Bai Yalan was filled with excitement, as if someone had instantly pointed out the direction for her to move forward.
Yes, as a military doctor, her battlefield is more than just saving lives and healing the wounded.
This treasure of Chinese medicine, which has been passed down in China for nearly a thousand years, is also a battlefield for her to inherit and carry forward, and it is also a good thing that benefits the country and the people.
And if she is lucky enough to do her best for this and obtain the honor that her grandfather hopes for, then she will have no regrets in her life.
And her rebirth was not in vain.
"I understand, Grandpa. My battleground will not only be about saving the dying and healing the wounded, but also..." The girl raised her hand and clenched her fist tightly, "to spread Traditional Chinese Medicine to the world, to carry it forward, and to fight for the glory of that day!"
Seeing his granddaughter's determined expression, Mr. Bai smiled with satisfaction.
Mother Bai smiled as she carried the dishes out of the kitchen. As she walked, she said, "What are you two talking about again?" Seeing the books in their hands, she shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Dad, it's a holiday today, let's not talk about these work things."
Mr. Bai laughed heartily and said, "You won't let us help, so we're just sitting around doing nothing anyway."
In the end, he still gave face to his daughter-in-law and put down the book in his hand.
At this time, someone knocked on the door.
Bai Yalan took the initiative to run over and open the door, feeling a little strange. Who would come to visit during the holidays?
As soon as the door opened, she was stunned. Fu Yunzheng was standing outside the door, holding two large boxes in his hands.
"Captain Fu?"
Fu Yunzheng smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. He put down what he was holding and said, "Comrade Bai Yalan, I'm here on my father's orders to give him a festival gift."
Old Master Bai heard the commotion and walked over. Seeing the things on the ground, the old man couldn't help but laugh, "Hey, this old man Fu, he always said that I didn't have any family around, and he kept sending me this and that. I was so envious, but I still had to accept his favors. But today is different. Hey, my son and his family are here. Yun Zheng, tell your grandfather in the future that you don't have to be so troublesome."
Since they were specially sent here, it would be inappropriate for them to take them back. Bai Yalan quickly bent down to pick up the two large boxes, stepped aside and said, "Captain Fu, come in and sit down. Do you want to have a meal together?"
Fu Yunzheng smiled and shook his head. "No, Grandpa is still waiting for me. Grandpa Bai, and... Comrade Bai Yalan, I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." Bai Yalan also smiled and replied.
Grandpa Bai, on the other hand, yelled, "It's a big holiday, I won't delay you from going back home to reunite with your family, but at least come in and have some tea."
Fu Yunzheng still refused, "I really don't want to trouble you, Grandpa Bai. It's getting late, and I have to go home quickly."
Mr. Bai couldn't persuade her to stay any longer, so he just called out to his daughter-in-law, "Sujuan, Sujuan! Old Man Fu asked his grandson to send me some gifts. You should pick out two things as a return gift."
Mother Bai quickly responded. As a daughter-in-law, she naturally understood the interpersonal relationships best, and quickly picked out two handy items. Fu Yunzheng wanted to refuse again, but Bai Yalan took the items from her mother and handed them to him personally: "Reciprocity is the norm, Captain Fu, you should take it. This will make my grandfather feel more comfortable."
Fu Yunzheng looked at her and didn't refuse. He took the things and exchanged a few words with her before leaving.
Mr. Bai looked at the other person's back as he left, and said with satisfaction, "He's a good kid. It's just that old man Fu, he can be really annoying sometimes."
The old man was still angry, and Bai Yalan couldn't help but laugh.
She took the things back to the house and put them away. She placed the two boxes separately and realized that only the lower box felt heavy, while the smaller box on top was obviously light and seemed to have no weight.
Out of curiosity, she opened the heaviest box first. It was full and neatly arranged with things like dried meat, tea, canned food, and other relatively solid items.
Bai Yalan pushed the box aside and then opened the lightest box with great anticipation.
I wonder what is inside such a light weight?
However, as soon as the box was opened, she was stunned.
Inside the small box, there lay quietly a rabbit lantern that was as white as jade and lifelike.
Isn’t this the same one she saw at the night market yesterday?
