Yun Jin hadn't been sleeping well that night. Hearing the noise, she opened her eyes and saw the person returning, clutching their stomach, looking weak and unsteady on their feet. She asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." That's a lie.
Yun Jin didn't seem to be alright: "If you're alright, why are you clutching your stomach? And why are you all sweaty? Are you feeling unwell? Should you...?"
Before he could finish speaking, He Tingchuan stormed out of the door.
Yun Jin was completely wide awake. She got up and looked at He Tingchuan, who had returned from the toilet not long after, and Commander Gao, who was about to go to the toilet. The tough men had turned into weak, sick cats.
They were all pale and looked utterly hopeless, making Yun Jin feel too embarrassed to laugh at them.
Without hesitation, I told Sister-in-law Gao and sent the person to the health center for a checkup.
At this time, without a private car, you can only go out on foot or by bicycle.
Sister-in-law Gao pushed her old bicycle over, but Yun Jin, who was heavily pregnant, couldn't ride it easily, so she asked He Tingchuan to take her to the clinic.
Yun Jin asked, "How about I ride the bike? Actually, my belly isn't that big."
He Tingchuan didn't try to dissuade her, but let her try riding it herself.
Yun Jin looked at the old bicycle that someone with legs longer than hers was riding, which was completely unsuitable for someone her height. She sat obediently in the back and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Just bear with it. We'll go to the hospital. It must be an upset stomach."
Despite his stomachache, He Tingchuan rode his bicycle very steadily.
I endured the stomach pain and went to the hospital, but the clinic was closed and didn't see any patients at night.
They could only go to the city hospital.
This journey is quite long.
Yun Jin shone a flashlight to light the way, while He Tingchuan rode his bicycle with his back hunched over, experiencing waves of abdominal cramps—a pain that even the most hardened man, unafraid of pain, could not endure.
Thinking of his pregnant wife sitting behind him, He Tingchuan gritted his teeth and had to persevere.
Just when he was on the verge of death, he finally arrived at the hospital.
Commander Gao was being supported by his wife, who was clutching his stomach. He was walking unsteadily, as if he was about to faint at any moment.
Yun Jin leaned over to He Tingchuan's shoulder and said, "Come on, rest your head on my shoulder."
He Tingchuan: "..."
Yun Jin urged, "Hurry up, what's there to hesitate about? I'm your wife, not an outsider. I'm comfortable with it, so why are you embarrassed? Who knows, if you get a stomachache, it might be related to me!"
He Tingchuan raised an eyebrow: "You poisoned it?"
Yun Jin glared at her: "Can't you think of me in a good way? I made that plate of stir-fried green beans. It seems that if the green beans are not cooked thoroughly, they can cause poisoning. I don't think I cooked them too well."
In the end, Yun Jin felt guilty.
He Tingchuan was also feeling guilty. While he was in the restroom, he repeatedly told Commander Gao that it definitely had nothing to do with his wife. She was just an assistant, so how could he blame her?
Now it's all right.
He was slapped in the face by his own wife.
Who else could be the culprit besides her?
Soon, He Tingchuan was helplessly supported by Yun Jin. How could a tall, long-legged man like him really put his weight on her?
This wasn't to make her feel better; He Tingchuan pretended to be on top of her, and that she was helping him to see a doctor.
Commander Gao has already made his decision; the patient needs to take medication and receive intravenous fluids.
The doctor diagnosed it as acute gastroenteritis, or simply food poisoning.
Sister-in-law Gao blamed herself: "It must be because the food wasn't cooked properly, otherwise how could I have gotten an upset stomach? I cooked all the dishes today."
He Tingchuan and Yun Jin looked at each other, exchanged a guilty glance, and Yun Jin raised her hand.
"Well, sister-in-law, it might not be your fault. Have you forgotten that I made that stir-fried green beans?"
Commander Gao glanced at He Tingchuan and said, "I knew my wife's cooking wouldn't be that bad. The stir-fried green beans were burnt on the outside but still raw on the inside."
This isn't because I'm thinking about my wife's cooking skills; I can't possibly complain about them.
Eat, force yourself to eat.
Now look what happened, he's ended up in the hospital from eating too much food.
He Tingchuan: "..."
Sister-in-law Gao: "......"
Yun Jin was about to sincerely apologize when she heard Li Aiguo groan, "My stomach hurts so much! I've had diarrhea so many times. Please take a look at me, is this going to kill me?"
Well, here comes another victim.
When Li Aiguo and He Tingchuan lined up to get IV drips, Li Aiguo realized that it was probably related to the plate of dry-fried green beans that were burnt on the outside and raw on the inside that night.
I originally thought only the three of them had been infected.
Five minutes later, the political commissar was brought over by car.
Liu Sanchen was brought over by his family on bicycles. His face was deathly pale, and each of them was clutching their stomachs, struggling to walk.
Upon seeing Yun Jin and Sister-in-law Gao, Liu Sanchen said, "Sister-in-law, let's eat at the state-run restaurant next time. I really can't handle your cooking!"
After saying that, he went to the restroom.
Go ahead and eat it, you'll get diarrhea every time!
The political commissar looked at Yun Jin, then at He Tingchuan: "If you are going on a mission, don't eat at home. For your health, you must not be careless."
Yun Jin was so ashamed that she hid behind He Tingchuan, feeling incredibly embarrassed.
He Tingchuan was both amused and exasperated: "It's alright, I'll cook from now on, and I won't let her cook."
Yun Jin's eyes lit up, and she looked at He Tingchuan in disbelief: "Really?"
He Tingchuan was stunned by the surprised smile on her face for three seconds, then awkwardly turned his face away, saying bluntly, "We can't let your cooking get us to the hospital again, can we?"
To show her sincerity, Yun Jin offered to pay for today's medical expenses.
The political commissar said, "No need. We soldiers have internal reimbursement for medical expenses. You don't need to pay. If you have that money, buy some good food for Commander He to help him recover. Just don't do anything."
