  Chapter 31 Zhan Mingzhao

  The educated youth farm where Zhan Aiping's brother went to the countryside was not far from the station, but it was still several hours away from the mountain road. The transportation at this time was inconvenient and it was troublesome to get in and out.

  There is no train here yet. If you take the train, you have to go to Chuncheng. Therefore, if her brother wants to go home, he has to take a bus to Chuncheng for more than ten hours and then transfer to the train back, which is very troublesome.

  The mountain roads are rugged, which makes it even more troublesome for them to visit relatives. The mountains are densely forested and occasionally dotted with small and large villages, where many ethnic minorities live. Many men and women wearing ethnic costumes can be seen on the road.

  Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping took a ride to the farm, squatting in the back compartment. There were several educated youths in the car, bumping and shaking on the mountain road together.

  When the male educated youth saw how beautiful Zhan Aiping was, his eyes couldn't help but fall on her, thinking that she was also an educated youth newly sent to the countryside, and the man next to her was probably a retired male soldier who also went to the frontier farms to support construction.

  Maybe they haven't obtained the certificate yet and are just working together as husband and wife.

  At this time, the young men and women educated youth in the countryside were at the young age of Mu Shaoai. How could they not have some thoughts of boys and girls? The couple did not obtain a marriage certificate because they were worried that obtaining the certificate would affect their future return to the city. They don't pay much attention to this in the village, and many villagers don't apply for marriage certificates. In their view, after having a banquet, they are an upright couple and they won't gossip.

  "Daughter-in-law, you sit on the edge and come up." Gu Sheng asked Zhan Aiping to sit outside. There was a baffle on the edge. You could see the scenery outside the car behind, but the wind was getting stronger.

  He turned around to half-protect her, blocking the eyes of several men, and declared his sovereignty.

  "You, you, you just--" Gu Sheng did not continue. He missed the time when his daughter-in-law looked so heroic in military uniform. Now she was white and tender, which really attracted people's attention.

  Zhan Aiping leaned against him and said nothing. At this time, she was pretending to be worried. She was thinking about her brother who was about to see her, and she was very excited. After all, she was still worried that her brother was not doing well. They had not known each other for a long, long time. She had seen him before, but she didn't even know what his brother Zhan Mingzhao had become.

  Her brother used to be naive, a little timid, a nice person, but also a little unreasonable, with a bad temper, and stubbornness. He must have become darker and thinner after going to the countryside. He must have suffered so much.

  "Gu Sheng, what has happened to my brother?"

  Gu Sheng was particularly tolerant: "It's already here. You two siblings will know it once they meet."

  Gu Sheng thought that when you two siblings meet, they probably won't recognize each other.

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Zhan Aiping fell on Gu Sheng and slept, thinking that the mountain road was far away, so don't worry so much. When you get to the destination, you will naturally see people.

  She fell asleep like this, then woke up and said it was almost time. Gu Sheng gave her a cake. Zhan Aiping ate it tastelessly, lying on the edge of the fence and looking around. She saw someone. There are rubber trees in the distance, and there are green hills and farmland on the other side. There are people working in the fields, thinking that a populated place is coming.

  Finally arrived, the couple got out of the car with large and small bags of things for visiting relatives. Gu Sheng took all the things on his body, leaving Zhan Aiping empty-handed. The two stood on the road made of gravel at the entrance of the farm and walked inside together. Walk.

  Gu Sheng said that he knew the director here, so he went to have a few words with the director first, while Zhan Aiping couldn't help but go find someone to inquire about her brother Zhan Mingzhao.

  She happened to see a Dai girl in a tube skirt. She was beautiful, had white teeth when she smiled, and was carrying a bamboo basket around her waist. When the girl in the tube skirt saw Zhan Aiping, her eyes lit up and she took the initiative to ask: " Are you a new educated youth?"

  Zhan Aiping thought that she should be a warm and hospitable girl, so she said: "Lesbian, do you know Zhan Mingzhao?"

  As soon as the girl in the tube skirt heard the name Zhan Mingzhao, she immediately lowered her face and stared at Zhan Aiping with a very wary look.

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Because her face changes so quickly, no matter how arrogant Zhan Aiping is, she can still notice something is wrong. Why does her eyes change when she hears her brother's name?

  Zhan Aiping announced her family name: "I am Zhan Mingzhao's sister Zhan Aiping. I am here to visit relatives."

  "You, are you his sister?" The girl in the tube skirt changed her face. Her guard was gone, and her face was filled with unexpected enthusiasm. She walked up with a bamboo basket and took the initiative to stretch Ai Ping's arms. Hands, mouth said a sister: "Good sister, you are welcome to come, come to our place and look around."

  Zhan Aiping: "..." What's going on?

  Could it be that this girl likes her brother and just regarded her as a love rival?

  Is she and her brother dating?

  The girl held her hand and walked inside. This man couldn't be more enthusiastic. They passed by an old-fashioned waterwheel with gurgling water. Next to it, there were two shirtless men beating rice cakes with wooden stakes.

  There was a very fresh smell in the air, Zhan Aiping was stuffed with a handful of bananas in her arms, and someone put a wreath on her head.

  "Sister, come and eat bananas!"

  "Sister, these flowers are beautiful."

  "She is Zhan Mingzhao's biological sister..."

  "Sister, come and try the leaf cake."

  Zhan Aiping: "!" Hospitality is truly hospitality. After going through this circle, she felt like she had many more sisters.

  There was also a seven or eight-year-old girl who had to dance the peacock dance in front of her, chase her and call her sister, and she even got a peacock feather.

  When the aunt in her thirties or forties heard that she was Zhan Mingzhao's biological sister, she smiled warmly at her and said, "Come to my house for a glass of wine today..."

  Zhan Aiping: "..." This is really as passionate as a volcanic eruption.

  "Azhao injured his leg and is resting in front."

  "Many people have come to visit him these days."

  When Zhan Aiping heard that her own brother was injured, she was a little worried, fearing that he was seriously injured. At this time, she had already led a group of people, big and small, behind her, and they all walked under the big tree.

  From a distance, you can see many people gathered under the big tree. If you get closer, you can hear the melodious sound of the harmonica. The sound of the harmonica is very beautiful. The young girl shows a smile, a blue skirt, and beautiful feathers. , and fresh flowers.

  In the center of the crowd sat a young man in a blue jacket. He wore a wreath on his head, held a harmonica in both hands, and played melodious music. His appearance was handsome and delicate, and his skin was dark and shiny. It was precisely because of this strong The dark color highlights his facial features, making him unforgettable at a glance.

  The young man's eyes are very bright, like the sparkling waves in spring water.

  Zhan Aiping was stunned: "...?!!!"

  This is my brother? ? This is my younger brother Bai Hanhan...?

  On the way just now, Zhan Aiping had been doubting in her heart. She suspected:

  --My own brother became someone's son-in-law.

  At this moment, he saw seven or eight young girls sitting around the young man. There were obviously local girls and young female educated youths. They all gathered around him, and everyone was laughing and laughing.

  His legs don't look like much of a thing either.

  It's obvious that he's still trying to attract bees and butterflies, and it's hard to tell who will be the winner. Was her brother so popular with girls before?

  Zhan Mingzhao was still immersed in the music. He was holding his harmonica and enjoying the support of the crowd. Who knew that when he looked up, he caught a glimpse of a beautiful woman.

  That woman was so beautiful, with fair skin and beauty, she shone in the crowd, making it difficult for others to ignore her.

  Beautiful girls always make people feel good, but - upon closer inspection, this girl seems a bit familiar.

  The young man could no longer hold the harmonica in his hand. When he saw Zhan Aiping, who was dressed elegantly and brightly, and her long hair, his mouth opened and his jaw was about to be dislocated.

  Zhan Mingzhao: "!!!" Is this his biological sister? ! ! He shouldn't be dazzled.

  "Hiss-" The harmonica in his hand fell and hit the instep of his foot. Zhan Mingzhao took a breath of pain and suppressed his tears and pain. He must not lose face in front of the girls.

  "Sister, sister, Sister Pingping, are you really here to visit my relatives?" Zhan Mingzhao was stunned. He was shocked, he was confused, he doubted whether the world in front of him was real, "Sister, are you Why has it changed like this?"

  Where is his sister who is as handsome and capable as a man?

  Zhan Aiping's mouth twitched: "...I still want to ask you this."

  How could her timid younger brother, who was shy, white and naive, turn into a dark, thin and handsome little monkey? like him.

  No, as soon as they finished speaking, an enthusiastic aunt spoke next to her: "Hey, I heard that your sister, Azhao, is here to visit relatives. Don't stay outside. Come in and have a sip of tea."

  "Yeah, yeah, come inside."

  "Azhao, your sister is so pretty."

  "You two siblings are quite similar..."

  The orioles and swallows beside them spoke together, chattering like a busy city, and surrounded the two siblings into the house. They poured hot tea and served various cakes and snacks, including jelly and baked rice cakes. There are glutinous rice cakes...

  It was a two-story small bamboo building. It made a squeaking sound when stepping on the corridor. They went up to the second floor of the small building. It was not high and no one could live on the first floor. There was a bamboo shed built on it with various bamboo tables, chairs and benches. The wind blew outside. Come in with the fresh bamboo breeze.

  Zhan Aiping sat with her younger brother Zhan Mingzhao. She took a sip of tea and looked at the enthusiastic Yingying Yanyans behind her. She felt as if she had entered the daughter country, and her younger brother was the Tang monk that everyone was fighting for. Meat.

  The young girl in a tube skirt brought a basket of fresh fruits to the table and enthusiastically let Zhan Aiping try them.

  Zhan Aiping: "I finally understand..."

  Zhan Mingzhao was confused: "Sister, what do you understand?"

  Zhan Aiping said silently: "..."

  At this moment, she suddenly understood the cause of her brother's death in her previous life. In the past, she could not figure out why her cowardly brother would participate in fights and even be beaten to death by mistake...

  After coming here to go to the countryside, his younger brother Zhan Mingzhao became a heart-throb Tang Monk. He was supported by a bunch of orioles and his feet were injured. Countless people came to visit him. He also coaxed a group of little girls to be happy. He is not jealous, he is simply a water master and a friend of women.

  When she entered the house just now, Zhan Aiping saw the envious eyes of several men. They were not jealous of her, but jealous of her brother. Her brother Zhan Mingzhao was so eye-catching.

  Women like him, but men want to beat him up, just because her brother Zhan Mingzhao makes men jealous and hate him. Beautiful girls surround him, but he does not make men jealous.

  Perhaps it was because of this that someone took the opportunity to give him a lesson in the dark, but it was an accident.

  The murderer in the previous life was named Zhang Qi, and he definitely had no grievances against her brother. The two of them had never had any conflicts or quarrels, so the incident was judged to be an accident.

  Zhan Aiping asked Gu Sheng to find someone for help, saying that she was asked by Zhang Qi's relatives to find a way to transfer Zhang Qi away from the farm and go to another area to become an educated youth. Zhan Aiping thought that in this way, it would be possible to avoid this After an accident, warning his brother not to get involved in fights should be able to completely avoid this accident.

  It seems that this is not possible now. If her brother is still like this, there is no guarantee that someone will not find an opportunity to sap him in the dark.

  I have to let my brother leave here, otherwise he really has to stay in someone else's house and become a son-in-law. This is not bad, but I am afraid that there will be several families competing for him and something will happen.

  Zhan Aiping warned him in a low voice: "Don't mess around with men and women!"

  Zhan Mingzhao frowned: "I didn't mess around with men and women. Who said I did? I am good friends with them. We are pure friends. Lili, don't you think so? We are gender-neutral. good friend."

  The Yingying Yanyan beside her smiled softly: "Yes, we are good friends with Azhao."

  "We are close friends."

  "Azhao has never messed with the relationship between men and women..."

  ...

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Neptune will overturn sooner or later!

  Even if he didn't intend to go to sea, he has already created a fish pond. No matter how many fish he raises in the fish pond, he will become a shark.

  "Sister, didn't you say you would bring your brother-in-law to see me? Why are you alone? Where is my brother-in-law? I don't know what kind of brother-in-law you have found for me..."

  Zhan Aiping put down her teacup: "Your brother-in-law is here too. You must remember what you once said. Don't be frightened when you see your brother-in-law."

  Zhan Mingzhao picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water: "What should I be scared of? My brother-in-law can't be Brother Gu."

  When Zhan Mingzhao finished speaking about the arrival of Cao Cao, Gu Sheng popped up. He stood out from the crowd as soon as he appeared. Although he was handsome and good-looking, his appearance was too aggressive for an ordinary girl. When I saw him, I was inevitably frightened. I was more defensive than fond of him subconsciously. When I took a closer look, I realized how handsome this man was!

  Zhan Aiping glanced at her head very calmly: "Come, look, your brother-in-law is here."

  Zhan Mingzhao choked on his own saliva: "Cough cough cough--"

  Seeing him like this, Zhan Aiping said coolly: "That's right, Gu Sheng, he is your brother-in-law now, and it's true."

  Zhan Mingzhao only felt ridiculous: "I don't believe it unless you show me your marriage certificate!"

  Could it be that his sister deliberately asked Brother Gu to put on a show in order to get him to join the army? His sister was really crazy and resorted to such a stupid trick.

  Zhan Aiping waved her hand: "Fifth brother, show your brother-in-law our marriage certificate. By the way, there are also wedding photos."

  Zhan Aiping was fully prepared for this trip, knowing that her younger brother did not believe that they were getting married, so they brought their marriage certificate and photos of the wedding day.

  Zhan Mingzhao stared at the marriage certificate and was dumbfounded.

  Jue is still his sister Jue!

  His sister is crazy. Zhan Mingzhao glared at her: "You married Gu Laowu just to let me join the army?! Are you crazy for destroying the Great Wall?"

  Before Zhan Aiping could say anything, Gu Sheng was furious: "You brat, you are too proud of yourself. Your sister only married me if she likes me."

  Ridiculous, so ridiculous!

  Zhan Mingzhao: "I don't believe it! Unless my sister tells me personally."

  Zhan Aiping said calmly: "I like you, Brother Gu Wu, and I have for a long time."

  Zhan Mingzhao: "..."

  Zhan Mingzhao felt that either he was crazy or his sister was crazy. How could his sister marry Gu Laowu!

  After a stalemate among several people, they were pulled into a long table banquet. The people here were indeed hospitable. Zhan Mingzhao was well-connected here. I heard that his family members came from all the way to visit relatives, and friends came from far away. Naturally, It is to be given a warm welcome.

  So every household mobilized, one dish from your family, another dish from his family, stools and tables were set up to form a long table, and banquets were held to entertain guests from far away.

  Zhan Mingzhao sat on pins and needles, the corners of his eyes twitching, watching helplessly as Gu Laowu brought wine and food to his sister, and from time to time he lowered his head to say hello, making his sister happy.

  His sister actually handed Gu Sheng a handkerchief. Oh my god, his sister actually brought a handkerchief with her!

  Zhan Mingzhao: "..."

  If they were just acting, with their abilities, they would go to the art troupe to act in plays.

  Zhan Aiping and Gu Sheng had the most intimate physical relationship. The intimacy that was naturally revealed when the two got along made Zhan Mingzhao unable to swallow.

  It was hard for him not to believe it, but Gu Sheng showed his monopoly on his sister, and Zhan Mingzhao sadly discovered that his sister was already his woman.

  His biological sister was snatched away.

  His sister was cheated, and he helped count down the money. Zhan Mingzhao remembered that he had said so many good things about Gu Sheng in front of Zhan Aiping, and he wanted to slap himself a few times.

  Make you blind, let you lure the wolf into the house...

  He gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Sheng: "It turns out that you have been plotting against my sister for a long time."

  Gu Sheng admitted this and blinked: "Boy, a soldier never tires of deceit."

  Zhan Mingzhao: "..." Crazy!

  If he couldn't beat Gu Sheng, he would have rolled up his sleeves and punched him.

  Zhan Aiping is his sister, the person he is closest to and closest to in the world. His mother passed away early and his father married another man. In his mind, the person he admires, respects and loves the most is his sister. .

  Knowing that she was getting married, Zhan Mingzhao felt sad for a long time.

  Now that Zhan Aiping is married to Gu Sheng and she is still treating Gu Sheng well in front of him, Zhan Mingzhao is jealous to death, so jealous that acid water comes out of his mouth and stomach.

  After finishing the meal, Zhan Mingzhao hugged Zhan Aiping and refused to let go. He glared at Gu Sheng in a show of force: Even if my sister marries you, she is still my sister!

  "If you dare to treat my sister badly, I will definitely encourage her to divorce!"

  Gu Sheng patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I will definitely treat your sister well."

  Zhan Mingzhao: "..."

  If another man said this, Zhan Mingzhao would be suspicious. But when Gu Sheng said this, he still believed it in his heart. At least his sister did not marry another wild man.

  My father-in-law and mother-in-law are easy to get along with, and they all like his sister.

  Zhan Mingzhao reluctantly accepted this cruel fact: "You two, don't fight in the future, don't be impulsive."

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Zhan Mingzhao frowned and continued to warn: "If you can't argue, don't argue. When you have children in the future, it will have a bad impact on the children."

  He really broke his heart for his sister and brother-in-law.

  Gu Sheng's face turned red and he couldn't help but touch his nose. He and Zhan Aiping had a fight before, and Gu Xiaodi actually came to break up the fight.

  And kids and stuff...

  Zhan Aiping coughed and touched her brother's head: "Now that your brother Gu is your brother-in-law, as you wish, you can go and join the army."

  Zhan Mingzhao stared at her. What does "as you wish" mean? He refused: "I won't go. I don't want to be with those stinky men."

  "I just asked someone to find out. There is a cultural troupe that will be recruiting people next month. I have signed up for you. If you pass the exam honestly, you should be willing to go to the cultural troupe, right? Sister, I think it's good for you to dance ballet. OK."

  Zhan Mingzhao's eyes widened: "B-ballet?"

  Gu Sheng suppressed a smile: "Your sister is right."

  Zhan Aiping: "Look, your brother-in-law is also very supportive. Let's go to the art troupe."

  Zhan Mingzhao: "I won't go, even if you kill me, I won't go. I want to stay here and be an educated youth."

  Zhan Aiping raised her hand: "Gu Laowu, help me educate him!"

  "You go teach him boxing and kicking skills."

  Gu Sheng took Zhan Mingzhao away, and Zhan Aiping asked him to teach Zhan Mingzhao some self-defense skills. He must learn to protect his key parts at all times. She and Gu Sheng have been fighting since childhood, and the better they are at it. People who fight are more protective of themselves.

  Zhan Aiping knew in her heart that she could not let him stay here. Those group of warblers and swallows had all become "big sharks". If nothing happened, something would happen. He thought it was a pure relationship between a man and a woman. If someone were to Caught under the covers...

  Zhan Aiping rubbed her brows and felt a headache.

  At least the art troupe has strict management and won't cause too much trouble. Her brother is like this. Don't let any spicy female soldiers take notice in the future.

  Zhan Aiping and Gu Sheng stayed for a day, and took a ride back the next day. When they came, they had big and small bags, and when they went back, they had the same big and small bags, or even more...

  Because her brother is a heartthrob and a friend of women, many people give her things, and they are stuffed with force. People will run away when they throw them next to her. There are all kinds of mountain products and dry goods, such as dried mushrooms and mycelium. Yes, there are also a lot of melon and fruit teas.

  "Is this good tea? Did it come from my brother or someone else?" Zhan Aiping grabbed a handful of tea and smelled it. It was good Pu'er tea.

  Gu Sheng said from the side: "I don't know, things are too messy."

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "Do you think we are here to enjoy the autumn breeze? We actually brought so many things back."

  Gu Sheng: "... Like to drink tea? My comrades can also get -"

  "No, no, no, it's not." Zhan Aiping took a sniff and realized that this tea is indeed good. I'll get some Dian black tea later. It's also good for making milk tea. There are many buffaloes here, and there's a lot of buffalo milk. Buffalo milk is different from ordinary cows. Compared with the milk produced, the milk taste is thicker, rich in milk aroma, and slightly fishy.

  Neither she nor Gu Sheng were patient tea drinkers. They drank tea like cows chewing peonies. No matter how good the tea was, it was tasteless.

  Zhan Aiping really likes the taste of milk. She prefers milk tea to tea. She plans to get some buffalo milk. It is good to boil and drink. It is also good to use it to make milk tea. If I insist on it, use this milk to make tea. Making milk tea is quite a waste of resources.

  When I think of food, my thoughts can't help but spread. I have planted onions and vegetables in the yard, and I can also plant some edible roses, which can also be called roses. In foreign countries, roses, roses, and roses are called roses, but in China they are called roses. They are divided into roses, roses, and roses. In fact, they belong to the same family and can be grafted to each other. Just like oranges, oranges, and grapefruits, they can be grafted to each other, so that oranges, grapefruits, and oranges can grow on the same tree at the same time.

  The roses sold in flower shops are actually roses, and many edible roses are actually edible roses. It's hard to tell the difference between roses and roses, but they are both flowers.

  Zhan Aiping likes to grow roses, not only because rose flowers are beautiful, come in many colors and come in many varieties, but more importantly - rose flowers bloom every month and can bloom all year round.

  She is a very impatient person. She used to be a bit of a plant killer, and she also planted succulents, which were popular for a while. However, growing succulents was too unfulfilling, and the feeling remained the same even after raising them.

  But the rose is different. Plant a small rose seedling and it will soon give you buds. By topping and pressing the branches, it will soon become a medium-to-large seedling. It grows quickly and blooms diligently. The rose is just like a rose. Just like leeks, one stubble blooms and another stubble grows, and each stubble blooms and another stubble grows. As long as you prune it every time it blooms, it won't take long for it to grow new branches and bloom again.

  It's really sad to think that such a beautiful rose flower can grow as fast as leeks.

  Of course, it is precisely because of this that the flower shop is permanent.

  Because it blooms very diligently, when planting roses, it is easy to get the sense of accomplishment that belongs to flower growers.

  However, there are also many troubles with roses. Roses are delicate and medicinal. Some people grow roses and become experts in raising red spider mites.

  Spider mites are a common pest and disease in flower cultivation. Many flower growers laugh at themselves: "We can't raise anything, but we are professional in raising spider mites."

  Seeing her stunned, Gu Sheng asked her, "What are you thinking about?"

  "I'm thinking about growing flowers." Zhan Aiping replied, thinking about it, her flower-growing soul took flight.

  "Then plant. I see other family members are also planting flowers in the yard."

  "Then I have to pick and choose a few better female plants, prune them and make cuttings." Then she would ask Gu Sheng to help her with the cuttings. Some people have a little bit of metaphysics in them. If they plant a branch, they will have children and grandchildren. The sun is endless.

  The house Gu Sheng was assigned was not big, and the yard outside was not big either. What to plant in the yard had to be carefully planned and not acted rashly.

  Anyway, there are no four seasons here, so there is no rush.

  When you come to this kind of flower growing area, you would be sorry if you don't plant flowers.

  *

  Back at the family home, Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping took a bath and went to bed early. The next day they gave some mountain goods to their neighbors, but they couldn't finish them themselves.

  The two of them had morning tea in the morning. Gu Sheng drank tea as if he were drinking water: "You're not worried about your brother now, are you?"

  Zhan Aiping held the tea cup: "I still have to let him get admitted to the art troupe."

  Otherwise, she is really worried. Her brother is just like in the land of girls, in Pansi cave. It would be better if he is really snatched to be the son-in-law of the stronghold. She is afraid that he will go astray and hurt the girl's heart. .

  Gu Sheng said amusedly: "Do you really want him to become a soldier?"

  Zhan Aiping: "Let him try. You both have the talent to join the art troupe."

  Gu Sheng: "Both each other, Comrade Xiaozhan, you too, the drama troupe is missing an actor like you."

  Zhan Aiping kicked him: "You go to the acrobatic troupe."

  Gu Sheng's vacation was over and he was going back to the team for training. Zhan Aiping packed up and prepared to report to the township hospital in advance. Her organizational relationship had been transferred, and she was told to adapt to the environment in advance.

  "Dean Hao welcomes you to take up a position in the health center!"

  "But Dean Hao is not in the hospital recently. He is studying in the cadre school. You can go to the hospital yourself first. With your academic qualifications, going to a township hospital will really wrong you..."

  Li Yuxia came over to do her ideological work again: "Xiao Zhan, if you have any problems, just take the initiative to tell me and the organization will help you solve the problem."

  "Director Li, don't worry, I don't have any ideological problems." Zhan Aiping was ready to happily go to work in the township hospital.

  Zhan Aiping waved to Li Yuxia, hoping that Director Li would stop focusing on her.

  "Director Li, the family next door to us quarrels every day, why don't you mediate and mediate." The family named Xie next door to Zhan Aiping can really quarrel. The couple often quarrels.

  Li Yuxia waved her hand: "The house next door to you has the same pot and lid. No need to mediate, we can't live without it."

  "They are quarreling with you. I will go talk to them and tell them to keep their voices down when they quarrel in the future."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  She said goodbye to Director Li and got into the car that was regularly used to leave the camp in the family compound. There were several family members in the car. She said hello to a few familiar ones. After all, they were not familiar with each other. They were neither salty nor cold. Ai Ping sat with peace of mind. This car went back and forth to the city every day, and her family members could come and hitch a ride.

  Zhan Aiping needed to take a ride for about 25 minutes to half an hour, get off the car, and walk for about ten minutes to reach the township health center where she wanted to go.

  Rock Core Health Center.

  Rather than a hospital, it is better to say that it is a shabby pharmacy or a small shabby clinic in the future. It is located in a small town. This town is very small, with almost only one street. The nearby villagers and commune members will go to the town on fixed days. When going to the market, the shops include agricultural supplies, chemical fertilizers and seed stores, grocery stores, non-staple food stores, schools, state-owned restaurants, food stalls, grain stations and hospitals.

  Standing at the entrance of the health center, you can see distant mountains. There are very few pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, someone riding a bicycle passes by. Looking back, you can also see some traces of farmland and people driving buffaloes. People walked across the field ridge.

  The health center has a two-story building, a row of brick bungalows, vegetable plots, several wooden sheds with several pigs inside, and a public toilet. Together, it is the entire hospital.

  There is a red cross on the small building.

  There are a total of ten people in the health center. Of course, it does not mean that there are ten doctors, but the hospital is composed of ten people. There are not only doctors in it, but there are only five doctors. Others are responsible for sweeping the floor, collecting money and accounting, There are also people who register, take medicine, and disinfect and wash white coats and sheets.

