Song Xiuyan was a little surprised: "What a coincidence? What's the full name of that Deputy Director Zhang?"
"Zhang Zhongyi is also from Beijing. He participated in the C War with Zhou Luming three years ago. I was there too, but we were not in the same military region, so we didn't meet."
Song Xiuyan felt that Zhou Shixun must have had some other intentions when he said that: "Why, you don't suspect that Zhou Luming wanted to harm you at that time? Or you knew his background at that time. If that's the case, this person is really vicious."
After thinking about it, he felt something was not right: "Zhou Luming's talent was average, and he was assigned to a very idle unit after he retired from the army. If he was really that smart, he wouldn't have gone to such a bad unit."
Zhou Shixun doesn't think so: "It's just a protective color to make people around him lower their vigilance."
Song Xiuyan thought about it and it made sense: "Then what do you decide to do?"
Before Zhou Shixun could speak, there was a knock on the office door, and then Zhou Chaoyang rushed in with a smile: "Brother, I heard that you were back, so I came to see you. Do you want to have lunch together? I heard that there is stewed meat in the cafeteria at noon today. I'll go get you some."
Song Xiuyan looked at Zhou Chaoyang with amusement. She really didn't treat herself as an outsider and didn't feel any distance towards Zhou Shixun, as if they had never been separated.
Zhou Shixun also had a headache; "No need."
Zhou Chaoyang thought Zhou Shixun was just being polite: "It's okay, it's okay. It's very convenient here. The uncles in the cafeteria always feel that they can't eat enough. Every time they serve me food, they are afraid that I won't have enough, so they give me more."
Song Xiuyan was amused: "You are so polite. Is it lunch time now? Why don't you just run over here?"
Zhou Chaoyang glared at Song Xiuyan and said, "It's none of your business."
Then he looked at Zhou Shixun flatteringly: "Brother, did you go to the city? Did you go to see your sister-in-law? Did you bring any gifts when you went to see your sister-in-law?"
Zhou Shixun frowned and looked at Zhou Chaoyang. This kid was really too noisy.
Zhou Chaoyang was not self-conscious at all: "Brother, when you go to see my sister-in-law in the future, you must buy some gifts, even if it's just wild flowers on the roadside. Girls like romance. Then take my sister-in-law to the city to see a movie and go shopping in the department store."
She had no experience in love, so she racked her brains to get close to Zhou Shixun: "Also, if you don't have money, I do. I have saved a lot of money over the years."
Zhou Shixun didn't say anything, but he took Zhou Chaoyang's words to heart.
Song Xiuyan sneered at the side: "You call me big brother in a very affectionate way, don't forget, Zhou Luming is also your big brother."
Zhou Chaoyang was stunned for a moment: "What does it matter? I call him my dear brother, if he is unhappy, there is nothing I can do. After all, I have called him brother for 25 years, now it's time to call him dear brother, people should be reasonable, right?"
Song Xiuyan gave a thumbs up: "That's a good idea."
Only Zhou Chaoyang could come up with such a weird train of thought.
Zhou Chaoyang snorted and circled around Zhou Shixun again: "Brother, brother, I may go to the city in a few days. Do you have anything to bring to my sister-in-law? Let's have lunch together at noon. Let's go now, otherwise there will be no meat."
Zhou Shixun was troubled by the noise: "You go out first, I have some work to do before going to eat."
Zhou Chaoyang nodded obediently immediately: "Brother, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go get you some food. You can find me in the cafeteria later."
She said this and left happily, not feeling sad at all because of Zhou Shixun's cold face.
Especially after hearing about Zhou Shixun's childhood experiences, she gnashed her teeth in hatred and blamed Zhong Wenqing for not taking her with him to Hewan Village, otherwise she would have beaten Zhu Guihua to a pulp.
So, she felt that it was normal for her eldest brother to ignore her. Her second brother once said that there is no need to care about gains and losses among relatives, and one should just do what he wants.
She just wants to treat her elder brother well now.
Song Xiuyan watched Zhou Chaoyang jumping out and couldn't help but praise him: "I didn't expect Zhou Chaoyang to be so sensible."
Zhou Shixun didn't say anything. It was a rare moment when his mind wandered. He was still thinking about Zhou Chaoyang's words. Should he buy something for Sheng An Ning next time he went to the city?
…
Sheng Anning has been very busy these two days. She wrote a self-introduction letter in English and sent it out, and then waited for the other party to reply.
The daytime courses were also very intense. In three months, she learned a summary of what she had learned in several years of college. It was like swallowing it whole and forcing a lot of things into her.
Just take the pulse and listen to the stethoscope. After all, it is impossible to give you all kinds of test data when you see a doctor now, and then see where the problem lies based on the data.
It all depends on taking the pulse, listening to the lung sounds and looking at the tongue coating to determine the cause of the disease or which part of the body has a problem.
This was also a challenge for Sheng An Ning, who was used to holding a scalpel, and he admired the doctor even more at that time.
An Xiuyu's child still cried at night, and would cry for two or three hours every night. Sheng An Ning would find time to go to bed. When the child was crying, she would take a book and read under the street light in the yard.
She couldn't understand why An Xiuyu didn't listen to the doctor's advice. She took her child out to bask in the sun during the day and supplemented her nutrition.
The hospital also has those vitamin tablets, they are quite cheap, I bought some for my child.
An Xiu Yu doesn't think so. She even has her own theory that all medicines are poisonous. Her child has no problems and will be fine when he grows up.
Sheng An Ning sat under the street light and sighed, scratching her head as she thought about it. It had been five days since she last saw Zhou Shixun. Should she find some time to go back and see him?
The weather has warmed up, and the trees on the street have turned green and sprouted tender branches.
Occasionally, a few wild apricot trees on the roadside also quietly bloomed.
Sheng An Ning has completely adapted to the life here. Eating multi-grain steamed buns and stewed cabbage without oil are not a problem for her. She is not anxious about not making money because everyone around her seems to be very satisfied and full of energy.
Unlike later times when people were so busy that even getting off work on time was a luxury and the fast pace made it hard for them to breathe, it is no wonder that people always reminisce about their childhood.
Although I am a little poor at this time, I am really happy.
Sheng Anning was also infected by this attitude. She was full of energy every day, calculating when she would receive a reply and when she could rest. She went back to see Zhou Shixun.
Half a month after the class started, I finally had my first break.
An Xiuyun also packed her things and carried her child home. Li Guiling even enthusiastically sent An Xiuyun to the bus station. Seeing Sheng Anning also carrying her luggage to the bus station, she was a little curious: "Where are you going? I don't even know where your in-laws are."
Sheng Anning didn't care: "Hongqi Town."
Li Guiling exclaimed: "Why did you marry to such a remote place?"
There are seven county towns in Longbei City, and Hongqi Town is located in the mountains of the poorest county town. Because it is in a mountain valley, it is dry and has little rain all year round, making it a truly poor mountain valley.
Sheng Anning didn't explain what Zhou Shixun did, but just praised him with a thick filter: "I think Hongqi Town is pretty good."
The three of them chatted as they walked to the station. To Sheng An Ning's surprise, she met Zhong Wenqing and an elegant middle-aged man at the station entrance.
