Chapter 147
Zhang Chaoyang recovered very quickly. The doctor said that the stitches could be removed in two days.
Xu Di was also happy that he was able to recover well without any sequelae, which was worth being happy about.
"Wife, Lao Hei and the others will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. We want to get together. Can you help us prepare some food?"
"No problem, but you can't drink."
"If we don't drink, five people can't make a complete person, what's the point of drinking!"
Zhang Chaoyang was in a low mood. The army always changes, and veterans retire every year, soldiers are injured and leave every year, and comrades never come back every year...
Xu Di has never been a soldier, so he may not be able to understand their deep comradeship.
However, she knew that soldiers were their greatest protectors and the basis for their safe lives.
"Okay, I'll go to the state-owned restaurant tomorrow and get you some delicious dishes.
The stove rented by the cafeteria is fine for making soup, but it is not enough for making a few more dishes. ”
"It's too painful to cook in the kitchen in such a hot day at a state-owned restaurant.
My wife has worked very hard, I can’t let you suffer any more. ”
It’s not like Zhang Chaoyang had never been to a military canteen before. With so many stoves firing at the same time, the soldiers were sweating profusely.
His wife doesn't have the physical strength of a cook, and the temperature in the hospital cafeteria is not much better than that in the army's kitchen.
"Chaoyang, why are you so curious when you talk now? When Aunt Wang mentioned you, she used the word taciturn."
"Wife, isn't this dividing people?"
"Okay, I won't argue with you anymore. I'll go to the nearby state-owned restaurant to see what dishes they have."
Xu Di felt happy, knowing that someone cared about her and would not take it for granted that her efforts were invisible. She was in a good mood.
Zhang Chaoyang has no problem walking now. As long as he doesn't put any effort on his fractured leg, he can walk slowly.
Now that Xu Di has gone out, there is no need to worry about him.
Xu Di has been here for more than ten days. Judging from Zhang Chaoyang's recovery, they will be able to be discharged from the hospital and go home in less than a month.
She wanted to buy some seafood and stock it up in her space.
Xu Di plans to go back to the fishing village he visited before. The lady I met last time kept her seafood very clean.
Xu Di arrived at the nearby fishing village with familiarity. It was noon and the old lady was at home.
Xu Di didn't say much and just told his auntie what seafood he wanted to buy, and she said they had all of them.
Dried squid, dried sea cucumber, abalone, sea fish, sea fish, kelp...
All in all she weighed was over 100 pounds, so Xu Di asked someone to take her to the bus stop, which was not far away.
Take a bus here, every half an hour. When Xu Di arrived, he looked at the departure schedule and saw that the previous bus had just left.
This way, people waiting for the bus won't come so early, and she can hide things in the space.
The old lady and her daughter-in-law each carried a basket and followed Xu Di. Xu Di also carried a basket filled with fresh seafood that he planned to eat in the evening.
When they arrived at the bus stop, Xu Di paid the fare. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law took the money and ran home immediately, fearing that they would lose the money if they stayed outside for too long.
Xu Di looked around and saw no one around, so he moved the basket behind the bushes on the side of the road.
After confirming again that there was no one around, he smuggled the seafood in the basket into the space, leaving the basket outside.
Xu Di was afraid that there might be someone she hadn't noticed in the place she had overlooked.
It was also quite scary when the two baskets suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
She put the things into the space first and then sorted them out when she had the chance. Xu Di stacked the two baskets together and secretly smuggled one into the space.
Alas, is it easy for her? Take great pains to treat stuttering.
Back in the ward, Xu Di had already found an opportunity to deal with the bamboo basket. I only brought back fresh seafood and had a seafood dinner in the evening.
The next day, Xu Di went to the state-owned restaurant and bought four dishes, which were quite filling.
Xu Di smuggled a chicken and made the boiled chicken taught by Master Zhu.
The chicken soup was mixed with various vegetables and fish balls provided by Chef Zhu, and it tasted great.