  As for rural hospitals, they are not divided into departments. They have a Chinese medicine dispensary, a Western medicine dispensary, two or three Chinese medicine doctors, two or three Western medicine doctors, and a combination of Chinese and Western medicine. As for the operating room? Of course, there is no such thing. It requires surgery, and naturally it cannot be treated by a small rural hospital.

  Not many people go to and from township hospitals for treatment every day. Sometimes they are idle for most of the day, and there are no formal wards. However, they need to work night shifts and take turns to watch night shifts. Of course, night shifts are not troublesome. Being on night shift does not mean that you cannot sleep. I sleep in the hospital. When a patient comes, I just open the door and get medicine.

  Generally, you won't encounter a few emergency patients at night. Of course, that's not necessarily the case. Medical conditions are poor now, so many people walk out on mountain roads to reach township hospitals. It's almost night time, and some even walk at night, which is not easy.

  Treating people on duty during weekdays is very simple. It's pretty much the same old routine. Western medicine is relatively simple, just the same old drugs like metamizole, plus red potion and purple potion to treat trauma. The Chinese medicine cabinet is bigger, with a whole row. The red Chinese medicine cabinet fills the air with a strong aroma of Chinese medicine.

  There are paper bags beside the cabinet, as well as scales, baskets, dustpans, and medicinal wine. On the wall is a map of meridians and acupuncture points in traditional Chinese medicine. There is a massage wooden chair and a massage bed covered with white bedcloth that has been washed. It's yellowing, and so is the doctor's white coat, which is yellowing in many places.

  There are infusion needles and syringes in the Western pharmacy. There are two red-brown brown leather medicine boxes at the door. There is a white circle in the center of the front of the leather medicine box with a red cross painted on it.

  At this time, the medical conditions in villages and towns were really poor.

  Zhan Aiping entered the health center and found out that she was not here to see a doctor, but a new doctor. A young female accountant greeted her warmly, but the other doctors showed little interest in her and had no interest in talking to her. , many of the doctors at this time were born as barefoot doctors. In rural hospitals, doctors who graduated from technical secondary schools were already very impressive.

  As for Zhan Aiping coming from Shanghai like this, it is simply a fantasy.

  Several doctors felt that people like Zhan Aiping, who came to the township hospital for a "few-day trip", would disappear in a short time, and their small temple could not accommodate the giant Buddha.

  Another reason why they ignored Zhan Aiping was that they were afraid that she would cause trouble. These young people, if they had some skills, were aspiring to the highest standards. They regarded themselves as miracle doctors and made trouble every day to cure diseases and save people.

  However, after staying in a rural hospital for a long time, you will know that there are no serious diseases that need treatment. Most of them are common ailments, and only a few fixed medicines are prescribed. Traditional Chinese medicine is also very sophisticated. If someone is really seriously ill, they can either wait to die at home or be transferred to a large hospital, which does not require them to play much role.

  In a sense - this is a paradise for salted fish.

  Of course, the "leisure" here is also in contrast. Compared with going to the fields and farming, it is really leisurely. Compared with being a teacher, this work is a bit dirty and not too tiring. If it happens on a day when there are fewer patients, then I was so happy and had nothing to do for most of the day.

  If you encounter several patients in a row at night, it will be really bad luck.

  Accountant Qin Yanfang was curious and excited when she saw Zhan Aiping, a young and beautiful new doctor. She took the initiative to introduce the hospital to her: "There are only Chinese and Western medicine pharmacies. They are very simple. There are not many patients at night... There are chickens, ducks, and pigs on the ground. They are all raised by our hospital. The pigs are almost fattened. If you catch the good time, if you kill the pigs, you can still eat some meat..."

  "We had lunch together at the hospital. I live in the hospital, yes, in that bungalow. I haven't found a partner yet... Are you married?"

  "Well, I am a military dependent and came here with the army."

  "Really? Your man must be very handsome, otherwise how could I have such a beautiful wife like you..."

  "Dr. Zhan, I still have an empty bed in my room. How about you live with me? If you don't go back at noon, you can take a lunch break there."

  Zhan Aiping chatted with Qin Yanfang for a few more words and learned a lot about the situation in the health center. When she learned about the salary and benefits, she suddenly regretted one thing:

  --Someone's pocket money was given too much.

  Chapter 32 Eat well and drink spicy food

  Zhan Aiping is a college student. She just graduated and stayed in a big city like Shanghai. She is still a doctor and has a higher starting salary than ordinary workers. She earned 58 yuan a month in Shanghai after graduation.

  Now that I have come to a rural hospital and become an ordinary rural doctor, the salary...is no more than a few cents more than someone's pocket money.

  Zhan Aiping: "..." Take it as it comes, and there is no need to regret it. Although the salary of doctors in rural hospitals is not high, in fact, there is no need for money to buy anything at this time. Being a doctor also has other benefits. This The rural doctors of that era were most in need of food.

  Doctors and teachers in rural hospitals don't have much money, let alone farmers. Many times they are grateful for the medical fees doctors use to treat diseases, using eggs, fruits and various mountain grains.

  Although Yunnan Province is a border area, it has a good climate, lush vegetation, and an abundance of mountain products, such as black truffles, matsutake mushrooms, morels, gallinaceous fungi, and porcini mushrooms. After all, you will not be hungry, and you may still be able to enjoy spicy food.

  --Wherever you go, you eat wherever you go.

  The rural hospital can also give her a vegetable plot and a house. She can plant some flowers in front of the house and behind the house, and she can make flower cakes to eat in the future.

  Zhan Aiping asked accountant Qin Yanfang: "Xiao Qin, are there any other empty rooms in the hospital? I have more things here. I also want to prepare Chinese medicinal materials, pound pills, and make plasters myself. I'm afraid you won't be used to the smell... "

  This is the plant kingdom, and there are many kinds of Chinese herbal medicines. Chinese herbal medicines are not directly effective when dug out. They require more processing by professionals. Different medicinal materials have different processing methods.

  Although she says so, in fact Zhan Aiping doesn't really want to live in the same house with others. Now she is a person with "family members" after all. When the time comes, it will be very inconvenient for a doctor's family member to come here to spend the night. .

  She must let her revolutionary friends live in her family room!

  Qin Yanfang was stunned: "You--"

  Qin Yanfang really couldn't keep up with Zhan Aiping's thinking. Although she warmly entertained Zhan Aiping, she never thought that Zhan Aiping would really take root here. She thought, after hearing what Zhan Aiping said about their hospital, Qin Yanfang He must be smiling and nodding on the surface, but actually preparing to escape privately, and will never really stay in Yanxin Health Center.

  That's why she invited Zhan Aiping to live with her. This saves trouble and avoids having to clean up the house. Zhan Aiping is not used to it after staying for a few days. She can leave when she wants without delaying anything.

  Now she actually asked her if she had any room available? ? ?

  Is it possible that Dr. Zhan really plans to stay at the health center? !

  "Yes, there are. There are still a few empty rooms, but I'm afraid you won't notice. The roof leaks. It leaks when it rains. In my house, I have to bring a basin to catch it when it rains-" The tiled roof of the hospital It is enough, and there are still a few empty houses, but they are in disrepair, unoccupied houses, and without "popularity" to support them, they can easily break down.

  Qin Yanfang's tile house also has a leak on the roof. It's okay when it rains lightly. But when it rains heavily, you have to get a bucket to catch it. Fortunately, there are two distinct seasons, dry and wet. It only rains a lot in the rainy season, and it's concentrated in midsummer. The roof Water leakage was regarded as a "cooling" gift from God. It was very comfortable to sleep listening to the sound of rain. Qin Yanfang did not think of repairing the roof, so she made do with it.

  Zhan Aiping said: "How many rooms are available? Take me to see them."

  Qin Yanfang: "Just a few rooms over there, I'll take you there."

  The brick and tile buildings of the hospital are connected in a row, and there is a drainage ditch at the door of the front house. In front of the drainage ditch is a vegetable field, which can also be said to be a "flower garden." Qin Yanfang planted a very tall "sunflower" in front of her house. Qin Yanfang casually planted it. One finger: "I'll treat you to sunflower seeds from now on."

  I just don't know if Dr. Xiao Zhan can stay until the sunflower seeds are ripe.

  "OK."

  Qin Yanfang took her there and introduced the houses where several other doctors lived: "That's Dr. Zhou's home. There is a swallow's nest under the eaves of his house."

  "This room is empty, and there is a beehive at the very edge. Because no one lives there, we didn't dig out the beehive. It's not a hornet's nest. It should still produce honey in the future..." Qin Yanfang doesn't know much about bees, but after listening to Other doctors said it was not a hornet's nest and that bee pupae could be eaten in the future.

  "Dr. Zhan, there are so many wild bees in the mountains here. There must be dozens of species. I can't even recognize them. They are all bees anyway. The locals love to eat bee pupae. If you go to the village, you might still be there. If you eat, I will give you bee pupae, so I don't know if you are afraid or not, and if you dare to eat them, even the girls from the city dare not eat them."

  "Actually, there's nothing to be afraid of. Those bee pupae are white, plump and quite cute. I only dare to eat bee pupae at the insect feast here. I don't dare to eat other spiders or grasshoppers either..."

  Zhan Aiping glanced inside and said directly: "This is the one."

  "Ah?!" Qin Yanfang, who was still talking, was frightened. Has this been decided?

  "Doctor Zhan, do you really plan to live here?"

  Zhan Aiping asked: "What? Isn't it possible?"

  "No, it's not impossible, just pick a room at will. Anyway, you are a new doctor, so you should have a room to live in. You can't make it back when you work the night shift. If you take a nap at noon, you can have a place, but There is no furniture inside, and you have to find someone to make furniture..." Qin Yanfang scratched her head. Moving is easy to say, but in fact it is quite difficult. There is only an empty room inside. "Look, it's leaking from above. If you live there, you have to find a craftsman to repair it-Dr. Zhan, you, you, your God!"

  Before Qin Yanfang could say anything, she didn't know what happened to Zhan Aiping. She suddenly went up to the roof and disappeared in front of her.

  Qin Yanfang: "?"

  How come a beautiful female doctor from a big city is as skilled as a monkey?

  Zhan Aiping popped her head out from the roof: "Don't worry, I can mend the roof myself, and I plan to reinforce the house."

  "Xiao Qin, is your roof over there? I'll go and patch it up for you later."

  "I need to get some tiles. Let me see if there are broken tiles in the corner over there." Zhan Aiping caught a glimpse of several stacks of tiles under the eaves, and there was a date tree not far away.

  Qin Yanfang saw her "walking on flat ground" on the roof, and was frightened: "Doctor Zhan, be careful, don't fall."

  "Don't worry, you can't fall from this height."

  Zhan Aiping asked Qin Yanfang to deliver tiles to her. She wanted to repair the roof of her house, so she might as well patch everything up. Qin Yanfang handed her the materials underneath, "Dr. Xiao Zhan, you are really... you are like a cat. "

  Qin Yanfang felt that Zhan Aiping was like a beautiful little wild cat she had seen before. She was white, elegant, and fluffy, and licked her paws proudly. However, it was extremely capable and could go up to the roof whenever it wanted, slowly. By wagging its tail, its ability to catch mice becomes stronger, and by slapping its paws, it teases the mouse as if it were a toy.

  So awesome, so awesome!

  Qin Yanfang's face turned red and she was very excited.

  They were repairing a house here, and Dr. Zhou, who was sitting in the Chinese medicine dispensary, came out to watch the fun. Dr. Zhou was almost forty years old. He used to be a barefoot doctor in the village. Later, he went to the county hospital for training for a period of time and was assigned to a township hospital. Be a doctor.

  Dr. Zhou Zhonghua saw a beautiful young girl repairing a house. His mother-in-law asked him to go up to repair the house before, but he refused to do it because he was afraid that he would fall due to his old age. As a result, he went to the roof of a pretty girl's house and couldn't help but blush.

  He ran out and cleared his throat. In order to show his ability, he adjusted his glasses and took the initiative to comfort the young girl on the roof: "Zhan, this little Dr. Zhan, thank you for repairing the roof. Don't worry. I'm good at orthopedics, so I'm not afraid even if I fall. If someone falls, they always come to me to fix their bones."

  And if he fell, no one would fix his bones. That's why he didn't go to the roof.

  We must protect orthopedic surgeons.

  Zhan Aiping: "..." What a fart.

  Qin Yanfang was speechless and could only explain: "Doctor Zhou is really good at treating orthopedics."

  Zhan Aiping: "I'm very good at it too! You can come to me to set your bones after you fall."

  "Really, I used to know several old military doctors who specialized in orthopedics."

  Dr. Zhou: "????" I don't believe there is someone better than me. Can this little girl treat orthopedics? Talk big.

  Qin Yanfang: "???" Why are the words of these two doctors so creepy?

  It's like a crow has flown by.

  It doesn't take much to repair the roof. Zhan Aiping has temporarily repaired it. Of course, if it needs to be reinforced, it will take more effort. Now it can only be said that it does not leak.

  Zhan Aiping came down from the roof, and Qin Yanfang went to find some keys to the house and gave them to her: "If you want to change the locks, you can find a locksmith to change the locks."

  The door of the brick house is made of wood. The old-fashioned wooden door lock has a bolt inside. The lock is just an ordinary small iron lock. In fact, it cannot prevent any thieves. It can be opened violently with a hammer, but there is such a thing. Keeping the lock is always a good idea. There is nothing to steal from every household these days.

  "Okay." Zhan Aiping went into the house to take a look. There was a layer of dust inside, and it needed to be cleaned. It was almost two rooms, a little smaller than the one Gu Sheng shared. The front door and the back door faced each other, and there was a waterway behind it. Ditch, front and rear doors can be accessed.

  "Dr. Zhou has a wife and children. He has built a house behind his house. If you want to build it, you can build it yourself or build a shed. We don't have anything else in the hospital. The place is quite big and there are some fruit trees planted in the back. ..." These houses do not have personal property rights, they belong to the hospital. As long as you keep working in the hospital, you can live there for a lifetime, until you retire and die.

  Of course, you still have to pay a symbolic rent of one yuan to the hospital every month.

  Although their health center looks shabby, the planned area is actually quite large. A large area is owned by the hospital. The government now strongly encourages and supports the development of township hospitals, strongly supports the development of township medical care, and also provides training for rural barefoot doctors. , hoping to collect the scattered barefoot doctors into the hospital.

  Qin Yanfang didn't have any ambitions. She felt that she would probably just work in this small rural hospital until she died.

  Anyway, the current accounting job in the hospital is very easy and she feels very comfortable.

  When you have a family and it is no longer enough to live in, it is allowed to build an additional house at your own expense, like Dr. Zhou did. After all, you are raising a family, and the land in the countryside is not valuable. With everyone's consent, you can add one or two more houses. between.

  Qin Yanfang is currently single. Although she has a partner, she is not married yet, so she lives in a small room, which is enough.

  "Our hospital also has an orchard. You can pick as many fruits as you want. The fruits are not valuable anyway. When the results are produced, everyone will share a share." Fruits are abundant here, and the fruits are very sweet. However, the fruits are difficult to store and can't be eaten all. If it rots in the ground, just pick some delicious fruits and eat them, or give them to relatives and friends.

  The remaining fruits, which have a mediocre taste, are fed to the pigs. The pigs raised in the hospital are quite fat and often have extra meals.

  "It's enough for me to live alone." Zhan Aiping thought that instead of building a house, she could get a clay oven. In the future, she could bake bread, cakes, sweet potato chips and the like in the hospital without being inconspicuous.

  Compared with the camps, there is a lot of freedom in rural hospitals and they are not eye-catching. Listen to what Qin Yanfang said, if you want to build more houses, you can modify them as you like, and do whatever you want.

  There are many doctors here, and even if the family has little cash, there will definitely be no shortage of food. Maybe there is a lot of delicious food in the family.

  "Xiao Qin, can you borrow a broom? I want to clean and mop the house." Zhan Aiping planned to clean up, and then asked Gu Sheng to help get some old furniture, so that people could live in it soon. If She couldn't get furniture, and there was quite a lot of bamboo here, so she made some bamboo supplies herself.

  "Yes, I'll get you a broom. Doctor Zhan, you're busy first. I'm going to the pharmacy to take a look. Come and have a meal at my place at noon." Qin Yanfang found her a broom and a rag. Go and do the work yourself.

  Zhan Aiping simply tidied up the house, cleared the dust, and opened the front and back doors. The light in the house was very good, and a skylight was opened in the middle. It ventilated the front and back, and the two places had convection. The flow was very good. Of course, Feng Shui said This does not attract wealth, but the buildings at this time are like this, with the front and rear doors facing each other, making it comfortable to live in.

  After being busy for a while, it was noon, and Qin Yanfang came to invite her to have dinner with her, "Doctor Zhan, I'm almost done cooking."

  She cooked food right at the door of the house, taking out the stove and pots when needed.

  Dr. Zhou ran over at this time and said, "You two, let's make do and come to my house to eat together. I warmly welcome Dr. Zhan to our health center."

  Dr. Zhou Zhonghua was very surprised when he saw the new Dr. Zhan start cleaning. Is it possible that Zhan Aiping really wants to stay in the township health center?

  --She repaired the roof for us by the way.

  What a disgrace to male doctors.

  Dr. Zhou is well-known in the area for his traditional Chinese medicine treatment of orthopedics. His wife works in a supply and marketing cooperative and his children are in school. His family situation is pretty good. He doesn't have much money and has enough food at home, so he invites the two of them to have a meal. .

  Some of the other people in the hospital have eaten, some have gone on medical visits, and some have returned to their hometowns nearby instead of taking turns to work, and may not necessarily stay in the hospital every day.

  The Zhou family set up a table in front of the house, and Zhou Zhonghua's daughter-in-law Meng Xiaoyun was also there. She worked in a supply and marketing cooperative and came back for lunch. She was a bit fat aunt, with a round face and round waist, and a very kind smile. But when Meng Xiaoyun saw Zhan Ai, Ping, seeing that she was so good-looking and that her old friend Zhou invited her over for dinner, I couldn't help but murmur in my heart.

  She glared at Zhou Zhonghua, who smiled and said, "You have to thank Dr. Zhan for helping to repair your roof. You kept chattering for so long."

  "Ah? Did you repair the roof?" Meng Xiaoyun was stunned. Repaired the roof? This thin, pretty and pretty little girl in front of me? is that a lie.

  "Did you really unite to deceive me?" Meng Xiaoyun looked at Qin Yanfang, and Qin Yanfang nodded: "I was the one who handed the tiles down there."

  "Really? This is really great. Originally, I wanted to go up and repair it myself, so I borrowed this ladder-"

  Zhou Zhonghua laughed at her: "With your tonnage, our house will collapse."

  Everyone laughed, and Meng Xiaoyun also laughed. She was happy that the roof was repaired, and Dr. Zhou continued: "Don't do this as soon as possible. Just thank Xiao Zhan."

  "Yes, thank you Dr. Zhan."

  menu Pickled radish.

  When Zhou Zhonghua saw her food, he really disliked it: "Qin Yanfang, tell me how you will get married in the future. You will never get tired of eating pumpkin in vinegar soup and pumpkin in vinegar soup every day."

  Qin Yanfang is not married yet. She lives alone and is very casual about food. She eats boiled pumpkin every day. This pumpkin soup with vinegar is very simple to make. Just boil the pumpkin in water. Cut the pumpkin as big and fast as possible. Add white vinegar and Boil the ginger together and it's an easy dish. Add some pickled radish and spicy ginger to make it a meal.

  Pumpkin can be stored for a long time, which is very trouble-free. Occasionally, stir-fry some vegetables and some meat, and it will just go away when it comes to eating.

  "Don't dislike it. My pumpkin soup is very delicious. Doctor Zhan, come and have a bowl of my pumpkin soup. Doctor Zhou, if you dislike it, don't drink it."

  Qin Yanfang scooped a bowl of pumpkin soup for Zhan Aiping. Zhan Aiping tasted it and found that the pumpkin soup in vinegar soup tasted really good. It had a special sweet and sour aroma. The pumpkin was fragrant and glutinous. It tasted soft and fragrant with a hint of ginger. It tastes fragrant, has a light yellow soup, and the orange-red pumpkin is bright in color, which is particularly appetizing.

  Zhan Aiping said: "It tastes really good."

  The four of them all drank a bowl of pumpkin soup. Meng Xiaoyun said on the side: "That's not true. People cook this dish every day and it's cooked to perfection."

  Qin Yanfang laughed, obviously very proud: "It tastes good, I think one dish is enough."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Suddenly she felt that there were many strange people in the world, just like she could eat carrots for a month, Gu Sheng could eat potatoes for a month, and Qin Yanfang could eat pumpkins for a month.

  Everyone has lived a hard life now, so there will be no abundant food in the future.

  Meng Xiaoyun asked Zhan Aiping: "Doctor Zhan, have you found a partner? Are you married?"

  Zhan Aiping: "We're married. My husband is a soldier and I came with the army."

  "Really? Army wife." Meng Xiaoyun felt relieved when she heard this. Thinking of the misunderstanding just now, she couldn't help but blush.

  She helped her repair the roof again, and she was so beautiful and harmonious. Meng Xiaoyun felt a little guilty and couldn't help but be more enthusiastic towards her.

  "You don't have kids yet?"

  "Newly married, just married."

  Meng Xiaoyun: "Oh, that's great, Xiao Qin, why don't you follow Xiao Zhan's example and get married earlier."

  Qin Yanfang smiled and said nothing.

  Zhou Zhonghua asked Zhan Aiping: "Dr. Zhan, do you study Chinese medicine or Western medicine? Did you really know an old military doctor before? Do you know how to do orthopedics? With your small body, do you know how to do orthopedics?"

  Doing orthopedics requires talent, not just medical skills. Treating orthopedics is a hard work, and great efforts can produce miracles.

  "I have studied both Chinese and Western medicine. I am a retired female soldier and went to a military medical university."

  "Really, really?" The three of them looked at her dumbfounded. The beautiful young woman in front of them turned out to be a retired female military doctor.

  "Then why didn't you go to the military hospital?"

  Zhan Aiping didn't hide it either: "I left the military hospital before, but now they don't want me."

  Zhou Zhonghua said: "It's okay. Come to our health center and work hard in the future. With your academic qualifications, maybe the dean will be yours from now on."

  Meng Xiaoyun: "Why do people care about the director of this shabby hospital..."

  Zhou Zhonghua chuckled a few times. Although he said this, he actually disagreed. Although this young girl had a high degree of education, how could she compare to an old doctor with decades of medical experience in terms of ability?

  Qin Yanfang finished drinking the pumpkin soup: "I'm waiting to call Dean Zhan."

  Zhou Zhonghua said: "The dean is not here, and our Chinese medicine dispensary is short of people. You can come to the Chinese medicine dispensary to work. Do you really know how to do Chinese medicine? If you don't, I, an old doctor of many years, can still take care of you."

  Zhan Aiping said: "Yes, I know Chinese medicine."

  I just picked up the scalpel again, but I didn't expect to go back to my old profession. In fact, in rural hospitals, there are too few supplies and materials for Western medicine, so it is difficult to make a difference, and the villagers also prefer traditional Chinese medicine remedies.

  At present, Zhan Aiping's goal is to settle down first, familiarize herself with the health center, the basic situation around her, and take care of things in her "new home". Since she grew up eating in the cafeteria, she no longer wants to eat in the cafeteria and just treat her as a snack. Goods to satisfy the appetite.

  Life is so long, and there are many things that are not in a hurry. Thinking about the wild bees that Qin Yanfang mentioned just now, Zhan Aiping planned to find a time to go up the mountain to get wild honey to eat, and visit the home of the bees!

  The wild honey here is a treasure! Take the opportunity to go up the mountain to look for medicinal materials. This is the kingdom of plants. There are many types of medicinal herbs, and you may be able to dig out many treasures.

  However, you must be well prepared for going up the mountain. There are many treasures on the mountain and it is also dangerous.

  After eating at noon, Meng Xiaoyun pulled Zhan Aiping: "Dr. Zhan, thank you for helping me repair the roof of my house. I will give you something to try. The ham made in my hometown is delicious. I cut it for you." One piece, with fat on it."

  Qin Yanfang said from the side: "Doctor Zhan, you must try this, it's so delicious!"

  "Okay, thank you, Sister Meng."

  "Hey -" Meng Xiaoyun smiled very kindly. She was happy to see such a beautiful young girl like Zhan Aiping calling her sister.

  Zhan Aiping also happily accepted the ham given by others, thinking it would be good to get to know more fellow villagers. The ham in Yunnan Province is quite famous. This ham is also used in canned military supplies, but the canned food is nowhere to be found in this place. People make delicious food.

  In the afternoon, Zhan Aiping just cleaned and chatted with others. When she left, she wrapped the ham in oil paper and picked up some pea shoots and sweet peas grown in the health center.

  She is now full of expectations for her future life, and in the future she will lead her revolutionary friends to have a good time.

  At this time, many things are original, and a lot of treasures on the mountain have not been discovered by anyone. For example, at this time, the black truffles in Yunnan Province are fed directly by farmers to pigs. Sows love to eat black truffles, and they don't have black truffles yet. With such a noble-sounding name, it is the sow's beloved-Porcine swine fungus.

  The taste of wild mushrooms just picked from the woods is the best in the world.

  Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

  Zhan Aiping was holding her things and waiting for the camp car. She was wearing her watch and didn't wait long. The camp car picked her up. She took the car back to the family compound. Zhan Aiping was holding ham in her arms and didn't wait long. No matter how public it is, put out the tender pea shoots.

  There was no one chatting in the car. Zhan Aiping thought about going home to cook. She got out of the car and rushed to her yard. When she entered the yard, she met the family of Officer Xie next door. She was also a young woman. Zhan Aiping is a teacher in primary school, and her name is He Lingling. They quarrel often. Zhan Aiping is not familiar with this person, and is familiar with her voice. They have not spoken a few words in the past few days since she has been here.

  "Commander Gu's family, are you back?" He Lingling stopped her. He Lingling looked at Zhan Aiping with a somewhat complicated look in her eyes. She thought to herself that it was really a new generation replacing the old ones.

  In the past, He Lingling and Officer Xie were a young, beautiful and well-matched couple in the family compound. They were both good-looking and young, and their family conditions were pretty good, and neither of them were just digging in the fields. He Lingling was the youngest daughter of the family and was raised rather delicately. Seeing that Xie Shu was good-looking and a soldier, she followed him all the way here with the army. Their life was very chaotic. Although they often quarreled, they could get by.

