"You really dare to come," Ying Mingcheng's face turned cold when he came out of Captain Wei's office. He and Huo Zhiwu had been at odds since childhood. Both of them were troublemakers in the compound and they had fought countless times.
"Didn't you beg me to come here?" Huo Zhiwu wasn't afraid of him. Seeing him turn around and about to leave, he raised an eyebrow and reached out to stop him. "My sister-in-law was here just now."
"Huh?" Ying Mingcheng turned his head immediately after hearing that, and his gaze swept across his face as if it were real, causing Huo Zhiwu to pause for a second in surprise, and then he stopped the fist he was swinging towards him.
"Don't worry, if you believe me, don't rush back." Huo Zhiwu simply recounted what Mu Huaixi had just said. "My sister-in-law said she shouldn't have been discovered, but I think this is a good opportunity."
Ying Mingcheng refused without a second thought, "No, you can't use her safety as bait."
"Of course she's not the bait. What I mean is..." Huo Zhiwu motioned him over and whispered his plan, then punched him back. "Don't go home yet. It's better to protect your sister-in-law in the dark."
"......" Ying Mingcheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, but you have to help me deliver the things."
Huo Zhiwu agreed immediately, but when he saw the small mountain of five large sacks, the corners of his mouth, which were always raised, instantly collapsed. His fair face turned slightly gray, and he gritted his teeth and asked Ying Mingcheng, who was changing clothes, "Are you going on a mission or going wholesale?"
Ying Mingcheng didn't even blink, patted his shoulder and instructed, "Send it quickly, don't make your sister-in-law wait anxiously."
After he finished speaking, he jumped out of the window and disappeared into the mountains and forests outside the window in a few seconds, and no one was seen anymore.
Huo Zhiwu shook his head, and his curiosity about Mu Huaixi grew even stronger. Ying Mingcheng had a great reputation in the Northeast compound, including his rudeness towards girls. He had thought that this man would live out his life alone, but he had never expected that such a day would come.
When Huo Zhiwu and a group of people brought five large sacks over, Mu Huaixi was listening to Luo Rui taking credit for it. "Well, did I take a good picture of you last time?"
Mu Huaixi only then realized that Luo Rui had contributed to the last newspaper report. She was a little surprised. "Didn't you say you were a correspondent? Aren't you an instructor?"
"Hahaha, it's all me, hahahaha!" She didn't know what Mu Huaixi said that tickled her funny bone, she burst into laughter, tears came out of her eyes, and she didn't say why for a long time.
Mu Huaixi could only helplessly wait for her by the side, "Luo Rui, thank you so much, but don't praise me so highly in the future. You wrote about me so well that I almost don't recognize myself."
When she thought about what was written about herself in the newspaper, she still felt embarrassed. To be honest, she was just blessed with rebirth and was not as noble as the newspaper said.
Luo Rui groaned and waved her hands, retorting confidently, "You're doing a good thing. Don't think you can't handle the praise."
"Besides, I'm not praising you for nothing. I just want to ask..." Before Luo Rui finished her words, Huo Zhiwu came over with five or six large sacks, saying that Ying Mingcheng had asked someone to bring them back.
"What's all this?" Luo Rui helped carry the sacks inside. "Oh, this is quite heavy. Is Ying Mingcheng going to make ends meet? He's so extravagant."
On the other side, Mu Huaixi was asking Huo Zhiwu, "Where's Ying Mingcheng? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
"Old Ying went to a meeting at the military district and asked someone to send the things back first, saying they were all what you wanted, sister-in-law." Huo Zhiwu had already coordinated with Ying Mingcheng and explained the situation calmly. After hearing what Luo Rui said, he also became curious about the big sacks, "Sister-in-law, what are these?"
Mu Huaixi took out a small knife from his waist and untied the rope of a sack, revealing a variety of medicinal herbs. At a glance, there were seven or eight kinds, and the quantity was quite large.
"......" Luo Rui leaned too close and inhaled too much medicinal vapor, her face twisted. She took two steps and rushed out, coughing repeatedly in disgust. "I thought it was delicious, cough cough, why are they all Chinese medicine?!"
"Prunella vulgaris, angelica sinensis leaves", Mu Huaixi glanced into the sack a few times and had an idea in her mind. It seemed that Ying Mingcheng was going south this time. She felt a little sweet in her heart. This mission took so long, but he still didn't forget to purchase materials for herself.
Mu Huaixi glanced at the sack and felt a little uneasy. He asked tentatively, "Huo Zhiwu, did our Ying Mingcheng really go to the military area? Is he injured?"
"No," Huo Zhiwu was slightly taken aback, and quickly waved his hand. "If Deputy Ying was injured, I would definitely inform you. Besides, don't you know his skills?"
Mu Huaixi was still a little confused, but Huo Zhiwu's expression was extremely calm, so she temporarily put her mind at ease and walked over in response to Luo Rui's call.
"The military district always has meetings. This is part of their mission," Luo Rui said, understanding her. She patted her shoulder and comforted her. "I was going to come find you after the newspaper came out, but I was also called away by the military district to attend a meeting."
"What do you want me to do? I can't write articles or take photos." Mu Huaixi actually liked Luo Rui's personality very much and made a joke with her.
"You don't need to know about these things," Luo Rui paused. "I heard that Old Song's back condition has improved. I heard that you used medicinal baths on many people in the camp. We have such a good sisterly relationship, why don't you think about our women's company? We have no fewer injuries than those stinky men!"
"About this matter," Mu Huaixi laughed, "Men and women have different physiques. What's given to them will have different effects on us sisters. I didn't have all the herbs here before, but Ying Mingcheng sent me so many medicines. I'll take your pulse one day and adjust the prescription. How about that?"
"Okay, okay," Luo Rui liked her straightforwardness and lowered her voice to come closer. "I also have an uncle who is also injured in his legs. If you have time, can you come with me to see him? Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly."
"Not right now," Mu Huaixi didn't completely refuse, but she didn't have time to go out at the moment. "I have to take care of the sisters' medicinal baths, and the health center still has to prepare the Sanfu plasters. Brother Song's medicine also needs to be prepared soon. I really don't have time."
"You...you are such a busy man," Luo Rui rolled her eyes, "Okay, you're busy, I'll just ask my uncle to come see you!"
"How can this be possible?" Mu Huaixi waved her hands hurriedly. "Brother Song's medicine is going to be prescribed, but whether it will be effective is still uncertain. If you keep doing this, I don't know what to do!"
"It's okay. The competition is about to start, so it's time for him to come over and take a look."
Luo Rui did not explicitly state the identity of this uncle, but her family situation was actually similar to Ying Mingcheng's. The person who could be called uncle and come to inspect the military camp must have a high status.
