Chapter 19
Li Changming stared at the empty plate, and simply poured the soup at the bottom of the plate into a bowl, then ate it with white rice.
He licked his lips with a look of satisfaction and asked tentatively: "Can I come tomorrow?"
Huo Changfeng said bluntly with a dark face: "The research institute is too far from the hospital. If you have that much time, you might as well spend more time on research instead of coming here."
Li Changming turned a deaf ear to her and looked at Mu Qingxuan eagerly, begging: "Sister-in-law, I can help you take care of the director."
Mu Qingxuan avoided Huo Changfeng's sight and said with a smile: "Then come over, but you just need to coordinate the work time."
Li Changming's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed: "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
After Li Changming left, Mu Qingxuan and Huo Changfeng were the only ones left in the huge ward. Mu Qingxuan slowly sat down beside the bed and gently scratched the man's palm.
"Angry?"
Huo Changfeng glanced at her calmly and shook his head.
Mu Qingxuan explained: "He is your colleague, and he has called me sister-in-law several times. For your sake, I have to be more considerate of him."
It's just the effort of making one more bowl of rice, it's not a big deal.
Mu Qingxuan wanted to maintain good workplace relationships for Huo Changfeng, so she nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Besides, she could see that Huo Changfeng was not really angry with Li Changming.
Huo Changfeng pursed his lips and his expression looked much better.
Seeing this, Mu Qingxuan's brows softened, and her eyes sparkled and sparkled.
"You are now recuperating. Don't get angry easily, otherwise it will be detrimental to your recovery."
Mu Qingxuan placed her delicate jade fingers on Huo Changfeng's wrist and carefully felt his pulse: "According to this trend, you will be able to recover in half a month."
Huo Changfeng frowned: "Another half a month?"
The institute's project was at a critical juncture, but he, as the project director, had to be trapped in the hospital for half a month.
Mu Qingxuan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you know that you almost died? It only took me half a month to recover from such a serious and fatal injury. This is the result of all the knowledge I have learned throughout my life."
Mu Qingxuan was just glad that she was the one who got to live again.
She saved Huo Changfeng by relying on decades of experience accumulated in her previous life.
If she really only has the medical skills of a 20-year-old, she would probably be helpless.
Huo Changfeng took a deep breath, his eyes deep: "Thank you for your hard work."
Mu Qingxuan smiled and said, "You know how hard I work, so don't think about working secretly. Just lie down and take care of your body. Getting well soon is the greatest reward for me."
Huo Changfeng nodded and said, "Yes."
Afterwards, Mu Qingxuan gave Huo Changfeng acupuncture treatment and took care of him until evening before dragging her tired body back to the Huo family.
Before she even walked into the Huo family's door, Mu Qingxuan heard a hearty laughter coming from inside the house.
She frowned slightly, and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
Sure enough, the next second, Mu Qingxuan keenly caught the familiar voice of Mu Qianqian in the laughter.
"Grandma, you are amazing. You have persevered through such a difficult time. You are truly as capable as any man!"
Inside the house, Mu Qianqian sat on the sofa with Old Mrs. Huo, flipping through old photo albums at home.
In the black and white photo, Mrs. Huo was wearing a military uniform, standing heroically in the center of the photo.
The old lady was in her twenties at that time. She looked fearlessly into the camera with a big smile on her young and bright face, but she stood straight and upright.
Anyone who saw it would know that he was an outstanding soldier!
"Hey, sister, why did you come back so suddenly without telling me?"
Mu Qianqian caught a glimpse of Mu Qingxuan from the corner of her eye and quickly greeted her.
"I was chatting with my grandma, and it turns out she was also a great soldier. I really admire her."
The corners of her mouth held a curve that was either arrogant or boastful, as if she was showing off her close relationship with Old Madam Huo.
Mu Qingxuan had long guessed the old lady's identity from her habitually tense muscles and her usual upright sitting posture, so she was not surprised at this time and just smiled softly: "Grandma, you are amazing!"
Compared with Mu Qianqian's lengthy praise, Mu Qingxuan's sincere emotion was obviously too thin for Mrs. Huo.
The old lady frowned almost immediately, her face tense, and she looked at Mu Qingxuan carefully, and asked calmly, "How is Changfeng?"
"I'm getting better and better."
Mrs. Huo said, "I fainted a couple of days ago, and the doctor told me to rest at home and not to run around, so I couldn't go to the hospital to take care of Changfeng in person."
"Since you keep coming to the hospital every day, you should take responsibility for taking care of Changfeng, but don't learn any crooked ways."
Mu Qingxuan raised her eyebrows, keenly aware of the malice and dissatisfaction hidden in Mrs. Huo's tone today.
She glanced at Mu Qianqian.
Huo Changfeng had previously made it clear that he didn’t want Mu Qianqian to come again, but recently everyone in the Huo family was busy taking care of Huo Changfeng and no one had time to take care of her, so Mu Qianqian came again uninvited.
No one knew what she had said to coax old lady Huo during the day. Mu Qingxuan had worked hard to treat the old lady for several days, but the favorability she had gained was wasted.
"I know, grandma, don't worry."
"By the way," Mrs. Huo stopped Mu Qingxuan who was about to leave, "Are you going to make medicinal food for Changfeng tomorrow as well?"
Mu Qingxuan nodded.
"Then make more, and give Qianqian and me some to try. It won't do any harm to nourish our bodies." Old Mrs. Huo squinted her eyes and spoke bluntly.
Mu Qingxuan was stunned and glanced at Mu Qianqian who had been silent.
It goes without saying that this was definitely instigated by her.
Mu Qingxuan narrowed her eyes and said, "The medicinal food is prepared according to Changfeng's constitution. Grandma, if you want to eat it, I will prepare something else for you."
Old Mrs. Huo was shocked. She didn't expect that the medicinal food had to be distributed among different people.
Looking at Mu Qingxuan's docile appearance, the anger that had been unreasonably aroused in her heart faded a lot.
Mrs. Huo waved her hand and said, "Okay, you've been busy in the hospital all day and you're tired. Go back and have a rest."
"Thank you, grandma."
Mu Qingxuan returned to the room, washed up, and threw herself directly onto the bed.
There will definitely be another good show tomorrow.
Mu Qingxuan's lips curled up slightly, and she even began to look forward to it vaguely.
the next day.
Mu Qingxuan got up early and as soon as she went out, she saw Mu Qianqian already sitting in the Huo's house.
He looked so calm, as if he was also the master of this house.
"Sister, you finally woke up. I came early today, so I made breakfast for you. Will you blame me, sister?"
Mu Qingxuan asked back: "Qianqian, what you said is really weird, why should I blame you?"
Mu Qianqian's body trembled, as if she remembered something very scary.
After a long while, she said with a trembling voice: "Sister, didn't you hate it most when others disobeyed and disrupted your plans? You have to prepare medicinal food today, and I was worried that if I took the initiative to prepare breakfast for you, I would make you unhappy..."
When Mrs. Huo heard this, she became angry.
