Chapter 236 Follow the Man
Seeing his old friend in a daze, the old man tapped unhappily and said, "Why? I just like Ke Xin. Can't I love her as well as her family?"
Dr. Jiang looked into his friend's eyes and felt that something was wrong.
It was not easy to ask about this in front of the two juniors, so I could only say, "Okay, you are right!"
At the same time, he muttered in his heart that Ke Xin cooks delicious food, is cute and sensible, and his old friend must be attracted by this.
Only Song Mo looked at the kindness in the old man's eyes and confirmed his guess.
He didn't want to explain to his young wife, so after washing the dishes, he wanted to leave.
Before leaving, he said to the old man, "Grandpa, I will go through the discharge procedures and move to the guesthouse. Since your illness is no longer serious, I want to take Ke Xin out for a walk. I may not be back for lunch or dinner."
After saying that, he took his young wife and left.
Wen Kexin smiled apologetically at the two old people and was pulled away by the man.
The old man understood that Song Mo meant that his granddaughter no longer cooked for him at noon or at night.
The good impression I had of Song Mo suddenly disappeared.
You little bastard, what do you mean my old man’s illness is healed?
My illness hadn't been cured yet, but he kidnapped my granddaughter.
I'll find a chance to deal with him later!
Of course, the old man kept these words in his heart and would not say them out loud.
Doctor Jiang saw the two young people leave and found that his friend looked unhappy. He asked curiously, "Old Chen, what's going on? I thought you were just talking about recognizing your granddaughter. Why are you so serious and want to go to the countryside? What happened?"
Mr. Chen knew that he couldn't hide the truth from his old friend, so he spoke out his doubts.
Doctor Jiang asked in surprise: "It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
"I have had my suspicions too. Ke Xin has been hanging around me these past two days. Not only does she look like my wife, but she also speaks and behaves like her. You don't understand that feeling..."
Chen Guoqing's eyes moistened as he continued, "...Coincidentally, their hometown is in the same county as mine. I suspect my son is not dead. Even if there is a one percent or one thousandth chance, I would like to go and see. I don't want to tell the two children about this, but after seeing that the other party is not my son, I have decided to recognize Ke Xin as my granddaughter, so that I can feel a little comforted when I am old."
Doctor Jiang then understood what his old friend was thinking and was secretly happy for him.
"Blood ties are amazing. Maybe Ke Xin is really your granddaughter. I hope you can find your biological son this time!"
"Thank you, I've been dreaming about this day!"
Not to mention the two old men chatting in the ward, let alone the young couple running out.
Song Mo said with concern: "Wife, I will take you to dinner first, and then I will go through the hospitalization procedures when I come back. After you settle down, I will take you around the city. I will discuss with the old man in the evening and buy the train tickets in advance."
"OK!"
Wen Kexin has been here for a few days and has been hanging around the hospital and guesthouse.
She knew that this border city was very lively, but she didn't have time to stroll around.
I will be going home soon, so I will buy some local specialties here to bring back.
By the way, this is in the south. I’ll see if there are any fruit trees here and buy some to plant in this space.
In her previous life, she loved eating mangoes, lychees, cherries, durian, plantains and bananas.
Before the space was expanded, she didn’t dare to think about it.
Now, as long as they are planted in black soil, all kinds of southern fruits will soon be available in space.
Thinking about the fact that I will be able to eat fruits freely in the near future, my saliva almost flowed out.
She lowered her voice and said, "Master, there's no rush to buy gifts. I want to buy various fruit trees from the south. If you can't buy seedlings, you can buy fruits. After you eat the fruits, there are fruit cores."
Song Mo was stunned for a moment, and soon remembered the black soil in his young wife's space.
He nodded repeatedly and said, "Wife, I'll go buy it with you."
In this way, after they had eaten and drunk their fill and completed the discharge procedures, they asked where they could buy fruit tree seedlings and fruits.
Passerby A thought for a moment and said, "Of course, to buy fruit trees, we should go to the suburban orchards. There is an orchard outside the west gate called a lychee orchard. It's called a lychee orchard, but actually it has all kinds of fruits. Many fruits are ripe this season. I wonder if they sell fruit tree seedlings."
"Thank you. We'll go check it out now."
The two saw a human-powered tricycle on the side of the road and got on it.
Half an hour later, they arrived outside the west gate of the city.
As soon as I walked out of the west gate, I saw an orchard not far away.
Seeing that there were indeed various fruit trees within the wooden fence, with fruits of various colors hanging on the branches of the fruit trees, the two excitedly came to the entrance of the orchard.
I saw an old man guarding the door.
Wen Kexin said respectfully: "Old man, if we want to go into the orchard to buy saplings or fruits, who should we contact?"
The old man said in a businesslike tone: "Letter of introduction?"
Of course Wen Kexin had a letter of introduction to visit relatives here.
He took out the letter of introduction from his underwear pocket and handed it over.
The old man took it, looked at it and said, "This is a letter of introduction for visiting relatives. What I want is a letter of introduction for buying fruit trees and fruits."
Wen Kexin was embarrassed.
Song Mo immediately took out his officer ID and said politely, "Old man, I was injured on the front line and am now hospitalized in the military hospital. This is my ID and this is my wife. We want to buy some fruit to eat and buy some for our injured comrades. It would be best if we could buy a few fruit trees."
The old man looked at the officer's certificate and shook his head. His tone softened and he said, "I know you are not bad people, but our orchard has a rule that you must have a letter of introduction for buying fruit or fruit trees before you can go in and buy them."
Wen Kexin really wanted to curse, but when she remembered that materials were now nationalized, not the market economy after the reform and opening up, she suddenly became depressed.
"Boss, let's go back to the city and find the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some fruit."
Song Mo had no choice but to nod slightly and say, "Okay!"
Seeing the two were about to leave, the old man kindly reminded them: "Do you have fruit tickets? You need tickets to buy fruit at the supply and marketing cooperative."
Wen Kexi was speechless.
Although Song Mo issued a lot of tickets every month, he gave these tickets to himself yesterday.
She took a quick look and found special tobacco and alcohol coupons, national grain coupons, industrial coupons, pastry coupons, and even bicycle and sewing ticket coupons, but no fruit coupons.
There were so many soldiers guarding the border, and the old leader was injured and sick in the hospital, but they couldn't even eat fruit. I felt depressed and continued to move forward angrily.
Suddenly, she felt her small hand being surrounded by a warm big hand. The man held her and whispered, "Wife, come with me..."
Wen Kexin was pulled away by the man and didn't understand what Song Mo meant.
Song Mo looked back, then pulled his young wife and suddenly walked towards the path next to him.
It was obvious that the path wound along the orchard wall.
Wen Kexin was confused and looked over there. Could it be that Song Mo wanted to steal the fruits from the orchard?
This is absolutely not possible!
Not to mention that he felt guilty about it, but given his status and position, he could not afford to be a thief.
She lowered her voice and asked, "Boss, what do you want to do?"
Song Mo whispered, "Wife, come with me and don't talk!"
Wen Kexin thought to herself that no matter what this man wanted to do, she would be there and would never let him do anything illegal.
Having made up her mind, she didn't dare to say anything else and continued walking forward with the man.
