When Gu Guizhi brought the lunch box to Qi Huilan, Qi Huilan had just finished giving an injection to a patient.
"Aunt Qi, this is the meal I bought for you." Gu Guizhi handed the lunch box to Qi Huilan.
When Qi Huilan came back just now, several patients came in. She didn't even have time to drink a sip of water before she started busying herself. Now, smelling the fragrance wafting from the lunch box, she felt even hungrier.
"No, I'm not hungry."
When she thought that Gu Guizhi was here to snatch her daughter away, she felt unhappy and didn't want to eat the food in the lunch box at all.
"Aunt Qi, this lunch box is borrowed from a state-owned restaurant. Please return it to us after you finish eating." After saying this, Gu Guizhi nodded at her, turned and left.
Luo Xiangxiang came out of the ward and saw this scene. She looked in the direction where Gu Guizhi left and asked curiously, "Huilan, who is that person?"
Qi Huilan opened her mouth and said in a dissembling way, "A friend's son bought me some food and sent it over."
Luo Xiangxiang looked at the lunch box in her hand, helped her open it, and exclaimed: "White flour dumplings, Huilan, your friend's son is so generous."
Qi Huilan didn't expect Gu Guizhi to be so generous. A serving of dumplings with meat cost 1.2 yuan, and a vegetarian one cost 80 cents. In addition to money, she also needed food coupons.
"Why don't you eat a few?" Qi Huilan moved the dumplings towards Luo Xiangxiang.
Luo Xiangxiang shook her head. She had already eaten the buns that Qi Mengmeng sent her today, so how could she eat other people’s dumplings?
Even if you have a good relationship with someone, you can't take advantage of them like this.
"Okay, you've been busy since you came back. Now that you're not busy, eat quickly. I'll go get you a glass of water."
Luo Xiangxiang picked up Qi Huilan's cup and went out.
The other nurses glanced over here vaguely. The dumplings from the state-owned restaurant tasted so delicious.
Someone rolled his eyes and said, "It's just white flour dumplings. Why are you showing off here?"
Qi Huilan sighed and started eating the dumplings. She had already received them, so she couldn't just take them back. Besides, the lunch box belonged to a state-owned restaurant, and she had to return it after work.
But she didn't finish them all. She put half of them into the lunch box she brought with her. The dumplings were filled with meat and the portions were big. She was full after eating half of them. After she finished eating, she washed the lunch box from the state-owned restaurant.
Luo Xiangxiang put the water cup on her table and touched her with her arm: "Tell me, who is that boy? He is so good-looking and bought you dumplings. Is he Meng Meng's target?"
Qi Huilan looked around first, and when she saw that no one was paying attention to her, she glared at her and lowered her voice: "Don't make random guesses."
Luo Xiangxiang knew from her expression that she had guessed correctly, so she lowered her voice a little: "Did I really guess right? This boy is not bad, you have a good eye this time."
Qi Huilan and Luo Xiangxiang have known each other for many years. She smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I have bad taste. This is the engagement that Mengmeng's biological father arranged for her. If he hadn't come to find me, I would have forgotten about it long ago."
As for the fact that Qi Mengmeng was forced to go to the countryside by Ge Wenling, she did not say anything, for fear that others would find out and cause trouble.
Luo Xiangxiang curled her lips and said, "At least he did something good."
Then Luo Xiangxiang asked, "Hui Lan, are you still in touch with Meng Meng's biological father?"
"No." Qi Huilan shook her head and didn't want to talk about it any more. Just then a patient came over, so both of them went about their business.
Before leaving, Luo Xiangxiang remembered that Qi Mengmeng came to deliver lunch at noon, and told Qi Huilan about it.
Qi Huilan was a little confused. Why did Qi Mengmeng think of bringing her food? Did something happen?
She was worried about something, so when it was time to get off work, she packed up her things and left.
When she got home, the Ge family father and daughter had not returned yet. Qi Mengmeng was stunned for a moment when she saw her rushing in panting.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Qi Huilan first looked Qi Mengmeng over, and then poured herself some water with trembling hands.
Qi Mengmeng quickly took the thermos and poured her a glass of water. She felt the temperature of the ceramic jar before handing it to her: "Mom, it's not hot anymore."
Qi Huilan drank the water in one breath and sat on the stool. Only then did she feel better.
"Mengmeng, I heard from your Aunt Luo that you went to the hospital to see me today. Is there something wrong?"
Qi Mengmeng paused for a moment, then said with a fearless expression: "Mom, last night, I went to the small yard, dug out the things, and hid them somewhere else."
"But don't worry, mom. I'm just moving it to a new place. I'll give it to you when you need it."
"How can you do it by yourself?" Qi Huilan breathed a sigh of relief and then took a deep breath. She stood up and wanted to pat Qi Mengmeng twice, but she was reluctant, so she just patted her shoulder lightly.
"Those things are very heavy. If you wanted to dig them out, you could have just dug them out when we went there yesterday. Why did you have to go all the way here by yourself? It's so tiring."
Qi Mengmeng listened to Qi Huilan's scolding for a long time before she reacted. She asked in surprise, "Mom, you don't blame me?"
"Of course I blame you! Next time you do something like this, ask me to help you. If someone finds out, you can still run away. Look at you, kid." There was nothing but heartache in Qi Huilan's eyes.
Qi Mengmeng couldn't explain the feeling in her heart. She felt a little sour and depressed. Her voice was a little hoarse. "Mom, aren't you afraid that I will hide those things from you?"
Qi Huilan gave her a reproachful look and said, "Those things were originally meant for you."
Qi Mengmeng was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. She wanted to say, "Your daughter is gone, I'm just a ghost from outside."
But her throat seemed to be blocked by cotton, and she couldn't say anything. Finally, she fell into Qi Huilan's arms and said, "Mom, I will always treat you well in the future."
Qi Huilan touched her hair and said, "You are my only daughter. Everything is yours. I ignored you before, but I won't do that anymore. I will treat you well in the future."
Qi Mengmeng's personality has of course changed a lot since she traveled through time. Qi Huilan of course noticed it, but she just thought it was because of her injury, so she was extra nice to her.
Qi Mengmeng seemed to have accepted everything here before, but she was always angry in her heart. Today, Qi Huilan's words made her feel the reality. She felt that this was not a book, but her life and her mother.
"Mom, you are my biological mother, and I will treat you well in the future." After Qi Mengmeng said this, she felt a lot more relaxed and her mind was much clearer.
Qi Huilan heard some noise outside and quickly said, "Mengmeng, Gu Guizhi is here. You two can go meet him at noon tomorrow."
What? Qi Mengmeng was shocked. It came so quickly?
Qi Huilan patted her hands and continued, "We'll meet tomorrow. If you think it's okay, get the marriage certificate as soon as possible."
