Mrs. Wang reached out to grab Su Jinyue, but Su Jinyue dodged her.
She could only quickly walk to Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan, stop them, and look at them with a pleading face. She had heard that Su Jinyue's medical skills were not even as good as those of foreign doctors. If she couldn't cure it, how could others possibly do it? She didn't want to be a mute for the rest of her life.
"Caizhen, why are you stopping the warband commander and the others?" Wang Kequn, Wang's husband, approached. Was Caizhen crazy? Didn't she know she was the commander of a company under the warband commander? If she displeased the warband commander, his life would be miserable. Ever since the warband commander arrived, they'd been living in dire straits; the daily mountain climbing with heavy loads was just the beginning.
When He Caizhen heard her husband's voice, she quickly turned her head with joy, pointed at her throat, and then pointed at Su Jinyue.
"Caizhen, have you been bitten by a bee? Your mouth is swollen like two sausages." Wang Kequn's eyes nearly popped out of his head when he saw He Caizhen's mouth swollen like sausages. He hadn't noticed until he saw his wife stopping Zhan Yihan and ran over.
He Caizhen was so angry she nearly passed out. Did he think she wanted her mouth to be like a sausage? She was still in so much pain.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Wang Kequn was puzzled when he saw his wife just staring at him without saying a word. There were a lot of bees outside right now, but this was too precise. If it weren't for his patience and the fact that he was her husband, he would have been unable to hold back his laughter. It was really funny; it was the first time he had seen someone's mouth swollen so voluptuously.
He Caizhen gritted her teeth and pointed at her throat. She just wanted to talk.
Wang Kequn cleared his throat and held back his laughter, saying, "I'll take you to the military hospital." He hoped there wouldn't be any sequelae with his mouth being so swollen.
He Caizhen couldn't hold back her anger, so she kicked Wang Kequn hard and walked out quickly. How could she marry such a stupid man?
"Hey! Wait for me." Wang Kequn nodded apologetically to Zhan Yihan and chased after He Caizhen. Women all love beauty, so he could understand why she was a little angry with her mouth swollen like that.
He Caizhen lowered her head and walked quickly out of the auditorium.
"Sister Wang, where are you going? What's wrong with your mouth?"
"Mrs. Wang, are you being stared at by a bee? When I saw you from a distance just now, I thought you were holding two sausages in your mouth."
"I thought so too. Being stared at by a bee should not be taken lightly. Let's go to the military hospital and have a look." People kept greeting He Caizhen along the way, but everyone's eyes were focused on He Caizhen's mouth.
Hearing everyone's mocking words, He Caizhen quickened her pace and walked towards the military hospital. She wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Su Jinyue retracted her gaze and reached out to tap Zhan Yihan's nose. "You're pretty bad." Women value appearance the most. How could she look good with two sausages hanging from her face? But she liked the feeling of being cared for by him, and even more so his domineering attitude that wouldn't tolerate anyone bullying her.
Zhan Yihan raised his lips and smiled, "Otherwise I won't learn my lesson." His Jin Yue was his treasure, and no one could scold or criticize her. Otherwise, he would show no mercy.
"Let's go, let's go say hello to the commander." Su Jinyue smiled sweetly and pulled Zhan Yihan towards the middle-aged man.
"Commander!" Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan walked up to the middle-aged man and greeted him.
Wu Junyu saw that it was Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue, and he smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Su Jinyue's hand. "I've heard of you for a long time, and I've always wanted to meet you, but I've been too busy lately."
"I feel embarrassed when you say that, Commander. I should be the one who goes to visit." Su Jinyue said with a smile.
Wu Junyu laughed heartily and patted Zhan Yihan on the shoulder. "Xiao Zhan, you're so lucky." He greatly admired both Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan. Su Jinyue's medical skills were legendary; there was practically no illness she couldn't cure. And the Qinglian Pills she provided to the troops free of charge had saved countless lives. As long as Zhan Yihan took action, there was no mission he couldn't accomplish; he truly earned the title of 'God of War.'
"I always feel that I am very lucky." Zhan Yihan looked at Su Jinyue, and she was the only one in his deep eyes.
Su Jinyue smiled coquettishly, "Commander, isn't your wife here with you?" She originally wanted to visit the couple, but after coming here, she had almost no free time.
"She has caught a cold these two days and is resting at home," said Wu Junyu.
"Then I'll go visit the Commander's wife later," Su Jinyue said. The rice dumpling wrapping competition only lasted for the morning, and she had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she and Yihan went to visit the Commander and his wife.
Wu Junyu smiled and nodded, "Okay." His wife had wanted to see Su Jinyue for a long time, but Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan were too busy. This time they had been missing for almost four months, and he was worried that something had happened to them.
At this time, a female soldier walked onto the stage and clapped her hands to the crowd. "Hello, comrades! Hello, military wives! I'm so glad we can gather together today to participate in this 'Deep Love for Zongzi' event. Now, please take your seats, all the couples participating. We'll officially begin this event at 9:00."
As she finished speaking, everyone present rushed towards the long table.
"You guys are going to participate this time too, right?" Wu Junyu asked Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan with a smile.
"Yes." Su Jinyue nodded in response.
"Then go quickly and make a few more dumplings for me later." Wu Junyu said with a smile.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan nodded and walked towards the long table.
"Xiao Su, come here." Tian Cuifang saw Su Jinyue and waved at her. She had already reserved a seat for Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan.
Su Jinyue smiled faintly and walked towards Tian Cuifang with Zhan Yihan.
"Xiao Su, have you ever made rice dumplings before?" Tian Cuifang asked Su Jinyue who was already in place.
"No, this is my first time," Su Jinyue said with a smile. In their previous lives, they never made zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival. Their master didn't know how to make them, and neither she nor Song Yiren had learned. Every Dragon Boat Festival, they would go to town to buy a few. Sometimes, the villagers would give them some as gifts.
"Then I'll teach you." Tian Cuifang picked up the rice dumplings leaves, rolled them into a cone shape, reached out and picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of glutinous rice into the rice dumplings leaves, then put two dates and some more glutinous rice in, wrapped the rice dumplings leaves, then took a straw, bit one end of the straw and started to wrap it. Her hands turned flexibly a few times, and an exquisite rice dumpling was wrapped.
Tian Cuifang handed the wrapped rice dumplings to Su Jinyue and said, "It's very simple to make rice dumplings. You may not be familiar with it at first, but you will get the hang of it as you keep doing it." In her opinion, the most important thing about the competition is participation; winning or losing is not important.
