"Let's go and take a look together."
After listening to Mu Huaixi's story, Jiang Wenyuan frowned and pushed his bicycle out.
He had dealt with Hu Ziqiang before. This guy was good in every way except that he had a very tough temper. In other words, he was too stubborn.
Wang Xiaoshui was hiding this from both sides because he was really afraid that Hu Ziqiang would do something stupid in a fit of anger.
The regiment headquarters was so small that they quickly found Ying Mingcheng and the angry Hu Ziqiang who was trying to get into the tube building.
"What is this?" Mu Huaixi was a little confused. What was Wang Xiaoshui doing hiding in the tube-shaped building with his children?
Ying Mingcheng shook his head at her, pulled her wrist and followed her. He saw Hu Ziqiang knocking on the door loudly and even pushed Jiang Wenyuan forward.
Jiang Wenyuan staggered and turned to look at Ying Mingcheng in disbelief, but shook his head helplessly when he saw Mu Huaixi.
So the two men protected her, one on the left and one on the right, one far and one close. Ying Mingcheng also pulled her a few steps to the side to ensure that she could see inside and outside the door without being bumped.
"What are you doing? The door is broken!" The person who opened the door complained unhappily, but when he saw the person in front of the door clearly, he pulled the door back in an instant. He was so strong that even Hu Ziqiang, a soldier, couldn't stop him.
"What are you doing?! Our husband isn't home. Come back when he gets back!" The sister-in-law's tone was very harsh. It sounded reasonable, but it also revealed a sense of guilt. After all, most people in the family compound had gotten to know each other by now. How could they be so rude to someone who came in?
"Cough, cough, cough," Hu Ziqiang covered his mouth and nose, but did not give up knocking on the door. "Mrs. Huang, open the door! I know Wang Xiaoshui is in there! I'm here to find her!"
Jiang Wenyuan was slow to notice the smell coming from the house and turned to look at Mu Huaixi. Mu Huaixi nodded at him. The house did indeed smell like burning mugwort, but there was something else.
"Open the door!"
"Open the door!"
"Wang Xiaoshui, I know you are in the room! Open the door quickly!"
The tube-shaped building had little soundproofing. Hu Ziqiang was making such a fuss outside the door, but there was silence inside. However, a child's wailing could be heard from the house next door. The crying became louder and louder. Suddenly, the door next door was opened, and another family member who was holding the child impatiently poked his head out. "Huang Junya, why don't you just open the door! Wang Xiaoshui often comes here with the child. Everyone on this floor knows it! You're hiding someone's wife and child in your room. What are you doing?!"
After she finished speaking, she glared at Hu Ziqiang angrily and went back to the house with the crying child in her arms. Mu Huaixi instantly felt her mother's fighting spirit. This should be the time when the child was taking a nap. If he was woken up, he would probably be restless for the whole afternoon.
Mu Huaixi was distracted for a moment, and when she looked back, the door in front of Hu Ziqiang was already open. Wang Xiaoshui appeared inside the door impatiently and embarrassedly. Half of her body was hidden behind the door, still holding it to prevent Hu Ziqiang from looking inside, but she turned the tables on him, "Hu Ziqiang! Are you here to catch someone cheating? I'm with Xiaofeng, how could anyone bring a child to see their lover?! If you don't want to live with this anymore, just say so!"
"Where is Xiaofeng?" Hu Ziqiang ignored her nagging and pushed the door open to go in and find Xiaofeng.
"Xiaofeng is doing moxibustion, didn't I tell you?" Wang Xiaoshui got angry and pushed the door hard, almost pinching Hu Ziqiang's hand.
Hu Ziqiang was also furious. "You f*cking told me you were taking Xiaofeng to see Doctor Mu for moxibustion. Doctor Mu was outside, so who was doing the moxibustion in that room? When did Sister Huang learn this skill? Why didn't you talk to Sister Yu and ask her to transfer you to the health center?!"
"Wang Xiaoshui, I'm telling you, I don't care whether you're here to meet a wild man or what else you're doing. I want to see Xiaofeng now! I only care about my son, and I just want to see him be well!"
He fired at the door in front of him like a machine gun. The people inside seemed to be arguing. After a while, the door was opened and Mrs. Huang jumped out of the house as if she had been bitten by a snake. She waved her hands at Hu Ziqiang and said, "I didn't do anything. I just lent them the house..."
These words were too ambiguous, and Hu Ziqiang's face turned pale. He pushed Hu Xiaofeng away and rushed into the house, but was choked by the smoke in the house and couldn't open his eyes.
"Cough cough cough cough, what are you doing?!"
Mu Huaixi and the others also came over, but before she could get close, she was stopped by Wang Xiaoshui, who gritted his teeth and demanded, "You again?! You're the one complaining again?!"
"......", Mu Huaixi glanced at her lightly and didn't want to talk to this crazy woman at all, but she couldn't go into the house at the first time because the house looked too weird.
The structures of the tube-shaped buildings are similar. The living rooms are open from north to south, allowing light and ventilation, but this room is very dark and filled with smoke, making it impossible to see what is inside.
"Cough cough cough cough...Xiaofeng!" Hu Ziqiang's figure was submerged in the smoke, and his voice was hurried and a little unclear. No one knew what he saw or who he was talking to. "Xiaofeng?! Xiaofeng?! What did you do to Xiaofeng?!"
Mu Huaixi wanted to go in curiously, but was stopped by Ying Mingcheng, "Wait a minute, I'll go in and take a look first."
Ying Mingcheng and Jiang Wenyuan went in first. They even carefully covered each other. Soon the curtains in the house were drawn, the windows were opened, and a breeze suddenly blew in, blowing away the thick smoke.
Mu Huaixi stepped into the house curiously, and was greeted by a pair of strange eyes. The person was sitting on a huge fur, and her body was covered with huge blood-red eye lines, and even her arms and face had patterns.
The bloodstains around her eyes made her look so eerie.
The way she was dressed really didn't seem like someone from this era. Mu Huaixi was a little dazed for a moment. Before she could investigate, she heard Hu Ziqiang crying out, "Xiaofeng! Xiaofeng, wake up!"
Jiang Wenyuan was already checking the child's vital signs, and Mu Huaixi also half-squatted down. Hu Xiaofeng's face was rosy and it looked like there was nothing wrong with him, but he couldn't be woken up no matter how hard he tried.
"He's fine. He'll be in trouble if you guys barge in like this."
The person's pronunciation was very strange. Mu Huaixi suddenly realized that this was someone's wife!
"What did you do to Xiaofeng?" Hu Ziqiang held Xiaofeng's face, but found a blood mark on his ear. He immediately grabbed the man's collar with red eyes and questioned loudly.
Mu Huaixi also saw the wound. It didn't look like an intentional injury, but rather like an ancient bloodletting therapy.
There were also traces of moxibustion burns on the back of Xiaofeng's ears. This person might really know how to do moxibustion. She looked carefully and found a circle of black ash around Xiaofeng's mouth.
"What should I do? I'll treat him!"
