Ying Mingcheng ran to the compound, and a group of people came to see him early the next morning, most of them were childhood friends with whom he grew up.
Mu Huaixi held Xiaohui in her arms and followed him to meet men and women.
It has to be said that people from Northeast China are generally bigger in build. All of Ying Mingcheng's childhood friends, both boys and girls, are at least a head taller than her. She had been smiling with her face tilted back the whole morning, and her cheeks and neck were sore.
Most of her childhood friends were very polite to her and brought gifts to Xiao Wuhui, so she gained a lot.
"Xiao Xi is amazing. She has made great contributions in the health center. Now her leader has asked her to study in the military hospital. She will go to Shengjing Medical College in the spring!" Grandma was very proud and praised her several times. She was even happier than when Ying Mingcheng made great contributions and received a military medal.
"Going to Shengjing Medical College? My cousin is there. I'll introduce him to you before school starts. If you need anything, feel free to ask him for help."
The speaker was Li Feiyan, the daughter of the Youth League Committee. When Mu Huaixi heard the introduction, his heart skipped a beat and he thought he had seen the "Sister Yan" that Hua Yingbiao mentioned.
But Li Feiyan was younger than Ying Mingcheng, and there was no admiration in her eyes when she looked at him. She just simply respected her elder brother. Moreover, she had a cheerful personality and was very enthusiastic towards him.
Mu Huaixi was not afraid of "Sister Yan". She believed in Brother Cheng and her grandparents. However, anyone who went to her husband's hometown and heard people supporting her man and another woman would feel a little bit uncomfortable.
But when she saw so many childhood friends this morning, she felt more enthusiasm and welcome, and gradually adjusted her attitude. Ying Mingcheng was undoubtedly excellent, and it was normal for him to receive admiring looks.
But she couldn't be wary of everyone just because of Hua Yingbiao's nonsense. That would be too petty and she would miss out on friends who really wanted to interact with her.
Just as she was getting her composure right, she heard someone grumble, "You've made such great contributions at a health center in the mountains, and yet you're able to study at the Military Medical University in Shengjing? Grandma Ying has thrown everything out there just to flatter her grandson's wife. Who would believe that?"
Mu Huaixi raised his head and looked towards the source of the sound.
She was the only one in the main hall at that time. Her grandmother was called to the kitchen, Ying Mingcheng went to see off the brothers who had visited earlier, and the person who was talking was one of the new visitors. Mu Huaixi remembered him. His name was Tian Zhang, and he had just called him Brother Cheng affectionately.
Tian Zhang didn't even look at her when he spoke, as if he was chatting with someone next to him, but he didn't think of avoiding her at all. In short, he didn't take her seriously.
Mu Huaixi raised an eyebrow, called Aunt Xiaoluo over, handed Wu Hui to her, and walked over to Tian Zhang. He smiled and asked, "Did you hear you talking about me?"
“…”
Perhaps they hadn't expected her to be so direct, and everyone around here was stunned. The girl standing opposite Tian Zhang looked embarrassed and waved her hands, just as she was about to explain, she heard Tian Zhang stiffen his neck and say, "Yes, I'm talking about you. What are your abilities and achievements?"
He stood up, at least two heads taller than Mu Huaixi. His thick, unruly eyebrows were raised high, and he looked her up and down. "I heard that you only studied in junior high school. How dare you go to medical school and embarrass yourself?"
Mu Huaixi looked at him quietly, which made him almost angry.
"What are you looking at?!" Tian Zhang paused and took back the last few words. He looked down on Ying Mingcheng's wife, but he also knew that he was in the Ying family and could not go too far.
"Tian Zhang, don't mess around," the woman standing behind Tian Zhang on the right came out. She was tall and beautiful, wearing a white mink coat. It was obvious that she was not a girl from an ordinary family.
Mu Huaixi had just heard their introduction and knew that the woman's name was Liang Hongran. She was the eldest daughter of the current commander of the Shengjing Military Region and was vaguely considered a leader among this group of people.
When Tian Zhang heard what Liang Hongran said, he was obviously still very unconvinced, but he pursed his lips and did not say anything back. He supported his knees and tried to sit back down.
Mu Huaixi didn't let him go. Her eyes fell on Liang Hongran, and she interrupted her before she could speak. "It's better to let the child speak if he wants to. Otherwise, he will get sick if he holds it in for too long."
"......", Liang Hongran frowned, not understanding why she suddenly said that. In terms of age, she should be about the same as Tian Zhang, but she insisted on saying that Tian Zhang was a child. Was she relying on Ying Mingcheng to look down on them?
Liang Hongran found it funny. She originally wanted to apologize on behalf of Tian Zhang, but now she wanted to listen to what Ying Mingcheng's wife had to say.
The people around her also frowned because of this sentence, but seeing that she was waiting with her arms folded, they did not rush to speak.
Mu Huaixi smiled. She really wasn't looking for trouble. Tian Zhang had many pimples on his forehead, which was in stark contrast to his complexion. It was obvious that he was worried.
Judging from the way he repeatedly looked at Liang Hongran and his clenched fists on his knees, the only people who could make him willingly suffer injustice were probably the people around him.
She flicked her hand, and two cowhide ropes popped out from her sleeves and wrapped around Tian Zhang's wrists. This was a little trick she had practiced when she was bored during her confinement period. It actually scared Tian Zhang.
"You, you, you, what are you going to do?!" He backed away again and again, almost breaking the tendon rope.
Mu Huaixi followed him forward two steps, smiling kindly, "Didn't you ask me what skills I have? I'll show you some."
"Don't move."
Perhaps it was because Mu Huaixi's gaze was too sharp, Tian Zhang froze in place for a moment. After a few breaths, he straightened his face, raised his arm, and swung away the rope around his wrist.
"Who asked you to take my pulse? Using a rope to take my pulse? Do you think you're Sun Wukong?!"
"Why did you proclaim yourself king?" Mu Huaixi had also read Journey to the West. He smiled and retracted the rubber band. Although it was only for a few breaths, it was enough.
Tian Zhang's face was almost purpler than an eggplant. Liang Hongran shook her head in disagreement, "Tian Zhang may have offended you with his words, but you don't have to tease him like this."
Mu Huaixi saw her face suddenly turn bad, and sensed someone approaching from behind, so he knew that Ying Mingcheng had returned.
"What's wrong?" Ying Mingcheng stood behind her out of habit. With his keen eyesight, he could see that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the main hall.
Tian Zhang's eggplant face suddenly frosted with cold frost. Liang Hongran pursed her lips and was about to speak when she saw Mu Huaixi smiling and shaking her head, "Tian Zhang asked me to treat him."
Liang Hongran felt relieved. She didn't expect that she didn't complain. But then she thought about it and felt something was wrong. Her words directly made Tian Zhang a sick patient.
"This woman is not simple," Liang Hongran cheered up. Tian Zhang came with her, and she couldn't bear to see her brother suffer.
Ying Mingcheng looked around, and everyone standing behind Liang Hongran turned their eyes away. It was not because they were afraid, but the gaze of someone who had struggled through the mountains of corpses and seas of fire was not something they, the greenhouse flowers, could withstand.
"What disease did Tian Zhang have?" Ying Mingcheng could tell at a glance that Mu Huaixi should not have suffered any loss, so he continued to talk along with her.