  When the two of them quarreled, they could quarrel like crazy. After the quarrel, they were inseparable and loved each other more than anyone else.

  Now a young new couple has moved into the house next door to them. They have better family conditions than theirs. One is tall and handsome, the other is pretty and pretty, both are college students, and there is also a female military doctor. At first, He Lingling didn't really want to go with her. Dealing with his family.

  He Lingling thought that the house next door might be the same as hers, and would probably have a lot of quarrels every day. Unexpectedly, after a few days here, she didn't see the house next door blushing.

  Even Director Li Yuxia came to teach her a lesson: "Just follow the example of the young couple next door to you. Where did they quarrel?"

  He Lingling felt uncomfortable after hearing this, and she was thinking in her mind that the young couple next door looked like they were inseparable from each other.

  Still childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts?

  What a "deep feeling". Gu Sheng is such a qualified person. As for being a bachelor in the army before, he suddenly got married now?

  He Lingling didn't like to get along with military wives who were better off than herself. She thought Zhan Aiping could go to a military hospital, but she ended up going to a township hospital. This made her feel that she was superior to her as a primary school teacher for her children, and as a Doctor, it's so dirty and tiring.

  Now she heard that Zhan Aiping had gone to the township hospital to "adapt to the environment" and was waiting for her to ask about the situation.

  "Teacher He?" Zhan Aiping called her while holding Ham. Although she didn't want to chat with He Lingling, she still had to be polite.

  He Lingling took the initiative and said, "I see that the one in your family gets along well with you. Director Li also asked me to learn from you. She said that we quarrel every day. It's not that I want to quarrel, but that one in my family needs to be dealt with. I have a lot of problems all over my body. I snore when I sleep at night. How many times have I told him to wash it off..."

  He Lingling's complaints flowed out smoothly, and she could tell a lot about her husband's problems.

  Zhan Aiping just listened to her quietly, holding her ham in her arms. She also inquired about the situation of the couple next door and knew what was going on, which was the norm for some young lovers.

  When she was complaining to her friends, she could tell a lot about her husband's faults and shortcomings. When her friends told her about her husband's faults and advised her to "break up", she could naturally tell a lot about them. The advantages of your husband, and then blame you for not understanding the way they get along as a couple.

  Then he said - this is the sweetness and helplessness of loving someone.

  She would also ask: "Is there no relationship between you and your lover? In fact, our boss Xie is very considerate to me..."

  "Hitting is affection, scolding is love, not spanking or scolding is not love."

  For this reason, Li Yuxia and Director Li suffered greatly, so they said that the couple "fits the pot with the lid."

  "Our Lao Gu..." Zhan Aiping did not follow He Lingling in talking about her husband's faults, but instead mentioned her own man.

  He Lingling listened curiously, just to hear if Zhan Aiping would also say something bad about Gu Sheng.

  Zhan Aiping continued: "My Lao Gu has one advantage. He has had a good-looking face since he was a child. Seeing how good-looking his face is, I can't bear to hit him."

  "I really can't bear to hit him." Actually, no, she had been very cruel in the past. Although it wasn't serious, she still wanted to put a little color on his face.

  In other words, this is the beauty of battle damage.

  He Lingling: "..." He obviously just wanted to talk to her about the quarrel, but it escalated into a fight next door.

  "Yes, really? I often quarrel with that guy at home, but he's very measured and never makes a move."

  "I grew up with Lao Gu, and I don't know how many times we were beaten." Zhan Aiping said first, "Hitting is affection, scolding is love."

  He Lingling: "...Yes, yes?"

  It was the first time He Lingling encountered such a situation, and she didn't know how to deal with it. She changed the subject and said, "Doctor Zhan, how did you feel when you went to the hospital today?"

  "It's very good. I look forward to my future life." Zhan Aiping waved to her: "Teacher He, I'm going back first."

  Zhan Aiping went back with the ham in her arms. There was not much meat, and she was quite afraid that others would covet her own ham.

  Anyway, she had enough of the household chores, so Zhan Aiping turned around and went back.

  He Lingling looked at the back of her leaving gracefully and couldn't understand her. She went to the township hospital to stay. Is she still in pain or not? Are you really not going to make trouble with her family?

  After Zhan Aiping returned home, she simply packed up and prepared to make her own stewed rice with ham and peas.

  Make a big pot of ham and peas stewed with rice, then ham and potatoes stewed, and finally stir-fried pea shoots.

  She rolled up her sleeves and cooked the food, so that when Gu Sheng came back, he could smell the tempting aroma of ham coming from her house in the yard. He came back late today and did not go to the canteen to eat. He would be really hungry now. The smell is really killing me.

  What on earth was his wife making at home? It smelled so good. The smell of ham was so terrible.

  Gu Sheng walked into the house and asked directly: "What are you cooking? It's so delicious."

  Zhan Aiping: "Ham stewed with rice and ham stewed with potatoes. Come on, try it." She called Gu Sheng over and gave him a spoonful of potatoes and ham. Gu Sheng didn't show politeness to her and ate it directly.

  When you eat it, it is so fragrant. The salty aroma of the ham is absorbed by the potatoes. The soft potatoes have the savory meaty taste. It is really delicious and makes people want to swallow it with their tongues.

  After taking one bite and thinking about a second bite, Gu Sheng pointed to his mouth and signaled to continue.

  "You still want to eat? Go take a shower quickly and look at how you smell." There were still beads of sweat on Gu Sheng's forehead, and his handsome face became more determined. He looked as salty as the ham. fragrant.

  Zhan Aiping asked him to take a shower, and Gu Sheng quickly took a shower and changed clothes, "You doctors are just poor and particular."

  After taking a bath, it was time to start dinner, and he didn't even bother to talk. Gu Sheng ate more ferociously than anyone else, gobbling it down.

  She ate too much, so Zhan Aiping quickly put her portion into her own bowl, and established a clear distinction between Chu and Han. They were both ricers, he was the big ricer, and she was the small ricer, but she couldn't let him The big rice bucket swallowed her share of the little rice bucket.

  Gu Sheng stared at the Chu-Han River boundary and recognized it.

  Zhan Aiping said: "It tastes good."

  Gu Sheng admitted: "I'll treat you with admiration after three days of separation. Your cooking is delicious."

  Zhan Aiping smiled proudly, patted his shoulder, and boasted: "From now on, your sister Pingping will take you to eat and drink."

  Gu Sheng's mouth twitched: "..."

  "In my life, I have never had a few days of good food and drink."

  Gu Sheng is telling the truth. Children of the Gu family are not like this. They are most afraid that their mother's cooking will be unpalatable. They also like to cook, so it is better to eat in the cafeteria.

  He thought that he would be just like his father in this life, but he didn't expect that his wife's food would suddenly taste so delicious.

  Gu Sheng: "You go to the hospital and take food with you?"

  Zhan Aiping blinked: "I got it based on my ability."

  Gu Sheng sighed: "I thought you were going to the hospital and you would deduct my pocket money when you came back."

  Zhan Aiping clicked her tongue: "You are quite self-aware."

  "I won't hold you back, I keep my word."

  Gu Sheng touched her head tenderly and said softly: "Are you really planning to stay in the township health center? Now that you ask me to beg Dean Xu, I can still bravely block his office."

  "No need, it's fine now. I've been assigned a house in the health center. Next time I'll take the family members of a doctor like you to get to know him."

  Gu Sheng smiled: "Okay, I am Dr. Zhan's family member."

  "Give me a face."

  "clear."

  At night, the young couple lit up the lamp and continued to study making clothes together. The radio was also on, and they could occasionally hear the quarrels next door. Gu Sheng hugged his wife and went to bed to rest.

  "Can you get some old furniture? The house I was assigned is empty..."

  "I'll think of a way."

  Gu Sheng was extremely happy. He kissed Zhan Aiping on the forehead. He felt that the past few days were like a dream. They had delicious food and drinks, and his wife would sleep in his arms at night. They were really magical days.

  When did that guy Gu Xiangyi come over? Come and see her brother's magical life of "living well and drinking hot food".

  Of course, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and she can't fly there for a while.

  Before Gu Sheng could wait for Gu Xiangyi, he first received a call from the old man Gu Ze'an. Needless to say, Gu Ze'an scolded him on the phone at the beginning. Obviously he already knew that Zhan Aiping did not go to Chengjun Hospital, but Went to a small rural hospital.

  "Why do I have such a cowardly son like you? Let Pingping suffer the injustice with you? Oh, forget it if they don't agree to you. Are you her man? Why don't you dare to bang the table with the dean? Why should he? Don't Pingping..."

  Gu Sheng didn't say anything, just listened to his scolding.

  "You are just like your little sister, you know how to be in trouble."

  "Your little sister was transferred to your military hospital to be a nurse. I originally thought that their aunts and sisters could take care of each other..." Gu Xiangyi, the younger sister of the Gu family, didn't have good grades, so she reluctantly went to nursing school. Gu Ze'an and his wife Originally, he wanted to keep his daughter by his side, but he didn't expect that his daughter had grown up and had ambitions, so he had no choice but to do as she wished.

  There is a shortage of doctors and nurses here, and it is a border area. Coming here can be regarded as a support, and it is not difficult to mobilize here.

  Gu Sheng said: "It's not far away and I can take care of her. Let her come over quickly."

  Gu Sheng thought that it would be appropriate to be in a military hospital, not too far away or too close.

  Gu Ze'an was suspicious in his heart, and he asked deliberately: "Let your little sister come over and see how you deal with Pingping?"

  Gu Sheng: "... Just ask her to come over. Just say that her sister-in-law also wants to see her."

  When he talked about his wife, there was an unconcealable smile in his tone.

  Gu Ze'an hung up the phone, thinking of his youngest son's smile, and felt his snack feel cold for no reason.

  Could it be that this guy really took care of Pingping?

  Chapter 33 Gu Xiaomei

  After hanging up the phone, Gu Ze'an was muttering in his heart. His wife Qin Ying asked him what was wrong, "Are Lao Wu and Ping Ping not having a good time?"

  Gu Ze'an: "Lao Wu was on the phone, and he was laughing. He actually still laughed. He still laughed when he knew his sister was here..."

  "Isn't it good to laugh? If Lao Wu and Ping Ping live well, we can rest assured." Qin Ying also laughed, as long as nothing happens over there.

  Gu Ze'an muttered: "We can't let this kid get too complacent. I'm worried about one thing right now -"

  Qin Ying: "? What's wrong?"

  "I still suspect that the two of them faked their marriage just to fool us." Gu Ze'an thought over and over again, recalling many anomalies and the pride of his youngest son Gu Sheng on the phone. An idea flashed in his head, and he suddenly figured it out. one thing.

  Qin Ying was stunned: "...the two of them had a fake marriage?"

  "Yes, this is the only way to explain it. They are just pretending to be married to fool us." Gu Ze'an clapped his hands, and the more he thought about it, the more he realized that this was the case: "They should be sleeping in separate rooms, not a real couple. Before All the phone calls he made were just for us to watch, well--don't tell me what's going on with our family."

  Qin Ying: "..."

  Qin Ying was a little partial to this answer in her heart. Lao Wu and Ping Ping suddenly got married and acted so weirdly. The only answer could only be that they acted it out.

  --They were just a fake couple. They not only deceived outsiders, but also deceived their family members.

  "Lao Wu must have colluded with Ping Ping. Otherwise, he could be so proud. I noticed something was wrong with him last time I called him. This time he is proud again. He knows his son better than his father. The two must have colluded successfully. Got it!"

  "When his little sister passes, the two of them will definitely continue to act in front of Xiangyi, and maybe they will act like a 'loving couple'. Who believes this? Let me believe it, I don't believe it. The more loving this is, the weirder it is. They must have staged it on purpose--"

  It was not without reason that Gu Ze'an thought this way. He glared at Qin Ying: "The sons you gave birth to all have some artistic talent, and each one is better than the other at acting."

  Their eldest son, the eldest son, became a member of the Municipal Standing Committee. In the newspaper, he was very good at acting. The twins, the second and third, were a little bit worse. The fourth and fifth twins got up again. The fourth was a tenor. He is also good at acting in dramas. The one with the best appearance in the family is Lao Wu. Gu Ze'an originally thought that Lao Wu might want to do some art and join the art troupe. Lao Wu's appearance and voice are better than Lao Wu, but he was reluctant to do so. , he fell in love with Ping Ping, the guy next door, and he started fighting and causing trouble, and made himself more and more rough...

  Qin Ying stared at him: "Can you blame me? It's not like you, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."

  "Are you like me? At least I am sincere in my feelings. I believe that one person will last forever. The boss is just like me. As for the fifth child, I don't know who he is like. He treats marriage and relationships so casually..."

  Qin Ying: "Stop criticizing the mulberry tree and the locust tree. I admit that I married you just to have more meat."

  Gu Ze'an snorted coldly. He went out for a walk. It was better not to go out. As soon as he went out, he bumped into an old man who was walking his baby. The old man was about the same age as him. Gu Ze'an had a higher position than him. He had to shoulder everything. It can't suppress him at all, and his grandchildren will already call him grandpa and grandma.

  Lao Qian has no ambition now. Both of them are about to retire. Gu Ze'an has three years to retire. Lao Qian is the same age as him. Qin Ying has already retired. Gu Ze'an is reluctant to take off his military uniform, but Lao Qian, this stinky old man, can't wait to retire immediately. , no, as soon as she saw him, she deliberately responded harshly: "Commander Gu, we are all sixty years old, it's time to take a rest."

  Gu Ze'an chuckled: "You are only sixty years old."

  "You have five sons, why don't you have any grandchildren? I heard that the fifth son of your family got married recently. It's time for you to have grandchildren next year." The old money man doesn't have any ambitions for his career now, so he just It doesn't matter anything else, just teasing the old man.

  Gu Ze'an: "..." The hope of having a grandson still lies with the "fourth child". The fourth child is in the art troupe, and at least he is surrounded by a bunch of beautiful actresses.

  The eldest son is not married. He takes care of his office every day, either in meetings or on the way to meetings. He obviously wants to devote his whole life to work.

  Gu Ze'an no longer has any expectations for the twin brothers, the second and third. The second is in the Northeast Military Region, and the third is in the navy. Apart from the military wives, there are not many women on the second's side. As for the third, they are at sea all day long. It would be nice to see someone while floating.

  Gu Ze'an snorted and ignored Lao Qian, "I don't care about my grandchildren."

  --He still cares about it.

  He is almost sixty, and he doesn't even have any grandchildren.

  When Gu Ze'an returned home, he quickly called the fourth child and scolded him. He planned in his heart to find someone to introduce a partner to the fourth child. The fourth child of the Gu family felt particularly aggrieved: "The fifth child is already married. You want to have a grandson? Why don't you hurry up and urge Lao Wu to go away, and seek the far away instead of the near?"

  "I'm busy preparing for the show."

  "Old man, do you think I'm suitable for starting a family? I perform outside every day and I'm away from home all year round. I'm either here or there to offer condolences. I still have to rehearse and I'm busy."

  Gu Ze'an: "..."

  "Why did I give birth to a bunch of rebellious children, all of them busy, too busy to have a family? Oh, what if the eldest son had..." Gu Ze'an didn't dare to say anything anymore. The eldest son wanted to get married back then, but it didn't happen, and there were a lot of other things left. Bad melons and bad dates mean that you will never get married.

  Qin Ying also regretted mentioning this matter, "Don't worry, wait until Pingping has Lao Wu's child--"

  Gu Ze'an's eyes almost popped out: "Old lady, what did you say?"

  "I said Pingping has the fifth child."

  When Gu Ze'an heard this, he felt uncomfortable all over: "Pingping has a child from the fifth child? Is this... is this possible?"

  "What if they get married under false pretenses?"

  Qin Ying whispered: "If these men and women sleep on the same bed, something will happen."

  Gu Ze'an remained silent: "How about I find a photo of them to sober you up?"

  There were photos of Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping at home, and there were quite a few of them. Gu Ze'an randomly pulled out one. The two handsome young men in the photo looked like a pair of "good brothers."

  Qin Ying: "..."

  Gu Ze'an pointed at one of the handsome young men and said, "Can you imagine her being pregnant?"

  Qin Ying felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on her head.

  Gu Ze'an snorted and expressed his disdain: "They dare to have a child, but I don't dare to have one. What kind of demon kings were these two when they were young? Their children will be turned upside down."

  Qin Ying: "..."

  Qin Ying couldn't help but said: "It would be nice to have a daughter who will be like her little aunt."

  "Her little aunt is just a rabbit, she only knows how to live in a nest."

  Qin Ying: "..."

  "Dad! What are you talking about me!" Gu Xiangyi appeared from behind. She had been busy packing her things for the past two days, asking about the situation there every day, and she couldn't wait anymore.

  "What are you talking about? I told you to listen carefully to the words of the fifth brother and the fifth sister-in-law when you get there."

  "Don't worry." Gu Xiangyi responded.

  She is looking forward to meeting her fifth brother and her fifth sister-in-law. She and her fifth sister-in-law have not seen each other for a long time. She especially admires her fifth sister-in-law Zhan Aiping. She is a female military doctor!

  Gu Xiangyi secretly guessed that her fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law might have had a fake marriage. She thought that she would go there and help fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law cover up the marriage.

  The fifth brother and the fifth sister-in-law are all face-conscious people. Even if they want to divorce, they will have to divorce in two or three years. Fortunately, they are still young and will not delay anything.

  That's weird!

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Why did they get married so casually? !

  *

  Zhan Aiping officially started working in the health center. The house she was assigned in the health center had changed a lot. She had cleaned it up. Gu Sheng had someone come and give her a batch of old furniture. Zhan Aiping I got some bamboo pieces myself and made daily necessities such as bamboo beds, bamboo stools, and bamboo baskets.

  She also built a soil oven behind the house and baked some bread. Qin Yanfang and Dr. Zhou said that her skills were good, but Chinese people don't like to eat bread, and Zhan Aiping also doesn't like to eat bread. Steamed buns and Noodles are their specialty, and Dian Province prefers rice noodles and rice noodles.

  The work in rural hospitals is indeed not busy. There are about fifteen days of day shift in a month, three days of outpatient clinics, and five or six days of night shift. Doctors can switch shifts with each other, and the day shift and night shift can work on one consecutive day. , as long as there are no patients, you can stroll around the health center, plant flowers, raise grass, and water the vegetable fields, which is very free.

  Zhan Aiping took the time to reinforce the house, made a rocking deck chair, and set up an umbrella shed at the door. She lay on the rocking deck chair and took a nap at noon. Doctor Zhou looked at it and her eyes grew hot, so she asked her to help make one.

  Dr. Zhou told his wife Meng Xiaoyun: "I can't tell the depth of Dr. Zhan's medical skills, but this carpentry job is really hard to say."

  Meng Xiaoyun: "Isn't this just like treating bones? I read that the orthopedic surgery written in your book means being a carpenter? Dr. Zhan comes from a big city, and he must have learned this kind of orthopedic carpentry..."

  Dr. Zhou: "..."

  Meng Xiaoyun: "How come you don't know how to do carpentry?"

  Dr. Zhou almost couldn't lift it in one breath: "You bitch, what do you know?"

  Most of the patients received daily in the health center are just ordinary patients without many difficult and complicated diseases. Zhou Zhonghua observed Zhan Aiping's medication diagnosis and treatment and determined that she was reliable, so he gradually relaxed.

  When it was the day of medical consultation, Zhou Zhonghua called Zhan Aiping to go to the village with him. He rubbed his thumb and index finger and said to her: "I will take you to make some extra money to generate income for the hospital."

  Zhan Aiping was a little curious about how to make extra money, but she wanted someone familiar to take her to the village to get acquainted with the village cadres and brigade committees. Dr. Zhou obviously had this network.

  People in the mountains are more or less xenophobic, maybe because they are warm and hospitable, but you can't just say that you are a new doctor and you want to treat people. Who will believe you when they see you are so young? If the patient does not cooperate with treatment, no matter how good the medical skills are, it will be in vain.

  In the job of a doctor, it is true that the older you are, the easier it is for people to trust you.

  "Okay, Doctor Zhou, I'll be with you."

  Zhan Aiping and Zhou Zhonghua went to the village together. Zhou Zhonghua was really familiar with people from all over the country. Many people greeted him along the way. Some people asked Zhan Aiping, "Hey, who is this?"

  "This is the new doctor in our health center, Zhan Aiping."

  One advantage of a familiar person like Zhou Zhonghua is that he can ride on other people's tractors and ox carts along the way, all by swiping his card to get on the bus.

  "Dr. Zhou, go to the village. I'll give you a ride."

  Zhan Aiping was indeed envious: "When will I get such treatment?"

  Zhou Zhonghua was very proud: "If you want to become as famous as me, you should do it slowly. It will probably take three to five years."

  This young man still wants to imitate him, so let's take his time.

  This doctor, who treats illnesses and saves lives, does have a high social status and is respected by others.

  "Who from all over the country has never heard of my name, Dr. Zhou?"

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  They rode a bullock cart to the village. Zhan Aiping finally understood what Dr. Zhou meant by "extra money". She thought they were going to treat people, but the villagers took them to the "pig shed". In this era, people lived in The houses are not very good, let alone the pig shed.

  They come to deliver the sows and provide pre- and postpartum care.

  --Dr. Zhou has a wide range of practice.

  Sun Daqiang, who is in charge of raising pigs in the brigade, told Zhan Aiping: "Dr. Zhou has excellent medical skills. He can also treat pigs with acupuncture. He is better than those veterinarians, who don't know acupuncture."

  "You little girl are his apprentices? Follow and learn."

  "We raise a lot of pigs in our brigade, thanks to Dr. Zhou's guidance."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  In this era, the most precious wealth of every household is pigs. The state encourages pig raising, and the brigade commune attaches great importance to pig raising. Pig raising is also a rare channel for farmers to increase their income. The year's harvest and the children's new clothes depend on the pigs raised at home. .

  Raising other things would be labeled as capitalism, but raising pigs as a sideline business to increase family income is clearly supported by the state, which encourages one pig per person, one pig per acre, and the more the better.

  In addition to collective dividends, farmers also rely on the sideline business of raising pigs to increase their income.

  Although farmers are prohibited from slaughtering and selling pork privately, there are food stations everywhere that purchase pigs. The food stations purchase pigs and can exchange them for farmers' money, fertilizer coupons, and cloth coupons. Each person with urban household registration has a limited supply of cloth stamps. For villagers without urban household registration, this is a rare source of cloth stamps.

  Raising pigs is not easy, as you are afraid that they will die of illness and the pigs will be gone before they are ready for slaughter.

  Sun Daqiang pointed to a sow and said: "This pig has just given birth, and the milk is not enough. I am afraid that the other piglets will not survive. The team leader asked the hospital to take away two of them to see if they can survive. Be careful. This The pig is fierce."

  Their brigade raises several kinds of pigs, including a local small black pig, which is a cross between wild boars and domestic pigs and is domesticated. It has a fierce and domineering personality. This kind of small wild boar in the mountains will bite people when it comes to people. Even if it is kept in captivity, it has a bad temper. It's also very hard, and some even chew through the fence and run away.

  However, the meat quality of this kind of black pork is very good, the taste is delicious, fat but not greasy.

  The sow that gave birth was a little black pig with a tough temper. She chewed the pen and ran away twice before. She was very aggressive when she just gave birth. She protected the piglets and wouldn't let anyone get close to her. She didn't have enough milk to give birth to piglets. They have the same domineering personality. The two more powerful piglets are fat and fat, while the others are so thin that they are about to starve to death.

  Waiting for the sow to give birth is a frightening job. I am afraid that the sow will accidentally crush the piglets to death, and I am also afraid that the piglets will not survive.

  Doctor Zhou told Zhan Aiping: "This pig is a good pig, the meat is delicious, and the sow in our hospital still has some milk."

  He gave Zhan Aiping a look: It's a good pig breed, but if you feed it, it's just a waste.

  "Xiao Zhan, you are very strong."

  Zhan Aiping: "Thank you Dr. Zhou for your trust."

  It turned out that he had brought her to "pick up the pig".

  Sun Daqiang's team was not so generous, so he gave them the two skinniest piglets: "Just those two, we will take them out later."

  "Be careful with the sow."

  Zhan Aiping said from the side: "If the milk is not enough, you can induce lactation for the sow."

  Dr. Zhou said: "There is not enough food for people, so how can we have anything to promote lactation for pigs?"

  "Instead of boiling water with a smelly white peony root to induce lactation, why not mix it in pig feed and give it to the sows." Zhan Aiping seemed to have heard of this method before.

  Sun Daqiang: "...Is this possible?"

  Dr. Zhou: "Why don't you give it a try? Dr. Zhan is a woman and she is more familiar with gynecology."

  Zhan Aiping: "...?"

  Gynecology? ! ! !

  Zhan Aiping made an advertisement by the way: "Yes, I understand gynecology. Women in the village can come to me if they have children or have other minor problems."

  Sun Daqiang: "..."

  So a few people got together to try to induce lactation in the sow, and they succeeded. The sow's milk production increased, and Zhan Aiping also had more contact with the villagers.

  "The milk is out, the milk is out!"

  "Be gentle."

  ...

  Although the pigs were raised carefully at this time, the breeding methods were indeed rough. Zhan Aiping had also read some scientific methods of raising pigs, and exchanged and learned with the village cadres.

  Her reputation spread, and some people even asked her to treat the buffaloes. The two female buffaloes had mastitis. Zhan Aiping should have refused, but she was greedy for the buffalo milk.

  She said that Dr. Zhou was versatile, and in fact she was the same. She had read a lot of veterinary related books before, and many Chinese medicinal materials could also be used on livestock. Zhan Aiping had read a lot of them in order to expand her knowledge.

  Zhan Aiping went to the village to treat the female buffalo. When she arrived at the cowshed, she found that the buffalo had an elevated temperature and fever. The whole body was not normal, the eyes were red, and the milk secretion was abnormal. Zhan Aiping gave the buffalo a full body examination. , it was determined to be mastitis. According to the actual situation, medicines such as honeysuckle, dandelion, and licorice were prescribed and fed to the buffalo. They also instructed people to massage the female buffalo and give the sick buffalo injections. A two-pronged approach. Two or three days later, the mother The buffalo gradually returned to normal.

  Knowing that Zhan Aiping likes to drink buffalo milk, the commune sent her buffalo milk several times.

  "Thank you, Doctor Zhan."

  "Thank you Dr. Zhan..."

  The two little black pigs were also raised in the hospital's pig shed and were alive and well. The villagers gave her some bacon and wild bracken dug from the mountains.