"Master Zhu, there's fish ball soup and a bowl of chicken left in the pot for you. I'll take these back first."
"Okay, thank you Comrade Xu."
Master Zhu was not polite to Xu Di. The chicken soup she cooked tasted good.
"Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work!"
Ding Hui and his friends were already there. In the ward, a large table made up of several small tables was placed on it, and the dishes bought by Xu Di were already on it.
"Here, this is the cooking skill I learned from the chef in the cafeteria. It's boiled chicken and vegetable fish ball soup. Come and eat it quickly."
Xu Di put the things away and asked them to eat quickly.
"Wife, you eat too."
"I'm done eating in the kitchen, you guys eat while I go to the grocery store to buy some food."
Xu Di left the space to Zhang Chaoyang and his comrades, and went out on the pretext of something.
"Deputy Colonel, you should take good care of your injuries and try to stay in the army for a few more years."
Lao Hei lost an arm and is about to retire. He has worn this military uniform for five years and even his dreams are filled with the sound of military bugles.
“Don’t worry, your deputy regiment commander will not leave the army easily.
He wants to take your share and stay here. ”
Kong Wenming, who rushed over from the army, knew that Zhang Chaoyang and his men had made a great contribution this time.
"Deputy Captain, I am leaving the front line, and I am reluctant to leave."
Ding Hui's injury this time was not light. After he recovers, he will not be able to do high-intensity training.
He was reluctant to leave the front line, but he was lucky that he was still in the army and had not left.
"Lao Hei, when you go back, don't try to handle anything on your own."
Zhang Chaoyang knew that this man from Northeast China would just swallow his suffering.
"I've got that in mind, Deputy Commander."
Lao Hei picked up the soup bowl with his right hand and said, "We can't drink now, so let's finish this bowl of soup. If you have a chance in the future, I'll treat you to a drink when you go to the Northeast."
“Done!”
“Done!”
“Done!”
…
A bowl of soup brings out a different feeling.
A few men ate vegetables, drank soup, and talked about what had happened before.
"Lao Kong, let's sing a song."
Zhang Chaoyang didn't want everyone to be too sad. From the moment he put on the military uniform, his life no longer belonged to them.
Every time I go out, I am determined not to come back, and a suicide note is not written just for fun.
This time, although they were in danger, fortunately, they all came back alive.
"Okay, let's close the door tightly, it shouldn't have much of an impact."
"It's okay. There's nothing on this floor that needs resting."
Shitou has walked around everywhere and is familiar with everyone living on this floor.
"The sunset is in the west and the clouds are flying
Soldiers return to camp after target practice
The red flag is flying in the wind and the colorful clouds are reflected
Happy singing filled the sky
..."
Kong Wenming started the show with a song called "Returning from Target Practice", which aroused everyone's emotions.
"We crossed the Yalu River with high spirits and vigor
To protect peace and defend the motherland is to protect our hometown
Good sons and daughters of China, unite as one
..."
"The East is Red and the Sun is Rising
China has a Mao Zedong
He seeks happiness for the people
Hu Er Hi Yo
He is the people's savior
He seeks happiness for the people
..."
…
The entire ward became a military song performance.
The six men initially thought about keeping their voices down so as not to disturb others.
After a while, he couldn't control his voice anymore, his throat was hoarse, and he roared with great pleasure.
The head nurse came over and listened for a while, and roughly understood what was going on.
There were no patients who needed rest on this floor, so she turned a blind eye.
Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are sad. Several grown men started to cry as they sang.
After this separation, I don’t know when we will meet again.
In the end, Zhang Chaoyang filled everyone's bowl with soup.
"You will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, whether you are retiring, transferring, or recovering from injuries. We are all lucky. This military uniform brings us a lot.
No matter where we go, we must remember that we are a soldier! ”
The six soup bowls came together, and everyone raised their heads and drank it up!
