The political commissar waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to say more: "I heard you weren't feeling well and were staying in the hospital, so I bought you some apples and bananas. Eat more fruit when you have time; I heard it's good for your health."
"You've gone to so much trouble, I can't accept this." Yun Jin had already noticed the net bag in the political commissar's hand. Fruits were a rare treat in those days, and even apples, which she didn't like later, were considered a rare delicacy.
Despite saying it was too much trouble, they didn't hold back at all, as if afraid the political commissar would regret it. They took the fruit and placed it on their own small table. The others secretly swallowed their saliva when they saw the fruit.
The political commissar, who had promised to teach Yun Jin a lesson, not only brought fruit but also fetched a cup of warm water and placed it on Yun Jin's small table. He inquired about her health, acting as if he had come to see a doctor.
After exchanging only a few words, the political commissar got up to leave: "Just bear with it. If it's something you don't want to do, ask someone else for help. Just don't do it yourself. This woman is a bit difficult to deal with. If she really wants to make a big fuss, it won't be good for He Tingchuan."
Yun Jin understood and said, "I know what to do, Political Commissar, don't worry."
The political commissar then went to Feng Qianqian's place with peace of mind, embellishing the story and playing both sides, recounting how he had scolded Yun Jin, saying that he had made Yun Jin cry, that Yun Jin already knew she was wrong, and that she should rest and recover.
Feng Qianqian asked, "Why doesn't she come and apologize herself?"
The political commissar thought to himself that female comrades were just troublesome, always making a fuss and being unreasonable. He thought it would be enough to just let it go. He, a grown man, was exhausted from having to appease and act as a submissive between two female comrades.
“She’s not just having an upset stomach, she’s sick too. She’s pregnant, after all. Comrade Feng isn’t the kind of person who would be mean and bully a pregnant woman, is she?” Once this compliment was put on her, Feng Qianqian really didn’t accept the accusation of being mean and bullying a pregnant woman.
She could only swallow her pride and ask, "Will she still take care of me in the future? The doctor said it won't be fully healed for at least three months to a hundred days."
"Come on, Comrade Xiaoyun is very sincere. She said she'll come to take care of you as soon as her pregnancy is a little better, and she'll definitely take good care of you."
Feng Qianqian believed it to be true.
Yun Jin, who knew nothing about this, had already shared an apple with everyone. It wasn't that she was stingy; there were only six apples available.
There are seven or eight people in the ward, not enough to go around.
