Shi Weimin, who was always cautious, was frightened and quickly reminded: "Lao San, keep your voice down and don't attract attention. We have money on us."
Yes, it was the sixteen yuan he earned from unloading cement with great effort. This was a huge sum of money for Shi Weimin.
But Shi Weiqiang raised his voice in disdain: "What are you afraid of, big brother? Don't forget that when I was back home, I could kill a wild boar with one punch. If any ignorant thief dares to target me, I will punch him down and let him know what's happening."
Shi Weimin glared: "..."
When did he kill a wild boar?
boast!!!
Only then did I realize that this guy was really good at bragging, and I couldn't help but agree: "Yes, you are so awesome!"
Unexpectedly, these two sentences of conversation really scared the thief who had been following them.
It turned out that the thief had set his sights on the two of them before they boarded the train. When he saw a soldier coming to see them off, he thought the two silly brothers must have something valuable on them.
When the thief heard that one punch could kill a wild boar, he immediately gave up the idea of stealing their pockets.
The green train rumbled towards the distant hometown...
The two brothers of the Shi family squeezed in front of the window and watched the scenery outside the car receding, and they were in a good mood all the way.
On the other hand, Shi Zhentang and Tian Yuzhu went to the rental house on Heishi Street and then went to see the old house with three entrances and three exits.
Shi Zhentang was truly astonished: "I never thought there would be such a well-preserved ancient house in the county town."
You should know that in the early years, this side of the border also suffered major invasion wars.
At that time, the two armies were fighting, and not only could the buildings be preserved, even people's lives could not be guaranteed.
Tian Yuzhu introduced him to Grandma Qiao's family situation. As for how the house could be preserved, she thought it was mostly due to luck.
Fortunately, no shells landed on the house.
Since two hours had passed since Shi Zhentang sneaked out of the hospital, the two hurried back after visiting the old house.
As for the fact that she had already bought the old house, Tian Yuzhu did not tell him for the time being.
Who would have thought that as soon as they reached the ward door, they would encounter such an embarrassing situation: "..."
There were several nurses standing in the ward, including the head nurse.
They all lowered their heads and were being scolded by the dean.
"You can even lose a living person. How do you do your job? Do you have any sense of responsibility?"
This... is all my fault.
Shi Zhentang immediately stepped forward: "Comrade Dean, I'm really sorry. It's not their fault that I left the ward without permission. I sneaked out on my own..."
"No, no, no, it was my idea. It's too boring to stay in the hospital all day, so I wanted him to go out for a walk." Tian Yuzhu also hurried forward to explain.
I feel a little embarrassed because these nurses are usually very nice and responsible.
Now we are all implicated by them!
Seeing how well they admitted their mistakes, the dean actually felt a little awkward. "Captain Shi, this is what's happening. The higher-ups have repeatedly told us to take good care of your condition. You see... I'm worried too, afraid that something might happen to your health again."
"I know, don't worry, everything will be fine."
"I knew you were restless."
Wen Jiangong, dressed in military uniform, suddenly walked in. He raised his hand and clicked his fingers: "Zhentang, you can't joke with your own body."
Shi Zhentang immediately straightened his posture and said, "Please rest assured, leader. I know my own health."
Wen Jiangong was followed by his wife, Wang Xiudi, who was carrying a bag of things. She cheerfully tried to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, this isn't the military, everyone, relax a little."
Wen Jiangong then checked in with the hospital director about the patient's condition. "If Captain Shi really can't stay in the ward, would it be okay for him to return to the military region for further recuperation?"
The dean adjusted his glasses anxiously and said, "On the surface, there's nothing wrong. But you need to go back to the military area for recuperation and undergo a full examination."
Shi Zhentang quickly said, "Sure, I'll cooperate with the comprehensive inspection."
The dean added, "Captain Shi's injury appears to be almost healed, but it will take time for his left arm to fully recover. We can only do it slowly."
"Okay, I understand." Wen Jiangong learned some more about the situation and asked the director and the nurse to leave first. He wanted to talk to Shi Zhentang.
Soon there were only four people left in the ward.
Before Wen Jiangong could speak, Wang Xiu Di was busy opening the bundle.
There were meat pies she baked, and steamed dumplings, the cabbage filling of which was made from vegetables grown in their own fields.
Wang Xiudi happily handed these things to Tian Yuzhu one by one. "I know you can eat these in the People's Canteen, but my sister-in-law's cooking skills are excellent. I still have confidence in this. When it's time for lunch, you can ask the nurse to heat them up and you can eat them."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Tian Yuzhu was grateful to her from the bottom of her heart.
No matter whether there is a shortage of food in any era, she will prepare it by hand and deliver it to the guests. This is something that can only be done by treating the other person as a family member.
"Sister-in-law, let me pour you a cup of tea!"
"No, just sit down and don't bother."
For some reason, Tian Yuzhu felt that Wang Xiudie's eyes were flickering.
She stopped pouring tea.
Wen Jiangong had already started talking: "Zhentang, the army will hold a commendation meeting for the results of the military competition in a few days. This time, because you were injured while leading the team to rescue someone, the subsequent military competition will be completed by He Ziqiang. As you know the result, he took first place in all subjects, so..."
"No, Comrade Political Commissar, I have to give you my opinion. The first part of the military competition was completed by Zhentang, and he also won first place. Only the last hurdle is left. We can't attribute all the military achievements to He Ziqiang."
Listening to the tone, Tian Yuzhu felt that something was not right, and she stood up anxiously to refute it.
"Yuzhu, please listen to what he has to say first." Wang Xiudi hurriedly pulled her arm.
Shi Zhentang also said, "Yuzhu, please sit down."
He would never speak of his wife in such a tone, but now it was the leader who was speaking, and more importantly, Shi Zhentang knew Wen Jiangong's character.
In addition, the army is not a mixed bag of people, and whether it is punishment or reward, everything is clear.
Tian Yuzhu couldn't help but glare at the man.
She was speaking for him, why was he using that tone?
This scene made Wen Jiangong laugh. "Xiaotian, don't worry. I haven't finished what I'm saying. What I mean is that at the commendation meeting, there was He Ziqiang and Shi Zhentang. As the saying goes, when you drink water, you should remember the well-digger. Everyone has witnessed Zhentang's performance in the previous military competition."
Tian Yuzhu thought, can you only give me half of the military medal?
No wonder Sister Xiu Di looked a little guilty just now.
However, thinking that the man needed to save face, she didn't say anything for the time being, but looked at the other person to see how he would react.
