The wild rabbit and fish that she brought back yesterday have all been cooked. Zhang Sumei really went all out to entertain her future son-in-law.
As a result, Liu Shile and the others also benefited from the meal. Liu Shile was very satisfied with this, as the person had arrived just in time. If he hadn't come today, her mother would never have cooked them.
Anyway, if we delay for just one more day, the brother and sister will go to the county town. Once they leave, Mom will cook meat for her precious children.
At the dinner table, Liu Weisong was also very happy. He was very satisfied with his future son-in-law and even chatted with him about work.
Zhang Sumei also took out some wine, which was unusual for her, and let them drink and chat. She even gave them some peanuts as a snack with the wine.
Zhang Shoujun had a high alcohol tolerance, but he didn't drink continuously. He just slowly chatted with his future father-in-law while drinking. Men, when they talk, they can be just as talkative as women.
The lively yet peaceful scene made Liu Shile pause for a moment. Actually, having a warm home is quite nice, isn't it?
There were a few more pieces of meat in the bowl. Liu Shile turned her head and saw her older sister smiling gently at her. Her older sister didn't say anything, but showed her kindness through her actions.
Out of the corner of her eye, Liu Shile caught a glimpse of her adoptive mother, whose lips were twitching. Suddenly, she felt a surge of joy. She loved seeing others dislike her but unable to do anything about it.
So she ate even more without restraint. Hmm, this dish is pretty good today. They're generous with the oil and seasonings. It tastes really good. Wouldn't it be a waste if she didn't eat more?
She deserves the most credit for these dishes, after all. If she can't eat half of them, she should at least eat a quarter of them, right?
Zhang Sumei's face stiffened. She had never seen such a shameless girl. How could a young woman eat so much in front of outsiders? Wasn't she afraid of being stuffed to death?
Thinking that all that meat had gone into that brat's mouth while her own precious son hadn't gotten much to eat, she got very angry. In the end, she could only put more food on her precious son's plate.
Liu Shiping wasn't too happy either, but he didn't dare say anything, so he could only try his best to eat more meat. However, he didn't dare to go too far, for fear of angering his sweet-smiling second sister.
After finishing her meal, Liu Shile went out for a stroll. She was going to the county town tomorrow, and she needed to go to the mountains to check on the two little ones and see if they were getting used to living in the mountains.
Uh, also, she needs to dig up more herbs and plant them on the farm. Anyway, you can never have too many medicinal herbs.
While looking for books yesterday, she came across a book called "The Book of Poisons." She plans to study poisons, even though she may not have the chance to use them, but she is quite interested in them.
If Hua Lao knew that his good disciple had actually gone to study the "Poison Classic," he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. Unfortunately, he knows nothing about it now.
He was overjoyed to see the letter from his apprentice and the things she sent. Although the girl said she wasn't his official apprentice, she was still very good to him.
Thinking about this, he suddenly felt a bit lonely spending the New Year alone, and he suddenly missed that little girl. If she had stayed by his side, his learning progress would definitely have been faster.
But the thought of seeing that little girl in a few months made him happy again. No, he had to think carefully about how to assess her when she arrived.
Then I would teach her for a period of time based on her actual situation. Unfortunately, I can't be as free as before. I can't even take her on house calls anymore.
But it's alright. I can ask my old friend to arrange something for my good apprentice later. As for improving his medical skills, we'll have to see how he performs in actual combat.
In the evening, Liu Shile had just returned from the mountains when she saw Zhang Shoujun, emboldened by alcohol, give his older sister a scarf in a very festive color.
She saw her eldest sister blush, but her eyes were filled with sweetness, as if she had eaten honey.
Liu Shile clicked her tongue twice. She thought Zhang Shoujun was a blockhead who didn't know how to pursue girls, but she didn't expect him to have a trick up his sleeve.
It seems that her eldest sister has a promising future. As for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, Liu Shile really didn't expect that, since she was a single dog.
Besides, her family is quite small; no one in her family has gotten married yet, so how could there be any mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship?
The Li family next door was the only lively place, but she never cared about things that didn't concern her, so she knew even less about these things.
Of course, even if she knew those things, she wouldn't care. Everyone has their own life, and it's unreasonable for a younger sister to interfere in her older sister's in-laws' affairs.
The next day, Liu Shihua took her younger sister to the county town. On the way, she talked to her sister about what happened yesterday and mentioned the proposal of her future brother-in-law, asking her sister what she thought of him.
Liu Shile was speechless. "Second brother, if I didn't think he was a good person, do you think I could get Mom to agree to this marriage for eldest sister?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Shihua scratched the back of his head. "That's right," he thought, "I was too blinded by my own situation. How could I forget how good my younger sister was to her older sister?"
With that, Liu Shihua was completely relieved and exclaimed, "If my elder brother knew that my elder sister was engaged, he would be so happy."
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in a military hospital, a handsome but pale-faced young man on a hospital bed twitched his fingers slightly.
Unfortunately, there was no one in the ward at the moment, so no one saw this scene. After a while, a nurse came in to check on him and shook her head with some regret.
No one knows when this person will wake up. He has been here for more than two months, and apart from his injuries healing, there has been no sign of him waking up at all.
Moreover, he was so ill, yet no relatives came to take care of him. It was truly pitiful. Little did they know that his family had no idea he had suffered such serious injuries.
Ye Shanshan felt sorry for him, especially since he was injured on duty, so she took great care of him. Many of her colleagues said she was foolish, but she knew exactly what she was doing.
This man is Liu Shihua's beloved elder brother, Liu Shiguo. However, he has been living in anonymity. He was injured during a secret mission and was sent here. His identity cannot be exposed, so even his family has not been notified.
He had no idea what had happened to his family after he fell into a coma, and the Liu family had no idea that their beloved child was lying unconscious in a hospital bed.
Hearing him mention his older brother, Liu Shile also thought of that valiant older brother who was brave and heroic outside, but doted on them terribly at home. Perhaps, it was time to ask about his older brother's situation.
With that thought in mind, she decided to ask her second brother if they could find out from the relevant departments that even though it was the Lunar New Year, there were still staff on duty.
Liu Shihua's eyes lit up. He wouldn't start work until tomorrow, so he could go to the relevant departments today to inquire about his older brother's situation.
He was both scared and panicked because there had been no news from his older brother for so long. He was so scared that he didn't dare to check on his brother's whereabouts, for fear of hearing the news of his sacrifice.
Both of them were action-oriented, and when they arrived in the county, they went to the relevant departments to inquire. However, the results they received did not make them very happy, but they did breathe a sigh of relief.
Since the reply they received was that he was missing, as long as they were not explicitly told that their older brother had sacrificed his life, then their older brother should still be alive, right?
