Chapter 104
Pang Sihai asked about the condition of the house. Although he knew that Weisheng had only cleaned it up "roughly", he still asked Weisheng how much money he had spent and whether he had any money left.
Weisheng smiled and said that she had sold some unused medicinal herbs, and Aunt Pang left her a lot of money when she left, so the money was enough for her.
But Pang Sihai still felt it wasn't enough. But there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he just kept it in mind.
Weisheng asked Pang Sihai to stay in the inner room, but Pang Sihai thought better of it and decided to stay on the Luohan bed in the outer room. Weisheng saw this and made the bedding for him first, then went to the enclosed workbench to stew the medicinal food and soak the Chinese herbs.
A previous full-body checkup had indeed revealed blood clots in the brain. However, the wound hadn't healed yet, so I didn't dare prescribe blood-activating and blood-dissolving medicine. Now that the wound was healing well, Weisheng decided to give Pang Sihai some herbal soups in addition to the medicated diet, along with acupuncture treatment. This would not only speed up his recovery but also help replenish some of his body's deficiencies.
Following Weisheng's instructions, Pang Sihai went to the inner room and changed into a vest and shorts. After coming out, he slowly walked to the small bar, smiling at Weisheng, who was busy at the counter.
The unique aroma of medicinal food was already wafting through the room, with a slightly bitter taste mixed in with the rich aroma of meat. It wasn't particularly pleasant, but it brought a sense of security and comfort.
However, when his eyes fell on the pot of herbs, Pang Sihai tasted bitterness in his mouth before he even started drinking.
Weisheng took the time to turn around and glance at him, then lowered his head to continue adding herbs to the basin. "I'm almost done. Go lie down first."
"Okay, take your time. I'm not in a hurry."
A few minutes later, lying on the Arhat bed, Pang Sihai asked Weisheng, who was giving him acupuncture, "When the college entrance examination resumes, will you apply to medical school?"
"No!" Weisheng shook his head and said firmly: "I need to learn something I don't know."
Pang Sihai: “…That’s good too.”
Pang Sihai was most afraid of stretching the wound, so after the acupuncture, Weisheng asked him to lie down and not move.
Because I was discharged from the hospital today, I got home a little late. By the time the medicinal food was ready, it was almost one o'clock. Seeing that it was getting late, Weisheng quickly started to prepare lunch.
Fortunately, the liquefied gas stove she took out had two burners, one for making medicinal food, and the other for other cooking.
When the medicinal food is cooked, the steamed buns on the other stove are also ready.
Weisheng picked up the steamed buns and put the washed vegetables into the pot of hot water to blanch them.
I made a blanched vegetable dish using the same method as for choy sum. Then, I took out the lean meat sauce I had fried in advance and poured it into a small dish. A meat and vegetable lunch was ready.
The two of them had lunch at the square table opposite the bed. Perhaps because they were in a better mood and had a better appetite after leaving the hospital, Pang Sihai ate four steamed buns in one go.
Although the steamed buns Weisheng makes are all small ones, eating four of them at once really shows a good appetite.
After dinner, Weisheng put the soaked herbs on the stove, and the aroma of food that originally filled the house was instantly replaced by the smell of Chinese medicine.
However, the people in the room started to smell from nothing to something, and after smelling it so many times, they couldn't smell anything anymore.
Dinner was also very simple, mainly because the house was too small and there was no range hood, so Weisheng tried to choose dishes that would not overcook the pot when cooking.
Fortunately, Pang Sihai doesn’t care about what he eats. As long as it is cooked well and can fill him up, he will eat anything.
The day after being discharged from the hospital, Weisheng asked Pang Sihai if he wanted to write a letter to his family. Pang Sihai glanced at Weisheng who asked this question and couldn't help but think of the words his mother said when she left. In the end, he shook his head and said to Weisheng who had his back to him: "No need. If we tell them that we are discharged from the hospital, they will have to ask where we live after being discharged and where we got the house. It is better to let them think that we have been in the hospital all the time."
Weisheng nodded indifferently and started talking about the Spring Festival again.
