He Jiaxing, who was on the other end of the phone, had no choice but to accept his fate and tell everyone where he was.
"Grandma, we are at the Nanshi Military Hospital in Su Province."
His father was seriously injured at the time. If his brother-in-law hadn't forced them to come here, he would probably be dead now.
"What, you are in Nanshi, Su Province?" The moment she heard the address, Grandma He raised her voice.
He Wanqing, who was hugging He's mother to comfort her, heard the words, her eyes flashed, and then she let go of He's mother, walked to the phone, and took Grandma He's phone:
"Brother, how did you get to Nanshi? Aren't you supposed to be at Xihe Military Hospital?
And is it true that Dad’s injury is not serious? Then why did you switch to the military district for treatment? ”
She had a vague feeling that this matter was related to Gu Chengan, but she didn't dare to guess without getting an answer.
Hearing his sister's voice, He Jiaxing finally breathed a sigh of relief. He no longer had to be so nervous about being exposed.
"Little sister, Dad's injury is not serious. He will be fine after some rest. Dad, us, and Jialin have all been transferred to Su Province.
In the future, you and mom will come here to live. It will be much more convenient than living in the mountain cave in Xihe.
As for why Dad is in Nanshi Military Hospital, it was because my brother-in-law sent him here. As soon as our transfer order came down, he immediately packed up his things and came here. Now my younger brother and I are taking care of him here.
I heard from your brother-in-law that you are pregnant. Don't worry. You can come if you want.
However, several of us are not stationed here, and my dad has just been promoted here, and the family housing has not been decided yet, so it may not be convenient to live here, so not so many people can come. ”
"Brother, it's okay. I can go to my in-laws' house where we live. Is Dad's injury really okay? He won't be in danger of death, right???"
This was what she was more concerned about. As for where to live, she felt that the guesthouse could accommodate her, not to mention that her husband's family was there.
"It's okay. If there was any danger to life, Dad would not be promoted now, but would be transferred back home."
"Dad got a promotion???" This is really good news, but it's not worth it as it costs one's life to get this news.
"Well, the deputy has been promoted to a full-time position. Okay, I won't tell you anything more. If you come, go directly to the South City Military General Hospital."
"Okay, I got it." She hung up the phone after hearing a busy tone from the other end.
Turning around and looking at a few pairs of expectant eyes, she supported He's mother and walked out, whispering:
"Dad is at the South City Military Headquarters now. Once we get there we'll know how serious his injuries are, so don't worry.
And Dad has been promoted. This is something to be happy about. Don’t look so sad, otherwise the villagers will think something happened to Dad. ”
After saying the last sentence, she glanced at the team leader and the branch secretary, smiled and nodded to them, and then took the elderly people home.
"My daughter, isn't your son-in-law's family from South City? Then~"
"Mom, no, Gu Ya and the others just arrived and can't be taken back." Guessing what her mother wanted to say, He Wanqing directly refused.
"Okay, go home and rest. The time tomorrow morning will remain the same." After saying that, he let go of her hand, turned around and gave a few words of instruction to Grandma Shen and the others, then he raised his foot and supported Grandma He as they walked home.
When passing by the village entrance, a few curious people wanted to find out the news, but seeing that they had cold faces and walked forward without saying a word, no one dared to ask.
They were afraid that if they asked the wrong question, He Wanqing would use a dung shovel to deal with them. They didn't want to become as stinking as the Xu family.
He Wanqing, who had been walking home with a sullen face, didn't know that after she left, Grandma He and others were discussing what to bring to Nan City.
Previously, they thought they were going to Xihe in the northwest, so they only brought their own clothes and ordinary things from home.
But now they were going to Nan City, Jiangsu Province. Thinking of the in-laws they had never met, both Grandma He and Grandma Shen felt that they couldn't bring too few things, otherwise it would not look good.
If nothing else, the things that were given to Wanqing when she got married were worth their trouble to prepare.
Moreover, even if He Jiaxing didn't say anything, some smart people could still guess that He Baolian's recent affairs must have troubled his in-laws.
Thinking of this, Grandma He made the final decision: "Okay, let's ask the eldest brother to go to Yujiawan Brigade and exchange some bacon. When the time comes, we will bring it to give to our in-laws.
If there are any good medicinal herbs from the mountains, bring them along as well. Don’t embarrass Wanqing. "On this point, Grandma He and her old girlfriend had the same idea, that is, they must not let their granddaughter embarrass herself in front of her husband's family.
"Well, it's settled. All right, you guys go home and pack up, and we'll go home too." As she said that, Grandma Shen took Grandpa Shen and walked quickly towards home without stopping for a minute.
Watching the old couple leaving, Shen Yu Niang turned her head to look at her mother-in-law. After seeing that her father-in-law and mother-in-law had walked away, she raised her feet again to catch up.
When He Wanqing returned home, she saw her cousin sitting at the door knitting again. This time, she did not hide the secret as she did before, but told her the whole story.
At the end, he added, "Is there anything you need me to bring for you when you go to Nanshi this time?"
"Sister, how is my uncle's injury? As for the things, I don't need them. I have everything I need now. If I need anything in the future, I can ask you."
Shen Ping shook her head. If it were before, she might have asked her cousin to help her look after the Su family.
Now~
Not at all. She just needed to pray that the Su family could be assigned to their team for reform.
"Brother said it's not serious. You'll know when you see it." She felt that it must be full of water, but it was also true that it was not life-threatening.
"That's good. There's a bench. Sit down and have a rest. It's time to make dinner soon."
Looking at the sun setting in the west, Chen Ping pointed at the stool beside her and said.
He lowered his eyebrows and glanced at the stool she pointed at, then shook his head: "No, I want to eat lo mein tonight, I have to go in and roll the noodles, you sit down!"
"Sister, I won't sit down either. I'll go home and make some noodles to eat."
Hearing her say "lo mian", and thinking of the soup in the pot, Chen Ping finished the last stitch, pushed the thread to the middle, tucked the half-knitted sweater under her armpit, and talked as she walked.
"Got it. Wash more vegetables. They'll taste great in bone soup."
"Okay, I'll try it later." Chen Ping, who was almost at her doorstep, responded to her while waving her hand.
After seeing her come in, He Wanqing took two stools into the yard to prepare dinner.
Since she was going to make lo mein, she had to do all the necessary preparations. She had already washed the vegetables in the afternoon, and also prepared tomatoes and eggplants that had been drained from the water, as well as a twisted cucumber.
Take the washed vegetables into the kitchen and start cutting them. Cut the cucumber into shreds and the tomato into sections and eat them cold later.
There is no need to cut the green vegetables, just blanch them in the soup later. Dice the eggplant and stir-fry it with some minced meat to use as topping.
