Li Ying wasn't just overconfident; sometimes a woman's intuition is quite accurate.
"Chi En, if it were you, and you knew that the other person had a husband and children, would you still have feelings for that person?"
Li Ying asked a very immoral question.
Chi En rubbed her nose and said, "Well, this is a bit immoral, right? So a man like that is either purely bad or psychologically abnormal."
Chi En also likes Li Ying, but his liking for Li Ying is an appreciative liking, a liking that will not cross the line or do anything out of line.
"So I think Cao Xinqiao is mentally ill."
Li Ying's evaluation was very fair.
Chi En smiled.
Li Ying went home first that evening, and Chi En checked on the last patient before closing the door.
As I was closing the door, someone suddenly hit me from behind with a brick.
Upon hearing the news, Li Ying rushed to the clinic, where Chi En had already bandaged his head himself.
"Let's go to the hospital for a brain CT scan, just in case there are any lasting effects." Li Ying dragged Chi En to the hospital for the scan.
The doctor said I have a mild concussion and need to rest.
"Damn it, how could someone as kind as me, Chi En, be ambushed?" Chi En couldn't help but curse.
Have you offended anyone recently?
"No, you know me, how could I possibly offend anyone with my personality?" Chi En rubbed her slightly dizzy head, also quite angry.
Li Ying helped Chi En leave the hospital, personally escorted him home, and told him not to go to the clinic recently.
Fortunately, the next day, the niece of the distant cousin that Grandma Chi had mentioned came to the clinic.
The girl's name was Yinshu. She was sturdy, tall, and strong. She was wearing a coarse cloth jacket and the kind of wide-legged trousers that rural people wear.
Li Ying asked Aunt Yang to make her a set of clothes.
"Oh my, Mother, these clothes are so beautiful, can I wear them?" Yinshu blushed, holding the clothes with great affection.
"You can wear it. My tailoring skills are still up to par. Don't let your tall stature fool you; it's actually your clothing choices that are the problem. Wearing this will definitely make you look better," Aunt Yang praised.
Silver Tree was even more embarrassed, her eyes sparkling as she touched her clothes and grinned from ear to ear.
“I haven’t worn new clothes in years. I wear my mother-in-law’s clothes.”
"You're married?" Li Ying looked at the silver tree. "Weren't you only eighteen?"
Yinshu rubbed her nose: "My family was too poor, so my parents married me off early. But I was unlucky; my husband died of tuberculosis a few years ago."
Aunt Yang felt quite sorry for Yinshu.
"However, my mother-in-law also said that I have a very easygoing personality, but I am capable and can endure hardship."
Li Ying frowned and asked, "I study Traditional Chinese Medicine here. Can you read?"
Yinshu nodded: "I know her. She treated my husband's illness all those years ago. I studied medical techniques every day and went up the mountain to dig up medicinal herbs every day. When the pigs in our village got the plague, I cured them all. I'm quite famous in our village."
Li Ying touched her forehead, thinking that Grandma Chi wouldn't introduce people randomly, so she felt at ease letting Yinshu stay.
Yinshu is a girl who speaks in a very straightforward manner, but she is actually quite meticulous and knowledgeable about herbs.
After listening to Yinshu talk for a while, Li Ying learned that because she was a widow, staying at home would always cause trouble. That's why her in-laws wanted her to leave the village and go to the big city to broaden her horizons.
“My in-laws said that if I stay in the village, I’m just a doctor, but once I leave the village and go to the city, people will call me a doctor or a physician. So I listened to them and came here. Sister Ying, let me tell you, I know a lot of things.”
Yinshu's mouth is just as sharp as Chi En's.
Aunt Yang joked, "Our clinic lost a parrot and got a myna bird instead."
Li Ying laughed too, saying that the description of Aunt Yang was too apt.
Besides being skilled in herbal medicine, Yinshu is even more skilled at manual labor, such as carrying water and chopping wood, where she is more manly than any man.
Aunt Yang doesn't use the gas stove, but she often brings back some firewood. Ye Jingchi used to help her chop the firewood, but after Ye Jingchi went on to further his studies, Zhou Qi would occasionally come over to help.
Now, everything is fine; Yinshu did it all by himself.
Looking at the firewood filling the yard, Zhou Qi rubbed his hands together and said, "From now on, I won't have to chop firewood for Miss Ying's family."
"Yes, yes, we've done it with Silver Tree," Aunt Yang said happily.
In the evening, Zhou Qi and Lu Qingwan brought Niu Niu over for dinner.
A table was set up in the courtyard, and everyone sat around it, creating a lively and joyful atmosphere.
"Sister Yingying, do you miss Commander Ye?" Lu Qingwan leaned closer to Li Ying, her slightly drunk face displaying an ambiguous smile.
"I don't want to." Li Ying couldn't be coy in front of so many people.
"Nonsense, how could I not say? I couldn't stand being separated from Lao Zhou for two days." Lu Qingwan said coquettishly.
Zhou Qi shook his head helplessly: "Yes, because of this, the two of us discussed it for a long time, and she absolutely refused to let me climb any higher."
"Why climb so high? There are plenty of capable people in China, you're not the only one." Lu Qingwan didn't want to be separated from Zhou Qi.
Li Ying understood what the two of them were thinking and said with a smile, "You two, showing off your love is one thing, but there are minors here."
Leng Ci simply buried his head in his food and didn't offer any opinions.
"You're studying forensic medicine, right?" Zhou Qi patted Leng Ci on the shoulder: "You're a promising young man, not bad!"
Leng Ci gave an awkward smile.
After finishing their meal, Zhou Qi helped Lu Qingwan out the door, and Li Ying and the others saw her off at the gate.
Leng Ci helped open the car door, and Zhou Qi helped Lu Qingwan get into the car, then carried Niu Niu into the car as well.
"Let's go back."
Zhou Qi closed the car door, started the car, and as he exited the alley, he suddenly braked, got out of the car, and ran toward the furtive figure.
However, the man ran very fast, and Zhou Qi was mainly worried about his wife and children in the car, so he did not continue to chase after him.
Zhou Qi turned around and looked at the front gate of Li Ying's house.
The person spying here is probably Li Ying or someone from Li Ying's family.
Zhou Qi returned to his car and first took Qingwan and her daughter home. Then, still feeling uneasy, he called Ye Jingchi.
Are you sure that person was spying on our house?
"Absolutely, I think it's good."
Ye Jingchi also became wary.
"Nan Shiran has not been captured yet, and Ghost One has not appeared. I still need to find someone to keep a close eye on things."
“If you don’t have time, I’ll send someone to keep an eye on it,” Zhou Qi said.
Ye Jingchi thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about this, I'll take care of it."
Zhou Qi put down the phone and paced around the room. The person's back looked familiar; he seemed to have seen him before.
Could it be that a group of people are still not giving up and have come back to take revenge on Li Ying?
"Why aren't you sleeping? What are you doing there?" Lu Qingwan got up, staggered over to Zhou Qi, and threw herself into his arms. "Zhou Qi, can you please care about me more? Yingying has people who care about her and love her."
