Shi Zhentang was very interested in this book, but when no one was around, he felt preoccupied and found it difficult to concentrate.
After Shi Weimin and Shi Weiqiang entered the ward, the two brothers quickly took out their six dollars each and showed them to him, saying proudly that they would continue to unload cement tomorrow.
"Second brother, do you agree?" Shi Weiqiang was still a little worried that he would be stopped. After all, they didn't know if they could do this kind of money-making thing.
Shi Zhentang nodded: "You can go, just pay attention to safety issues."
"OK."
Now that was good, both Shi Weiqiang and Shi Weimin showed joy on their faces.
In short, as long as Shi Zhentang agrees to do something, it will be absolutely foolproof and they don't have to worry about anything anymore.
After chatting for a while, Tian Yuzhu came over with some food.
She knew that what Shi Weiqiang and Shi Weimin lacked when they were in their hometown was meat. This time they happened to have money on hand, so it wouldn't be difficult to cook more meat dishes.
So there are delicious braised pork, cold-mixed pork head, tofu and cabbage soup, braised small melon and fried green peppers with egg drops.
The three men hurried to help her take over the load and put out various dishes one by one. Unfortunately, Shi Zhentang could only eat braised pork and tofu and cabbage soup.
He had no share of the other dishes.
"Sister-in-law, are all these for us?" Shi Weiqiang was shocked when he saw the table full of dishes.
Oh my God, he had never had such a good life under his own mother before. Two big bowls full of meat made him drool.
Tian Yuzhu smiled and said, "Of course I made it for you. Eat it quickly, or it will get cold soon."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Li Shengli was also very greedy.
"Victory, please help me add more rice and pass out chopsticks."
"Okay."
Li Shengli felt a little guilty. He was really not a human being. He even suspected his sister-in-law before.
When Tian Yuzhu took the bowl of rice, the first person she thought of was Shi Zhentang, so she picked up some food and fed him.
Shi Zhentang can now sit up and get out of bed to walk around without any problem. The key injury is in his left arm, and he is unable to lift his left hand yet.
He felt sorry for his wife: "Put the bowl on the small table and I'll eat by myself. You can eat too. It will get cold and it's not good for your stomach."
"Okay, I'll get you some food after you finish eating."
Tian Yuzhu felt a little guilty, so she settled him down and went to eat.
During the whole meal, she talked about taking care of Shi Zhentang and also deliberately led Shi Weiqiang to talk. This kid only had two things to say when he opened his mouth: either to eat the delicious food quickly or to talk about the six dollars he earned today.
When the meal was almost finished, I remembered something: "Oh, sister-in-law, I have to complain to you."
"What's wrong?"
Shi Weimin seemed to know what he was going to say and quickly said, "Third brother, don't say unimportant things."
Shi Weiqiang stiffened his neck and said, "It's important. How can you say that Xiaoli ran away with Lu Juanjuan is not important?"
"What?"
Shi Xiaoli ran away with Lu Juanjuan?
It's... quite shocking. Reform and opening up hadn't been implemented yet, but Lu Juanjuan was completely crazy. She even took Shi Xiaoli with her when she left.
Shi Weiqiang glanced at Shi Zhentang's expression before continuing, "They had been planning to run away. Later, the village party secretary became concerned and ordered people to follow them, fearing they would get into trouble. But somehow, they weren't watched closely enough, and they still managed to escape."
"Dad went to the town and the county seat for several days looking for her, but couldn't find her." Shi Weimin saw that things had come to this point and had no choice but to continue: "Zhentang, Xiaoli is our brother after all, and I'm worried that something might happen to her."
Shi Zhentang's face darkened. "With her brain, she didn't even know that Lu Juanjuan sold her out and she was helping others count the money. I'll go out and make a phone call later. I have a comrade in the county police department over there. I'll ask him to help look for her."
Speaking of old comrade He Song, he was also responsible for the poisoning case of Yang Dahua.
"That's great." Shi Weimin's eyes lit up.
After all, she is his own sister, and he doesn't want anything to happen to Xiaoli.
After dinner, Shi Zhentang planned to go out to make a phone call, but he had only been in surgery for two days and the nurse refused to let him go.
Finally, I went to the dean to compromise and let him go to the dean's office to fight.
Tian Yuzhu and others were waiting for him outside the office.
Not long after, he came out and said, "The call went through. It's like reporting a missing persons case directly. He Hao will make arrangements."
"Then you should go back and rest. The doctor told you not to walk for too long." Tian Yuzhu hurried over to support him.
The group returned to the ward, and Shi Zhentang lay down with a pale face.
The wound began to feel a dull pain, and he wasn't sure if it was inflammation, but he didn't say anything in front of everyone.
"Shengli, it's getting late. You don't have to stay in the hospital. I'll leave my brother and the third brother to you. Take them there and get some rest."
"Then let's take the dishes over and wash them."
Li Shengli still felt a little guilty, and he thought that whatever he could do would be helpful.
Shi Weiqiang asked anxiously, "Brother Shengli, are we still going to the movies?"
"Go, go back to the rental house and wash the dishes first."
"Okay."
After the three of them left chatting and laughing, only Tian Yuzhu and Shi Zhentang were left in the ward.
There seemed to be some kind of repressive force flowing in the air. Tian Yuzhu's heart was in turmoil and she couldn't decide whether to confess to him.
But in the end, she convinced herself that as long as he didn't ask, she would pretend not to know?
"Zhentang, I have to go home tomorrow."
Shi Zhentang closed the book and asked, "Go back and get your things?"
"No, I want to go back and wash my clothes and take a shower."
"That's called sending you back victoriously."
"That's not necessary. If he sends me back to the military dependents' quarters, it will make too much noise and alert everyone to come out and ask questions. I'll take the bus back by myself, but I might be back a little late. Let Shengli get food from the People's Canteen tomorrow."
"And this money..."
She took out a hundred yuan and placed it under Shi Zhentang's pillow: "You borrowed the money from Shengli. You should settle the matter between you two brothers. You should also pay him back. Pay him back fifty yuan, and let him get the rest for lunch tomorrow."
Shi Zhentang did not rush to agree to her, and there was a hint of scrutiny in his dark eyes.
When Tian Yuzhu felt uncomfortable, she asked, "Really, you don't need him to send you off?"
"Really."
"Then go quickly and come back soon."
He reached out and took her small hand, sighing, "I'm going to miss you."
At this moment, Tian Yuzhu felt a little sorry for him.
He trusted her 100%, but she didn't have the courage to tell him the truth. However, she thought of a way: "Have you heard the myth about the fox fairy? It tells the story of a woman who died and came back to life because she had the fox spirit of the fox fairy in her body."
"You can also tell fairy tales. Come and tell them to me."
Shi Zhentang immediately put down his hand and looked at her with interest.
Tian Yuzhu smiled and said, "I also heard an aunt say this when I was washing clothes by the well in the rental house..."
