Yuan Ziqing also knew that her in-laws were planning to kick her out. She was still lying on the hospital bed, waiting for Meng Hongying to come in. Yuan Ziqing's eyes immediately turned red, tears welled up in her eyes, her face turned pale, her nose turned red, and she looked so pitiful.
Meng Hongying was immediately distressed, "Oh my Qingqing, where are you hurt? Let mom take a look."
"Mom, my hands hurt, my waist hurts, and my whole body hurts. Look at my hands. The doctor said that if I don't take good care of them, I might become disabled. My waist is also badly injured and I can't move it now.
Mom, I just wanted to call my sister home for dinner, but I don’t know what I did to make my sister so unhappy that she pushed me so hard and stepped on my hand! I…”
Meng Hongying was stunned for a moment when she saw the lady in front of her. "Qingqing, your sister was at home just now, and she has explained it clearly. Your injury... was not caused by your sister pushing you, but Meimei Xiaoxin fell on you, right?"
Yuan Ziqing's expression froze for a second, then she stretched out her hands to Meng Hongying and started crying, "Mom, I was stunned when I fell, and my head was dizzy. When I came to my senses, I only saw my sister standing in front of me, and I thought she was the one who did it.
I didn't intend to slander her, you know my sister has always liked me."
Meng Hongying immediately put away her guilt.
She said that her Qingqing would definitely lie, "Oh, it turns out that you recognized the wrong person. It's okay, Qingqing, wait for your sister to come back and apologize to her. Because of this, Mom didn't mean to beat your sister."
Yuan Ziqing raised her eyebrows slightly, with a look of satisfaction and joy on her face.
That bitch Yuan Bing must be hating her mother to death now. It would be best if she never visits the Yuan family again in her life. This way, she will be the only daughter of the Yuan family, and her parents and brothers will only love her.
How come he didn't starve to death outside or get kidnapped by traffickers back then? Yuan Bing was such a lucky bastard.
…
At this time, Yuan Bing and Cheng Yunan had already returned to Yuan Bing's dormitory.
"Yuan Bing, let me apply some medicine on your face so it can heal faster."
"Then I'll trouble you, Nannan." Yuan Bing also didn't want to be talked about in the hospital with a palm print on his face.
After taking the medicine, Yuan Bing only felt a cool feeling on her face, and the burning pain was gone.
"Nannan, what kind of medicine is that in your hand? It works so well!"
Cheng Yunan admired her for being able to remain calm even after being beaten by her own mother.
"I made this myself. It's specially made for treating injuries. It works pretty well. I'll make you another bottle some other day."
"Ah! You can prepare medicine yourself?" Yuan Bing really didn't expect it.
She originally studied Western medicine in school and was a surgeon. So, although she wanted to learn Chinese medicine, it was not given much attention in school and she had few opportunities to learn it.
"Well, I know a little, but I haven't treated many patients, so I can do simple pulse taking and acupuncture. As for prescribing medicine and treating diseases, I have only learned about it and lack practical experience." Cheng Yunan said.
The main reason is that she doesn't have the opportunity. Although she has been learning, she has actually treated very few patients.
"I think your ointment is very useful. After just applying it for a while, the pain has gone away. I believe you must be very good at treating illnesses and saving lives." Yuan Bing really felt that Cheng Yunan was an exceptionally capable person.
"I have to thank you for your trust. When we get back, I'll give you two more bottles."
"That's great. I won't be polite to you. You know, those in my family are soldiers. In order to avoid having injuries or bruises all day long, we can bring them back for use in the Korean War." Yuan Bing said readily.
"Okay, I'll send it to you in the evening." Cheng Yunan decided to prepare the medicine as soon as he got back.
Most of the medicines I prepared for Lu Shiye before have been used up. I'll take this opportunity to prepare some more of these common medicines, such as hemostatic pills and anti-inflammatory drugs, for backup.
"I'm going back to the hospital first! Go slowly on your way back!"
"Well, go ahead and don't worry about me."
Separated from Yuan Bing, Cheng Yunan moved two baskets of supplies out of the space.
It's not easy to come here, so I have to save enough money.
When the aunts and sisters-in-law from other compounds came over, they saw a bulging backpack placed on the back.
"Hey, Captain Lu, you've got a lot of supplies this time. I can even smell pork!"
"You have a long nose, you can smell it even through several layers of cloth."
"Hey! You know what I mean. Who cares about pork? You only smell it a few times a year. And I just went to the meat stall and all the meat was sold out. Where did you get this meat, my wife?"
Upon hearing this, several military wives pricked up their ears, apparently waiting to hear Cheng Yunan's answer.
Cheng Yunan looked a little panicked. "I just came here and have only been to the meat stand once. How can I compare with you sisters-in-law? You didn't buy anything, but I bought more.
I didn’t go to the meat stall. I just met a fellow villager who was trading wild boar meat on the way to the hospital. I exchanged two large bones for them and took them home to stew cabbage vermicelli to get some meat flavor.”
What a good thing!
If they had known earlier, they would have been running around waiting on the roadside.
The meat is grabbed, and the big bone stick is also a good thing!
The key is that this thing is expensive for making soup, and the bone sticks contain bone marrow. It is very delicious to add sweet potato fries to the stewed cabbage!
"Hey... Luying wife, how much is this big bone stick of yours? Maybe we can get something good like this next time!"
It's just luck.
Even though soldiers have salaries and allowances for all ages, they still have families to support and elderly people at home to support. Many military wives can only take care of the children at home. It is basically one person's salary that supports an entire family. It was a time of scarcity of supplies. Even though big bones have no meat, they are still a valuable item to be fought over.
"I bought two and planned to take another one every two days. I had no choice but to take more since I was pregnant. The doctor asked me to take more. I spent fifty cents in total."
Fifty cents! You can buy 700-800 grams of pork belly.
Some people were discouraged by the price, but a few military wives were eager to try it, thinking of trying their luck next time.
"When you are pregnant, you need to eat more to nourish your body. By the way, my wife from the Land Forces, how many months have you been pregnant?"
The military wife was almost here, and the driver Liu was ready to drive.
"My four and a half months."
"Oh my, your belly is so big after just four months, you need to make up for it! I tell you, you can't eat too much, it's bad to have a big belly, and you will suffer! Listen to my sister-in-law, just eat a little dinner when you go back to fill your belly."
When she was pregnant, her mother-in-law would feed her at night. But when she gave birth, her belly was not as big as when she was four months pregnant. When she gave birth, it was as easy as farting.
Cheng Yunan could tell the difference between kindness and provocation, and knew that her sister-in-law was sincerely advising her, so she smiled and said, "Yes, the doctor said that I am pregnant with twins, so my belly looks a little bigger. But I accept your opinion, sister-in-law. I will supplement my nutrition appropriately and not overdo it."
"Oh! Twins! No wonder your belly looks bigger than others. Oh, Captain Lu is so lucky."
"Who said that? I've been in the family home for so long, but this is the first time I've heard of a woman having twins!"
"That's terrible! The Lu Ying will definitely hurt me to death now!"
"That's only right. Even if you live in our house, you have to treat me like a treasure!"
The sisters-in-law chatted and laughed, and they all felt that Cheng Yunan was easy to get along with!
