Chapter 033 She is my mom!
In the next few days, Dapeng followed Lin Wanxia wherever she went. Whenever
Lin Wanxia told him to cast the net, he would cast the net. Although not every net was empty, he would catch fish seven out of ten times. The amount was uncertain. In less than half a month, he made a net profit of one thousand yuan. Not very good, but definitely not bad, and he didn't have to pay filial piety money. Since the reform and opening up, the lives of fishermen have gradually improved, at least better than farmers. A better family can earn four to five hundred yuan a month, excluding the fishing ban period. The prerequisite is to have a boat. If you don't have a boat, you can only work as a boatman for the boat owner, and you get a fixed salary of a few dozen yuan a month, which is not much different from working in a factory. Now Dapeng looks at Lin Wanxia with admiration. Although he admired her, Dapeng still didn't understand how Lin Wanxia fished, and couldn't help asking his grandfather again. "Grandpa, Lin Wanxia only agreed to take me for a month, what should I do after a month? She really can't learn how to fish." He saw that she was just throwing the net here and there without any method. Even Lin Wanxia herself couldn't explain why there were fish there. She looked at him with two big grape-like eyes and kept saying, "I feel there are fish here." Lin Wanxia was telling the truth. But Dapeng didn't think so, and felt that Lin Wanxia was hiding her abilities. Grandpa Sun shook his head, "She grew up in the village, you and I know what kind of life she led, where can she hide her shortcomings? I have been drifting on the sea for most of my life, and I have met more people than you. I know some people are born to make a living on the sea, and Lord Poseidon will reward them with food. Xia Xia is probably such a person!" "Should I still follow her? Or forget it? If I really follow her for a month, it will be even more troublesome if the captain doesn't take me with him. This little money I earn is not enough to honor him." Grandpa Sun turned around on the ground twice while smoking a cigarette, "Follow! Not just this month, but follow her for the rest of my life. I'll go talk to her later." Grandpa Sun bought some children's chews and took Dapeng to Lin Wanxia's house, but found her door locked. After asking the neighbors, I found out that Lin Wanxia was picked up by Chen Bin as soon as she got ashore today. "Didn't she say where she was going?" "I heard that her husband was in the hospital." *** Lin Wanxia was still confused until she arrived at the Island City Hospital. Chen Bin said embarrassedly: "I know you and Jiang Sinian are not a real couple, so I shouldn't bother you to come. But..." Everyone in the Island City knows that they are a couple, and many fishermen saw that Jiang Sinian was seriously injured. It would be inappropriate not to notify Lin Wanxia. "Don't worry, I know the severity of the situation." Lin Wanxia promised. Jiang Sinian was shot and fell into the sea. The wound was infected by seawater, and he is still in the operating room. "Don't worry, the 123 Hospital will send a car to pick him up for transfer. Our Island City is a small hospital and can only save his life temporarily. You can go home when the car comes." Chen Bin said. 123 is the number of the South City Military Hospital. However, man proposes, God disposes. It was noon when the car came to pick up Jiang Sinian. Chen Bin went out to buy lunch, and Lin Wanxia was sitting on a bench at the door of the nursing room holding Xingxing. In addition to the doctors and nurses, there were two soldiers who came to pick up people. These two soldiers obviously knew Xingxing. "Comrade, thank you for helping to take care of the child. Just leave the child to me." The soldier stretched out his hand to Lin Wanxia. "No!" Xingxing opened her mouth and held Lin Wanxia tightly with her hand, "She is my mother!" Lin Wanxia: "..." The soldier who stretched out his hand was obviously more surprised than her. His mouth was wide open enough to fit an egg, and he couldn't find a sound for a long time. Lin Wanxia explained: "This child is talking nonsense! I am just Jiang Sinian..." "You are my mother!" Xingxing hugged Lin Wanxia's legs and refused to let go. Lin Wanxia lowered her head and whispered in Xingxing's ear: "Didn't you say that stepmothers are the most annoying?" Xingxing nodded, "So I only want you to be my mother, not a stepmother!" Lin Wanxia: "..." No, you don't want to. "Big Bottle, hurry up! Captain Jiang's situation is not good. Take Xingxing and leave immediately." Big Bottle agreed, and without bothering to ask Lin Wanxia, ββhe directly picked up Xingxing and waved, "Sister-in-law, come with us to the hospital first." Lin Wanxia: "???" Just like that, Lin Wanxia was wrapped up and put on the car to the military hospital. When they arrived at the hospital, the operating room was ready and they pushed her in directly. Lin Wanxia wanted to follow but was stopped. Dapingzi explained: "Sister-in-law, you may not know that the hospitalization of soldiers is different from that of ordinary people. Ordinary people need their family members to sign when they are hospitalized for surgery, otherwise the surgery will not be performed. But we don't need it. We don't need family members to accompany us." In fact, if Lin Wanxia hadn't happened to be in the hospital, she would not have been notified at all. Soldiers belong to the country first and then to themselves. Even if they go to the hospital, they don't follow the normal procedures. Lin Wanxia nodded, and finally had the opportunity to explain: "Then I am not your sister-in-law, I haven't obtained a marriage certificate with Jiang Sinian..." They are not husband and wife. Dapingzi waved his hand to interrupt Lin Wanxia, ββ"Even if you and Captain Jiang are in a relationship now, I still have to call you sister-in-law. In our place, no matter whether you are married or unmarried, as long as you are an adult and have a partner, you can call us sister-in-law." He raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "Sister-in-law, shall I take you back to the hospital first? You heard what the doctor said just now. Captain Jiang's operation is quite difficult. It will be completed in the middle of the night, and he will go directly to the intensive care unit, so you won't be able to see him. You take Xingxing home and have a good sleep. It won't be too late to come back in the morning." Lin Wanxia: "..." She looked down at the sleeping Xingxing in her arms and didn't explain much. She was afraid that saying too much would cause trouble for Jiang Sinian. It was already dark, and Lin Wanxia couldn't see the sides clearly in the car. She only knew that they had been sitting for almost an hour before the car stopped. Dapingzi brought Lin Wanxia to the room where Jiang Sinian stayed in the family compound.
It was a tube-shaped building with a balcony and corridor integrated. The staircase was in the middle of the building. There were eight households on each floor, with four households on each side of the staircase.
Jiang Sinian's room was the second one on the right. It was
a one-bedroom and one-living room layout, except that a small space at the entrance should have been separated to make a small kitchen.
Dapingzi pointed to the innermost end of the corridor and said, "Sister-in-law, the toilets and bathrooms are over there. The men's toilet and bathroom are at the end of the left, and the women's toilet and bathroom are on the right. They are all shared."
Lin Wanxia nodded and thanked him.
"Sister-in-law, you've been busy all day and you haven't eaten yet? I'll go to the cafeteria to see if there's anything to eat. If there is, I'll bring it up to you. If not, I'll go to the canteen and buy some for you."
Before Lin Wanxia could speak, Dapingzi turned around and left, even considerately closing the door behind her.
Lin Wanxia: "..."
Is this the so-called military speed?
