Chapter 55 Comrade Su is ignoring you?
Having found her direction, she hummed a cheerful tune as she left the space.
The best course of action now is to send out a batch of fruits and vegetables, which will not only solve the problem of passengers being hungry, but also empty the kitchen.
Otherwise, where would we put all that wheat?
But as soon as she peeked out, she saw a man striding towards her from the other side, and she was so frightened that she immediately shrank back into the space.
I have no idea what that man was so eager to do.
Forget it, forget it!
We agreed that even if we were talking to a dog, we wouldn't pay any attention to him.
Who cares what he does!
Little did she know that Huo Zhenhua would come straight to her after returning from outside.
He didn't find Su Meng in the third carriage, so he searched for her carriage by carriage.
The more I searched, the more frustrated and worried I became.
Where did she go?
Doesn't she like Xiao Qi?
Didn't you like sitting with that pretty boy?
Where did it go?
Thinking of how they had once worked together to suppress and blockade the small army, his heart tightened, and his fists clenched, making a "crackling" sound.
She might also be on the blacklist in the notebook.
Nowadays, enemy agents are everywhere. What should we do if we are targeted by them?
Will she be alright?
But the disaster was urgent, and he had no time to continue searching for Su Meng, so he turned back in a daze.
Wang Qinglin looked at the dark-faced regimental commander who had returned alone, leaned closer and whispered, "Have you offended someone again?"
"Is Comrade Su ignoring you?"
"..." Huo Zhenhua felt annoyed, but he didn't say anything and rushed into the rain. "Are we coming or not?"
Wang Qinglin glanced back, nodded to Xie Mian in greeting, put on his hat, and disappeared into the torrential rain.
On the other side, Su Meng, disguised as an old man, walked in the opposite direction from Huo Zhenhua.
As she walked, she quietly placed fruits, vegetables, sweet potatoes, and large bags of wheat in the empty connecting areas between the carriages.
Of course, it refers to unhulled wheat grains.
Therefore, for the next two days, continuous pounding sounds could be heard from the carriages near the dining car.
They were using any tools at hand to crush the wheat grains by pounding them, so that they could be cooked into a porridge to fill their stomachs.
The people's basic needs for food and clothing were temporarily met, but the continuous heavy rain continued.
Su Meng sat by the window, holding Xiao Qi, staring blankly at the rain. "How many more days do you think the car will be parked?"
Hearing this, Xie Mian frowned deeply, "I don't know!"
Just then, Mr. Mo Hengyu, carrying his medical kit, hurriedly rushed into the rain.
Seeing this, Su Meng handed Xiao Qi to Wu Yanru and immediately chased after her.
"Mr. Mo, what's going on?"
Mo Hengyu pointed to the train attendant waiting by the tracks, "There's someone injured up ahead, I'll go check on them."
Su Meng followed closely behind, "Why don't I go? Sir, the rain is too heavy, you should go back quickly."
Seeing Mo Hengyu was like seeing her grandfather; Su Meng couldn't bear to see the old man braving the wind and rain.
Mo Hengyu smiled and said, "Then let's go together."
A dozen minutes later, the old man and the young man followed the train conductor to the accident site.
The people involved in the accident were half-held and sat on the tracks, while another person held up a wet coat and covered their heads.
But a torrential downpour cannot be blocked by a single piece of clothing.
The man carrying the person saw the train conductor approaching with two men carrying medicine boxes, wiped the rain off his face, and shouted, "Comrade, please help me take a look!"
Xiao Yu was swept off the railway tracks by a flash flood and is injured somewhere. We dare not move him, so we have to trouble you.
Su Meng glanced at Xiao Yu, who was pale and soaking wet.
He glanced around at the open, unobstructed wilderness.
Without hesitation, he took off his raincoat and gave it to the wounded soldier.
Then, after taking his pulse, I said, "He inhaled floodwater and has a slight lung infection. He is temporarily unconscious mainly due to malnutrition and overwork."
Mr. Mo Hengyu confirmed her diagnosis, saying, "It's a pity that the conditions here are so basic; there's no nutrient solution."
Without a second thought, Su opened the small wooden box and said, "I have some powerful tonics."
Because of Xie Mian's health condition, it was not possible to cook a special nutritious meal for him on the train.
