Chapter 350: Counterattack at Night



"If you act recklessly again next time, I, your brother, won't take the knife for you."

Ling Jihao rarely felt guilty, and hugged Ling Jiren and said coquettishly: "Thank you, big brother!"

Ling Jiren snorted coldly: "Your little mouth is quite sweet!"

***

In Qingshan Village, Chi Xingyue took the roast chicken out of the earthen oven and asked Erzhu to bring it to Rongsiyuan to have dinner with everyone.

Today is a festival, and my family has prepared ten dishes and a soup, each served in a large bowl.

The old lady smiled and asked everyone to sit down. She deliberately ignored the loneliness on Geng Suhua and Liang Zhijun's faces and said some words of blessing.

The full moon hung high in the sky. Ling Weiyuan and Ling Weicun looked at each other, clinked their glasses, and everything was said without words.

Chi Xingyue reached out and touched Ge Jinglan's belly: "Aunt, have you been vomiting these past two days? Are you about to give birth?"

Ge Jinglan smiled and said, "It's the end of the year. It's only been more than six months. It's still early."

Chi Xingyue suddenly realized that this little cousin was conceived during the national mourning period!

Fortunately, it was General Zhou who decided to rebel, otherwise there would have been a lot of trouble after the baby was born.

As for why they were sure it was a boy, it was of course because Doctor Cheng took the baby's pulse.

The old man has studied medicine for decades, and he knows everything with just a flick of his finger.

Shu Xuhong picked up a chicken leg and put it in Ge Jinglan's bowl: "Eat more, so our son can grow strong!"

Ge Jinglan glared at him and said, "Doctor Cheng said that we can't take too much supplements, otherwise it will be dangerous during childbirth."

Chi Xingyue nodded vigorously, thinking that this was the case. Dr. Cheng's "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook" hadn't been read in vain!

Of course, he is an experienced doctor and he will understand all this without even reading it.

But that book, and Human Anatomy, opened up a new world for him.

The old man then realized that after a caesarean section, as long as the surgery was done in order and the procedure was followed and disinfection was done properly, the mother had a chance of survival.

It's simply amazing!

It’s a pity that there was no material for him to experiment with, so his medical skills stopped there.

Every time at this time, Chi Xingyue would sigh that this kind of bug in Nanshan Village Health Center should be given to the miracle doctor or famous doctor.

They have the golden finger, maybe they can save more lives. Unlike me, I am just a decoration.

Chi Xingyue sighed, feeling guilty for wasting such a gift.

However, the secret was too big, so they didn't dare to bring the old man in to study those medical devices.

All we can do is waste it like this.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a shrimp in the bowl.

It was fished out of the river. It’s not big, but very fresh.

Chi Xingyue thanked Ling Jiheng sweetly, then heard Shu Muyun whisper to Ling Weicheng, "Our son is so thoughtful. I wonder when he'll give me a little grandson to play with?"

Ling Weicheng coughed lightly: "Eat!"

The voice was not low enough that both Chi Xingyue and Ling Jiheng heard it.

Chi Xingyue's cheeks were flushed and her ears were burning.

Ling Jiheng was not affected at all. He peeled a shrimp and put it on Shu Muyun's plate, then took the responsibility: "Mom, I'm still young and I'm greedy for the world of two people. I don't plan to have children for the time being."

The words were so clear that Shu Muyun felt embarrassed to urge him any further.

"Mom, have you ever thought about having another child? Don't worry, our family can afford it. When your brother grows up, Xingyue and I can help take care of him."

This is a tit-for-tat response.

But Ling Jiheng really doesn't mind having more brothers.

But Shu Muyun refused to do it. She thought that she was already so old. If she got pregnant again, it would be like an old clam giving birth to a pearl. It would be so embarrassing.

But she didn't dare say it out loud. After all, her sister-in-law was two years older than her.

When you are 38 years old and pregnant, you have to pay attention to every aspect.

Doctor Cheng took the patient's pulse every three days, for fear that there might be any problems.

Ling Weicheng pretended to scold Ling Jiheng: "What nonsense are you talking about? Mind your own business. You don't need to worry about your mother and me."

Ling Jiheng touched his nose and said nothing. He extended his chopsticks and dropped a river shrimp onto the old lady's plate.

The old lady immediately understood and smiled to smooth things over: "It's normal for young people to like to play. Wait for another two years, even if you don't urge him, he will know what responsibility is.

It's a big holiday, let's not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and start eating. If you delay any longer, the food will get cold."

The younger ones smiled and nodded, then devoured the food.

After dinner, they sat together drinking tea and eating mooncakes, and inevitably talked about the two people who had gone out to join the army.

"I don't know what Ji Ren and Ji Hao are eating tonight. Do they have mooncakes?"

How could there be mooncakes in the military camp? It’s good enough to fill my stomach.

Previously, when the two were still in Youzhou, the Ling family could still take advantage of the convenience of delivering mushrooms to Zhou's army to bring some things to Ling Jiren and Ling Jihao.

But last time, when he was told that the two of them were transferred to attack Northern Liao and would not be able to return for several months, Ling Jiheng clenched his fists tightly and then concealed the news.

Afraid that my family will worry.

They just said that they needed to intensify training over there and refused all visits.

The old lady didn't think much about it, thinking that this was how the military camp should be.

Although Geng Suhua and Liang Zhijun were worried, they had no choice but to accept it.

After all, they had no other way to get news about each other, so they could only choose to believe it.

Geng Suhua said, "I left two pieces of five-nut filling for Ji Ren to eat when he comes back."

Liang Zhijun argued with her: "My Ji Hao likes lotus seed paste. I bought him five pounds of lotus seeds and will make it for him when he comes back."

Chi Xingyue held Ling Weiwei on her lap and asked her, "Weiwei, do you miss your daddy?"

Ling nodded slightly: "Yes, Auntie said Daddy has become a hero!"

Chi Xingyue touched her hair and smiled, "Yes, Weiwei's father is a great hero who defended his country."

After nine o'clock in the evening, everyone went home.

Chi Xingyue pulled Ling Jiheng into the space, his face immediately falling: "I think it's a good thing you didn't join the army."

Ling Jiheng was confused and asked, "What do you mean?"

Chi Xingyue spread his hands and said, "Because we are all compatriots! Yellow skin, black eyes, in the future, that place will also be part of China."

How could Ling Jiheng not know this? It was because he knew it too well that he did not join the army even though he hesitated at the time.

Holding Chi Xingyue's hand, he went to the warehouse to pick out some mooncakes, and also took some apples, grapes and pears, and sent them to the detention room to celebrate the festival with No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3.

Then leave and take a walk in the yard.

Little did they know that Northern Liao had launched a counterattack at night, injuring hundreds of soldiers.

A vigorous war broke out on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival and ended in a draw between the two sides.

The casualties this time were quite heavy, but the military doctors were well-trained and could stop the bleeding and suture the wounds, using their speed to fight for lives.

Those who were doomed to die in the eyes of the soldiers successfully overcame their high fever and were out of danger of death thanks to the superb skills of military doctors.

When daybreak came, the outside of the tent was in a mess.

General Zhou's eldest son wrote a letter to report the military situation, and then sent a pigeon back to Youzhou.

After receiving the letter, General Zhou cut off the beginning and the end and sent it to Shangjing.

Request the emperor to allocate grain and funds to resist foreign enemies.

The new emperor has been tortured so much during this period that he is having a headache.

After receiving this urgent document, he swept all the documents on the table to the ground.