  Through the exchanges with the villagers during this period, Zhan Aiping learned a lot of local dialects. There are many local dialects here, and the locals can understand Mandarin. After all, the commune broadcasts broadcasts every day, but outsiders may not be able to understand the local dialects. People's words.

  Zhan Aiping already knew a lot of the local dialect here, but now she is even more familiar with it. Now when she is walking in the town and in the fields, many people know her and greet her, calling her: "Doctor Zhan." "

  --Although the method was not quite right, she temporarily integrated into the grassroots.

  Zhan Aiping also went to deliver the babies of several women and got some brown sugar eggs. Of course, when people give birth, they mainly ask the old midwife to deliver the babies. She was too young and refused to believe her.

  There are also women from the town who come to her for gynecological treatment. At this time, there are few female doctors and many male doctors, and women are embarrassed to go to male doctors for gynecological treatment. Now there is a young Zhan Aiping who is willing to come to her for treatment. , gradually, her reputation for treating gynecology spread.

  The buffalo milk sent by the villagers was fresh and rich. Zhan Aiping cooked a large pot of milk tea and made double-skinned milk. The remaining dough was kneaded to make milk-scented steamed buns. When the steamed buns were steamed, the milky fragrance continued. The child jumped out.

  Qin Yanfang drooled with greed and shouted: "I can't stand it anymore. Doctor Zhan, you live next door to me. I can't stand it anymore. Are you a doctor or a cook?"

  Zhan Aiping gave her a cup of milk tea. Qin Yanfang didn't like drinking buffalo milk before. She thought buffalo milk had a strong fishy smell. After making it into milk tea, the rich milk aroma was mixed with the sweet tea aroma, which was amazing.

  Although Zhan Aiping ate alone in the hospital, she was a good eater and could also cook one or two dishes. Qin Yanfang came to eat once or twice, which made her feel embarrassed, so she also cooked the dishes herself.

  Meng Xiaoyun joked: "Dr. Zhan came and got this lazy guy to work."

  Qin Yanfang said: "When I see others cooking, I can't help but follow suit."

  The buffalo milk sent by the villagers was not much, but in order to show their generosity, they gave me a bucket of buffalo milk. Milk is delicious if you drink one or two cups, but if you drink more, you will feel bored and unable to drink it.

  Zhan Aiping went back with half a bucket of buffalo milk and gave some milk tea to a few people in the family home. She heated the milk-flavored steamed buns at home and ate them together when Gu Sheng came back.

  As soon as Gu Sheng returned home, he immediately smelled the alluring fragrance of milk. He ran home in a few steps and rubbed his nose: "My wife, you really led me to eat well and drink spicy food."

  There was nothing he could do about it, the aroma at home was too strong. Even if he wanted to tell people that his wife couldn't cook, he couldn't hide it. Now the family home knew that his food was delicious.

  "More than just taking you to eat and drink, I'm almost becoming a celebrity now." The town is small, Zhan Aiping is pretty, and she is a new doctor, military family members, and everyone in the town and nearby villages knows her. .

  "There won't be anything like that at the train station anymore. If someone dares to follow me behind me, don't worry, a lot of villagers will beat them up first. I'm very popular now."

  Gu Sheng gave her a thumbs up: "It's amazing, my wife is amazing now."

  Other military relatives in the camp do not necessarily interact with the surrounding villagers. Most of them live in the camp, which is a world of its own.

  "Do you want honey water? I'll make you a cup." Zhan Aiping went up the mountain alone once or twice, and she found pure wild honey, but there wasn't much, just a small jar, which was very fragrant.

  This is truly pure natural wild honey. As soon as you open the jar, the fragrance of flowers suddenly hits your nostrils. The fragrance is extremely rich. Zhan Aiping didn't like to drink honey water at first, but she soaked it in water and liked it very much. The fragrance is rich and lingers for a long time. fragrant.

  "I won't drink it anymore, I'll leave it for you to drink." Gu Sheng had tasted this wild honey and knew that this honey was good, but there wasn't much, so he wanted to leave it all for his wife to drink.

  "You can take a sip of mine. Come on, drink some."

  "Okay." Gu Sheng smiled and took a sip of the honey water.

  There was indeed not much honey. Zhan Aiping did not plan to go deep into the mountains and forests in the near future. Although she had not had enough time, she had a special feeling and guessed that she might be pregnant.

  Because she wasn't sure yet, she didn't tell Gu Sheng.

  "My little sister called me and told me that she has arrived in Spring City. She should be able to come over tomorrow. Wife, won't you go to work tomorrow?"

  "Well, I won't go to work. I'll pick her up then."

  Gu Sheng said: "No, you just wait in the camp."

  "good."

  Gu Xiaomei came over, and the couple tidied up the house a little. Their newly made bed was already ready. Zhan Aiping said that the smell should be dispersed first, so they still used the old bed.

  The next day, Gu Sheng got up early. When the bugle sounded, the people in front left. Zhan Aiping listened to the bugle, yawned, stayed in bed for a while, changed her clothes, cooked noodles and had breakfast.

  She beat an egg into the noodles, and finally sprinkled a handful of fresh chopped green onions. The soup was bright, and the beautiful poached eggs covered the chewy noodles. She had gone to the village to deliver babies twice before, and her family really had no shortage of eggs. Eat, people like to give eggs when they have a baby.

  After eating the noodles, Zhan Aiping went out to water the vegetable field and feed the chickens and ducks at home. The chickens and ducks raised at home have grown up a lot, they are chattering and very energetic.

  A lot of things were planted in the vegetable field at the door, which was lush and green, including peas, peppers, and pumpkins... There were also flowers planted in the corner, a flower stand was set up, and Zhan Aiping also planted some sunflowers.

  After lunch and a half-hour lunch break, Zhan Aiping looked down at her watch, estimated the time, and went to the gate of the camp to wait for Gu Xiangyi to arrive, chatting with others.

  Not long after, the car came, and a young girl got out of the car dragging a large red-brown suitcase. She was not very old. She also had fashionable short shoulder-length hair. She was pure and lovely, with a few strands of hair sticking to her face. , it looks a bit playful.

  She looked around and walked in. Zhan Aiping walked up to her and called her: "Little sister."

  Gu Xiangyi glanced at Zhan Aiping's face and thought to herself that such a beautiful military wife was tall and tall. Who was so lucky to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law? She said very politely:

  "Sister, I'm waiting for someone."

  Zhan Aiping: "...I am the one you are waiting for."

  Gu Xiangyi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "My sister-in-law asked you to pick me up."

  Zhan Aiping looked at her with pity: "I am your sister-in-law, little sister."

  How blind is this silly girl?

  "You are my sister-in-law? How could you be my sister-in-law?" Gu Xiangyi was confused for a moment. The sister-in-law in her impression was tall and handsome, with sharp and capable facial features... huh? Become whiter, take off the military uniform, have a slim figure...put on a skirt...

  This is her sister-in-law! ! !

  "Let's go, go back first, don't get lost on the road." Zhan Aiping took the red-brown suitcase in her hand and led the people to her home. Gu Xiangyi walked beside her in a daze and in a daze.

  She couldn't react at all. The beautiful woman next to her was really her sister-in-law.

  Zhan Aiping has had good facial features since she was a child. She has double eyelids, beautiful eyes, and long and curly eyelashes. Gu Xiangyi used to be particularly envious of her eyes, but in her impression, Zhan Aiping always had neat short hair. Gu Xiangyi had never seen her with long hair.

  Although it is still the same face, it is different.

  When Zhan Aiping had short hair, the broken hair in front of her forehead would still cover her forehead. Now her long hair is combed to the back of her head. Her fluffy black hair, white and tender skin, and her whole plump and rosy pretty face are exposed. .

  Gu Xiangyi's face turned red. Her sister-in-law was so beautiful!

  Are her fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law really married or fake? If she really got married, her brother would have made a lot of money by marrying such a beautiful sister-in-law.

  They both grew up together!

  Zhan Aiping took her home and made Pu'er tea for her. Gu Xiangyi sipped the tea and was stunned. She saw the wedding photo of her brother and sister-in-law on the wall. In the photo, the two were kissing each other intimately. next to each other.

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  She felt like she was in a dream. This was completely different from what she imagined her brother and sister-in-law's house to be.

  It was said to be a battlefield filled with smoke, but why did it look so warm?

  "Sister-in-law, why do you want to marry my little brother?"

  Zhan Aiping said casually: "I like him."

  Gu Xiangyi had a strange expression: "Do you think as the little girl of the Gu family, I am easy to deceive?"

  "You guys obviously haven't gotten along since you were little. Tell me how many times you two have fought?"

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "Why don't you ask my next door neighbor."

  Gu Xiangyi was confused: "What are you asking?"

  "Hitting is intimacy, scolding is love. Your brother and I have been fighting since we were young. Do you know how close we are?"

  Gu Xiangyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Sister Pingping, please stop teasing me."

  "You and my brother have loved to tease me since we were little, but I'm not that stupid now!"

  Zhan Aiping: "...you still don't believe me if I tell you the truth."

  "I'll wait for my brother to come back, and I'll see how you two perform together."

  Zhan Aiping: "Okay, okay, wait for your brother to come back, and I will cook food for you to eat tonight."

  Gu Xiangyi: "No, Sister Pingping, you two take me to the canteen. Sister, you are my biological sister. Don't cook. You really don't want to cook. I want to try the canteen in your camp."

  "Do you know how miserable I was when I left home? To show her care and love for me, my mother cooked for me for three days."

  "If you cook for me again, I'm going to scream for help!!"

  It was indeed miserable to eat the food cooked by Aunt Qin for three days, but - "Your brother said he wanted to eat the food I cooked."

  "My brother is a warrior, but I am not. No, my brother still dares to eat the food you cooked. I respect him as a man."

  "He is the man of our Gu family, a real man!"

  His brother ate his sister-in-law's food and ended up in the hospital! He dares to eat it! He didn't want his life.

  Zhan Aiping rolled up her sleeves: "You want to come here to quarrel with your sister Pingping, right?"

  Gu Xiangyi: "...Wait until my brother comes back, Sister Pingping, don't act rashly again."

  At this time, Gu Sheng really showed up. He came back early today and heard the voices of the two sisters outside. He came into the room and said directly: "What are you two arguing about? You two started arguing before I came back?" "

  "Gu Xiangyi, don't you want to form an alliance with your sister-in-law?"

  Gu Sheng warned her: "Don't quarrel with your sister-in-law. Your brother and I finally got a wife. Is it easy for me?"

  Gu Xiangyi: "Stop acting, brother. You two didn't understand the lines well. Do you think this is what you should say? You can't even deceive me, and you still want to deceive our father."

  How could her prickly fifth brother say something like, "I finally got a wife."

  Gu Xiangyi also warned his brother and sister-in-law: "Stop your wishful thinking!"

  "You two might as well beg me. If you beg me, I'll help you cover it up."

  The corner of Gu Sheng's mouth twitched: "Who wants you to cover up? Stop putting gold on your face."

  Gu Xiangyi said: "Then let me ask you, why did you marry my sister-in-law."

  "I like her. Is it possible that I have liked her since I was a child? I have been thinking about your sister-in-law for a long time."

  Gu Xiangyi's face darkened: "Liar, you two liars, when things get tough, you don't treat me as one of your own, you lied to me because you don't trust me!"

  "Do you want to hear the truth in your mouth?"

  "You even lied to me!"

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  The couple looked at each other, while Gu Xiangyi was furious: "Do you still want to collude with others? Just be honest and I won't tell others."

  Zhan Aiping pushed Gu Sheng's arm: "Hurry up and take a shower while I cook."

  Gu Sheng nodded: "My sister has been stupid since she was a child, so don't pay attention to her."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  It's okay not to wait for this broken brother and sister-in-law's house!

  Gu Xiangyi: "...Before I came, my mother told me to break up the fight."

  Gu Sheng went to the room to get clothes: "Then you can go back. We haven't had a quarrel since your sister-in-law married me."

  Gu Xiangyi: "Why? I don't believe it."

  Gu Sheng was too lazy to answer whether she believed it or not. He went to take a shower and change clothes. He changed into newly made clothes, a white shirt and army green trousers. After taking a bath, he looked very handsome. Even Gu Xiangyi looked at him when he saw him. I feel like my eyes are brightening.

  Her brother has a bad temper and his appearance is nothing to say.

  "Brother, where did your clothes come from? They look pretty good. Why don't you wear military uniforms?"

  Gu Sheng showed off: "Your sister-in-law made it with her own hands."

  Gu Xiangyi: "...Do you think I will believe it?"

  Gu Sheng: "Why are you so stupid? Are you really my biological sister?"

  "Stop arguing, Gu Sheng, come and help me choose vegetables and cut meat." Gu Xiaomei came over today. Zhan Aiping bought a chicken and some fresh pork. She planned to make chicken soup, braised pork, and Grill the ribs, make a pickled fish, stir-fry bracken and bean sprouts, and make cured rice.

  Gu Sheng: "I'd better change into old clothes."

  The new clothes made by my daughter-in-law are reluctant to get oil stains on them.

  Zhan Aiping smiled and looked at his body, thinking that he was really a coquettish guy.

  "Wait a minute, let me take another look." She pulled him, thinking that the clothes she made were really nice.

  Gu Sheng lowered his head and looked at her tenderly. The two of them were used to being intimate with each other at home, and subconsciously wanted to kiss her. Later, when she realized the light bulb not far away, Zhan Aiping stiffened and pushed her away.

  Gu Sheng went to change clothes. After changing clothes, he came to help her with the chicken. The couple cooked together and had a tacit understanding.

  Gu Xiangyi watched from the side. She felt for a while that the fifth brother and the fifth sister-in-law were a truly loving newlywed couple, and then she thought that they were too good at acting.

  Gu Xiangyi: "Brother, sister-in-law, I don't dare to eat the food you two cooked."

  "Am I about to encounter the Hongmen Banquet?"

  Gu Sheng was too lazy to talk to her: "If you don't want to eat, pack your things and report to the military hospital."

  Gu Xiangyi: "How about I cook with you?"

  Like her mother Qin Ying, she is very addicted to cooking.

  Gu Xiaomei thought that she would die alone, so why not die together? She would also have to cook!

  She dreams of cooking for the people she likes!

  Zhan Aiping: "No, don't come, Gu Sheng, hold your sister down and enter the first level alert state."

  Gu Xiangyi: "Sister-in-law, are you really my sister-in-law?"

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  Did they start fighting among themselves?

  Chapter 34 The truth

  Zhan Aiping and his wife cooked a table of food and called Gu Xiangyi over to eat. Gu Xiangyi had been hungry for a long time. The whole house was filled with the unmistakable aroma of rice and vegetables. This was a scene that had never happened before in the Gu family. Gu Xiangyi felt like he was in a state-owned hotel.

  Unfortunately, this is not a state-owned hotel, this is the home of her little brother Gu Sheng. She has five brothers, all four of whom are not married. She only has one brother and sister-in-law. This is the first time she has experienced this kind of unique experience. feel like home.

  It was getting dark, so Zhan Aiping turned on the light. The light in the room was not very bright, but it also illuminated a table of delicious, delicious and delicious food, which made people salivate.

  In the middle is chicken soup stewed with cordyceps flowers. The soup is thick and thick, with a layer of yellow oil floating on it. The pieces of chicken are dyed orange with the cordyceps flowers. The braised meat sauce next to it is rich in fragrance, and the meat is soaked up with the sauce and is bright red. , alternately fat and thin, if you look carefully, you can still feel the fragrance of star anise; the other pickled fish is beautiful milky white, the sourness of the soup makes people appetizing, no fish meat is visible, and little floating pickled vegetables are dotted on it. In the milky white fish soup...

  The thing that made Gu Xiangyi couldn't help but take a few more glances was the fried bracken with bacon, which contained a lot of dried chili peppers. It smelled so fragrant that even the juice turned red, just by looking at it. Just know how much food you can eat.

  The most fragrant thing was the cured rice cooked by his sister-in-law. Gu Xiangyi had never known that cooked rice could be so fragrant before. The alluring aroma of rice penetrated into his nose, and he couldn't stand it, as if he had a few greedy insects. It flowed down the tip of the nose and into the stomach, causing an uproar.

  Gu Sheng put down the bowls and chopsticks: "Try your sister-in-law's craftsmanship."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  She glanced at her brother's face, and then without being polite, she stretched out a chopstick to pick up the bracken. It was amazing. The slightly dried bracken had no excess moisture, and it was slightly smooth to chew, and it even blended in. In addition to the salty and pungent aroma of chili peppers and bacon, this plate of fried bracken alone is enough to go with the meal.

  Gu Xiangyi's chopsticks kept going to try other things. The fish with pickled vegetables was delicious, the braised pork was delicious, the braised pork ribs with potatoes were also delicious... The cured rice in the bowl was so fresh that it made you want to bite off your tongue.

  Gu Xiangyi didn't say anything. A pair of chopsticks made him powerful. This was a skill practiced by the Gu family. When his family went to a state-owned restaurant to eat, they had to grab a table of food.

  Gu Xiangyi, for example, has five poor brothers in front of her. These poor brothers do not have any love from their brothers and sisters. If they want to "snatch food" from under the chopsticks of the poor brothers, her eyes and skills are also trained!

  Gu Xiangyi is also an expert at grabbing food in the Gu family.

  So the food on the court disappeared so quickly that Gu Sheng couldn't stand it anymore. He put a few chopsticks into Zhan Aiping's bowl and said, "Hey, Gu Xiangyi, do you have the consciousness to be a guest? Save some for your sister-in-law."

  Zhan Aiping was still slowly drinking Cordyceps Flower Chicken Soup. The soup was delicious, the Cordyceps Flowers in it were sweet and crispy, and the chicken was especially fresh and sweet.

  This local chicken is not good at all. The chicken is almost separated from the bones. There is no need to bite. It seems that with just such a gentle suction, the loose chicken can be sucked out, and the sweet meat melts on the lips and tongue.

  Zhan Aiping drank the soup without being in a hurry and scooped a spoonful of diced carrots, peas, corn, and ham into her bowl. She specifically asked Meng Xiaoyun to exchange for a pound of ham meat.

  There were three rice cooks in the place, but now she was the one at the disadvantage. She was used to chewing her food carefully, and when Gu Sheng ate with her, he always gave way to her, so she didn't have the consciousness to grab the food.

  Gu Xiangyi was stunned: "I, I... a guest?"

  Now she has become a guest at her brother-in-law's house.

  "Brother, you said this yourself before, eating is like fighting, whoever wins wins!" Comrade Gu Xiaomei said plausibly.

  Zhan Aiping smiled and said, "Let her eat. Look at this child. She has been hungry for several days."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..." Speaking of which, she was really miserable. She ate the food cooked by her mother and even ate the box lunches on the train. If it wasn't for the sake of protecting her face as a lady, she would have bought two box lunches. .

  --But sorry! ! !

  Most adult men only buy one lunch box.

  Gu Sheng put another piece of braised pork into his wife's bowl, "Okay, let her eat it. Anyway, it is a rare opportunity for her to taste my wife's cooking."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..." This man deserves a beating!

  "Sister Pingping is my sister-in-law!"

  Gu Sheng: "If it weren't for me, could she be your sister-in-law?"

  Zhan Aiping gave him a piece of food with chopsticks: "Eat yours and stop bickering."

  Gu Sheng smiled and said honestly: "I listen to my wife."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Who was the person who vowed to take care of Sister Pingping?

  And who is this person in front of me?

  After finishing the meal, Gu Sheng put away the dishes, Zhan Aiping wiped the table, and Gu Sheng went to wash the dishes. But Gu Xiangyi, who had nothing to do, finally felt a little conscious about being a guest.

  Gu Xiangyi looked at her sister-in-law and then at her brother. She felt a blockage in her heart. There was no need to ask any more questions. The intimacy and tacit understanding between their eyebrows completely excluded her, as if they were... Call her a redundant.

  So envious!

  Gu Xiangyi thought to herself: I want to become my biological brother, and I also want to marry a beautiful wife who can cook and heal diseases!

  --They are still childhood sweethearts! The objects allocated by the state!

  Gu Xiangyi dragged the small stool in front of Gu Sheng and stared at him washing the dishes. Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows: "What? Are you envious? You come and wash the dishes."

  Gu Xiangyi: "...Brother, do you wash the dishes at home every day? How do you do such a virtuous thing despite the cold-faced instructor's face? You seem to be washing the dishes quite cleanly."

  Gu Sheng said indifferently: "Your sister-in-law cooks, I wash the dishes and distribute them appropriately."

  "I heard that many male soldiers are the boss at home. Don't you have that ambition?"

  Gu Sheng turned around and said: "Daughter-in-law, come and arrest us. There is a traitor here who maliciously incites revolution--"

  "Brother!" Gu Xiangyi called him: "Why do you have the same moral character as our father?"

  He looks majestic outside, but is a complete coward in front of his wife.

  "The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked." Gu Sheng said expressionlessly: "Do you know now how crooked I am?"

  "It's all your father's good start."

  Gu Xiangyi: "...Isn't my dad your dad?"

  Zhan Aiping had already simply cleaned up the stove. She came over to wash her hands and said, "What are you two brothers and sisters arranging for me?"

  Gu Xiangyi complained: "Sister-in-law, I am very jealous of him now. He got an advantage and behaved well. If he talks again, I can't help but use a water gun to water him. Sister-in-law, if you remember when you were a child, you took me to use a water gun to water him."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Gu Sheng: "Now your sister-in-law is on my side."

  Gu Xiangyi said harshly: "My dad told me to call my brother-in-law immediately as soon as I arrive at my brother-in-law's house. Now you two tell me whether you want me to tell lies or the truth."

  "Comrade Zhan Aiping, don't say anything. Comrade Gu Sheng, let me remind you first. Now I am jealous to death. If my dad knew about it, he would be even more jealous of you. If I just dare to use a water gun to feed you, my dad would probably strangle you to death!"

  "You are so good at showing off your ambitions before you suppress them. You are a member of the Gu family, but you hid the secret from us to enjoy the good life! You are the sinner of the Gu family! You betrayed us and lived a good life first!"

  Thinking about her four bachelor brothers, Gu Xiangyi felt bitter tears streaming down her face. The fifth brother lived a warm, sweet and happy life alone with his wife, and they were still four bachelors.

  This guy is also very good at making a fortune in a low voice, pretending to be in front of his biological father, and deceiving them into thinking that he is living a "war-torn" life.

  Gu Sheng: "Read less comic books and take out your things."

  Zhan Aiping: "..." I feel like I deserve a beating.

  Gu Xiangyi was desperate and took out a thick envelope and gave it to Zhan Aiping: "I won't give it to you, I'll give it to my sister-in-law."

  "You live a life of luxury and entertainment, and we still have to pay you. Congratulations on your wedding. My heart aches for your sister now." Gu Xiangyi felt that she should not come on this trip. Someone pretended to be a wolf with a big tail. It made them think that he was living a hard life, and they couldn't help but sympathize "somewhat" with him.

  "My parents got a lot of cloth tickets for my sister-in-law. They are not for making clothes for you, but for sister-in-law Pingping!"

  Gu Sheng was in a very good mood at the moment. He smiled and said to Zhan Aiping: "Daughter-in-law, you see, this is called making a fortune silently."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Gu Sheng laughed at her: "Little sister, you probably won't be able to get a husband like me in the future. If you don't like that Dr. Wu, and you still come all the way here for him, then you will be in trouble."

  "From now on, he won't pay his salary. You will cook the food, wash the dishes, sweep the floor...you will do all the housework."

  Gu Sheng sighed: "Your brother and your sister-in-law will definitely give them more in the future. It's too miserable, my little sister."

  Zhan Aiping kicked him: "You should stop saying a few words."

Gu Xiangyi: "My brother deserves a beating so much. Sister-in-law, you married him because you were blind. "

  "Your sister -in -law is good -looking, better than your eyes. Your brother and I like your sister -in -law, and you like it since childhood." Gu Sheng laughed very much: "As long as your brother is at home, I can't bear to do anything, I help her wash the dishes, I help her do the laundry."

  "She took care of me so well. My wife asked me to go east, but I didn't dare to go west. My wife asked me to go west, but I didn't dare go east -"

  Gu Xiangyi: "I won't listen, I won't listen, I won't listen..."

  Gu Sheng: "Can you marry a husband like me in the future?"

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Gu Xiangyi likes Dr. Wu. Before Zhan Aiping, she had thought that outsiders couldn't persuade others about things like relationships. The more they tried to persuade her, the more counterproductive they would be. Now it seems that this is not necessarily the case, because of someone's ability to talk with poison. It's really a bit strong.

  After a while, Gu Sheng actually helped Zhan Aiping wash clothes in front of Gu Xiangyi. He also deliberately waited for Gu Xiangyi and the brother and sister washed clothes together. Gu Xiangyi had been on the road these two days and had to change a lot of clothes. She was too embarrassed to let others wash it, so of course she washed it herself.

  Her stinky brother also washed clothes slowly in front of her.

  Gu Sheng: "Are you envious? I'll help your sister-in-law wash clothes."

  Gu Xiangyi chuckled: "Let me tell you two, I'm not envious, I'm not bitter."

  "My brother's aggressive tactics are of no use to me."

  Zhan Aiping thought it was fun, so she brought a basin of warm water and joined the battlefield. She wrung out the towel and wiped Gu Sheng's face with her own hands.

  Gu Sheng gave Gu Xiangyi a look.

  Gu Xiangyi: "Sister-in-law, your gentle policy is useless..."

  "It's useless if it's useless." Zhan Aiping bent down and pinched Gu Sheng's shoulders: "Are you tired? I think your recent training tasks are quite heavy..."

  "fine."

  Zhan Aiping whispered in his ear: "Go back to the room and I will give you a massage."

  Gu Sheng turned to Gu Xiangyi and said, "Turn your head and don't look."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Gu Sheng kissed his wife's face, and the couple gathered together to whisper.

  Gu Xiangyi thought while washing, it was indeed his brother and sister-in-law, they were in the same group.

  At night, Gu Xiangyi was placed in the study room for the night. Gu Sheng and his wife slept in another bedroom. Gu Xiangyi sat on the bamboo bed. She looked at the scene in the study room. The room was not big. There was a bamboo bed for enjoying the coolness. It's very cool up there, but it makes a squeaking sound when you turn over.

  In addition to the bamboo bed, there were tables, bookshelves, and a sewing machine. Oh my god, they really had a sewing machine at home. Could the clothes her brother was wearing really be made by her sister-in-law?

