There are very few people hospitalized in the hospital now; Ran Jinnian didn't see many.
When she returned to her ward, she saw a strange man standing there.
The other person was in his early forties, wearing a military uniform, and appeared to be of a slightly lower rank than Lu Jinyuan.
He wasn't particularly handsome, but as a soldier, he had a certain imposing presence.
Upon seeing Ran Jinnian, he greeted her warmly: "You must be my sister-in-law. My name is Li Pengxing. My wife is Yu Xiuzhi."
Although his rank was lower than Lu Jinyuan's, his military service and age were both greater than Lu Jinyuan's, so it was not a problem for him to address Ran Jinnian in this way.
Ran Jinnian suddenly realized that he was Yu Xiuzhi's man.
"It's Deputy Regiment Commander Li, what brings you here?" Ran Jinnian knew why he had come.
A hint of coldness flashed in Li Pengxing's eyes, but his expression remained unreadable: "Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry. My wife is easily swayed by rumors and said those stupid things. I've already taught her a lesson. I hope you'll be magnanimous and not hold it against her."
Look at what he's saying. If she keeps nitpicking, she'll be petty, which is bad for the unity of the family compound.
Ran Jinnian said magnanimously, "Why should I argue with Sister-in-law Yu? The military region has already punished her for her mistake."
Li Pengxing: "......."
That was a perfectly watertight statement.
The military region has already handled the matter, so she naturally won't hold it against them.
Li Pengxing was just showing his face; after all, Yu Xiuzhi, that idiot, was his wife.
Husband and wife are one.
He had to come and make a statement.
However, seeing Lu Jinyuan like this, he felt very pleased.
“What my sister-in-law said is true; she has deeply realized her mistakes,” Li Pengxing echoed Ran Jinnian’s words.
“It’s kind of Li to come and visit my Jin Yuan.”
Ran Jinnian could easily see through his intentions; anyone could say nice things.
"Not at all, it's my duty."
Li Pengxing handed over the net bag he was carrying: "Commander Lu has suffered so much, here's some food. It'll help him recover."
"No, no, we can't accept this." Ran Jinnian definitely wouldn't accept his things.
Li Pengxing sighed softly: "Sister-in-law, if you don't accept it, it means you're still blaming your sister-in-law."
Ran Jinnian wasn't buying it: "Deputy Commander Li, what are you saying? It's not that I don't want to accept it, it's just that Jin Yuan can't accept it in his current condition."
Li Pengxing: "......."
His lips twitched: "Can't finish it?"
"Yes, Jin Yuan can only drink porridge now; he can't eat anything else, as it will harm his spleen and stomach," Ran Jin Nian said deliberately at the end.
Li Pengxing could only say, "It's my fault. I thought Commander Lu could have some."
"Thank you, Deputy Commander Li. We appreciate your kind gesture."
"Then I won't bother you any longer. I'll come see Commander Lu again later."
"Take care, Deputy Commander Li."
Ran Jinnian didn't even send it.
He left.
Before Lu's mother could speak, she said, "Jin Nian, hurry up and eat your breakfast, or it will get cold."
Ran Jinnian opened the lunchbox and found that Lu's mother had made her egg pancakes, each one particularly substantial.
"Mom, you should eat too." Ran Jinnian stuffed a piece into Lu's mother's hand.
"I've already eaten."
"There are so many pancakes, I can't finish them all by myself."
Ran Jinnian knew that her mother and mother-in-law were frugal, so this egg pancake must have been made especially for her.
Lu's mother wanted to put the lunchbox back.
"Mom, what did you put in this pancake? It smells strange." Ran Jinnian pretended to be puzzled.
What does it taste like?
"Try it."
Lu's mother took a bite: "It doesn't taste like anything?"
"Try it again."
Lu's mother ate a few more bites: "I couldn't taste it."
After she finished eating, she saw Ran Jinnian secretly smiling, and then she realized what was happening: "Jinnian, how could you lie to me?"
