Chapter 34 34. Meeting My Second Cousin
It was obvious that Shi Liu and Marilyn were the ones who talked most enthusiastically at the beginning, but in the end, it was Qiao Hongjun and another Mr. Hai Luo Mengge who had remained silent the entire time.
Marilyn whispered to Shi Liu, "My fiancé, Mr. Hero Munger, is not only a businessman, but also an excellent writer. His novels are very popular in our country. We came to Lanyu Country this time for business and also to find inspiration. It seems that he is very interested in Mr. Qiao's story."
Pomegranate looked at Mr. Hai Luo Meng with a strange look. It seems that no matter where you are, the bloody plot is very attractive.
Since becoming friends with Marilyn, Shi Liu's subsequent itinerary was not boring at all, which surprised Shi San Ge, who had always been afraid of her. However, in his opinion, it was normal for foreign friends to like his eldest sister since she was so beautiful.
In the eyes of a sister-con, all the excellence of a younger sister is natural. Therefore, Shi Liu's fluent English was not questioned. Instead, Shi Sange felt that this was just how a younger sister should be. To some extent, Shi Sange's chin-up attitude also caused Qiao Hongjun to temporarily abandon his investigation of Shi Liu.
Shi Liu naturally noticed Qiao Hongjun's suspicions, but she was absolutely certain her identity would withstand investigation, so she wasn't afraid at all. As for her English skills, Shi Liu had already found an opportunity to explain them.
Her current Russian teacher is unexpectedly good. He is proficient in four foreign languages: Russian, English, Japanese and French.
She studied Russian with a foreign teacher in the teaching space. English was a required subject for her college entrance exam in her previous life. As for Japanese, to be honest, she taught herself to read Japanese anime in her previous life. Finally, she really didn't know a thing about French. The foreign language teacher, who rarely saw a student willing to learn a foreign language, looked at Shi Liu with a startling look in her eyes. She even lent her her radio, which could receive foreign channels.
After meeting Marilyn today, Shi Liu felt that if she had the chance, she should learn French with her teacher as well. She never knew when it would be useful, and she didn't want to suffer the fate of "regretting not having learned enough when it is time to use it".
By the time they arrived in Yun Province, Shi Liu and Marilyn were reluctant to part. Qiao Hongjun was shocked again. He had served that ancestor a lot along the way, but unfortunately the ancestor still refused to buy it. Fortunately, he had a good chat with Mr. Hai Luo Mengge. If nothing unexpected happened, they would sign several big deals later.
There are now regulations on the time trains stop at stations, so Shi Liu could only try her best to squeeze out with her bag. Fortunately, Brother Shi San was strong and managed to make a small space for her.
As soon as she got off the car, Shi Liu saw a soldier standing next to the jeep and waving at them from a distance: "Third brother, is that the one who is here to pick us up?" Before coming, she sent a telegram.
"Maybe, big sister, let's go there quickly." After saying that, Third Brother Shi carried two large sacks and walked quickly in front.
"Hello, comrades. Are you Shi Jiandang's family?"
"Hello, comrade. I'm his cousin, and this is my third brother. My uncle and his family are busy right now, so we brothers are here on their behalf."
The two sides exchanged identities, and the Shiliu brothers and sisters were sent to the car.
In her memory, her cousin Shi Jiandang was quite kind to her. After Shi Liu sat down, she immediately began to inquire about his condition: "Comrade Qian, I wonder if my cousin has woken up now? We rushed here as soon as we received the telegram, and we are still unclear about the extent of his injuries."
"Comrade Shi, Deputy Company Commander Shi was seriously injured this time, especially his left leg was hit by a bullet. He is likely to suffer from limping in the future, but fortunately he has woken up now." Qian Xiaojun is both happy and sad now. He thought he was going to die, but he woke up again. However, his leg was seriously injured, and Deputy Company Commander Shi might have to leave the army.
Hearing the man was awake, Shi Liu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was alright, that was all that mattered. As for his leg, she had just earned some merit and could afford some medicine. She was spending the money on her cousin, so she wondered if she could get him to pay.
If the little devil behind the system knew what Shi Liu was thinking, he would probably say to her, "You're dreaming!" Fortunately, she was just thinking about it and had no intention of asking the system. After all, she was a "rich" person now.
Shi Jiandang saw that the pain on his cousins' faces had eased. "Daqiu, Shiliu, why are you two here?"
Third Brother Shi put down the sack and said, "The village is busy right now, so Uncle is busy. As for Auntie... she fell ill as soon as she learned about you, so I have no choice but to stay at home to take care of her."
Shi Jiandang's eyes turned red when he heard this: "I made them worry."
Shi Liu was even more concerned about his second cousin's leg: "Second cousin, how is your leg? I heard that soldier say you might become lame."
Shi Jiandang's face was dazed when he thought of his legs. Perhaps he really should leave the place he loved: "..."
Alright, seeing his listless appearance, Shi Liu knew the answer and hurried to check the Yin Yang Pavilion. There were quite a few remedies for lameness there, but unfortunately, most of them were expensive. Suddenly, an ointment called "Black Jade Intermittent Ointment" came into her sight. The more Shi Liu looked at it, the more she thought it would be suitable for her second cousin. 100 merit points was a really high price. Fortunately, there was still some left after her second cousin had used it up.
"Second cousin, this is the Black Jade Fracture Cream. It is said to help regenerate bones or something. Let me try applying it on you." After saying that, he was about to start working despite his second cousin's objection.
"Shi Liu, don't waste such a good thing. The doctor said that the bullet ruptured the surrounding bones when it entered. My leg can't be healed." Shi Jiandang thought that the medicine in Shi Liu's hand was for treating ordinary broken legs.
"Sister, where did you get this medicine? Did you get ripped off?" The medicine sounded expensive, and Shi San Ge felt that the person selling it was really heartless.
"An old man sold it to me while I was waiting for the train at the train station. He charged me 25 yuan." Shi Liu turned to Shi Jiandang and said, "Second cousin, you must take the medicine, otherwise my money will be wasted."
Now not only did Shi Sange feel that Shi Liu was cheated, but even Shi Jiandang felt that his cousin was cheated. However, even if she was cheated, it was for his own sake. He turned around and gave his cousin 25 yuan to make up for it: "Daqiu, please apply the ointment to me."
Shi Liu curled her lips and said, "I tell you, I knew this ointment was good stuff as soon as I smelled it. I wasn't cheated." There is no such thing as fake goods in Yin Yang Pavilion. Anyone who dares to buy fake goods will be fined a large amount of merit points.
Brother Shi San and his friend were originally convinced that their eldest sister had been cheated, but when they opened the lid and were greeted by the fragrant smell of medicine, they knew it was good stuff.
