Chapter 131 Is that so?
Have a good night's sleep.
The horn for work sounded as usual. Xie Jiaojiao, who didn't need to go to work for the time being, simply turned over and continued to sleep soundly.
At the entrance of the educated youth center, Su Yu and Liu Niannian, who happened to bump into each other, looked at each other, and a tacit understanding flashed in each other's eyes.
Xie Jiaojiao, who was sleeping, was unaware of all this.
Until there was a knock on the door.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, are you awake?"
Xie Jiaojiao, who was in a daze, suddenly became much clearer when she heard Jiang Zhu's voice.
She quickly got up, took out a convenient dress from the closet, put it on, and opened the door.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Jiang Zhu smiled shyly, "Ahem, my brother said that my sister-in-law's hand is injured and she's having trouble moving, so he asked me to help."
asshole.
He had the nerve to say it, but she was too embarrassed to order him around.
Xie Jiaojiao's fair face flushed, "Don't listen to your brother's nonsense, it's nothing, I can handle this little injury."
Jiang Zhu avoided the topic and put the bowl and chopsticks in his hands on the table.
"Sister-in-law, you haven't eaten yet, right? Mother made some rice porridge this morning, and I brought a bowl for you."
"Thank Mom for me."
"Okay." Jiang Zhu agreed and, following his brother's description, found the pink basin Xie Jiaojiao used to wash her face. "Ahem, sister-in-law, wait a moment. I'll go get some water."
"Brother, no need, I..."
Before Xie Jiaojiao could finish her words of obstruction, Jiang Zhu turned around and left.
Two minutes later, Jiang Zhu came in with half a basin of water.
Xie Jiaojiao tried to take it, but Jiang Zhu dodged her.
He stood aside, his posture straight, but his eyebrows lowered, and his whole body exuded a kind of loneliness that came from being despised by the world and finding no value in his existence.
"Ahem, sister-in-law, do you also despise Ah Zhu for being useless? Can't do anything right?"
"No." Xie Jiaojiao's eyes widened. "Brother, I definitely didn't mean that."
"My brother is great, better than anyone else."
Xie Jiaojiao spoke cautiously while stealing glances at Jiang Zhu's expression, fearing that she might accidentally hurt his sensitive and fragile heart.
Looking at Xie Jiaojiao's nervous and concerned look, Jiang Zhu said silently in his heart: Sister-in-law, I'm sorry.
Special circumstances require special treatment.
After that, Xie Jiaojiao no longer stopped Jiang Zhu from working.
The main reason is that I don’t dare.
Jiang Zhu soaked the face towel and handed it to Xie Jiaojiao.
Xie Jiaojiao took it and breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't wipe it for her.
After wiping, Jiang Zhu took the towel and handed Xie Jiaojiao the soap. "Sister-in-law, you continue. I'll go get a basin of clean water."
Looking at Jiang Zhu's leaving back, Xie Jiaojiao vaguely felt that this process was somewhat familiar.
Oh, yes.
Brother, how do you know she is so particular about washing her face?
Jiangye!
Xie Jiaojiao figured it out, and two small flames suddenly flashed in her watery eyes.
So irresponsible.
If Jiang Zhu was as strong as a calf like his younger brother Xie Jianjun, Xie Jiaojiao would enjoy it very naturally.
Unfortunately, that was not the case. Her younger brother was a patient himself, and Xie Jiaojiao felt embarrassed to ask him to take care of her, an adult.
But Jiang Ye still took it for granted and ordered her around, which made Xie Jiaojiao very angry.
But since Jiang Ye was not around, he could only keep it in mind and deal with it later.
After washing her face with great difficulty, Xie Jiaojiao thought that was the end of it, but unexpectedly Jiang Zhu calmly picked up the porridge bowl, scooped a spoonful of rice porridge, and fed it to Xie Jiaojiao's mouth, "Sister-in-law, drink some porridge."
Xie Jiaojiao didn't say the words of refusal. When she met Jiang Zhu's self-deprecating and sensitive eyes, she turned away and opened her mouth to drink in agony.
