"Let's carry him onto the cart," Mu Huaixi confirmed his pulse and nodded to Wang Ergou who was waiting anxiously. Xiao Du and Ying Mingcheng on the side lifted Wang Lao Da onto the three-wheeled cart together.
"Thank you, thank you," Wang Ergou babbled incoherently, holding onto the cart to express his loyalty to Xiao Du. "I'll help push the cart. When we get to the hospital, just find a place to cuff me. If I run away, I, Wang Ergou, will be a grandson in this life and a beast in the next!"
This curse was incredibly vicious and bizarre. The young police officer glared at him helplessly and said, "Let's go!"
"I'm going to the hospital to help." Ying Mingcheng took out a package from the building and handed her a ticket. "There's a public bathroom on the second floor of the guesthouse. Wash up and have a good rest. I'll bring you food later."
Mu Huaixi was about to refuse when she felt a chill on the back of her neck, and she broke out in a cold sweat. Her jacket was already thin, and in the biting night wind, it was not very cold. She saw the bulging pink cotton jacket peeking out from the package, and she couldn't help but think, if she were Ying Mingcheng's sister, she would be very happy.
She is the only daughter in the family and has only experienced "plastic sisterhood" with Mu Zhao. Sometimes she feels that if she had brothers and sisters, her life might not be so hard, at least there would be someone to support each other.
It would be great to have a brother like Ying Mingcheng.
As she thought this, she stood up. As soon as she moved, she felt dizzy and fell forward. When Ying Mingcheng supported her and asked her about it, she blurted out without thinking, "Brother, my feet are numb."
“…”
“…”
Mu Huaixi knew that she had said something wrong, and she tried to stand up straight, but she felt a tightness around her waist and was instantly lifted into the air. When she came to her senses, she was already sitting on the cart with the package in her arms. It was Ying Mingcheng who directly pinched her waist and lifted her onto the cart.
"Oh, yes, yes, little doctor, sit tight, I'll push you over!" When Wang Ergou saw her get in the car, he immediately felt like repaying her. If his hands hadn't been handcuffed, he would even want to drive Public Security Officer Xiao Du away and pull the car himself.
"Let's go," Ying Mingcheng deliberately walked in front of her to block the increasingly biting cold wind. When he reached the door, he glared at Mu Huaimin who was squatting timidly at the door. He had just wanted to break in and disturb Mu Huaixi when she was giving her acupuncture, but was held back by the security guard at the door.
Ying Mingcheng handed the security guard a cigarette, and the security guard took it with a smile, put it to his ear, and gave Mu Huaixi on the cart a thumbs up, "Your sister is really good!"
"Yes, my sister is very good," Ying Mingcheng responded with a smile. He turned his head and saw the little girl who wanted to bury him completely, but her red ears revealed everything.
Mu Huaixi came out of the bathroom and changed into a new coat and new shoes. As soon as she put them on, she attracted the attention of the women around her.
"Hey, sister, your hair is so bright!" A sister-in-law with a perm on her head was immediately attracted by her. She looked at her long curly hair and asked enviously, "Where did you get your hair permed? It looks great!"
"My hair is naturally curly," Mu Huaixi wasn't used to being complimented, but she sensed no ill intentions, so she could only whisper a response. She hadn't expected anyone to compliment her hair, which always frizzed up after washing, and she'd put a lot of effort into styling it.
"I'm so envious..." The curly-haired woman didn't expect someone to have hair that was naturally wavy like the way she wanted it. She touched her jacket again and said in surprise, "This is a jacquard satin jacket. It's not made in our county. Where did you buy it?"
"It's a rare item sold at the county department store. I heard it's imported from the south," another older woman came over, wiping her hair. "It was snapped up like crazy as soon as we got here this afternoon. My cousin is a salesperson and she asked me to try it on early, but it's too small for me to wear."
"Exactly, look at that tiny waist." The curly-haired sister-in-law was jealous of her figure. She suddenly pinched her waist and exclaimed, "Wow, your man just hugged her with one hand, didn't he?"
Mu Huaixi was startled, and then she heard the woman who cleaned her head wink at her gossipingly, "Hey, I heard from my cousin that the last size small was bought by a tall soldier. Is he your boyfriend? It cost only thirty yuan, he really was willing to spend it!"
“So expensive?!”
"That's right, no tickets required, and it's made of jacquard satin. Look at the color and pattern, and then look at our girl's tiny waist. Isn't it worth it?"
"Worth it! Worth it! Hehehe..."
Mu Huaixi didn't even remember how she got back to the room. She wasn't completely clueless, but she couldn't handle the ferocity of the married women. It just so happened that those people had no ill intentions and kept praising her from beginning to end. But she couldn't handle either the praise or the teasing.
"Why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?" Ying Mingcheng leaned against the door. Seeing her appear in a daze, he immediately put away the cigarette in his hand and walked towards her with some worry.
Mu Huaixi didn't expect that he had come back. Thinking of the two sisters-in-law who kept calling her "your man", she took a step back uncomfortably and shook her head slightly.
"Are you really okay?" Ying Mingcheng frowned and didn't move closer. He noticed Mu Huaixi's resistance, but he was really confused.
"It's okay." Mu Huaixi looked down and saw the new leather boots on his feet. He sighed in his heart and made up an excuse. "I washed them for a long time and I feel a little confused."
"Then go to bed early." Ying Mingcheng looked her over carefully. Seeing that her cotton-padded jacket and shoes were still suitable, he made way for her and motioned her to come in. "I'll call you tomorrow. We have to take a whole day's bus ride."
"No, you're leaving tomorrow and you're resting so early. How can I thank my sister-in-law?" Wei Chengbao appeared at the stairs holding the railing and waved his hand casually, "Come on, I'll treat you!"
Wei Chengbao's hospitality was irresistible. He took the two of them to a small restaurant, placed an order with the owner in a familiar manner, and attentively set the table for them. He introduced the restaurant to them with a smile, "It's so cold, you need something hot!"
Ying Mingcheng looked around and shook his head helplessly, "You are still so greedy."
"Hey," Wei Chengbao glared, picked up a cup of tea heavily, and gently placed it in front of Mu Huaixi, "Sister-in-law, you are a VIP, we don't listen to him. If you don't show me the honor of eating this meal, I won't have the face to contact you in the future."
Mu Huaixi was flattered. She quickly glanced at Ying Mingcheng and saw that he had a smile on his face and didn't move. Then she sat down in her seat and watched Wei Chengbao's "performance".
"Today's success," Wei Chengbao exclaimed, his eyebrows dancing with joy, eager to announce it to the world. But then he glanced around the empty room and lowered his voice, "After completing these two tasks today, I'll most likely be free of the nickname 'Deputy'. I've saved myself three years of hard work, all thanks to my sister-in-law!"