This year's Spring Festival is on February 11th, and it is only mid-January now. If nothing unexpected happens, she should be able to return to the village to celebrate the New Year. I just don't know how Pang Sihai will spend the New Year.
Pang Sihai: "After the stitches are removed, I'll rest for two more days. I'll report to work before the New Year to avoid delaying too long and causing any problems."
Don't let anything that's already been done get into any trouble.
"Then I'll wait until you've settled everything here before returning to the village."
Hearing this, Pang Sihai thought for a moment and advised Weisheng, "You'll be celebrating the New Year alone if you go back to the village anyway, so why don't you stay in the provincial capital this year? I heard the provincial capital is very lively during the New Year, so I'll take you on a nice stroll there."
Although Weisheng has many godmothers, he has rejected everyone during the Chinese New Year in recent years and stayed alone at home to celebrate the New Year.
It was because of this that Pang Sihai wanted Weisheng to stay in the provincial capital for the New Year.
Weisheng pursed his lips and looked up at the ceiling. He hadn't decided whether to stay in the provincial capital to spend the New Year with Pang Sihai, who was destined to never return home. He just said, "Let's talk about it later."
After the topic came to an end, Pang Sihai thought of something else, but after looking at Weisheng and then at himself, he didn't say anything.
You asked Pang Sihai what he thought of?
The luggage he left in the school dormitory, the books issued by the school, and the living allowance he had not received this month.
The school was already on winter vacation, so the easiest way to get the things back was to wait until school started. It was a difficult way, and Pang Sihai didn't want to trouble his little sister.
However, he cannot get that money for the time being, but he can still receive a salary before the Spring Festival.
After taking a look at Weisheng standing by the window, Pang Sihai started thinking about what to buy for his little sister with his first month's salary.
…
Now that Pang Sihai has been discharged from the hospital, Weisheng can no longer rely on space for everything as before.
Fortunately, their room was not far from the water room and public toilet, making it convenient for both getting water and going to the public toilet. However, compared to Weisheng, Pang Sihai, who was injured, took a long time to go to the public toilet each time.
Move forward step by step, and then move back step by step.
That night, Weisheng came back from the water room to fetch some water, checked on Pang Sihai's condition, and then went back to the inner room to rest.
The sound insulation of the tube-shaped building is not very good. If the neighbors make some noise, the neighbors in the entire building can hear it.
Today was also Weisheng's first time living in a tube-shaped building, so she and Pang Sihai in the outer room were both unable to sleep because of the noise from a passionate couple upstairs.
Weisheng got out of bed lightly, and seeing that the door was locked, he immediately returned to his space.
Weisheng returned to the space and had a good sleep, but Pang Sihai was forced to listen to lovemaking all night long.
The next day, Weisheng pretended not to hear anything and came out of the inner room. He went to the bathroom to wash up first as he did the day before, and then went to the small bar to prepare medicinal food and decoct medicine for Pang Sihai.
For breakfast, Weisheng had plain noodles, the kind Weisheng bought. After dinner, he gave Pang Sihai another acupuncture treatment and then went out to buy groceries.
Pang Sihai, who was a little embarrassed when he saw Weisheng early in the morning, saw that Weisheng looked like he didn't hear anything, and for some reason he thought of the embarrassing incident that year when he was stripped naked and thrown into a tractor truck.
At that time, his little sister seemed to be in the same state.
Thinking about the noise upstairs last night... Pang Sihai was sure his little sister must have heard it too. So the question was, did she really not know back then, or...
╮(╯▽╰)╭
He did hear it, and felt somewhat embarrassed, so from that night on, Weisheng lit some 'calming incense' at home to ensure Pang Sihai would be well all night long.
Then, putting aside this embarrassing episode, Weisheng and Pang Sihai lived a pretty comfortable life.
Under Weisheng's extremely careful care, Pang Sihai's health is getting better and better.
Weisheng would check Pang Sihai's wound every day, and when it was almost time to remove the stitches, he would do it directly.
After the stitches were removed and the patient was covered with gauze for two days, Weisheng officially announced that the abdominal injury was no longer serious.