So she specially made some pills in the space to supplement nutrition and improve physical fitness.
These pills are very mild and more nutritious than rice water, so they won't cause people with severe nutritional deficiencies to overdo it.
So Su Meng contributed all the pills in the small wooden box, saying, "Eating one of these a day can restore half of your energy."
Hope this helps.
Also, this is an anti-inflammatory medication. Mr. Mo, would you consider it suitable?
Mo Hengyu looked at her approvingly, "Xiao Lin, you did a great job! Your medical skills are excellent, and your character is beyond reproach."
The soldier next to him took the pills and thanked him repeatedly.
Under the current conditions, even those who are fighting disasters on the front lines cannot get enough to eat.
It's common to feel dizzy and lightheaded from hunger.
With the pills to replenish his strength, he believes he will be able to clear the road soon.
Su Meng thought so too.
She looked at the soldiers who were holding the front line with heartache, her admiration growing even stronger.
Just then, she spotted Huo Zhenhua in the crowd.
His trousers were rolled up to his knees, his military green shirt was tied around his waist, and he wore a close-fitting white vest as he worked alongside the soldiers.
The gauze on his arm looked like the cotton cloth she had torn off back then.
Rainwater washed over his wounds, leaving a shocking patch of blood-red stains on the cotton cloth.
Upon closer inspection, a faint trace of blood-red water could be seen flowing beneath the cotton cloth, mingling with the rainwater and falling into the murky stream as he moved.
His wound must have reopened!
There's a possibility of infection!
Thinking of this, Su Meng inexplicably said to the young soldier beside her, "Comrade, could you help call that comrade?"
His wound was bleeding.
If left untreated, it can lead to infection and suppuration, threatening life.
Following the direction she was pointing, the young soldier asked, "Is that Commander Huo?"
His wound was indeed infected.
But he refused to get down or let them change the gauze.
"Please wait a moment, I'll go get him."
Su Meng frowned. What was he doing?
That's absolutely outrageous!
Before long, Su Meng sensed a familiar gaze.
When I turned around, I saw the man turning to look at me.
Rainwater washed over his face, past his pale lips, and I saw his lips move a few times.
Then, he vigorously rubbed his face twice and strode over.
He kept his lips pursed, his gaze fixed intently on her.
Seeing her standing in the rain, soaking wet, with so many vertical lines furrowed between her brows that not a single hair could be inserted, I was struck by her appearance.
"What brings you here? Where's your raincoat?"
As soon as he got close, he asked a series of questions.
Before Su Meng could say anything, he took off the shirt from his waist and tried to put it on her head.
However, his shirt was also wet.
It drips water as soon as you pick it up.
Su Meng twitched the corner of her mouth, looked at the man who was also completely naked, and pointed to his arm, "Let me change your bandage first."
Huo Zhenhua was stunned for a moment, then instinctively hid his arm behind his back, "No!"
But Su Meng pulled her over without saying a word and said to herself, "You're probably infected. You'll need to get a shot when you get back."
The man initially wanted to struggle, but upon feeling the coolness on his arm, his tense heart suddenly contracted, a bittersweet feeling welling up inside him.
He thought that if she weren't engaged since childhood, he would confess his feelings immediately and propose right away.
However, fate is cruel. Just as the heavens were unkind, torrential rain poured down for days, leaving the world riddled with holes.
He wanted to raise his right hand, which was hanging by his side, to cover that cold little hand.
But seeing her focused expression and remembering their respective identities, he forcefully suppressed the pounding in his heart.
"Alright! Come back and I'll change your dressing." Su Meng, unaware of his inner turmoil, casually reached out to throw away the cotton cloth.
Huo Zhenhua reacted quickly, snatching it away, exclaiming, "This is mine!"
He was fighting at the time, but he knew that Su Meng had torn her own clothes to bandage him.
This was the first thing Su Meng gave him, and he didn't want to throw it away!
Su Meng looked at him in surprise, "Don't you want that anymore?" It's just a piece of rag, what's so precious about it?
Huo Zhenhua avoided her gaze and urged her in a low voice, "Go back quickly, it will be over soon."
After saying that, he rushed to the front line again.
Su Meng: "......"