  Gu Xiangyi couldn't help but sit in front of the sewing machine and look left and right.

  She saw the rags and some packed drawings. Gu Xiangyi couldn't help but pick up the drawings and look through them. It was her brother's handwriting on them, which he drew one stroke at a time.

  He painted a dress for his sister-in-law.

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Unable to explain what she felt, Gu Xiangyi stopped reading. She turned to look at the bookshelf aside. The bookshelf was filled with medical books written by her sister-in-law Zhan Aiping. There were really many medical books on the shelf, so Gu Xiangyi took down one at random. Look through.

  There was a piece of paper in the medical book. Gu Xiangyi opened it and saw that it was a sketch. The sketch was of Zhan Aiping in a white coat. The brushstrokes of the painting were very delicate, but it seemed as if he had picked it up with his own hands. The characters in the painting are vividly depicted.

  Gu Xiangyi thought, would it be great to be able to draw?

  --The love in the painting cannot be hidden.

  Gu Xiangyi paused her fingers, recalling just now, she thought that the love in her eyes could not be hidden.

  Gu Xiangyi thought that his brother and sister-in-law were too powerful. They had been flirting in front of their noses for so many years.

  "..."

  Gu Xiangyi's eyes moved. She stepped lightly and quietly walked to the corner. She clung to the wall like a spider, trying to hear what was going on next door.

  She listened for a while and heard the sound of men and women arguing.

  This man and woman were so quarrelsome. Gu Xiangyi listened intently to their quarrel, but the sound that came through was already very weak. Only by listening carefully could he hear a few words.

  What are they arguing about?

  This is too noisy.

  Gu Xiangyi listened for a while, then she didn't want to listen anymore, so she closed her eyes and went to sleep. The sound from the house next door also disappeared.

  *

  Early the next morning, when Gu Xiangyi got up, her brother Gu Sheng had already disappeared, but her sister-in-law Zhan Aiping was still there. She made her a bowl of hot and sour rice noodles, snow-white rice noodles, red chopped peppers, and green chopped green onions. It had a spicy and sour aroma, and was sprinkled with white sesame seeds. Gu Xiangyi paired it with boiled eggs and finished the soup together.

  Zhan Aiping also eats a lot. She likes to eat hot and sour food these two days.

  "Sister-in-law, you're not going to work today?"

  "Well, I don't go to work, I have to change shifts with others." This is the advantage of working in a rural hospital. I work seventeen or eighty days a month, which is about the same as one day on the job and one day off. It's just that I am a little tired when I work the night shift, but the night shift is not During surgery, when there are no patients at night, I still sleep until dawn. I am on night shift, not on guard duty.

  Rural hospitals don't even have wards or inpatient departments, and there's no need to check on patients at night.

  Gu Xiangyi asked: "Sister-in-law, why are you willing to work in a rural hospital?"

  "Wherever you go to work, you don't always treat people." A doctor's duty is to save lives and heal the wounded, regardless of high or low, even animals. Zhan Aiping feels very happy when she treats animals.

  Because she really felt that she had alleviated the pain for it, which made her feel a sense of accomplishment in her career.

  When she was young, she wanted to be the most famous doctor in the country. She held herself to high standards in everything, but such strictness made her burdened with too much and made her even more helpless.

  Now Zhan Aiping's mood is no longer as high-spirited as before. When patients come to seek medical treatment, she will treat them and do her best.

  Zhan Aiping also has current plans. After treating the villagers during this period, she feels that it is more important to promote basic health knowledge, prevent infectious diseases, and prevent malaria than to treat difficult and complicated diseases. These are meaningful things for children to do to popularize physiological knowledge.

  "Are you going to report to the military hospital today?"

  "Yeah." Gu Xiangyi was very excited. She was going to work in a strange place.

  "Sister-in-law, I'm going to call my dad later. Do you want to eavesdrop?"

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "You go ahead and fight, I won't eavesdrop."

  Gu Xiangyi can only regret.

  "I'm out."

  Gu Xiangyi walked outside the gate and immediately saw a middle-aged woman. From the woman's posture, Gu Xiangyi accurately guessed that she might be a female director.

  Because she smells too strong of a female director.

  Li Yuxia Director Li caught He Lingling: "You two had a fight again yesterday?"

  "It's been a while since your neighbor Gu moved here, but I haven't seen them blushing. You two quarrel every day, are you blushing?"

  He Lingling: "Hitting is intimacy, scolding is love."

  Gu Xiangyi: "?"

  "The couple had a fight at the head of the bed and ended at the end of the bed. Xie Shu and I have reconciled."

  Li Yuxia: "...I'm too lazy to talk about you two. There is a pair of good role models next door to you. Let's learn more from them."

  When it comes to the family next door, they get along so well. Li Yuxia also murmurs in her heart, thinking that it's good that these childhood sweethearts grew up together. The two are so familiar that they are now husband and wife, and they don't even have to quarrel.

  He Lingling: "I--"

  She was about to say something when she caught a glimpse of Gu Xiangyi. Li Yuxia also noticed Gu Xiangyi. Li Yuxia asked, "Who are you? I've never seen you before."

  Gu Xiangyi said: "I'm here to visit relatives. Gu Sheng is my brother and Zhan Aiping is my sister-in-law. Well, that's my brother's and sister-in-law's house."

  "Sister-in-law, you were the one who was quarreling yesterday. As soon as I heard your voice, I felt it was very familiar."

  "Do you two quarrel every day?"

  Li Yuxia: "..." This little girl spoke very recklessly.

  He Lingling's face turned red: "..."

  "Don't you feel that the more noisy you are, the more affectionate you become? My brother and my sister-in-law used to fight a lot when we were young. Hitting means kissing, scolding means loving, right?"

  Li Yuxia: "..." That's right.

  He Lingling changed the subject and said: "Hey, this little sister Gu, you are Zhan Aiping's sister-in-law, and you also grew up together?"

  For such an outspoken and difficult sister-in-law, Zhan Aiping probably needs a drink.

  When she heard the word "sister-in-law," Li Yuxia's eyes lit up. "Sister-in-law, it's difficult to deal with my sister-in-law. There are always some problems between the sister-in-law and the Gu family next door. Is there going to be a quarrel?"

  She is familiar with mediating conflicts between aunts and sisters!

  "Yes, I grew up with my brother and sister-in-law."

  Li Yuxia quickly asked: "How is your relationship with your sister-in-law?"

  Gu Xiangyi: "I have a great relationship with my sister-in-law!"

  Li Yuxia's eyes widened: "!"

  He Lingling's eyes widened: "?!"

  "My sister-in-law is so beautiful. What kind of luck did my brother have to marry my sister-in-law? My sister-in-law can make clothes and she can cook. She is still a college student. You don't know that my sister-in-law had very good grades when she was a child. Yes, she is very smart..." Gu Xiangyi talked a lot, and when she mentioned her sister-in-law, she couldn't help but brag.

  "My brother used to be such a difficult person, but he actually helped my sister-in-law wash clothes with his own hands, he also washed the dishes, and he even painted my sister-in-law's portrait..." Gu Xiangyi finished speaking in one breath, and she felt much more comfortable.

  Gu Xiaomei said that the two people in front of her looked at each other.

  Li Yuxia forced herself to hold back the corner of her mouth that wanted to twitch, and winked at He Lingling: "Listen, listen, the Gu family next door are really a model couple, you and Xiao Xie really need to learn from them. "

  He Lingling: "..." She wondered why this sister-in-law didn't act according to common sense.

  Gu Xiangyi said: "Although my brother is not decent in other respects, he is indeed a good husband."

  Li Yuxia: "Yes, yes, you, little girl, are right. Everything will be well with the family."

  Gu Xiangyi said goodbye to the two of them and went to call his father, Gu Ze'an.

  When the call was connected, Gu Xiangyi shouted directly: "Dad, I have been staying at my brother and sister-in-law's house for a day."

  Gu Ze'an on the other end of the phone was extremely curious: "How is it?"

  "Do you want to hear lies or do you want to hear the truth?" Gu Xiangyi felt that her own father probably wouldn't believe that she was telling the truth.

  Gu Ze'an: "..."

  "You tell the truth and lies together."

  "The lie is - my brother has taken care of my sister-in-law Pingping, and the truth is - my sister-in-law Pingping has taken care of my brother. My little brother is now deeply loved by you. He is afraid that Wife, he is henpecked. If his wife asks him to go east, he will not dare to go west. If his wife asks him to go west, he will not dare to go east."

  Gu Ze'an: "...You also want to piss me off to death?"

  Not a single word of truth came out of his mouth, and he kept getting more and more outrageous.

  "Is your fifth brother that kind of person?"

  "Did your brother and sister-in-law teach you to be reckless?"

  Gu Xiangyi: "You don't know yet, but my brother is almost becoming the best imitation husband of their family."

  Of course, these words were embellished by Gu Xiangyi. From her perspective in the past two days, compared with her brother and sister-in-law from the house next door, her brother could indeed be an imitation husband.

  Gu Ze'an: "Why don't you tell me that the sun is rising in the west, and your brother can become an imitation husband. If they don't fight, I will be Amitabha."

  Gu Xiangyi: "A couple fights at the head of the bed and fights at the end of the bed. Don't you understand this?"

  Gu Ze'an: "Tell me the truth."

  "Dad, don't worry, I think you will have a grandson soon."

  "My brother said that the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked. Now he is crooked just like you."

  Gu Ze'an: "..."

  He doesn't want these children anymore!

  After hanging up the phone, Gu Ze'an wandered back and forth in the room alone. When Qin Ying came back from shopping for groceries, she saw that his face was full of sadness at one moment, and happy and cheerful at the other. He almost became a hermaphrodite.

  Qin Ying put down the dishes and asked him casually: "You haven't received Xiangyi's call yet?"

  "I've already finished talking to her on the phone."

  "Really!" Qin Ying opened her eyes wide, "Why didn't you wait for me? What did you father and daughter say?"

  "How are Lao Wu and Ping Ping doing? Has she seen her brother and sister-in-law?"

  "Yes, I stayed at her brother's and sister-in-law's house for a day." Gu Ze'an said with a dull expression on his face, "Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"

  Qin Ying: "Why listen to lies when you have the truth? Listen to the truth."

  "The truth is that Pingping took care of the fifth child and made him obedient. Now he is almost becoming a model husband in the family home."

  Qin Ying: "..."

  She waved her hand, "Forget it, stop making up lies to deceive me."

  "As for their political commissar Zhang, his wife is the director of women's affairs. I called them there..." Gu Ze'an paused and said, "His wife said it was indeed true."

  "His wife also said that it's no wonder they are childhood sweethearts. They grew up together, so they have a good relationship."

  Qin Ying: "..."

  Gu Ze'an said: "Then Director Li also said that our fifth son loves his wife very much. He helps her wash the dishes and wash clothes. He also painted her portrait..."

  "Really, really?"

  Gu Ze'an: "How do I know if it's true?"

  "Maybe we can actually have grandchildren."

  Qin Ying's eyes were filled with joy: "Then I'll go and have a look."

  Gu Ze'an was in disbelief: "What about me?"

  "Commander Gu, work hard. I'll go see your son and daughter-in-law. I haven't seen Pingping for a long time..."

  Gu Ze'an said coldly: "If you really go there, maybe you can meet your good son-in-law."

  Qin Ying: "What about Dr. Wu? He is indeed a good person."

  Qin Ying didn't want to marry her daughter, but she couldn't help it, even if her daughter liked it.

  *

  Gu Xiangyi packed up her things and went to the military hospital to report. She was really looking forward to meeting that person. That person was a male surgeon. He was excellent and very gentle-looking. Gu Xiangyi had wanted to see him in the hospital with her own eyes before. Wearing a white coat.

  They used to go to the same school, and he was a few years older than her. Gu Xiangyi had met many people, but she felt that he was different.

  Gu Xiangyi reported in excitedly, and Dean Xu even took the time to meet her. "Before you came, your dad called me and asked me to take good care of you. From now on, you can follow Nurse Zhang."

  "Okay, thank you, Dean."

  Dean Xu looked at her and hesitated to speak, thinking why she didn't mention her sister-in-law Zhan Aiping. The patients recovered very well from the several surgeries Zhan Aiping performed in the hospital. Dean Xu went to treat the three patients. I have checked this patient several times, and the more I look at it, the more... I feel a little regretful.

  I regret that my intestines are blue.

  If I had known earlier, I would have left Zhan Aiping behind.

  Gu Xiangyi followed Nurse Zhang to familiarize herself with the hospital. Even though she had a prominent family background, she still started as a young nurse, and Nurse Zhang did not give her any special care.

  "Nurse Zhang, do you know Dr. Wu Juan Wu?"

  "I know, Dr. Wu is operating."

  Gu Xiangyi happily received the clothes. She also had an assigned dormitory. The management in military hospitals was different from that in the army. They could go to and from work normally. She had just arrived to report and did not have to officially take up the post yet. Head Nurse Zhang gave her After explaining the basic situation, the rest was Gu Xiangyi's free time.

  There were people coming and going in the hospital, but no one cared about her.

  Gu Xiangyi was sitting on the waiting chair in the hospital, waiting for an operation to end, and saw the familiar person. He was wearing surgical clothes and a mask, with eyes on the bridge of his nose. He was tall, thin, and looked very elegant.

  Wu Juan obviously noticed her, and he frowned.

  "Doctor Wu, let's have a meal together in the hospital at noon." Gu Xiangyi was very happy to see someone familiar. She couldn't explain what she was thinking about Wu Juan. Anyway, she felt very happy when she saw him. It was an honor to meet the old senior from back then.

  "I will be the nurse here from now on, and we can become colleagues."

  Wu Juan's face didn't look good, but he still agreed.

  The two of them had dinner together in the hospital cafeteria at noon. Wu Jun said something unpleasant: "The hospital is not a game for you to mess around with. Even if you are the commander's daughter, you are not qualified to mess around."

  Gu Xiangyi: "...why am I so messed up?"

  "I've made it clear to you a long time ago that I don't like you. Your stalking will only make me feel bored and disgusted." Wu Jun had very complicated feelings about Gu Xiangyi. She was outspoken and sincere, innocent and simple. Can easily possess things that others cannot possess.

  She has parents who love her, and she has five brothers. As the youngest daughter of the family, she grew up loving and pampered.

  Wu Juan was different. His father died young, and his mother tried every means to bring the two brothers and sisters together. Looking at the innocent Gu Xiangyi, and then looking at his sensible and obedient sister, Wu Juan only felt that his heart was blocked. .

  Gu Xiangyi's naivety disgusted him.

  What disgusted him even more was the words of the people around him:

  "Gu Xiangyi's father is..."

  "You're going to fly up a branch and become a phoenix."

  "The commander's son-in-law has an unlimited future. No wonder the higher-ups attach great importance to him..."

  Wu Juan has his own pride. He disdains the mercy of the commander's daughter. Everything he gets now is due to his own hard work.

  Gu Xiangyi's entanglement and the words of people around him made him feel angry and humiliated. He didn't want to be the commander's son-in-law.

  Now Gu Xiangyi actually chased him to Dian Province.

  Wu Jun was disgusted with her to the extreme, thinking about the "rumors" he might hear in the hospital, such as "You are attracted by the commander's daughter", "No wonder the director chose you", "Don't forget each other even if you are rich and noble", "You will have a promising future" "Limited amount" "People traveled thousands of miles to get here"...

  Gu Xiangyi's eyes widened: "I make you feel bored and disgusted?"

  She didn't expect to hear such harsh words. She blushed. She was very angry and subconsciously said: "Who do you think you are? I'm stalking you, so why don't you take a pee and look in the mirror?" , I really know how to put gold on my own face."

  Wu Jun was stunned: "..." In the past, Gu Xiangyi had always been a gentle and shy little lady in front of him, like a tame little rabbit. She would look at him and blush shyly, speak softly, and say nothing. A vulgar remark.

  Now she actually said such words?

  Gu Xiangyi himself was stunned now: "..."

  There are really not many girls who grew up in the compound who are gentle. Although Gu Xiangyi really hopes that she will become a gentle little lady, but--

  She and her brother Gu Sheng were used to being quarrelsome yesterday, and now Gu Sheng's words are still lingering in her mind:

  "Little sister, you probably won't be able to get a husband like me in the future. If you don't like that Dr. Wu, and you still come all the way here for him, then you will be in trouble."

  "From now on, he won't pay his salary. You will cook the food, wash the dishes, sweep the floor...you will do all the housework."

  "Your brother and your sister-in-law will definitely give you more in the future. It's so miserable, my little sister."

  "Your sister-in-law has good eyesight, better than yours. Your brother and I like your sister-in-law from the bottom of my heart. I have loved her since we were little."

  "As long as your brother and I are at home, I won't let her do anything. I help her wash the dishes and wash her clothes."

  "She took care of me so well. My wife asked me to go east, but I didn't dare to go west. My wife asked me to go west, but I didn't dare go east -"

  "Can you marry a husband like me in the future?"

  Gu Xiangyi thought, I'm so angry!

  Wu Juan bluntly said in front of her that she was stalking and that she was disgusting and boring. His brother Gu Sheng even laughed at her openly. Gu Xiangyi was really angry now.

  --Am I that mean?

  Her brother is so annoying, but he loves his wife so much, and her father also loves his wife so much, why should she be so mean, and she can't live up to her apparent gentleness.

  Under Wu Jun's surprised eyes, Gu Xiangyi walked away angrily.

  *

  Returning to the family courtyard, Gu Xiangyi saw Zhan Aiping, who was weeding the vegetable field. When he saw his sister-in-law, Gu Xiangyi felt aggrieved all of a sudden.

  She Xi Ai Ai told Zhan Aiping what happened just now: "Sister-in-law..."

  Gu Xiangyi didn't have many female friends of the same age. She came from a good family and had five brothers. As the only daughter in the family, her parents also favored her. Many people envied her and didn't like to be friends with her.

  She often feels that she is unlovable. Gu Xiangyi feels that she is not good at everything, so she will be reborn in a good child, even if she is in the same family. Only she was born after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the conditions of her family are getting better and better. Yes, she has never suffered anything.

  So Wu Juan didn't like her, and she thought it was right. Wu Juan was just as good as her brothers.

  The sister-in-law my brother found is also very good.

  Zhan Aiping hugged her: "Then what do you think? Do you regret it?"

  "Sister-in-law, actually I am here not just because of him." Gu Xiangyi thought for a while and said: "Sister-in-law, I also want to be an outstanding and independent person, instead of always being trapped under the wings of my parents."

  Her parents were very kind to her, but the thought of leaving her parents always lingered. She didn't want to always be taken care of because of her parents and brothers.

  Even though she was already such a big person, they all treated her like a child. Whether it was sincere or not, everyone supported her.

  They were too lenient towards her, as if she could be forgiven for any mistakes she made.

  For someone like Wu Juan who was aloof and disdainful of her, she felt that he was the real one, because he truly regarded her as Gu Xiangyi, not someone else's daughter or someone else's sister... She didn't deserve it Those are good.

  Zhan Aiping said: "You will become an excellent person and you will also meet an excellent person."

  "Three days apart, treat each other with admiration. As long as you are willing to change, you will become the person you want to be."

  Gu Xiangyi said nonsense: "Yes, I want to be like you and scare my parents in the future."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  "Little sister, you first determine your goal."

  Chapter 35 Goal

  Target?

  Gu Xiangyi was stunned by these words, what was her goal? She actually doesn't have a clear goal. She just wants to leave her parents and go to a place "full of freedom" where she doesn't have to be taken care of. She wants to become an adult, not a child who relies on others for everything.

  "Sister-in-law, I also want to enter the operating room!" Gu Xiangyi's eyes lit up. For anyone who studies medicine, the operating room is sacred. The surgeon wants to pick up the scalpel. Gu Xiangyi is a nurse, and she also I want to enter the operating room and become the right-hand man next to the surgeon.

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "Then you should take this as your goal. Maybe one day in the future, we can go to the operating table together."

  Gu Xiangyi nodded, she held Zhan Aiping's hand and was excited, "I don't know why I'm excited, but I get excited when I think about it. It's strange. I wanted to be a nurse before, and the reason was because of him - -"

  "It's that Doctor Wu."

  Gu Xiangyi nodded: "He is a surgeon. He performs operations on patients. I used to dream about being a nurse next to him, wearing surgical clothes for him, wiping Dr. Wu's eyes, and handing him what he needs during the operation. instrument......"

  "I have imagined this many times in my dreams."

  "But -" Gu Xiangyi frowned: "Although I want to be a nurse because of him, I really want to not just serve him as a doctor. Just like sister-in-law, you just said that you want to go to the hospital with me. On the operating table, I just want to be the nurse next to my sister-in-law."

  "Yes, I just want to be a good nurse who can cooperate with the surgeon. No matter who the doctor is... it would be even better if he could be the dean." Gu Xiangyi put her hands on her hips. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was still very Aspirant.

  She is ambitious.

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "I originally wanted to study medicine because of your brother, but your brother was just one of the reasons. The reason why I can really continue to study medicine is because I like studying medicine."

  "I can treat anyone."

  "You can't just treat a pig."

  Gu Xiangyi: "...you described my brother as a pig, aren't you afraid that I will sue you?"

  Zhan Aiping rubbed her head: "Which side are you on? Didn't you say you want to form an alliance with your sister-in-law? Why do you still want to eat both sides? You still want to file a complaint with your brother?"

  Gu Xiangyi snorted: "Obviously you two are allies now, and I'm just a faggot, falling to the wind. Whoever gives me more benefits, I will fall to that side."

  Zhan Aiping: "...little sister, you can't be a grassroots person."

  *

  Gu Xiangyi started working in the military hospital. After what happened that day, she was still very sad, but she didn't tell anyone. She thought to herself that she was already an adult and should lick her wounds silently and wipe her tears.

  However, maybe because I was too young, although I was sad, I was not too sad. In addition, I came to a new environment, and the excitement and excitement in my heart overshadowed the slight sadness.

  Nurse Zhang treated her very well, and Gu Xiangyi quickly integrated into the little nurse. She also met two friends. They made appointments to eat in the cafeteria together every day and chatted. Gu Xiangyi adapted quickly.

  Because her brother and sister-in-law were both celebrities, people came to her to ask about her brother-in-law Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping. Gu Xiangyi said that they had a very good relationship when they were young, and their relationship became even deeper after they got married. "I still think about it." I came to be my sister-in-law's ally, but it turned out that the couple was very exclusive and didn't want me at all, so I had no choice but to be a wallflower."

  Her companion, nurse Sun Ying, said: "I am so envious of this kind of love between childhood sweethearts."

  "It's like the kind of romantic love described in Soviet novels."

  "Shhhhhh, I don't want to talk about this now."

  "Many people have a few books hidden at home. Just look at them secretly." Sun Ying looked at Gu Xiangyi with a look that said, "You rarely see this."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  Gu Ze'an is an old-fashioned man. Although he has a good relationship with his wife, he is always afraid that his youngest daughter will learn bad things, so he never reads romance novels to her. In foreign movies where couples are intimate, the old-fashioned Gu Ze'an always says something "immoral".

  In Gu Xiangyi's eyes, love is a very taboo thing, and she is not too embarrassed to talk about the relationship between men and women.

  Even if she once liked someone, she didn't know who to tell.

  "It's true, many of us female soldiers like to read novels. We even secretly switch between them. I'll show you two next time."

  "Really? Lend it to me next time." Gu Xiangyi was very curious.

  Sun Ying asked her curiously: "Does your brother and sister-in-law really have a good relationship? One of them is handsome and the other is beautiful. They are a match made in heaven. The doctor Zhu Dongxia from our hospital said she was your sister-in-law. A college alumnus said that your sister-in-law had no contact with your brother when she was in college."

  "What does she know? She is just a classmate of my sister-in-law, and I am my brother's sister. I grew up with them since I was a child, and they were flirting in front of my eyes."

  "My brother can draw, and he painted a lot of pictures of my sister-in-law... When he joined the army, he always kept photos of my sister-in-law with him."

  Sun Ying was stunned: "Really."

  "I envy my brother and sister-in-law. Why don't I have a childhood sweetheart with whom I grew up?" Gu Xiangyi held her face in her hands. In fact, there were many boys of the same age in the compound, but she didn't have the skills of her sister-in-law Zhan Ai Ping. How to hang out with those boys.

  She followed her eldest sister Touzhan Aiping to work under her.

  In addition, she has five brothers above her, but no one dares to provoke her easily.

  Gu Sheng used to be a famous person in the military hospital. His sudden marriage has been talked about by people in the hospital. It is said that he remarried suddenly and the couple has no relationship. Many people in the military hospital are still looking forward to Gu Sheng's divorce.

  As a result, now my younger sister is here. This younger sister has confirmed with her own words that her brother and sister-in-law are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Gu Xiangyi is simple and innocent, but looks silly and easy to deceive. What she says is most likely true. of.

  Sun Ying actually didn't believe that there was such a kind of love made in heaven in reality, but after hearing Gu Xiangyi's impeccable words, she had to sigh: "Your brother is more affectionate than the male protagonist in the novel."

  In the eyes of nurse Sun Yingsun, Gu Sheng, the young male officer who used to be cold-faced and unattractive to women, gradually formed the image of an "infatuated man" in her mind.

  Zhu Dongxia also heard these rumors, and her expression was not good-looking. Zhu Dongxia didn't believe it at all. As Zhan Aiping's college classmate, seeing this beautiful girl fall, she thought she was better off than Zhan Aiping, but she didn't. Thinking about it doesn't hurt at all.

  Zhan Aiping married a man with a good family background, and they were childhood sweethearts. I heard that her father-in-law and mother-in-law liked her.

  No matter how bad she is, she has an excellent love-struck lover standing by to watch over her.

  "I don't believe that there is no long-term relationship in this world, even if..." Zhu Dongxia thought of herself. Her husband was very good to her. However, after talking about the partner for so many days, the original passion gradually disappeared, and what was left was love for her. The contentment of a peaceful life and the presence of each other.

  Zhu Dongxia simply didn't believe that they could still be together after twenty years of relationship.

  *

  In addition to a few nurse friends, Gu Xiangyi also knew a few doctors, one of whom was Zhang Jun. Gu Xiangyi chatted with him several times. Zhang Jun had seen Zhan Aiping perform surgery with his own eyes. He described the whole process in detail. Incredible skills.

  Zhang Jun has a talent for storytelling: "At that time, the patient was bleeding seriously. I was scared to death. I thought it was over. It was really over. This person was going to die by my hands..."

