"Why are you back?"
Ling Xiao leaned on the hospital bed and read a book, glancing at his comrade who came in dejectedly.
"My sister-in-law didn't let me follow her. She wanted to go shopping by herself. She also said that she had a good memory and would remember the way back..."
Shen Xing sighed. He knew that with two grown men following him, his sister-in-law would definitely feel disgusted...
Knowing Meng Qidi's character, Ling Xiao did not force the two to follow, but asked instead.
"Tell me, have all their injuries recovered from the missions you carried out these days?"
Speaking of this, Haozi's eyes turned red, "Boss, you were the most seriously injured in that mission. The others were already alive and kicking, and the compensation from above is very optimistic."
They had already thought it through; if the eldest brother's leg could not be healed, they would support him for the rest of his life.
While Ling Xiao was talking to his comrades, Meng Qidi had already walked out of the hospital.
After being cleansed by Yuquan water and lotion, my brain works particularly well. Almost every time I go to a place, I can engrave the scene in my mind.
She estimated that if she traveled to every corner of Beijing, she might be able to draw a detailed map.
After visiting a nearby department store, Meng Qidi bought some necessities and wrote down all the interesting things she saw.
She was thinking about buying the things when she returned. Ling Jinyue liked doing business, so she had to help her, right?
Of course, this would not work, so after two years when the market opened up, she took Jin Yuenan to do wholesale.
The first one to try something new will always make a fortune.
After buying some necessities, Meng Qidi held the items in her hands with no intention of turning back. She had to take the opportunity to look for the black market.
After walking around the west of the city, he didn't find anything, but he had more things in his hands. He bought a few clothes for Ling Xiao and himself.
Sure enough, after seeing the outside world, your vision will be broadened.
It’s not that she thinks her clothes are too ugly or make her look like a country bumpkin, but she has to make herself live comfortably since she has to live this life over again.
When buying clothes, I don’t pursue the appearance, but I think the fabric is more comfortable.
Even though she didn't find the black market, Meng Qidi was not discouraged. If her friends had found the black market, it would have been shut down long ago.
I bought some buns at the bun shop and planned to take them back for Ling Xiao as an afternoon snack.
When Meng Qidi passed by a chess and card room in an alley carrying a large bag of things, she stopped. There were quite a few novels in her space computer.
She skimmed through some of them and it seemed that in one of the stallion novels, the protagonist discovered that the entrance to the black market was a gambling house.
Is the entrance really here?
Just as I was confused, the door of the chess and card room was pushed open, and several shirtless men came out cursing and spitting.
Meng Qidi cursed inwardly, took a few steps back, and left without looking back.
If this black market is all like this, it’s better not to go in.
After returning to the hospital, Meng Qidi didn't tell Ling Xiao what happened. She handed a few buns to Ling Xiao and turned around to get busy.
Put out the daily necessities, buckets, enamel basins, kettles, and towels and toothbrushes in order...
"If I hadn't been sure that my sister-in-law wasn't in the military, I would have suspected that she was a soldier. These are so neatly arranged."
Meng Qidi smiled and didn't respond. She didn't have the conditions at the Meng family, but when she went to the Ling family, she basically arranged everything in their room.
Not to mention the housework, even the work outside, such as planting melons in neat rows, and the bamboo stakes, although of different heights, were arranged in a regular pattern by her.
It seems that later generations said this was... obsessive-compulsive disorder?
Meng Qidi came back, and Shen Xing and the other person sat and talked for a while, then returned to the team.
Although the entire ward belonged to the two of them, it was simple and had nothing except a bed and a bedside table.
"Reading?" Meng Qidi sat down on the bed opposite and asked casually.
When she just took a look around, she found that many bookstores were open, and there were even many people going in to buy books openly.
She thought about waiting until Ling Xiao recovered from his injuries before going to check on him.
Being in the hospital is not as free as being at home, where you can still go out for a walk, especially since Ling Xiao is a patient now.
The two read books and chatted, and then it was time for dinner. The hospital has a lights-out time, which is around nine o'clock.
After I had washed and tidied myself up, I was leaning back on the bed to read a book when the ward suddenly became pitch dark.
"Don't watch it. The power is out. You've been sitting on the train for several days. Go to bed early."
Ling Xiao's voice rang out in the darkness.
When she was really getting ready to go to bed, Meng Qidi was completely not sleepy at all. She turned sideways to face Ling Xiao who was lying on the bed opposite her.
"Are your troops also turning off the lights?"
"Um."
Meng Qidi couldn't help but ask curiously, "What about the family building? Will the lights be turned off?"
It’s good to have electric lights, big cities are developing really rapidly.
"No, every household in the staff building has an electricity meter, and you pay for what you use."
Ling Xiao explained to Meng Qidi very patiently, "If you are not used to turning off the lights, you can sleep in the staff dormitory at night."
Meng Qidi pouted, "Do you want to send me away? Or are you afraid that I will meet some of your friends and ruin your business? The hospital is such a good environment, what's there to be unaccustomed to? We still have kerosene lamps in our hometown."
Ling Xiao twitched his lips and said, "What do I have to be afraid of? Even if my comrades come to visit me, it's you who are afraid. An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law."
Ling Xiao continued in the dark, "Besides, people probably don't even care about your little arms and legs!"
Meng Qidi rolled her eyes and said, "It's useless to look down on others. You can't eat them."
While chatting with someone, the topic went off the topic. Ling Xiao had no choice but to go along with what she said.
It wasn't until the response from the other side became slower and slower, until he could only hear a muffled "hmm", and then stopped talking altogether, that Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally I feel sleepy, I don't know why she is so energetic...
He took out the flashlight from the bedside table, turned it on and shone it on the sleeping girl opposite him. After making sure that she would not roll over and fall, he turned off the flashlight.
Having lived two lives, this was the first time in the capital, Meng Qidi slept particularly soundly...
The next day, as soon as it was light, Meng Qidi got up, washed, and went to the canteen to get some water and buy breakfast. The whole morning passed in a bustling manner.
In the morning, Ling Xiao was sent to the next building for treatment. Meng Qidi learned that it would take three and a half hours, so she had to go back to the ward and wait.
Doctor Li was quite quick and had given a treatment plan within just one night.
After walking around the ward as if nothing had happened, Meng Qidi's eyes fell on the socket on the bedside table. That was the socket reserved for the electric fan. The computer in the space was running low on power, so it seemed like she could give it a try...
After charging the computer for three hours, Meng Qidi put away the computer and went to the fourth floor of the clinic building to pick up Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao came out of the consulting room already sitting in a wheelchair, probably provided by the hospital.
After remembering the precautions given by the nurse, he pushed Ling Xiao back to the ward.
There was no need for treatment in the afternoon, so Meng Qidi pushed him around the hospital.
This continued for several days...
Shen Xing brought his comrades to visit him, but Ling Xiao was basically receiving treatment in the morning...
