After performing tendon reflexes several times in a row, Meng Qidi stood up with some surprise.
"Not bad, do you want to try with a little more force?"
Ling Xiao's leg just had a nerve injury that prevented him from standing, but his entire leg wasn't numb.
Ling Xiao glanced at her and tried to lift his foot with force. After a few seconds, his foot moved two centimeters away, but it didn't last long.
He was slightly stunned, and a hint of joy flashed across his face, "Can I move?"
Meng Qidi nodded quickly and helped him lower his trouser legs. "Yeah, you're getting better. You can't stop taking this medicine! I think you'll be back to normal soon."
In the next two days, she had to put two more drops of lotion in the well when no one was around, otherwise Ling Xiao would recover too slowly.
"Can I...return to normal?"
Ling Xiao was a little hesitant. After being lame for such a long time, his legs suddenly became movable. He might even be able to walk in the future. It was inevitable that he was excited, and a little bit unbelieving.
"It should be ok, right? I can move now. Even if I can't recover to normal, it shouldn't affect my walking."
Meng Qidi didn't dare to say too much, and was afraid that Ling Xiao would lack confidence, so she could only speak carefully.
"Well, it's good to be able to walk."
Ling Xiao nodded slightly. It would be difficult to recover and return to the army. It would be a miracle if he could stand up.
"you……"
"without……"
The two spoke almost in unison.
Ling Xiao then said, "You tell me first, I'll be happy if my legs can recover a little."
Let her change her job, as long as she can walk normally and not let everything at home fall on her shoulders, the most important thing is...
Ling Xiao lowered his head slightly, with the corners of his mouth rising. The most important thing was that he felt more confident.
Seeing him lower his head, Meng Qidi thought he was in a bad mood and whispered, "How about... we go to Jing City and try? You're starting to feel the sensation in your legs, maybe Jing City can treat it?"
If he is really in a hurry, she might as well give him a strong dose of lotion to drink!
However, this needs a chance. Can it suddenly get better for no reason? It seems a bit...
It's okay to go to Beijing for treatment. If he comes back better, that's reasonable...
The most important thing is that, apart from some rapid changes at home, she has not revealed anything. Even if Ling Xiao finds something wrong, he can't do anything to her...
Ling Xiao looked up and met Meng Qidi's hopeful gaze. Ling Xiao nodded subconsciously. Maybe she wanted him to become better.
Seeing him nod, Meng Qidi had to prepare and make arrangements, "We are leaving, there is no one at home, mom and the others..."
"Ask Jin Ming and Jin Yue to come over often."
"Then... my aunt and the others won't come over to make trouble or bully mom, right?" Meng Qidi asked hesitantly.
"We will be back soon, so they shouldn't dare to do anything wrong. But, are the fish ponds at home okay after we leave?" Ling Xiao asked.
"No one needs to take care of that. The fish and lotus roots haven't grown up yet, so there's nothing to steal. We locked the fence door when we left, for fear that Little Orange would run in."
Meng Qidi suddenly paused, "We only have 2,000 yuan in our savings account. Will it be enough for medical expenses? Will the fare to Beijing be very expensive?"
Ling Xiao looked at her, "Are you worried now? How about not going?"
"Go ahead. I just want to know if the money will be enough."
Ling Xiao raised his hand to pick off the leaves on her head, "Enough, my injury has been reported, I can go directly to the military hospital in Jing City to report, it's not cost-effective, and it's covered."
Meng Qidi's eyes lit up, "Then I must go! What if it can be cured!"
Ling Xiao nodded gently, "Okay, let's go! Let's go after we have arranged everything at home in the next few days."
Since I'm going out, I have to arrange everything at home and outside, and I also have to say hello to the team.
The two of them confirmed the time, and Meng Qidi was responsible for talking to her family and arranging the specific details.
Ling Xiao was responsible for going to the team to greet the captain, and by the way, he would make a phone call to Mengjia Lane to tell Meng Daqiang.
When her son wanted to go get his leg treated, Wang Jinhua agreed wholeheartedly, "Don't worry, I'm at home! But can we stop him from getting into the pond and canal over there? I'm afraid Xiao Chengzi will run over there."
"Well, I'll just buy a lock and tighten it."
Meng Qidi glanced at Wang Jinhua's eyes and said, "Mom, how about we take you to Jing City to have your eyes checked?"
Wang Jinhua waved her hands quickly, "I've been blind for decades, I can't see well, don't waste your energy, you two can go."
It’s good that this girl has this intention.
The old lady refused, and Meng Qidi couldn't force it, but...
Before leaving, add a drop of lotion into the well. I don’t expect it to cure the old lady’s eyes, but at least it will prevent her from getting sick.
After a round of visits to the stove, she found that there was rice, oil and salt, but not much firewood. Meng Qidi was thinking about going to the mountains to get some firewood in the afternoon.
While there was no one at the door, she gently moved the manhole cover, quickly dropped a drop of lotion in, and then quickly moved it back to its original position.
After the manhole cover was closed for a moment, the water quality in the well changed quietly, and a wisp of hot air floated on the water surface...
After finding a lock in the house and hanging it on the fence gate at the door, Meng Qidi handed the key to the old lady for safekeeping.
Worried about Xiao Chengzi, she held the little girl’s hand and talked to her for half an hour...
The Ling siblings came here after having lunch.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we are here." Ling Jinming said quickly.
Brother Xiao told them about this this morning.
Ling Jinyue looked at Meng Qidi, "Sister-in-law, what else can I do to help?"
The more she called sister-in-law, the more comfortable she became with it.
"Let's talk about it when I come back. You can take care of your family affairs. If you have nothing to do, review more and see if you can get into the first grade of high school in the second half of the year."
"Ah? Still going to school?"
Ling Jinyue frowned. If she had known, she would not have asked...
"I don't want uneducated people to follow me. The same goes for Jin Ming. If you have time, read more books and review your high school knowledge."
I learned from Ling Xiao that Ling Jinming has finished his senior year of high school.
Now both siblings were frowning, and anything was better than reading.
And you have to read secretly, otherwise people will say you despise poor peasants...
Ling Xiao took the plate of watermelon from Xiao Chengzi and rolled his wheelchair over.
"What your sister-in-law meant is what I mean. People in our village are not hardworking. If you want to make money, you have to rely on your brain. Only by studying can you think quickly."
Ling Jinming quickly took it and placed it on the stool.
"Hey, where are these melons from? Which melons are ripe?" Meng Qidi asked suspiciously.
When she was building the pond, she scattered watermelon seeds all around the house, including by the stream, but later she didn't have time to check and didn't pay any attention.
I didn't expect it to be so ripe...
"I held the little orange in the west, and I thought it was not ripe yet."
Ling Xiao picked up a piece and put it to her mouth, "Try it."
Meng Qidi didn't think much about it and took a bite. "Tian, you brought it all out? Did you leave any for mom?"
"Grandma said she'll come out to eat soon." As Little Orange spoke, he already had a piece in his hand.
Ling Xiao raised his hand and continued to put it to Meng Qidi's mouth, "It's okay, there may be more, if not enough, pick more."
"You don't want to eat..." Meng Qidi paused, her face slightly red. How come Ling Xiao was the one feeding her?
Seeing that no one noticed their actions, she quickly took the watermelon.
A hint of smile flashed across Ling Xiao's eyes.