  Gu Xiangyi: "..."

  "After a while, a person appeared. She was wearing a mask. Her face could not be seen clearly, but her eyes were just like the moon in the sky."

  Gu Xiangyi: "My sister-in-law has beautiful eyes."

  "It's really beautiful and unforgettable."

  Gu Xiangyi reiterated: "She is already my sister-in-law, don't think too much."

  Zhang Jun said: "I admire her. I think a female doctor can be so unhurried and unhurried. I admire her very much. I heard that your sister-in-law was one of the best students in the Military Medical University."

  "That is--"

  Gu Xiangyi and Zhang Jun chatted together, and they had a very lively chat. Zhang Jun was a new doctor and had no airs. He made a lot of mistakes when he entered the hospital. He told Gu Xiangyi like a joke, and Gu Xiangyi listened a lot. I'm so happy, I think this little loser is very suitable for being friends.

  She had heard too many stories about outstanding people, and it was too stressful to get along with them. Chatting with Zhang Jun was easy, and Gu Xiangyi regarded him as an ordinary friend.

  Because he lived a fulfilling life every day, even though he was in the same hospital, Gu Xiangyi didn't think much of Wu Juan, and when he occasionally bumped into him, he pretended he hadn't seen him.

  Just because her brother Gu Sheng's mouth is too vicious: "Do you really believe her? A dog can't change its nature of eating shit."

  "Maybe if someone gives me a good look, she'll get close to her again."

  ...

  Her brother Gu Sheng's face was so handsome and unbeatable. Just thinking about it made his fist harden. He could attract all the firepower by himself. No wonder her sister-in-law had fought with him before.

  Gu Xiangyi has been in the military hospital for five or six days. Wu Jun originally thought that he would hear gossip between Gu Xiangyi and himself, but in fact he did not. All he heard was gossip about Gu Xiangyi's brother "Gu Sheng".

  "Battle Commander Gu and his wife have a very close relationship."

  "I heard that Nurse Xiao Gu came here partly to check on my brother and sister-in-law."

  "She wanted to work as a good nurse, but her parents didn't agree. Now that she knows her brother and sister-in-law are here, especially knowing that her sister-in-law is here, she feels relieved and is willing to let her come."

  "Nurse Gu is very serious."

  Gu Xiangyi had dinner with him that day, and the two of them only sat for a while, and few people saw them. They didn't say hello to each other after that, and others thought they didn't know each other.

  So - no one thought that "Gu Xiangyi came just for him."

  Gu Xiangyi never mentioned him. Thinking of his "self-love", Wu Jun's face turned very ugly.

  What made him even more unbearable was that Gu Xiangyi had a very good chat with Zhang Jun and several male doctors.

  Zhang Jun used the name "Zhan Aiping" and talked to Gu Xiangyi about her sister-in-law every day, "When your sister-in-law had the surgery, I could only help her on the side."

  "The dean even praised her."

  Gu Xiangyi also laughed at the side: "Zhang Jun, you are so funny."

  ...

  Wu Juan secretly overheard some people's conversations:

  "Do you know the background of the new nurse Gu?"

  "She is Battalion Commander Gu's biological sister."

  "That Zhang Jun seems to be close to her. I didn't expect that his medical skills are mediocre, but he is quite good at making girls happy. If he can take down Nurse Xiao Gu, he will become..."

  "Why don't we have that blessing? You don't know how to coax girls."

  ...

  In the past, Gu Xiangyi pestered him like a follower, and the people around him chatted all about him and Gu Xiangyi, which annoyed Wu Juan. Now, the person who is paired with Gu Xiangyi has become another man.

  That young doctor named Zhang Jun still wants to become the commander's son-in-law?

  Gu Xiangyi has a good family background, her father is a commander, her mother, her brother... Wu Juan knows better than Gu Xiangyi what her brother does.

  Gu Xiangyi was naive, simple and stupid. If Zhang Jun really knocked Gu Xiangyi over... Wu Jun's face turned pale.

  --As if someone had stolen something that belonged to him.

  Wu Jun found a moment and called Gu Xiangyi out in front of many nurses, "Gu Xiangyi, I have something to tell you."

  The remaining young nurses in the consultation room looked at each other.

  "Does Xiao Gu still know Dr. Wu?"

  "Maybe we know each other, maybe we are fellow villagers."

  "Xiao Gu asked when he came here. He should be an ordinary old classmate."

  They came to the lawn below the ward. Gu Xiangyi didn't want to talk to Wu Juan because his brother Gu Sheng's words were too poisonous. Why should he say that she "can't change the nature of eating shit"? , she passed.

  Is she that contemptible?

  Now Gu Xiangyi's feelings for Wu Juan are also very complicated. After all, they have been missing her for many years, and it is not easy to let go of them for a while. However, Wu Juan's importance in her mind has plummeted.

  She made many new friends in the military hospital.

  Here, it is no longer the same as at my parents' place.

  Staying with her parents, and being cared for by familiar uncles and aunts at work, Gu Xiangyi always feels like she is being watched. Now that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, no matter how powerful her family background sounds, people here will listen. , and still treat her as an ordinary friend.

  --The praise she received for her work is also true.

  Gu Xiangyi feels that she is making progress day by day. Compared with the relationship between men and women, Gu Xiangyi currently wants to learn to be an independent and excellent person and make more friends.

  Wu Juan said to her: "I apologize to you for what happened that day."

  "No need, Doctor Wu." Gu Xiangyi shook his head: "I'm really not stubborn about you, but I just think it's nice to meet a familiar fellow countryman here."

  Wu Juan: "...Let's have dinner together tonight as my apology to you."

  "No, no, no." The mouths of people here are as leaky as colanders. The young nurses and health workers like to gossip most. If she eats with Wu Juan, if the rumors get out, her brother Gu Sheng will want to Laugh at her.

  Her little brother's mouth was very powerful: "Yeah, I'm right, my sister is like a fly, and she can't even be driven away from others."

  Gu Xiangyi had already told her sister-in-law that she wanted to work hard and be an excellent nurse, but now she would be tempted again.

  She was embarrassed and lost her fortune!

  Gu Xiangyi is also a face-saving person.

  "Doctor Wu, let's forget it. Let's not be alone together, so as not to cause misunderstandings." After saying that, Gu Xiangyi turned around and left. She felt that her current life was very good and she didn't want to cause any further trouble.

  Wu Juan looked at her retreating back and felt that he had been greatly humiliated.

  If Gu Xiangyi wanted to use this method to attract his attention, he would never take the bait.

  Wu Juan didn't believe that Gu Xiangyi would give up on him so easily.

  He also blames himself. Every time when this happens, he can't help but give her a little hope.

  After taking two days off, Zhan Aiping had to go back to the township hospital to work for three consecutive days. She had just arrived at the hospital to take over her shift. A couple hurriedly came to seek medical treatment with a child in their arms, followed by a middle-aged man with short hair. women.

  The child was a premature baby, a little girl. She was born not long ago. The whole baby was less than two kilograms. It was so small that the man kept asking her to save the baby.

  The woman next to him was his wife, her face looked extremely pale, and she looked at Zhan Aiping in the same panic.

  The woman following behind was the man's eldest sister, and she was still shouting: "I can't survive. I can't survive. What's the use of keeping such a big child, a girl?"

  The infant mortality rate in this era was extremely high, more than 50%, and almost half died in infancy. The death of a baby was nothing to ordinary people.

  "I told you not to marry her, but you insist on marrying her. She is so thin that she is not fertile at first glance. She managed to lay an egg, but she is still a plague."

  The woman looked at the thin woman who had just given birth with disgust. In the eyes of country people, a woman with big hips and broad shoulders was better.

  "Which woman is as pretentious as she is when giving birth to a child? She can't carry it on her shoulders or pick it up. She can't give birth even after giving birth for a long time. Now she has given birth to a plague, and she doesn't even have milk... I gave birth to four children before, and before I gave birth, I still couldn't give birth. I went to work in the fields, I saw red, and I was still carrying a load on my shoulders. When I got under the tree, I turned out to be a boy." The man's sister was very arrogant, obviously very dissatisfied with this sister-in-law.

  The thin woman's face was very ugly, her lips were pale, and her hands were shaking.

  Zhan Aiping took the child from the man's hand and called Qin Yanfang over. The two made a small incubator for the child using cardboard boxes and clean clothes and quilts, and filled the infusion bottle with hot water to keep the child warm.

  Zhan Aiping had just delivered a baby to a woman in the town a few days ago. Knowing that her family had a lot of breast milk, she sent a man to that woman's house to ask for breast milk. The man hesitated and left.

  Seeing this, the man's sister raised her voice from the side: "Don't bother, my family doesn't want this child. If he dies in your hospital, it will be your hospital's responsibility-"

  "I know you just want to swindle money. The old lady said she can't live. Let me tell you, they don't have a penny."

  The pale-faced woman took Zhan Aiping's hand and tremblingly took out a handful of scattered bills and coins: "Doctor, I still have a few dollars here."

  The middle-aged woman on the other side had her eyes wide open and became furious: "I knew you were still hiding money--"

  She was about to reach out to grab it, but Zhan Aiping grabbed her hand. The woman found that she could not move at all. She looked at the young and beautiful female doctor in front of her with horror.

  She originally thought that the female doctor was young, timid and easy to bully, but she did not expect that she was so strong.

  Zhan Aiping said expressionlessly: "Get out of the way, don't delay my treatment. I have a bad temper. I used to be a female soldier. Do you know why I'm not in the military hospital now?"

  The woman was stunned, and the thin woman beside her was also stunned.

  "Because of my bad temper, I broke the legs of the patient's family members."

  The middle-aged woman shrank back: "Who are you fooling?"

  "Why don't you give it a try? I've been fighting since I was little." Zhan Aiping rolled up her sleeves and grabbed the middle-aged woman's arm. The woman suddenly found that her hand was numb.

  Zhan Aiping pushed her out. The middle-aged woman looked unhappy and thought she had some witchcraft.

  At this time, several people gathered around to watch the show. The middle-aged woman didn't want to cause trouble anymore and stomped away. She was afraid that she would have to pay for medical expenses.

  "Thank you doctor." The thin woman looked at her hesitantly.

  "Sit down first and let me check on you." Zhan Aiping had long noticed that something was wrong with the mother. She was having a fever and her condition was very bad.

  Zhan Aiping and Qin Yanfang had previously cleared out an empty tile-roofed room with a simple wooden bed in it, intending to use it as a ward. She helped the woman there, asked the pharmacy staff to take medicine and give her an infusion.

  This woman's name is Wang Xiaoyue, and her husband's surname is Zheng, his name is Zheng Tong. Zheng Tong brought the breast milk back, and Zhan Aiping fed it to the child. He muttered: "Doctor, can you live? Can you live?"

  The man who delivered the baby said that his wife would not be able to give birth to another baby. She would be so sad if she lost her only daughter.

  "If you take good care of it, you can survive." The baby was born prematurely and was a little jaundiced. Zhan Aiping asked the man to guard her and taught him how to disinfect and take care of the baby.

  At this time, the medical conditions were not good, people's health knowledge was also worrying, and the infant mortality rate was high. Related to this, the mother's delivery environment was not good, and the umbilical cord cutting of the child was not careful. The umbilical cord break in the baby was also easy to be infected by germs.

  Zhan Aiping treated the child again and checked her condition. After a day of waiting, the child was able to feed and was fine. She just hung on for dear life and survived like a resilient grass.

  Wang Xiaoyue's condition also recovered well. Zhan Aiping held the child in front of her. Wang Xiaoyue was happy and sad at the same time. "It would be better if he didn't survive, so as not to suffer such a crime in the future."

  Many girls don't know this before giving birth. They think that the most painful time is when giving birth. In fact, the most difficult part is breastfeeding the child. She can't sleep well day and night, just like dysmenorrhea. Some people are born with good physical constitution, and some people just have trouble with it. It hurts, and the inflammation comes over and over again, but there are people of the same gender around you who make sarcastic remarks and call you hypocritical.

  Saying that you never have dysmenorrhea, saying how easy it is to give birth to a child, saying that you are the child's biological mother, but you are so cruel and do not breastfeed the child yourself, what will happen to the child's poor health in the future? This is how many postpartum depressions come about.

  Zhan Aiping said to her: "She is lucky to be alive if she survives. She will be very lucky in the future."

  "It's her blessing that you and your wife value her so much. Take good care of her in the future and tell her to study more and see the outside world in the future."

  Wang Xiaoyue looked at the thin and small baby and said in a daze: "I will also let her become a doctor."

  "Let her go to college."

  The couple Zheng Tong and Wang Xiaoyue named their child Xuemei, Zheng Xuemei, which means that the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. They have no culture, but they only heard this sentence uttered by others. After experiencing the severe cold, the fragrance of plum blossoms overflows.

  Zhan Aiping taught Wang Xiaoyue how to identify herbal medicine, and also taught her how to take care of her body and take care of her baby after returning home.

  Xiao Xuemei was raised in the hospital for several days, and became stronger and stronger. Zheng Tong took Wang Xiaoyue and was discharged from the hospital. Before being discharged, he thanked Zhan Aiping profusely.

  The baby in the hospital left, and Qin Yanfang was still a little regretful. She thought it was quite fun to tease the baby.

  Qin Yanfang told Zhan Aiping, "When I get married and have children in the future, I will definitely ask you to deliver the baby."

  "It looks best if you cut the umbilical cord."

  "I think their craftsmanship is not as good as yours. It's better to cut the child's umbilical cord nicely."

  Zhan Aiping: "...You just want me to cut the umbilical cord. Then you can give birth. After you give birth, you can ask me to go in and cut the umbilical cord."

  "No, Pingping, I need you to protect my life. When a woman gives birth to a child, it's really a journey to hell. I'm afraid I won't be able to feed such a cute child."

  "Really, they all said that you cut the umbilical cord well and raised the child well."

  "You see, you have only been here a few days, and many people in the town are looking for you to watch the birth of their children. Hey, wait another year or two, and all the children born around here will have their umbilical cords cut by you."

  "When a group of children in town are making trouble, I will run over and shout, Dr. Zhan is cutting the umbilical cord over here, Dr. Zhan is cutting the umbilical cord over there. Look who is standing over there? It's you Pingping. My own child."

  Zhan Aiping glanced sideways at her.

  Meng Xiaoyun also ran over at this time and joked: "Xiao Qin, you are not even married yet, but you are thinking about having children?"

  Qin Yanfang said: "I am far-sighted."

  Zhan Aiping: "You are full of empty words."

  *

  Director Xu of the Military Hospital took time out to visit Yanxin Health Center that day. He felt very itchy, and he was very curious about how Zhan Aiping could stay in the township health center willingly if she had such abilities.

  Dean Xu has been waiting for her to regret it. Their hospital is really short of people. Zhan Aiping is a good candidate. If he can bring out a good doctor, he would really like it.

  Seeing this, Aiping can really sit still. She stays in the township hospital and commutes to and from get off work every day. She has not complained yet. Isn't she greedy for the scalpel?

  Dean Xu stood at the door of Yanxin Health Center. He coughed once or twice and put on a hat just to inquire about Zhan Aiping.

  Don't be alarmed first. If Zhan Aiping does not have a good time in the township hospital, he will "make some small plans" to "recruit" her.

  Dean Xu pretended to be a patient and asked someone from the hospital to inquire about the situation. The person he found happened to be Doctor Zhou, Zhou Zhonghua, who was eating noodles at the door of the house.

  "I would like to ask about the situation in your hospital. How are the conditions of your Western pharmacy here?"

  Zhou Zhonghua: "I'm from a Chinese medicine pharmacy."

  Dean Xu: "Then there is a new doctor in the Western Medicine Pharmacy of your hospital? His surname is Zhan?"

  Doctor Zhou said in surprise: "Who did you listen to? Dr. Zhan is obviously from our Chinese medicine pharmacy."

  "Wha, what?" Dean Xu was stunned. He could guess that Zhan Aiping might also know Chinese medicine, but she didn't want to learn surgery before, so why did she become a doctor of Chinese medicine now?

  Dr. Zhou praised: "Don't forget that Dr. Zhan comes from a big city. Her level of Chinese medicine is really good. Her acupuncture techniques are also good and she has cured several difficult and complicated diseases. I suspect she was born to study Chinese medicine." material!"

  Dean Xu: "..." Fart, fart!

  How could she be a good candidate for studying Chinese medicine?

  She is obviously a good candidate to be his apprentice.

  "Really, look at your face, don't you believe it? Don't look at Dr. Zhan. She is young. She has read a lot of books and is very experienced. The last time she set bones, I had to learn from her. "

  Dean Xu said with a dark face: "That's because your medical skills are not good."

  Dr. Zhou took a breath. What does it mean that his medical skills are not good? He chuckled: "Brother, I see that you have been very anxious and angry recently. You can go to Xiaozhan to prescribe medicine."

  "Really, you're very angry."

  Dean Xu: "..."

  He was really pissed off.

  When he saw Zhan Aiping, Dean Xu looked unhappy and stared at Zhan Aiping with a look of hatred.

  Zhan Aiping: "Dean Xu, why are you here?"

  Dean Xu said coolly: "If you regret it, come with me now."

  Don't waste your time in this rural hospital.

  Zhan Aiping said: "When I regret it, I will naturally come to you."

  Dean Xu: "..."

  Dean Xu thought that even though he was so humble, she still didn't give him any face, "You really don't want to leave?"

  "Dean Xu, you have come and gone, and you will stay for at least two or three years. You still don't know, but Dean Hao called back and said that this rural hospital will soon set up an operating room." Over there at the government We also pay special attention to the development of township hospitals. As for the township hospitals now, they may be able to develop into county hospitals or city hospitals in the future.

  This is a process from scratch. Zhan Aiping plans to stay and witness it. She also plans to write a series of "Surgical Operation Techniques in Township (County) Hospitals".

  After all, I have come, but I have to leave something behind. Zhan Aiping feels that she still has a little hobby of editing books.

  When the college entrance examination resumes in the future, she will let future medical students use the books she compiled.

  She also has ambitions to compile teaching materials.

  Make medical students tremble when they see her name.

  If she can't become a famous doctor, then may she be filled with peaches and plums all over the world.

  Dean Xu: "..." He thought to himself that this smelly stone really doesn't know what is good or bad.

  "If you regret it, you can still go to the military hospital to find me."

  *

  Dean Hao returned from studying abroad. As soon as he returned to Yanxin Health Center, he called Zhan Aiping into the office alone and talked with her for a long time.

  Dean Hao is a thin middle-aged man with dark skin. He doesn't look like a dean. He looks like a farmer in the countryside . However, he is very polite and polite when he speaks.

  "Comrade Zhan, although it is very inappropriate, the hospital still hopes that you can stay. You are a treasure." This time, Director Hao dared to apply to the superiors to expand the operating room and inpatient department. It was also the arrival of Zhan Aiping that gave him some help. The courage of hope.

  If their rural hospitals want to develop, they need talents, and they need talents who have seen more of the world.

  Zhan Aiping said: "How many years will I stay here?" She was not sure either.

  After receiving her words, Dean Hao was very excited: "Don't worry, the position of deputy dean will be yours from now on."

  Zhan Aiping: "..." Is this a painted cake?

  The news that Dean Hao brought back made everyone in the health center excited. If an operating room is built in the future and an inpatient ward is added, their hospital will expand and there will be many new doctors.

  What makes Qin Yanfang even more excited is: "Can we build a building in the future and turn the family room into a building so that we can live in the building?!"

  Zhan Aiping nodded: "Yes."

  Dr. Zhou teased Qin Yanfang: "Why don't you get married quickly?"

  "I'll wait until we live in a building before we get married."

  Dean Hao brought back the good news. The entire hospital had a dinner together. Several families cooked meals together and formed a big table. Of course, there were not many people in the hospital, only ten people, plus family members. Not enough twenty people.

  "In the future, there will be more than ten people in our hospital, maybe twenty, thirty, fifty or sixty!"

  "Including family members, there could be hundreds!"

  "It's going to be very lively. When the time comes, all this area will be built into family rooms, and a row of bungalows will be built here. The two rows of houses will face each other, and they will form a big yard in the future."

  Qin Yanfang was dumbfounded: "Huh? They are still building a bungalow."

  "Who can support a fat man in one go?" Dean Hao drew a cake for Qin Yanfang: "Look, these two rows of bungalows... you can imagine a rectangle, the length is the two rows of bungalows, this width, here, let's keep this here, in the future Build a building."

  "Xiao Qin, if you work hard for a few years, when our hospital can be divided into buildings, you seniors will definitely be the first batch."

  "Let you draw lots first."

  Qin Yanfang: "..."

  Zhan Aiping patted her shoulder: "Wait slowly." Sooner or later, she would live in the building.

  Dr. Zhou smiled: "Xiao Qin, if you have to wait until you live in a building before getting married, then you will be an old girl."

  "The operating room is built in a small two-story building, right next to the pharmacy. It is also surrounded by a courtyard, and there is also a small two-story ward building... It is separated from here to separate the hospital from the family room."

  "Build a bungalow here and hang a clock. When it's time to go to work, find someone to ring the bell to prevent you people from being lazy."

  People in the whole hospital were sitting together lively and casually, chatting about the future of the hospital. Although the current conditions are difficult, everything is going well.

  Zhan Aiping looked at the food on the table. She ate for a while and felt a little nauseous. After eating, she gave herself two injections.

  Zhan Aiping was sure that she was pregnant. She counted the days and determined that Gu Sheng would be free for a half day the next day and asked him to accompany him to the hospital and tell him that he might be a father.

  Although she was sure, let's let modern machines confirm it again.

  Gu Sheng came back late in the evening. Before Zhan Aiping could talk to him, Gu Sheng told her something: "That guy Wang Youli is coming over. Do you still remember him?"

  This guy got married in a hurry. He finished his business trip first, took family leave and wedding leave, and only now did he get married and bring Xiao Shen over.

  Zhan Aiping said: "He, remember, we met on the wedding day."

  "Yes." Gu Sheng smiled brightly, and he was very happy when he mentioned the wedding day.

  "He will bring someone over tomorrow. If you are curious, you can go and meet them. I should also be free to join in the fun." For some reason, Gu Sheng actually didn't want to join in the fun, but he caught up and didn't go. I can't find any reason even if I look at it.

  Zhan Aiping said: "You don't have time, I plan to go to the military hospital with you."

  There is no charge to go to the military hospital for examination and treatment.

  Gu Sheng: "Are you going to find my sister?"

  Zhan Aiping: "Can't you be smarter?"

  Gu Sheng: "...?"

  "It's a good thing you did yourself."

  Chapter 36 Learning

  --What good thing did I do?

  Gu Sheng looked at Zhan Aiping blankly. The two looked at each other. It was already dark. There was a light on at home, but it was not above their heads. Therefore, Gu Sheng could only see a faint halo lighting up his home. The face of the daughter-in-law, but her eyes were shining with light.

  Zhan Aiping kicked him, took his hand and put it on her belly, "Don't you understand? Silly thing."

  Gu Sheng's expression was very strange: "..."

  Zhan Aiping felt that his expression at that time was like being struck by lightning. Three souls were gone and six souls were gone. The originally unruly face was immediately replaced by a "silly dog" expression, and both ears were damaged. Upright.

  "You're going to be a dad, are you weird?"

  Gu Sheng finally regained his composure now. He was now looking at a strange treasure. He raised his hand, wanting to touch it but not daring to touch it. His voice was erratic: "I really haven't thought about it."

  It has only been a few months, and it feels like a dream. I have married the girl I like, and she is pregnant with my child.

  "Are you sure you're really pregnant?"

  Zhan Aiping gave him a disgusted look: "Is this fake? Do you doubt my medical skills?"

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  Gu Sheng hugged her gently. He really didn't know how to place his hands and feet, fearing that he would hurt her clumsily.

  "You don't have to be so stiff." Zhan Aiping smiled and hugged him back. She suspected that if someone stiffened like this, she would cause sore muscles and joints.

  "Are you happy that you are going to be a father?"

  How could the beloved be unhappy when she has her own child? Gu Sheng picked her up and said, "I am happy, but it came too early and I was not prepared."

  Zhan Aiping was speechless: "What other preparations do you want to make?"

  "There are so many medical books in your house, but I haven't had time to read more, especially how to take care of pregnant women, what can and should not be eaten, how to supplement your body's nutrition, and... what to do during labor. Take care of you." Gu Sheng thought about it and found that he still had a lot to learn. Time was tight. Now many books were put on the agenda. He had to study more on weekdays. Comrade Gu was very motivated: "Maybe I can still give you something. Deliver the baby."

  There are so many medical books at home, and if you don't learn them, you can't learn anything. As a family member of a doctor, he must have some medical skills to be reliable.

  Zhan Aiping felt that he was telling a horror story: "It is a quack doctor like you who has learned temporarily that makes people scared."

  However, Comrade Gu's learning spirit does deserve encouragement and support.

  "Don't be afraid, believe me, your fifth brother is quite reliable."

  The couple got together and got excited for a while. No matter whether they were iron rice or steel, they still had to solve the basic problem of food and clothing first. Gu Sheng asked his wife to rest, unbuttoned the two buttons on the collar, folded the sleeves, and planned to Cook with your own hands.

  "It really doesn't have to be like this." Zhan Aiping sat on the chair: "You don't have to treat me like a fragile porcelain bottle."

  It's not that difficult to just cook a dish.

  Gu Sheng said: "My good leader, you can just talk and give guidance."

  "Okay." Zhan Aiping was on the side guiding him on how to cook. Gu Sheng had also helped her before, helping her wash and cut vegetables and meat. These preparations were not a problem.

  He is only not as "whimsical" as his wife.

  At this time, every household is not particularly particular about cooking. Many people only have basic oil and salt seasonings at home. Unlike his wife, who has three kinds of vinegar, and also collects various chili peppers and dried chili peppers. When cooking, she even Put sugar in it.

  Each step was strange and weird, and the taste was unexpectedly good. Gu Sheng suspected that when she was reading medical books, she read a lot of "cooking" related books. After all, many medicinal materials are also ingredients.

  "I'll listen to your instructions on how to cook." Gu Sheng prepared the things neatly with his hands and feet. He wanted to cook the food himself.

  Both of their families receive subsidies for their salary, and they don't have to send money to their families. They don't have any other money-burning hobbies. Gu Sheng doesn't even smoke cigarettes, so their salary is more than enough to buy some spices and eat well. Normally, The vegetables and eggs you eat are free of charge.

