Chapter 28: Heartfelt (2/2)



Yun Qiao nodded. "It's a bit boring. Brother He, what book did you bring?"

"Some basic medical books." He Tingjun opened his backpack and pulled out three or four, handing them to Yun Qiao. "You told me earlier that you wanted to study medicine. Now that you're in the Great Northern Wilderness, you don't know when you'll have another chance, so I asked a friend to find a few medical books. They're the basics for getting started, and you can learn them on your own. I'm giving them to you. I hope these books can help you live a life without regrets."

"Thank you, Brother He, you're so thoughtful." Yun Qiao was deeply moved. "These books are very helpful to me. I really don't know how to thank you enough."

"It's just a small favor, it doesn't cost much, and I can help you get it done." He Tingjun was not surprised.

"Thank you for your kind help. It's been a huge help to me."

Yun Qiao held the book in his arms.

With these books, she could reasonably explain the source of her medical skills and no longer have to worry about being suspected as a spy.

This is what it means to provide timely assistance!

Woohoo, Brother He is such a big shot!!

Yun Qiao was so touched!

Yun Qiao opened a book and started reading. She just wanted to read it casually to deepen her impression. After all, the train was quite noisy with people coming and going, and she didn't feel she could calm down.

However, with the sound of the train clanging, Yun Qiao's mind gradually immersed in the book, without any distractions.

Seeing that she was reading seriously, He Tingjun didn't disturb her and also picked up a book to read.

With the mentality that too many lice won’t itch, too many debts won’t worry, and the more knowledge you master, the more it will come in handy sooner or later, the more you learn, the better.

Seeing this, the young couple opposite unconsciously lowered their voices for fear of disturbing their studies.

He Tingjun didn't put down his book until the lunch cart passed by. He called Yun Qiao's name and said, "Let's eat first and give our eyes a rest."

"Hey." Yun Qiao put down the book and heard him ask the conductor pushing the dining car, "What kind of food are available?"

The conductor lifted the lid of the dining car, revealing neatly arranged bowls of food underneath, steaming hot. "We have braised pork, moo shu pork, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and stir-fried rapeseed. We have rice, thin-grain steamed buns, and choy sum steamed buns. What would you like?"

"What do you want to eat?" He Tingjun turned and asked Yun Qiao.

Yun Qiao took out a lunch box and said, "Give me some Mushu pork and two servings of rice."

He Tingjun nodded and asked the conductor, "Can I have half a portion?"

"Yes. One spoonful is half a portion, and two spoonfuls are a full portion." The conductor picked up the spoon for scooping food and gestured to him to look.

The spoon was neither too big nor too small, not too much nor too little.

"Then give her half a portion of braised pork and half a portion of Mushu pork." He Tingjun finished speaking, then turned to Yun Qiao and said, "A combination of meat and vegetables is nutritious. You need to eat more meat. Look at your thin arms and legs, they're like sticks. You look listless at first glance."

“…” Yun Qiao pursed his lips.

What I mean is, can you describe it more vividly?

He Tingjun was essentially concerned about her, so Yun Qiao didn't say anything and could only respond in a muffled voice: "Of course."

The conductor began to serve her food, putting two scoops of rice at the bottom of the lunch box, first with a spoonful of braised pork, and then covering it with a full spoonful of mu shu pork, filling the entire lunch box to the brim.

After finishing Yun Qiao's order, He Tingjun ordered his own: "Give me half a portion of braised pork and half a portion of Mushu pork, and two steamed buns with glutinous rice flour."

He joined the army at the age of seventeen and stayed in Northeast China for ten years. He preferred to eat steamed buns with vegetables.