Because she was embarrassed, Xie Jiaojiao drank very quickly.
She didn't know how much sugar was added to the porridge, it was so sweet that it made her teeth fall out, but the moment she finished drinking it, she actually thought it was quite delicious.
"Brother, I'm fine here, you can go back."
After Xie Jiaojiao realized something was wrong, she added, "Well, I'll take you back."
"No, there's something else."
"Sister-in-law, stretch out your hand. The medicine hasn't been applied yet."
When washing up just now, Xie Jiaojiao used the palms of her hands to exert as much force as possible, carefully avoiding water stains and soap bubbles, but even so, the white gauze on her fingertips could not avoid being stained with a little bit.
Apply medicine?
The scene of Jiang Ye giving medicine last night suddenly popped up in her mind, and Xie Jiaojiao's face turned red.
Xie Jiaojiao, not sure what Jiang Yedu and Jiang Zhu had told her, quickly refused, "Brother, I can do it myself."
"Sister-in-law, are you dissatisfied with my harsh words?" Jiang Zhu said in a self-pitying tone.
"No, absolutely not."
"Then, sister-in-law, please stretch out your hand. I will apply the medicine on you."
Xie Jiaojiao stretched out her hand in a daze.
Jiang Zhu gently removed the gauze and began to apply medicine, while Xie Jiaojiao's body was stiff, not daring to breathe, staring at Jiang Zhu's every move intently.
Fortunately, Jiang Ye is not that reckless.
I didn’t say much about things that shouldn’t be explained.
Jiang Zhu cleaned it properly, applied medicine, and wrapped it with gauze.
I don’t know if it’s because she applied the medicine more often, which enhanced her immunity, or because Xie Jiaojiao was extremely nervous and didn’t want to lose her dignity as sister-in-law in front of Jiang Zhu, but she didn’t even cry out in pain.
After applying the medicine, only his eyes were red.
Seeing Xie Jiaojiao's furrowed brows and red eyes, Jiang Zhu had an idea.
In one’s life, there will be more or less minor illnesses and disasters.
How can you be sick without pain? How can you be sick without feeling uncomfortable?
And my sister-in-law seems to be particularly sensitive in this regard...
He wanted to prepare a medicine that would make people feel no pain after drinking it.
"Sister-in-law, my brother will come over at noon to bring you food and medicine."
"Um."
Very good, we can settle the bill at noon.
"Ahem, ahem, if sister-in-law has nothing else to do, I'll go back first."
Suddenly, Xie Jiaojiao remembered something and stopped Jiang Zhu.
"Brother, what were you and Uncle Lin doing yesterday? Why did you ask me to help you hide it from your brother?"
Jiang Zhu, who was worried about Xie Jiaojiao, became more determined in his thoughts.
"Sister-in-law, Uncle Lin and I are studying medicine."
"That's great." Xie Jiaojiao's eyes sparkled, and she was very happy for Jiang Zhu. "From now on, our Ah Zhu will be an amazing doctor, saving lives and healing the wounded."
Xie Jiaojiao, who was in high spirits, did not notice that Jiang Zhu's eyes flickered when he heard the words "save the dying and heal the wounded".
"Then why don't you want to tell your elder brother?" Xie Jiaojiao couldn't help but wonder.
"Master, your medical skills are a family tradition and are not passed down to outsiders. If I study medicine, I will have to change my surname."
"I'm afraid my eldest brother will blame me for not wanting the Jiang family anymore."
"Nonsense." Xie Jiaojiao scolded with a stern face, "You little kid, just imagining nonsense."
"Even if you are adopted as someone else's son, you are still your eldest brother's brother, sharing the same blood. No one can sever the relationship between you two."
Jiang Zhu's mind moved.
is that so?
So, the eldest brother didn't blame him.
"Now that you've become my disciple, you should learn from Uncle Lin." Xie Jiaojiao consoled him. "Your elder brother is nowhere to be found. If he dares to blame you, I'll punish him."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Jiang Zhu spit out the bomb without saying a word.