  "Pay attention to the heat." Zhan Aiping instructed him to cook, but she deliberately bullied him. In the past, Zhan Aiping used to carefully mix the proportions of various seasonings when cooking. She always used similar proportions and never overturned.

  This taught the apprentice that the master would starve to death. She did not intend to tell Gu Sheng the detailed proportions, but only said that salt, sugar and soy sauce should be added.

  As for how much to put.

  Zhan Aiping said: You can figure it out yourself.

  "Daughter-in-law, how much salt should I put in?"

  "Appropriate amount, you estimate it yourself, don't put it too salty." Zhan Aiping laughed inwardly, thinking that she was just going to bully you.

  Several dishes cooked by Gu Sheng will definitely fail more or less, but fortunately, they both grew up eating in canteens. When the chef is in a bad mood, the chance of failure is also very high.

  As long as it's not too unpalatable, or simply overcooked, and tastes average in the end, both of them can eat it.

  After eating, she made this guy feel guilty and assured her that she would humbly learn from Chef Zhan in the future and seriously study her cooking skills. As for Zhan Aiping, she would pretend to comfort him - if she cooks it a few more times, she will get it naturally. .

  Zhan Aiping didn't tell him the ratio of water to cooking rice, but Gu Sheng remembered to add a drop of sesame oil.

  She gave instructions from the side, and Gu Sheng carefully cooked three dishes, brought them to the table, scooped out the rice for her personally, put down his chopsticks, and the two of them sat under the lamp to eat.

  Because there are enough ingredients at home, there are three dishes on the table, pan-fried tofu, tomato scrambled eggs, and another roasted potato. These three dishes are all sprinkled with beautiful chopped green onions, and they look delicious and delicious.

  Zhan Aiping raised her head and glanced at the lamp above her head, thinking that this must be the "lighting effect".

  Gu Sheng was very attentive: "Daughter-in-law, please try what I cook."

  Just taste it.

  Zhan Aiping thought to herself that it must not be as delicious as the one she cooked herself. She picked up a piece of fried tofu and unexpectedly found that the tofu was very delicious. The skin on the outside was salty and crispy, and the tofu on the inside was tender and delicious. Meat, like meat, is very delicious.

  "Daughter-in-law, how are you?" Gu Sheng waited eagerly for her answer.

  Zhan Aiping suppressed the shock in her heart and said: "It's okay."

  "It's not bad. Wife, please try something else." Gu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the bowls and chopsticks to prepare to eat.

  Zhan Aiping took another bite of tomato scrambled eggs and roasted potatoes. The more she tasted, the more she suspected that her sense of taste was malfunctioning, otherwise why would she find it delicious?

  How can this be? ! ! ! !

  Gu Sheng had never cooked food a few times, so he still relied on her guidance...

  Zhan Aiping didn't tell him the proportions of salt and soy sauce at all! ! !

  Why didn't he overturn all three dishes? Why does his cooking taste so delicious! ! !

  The more Zhan Aiping ate, the more she found it unbelievable. It was the first time that Gu Sheng cooked according to her instructions, and the dishes she cooked turned out to be more delicious than what she cooked. It was obvious that she had learned the craft for so many years, and she had seen several A divine chef...

  Gu Sheng tasted them all one by one, and found that they tasted pretty good. He said happily: "Daughter-in-law, you are really good at guiding me. The dishes you cook are delicious."

  Zhan Aiping said with a dull face: "I still want to eat your cooking tomorrow."

  "Okay, I will cook for you whenever I have time, but don't go hungry, eat something else to fill your stomach."

  Zhan Aiping said softly "Hmm".

  Zhan Aiping would never admit that Gu Sheng was more talented at cooking than she was. Gu Sheng was completely in the category of beating the master to death with random punches.

  He obviously just threw in the condiments, how could he mix them just right? This must be just a novice's bad luck.

  The next time he cooks, he'll definitely overturn it.

  After dinner, Gu Sheng went to wash the dishes. The couple only had a few bowls, and they finished washing them in a while. Zhan Aiping was studying the sewing machine in the study. Gu Sheng really had some spirit of study and studied her medical books.

  --He wants to learn how to take care of pregnant women.

  Zhan Aiping suspected that he had father anxiety.

  For patients with this kind of anxiety disorder, it is better to let them deal with it alone. Zhan Aiping thought it would be good to read a medical book, so one of them fiddled with a sewing machine and the other read a medical book.

  Zhan Aiping stepped on the sewing machine for a while, and when she got tired, she began to draft and write her own series of "Surgical Techniques". Zhan Aiping planned to sort out a basic framework first.

  The work in the township hospital is not busy now, and she is still pregnant, so she has free time to compile a book.

  One person was reading medical books and the other was editing them. Zhan Aiping turned back to look at Gu Sheng and thought to herself: Your dad is still your dad.

  There is no way he can beat her in medical skills.

  When the night got late, the couple took a shower and went to bed to prepare for bed. The two held each other tenderly for a while. Gu Sheng, the new "quack doctor" on the line, actually wanted to practice it.

  Gu Sheng suggested: "Let me take your pulse."

  He had just carefully studied the Hua Mai, also known as the Xi Mai, in Chinese medicine. It is said to be smooth and smooth, like beads rolling down a jade plate.

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  "Okay, you give it a try." Zhan Aiping extended her hand to him, waiting for his result.

  Gu Sheng was very presentable. He used a small handkerchief and towel to set up a pulse pillow. He really looked like an old Chinese doctor, who was very fastidious.

  "How about it?"

  Gu Sheng: "..." Why doesn't he have the feeling that beads are rolling on a jade plate? I just feel the pulse beating, and there are no magical descriptions in Chinese medicine.

  Gu Sheng turned to feel his own pulse, and he felt: "My pulse is more like a Hua pulse."

  Zhan Aiping: "...Yes, yes, I am pregnant and you have a happy pulse."

  "How about you touch it yourself." Gu Sheng handed her his hand.

  Zhan Aiping pretended to touch him, and said seriously: "Congratulations, Madam He Xi, you are happy, it's been three months."

  "Really?" Gu Sheng smiled, lowered his head and pecked her face, "Let me touch and see if it's really three months?"

  "Go away, go away." Zhan Aiping slapped his paw away and fell on his chest with laughter.

  Gu Sheng hugged her, with a pair of peach blossom eyes and a gentle smile, full of warmth under the yellowish light.

  Zhan Aiping met his eyes and was startled for a moment. She suddenly said: "I think it's too early for us to be happy."

  "What if this kid looks like you..." Zhan Aiping paused for a moment. Gu Sheng was so annoying when he was a child!

  Gu Sheng touched her head: "That's just like you. Let's have a daughter like you."

  Zhan Aiping: "It doesn't seem that good for someone like me."

  When they were young, neither of them was a fuel-efficient lamp. They were two naughty and trouble-making kings.

  Gu Sheng smiled and said: "Perhaps they are twins, one looks like me and the other looks like you."

  Zhan Aiping immediately covered his mouth without stopping. She stared at him, wondering if she could stop being so clumsy.

  "One looks like me and one looks like you. Do we still need the roof of our house?"

  Gu Sheng hugged her and looked down on her domineering attitude: "I don't believe we can't suppress two little bullies."

  Any little bully will turn into a little bastard under his hands.

  He is a professional at cleaning up thorns.

  "It's just right to have a pair. You watch and I pack them together."

  Zhan Aiping: "...Gu Sheng, Comrade Zhan hopes you can maintain your confidence."

  Gu Sheng patted his wife's shoulder: "Don't worry, old ginger is still spicy."

  "You always have inexplicable self-confidence." At this point, Zhan Aiping admired him very much, and this inexplicable self-confidence always aroused her desire to win.

  She high-fived Gu Sheng, too. Could it be that the two old bullies couldn't suppress the two younger bullies?

  "It's better to have one child." Zhan Aiping touched her belly, "If you have too many children, they will be noisy like the ducks outside."

  "Well, let's have one." Gu Sheng hugged her, "Thank you for your hard work."

  "As for you, you should also take a rest."

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  Comrade Gu felt uncomfortable. Within a few days of eating this meat, he would have to eat like a rabbit again.

  It's hard.

  Use contraceptive measures in the future.

  The next morning, Gu Sheng went out with excitement. He was very excited to be a father for the first time. He thought about accompanying his wife to the hospital for a check-up in the afternoon. As for Wang Youli and Li Youli... he was completely Forgot.

  It's okay not to watch Lao Wang's excitement.

  Zhan Aiping agreed to change shifts, finished her morning shift, had lunch in the hospital, and took a short lunch break. Not long after, Gu Sheng asked someone to drive to pick her up, and they went to the military hospital together.

  The couple were both a little excited. Although Zhan Aiping was a doctor and had already been diagnosed, it was always nice to have her husband accompany her to the hospital for examination.

  The two of them stood at the gate of the military hospital again. Gu Sheng looked at the gate with a lot of emotions in his heart. The last time he came back here, he was full of indignation, and he was accidentally arrested as a young man, like a big injustice, but this time For once, he was filled with excitement.

  He and his wife are going to be parents.

  Gu Sheng escorted Zhan Aiping into the hospital. Everyone in the military hospital was familiar with them, and many doctors had their eyes on them. Gu Sheng didn't take it seriously at first, because his wife was good-looking. He was also born well, and many people would take a second look at the couple.

  only--

  Gu Sheng felt inexplicably that the male doctors he knew were looking at him with a "strange" look.

  It's like saying: I never thought you were like this Gu Sheng.

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  Gu Sheng went to register his daughter-in-law, and a male doctor he knew appeared and whispered to him: "I never thought that you are still an infatuated person."

  Gu Sheng was confused: Infatuated?

  "Well done."

  After the male doctor finished speaking, he left with an ambiguous smile.

  Gu Sheng asked someone again to find out why he had become an "infatuated person", and then he learned about the good things Gu Xiangyi had done.

  Zhan Aiping went for a check-up, while Gu Sheng and Ma Jindao sat outside waiting, thinking about how to deal with that stinky girl Gu Xiangyi.

  He didn't need to take the initiative to find this girl. She found her herself. Gu Xiangyi, wearing a nurse's uniform, rushed over without stopping. She was excited when she saw him: "Brother, you brought your sister-in-law to see me, why didn't you tell me in advance."

  "Stop putting so much money on yourself, I'm not here to see you."

  Gu Xiangyi curled his lips: "Then what are you here for?"

  "You're going to be an aunt."

  "Really!!!!" Gu Xiangyi almost screamed, thinking that this was a hospital and she couldn't make loud noises. She covered her mouth. Oh my god, she was going to be an aunt, and she was going to have a baby. Niece and nephew.

  "I really want to be an aunt, I really want to be an aunt, I really want to be an aunt..." Gu Xiangyi was now more excited than Gu Sheng, her biological father, as she stared at the closed door and looked through the autumn water.

  Sister Pingping has a child, and her parents probably don't believe that they are going to have grandchildren.

  "Don't get excited first." Gu Sheng warned her: "Don't ruin your brother's reputation outside in the future."

  Gu Xiangyi: "How can I have it?"

  Gu Sheng said with a dark face: "Infatuated."

  Gu Xiangyi: "Isn't it?"

  "Don't talk about your brother and sister-in-law outside in the future, don't be too public." Gu Sheng didn't mind what he was said about, but he didn't like his relationship with his wife to become other people's after-dinner chat, and maybe others would take it. Study them with a magnifying glass.

  Even if he had to say it, he would have to say it himself. How could he let this little girl add fuel to the fire?

  "I know, I know." Gu Xiangyi felt a little guilty, "Brother, don't keep a dark face and scare the baby when your sister-in-law comes out."

  Compared with her other brothers, Gu Xiangyi is actually most afraid of her fifth brother, who is closest to her in age. The eldest and second brothers are much older than her and are very gentle and caring towards her. However, her fifth brother has never been kind to her. You're polite, but it's scary when you look cold.

  Even if she dared to yell in front of Gu Sheng, she was just trying to show off her power. She only dared to do it because Zhan Aiping was here.

  When she was a child, she only dared to call him "Fifth Sister" over "Ping". If Zhan Aiping was not around, she would be like a rat in front of Gu Sheng alone and would not dare to call him blindly.

  This was also the reason why Gu Ze'an and his wife felt relieved to send her here. Gu Sheng could cure her, so she didn't dare not listen to his words.

  --Fortunately, he married Sister Pingping.

  Gu Xiaomei can still continue to fight "Ping".

  She didn't want to be alone with Gu Sheng at all.

  When Zhan Aiping checked out, Gu Xiangyi excitedly went up to her. Gu Sheng grabbed the clothes on her back, ruthlessly pulled her back, and stepped forward to support his wife.

  "Little sister, you're here too." Zhan Aiping looked at Gu Xiangyi and smiled. Seeing her look like a little nurse, she became more and more satisfied.

  "Sister Pingping! I'm going to be an aunt." Gu Xiangyi's face turned red with excitement. She was even more excited than a biological father, like a "child's biological father".

  Gu Xiangyi was really excited. None of her brothers were married. She had always been the youngest in the Gu family. Now that she had a nephew, she was finally not the youngest in the Gu family.

  When the results came out, the three of them gathered together to look at the B-ultrasound images. They were indeed twins, with two gestational sacs. Zhan Aiping's family did not have twin genes. She stared at Gu Sheng, thinking that he had two twin brothers.

  Could it be that the crow's mouth really made the prophecy come true?

  Gu Xiangyi was super excited: "Two by two, I'm going to have two little nephews. Let's have a twin twins. Now I have nieces and nephews."

  Gu Sheng really didn't expect that two would come at once. He took out the B-ultrasound sheet and pushed Gu Xiangyi away, "I am the biological father of the child."

  The couple got together and watched slowly.

  "How stingy." Gu Xiangyi tutted: "I'm still my aunt."

  "It's quite lively now." Zhan Aiping didn't expect to be pregnant with twins. Whether it was a boy and a girl, or two boys and two girls, it would be... very noisy.

  All three of them were devastated by the news about the twins.

  *

  Before going back, Gu Sheng borrowed the hospital's phone and dialed Comrade Gu Ze'an. Gu Ze'an said gloomily on the phone: "If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't have time to chat with you."

  It's a shame that Qin Ying still likes to study cooking when her children are not around.

  "I'm here to tell you good news this time." Gu Sheng was in a good mood and didn't talk nonsense: "Congratulations, Comrade Lao Gu, you are going to be a grandfather, twins, two at a time."

  After saying that, Gu Sheng hung up the phone neatly.

  Not giving the old man a chance to speak, holding back and making him anxious, Gu Sheng raised the corners of his lips, turned around, and took his wife home.

  Gu Ze'an on the other side was really anxious and wanted to get angry. Is he going to be a grandfather? Or twins? !

  This brat hung up the phone immediately.

  Gu Zean called back again, but the person had disappeared. Later, he only contacted Gu Xiangyi. It was better for his younger daughter. She reported to him for a long time, and Gu Zean was satisfied.

  He is really going to be a grandfather, and he must talk to Lao Zhang next door.

  *

  Wang Youli brought his little Shen, Shen Liqing, to the family courtyard with a happy face. Although the journey was hard and bumpy, and it took a long time to drive on the mountain road, he finally reached the place.

  Shen Liqing stood beside him and breathed a sigh of relief. Along the way, she felt excited, regretful, and confused. She had traveled thousands of miles to come here for the so-called love, and she didn't know what the future would be like. .

  Shen Liqing swallowed. It was different from the hustle and bustle in big cities. The green here made people like it. Even though the mountain road was bumpy, people seemed to be walking in a world in a painting.

  The air is also very fresh. Take a deep breath and all the fatigue seems to disappear.

  "When I get settled, I want to contact a few friends." Many young educated youths from Shanghai City have come to Yunnan Province to work in the countryside. Shen Liqing did not become an educated youth, but she has several friends who have been here for several years.

  Like Shen Liqing, the two female friends were also literary young women who liked reading. One of them described dreamlike forest scenery and pastoral life to Shen Liqing, which made Shen Liqing indulge in it while living in a big city.

  She finally chose to be with Wang Youli, partly because of admiration for this elegant and outstanding male soldier, and partly because of this female friend, because the blueprint she drew made her long for Shen Liqing to muster the courage to come all the way here. Because of her lofty dream and because of the encouragement and support this female friend gave her.

  She wants to go to the plateau, she wants to see the snow-capped mountains, and she wants to enter the dreamy and fairy-like forest world.

  Now, she is about to start a new life.

  Shen Liqing exhaled. Along the way, she and Wang Youli got along a little unhappily. Wang Youli had written a letter of guarantee to her before, promising to quit smoking, but she secretly discovered that he still smoked.

  Shen Liqing said a few more words to him. Although this matter was not a big deal, it made her feel uncomfortable.

  But she was also very satisfied. Apart from these things, Comrade Wang Youli was really an excellent and considerate comrade.

  It is said that he knew a comrade named Gu, who was also newly married. He also brought girls from Shanghai all the way here, but he was by no means a good match. It was said that he had a good family and kept saying: "No betrothal gifts, no wages." , she does all the housework, I want to keep my wife in good shape..."

  You said it's okay to be busy at work. How can anyone blatantly want to be a "hands-off shopkeeper"? It's a new society now, and women can hold up half the sky!

  In other words, he is a stinky man who relies on his good family background.

  Shen Liqing thought that she must go and see what this smelly man looked like.

  As soon as the two of them arrived at the place, enthusiastic lesbians came to greet them. They were several military wives from the family home. The leader was the women's director, Li Yuxia, Director Li. As soon as Li Yuxia saw them, she immediately put on a warm smile.

  "Welcome, welcome, new military wife."

  Shen Liqing was infected by their enthusiasm, and a smile spread across her face.

  Wang Youli introduced her: "This is Director Li Yuxia, the wife of political commissar Zhang. This is Tian's sister-in-law. This is..." Wang Youli didn't see Gu Sheng's family, and he guessed that the couple had not returned from work yet.

  "Hello, hello." Shen Liqing was particularly happy. She felt that this was just like what she had imagined. The lesbians here were indeed very enthusiastic.

  Chen Yuan said in the letter that friends in the mountains are more enthusiastic.

  Li Yuxia saw the couple and nodded secretly. After experiencing the couple "Gu Sheng Zhan Ai Ping", she thought to herself that "people cannot be judged by appearance, and sea water cannot be measured." A girl from the city who is willing to come all the way here must definitely It was well thought out and there was no need for her to judge.

  On the side, Sister-in-law Tian said, "You have a good wife. You must treat her well in the future."

  "That's right." Wang Youli agreed with satisfaction, and he continued: "Xiao Shen has traveled thousands of miles to come here with me. Of course I must cherish her. From now on, at home, I will help anyone I can, and I hope that a few Sister-in-law, take care of her more on weekdays."

  Several sisters-in-law said: "Definitely."

  Li Yuxia on the side also nodded.

  but--

  The words sounded pleasant, but Li Yuxia still murmured in her heart, why did these words sound so familiar? It seems like I have heard it somewhere.

  A sister-in-law on the side said: "Don't just say it, if you become a hands-off shopkeeper in the future, you won't even help the oil bottle when it falls."

  Wang Youli immediately said: "How can I be a hands-off shopkeeper? I am rushing to do everything at home. I absolutely love my wife."

  "My daughter-in-law comes from a big city and is delicate. I will take good care of her."

  The sisters-in-law laughed: "Not bad, not bad."

  At this time, Li Yuxia's mind was like a thunder out of thin air, and a stern face appeared in front of her. Someone said similar words with a "heartless face".

  Li Yuxia: "..."

  This daughter-in-law brought her from the same place, and her husband said the same thing. Did they make an appointment in advance?

  "Comrade Xiao Wang, you are also a good comrade." Director Li Yuxia felt very pleased, and then added: "In the days to come, you should learn more from Battalion Commander Gu. You two are in similar situations, so you should learn from If he studies, he will definitely be the same in the future."

  Sister-in-law from the Tian family and sister-in-law from the Sun family said together: "That's right, that's right, Comrade Wang, you have to study hard with Comrade Gu."

  Wang Youli and Shen Liqing were stunned.

  Wang Youli asked: "Comrade Gu, which Comrade Gu?" Is there any other Comrade Gu in the family courtyard who is in a similar situation to him?

  "Gu Sheng! You don't know him yet?"

  "It's great that Gu Sheng and his wife are showing off their relationship. They are living a happy life now."

  "Xiao Gu is a good person. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a role model for you young gay men."

  "Gu, Gu Sheng?" Wang Youli felt that these two words were hot on his tongue. Did he really hear them correctly? "Is this the Gu Sheng I know?"

  "Yeah, how many more Gu Shengs can there be? His wife Xiao Zhan, Zhan Aiping, is a doctor."

  Wang Youli was dumbfounded when he heard this.

  Gu Sheng, a role model for young gay men? How many months have they been separated? Gu Sheng has become a role model for gay men?

  Apparently he even copied his wedding report.

  What did Gu Sheng do?

  Shen Liqing also looked at Wang Youli with great confusion at this time. Is the Comrade Gu mentioned by these sisters-in-law the legendary Comrade Gu who refused to hand over his wages and did no housework?

  Wang Youli: "..."

  "Battle Commander Gu loves his wife very much."

  "Yeah yeah."

  *

  As for the battalion commander they talked about, he was watching over his wife with all his heart and eyes. The couple chatted about two little bean sprouts, and it was Gu Sheng who cooked a table of dishes for Zhan Aiping to eat.

  The more Zhan Aiping ate, the more she wanted to throw the table.

  Why is it that the seasonings she adds according to a fixed proportion of grams are not as good as Gu Sheng's casual cooking? Why are the dishes Gu Sheng cooks so delicious?

  She didn't believe it.

  It was so crazy that Zhan Aiping suspected that the two children had given the silly father buff support.

  Why can he cook with just a flick of his hand?

  Wang Youli finished his work report to his superiors the next day and immediately caught Gu Sheng in the camp. Gu Sheng was surprised to see him, and then suddenly realized:

  "Old Wang, long time no see, you are here."

  Gu Sheng was in a good mood, and he smiled when he faced the former Lao Wang. He didn't like to smile much in the team before, but now he is really confused.

  Wang Youli glared at Gu Sheng in front of him. He looked at Gu Sheng up and down with a look that looked at a "liar". This guy looked very comfortable, didn't he? Compared with the time in Shanghai, I feel refreshed and have no burdens on my body. My face is so handsome that I can grab it for publicity photos.

  I heard that he has almost given up smoking now. It seems that he is under strict control by his "daughter-in-law". He has handed over all his salary and has no pocket money.

  Unlike when he was in Shanghai, where he always smoked. Wang Youli advised him not to smoke too much, but he still didn't listen. He sat in the corner smoking alone, obviously living a happy life, but he seemed to be worried about something.

  Are you being submissively controlled by your "daughter-in-law" now?

  "I want to ask you something, Comrade Gu." Wang Youli gritted his teeth: "If you don't hand over your salary, you will be a hands-off shopkeeper at home. Your wife will do all the housework, and you will have to keep your wife tidy... ...What did you do?"

  Just like the guarantee letter he wrote, it's all bullshit!

  Gu Sheng paused, then blinked: "Old Wang, this is your fault."

  "You didn't say it yourself before. It's not easy to be a military wife. How can we be a hands-off shopkeeper at home? Of course, those who can help can help."

  Wang Youli: "..." are the exact words he said.

  Gu Sheng hooked up with him and said, "That's the truth. Let's be good comrades in the revolution together."

  "That's not what you said before."

  "One moment and the other." Gu Sheng said: "At that time, I was really worried that she wouldn't marry me. As you know, the marriage report was filed too hastily and I couldn't get the certificate. I was afraid that my joy would be in vain."

  "You can see that I carry her photo with me, and you know that I have been thinking about her. Now that she has come to me, I can't treat her as my ancestor."

  "Congratulations to me, brother. At least the joy is not in vain."

  Wang Youli was speechless: "..."

  You are not happy for nothing, I am happy for nothing.

  This, this, this...Wang Youli thought to himself: Who should I ask to reason with.

  I originally thought that he was the biggest anti-revolutionary leader, but who knew that when he took off his outer clothes, the party flag underneath was brighter than anyone else. He was really the most successful underground party in the city of Shanghai.

  "Also, Lao Wang, I'm going to be a father."

  Wang Youli: "...I don't want to see you."

  *

  Wang Youli and his wife moved here, and Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping went to have a warm meal at his house. The warm meal was cooked by the couple themselves, so they were busy here and there. , and it was a bit unpleasant.

  Shen Liqing said she wanted to show her skills, and Wang Youli agreed. However, she found out that it was very troublesome. The new moving environment was simple, lacking this and that, and she was not familiar with the stove. Shen Liqing was also particular about cooking many dishes. Taste.

  It was not bad to eat. It was a big pot dish in the cafeteria. Because there was meat, everyone ate happily. However, Shen Liqing still felt a little uncomfortable. After all, she wanted to show off her skills.

  Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping, the young couple who eat rice, are just like two rice buckets. They are also very happy to eat. After all, eating rice is very happy and the taste is good. They grew up eating in snack canteens. As long as the food in the cafeteria is delicious, it also has meat.

  "Daughter-in-law, try this, it tastes pretty good."

  Because Zhan Aiping was pregnant, Gu Sheng pushed the wine away and did not sit down to drink with others.

  Wang Youli drank the bitter wine in his mouth and turned his head to glance at Gu Sheng, who was showing hospitality in front of his wife. Seeing them eating like this, they were quite happy. He thought that at least my wife's cooking skills were better than his.

  Everyone around said: "You, learn more from Xiao Gu."

  "Yes, learn more from Gu Sheng and see how he loves his wife."

  Wang Youli: "..." What a fool!

  Shen Liqing met "Comrade Gu" who was completely different from the rumors, and his wife. Shen Liqing didn't feel anything in her heart, but she thought that her daughter-in-law was so beautiful, she was a doctor, and she had grown up with her childhood sweethearts. , Husband and wife love is a serious matter. This Comrade Gu is indeed a good comrade worth learning from.

  From now on, Wang Youli must learn from him and follow Comrade Gu in everything.

  Similarly, Shen Liqing looked at Zhan Aiping and said sincerely:

  "Comrade Zhan, I will study hard like you in the future."

  Shen Liqing planned to learn the beauty of husband and wife, and when she met Chen Yuan later, she told her that she had really lived the kind of happy life that Chen Yuan described in her letter.

  Chapter 37 Songhua Cake

  Shen Liqing intended to make friends with Zhan Aiping and chatted with her for a few more words, "Comrade Zhan, when you first came here, was there anything you didn't feel comfortable with?"

