Zhang Lanzhi had just hung up the phone when she heard her son yelling in the house.
"Mom, who are you talking to? Didn't I tell you? Don't tell anyone about my affairs."
"This silly boy." Zhang Lanzhi muttered, ignored him, turned around and went to the kitchen to make chicken soup for him.
Jiang Xun got the information he needed and rode his bike back.
When he got home, Jiang Sui was waiting for him in the house.
"Brother, how is it? Is there any news about Ji Lin?" Seeing him come back, Jiang Sui couldn't wait to ask about the situation.
"Something happened to Ji Lin."
Jiang Sui's face changed when she heard this. She stood up and said, "What happened to Ji Lin? Big brother, please tell me."
"Don't you care about him a lot?" Jiang Xun had a smile on his face.
...
...
"Brother, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly, what happened to Ji Lin?" Jiang Sui was very anxious.
"Just tell me now. Look how anxious you make your sister." Ye Li teased Jiang Sui with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, why are you joking too? Ji Lin is in trouble, I'm really not in the mood to joke."
"Silly sister, you are worrying too much. Don't you see that your elder brother still has the mind to joke with you? This shows that although Ji Lin is in trouble, it is not a big deal." Ye Li said.
"Your sister-in-law is right. Ji Lin was stabbed for his bravery."
"What? Ji Lin had surgery! It's so serious!" Jiang Sui was so scared that his voice changed. "Brother, I want to go see him! Which hospital is he in?"
"He's being taken care of at home now. He didn't tell you because he was afraid you would worry."
"If he doesn't say anything, I won't know anything and will be more worried. Brother, can we go to the military compound to see him?" Jiang Sui asked.
"Yes. I told Aunt Zhang that we will go visit Ji Lin tonight."
"Okay, brother, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things. You wait for me to advise you on what to buy?"
"Let's go together."
"There are food coupons in the drawer. Take whatever you need." Ye Li said, "If there is a chicken seller, it would be best if they sell two chickens. We can give you old hen soup and Qi tonic."
The brother and sister went to the supply and marketing agency and bought a lot of things. After dinner, they carried the things to the military compound, spoke to the sentry and registered before they were allowed in.
When the brother and sister arrived, Ji Lin was at home fighting a battle of wits and courage with his mother Zhang Lanzhi.
"Ji Lin, how old are you? Can you choke to death on a pill?"
"Mom! My wound isn't infected at all, so I don't need to take the medicine! Medicine is poisonous, so take less."
"The doctor told you to take it for a week! It's only been a few days! Can you please listen to me?"
"Can you believe what the doctor said?"
"I don't believe the doctor's words, I believe you! I tell you, Ji Lin, it's useless for you to bargain with me. Someone will come to treat you soon."
As soon as Zhang Lanzhi finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Ji Lin glanced at the time. "Who would come so late?"
"Deal with your people." Zhang Lanzhi looked at him with a smile, then stood up and went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Zhang Lanzhi saw the brother and sister standing at the door carrying large and small bags.
"Aunt Zhang, I heard that Brother Ji Lin was injured, so my brother and I came to see him." Jiang Sui said as he handed over the things.
"Hey, come on in. You said you were coming, so come on. What's the matter?" Zhang Lanzhi invited the two to sit in the living room. "It's so late, why are you still here to see him? He's fine. Although he's not jumping around, he's in good spirits."
"Auntie, take us to see him." Jiang Xun said.
"Okay, okay, come and see him. This stubborn guy won't listen to me at all. I'm so worried about him. He haggles with me every day about the price of medicine! You said he's not afraid of being stabbed or fighting, but he's afraid of taking a pill."
"Mom! Who are you talking to?" Ji Lin yelled in the room.
"Stop shouting, someone is coming."
"who?"
"Can't you just look at it yourself?"
Zhang Lanzhi led two people upstairs to visit Ji Lin. The door was pushed open and Jiang Sui appeared in front of him.
"Brother Ji Lin, are you feeling better?"
Ji Lin never expected Jiang Sui to come.
He was so surprised and excited that he almost jumped up from his chest.
"Sui Sui, why...why are you here?"
"I'm worried about you, Brother Ji Lin. You were injured so seriously, why didn't you tell me?" Jiang Sui said with tears in her eyes.
"Don't cry, Sui Sui, don't cry, I'm fine. Really, it's no big deal, it will be fine in two days." Ji Lin felt really happy and distressed when he saw Jiang Sui crying for him.
"Heh." Zhang Lanzhi laughed twice. "Ji Lin, you are bragging, right? It will only be healed in two days. If he doesn't take medicine, he won't be healed for two months, right? Sui Sui, you take care of him."
Jiang Sui asked, "Brother Ji Lin, why don't you take the medicine? Can't you swallow the pills? Or I can grind them into powder for you?"
"No, no, no, I can take it." Ji Lin swallowed the pills obediently immediately without Jiang Sui persuading him.
"You'll have to wait for Sui Sui to deal with you." Zhang Lanzhi snorted and laughed, "You guys chat, I'm going to leave now."
"Okay." Ji Lin nodded repeatedly.
"Should I avoid it too?" Jiang Xun asked him with a smile.
Ji Lin chuckled and said, "Brother Jiang, please go sit in the living room. It's rare for Sui Sui to come over, and we have something heartwarming to say."
Jiang Xun curled his lips: "Okay. I'll create an opportunity for you."
"Thank you, Brother Jiang."
Jiang Xun also came down from the building. Zhang Lanzhi saw him and asked with a smile, "Did they kick you out?"
"Yeah. Aunt Zhang, I have to sit here and wait for the two of you to have a private conversation."
Zhang Lanzhi laughed: "Let them talk. You sit here with me. Your uncle Ji will be back soon, you two can chat too."
"good."
The two chatted for a while. Although Jiang Xun was not good at speaking, he answered every question Zhang Lanzhi asked.
The two were chatting happily when Ji Yuanjun came back from outside.
"Commander Ji." Jiang Xun stood up and saluted.
"This is... Jiang Xun!"
"yes."
Ji Yuanjun looked Jiang Xun up and down and said, "Well, not bad! He has been retired for several years, right? His military salute is very standard."
"Thank you for the compliment, Commander! It has been almost six years since I retired from the army. I have never dared to relax and have been exercising every day. I have never dared to forget what I handed over to the army."
Ji Yuanjun's eyes were filled with admiration: "Very good! Ji Lin always praises you! You have made many contributions in the army! It was a pity that you were discharged at that time. But I heard that you did a good job in the machinery factory!"
"It's OK. Just do what you love."
Ji Yuanjun nodded repeatedly. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Jiang Xun, if I let you return to the army, would you be willing?"
Jiang Xun was stunned: "Commander, I am willing. But once I retire, I can never go back. There is no precedent in the army."
