Su Jinyue returned to the military family compound and was about to push open the small courtyard door when she saw the gate of the next courtyard was opened.
Ma Lingling came out with a garbage bag, saw Su Jinyue, and smiled at her, "Su Jinyue, you just came back?" After she came back, she went to look for Su Jinyue, but no one answered the door after knocking for a long time, so she knew that she was definitely not at home.
"Yeah." Su Jinyue nodded with a smile.
Ma Lingling threw the garbage bag in her hand into the trash can beside her and ran to Su Jinyue, "I heard that you haven't been back to school recently. I thought I could go to and from school with you." After knowing that the sister-in-law Zhan next door was Su Jinyue, she was really happy.
"I've been busy lately, so I've taken a long vacation. I'll go back and take the final exams," Su Jinyue said. She didn't want to be so inactive, but things kept coming one after another, leaving her feeling frustrated. Fortunately, the school gave her a green light, so she didn't have to worry about taking leave.
"With your medical skills, the exam shouldn't be a problem for you," Ma Lingling said with a smile. Su Jinyue could even defeat internationally renowned doctors, so how could a simple theoretical exam stump her?
Su Jinyue smiled and said, "Do you want to come to my house and sit for a while?" She still had a good impression of Ma Lingling.
"I'll go back and wash my hands and come back," Ma Lingling said, turning back to her own courtyard. She had just picked up the garbage bag, and it was always impolite to go to someone else's house like this.
Su Jinyue wanted to call Ma Lingling and ask her to go to her house to wash her hands. Seeing that Ma Lingling had already entered the yard, she smiled, pushed open the gate and waited for Ma Lingling.
"Lingling, where are you going so late?" Zhu Shulan was sitting on the sofa watching TV. Seeing Ma Lingling was about to go out, she asked in surprise.
"I'm going to Su Jinyue's house and will be back in a while." Ma Lingling said.
When Zhu Shulan heard that Ma Lingling was going to Su Jinyue's house, her eyes lit up, "Why are you going empty-handed? Bring the apples I just bought after get off work."
"Sister-in-law, that's fine. I'll just go sit for a while." Ma Lingling said in embarrassment. She had never heard of anyone bringing a gift when visiting a classmate's home to chat. This was too much for her sister-in-law.
"What do you know? Just take her when I tell you to." Zhu Shulan stood up, walked to the table in the living room, picked up a bag of apples, and handed it to Ma Lingling. As the saying goes, if you need Su Jinyue's help in the future, she should be more willing to ask.
"Okay." Ma Lingling reluctantly took the bag of apples and walked outside.
Su Jinyue saw Ma Lingling carrying apples in her hand and said with a smile, "Why are you carrying something else?" They were classmates and neighbors next door, and they would have a lot of time to spend together in the future. It was impossible for her to come here just to give her something, right?
Ma Lingling smiled awkwardly and said, "My sister-in-law asked me to carry it." Perhaps married people think more.
"Come in and sit down." Su Jinyue took Ma Lingling into the house.
After letting Ma Lingling sit down on the sofa, Su Jinyue asked, "What would you like to drink? Tea, soda or juice?" She seldom drinks soda. The soda at home was left over from the wedding in the cafeteria that day. Since there wasn't much left, she was too lazy to return it.
"Let's have some tea," Ma Lingling said. That day, she and her sister-in-law had come to Su Jinyue's house and noticed the unique aroma of the tea she was drinking. She'd had a lot of tea before, but this was her first time experiencing tea with that flavor, so she really wanted to try it.
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, then walked into the kitchen.
After a while, Su Jinyue came out with a pot of tea, some fruits and snacks.
After putting the fruit snacks and tea on the table, Su Jinyue picked up the teapot, poured a cup for Ma Lingling, and handed it to her.
"Thank you!" Ma Lingling took the tea that Su Jinyue handed over and smelled it. It was indeed the same tea fragrance she smelled that day. "Su Jinyue, what kind of tea is this? It smells so good!"
"This is not tea, it's a medicinal herb." Su Jinyue said.
"No wonder I've never smelled this kind of tea before. It turns out it's a medicinal herb. Besides being a tea, does it have any other uses?" Ma Lingling asked. Since it's a medicinal herb, it certainly can't just be used as tea.
"It's good for beauty and nourishing the skin," Su Jinyue said with a smile. Frostleaf Grass was only a low-level spiritual herb, of little use to cultivators, but it had great benefits for ordinary people.
"Your skin is so good because of this tea, isn't it?" Ma Lingling asked. She had always envied Su Jinyue's skin. It wasn't an exaggeration to say it was as smooth as cream, as white as ice and snow. Unlike hers, her skin was not only a little oily, but also had a few freckles under her eyes.
"It might be related," Su Jinyue said with a smile. Of course, it couldn't have been because of the tea, but rather because of the meridian cleansing and marrow cleansing. Only this cleansing could expel all the toxins from the body.
"Can my freckles be removed?" Ma Lingling asked, pointing to the freckles under her eyes.
Su Jinyue nodded, "I'll bring you some tea later. When you finish the tea, your freckles will be gone."
Ma Lingling quickly shook her head and explained: "Jinyue, I don't mean to take your tea for free. I want to ask you how much this tea costs per ounce?" She asked Su Jinyue not to take advantage of her.
"These herbs are all picked from the mountains, and they're free," Su Jinyue said with a smile. She knew Ma Lingling wasn't someone who took advantage of others, otherwise she wouldn't have associated with her.
"Even if it doesn't cost money, I can't take it for free." Ma Lingling said embarrassedly.
"Didn't you give me apples? Let's reciprocate." Su Jinyue put down the teacup in her hand, stood up and walked into the kitchen.
After a while, she came out with a paper bag, handed it to Ma Lingling and said, "Take it, don't be polite to me." There were plenty of frost leaf grasses in her golden leaf world, so it was really nothing to her.
"Thank you!" Ma Lingling took it a little embarrassedly. Should she give Su Jinyue something? But what would Su Jinyue like?
Su Jinyue smiled and shook her head, "It will be more effective if you drink it every morning."
Ma Lingling nodded. "By the way, are you free the day after tomorrow?"
"Is there anything wrong?" Su Jinyue asked.
"It's Xu Xinxin's birthday, and she asked me to treat you to dinner," Ma Lingling said. She had almost forgotten.
"I probably won't be free that day. Please apologize to Xu Xinxin for me," Su Jinyue said. She and Xu Xinxin weren't particularly close, and since she and Lin Muzhu were having some issues, going would have made the atmosphere awkward. Besides, she'd be taking Guo Ying to the Yingli store for an interview tomorrow, and then she'd have to take her mother-in-law and the others back to Shangxin Village. She probably wouldn't be back so soon.
"Okay." Ma Lingling nodded. Since Su Jinyue didn't want to go, there was nothing she could do.
