"I am Wang Tianxiao," Wang Tianxiao looked at the female doctor with curiosity. She was quite pretty. Although she had single eyelids, her eyes were very bright. She had a well-shaped nose, thin but not stiff lips, and a typical oval face. At first glance, she even had a bit of the look of Lin Daiyu.
It looks like I've seen it somewhere before.
"Do we know each other?" Although he was fairly good-looking, he wasn't the kind of person who was very popular with women. This was mainly because he was very dull, stubborn, and timid when he was young in his previous life.
Not many girls were willing to get close to him.
Finding Li Yali was purely due to good fortune from a past life; even he himself found it unbelievable.
"It's me, Zhao Xin. Don't you recognize me?"
Zhao Xin?
Wang Tianxiao genuinely couldn't remember this person anymore. Besides, he was currently extremely anxious and had no mood to reminisce about the past.
At this moment, the two had arrived at the ward door, and the doctor named Zhao Xin did not continue the conversation, but went in to check on the child's condition.
She lifted the child's eyelids to look at him, then checked his pulse, and looked up with a smile, saying, "Don't worry, it's just mild jaundice, it's not a serious problem, it will go away soon."
"Really?" Li Yali asked nervously.
“I’m a doctor, would I lie to you?” Zhao Xin laughed heartily, smoothing his short hair back from his forehead like a boy. “Besides, Wang Tianxiao is my old classmate, so I have to be even more careful.”
"Classmate?" Wang Tianxiao felt a chill run down his spine. Zhao Xin was about the same age as him, but he only went to junior high school before dropping out. However, he knew most of his elementary school classmates from the same village, so if Zhao Xin was really his classmate, it could only be a junior high school classmate.
Can.
Even junior high school was forty years ago. Back then, everyone was still in their teens. He only remembered a few people in the village; he had long forgotten everyone else.
"You really have a short memory; you've already forgotten about how you broke my nose."
Um?
Hearing this, Li Yali stared at her man curiously.
I had no idea you had such a glorious past, even breaking a female classmate's nose. You kept it a secret for a long time.
"So it was you!"
Wang Tianxiao suddenly realized that the past was coming back to him like flowing water.
He then took a closer look at Zhao Xin and indeed found that there were still faint traces of her teenage years in her eyes and brows.
This is what happened back then.
Wang Tianxiao had to take care of his younger siblings after finishing his work at night, so he finished his homework too late and didn't get enough rest. He fell asleep in class the next day.
When Zhao Xin, who was sitting next to the teacher, saw the teacher coming, she kindly reminded him by poking him. When that didn't wake him up, she poked him harder. Unexpectedly, this made him angry, and he casually blocked the teacher with his fist.
Unfortunately, the fist hit Zhao Xin's nose, breaking it and causing it to bleed profusely.
He was terrified and hurriedly tried to make Zhao Xin lift her head up, but Zhao Xin only knew how to cry and wouldn't listen. Blood soaked the clothes in front of her.
The incident ended with Wang Tianxiao being severely scolded by his mother, going to the other party's home to pay for their medical expenses and apologize.
Judging from Zhao Xin's age, this incident must have happened seven or eight years ago, so she must remember it clearly. But according to Wang Tianxiao's memory, it was forty years ago. He only remembered that such an event occurred, but he couldn't recall the specific details clearly.
As for the emotional changes that followed the incident, there was absolutely no trace of them.
"Do you remember now?" Zhao Xin asked, staring at him.
Wang Tianxiao was slightly embarrassed. Thinking back on the events of his youth evoked a special feeling. He scratched his head and said apologetically, "Sorry, I just remembered."
Feeling that this was impolite, he added, "I was young and ignorant back then and accidentally hurt you. I'm sorry."
"Haha, why are you bringing this up again? If you didn't forget me, I wouldn't want to bring it up either," Zhao Xin said, patting his shoulder with a laugh.
Wang Tianxiao's memory of Zhao Xin was vague; he had forgotten her personality and never expected her to be such a lively and cheerful girl.
He smiled and told Li Yali their story.
When Li Yali heard that her husband had such "heroic deeds" when he was young, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. Then she apologized to Zhao Xin on behalf of her husband.
Even though it was a mistake made when a teenager was young and didn't know any better, it is still necessary to express appropriate apologies as an adult.
Zhao Xin laughed heartily and said that she had long since stopped caring about it.
The three chatted for a few more minutes before Zhao Xin had to return to her office, and Wang Tianxiao went out to see her off.
The two continued their conversation in the hospital corridor, discussing their previous topics. When they talked about their work, Wang Tianxiao learned that Zhao Xin had studied all the way up to high school and eventually got into a traditional Chinese medicine college. Now she was a full-time intern.
Wang Tianxiao had a sudden thought and asked her if she was quite knowledgeable about Chinese herbal medicine since she was a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Zhao Xin admitted that she was indeed quite knowledgeable, and the cultivation and processing of Chinese herbal medicine was one of their key specialties.
Taking the opportunity, Wang Tianxiao told Zhao Xin about his plan to plant various herbs in the mountains, inviting her to come and provide guidance, suggestions, and professional knowledge when she had time.
Zhao Xin readily accepted, as she was also very interested in herb cultivation.
When Wang Tianxiao returned to his ward, he was still full of excitement. He had been worried that once the medicinal herbs were planted, the lack of professional theoretical guidance might lead to a lack of understanding and the yield and quality would not reach a satisfactory level.
Zhao Xin suddenly appeared in front of us; it was as if a talent had fallen from the sky.
Seeing the smile on his face, Li Yali joked, "Look at you, you're so happy to run into an old classmate. Aren't you afraid I'll get jealous and upset?"
Wang Tianxiao sat down on the bed with a smile, gently putting his arm around his wife's shoulder. "Of course I'm not afraid. There are thousands of good women in the world, what does it have to do with me? You know my little heart is too small, it can only hold Comrade Li Yali, no one else can squeeze in."
"puff."
"Glib-tongued."
Wang Tianxiao was about to continue joking when the ward door was suddenly pushed open, and a young woman in a bright red fur coat strode in. As if she didn't see Wang Tianxiao, she rushed to the bedside, looked at Xiao Wangpeng, and said excitedly, "Oh my, this is my nephew!"
"Yaqin, be gentle, the child shouldn't be exposed to the wind."
Li Yali smiled and patted the person who came down on the shoulder.
Li Yaqin, the second daughter of the Li family, married into Zuojia Village, west of Qingquan Town, about six or seven li away from Lijia Village and more than ten li away from Wangjia Village.
Zuojia Village is one of the wealthiest villages in Qingquan Town. It has had a village-run enterprise, an almond processing plant, since very early times.
Li Yaqin's husband, Zuo Shengli, is the village party secretary of Zuojia Village. His family also owns an oil press and is quite wealthy. Judging from her attire, it must have cost several hundred yuan.
