When the aunts who came to see the patient saw Qian Xiaolan and her husband coming, they kept looking at Qian Xiaolan and smiling meaningfully.
Qian Xiaolan tried her best not to look at them, opened the door of the clinic and walked in.
Perhaps considering Gu Yanqing's identity as an officer, they did not say inappropriate things as they usually did.
Gu Yanqing stayed with them for a while, and felt relieved when he saw that the aunts did not do anything else except look at them insolently.
He checked the time and said to Qian Xiaolan, "Wife, you are not very busy here now. I will go to the commune and send the things by the way."
Qian Xiaolan waved her hand and said, "Go ahead. I've put some things on the table in the room. Take them and distribute them to your comrades."
Gu Yanqing was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile: "Okay, I'll thank you on their behalf."
As soon as Gu Yanqing left, the looks of those aunts became even more presumptuous.
An aunt stared at Qian Xiaolan for a while, patted her thigh and laughed:
"Have you noticed that Dr. Qian looks particularly good today?"
The other aunts echoed: "That's right, I was just about to ask Dr. Qian what methods he used to maintain his health."
"Well, do you even need to ask? Captain Gu came back last night, but he couldn't get up this morning. Oh, this short separation is better than a new marriage. Maybe there will be a little life in her belly next month."
"Isn't it? This woman still needs the nourishment of a man. Look at her face, it's so rosy that you can squeeze water out of it."
…
Qian Xiaolan thought that it was impossible for a new life to be born so quickly.
In order to prevent her from having children early, her mother sent her a lot of burp bags from Beijing.
However, she still pretended to blush even more at what they said, and then fought back without giving in.
When an aunt who loved to make fun of her the most came to see her, she took a look at her aunt's complexion and smiled slightly:
"Aunt Lin, even though Uncle Lin only comes back once every two weeks, you still have to take it easy.
From feeling your pulse today, I can tell that you are in great physical distress."
Aunt Lin was dumbfounded.
"Puff"
"Puff"
…
Others burst into laughter.
Everyone shut up, fearing that they would continue talking and Qian Xiaolan would say something embarrassing in public.

When Gu Yanqing returned home and opened the door, he saw the table full of things.
There were six cans of canned lychees and peaches, six packs of egg cakes, and six bags of fresh loquats.
Gu Yanqing was touched. He had just casually mentioned yesterday that he would go to the hospital to visit six comrades today.
His wife prepared everything quietly.
After Gu Yanqing carried a lot of bags and took a boat to the commune, he first sent the things to his family and parents-in-law.
Then he would call home to ask about their family's latest news and show off his wife to his parents.
What did he hear in the end?
"You little brat, you still remember to call back?
Xiaolan has sent us several letters.
What? Xiaolan sent something home again?
Haha, my Xiaolan is so good. You little brat are not even as good as her.
Tell Xiaolan not to send anything back anymore. She has already sent things home three times this month.
Send more to your mother-in-law. They are in the city, and the supplies there are not as abundant as in our village.
Tell Xiaolan to take care of herself and not to get too tired from seeing patients.
Okay, okay, phone calls are expensive, if you have something to say, just write a letter, bye."
After Hu Guifen answered the call, she spoke a lot and then hung up, not giving Gu Yanqing a chance to speak.
Gu Yanqing put the receiver back depressedly. After paying the phone bill, he took the remaining things and went to the hospital to visit his comrades.
He hadn't had the chance to show off to his mother how great his wife's medical skills were.
Hey!
He arrived at the hospital sighing, looked at the things in his hand and smiled again.
Six comrades were in one ward, and he distributed their things to them one by one.
He also added: "As soon as my wife heard that you were injured, she prepared these things for me to send to you. Is my wife okay?"
Everyone nodded in confusion: "Sister-in-law is so kind, the battalion commander will thank her for us."
Gu Yanqing sat down on the stool and said proudly:
"You don't know yet, do you? I just went on a mission and came home. Your sister-in-law's medical skills have spread throughout the entire White Dragon Island."
"Yeah, that's right. She has too many patients in her clinic now. She's exhausted every day."
"Qianjin, Fugui, Mancang, Weijun, Shitou, Tiezhu, your sister-in-law is so good to you, you don't want her to suffer so much, right?"
The six people were full of questions.
Zhao Qianjin asked doubtfully, "But Captain, we are injured now, how can we help my sister-in-law?"
Sun Fugui nodded: "Yes, Captain, we are not studying medicine, so we can't help my sister-in-law even if we want to."
Gu Yanqing pointed at Li Mancang and said, "If I remember correctly, Mancang has a 15-year-old sister. She got special approval to come with the army two years ago, right?"
Li Mancang's eyes lit up: "Sister-in-law, are you going to accept a disciple? Are you interested in my Xingxing?"
Gu Yanqing raised his hand to interrupt him: "Don't think too much, it's just recruiting an assistant. Whether you can be selected depends on your sister-in-law's review."
Li Mancang nodded: "This is natural.
It’s just that although my sister is hardworking and capable, she is too shy and I’m afraid she doesn’t dare to interact with others.”
Gu Yanqing didn't care about that and said directly: "I have given you the opportunity. Whether you want to seize it or not is none of my business."
"And the five of you will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and return to the base to recuperate. Each of you should introduce me to a reliable female comrade. Don't be old, don't be newly married, and don't be illiterate."
"Once you are selected, whether you can learn a lot of skills is another matter, but the supplies you need every month are quite a lot."
Li Mancang suddenly felt that his sister was under a lot of pressure.
The other five people nodded and immediately started to think about the lesbians they had met.
Gu Yanqing arranged the tasks and went back feeling relaxed.
Three days later, people introduced by Li Mancang's sister Li Xingxing and five other comrades came to Qian Xiaolan's clinic.
All six of them were unmarried girls, and they all wore their latest clothes for the interview today.
Qian Xiaolan only looked at them once and then eliminated two of them.
One girl showed disdain towards the patient, while the other girl looked proud.
Qian Xiaolan asked them to leave, but they still looked dissatisfied. One of the girls asked angrily:
"You didn't even test us, why are you asking us to go back? You don't take my dad seriously!"
Qian Xiaolan's expression also turned cold:
"What does it have to do with me who your father is? This is the village clinic, and the patients are mostly from the village. You look so arrogant and don't take them seriously at all. Can you do this job well?"
"And you, as my assistant, have to do a lot of work, and sometimes you have to help the disabled aunties and uncles go to the toilet.
You look disgusted just by walking to this station. Do you think you can do this job well?"
