Chapter 570 Visiting Friends
"Your brother Zheng is at work. Others can sleep well, but they don't have such a thing as a sleepless night."
Grandma Zheng smiled and put the snacks next to Xu Lin, "Eat first, I'll make you a cup of maltose."
"Grandma Zheng, please stop being busy. I'll be leaving in a while. I have to go see other friends."
Xu Lin hurriedly tried to dissuade Grandma Zheng, thinking that she had to go see Han Hong, Sun Huaisheng and Han Meimei, and also see the patients on hand.
Han Meimei came to Qingshan County half a month ago and was assigned to assist Sun Huaisheng in the name of a nurse.
I don't know if she is used to it.
While Xu Lin was thinking quickly, Grandma Zheng's voice came over.
"You're just going to sit for a while and leave? That won't work. You have to stay for dinner today no matter what you say." Grandma Zheng frowned.
"Last time you said you would come home for dinner when you have time. Tell me, how long has it been since then?"
Xu Lin laughed out loud when asked this question. It had been a long time. She hadn't expected that she would be away for so long.
I feel quite embarrassed.
"Okay, I'll stay for lunch today and then go see them after lunch." Xu Lin compromised.
"Well, that's more like it. Grandma will make you something delicious at noon."
Grandma Zheng smiled widely. She put maltose in front of Xu Lin so that she could warm her hands. Then she sat down opposite Xu Lin.
Grandma Zheng did not ask what Xu Lin did outside, she only asked if Xu Lin was injured, bullied, whether she ate well, and whether she was warmly dressed.
The old man was very concerned about confidentiality and would not ask any questions that were not necessary.
Xu Lin was concerned about Grandma Zheng's health, asking if she felt any discomfort after the weather changed. If she felt unwell, she should tell him/her about it as soon as possible so that she could receive treatment.
That heartwarming gesture moved Grandma Zheng deeply.
Two people who care about each other have a lot to talk about, as if they have endless things to say.
Mr. Zheng did not come back at noon, and Mrs. Zheng and the children from her parents' home did not come back either. Only Xu Lin and Grandma Zheng had lunch.
Even so, Grandma Zheng still made six dishes. She was not afraid of wasting anything and was afraid that if she made too little, Xu Lin would not be full.
I was even more afraid of neglecting Xu Lin.
In Grandma Zheng's heart, Xu Lin is the benefactor of the Zheng family. Not only did she cure her illness, but she also cured Si Zhan.
Yes, Grandma Zheng also accepted the Si family’s kindness and planned to repay them when she had the chance.
As for hoping Si Zhan would return the favor, Grandma Zheng didn't count on it.
Si Zhan is just a research maniac. What does he know about the ways of the world?
He had made great achievements in his research, so he should have taken some time off, right?
No, Si Zhan has started a new research project and is still busy and rarely seen every day.
I wanted him to take some time out to have a physical check-up but he couldn't find it.
Grandma Zheng felt that not many people could tolerate Si Zhan's temper, and even if there were, they were supported by their beliefs and ideals.
After all, marrying someone who can make significant contributions to the country is an honor in itself and can bring great spiritual enjoyment.
Si Zhan couldn't spare the time, but Grandma Zheng couldn't let go of her worry about him, so they talked about Si Zhan again.
Grandma Zheng asked with a worried look on her face: "Linlin, can you spare some time to visit him? He can see outsiders now."
"Sure, please let me know when you have arranged the time, and I will arrange a time for you to see the doctor."
Xu Lin is currently busy with a mission and cannot guarantee that she will be available whenever you call, so it is better to arrange a time first.
"Okay, okay, I'll call Si Zhan's leader later and have him work out the exact time with Si Zhan."
Grandma Zheng couldn't help but complain when she said this, Si Zhan's concept of time is all spent on research, and the time he agreed upon at other times is like fart.
If you don't check with your leader, you'll probably end up with nothing.
I never noticed that Si Zhan had this problem before.
Grandma Zheng didn't understand, but Xu Lin did. She thought Si Zhan treated every day as if it was earned, and didn't want to waste even a moment.
It’s just that Si Zhan puts all his energy into research, which is actually unfair to his family.
Alas, Xu Lin couldn't help shaking her head, and at the same time she admired Mrs. Si. If it were her, she would definitely not be able to bear it.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when Xu Lin left Zheng's house. It gets dark early in winter, so Xu Lin didn't dare to waste time and hurried to the county hospital.
Xu Lin was lucky. When she arrived, Sun Huaisheng and Han Meimei were both in the office.
One teaches seriously, the other learns seriously, and the relationship between master and apprentice seems very good.
Seeing Xu Lin coming in, Sun Huaisheng immediately gave her a smile, and Han Meimei stomped her feet excitedly.
Finally I saw my idol again.
Before learning Chinese medicine, Han Meimei only knew that Chinese medicine was cool and powerful.
After studying Chinese medicine, Han Meimei realized how amazing it was to become a big name in Chinese medicine.
Xu Lin has such amazing medical skills at such a young age, he must have worked very hard.
Following the example of her idol, Han Meimei studied very hard, which made Sun Huaisheng very happy. He didn't expect that he would have such a talented apprentice at his old age.
After seeing the patient off, Sun Huaisheng greeted Xu Lin.
"When did you come back?"
"I came back the day before yesterday." Xu Lin kicked the sack forward, "I brought you some goodies."
"What good stuff?" Han Meimei asked, leaning over her head curiously.
Sun Huaisheng's eyes also fell on the sack. He knew that Xu Lin had a lot of good things in his hands.
"Twenty kilograms of soybean oil, ten kilograms for you and Mr. Sun, ten kilograms of pork fat, and..."
As Xu Lin called out the name, Sun Huaisheng's eyes lit up several shades.
Even Han Meimei's eyes have changed. When she was abroad, Han Meimei had some understanding of poverty, but not so deep.
Dragon Country is really too poor. They need tickets for everything from food to clothing and daily necessities. That is a poverty that money alone cannot buy.
Apart from anything else, the meat alone left a deep impression on Han Meimei.
When she was abroad, Han Meimei could never have imagined that one day she would drool three feet long for a piece of meat.
"You're awesome." Sun Huaisheng gave her a thumbs up and didn't push it away, nor was he willing to do so.
The New Year is coming soon, and these good things are so hard to get.
Han Meimei also gave him an admiring look, saying that the master was indeed amazing, he could even handle a large airplane.
"Are you going home for the New Year?" Xu Lin asked Han Meimei.
"No, I'm spending the New Year here." Han Meimei whispered in Xu Lin's ear.
"They have entered the base. They probably won't come out until they figure it out. There will be no one to accompany me when I go back."
Xu Lin raised an eyebrow and understood. Once you enter the research base, it will be difficult to leave without fully understanding the project. One reason is to avoid leaks, and the other is for the sake of research progress.
In short, no matter what the reason is, Han Meimei is facing the situation of being alone.
"Where are you going for the New Year? Do you want to spend the New Year with me?" Xu Lin asked.
"Is it okay?" Han Meimei widened her eyes. She wanted to spend the New Year with Xu Lin, she really wanted to.
This is an idol. Being next to an idol is like bubbling with happiness.
