Chapter 84 Jiang Duo, have you ever lied to me?
In the morning, Mingzhu woke up to the sound of roosters crowing and found that Jiang Duo was no longer in the house.
She stretched her lazy waist and got up to go to the yard, where she saw Zhou Changming doing Tai Chi and Jiang Duo watering the flowers in the corner.
Mingzhu smiled and greeted him: "Good morning, Master, I didn't expect you to do Tai Chi!"
She was in a trance for a moment, as if she saw retired elderly people doing morning exercises in the park in the future.
Zhou Changming performed the movements slowly, "I learned how to take care of my body and mind when I was young. You got up so late, you must be hungry? Your captain Jiang left breakfast in the pot for you, go and eat it."
Mingzhu glanced at Jiang Duo, "Now we not only have to live in our master's house, but also eat his food?"
After watering the flowers, Jiang Duo put the ladle back into the iron bucket, "Old Zhou kindly invited us to stay."
Mingzhu chuckled, he was really honest, he would eat if someone invited him to stay.
But she was more honest, so she rolled up her sleeves and said directly: "Then I won't be polite, Master. You don't have to cook for lunch and dinner. I'll cook at home and bring it over."
Zhou Changming shook his head helplessly, "Are you so clear about the difference between you and your master?"
"No," Mingzhu smiled charmingly with a smile, "I just think my master's cooking is bad."
Jiang Duo's expression froze when he heard this. Why did the little girl say whatever she wanted? "Mingzhu, don't be naughty."
Mingzhu stuck out her tongue at him, turned around and skipped to the kitchen to eat.
Jiang Duo turned to look at Zhou Changming again, "She just said it casually, don't mind it."
Zhou Changming was already amused by Mingzhu and laughed heartily: "How can it be nonsense? My apprentice is being honest. The food I cooked really doesn't taste that good. I've had enough."
Jiang Duo:...
After Zhou Changming finished Tai Chi, he did not forget to tease Jiang Duo: "You are really lucky. You married such a good girl. Your life will not be boring in the future."
Jiang Duo looked in the direction of the kitchen with his remaining eyes, and his eyebrows softened a little. It was indeed the case.
His life, which had been boring for more than 20 years, was completely overturned after he met Mingzhu.
He originally thought that he knew few girls and didn't understand them, but recently he observed carefully and found that Mingzhu was indeed different.
As long as he could be sure that the incident had nothing to do with her, then the future life... really made him look forward to it.
After breakfast, Mingzhu helped Jiang Duo change the gauze on his head, as Zhou Changming's house had a lot of medical supplies.
Zhou Changming was about to give instructions, but seeing Mingzhu's skilled technique, he couldn't help but wonder: "Where did you learn how to bandage?"
Mingzhu's movements suddenly paused, and she felt guilty for a moment. What's going on? Is the bandaging method of this era different from that of later generations?
Jiang Duo noticed the stiffness of the little woman, and his eyes lightly swept across her face.
Mingzhu rolled her eyes and asked frankly: "Do I need to learn this? Can't I just wrap it casually?"
Zhou Changming raised his eyebrows, casually? This is not just a casual bandaging...
"This is a professional bandaging technique. Mingzhu, you are really a good candidate for medical studies. You must study hard and find a way to work in a hospital in the future, otherwise it will be a waste of your talent!"
Mingzhu agreed with a smile. After wrapping the wound, she went out with Jiang Duo. She wanted to go home, while Jiang Duo had to go to the brigade to take care of something.
On the way, seeing that the man remained silent, Mingzhu nudged him with her elbow, "Why don't you speak? Are you worried about something?"
Jiang Duo looked at her sideways and asked in a low voice, "I'll ask you a question, can you answer me honestly?"
Mingzhu took his arm and couldn't help laughing, "Ask me, I will answer you honestly as long as I know."
Jiang Duo's face was more serious, and every word he said was serious, "You haven't just learned some medical skills, have you? You know a lot, and everything is very professional."
It's better to say that he gave a judgment than a question.
Mingzhu still had a smile on her lips, her expression didn't change at all, but she felt inexplicably uneasy in her heart, as if she was seen through and didn't know what to do.
But since Jiang Duo said it so directly, she had to give a positive response.
This time Mingzhu nodded seriously, "I told you about my grandmother's family background before, but there is a part I didn't tell you. In fact, in the generation of my grandmother's grandfather, someone had learned Western medicine from foreign missionaries. So what my grandmother knew and taught me is much more than what is written in the files. Naturally, I know much more than you think. Common diseases are not difficult for me."
Jiang Duo frowned. In other words, she knows medical skills and is proficient in treating diseases?
For a moment, he felt mixed emotions and couldn't help but think of the news he had investigated before...
The 'target person' had been seriously injured before, but there was no record of him being treated in the hospital. Obviously, that person had a companion who knew medical skills, or the target person himself knew medical skills...
Jiang Duo's eyes gradually darkened, and Mingzhu noticed his expression change, not knowing why.
She held her breath, thought for a while and then took the initiative to hug his waist, her delicate body pressed against his, looking up at him, "Jiang Duo, why don't you look surprised at all? You think it's not good that I'm proficient in these things?"
Jiang Duo stared into her eyes for a long time, he said: "That's not what I meant, it's just... Mingzhu, I hope you will never lie to me."
Don't lie to him...
Mingzhu felt a little guilty, after all, she didn't learn medical skills from her grandmother, she made them up -
but she swore solemnly: "I won't lie to you, Captain Jiang, how come you are so careful, if you don't know, you would think you are always being fooled!"
As she spoke, she moved her hands up and hugged his neck, and she jumped up and hung on him, her slender legs tightly wrapped around his waist.
Jiang Duo was afraid that she would fall, so he hugged her.
"Look, I've lived here since I was a child, and it's the same thing over and over again. You know it all, don't you? But you are different. You were sent here from outside. I don't know where your home was before, and what relatives you have. If I really have to worry about being deceived, it should be me who should worry, right? Jiang Duo, have you ever lied to me?"
Now, it was Jiang Duo's turn to be silent.
In addition to what he found out, to some extent, he did... hide a lot of things from her.
Especially his identity, and this marriage that she couldn't leave in the future...
Mingzhu noticed that Jiang Duo avoided her gaze, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
The deeper the feelings for a person, the more you want to understand the other person.
However, Mingzhu believes Jiang Duo. He must have his reasons for not saying anything. Let's take it slow.
She jumped off Jiang Duo and took his hand instead. "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'm going home. You should hurry to the team too."
"Okay."
The two separated at the intersection.
Mingzhu was strolling alone. Before she got home, she vaguely heard a man crying -
"Mingzhu, you damned bastard, come out here! You actually killed someone to silence him, my poor girl..."
