Chapter 81 Thermos



However, the injury on Brother Chu’s arm has not yet healed completely.

Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the time when I went out to collect herbs to pick some herbs that would help Brother Chu's arm recover, but time was too tight, so I saw them on the way back and picked a few, but not all.

The effect is greatly reduced and it is better than nothing.

The day passed quickly as I was sewing medicine packs with Xiaobao in the tent.

During this period, only Zhou Shen brought a few comrades from the cafeteria to deliver processed mugwort and sophora flavescens to Sheng Kangning and others.

It was completely dark.

Wang Juan asked everyone to pack up the needles, thread and gauze and prepare to take a rest. Everything would be done in another half a day.

The medicine package prepared during the day has been handed over to Zhou Shen.

Sheng Kangning was lying on his side on his bed at this time, supporting his head with one hand, patting Xiaobao lightly with the other hand, and humming a song.

Xu Hongmei moved closer and asked in a low voice:

"Asleep?"

Sheng Kangning nodded, and asked sleepily, "How much is left?"

"We will be done with all the medicine packs tomorrow! When I went to the canteen to get food at noon, I saw that all the comrades in the canteen were wearing medicine packs. When we were getting food, Old Feng gave us extra food and said that the medicine packs were very effective. Once we put them on, the mosquitoes disappeared. Old Feng said that the people in the Youth Protection Team and the more than 100 people in the Vanguard Team were all wearing medicine packs."

Sheng Kangning raised his lips at first. After all, being able to help others was a very happy thing. But then he thought, something is wrong. This number is not right. He looked at Xu Hongmei in confusion and asked:

"Sister Hongmei, what about the other comrades? Haven't we already sewn more than 200 medicine bags? The number of people in the vanguard team and the Youth Protection Team is less than 200!"

Xu Hongmei smiled:

"Kang Ning, have you forgotten the soldier who went out with us to collect herbs that day?"

Sheng Kangning suddenly realized:

"Oh! By the way, those soldiers were specially seconded by Brother Chu to help with the harvest, so they should be given to them."

After saying that, Sheng Kangning frowned:

"But if we give it to them, there won't be enough for our comrades on the farm!"

Xu Hongmei: "It's okay. The company commander has sent people out to collect herbs this morning. Zhou Shen will bring the gauze to us tomorrow!"

Sheng Kangning sat up from the bed and said with a smile, "That's good! Sister Hongmei, just clean up and go to bed!"

"What about you? Not sleeping?"

While putting on his raincoat, Sheng Kangning asked in a low voice, "Is there any hot water in the kettle?"

"A little bit, what's wrong?"

"I want to wipe myself off, change clothes and go to sleep!"

It has been several days since she came here, and Sheng Kangning has not had the chance to take a shower. She is also embarrassed to take off her clothes and wipe her body in front of the other female educated youth, so she can only do these things after everyone has gone to bed.

Xu Hongmei smiled and said:

"You said you are also a woman, and you are afraid that we will see it!"

Sheng Kangning smiled embarrassedly and whispered, "I'll go to the bathroom first and wash it when I come back!"

Xu Hongmei then picked up an empty kettle and said:

"Then I'll go to the cafeteria and get you another pot. If you want to wash, wash it thoroughly. The remaining hot water is not enough!"

Sheng Kangning took the lead and grabbed the thermos and said, "Sister Hongmei, I have to go out anyway. I know where the cafeteria is. I can go there by myself!"

"Really?"

Sheng Kangning nodded: "Okay!"

"Is your foot okay?"

"It's almost done! Don't worry, I'm leaving now!"

Hongyang Farm now has three teams, each with nearly two hundred people, divided into three dormitory areas. Sheng Kangning and her friends' tents belong to the third team, which is closest to the canteen.

Sheng Kangning first took the thermos to the cafeteria to get hot water.

When I entered the cafeteria, I saw Chu Nanzhou, Old Feng and Director Zhou sitting together and talking from a distance.

Chu Nanzhou saw Sheng Kangning when she came in.

When seeing Sheng Kangning, Chu Nanzhou was still thinking, I haven't seen this girl for two days, I miss her so much.

Judging from the way she walks, her sprained ankle should be almost healed.

When Chu Nanzhou wanted to see what the little girl's expression was like, he was kicked by someone.

Chu Nanzhou withdrew his gaze.

Old Feng was seen laughing, and Old Zhou was also grinning at him.

Chu Nanzhou coughed lightly: "Why are you kicking me when I'm fine!"

This was said to Lao Zhou.

Old Zhou pouted at Sheng Kangning who was getting hot water: "Now I know, you agreed to come here because of this girl!"

Chu Nanzhou smiled, picked up his own cup of water and drank it. He didn't respond, but he didn't refute it either. This was his consent.

Lao Zhou kicked Chu Nanzhou's foot again:

"You specifically asked Old Wu to borrow someone to help harvest the wheat because you couldn't bear to let the little girl work in the fields? Hmm? And there's a medicine bag!"

Chu Nanzhou looked at Lao Zhou and smiled slowly:

"Without the medicine packs, how can you sit here so leisurely without worrying about being fed to mosquitoes?"

"You little brat! Confess and I'll give you some leniency! Tell me the truth, is it and isn't it?"

Chu Nanzhou did not hide anything and nodded to the two of them:

"I'm engaged to Kang Ning!"

Old Zhou and Old Feng looked at each other with an expression of understanding.

Chu Nanzhou's next words made the two of them frown again.

"However, Kang Ning doesn't know about the engagement yet!"

Old Zhou didn't understand:

"Having an engagement, this is not a good thing! Why are you hiding it from the girl? With Kang Ning's appearance, I tell you, in a few days, there will be many people who want to date her. Don't even mention a few days. I remember that on the day the girl first came, Yang Hui and Liu Jinjiang from the Youth Protection Team came up to her and talked to her. I think they probably have some interest in her, so you better hurry up!"
