Yu Sui was shocked.
What do you mean something went wrong?
I'm a little afraid to ask.
Yu Sui stared at Sister Yan Zi with her mouth open, waiting for what would happen next.
Sister Yan Zi scratched her forehead in embarrassment and said, "Don't get me wrong, it's not a big deal... I'm just... I'm in the hospital right now. Xia Lin will help keep me company for a while. It's okay, it's okay. Go out to the living room later. Don't tell anyone about this. This matter... is not suitable to be discussed anyway. Let's not talk about it. Hey, Yu Sui, where are the chili peppers in your house? I need some."
For the last sentence, Sister Yan Zi deliberately raised her voice, then took some chili peppers and walked out.
Yu Sui sighed, thinking that since Sister Yan Zi said it was okay, it was probably really okay, so he said nothing more and entertained his comrades wholeheartedly.
Apart from this incident, everyone enjoyed the meal very much. Yu Sui also discovered that Yu Qi was a social bull. Although Xia Lin, the host, was not there, the atmosphere was particularly good because Yu Qi kept asking questions and saying all kinds of words praising the troops.
We had dinner until eight o'clock before leaving.
After Yu Sui finished everything in the kitchen, she urged Yu Qi to go to the small room to rest. At about ten o'clock, Xia Lin came back in a hurry.
Fortunately, we are now at the battalion level, and the lights in the rooms assigned here are not turned off.
The light from the living room illuminated his exhausted face and furrowed brows. He shook the dust off his clothes and asked, "Wife, I'm back. Is there anything to eat at home? Can I have something to eat?"
"Yes. It's reserved for you." Yu Sui didn't ask anything and brought out the food reserved for him.
Xia Linbei ate in silence, washed the dishes in silence, and then went into the room.
Yu Sui had tidied up her house nicely. The bed cloth, curtains, and other items were all a light blue. It looked cooler than other people's houses, but also cleaner and tidier than others.
Xia Lin didn't sit on the kang, but sat on the rattan chair in the corner, propping up his head and silently looking at Yu Sui who was leaning on the kang reading a book.
Yu Sui glanced at him, said nothing, and continued reading.
Xia Lin: "Wife, can you pour me a glass of water?"
"Okay, I'll go pour it." Yu Sui poured it for him, handed it to him, and went back to the kang to continue reading.
After about ten minutes, Xia Lin said, "Wife, I don't want to wash my feet today. I'll just sleep like this, okay?"
"Okay." Yu Sui kept her eyes on the book.
Xia Linbei raised his voice a little: "I'm serious."
Yu Sui put down the book in her hand and said, "I'm serious. If you feel tired, just do what you want. If you don't want to wash, don't wash. It won't kill you if you don't wash it for a day. At most, I'll wash the sheets and quilt tomorrow. It's really no big deal."
Xia Lin curled his lips and said, "Then I'd better go wash it."
He staggered out like a drunk, and came back ten minutes later, fell on the kang, and pulled Yu Sui, who was still reading, over to him: "Stop reading, look at me."
"Okay." Yu Sui lay down beside him, cupping his face, and deliberately exclaimed, "Whose man is this? Wow, he's so handsome in person, much more beautiful than in books!"
Xia Linbei laughed.
Still smiling with white teeth showing.
Then, he pulled Yu Sui into his arms and hugged her tightly.
This kind of hug, this tightness, does not contain a trace of lust. It feels like at this moment, he wants to gain energy to comfort himself by hugging his wife.
Yu Sui also responded to him, patting his back gently: "If you feel tired, don't think about anything, get a good sleep, tomorrow is the day of the day. I'll always be here."
Xia Linbei rubbed Yu Sui's hair with his chin and said softly:
"Many times I've thought that one really can't make a single misstep in life. Especially when it comes to marrying a wife, it's so important. I'm so lucky to have you. Just look at today. I was actually worried that when I came back, you'd scold me. You clearly said you were going to treat people to dinner, so why didn't you come home?
There were guests at home and a lot of things to do, so why did you busy yourself with other people's business? But you didn't scold me, and even left me some food. You are obviously very clean and won't let me get into bed without washing my feet, but you didn't scold me, and even said that at most you would wash the sheets tomorrow. You are so nice, my wife.
Yu Sui: "Ah, is it because I didn't scold you?"
"It's not that you didn't scold me, but the moment I think of you, I don't feel tired anymore."
"Hmm? Not tired anymore? Then go wash the kitchen again and mop the floor again?"
"Okay, let me get some good sleep today and I'll wash it tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go to sleep." Yu Sui took the initiative to pull the quilt over Xia Lin.
Xia Lin was lying on his side on the kang, the light casting a shadow on his long eyelashes, covering his eyes and making his gaze particularly deep. "Wife, don't you want to know what I did today?"
Yu Sui: "I thought about it. But I think if you could say it, you would definitely say it. If you didn't say it, it's just not appropriate to say it."
"Alas!" Xia Lin sighed heavily. "Originally, it's not appropriate to tell you. But if I don't tell you, I feel uncomfortable. I better tell you that Han Duomi has overdosed on medicine."
Yu Sui was shocked by this and immediately sat up: "Hey, what's going on now?"
Xia Linbei pulled her down, continued to hug her, and spoke carefully:
"He's lucky, after all. Didn't you tell me to invite a few close comrades? After I invited everyone I needed to, I suddenly thought, we usually trouble Han Duomi quite a bit, and even though we're not in the same battalion, I might as well ask him to come along.
As a result, I found Captain Ding's house and heard Ding Lili and her mother arguing in the house. I didn't dare to go in. I happened to meet Captain Ding's communicator at the door and asked if Han Duomi was at home. The communicator whispered that because he didn't come back yesterday, there was a quarrel inside.
When I heard that, I wanted to persuade him, so I thought about finding him and inviting him to my house for dinner. I searched around a few of his favorite places, but couldn't find him. I asked the gate guard, but he said he hadn't seen him drive out. I was about to give up, but as I was about to go home, I passed behind their convoy and saw Han Duomi's car. It was still there.
I don't know why, but I wanted to go over and take a look, and then I saw him leaning against the window, sleeping. I knocked on the window, but he didn't answer, and I became very suspicious. Hey, I've actually been feeling down lately. The correspondent said he hadn't come home all night, so how could he have slept in the car all night and still not wake up?
I slammed the door, but he didn't react. I panicked, called for help, and managed to pry the door open. Inside, there was a sour, foul smell and a medicine bottle. The name on it was a bit awkward, but I saw it said something like "Do not overdose." I didn't care anymore and drove straight to the hospital. Oh, I was so worried! A life was at stake!