He started taking medicinal food every one or two days, and stopped taking Chinese medicine completely. However, Pang Sihai still needed to continue acupuncture for the blood clots on his head.
On the third day after his abdominal wound had its stitches removed, Pang Sihai went to school to retrieve his belongings. On the fourth day, Sunday, he wanted to take Weisheng out for a walk, but Weisheng declined because he had to take care of her period.
On the fifth day, Pang Sihai reported to the unit.
Weisheng had nothing to do, so he made some dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut for dinner.
It was the first time for Pang Sihai to eat sauerkraut stuffing, and he asked why the stuffing was sour and what kind of vegetable this sauerkraut was.
By the way, on his first day at work, Pang Sihai had lunch with his colleagues in the cafeteria. But after lunch, he also ordered a portion of stir-fried pork for Weisheng and brought it back in a lunch box.
In other words, he ate outside at noon, but still went back home.
During the Spring Festival, Weisheng finally stayed in Shangning and spent the year with Pang Sihai just the two of them.
After the Lunar New Year, Pang Sihai went back to work, while Weisheng went to the train station to buy a ticket back to Liquan City. On her way back, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of things, intending to give them as souvenirs to her godmothers.
When Pang Sihai got home from work and heard that Weisheng had bought a train ticket for the next day, he was so reluctant to let him go. He got up early and asked for a day off from work, then went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things. Then he rode a borrowed bicycle to take Weisheng to the train station.
When they arrived at the train station, Pang Sihai still felt uneasy, so he found a way to buy a train ticket and got on the train with Weisheng.
After arriving in Liquan City, Pang Sihai first took Weisheng to the bus station. After watching everyone get on the last bus of the day back to Songbei Town, he felt at ease to take the midnight train back to Shangning.
It was the one that Weisheng took when he went to Shangning.

Riding a borrowed bicycle back to the tube-shaped building in the middle of the night, Pang Sihai didn't feel tired, but he felt empty in his heart, and his home was cold and deserted.
After taking a look around the inner room where Weisheng had lived for a month or so, Pang Sihai rolled up the bedding Weisheng had slept on and placed it against the bed, then walked to the Luohan bed outside.
He first stared at the ceiling in a daze, and when he heard the same sound coming from upstairs again, Pang Sihai turned over.
At the same time, I thought that although the couple upstairs always disturbed the sleep of their neighbors, it only happened once a month... I could just bear with it.
Pang Sihai didn't sleep well that night. He thought it was because of the noise upstairs. But for a long time afterwards, Pang Sihai couldn't sleep well, and the couple upstairs would quarrel every few days.
Until this moment, Pang Sihai had not thought that he slept well before because Weisheng lit the "calming incense" every night.
By the way, he was particularly glad that when Weisheng was here, the couple upstairs understood what "moderation" was.
…
Meanwhile, when Weisheng returned to Songbei Town, the sun hadn't set yet. She strolled back to the village, first taking out the things she had brought back from her space, and then went to Ganma Pang's house with the things she and Pang Sihai had bought for her family.
Just as Pang Sihai had instructed, he stayed in the hospital until he recovered, while she stayed in the guesthouse for a month or so. Now that Pang Sihai had recovered and was working, she had retired and returned to the village.
When they heard that Pang Sihai had already started working in the provincial capital, Pang Ganma and her family were very happy, but they also felt sorry for the hardships Weisheng had endured in the past few months.
Weisheng just said it was okay, gave a brief explanation and went home.
My house isn't very dusty, but it's not clean either. I first cleaned the entire house with an electrostatic duster I bought online, then wiped it down inside and out with a rag.
During this period, Pang Shanchuan was sent by Pang Ganma to clean the water tank for Weisheng.
As the weather got warmer, Weisheng asked Pang Shanchuan to move the water tank from the house to under the awning.
The next day, Weisheng first went to the old village chief's house, and then went to each of his godmother's houses to sit and chat, give gifts, and have meals.
Compared to Pang Sihai, who was still adapting to living alone in the provincial capital, Weisheng's village primary school cram school officially started on the sixth day after returning to the village.
