragement, I calmed down and strode forward.
The two people who watched Comrade Ji leave withdrew their gaze.
"Sister, Comrade Ji has gone far away, let's go back."
"Um."
The two siblings turned and walked into the hospital. When they returned to the ward, they saw only the eldest brother leaning against the pillow reading a book.
"Brother, don't read for too long." Ning Xiyue reminded him and then asked curiously, "Hey, where's Sister Jiayin? Why can't I see her?"
"You're back." Ning Qingzhi put down the book in his hand and answered Ning Xiyue's question: "Your sister Jiayin's mother came just now, and now she is going to the water pump with a thermos to fill it with hot water."
"oh."
Ning Xiyue looked at the injury on her eldest brother's eye, and suddenly the bloody dramas of the eight o'clock dramas she watched in her previous life popped up in her mind, such as family disapproval and forcible separation of couples, eloping for love, etc. She was a little worried that her eldest brother would encounter such a thing.
"Brother, didn't Auntie say anything when she came?"
"Huh? What did you say?"
Ning Qingzhi couldn't keep up with his sister's jumping thoughts. He didn't understand what this sentence meant and looked up at Ning Xiyue in confusion.
Ning Qingyuan, who was drinking water, saw his sister glance at the wound on his brother's eye and understood what he meant. He put down the cup, swallowed the water in his mouth, and explained to his brother:
"My sister means whether your aunt has an unhappy look on her face, or whether she dislikes the way you are now."
"She's not unhappy. I see she still has a smile on her face."
Ning Qingyuan clapped his hands and immediately said, "That's it. This is the happy smile I get when I've made up my mind to separate you two and find another partner for Sister Jiayin to escape from this hell."
Ning Qingzhi's face darkened, and he rolled his eyes at Ning Qingyuan with his intact left eye: "Be serious."
"Haha, second brother, it would be a shame if you didn't go to the newspaper to publish your article."
Although Ning Xiyue thought so in her heart, she still had to laugh at her second brother and laughed non-stop while holding her belly.
Ning Qingyuan's eyes lit up after hearing what Ning Xiyue said. "Hey, sister, your idea is good. I have to find a way. I happened to be in a big city, there are many newspapers, and I have the opportunity to contact them. If I can publish my article, I can get some money to buy you some candy."
Ning Xiyue agreed as a joke between siblings, "Then I'll wait for the candy that my second brother bought with his royalties."
Before he even started writing, Ning Qingyuan had already begun imagining the scene when he would receive his royalties, and he patted his chest and made bold statements.
"When I get my royalties, I'll treat our family to a big meal at a state-owned restaurant. I'll buy your favorite mung bean cake for big brother, and I'll use the rest to buy White Rabbit candy for little sister. If I can get more than that, I'll send money to my parents, and then..."
"Second brother." Ning Qingzhi interrupted Ning Qingyuan, who was getting more and more excited and outrageous as he spoke: "Take it easy, don't be so exaggerated. Write the article first. We have to be pragmatic."
Ning Xiyue covered her mouth and laughed.