  "The scenery here is so beautiful, like a fairyland. Can you take me around to see the scenery in the future?"

  "There's nothing I'm not used to." Zhan Aiping shook her head. She had a lot of experience, so there was nothing she wasn't used to. However, she reminded Shen Liqing: "The weather is getting hotter day by day. When you come here, you should pay attention to mosquitoes, insects, and snakes." , especially pay attention to mosquito repellent, the mosquitoes here are very poisonous, it is necessary to hang a mosquito net, it is best to put a layer of screen on the windows at home, and plant some mosquito repellent plants in the yard."

  There are many kinds of mosquitoes here. It is uncomfortable to be bitten. More importantly, mosquitoes can spread malaria. Common malaria, also known as malaria, can be cured. If you accidentally contract cerebral malaria, , the risk is very high.

  "Don't go up the mountain alone, don't go into the forest alone, and when you see beautiful streams and rivers, don't touch the water at will. There are leeches in the water that will suck blood."

  "By the way, you also need to guard against ants. Ants here are also very poisonous. Don't just stand around under the big tree, or you will be crawled by insects and ants accidentally..."

  "Oh oh oh." Shen Liqing nodded repeatedly, "I'll take a notebook and write it down."

  She's quite serious.

  She and Wang Youli had a bit of a couple-like relationship. The two of them were very sincere and serious in certain aspects, and there was no ambiguity in taking notes.

  After chatting with Shen Liqing for a while, Zhan Aiping found that she was a somewhat naive and silly young literary girl, quite cute.

  "I have homemade mosquito repellent water and anti-itch cream at home. I'll bring it to you when I have time."

  "Okay, okay, thank you Comrade Zhan."

  "There's no need to call me Comrade Zhan, just call me Xiao Zhan."

  "Okay." Shen Liqing took down a lot of notes. She felt satisfied. She thought that it was indeed the case. The most beautiful places in the world are often also the most dangerous places. Danger and beauty coexist at the same time.

  Thanks to Comrade Zhan for the reminder. With these preparations, Shen Liqing is more confident in her future life.

  Zhan Aiping also told her Gu Sheng's "Foodie Map" and told her that if someone had some supplies, she could exchange them with them.

  "Really? I also like soybean paste."

  "The sweet peas here are delicious. You must plant some in the vegetable garden. In addition to your own yard, you can also have a small vegetable plot."

  "Okay." What Zhan Aiping told her completely solved Shen Liqing's urgent need. She had just moved here and was lacking everything. But the little Zhan in front of her was just a spy.

  Shen Liqing thanked and admired: "Xiao Zhan, you know so much."

  "This is what our old man Gu told me." Comrade Gu is the real foodie and a living map.

  "Really?" Shen Liqing glanced at Gu Sheng and Wang Youli, thinking that Comrade Gu was very reliable. Comrade Wang didn't know these things.

  The more she knew, the more confident she became. Shen Liqing was looking forward to it when she heard there was a vegetable garden. She used to live in Shanghai, and her family's conditions were average. The whole family was squeezed into a small tube building, and the aisles were crowded and narrow. There is no own little world.

  She could only set up a table on the bed, read a book, or write letters.

  Now that I'm here, although I can't see the tall buildings in big cities, my eyes are full of green. Although these houses are simple, they have their own space, yards, and vegetable plots.

  Shen Liqing is looking forward to the pastoral life described in ancient poems of "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the southern mountains".

  After finishing the warm meal, Gu Sheng went back with his wife. Before leaving, he said to Wang Youli: "Old Wang, come to my house for a meal next time."

  "Okay." Wang Youli agreed immediately, thinking that he would also try his craftsmanship later.

  Gu Sheng and his wife left, and so did everyone else. Only Wang Youli and Shen Liqing were left in the room. They had some trouble this morning. Wang Youli drank some wine and was not drunk. He found that Shen Liqing was My son is in a pretty good mood.

  "That's the Comrade Gu I told you about. He is quite unreliable and a liar."

  Shen Liqing said: "I think this Comrade Gu is very reliable. You should learn more from him."

  Wang Youli sighed: "You don't know that he deceived me before."

  "That's understandable." Shen Liqing said, "I heard that he is an infatuated person."

  Wang Youli: "..."

  The infatuated guy who copied his wedding report?

  "I didn't copy your wedding report. I heard that I wrote it carefully all night."

  What else could Wang Youli say? He could only scold Lao Gu secretly.

  He thought to himself: Lao Gu, Lao Gu, you might as well be a beast instead of a human being!

  "It's right for him to be nice to his wife. If I marry such a beautiful and smart wife, then I will definitely love and pamper her every day. He is like a normal man. I like Dr. Zhan very much. She knows a lot. "Dr. Zhan is a college student with a high level of education. She comes from Shanghai, the same city as me. She has no airs..." Shen Liqing's heart was relieved.

  On the road before, Shen Liqing really regretted it. Thinking that she had traveled thousands of miles to come here alone for her dreams and love, she always felt a little lonely and scared. Now she met Zhan Aiping, and she was so approachable. They came from the same place. There will definitely be a lot to talk about in the future.

  Wang Youli said: "Gu Sheng is a beast - although Gu Sheng is not a good person, the wife he married is really good. It is right for you to socialize more with his wife and deal with doctors more in the future."

  "Yes." Shen Liqing nodded: "When everything is settled, I'll give Chen Yuan a call."

  She wanted to tell Chen Yuan that the days after coming here were really promising.

  The next day, Shen Liqing contacted Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan couldn't wait to ask on the phone: "Xiao Shen, you are here, how do you feel?"

  Chen Yuan's tone was very exciting. She really didn't expect that Shen Liqing, a stupid fool, would actually leave a big city like Shanghai and come all the way to this place where nothing matters.

  Shen Liqing, the educated youth in Shanghai, wanted to go back to the city. Shen Liqing was deceived into lameness.

  Chen Yuan was very proud in her heart. She had secret expectations. Why should she be forced to go to the countryside, while Shen Liqing could stay in Shanghai? When Shen Liqing heard about them, she even envied her in the letter that she could see the beautiful scenery. .

  Ah, I actually like this beautiful scenery, so come and see for yourself.

  Knowing that Shen Liqing was in a relationship with an officer here, Chen Yuan encouraged the two of them to be together, and even encouraged Shen Liqing to join the army, and encouraged Shen Liqing to have her future husband write a letter of guarantee.

  Shen Liqing was really too naive and stupid.

  Chen Yuan knew men very well, and she thought that the guarantee letter was all bullshit, and only a fool like Shen Liqing believed it.

  Shen Liqing just waited to regret her misfortune. She would pour out her bitterness to her in the future, saying how miserable she was and how regretful she was.

  It's a pity that the deal is done, and military marriages are not easy to divorce.

  Now that Shen Liqing is here, she should be starting to regret it, right?

  "Chen Yuan, I'm here, I'm so happy!! Really, this place is really beautiful! The sisters-in-law in the camp are very nice and take good care of me. Lao Wang and his comrades are all good comrades and they love their wives very much."

  Chen Yuan was stunned: "W-what?"

  Chen Yuan was stunned. She didn't expect that Shen Liqing would say this on the phone. She was very happy?

  "You feel good?"

  "Okay, I'm much more comfortable than when I was in Shanghai." Shen Liqing exhaled, feeling that the air here is fresh, free and comfortable, "It's really beautiful here, you don't know, Lao Wang and his comrades also have a My wife is from Shanghai and is a college student. She is very beautiful."

  Chen Yuan: "...You just arrived, don't think too much about everything."

  Is this Shen Liqing a fool?

  Does she really think it's good to come here?

  Did she really think she married a good man? Chen Yuan knows that some men are particularly good at lying to women, especially those who love freely, which is even more unreliable. Before getting married, they write various guarantees. After getting married, you will be a yellow-faced woman, and who will care about you.

  Shen Liqing's hard days are still to come.

  "You, be careful of the snakes, insects, rats, and ants here." When Shen Liqing saw the many insects and venomous snakes here, she was not scared to death. If she went to the mountains, she could also encounter wild boars and pythons.

  And the feast of insects, centipedes, scorpions...

  Shen Liqing smiled on the phone: "I know, I know, Dr. Zhan told me all."

  Chen Yuan: "..."

  "Chen Yuan, bless me. I am about to live the life you described in your letter, our pastoral song." Shen Liqing's voice was filled with anticipation.

  Chen Yuan thought to himself, Tianyuan, you are a piece of shit.

  "You, I hope you can still say something like this in a month."

  "Well, I'm busy now. I want to learn from Dr. Zhan. I want to clean up the yard. I want to plant vegetables and flowers in the yard. I also raise chickens and ducklings. I have to pick out chickens tomorrow, by the way. , I can also get a vegetable plot..."

  Chen Yuan laughed inwardly: "Go ahead and do it."

  There will be a day when you regret it.

  "After a month or two, Shen Liqing, I'll go see you."

  "Okay, Chen Yuan, I look forward to having you come to my house. Then I'll let you take a look at the yard I've tidied up and have a taste of my craftsmanship."

  "Okay, it's a deal." Chen Yuan thought to himself, when the time comes, I will see you cry in front of you.

  Shen Liqing hung up the phone, full of energy and looking forward to the nourishing days ahead.

  Zhan Aiping called her brother Zhan Mingzhao and finally contacted him. Zhan Mingzhao answered the phone lazily: "Sister, my dear sister, don't rush me, I'm practicing, I'm really I'm practicing, I'm working hard to get into the art troupe, I want to be an art soldier!"

  "You, you must be admitted to the Art Corps this time and set an example for your future nephews."

  "Nephew?" Zhan Mingzhao was stunned.

  "Yes, you are going to be an uncle."

  "I'm going to be an uncle!" Zhan Mingzhao blinked, very excited, "Am I really going to be an uncle? So soon!"

  "Yes." Zhan Aiping smiled gently: "You are going to have two little nephews."

  "Two, two!" Zhan Mingzhao almost bit off his tongue and choked on his own saliva. "Where's my brother-in-law? Let him answer the phone."

  "Your brother-in-law is not here."

  "Next time I want to call him alone, I must ask my brother-in-law to take good care of you. It's so hard to be pregnant with twins. Sister, you also need to have a good rest. You must call Brother Gu when you should call him. Don't be polite to him."

  "No, sister, just wait. I'll ask someone to bring you something in two days. You must take good care of yourself and supplement your nutrition."

  Zhan Mingzhao was going to be an uncle. He was so excited that he wandered around the garden like a fly. Several women gathered around him and asked him what was wrong.

  "My biological sister is pregnant, and I'm going to be an uncle. I was thinking of bringing her something."

  "Oh, I'm going to be an uncle. Congratulations. I'll have to send you some good things."

  Zhan Mingzhao exchanged a lot of good things with others, and kept sending wild honey, beef jerky, and rapeseed oil to his sister.

  Zhan Aiping told her younger brother the news of her pregnancy, and did not forget to call Zhan Bo. Zhan Bo was still frightened when he received her call, fearing that something would happen to his eldest daughter and son-in-law.

  "Pingping, what happened to you and Xiao Gu?"

  "Nothing, I just called you to tell you that you are going to be a grandpa."

  "Really, really!"

  Zhan Bo was stunned by this happy event. His daughter was pregnant, and she was carrying the Gu family's child. That was the Gu family's eldest grandson! He is also his grandson Zhanbo.

  Zhan Bo was so excited that he walked around the room several times. He planned to send all the cloth coupons for himself, his wife and daughter this year to his eldest daughter Pingping.

  When Zhu Jiaorong heard this, she refused: "This, this is not good."

  Usually it is the daughter who subsidizes her parents' family, but there is no such thing as a father who constantly supports his daughter.

  "Jiajia also wants to make two new outfits."

  "She's so old, she just needs enough clothes to wear her. He's her nephew, and he's a twin. With two of them, the little ones will need to make new clothes, and a few more."

  Zhu Jiaorong said: "Children, just wear old clothes."

  "How can this be possible? When you gave birth to Xiaokang, didn't you say you would make new clothes? My grandson must wear new clothes!" Zhan Bo refused. He just wanted to give his grandson the best. This But Gu Sheng's child, Gu Sheng is his good son-in-law, closer than his own son.

  Zhan Mingzhao was careless, and his younger son was pampered by his mother and had poor grades. Zhan Bo felt that he had to rely on his eldest daughter and son-in-law to give him a boost.

  "My dad is crazy!" Zhan Aijia heard that her new clothes were gone, and she was going crazy too. "My dad is so biased now, how can he be so biased! He is so biased! "

  "Zhan Aiping is pregnant, so fast. How come she got pregnant so quickly? Is she really pregnant with Gu Sheng's child? Isn't she a fake pregnancy?"

  Ai Ping and Gu Sheng have only been married for a few months now? Zhan Aijia thought the two of them had a fake marriage, but now they even have a child. Zhan Aiping is pregnant!

  Zhan Aijia's eyes were almost red with jealousy.

  "It shouldn't be a false pregnancy. It's not necessary. It's impossible to have several children out of thin air in a few months?" Zhu Jiaorong felt uncomfortable, "Since Zhan Aiping got married, he has gained a good son-in-law. You Dad became a stepdad."

  "Yes, stepfather!" In fact, Zhan Bo is indeed Zhan Aijia's stepfather.

  "How could my father do this? He is partial!"

  When people have a stepmother, they have a stepfather, but Zhan Bona has a son-in-law, so he becomes a stepfather!

  "Mom, why don't you persuade him?"

  "How to persuade him? Your father is obsessed now. If you have the ability, you can find him a son-in-law from the commander's family."

  Zhan Aijia was blocked, "You don't want to introduce me to me."

  "It won't be your turn even if you have good conditions." If you really want a golden turtle son-in-law, then everyone is fighting for it. In ancient times, everyone was trying to catch a son-in-law.

  "To choose a taller one among the short ones, just choose the one with good family conditions. I think Li Xing is good."

  "There is no high-ranking cadre in his family, so I don't want him."

  Where can I find someone with a better family background than Gu Sheng? Not to mention his father, just the four brothers above him, no one can match his conditions.

  Zhan Aijia still hopes that Zhan Aiping will divorce. If Zhan Aiping divorces Gu Sheng, she will remarry Gu Sheng...

  In this world, it's not like there are no sisters-in-law who are in high positions.

  Zhan Aiping's temper was so bad that she and Gu Sheng couldn't get along with each other at all. When they finally gave birth to a child, they were even more miserable.

  If she divorces Gu Sheng in the future and tries to win over her children by herself... As long as Gu Sheng turns his heart towards her, Zhan Aiping won't be able to think about it anymore.

  Zhan Aijia looked at Zhu Jiaorong: "Mom, I want to learn cooking. I really want to be a virtuous woman this time."

  When she goes to visit her sister-in-law in the future, she will let her good brother-in-law know how virtuous she is, how good her cooking skills are, and how considerate she is.

  Zhan Aiping's cooking as a child sent Gu Sheng to the hospital for emergency treatment. Zhan Aijia didn't believe that her good brother-in-law could still eat the dishes cooked by her sister. The two of them must have eaten in the canteen in the camp.

  As the saying goes, to capture a man's heart, you must capture a man's stomach.

  It would be nice if Gu Sheng became her brother-in-law, so that Zhan Aijia could have a chance to get close to him.

  Gu Sheng has a bad temper, and being with Zhan Aiping is a head-on confrontation. A man like him should have a gentle and considerate woman standing next to him.

  *

  People at the hospital also knew that Zhan Aiping was pregnant. Qin Yanfang was very happy to hear that she was pregnant with twins, "Congratulations!"

  It was around the Qingming Festival, Qin Yanfang said: "I originally wanted to go with you to pick pine flowers and make pine flower cakes."

  At this time of year, pine flowers in various places are gradually blooming. There is only a short time for pine flowers to bloom, so we must seize the time. Qin Yanfang has already targeted several trees and is staring at the blossoms.

  "Go, why can't you go?" Zhan Aiping thought that this was not a heavy job: "I will bring a companion then."

  Shen Liqing was also called, but I didn't know if she would be willing to go.

  Zhan Aiping discovered that Shen Liqing was an artistic young woman who was greedy for beautiful scenery, but she seemed to be... also a deadbeat.

  Shen Liqing hasn't been assigned a job yet, so she stays at home every day, and doesn't go out much for a walk. She cleans up the yard every day, scatters some seeds on the vegetable plot, and raises chickens and ducks in a painless and Buddhist way.

  She doesn't do anything else at home, she just reads books, likes novels, and indirectly plays hard, which indirectly causes laziness. Wang Youli is busy with work and has little time to come back in a day. When Wang Youli is not at home, Shen Liqing I deal with it casually, sometimes cooking by myself, sometimes asking someone to help me prepare meals in the cafeteria.

  For Shen Liqing, this kind of home-based life is probably not much different from that in Shanghai. It is even more comfortable than in Shanghai, because the living space is wider, and you can see green when you look up when you go out. landscape.

  The biggest difference is that every time after reading the novel, she gets in the car in the camp and goes to the city library to borrow books to read. When she is in a good mood, she cleans the house.

  She and Wang Youli are really like "one family does not belong to the same family". They are both a bit idealistic and both are giants in thought. As for their actions...

  Zhan Aiping went to invite Shen Liqing: "Want to go picking pine flowers together?"

  "Okay!" Shen Liqing agreed. She had been here for several days and had not gone out much. Before coming here, although she had a lot of fantasies in her mind, when it came time to actually do it, she was too lazy to do it. Do.

  Wang Youli was busy at work during the day and didn't care what she did at home. Shen Liqing read novels, stories and comics at home. There was a radio at home, so she listened to music and sang.

  She also has no anxiety or pressure. Wang Youli is a soldier and has basically no expenses except buying cigarettes. As for Shen Liqing, she just loves reading books, newspapers and comic strips, so she doesn't have to spend much money. She also grows vegetables at home. They started raising chickens and ducks, and Wang Youli's salary alone was more than enough to support the two of them.

  Shen Liqing was very accustomed to the current life. Wang Youli was not at home during the day, and he only came back at night. In the evening, she talked to Wang Youli about the books and comics she had read during the day, and talked to him about interesting fragments. The day passed like this.

  Wang Youli was also very satisfied with marrying such a daughter-in-law. He didn't make any trouble. In the evening, the couple talked about literature, looked at the moon, and counted the stars. The day passed like this.

  --Only Li Yuxia found it incredible.

  Li Yuxia said to her husband, Political Commissar Zhang, "Are the daughters-in-law from Shanghai so nice? I think they are obviously from big cities. They got used to it so quickly. The couple didn't even quarrel."

  It makes her, a female director, very embarrassed!

  Li Yuxia thought that Wang Youli and his wife would at least have some conflicts, but who knew that they also lived very peacefully.

  On weekdays, she couldn't even see Shen Liqing's ghost, and she never bothered the women's director.

  Political Commissar Zhang also felt puzzled: "These young male officers are very good at finding partners." One by one, their families are very harmonious.

  Li Yuxia rolled her eyes: "What do you mean? Don't you, an old officer like you, know how to find a partner?"

  Political Commissar Zhang: "..."

  The three people picking pine flowers made an appointment. They set off in the morning and then made pine flower cakes in the hospital. Zhan Aiping and Shen Liqing went out together. When they arrived at the place, Qin Yanfang stood at the intersection and waved to them.

  "The scenery is very beautiful right now. There are also rapeseed fields. There are so many rapeseed flowers. Let's go there while watching the scenery. Doctor Zhan, you are in good health. Let's not take the dangerous mountain roads. Let's just walk on the road and take a look. , let's pick a few pine flowers on the roadside." Qin Yanfang is familiar with the surrounding area, and she has already kept an eye on those trees.

  After hearing her description, Shen Liqing was full of longing: "The sea of ​​rapeseed flowers, I really want to see it, Xiao Qin, is there a lake nearby? Let's go fishing together when we have free time!"

  Shen Liqing is looking forward to fishing in the wild.

  Qin Yanfang looked at Zhan Aiping with great confusion: "... Xiao Shen is from Shanghai like you?"

  Zhan Aiping nodded: "Yes, she is looking forward to such a pastoral life."

  Qin Yanfang: "..." It's quite silly.

  "Xiao Shen, you have been here for a while, are you used to it?" The farming in the poet's mouth is different from the real farming. In reality, farm work is too tiring.

  "It's a habit." Shen Liqing said: "My favorite poet is Tao Yuanming, picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the Nanshan Mountain."

  Qin Yanfang: "Yes, really?"

  "Yes." Zhan Aiping smiled: "Of course she is used to it. She hasn't been out much since she came here. The vegetables she grows are the same as her favorite poet."

  Shen Liqing opened her eyes wide: "What?"

  Zhan Aiping: "The grass is rich but the bean sprouts are sparse."

  The three of them laughed together, and Shen Liqing herself laughed so much that her stomach ached: "Our Lao Wang will help me pull weeds when he comes back."

  That's because Wang Youli really couldn't stand it.

  Shen Liqing said: "Pingping, what you say is so interesting."

  Qin Yanfang said: "I quite envy you two, love."

  She also dated someone when she was studying. It has been several years since they graduated and moved to different places, and they have not gotten married yet.

  "What love?"

  Qin Yanfang said: "Isn't it love? Xiao Shen, you are so courageous. Ping Ping, a childhood sweetheart, came all the way here with Xiao Gu, and you, you have only known each other for a long time, and you are a pen pal. --"

  "Hey -" Shen Liqing waved her hand: "I think it's quite suitable. Everyone has their own ambitions."

  "None of those educated youths from Shanghai can't wait to go back to the city right away. They even dream of going back to the city."

  Shen Liqing said with satisfaction: "I think it's pretty good, no one is looking after me, it's free."

  Judging from the past few days, Shen Liqing is still satisfied with her current life. She is not very happy in Shanghai. The living space is small, the whole family is crowded together, the house next door is noisy, the children are crying, the couple is The sound of beatings and scoldings is simply annoying.

  What made her even more uncomfortable was her mother.

  Every day her mother cooked unpalatable pickled vegetable porridge and dried radish, and made Shen Liqing eat it. She would wake people up early in the morning to have breakfast. If she didn't eat, she would be scolded. She would read more books on weekdays, but also get scolded and listen more. After listening to the radio for a while, I was scolded.

  Now that she is married, she is comfortable with Wang Youli. Wang Youli left early in the morning. Shen Liqing can sleep as long as she wants. No one calls her lazy at all, and she can do whatever she wants. , if you want to read, just read.

  Even the bugle sound always wakes people up, but for Shen Liqing, it is not a problem. She falls asleep after being woken up by the bugle sound.

  This kind of carefree and unattended life is so comfortable.

  Shen Liqing pointed out, "You can also find a husband who is busy with work."

  Zhan Aiping: "..." It really just depends on which pot goes with which lid.

  Qin Yanfang: "Haha."

  "Such a beautiful scenery is so charming." Shen Liqing took a deep breath. Only after arriving in Yunnan Province did she realize that the charm of nature is so wonderful.

  You can see colorful clouds every day, and you can see the mountains and valleys in the distance. These trees are towering. You can see the clouds flowing thousands of miles during the day, the stars are bright at night, and the moon is amazingly beautiful.

  Especially being away from those "seven aunts and eight aunts" who talk nonsense, my ears are clear.

  Qin Yanfang still doesn't quite understand her brain circuit: "Then you go out and see the scenery every day. Although the scenery is beautiful, you will get tired of it after looking at it for a long time."

  No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it can't keep those people who are trying their best to squeeze into the city. The person Qin Yanfang is talking about also wants to run to the city.

  "It's good to go out and play once a month." Shen Liqing said cheerfully. She was different from those people who couldn't rest. She was very idle, with a cup of tea, a piece of cake, and a book to read all day long.

  She only goes out once a month, and she never gets tired of seeing this kind of scenery.

  "Pingping and Camp Commander Gu are the real love." Shen Liqing admitted that she also had selfish motives. Chen Yuan's persuasion was one thing. In fact, she also wanted to find a clean place. In addition, Wang Youli also good.

  Zhan Aiping: "If there is no love, it is better to pick pine flowers."

  She is different from these artistic young women. She is practical, a foodie, and loves to eat.

  As they talked, they had reached the place where there were several large pine trees, with mature yellow flower spikes hanging on the pine trees, which were a bit like wheat ears, but much more swollen than wheat ears.

  The three men worked with scissors and soon had a large basket.

  "It's all done so quickly." Shen Liqing was still unfinished and felt very unfulfilled.

  Zhan Aiping said: "If you don't have enough fun, we can go to the mountains to pick mushrooms together."

  Qin Yanfang said: "Wait for the Water Splashing Festival in a few days, and Xiao Shen can come out to play."

  Shen Liqing shook her head. She was not interested in the Water Splashing Festival. She didn't want to be splashed with water, so she just wanted to pick mushrooms: "To pick mushrooms, do you mean going to the mountains to pick mushrooms?"

  "That's about it. There are a lot of mushrooms on the mountains here."

  "That's great, do you have any tricks?"

  Qin Yanfang said: "Alpinia galliformis and termite holes are together. Remember the location of the termite holes and just go and see if any fungi have grown. Alfalfa nests occur several times a year. If the place is dug for a long time, obvious formation will occur." The pits are quite easy to find."

  Gallisporum grows on the nest of blood-sucking termites, and the two live in symbiosis.

  "Hey, really?"

  Zhan Aiping said: "Be careful not to pick poisonous mushrooms."

  Even if it is not considered toadstool, the well-known "seeing villain" fungus can easily poison people. The problem with Jianshouqing is that it must be cooked. Raw ones are poisonous, cooked ones are not poisonous, and half-cooked ones are better. Poisoned.

  Wild mushrooms are so delicious that many people will eat them even if they are poisoned. For example, there is a joke about Jianshouqing. A whole family was poisoned after eating Jianshouqing. They just came back from the hospital and turned to the Jianshouqing. Qing got a fever for the second time, and the whole family was poisoned again.

  There are a lot of wild mushrooms on the mountain at this time, and they are not valuable things. If you wait until later, you can't pick them casually. Some of them are "bacteria collecting spots" passed down from "ancestors", and outsiders have no chance.

  The three of them picked pine flowers and went back to make pine flower cakes in the hospital. Dr. Zhou kindly sponsored some honey, "The rapeseed flowers have bloomed recently, and I got some rapeseed honey. Let's try it. It tastes very good."

  "Okay, thank you Dr. Zhou."

  The pine flower cake cut into small pieces is yellow on the top and red on the bottom. It has pine pollen on top and red beans on the bottom. The pine flower on top is like being wrapped in a layer of egg skin, and it smells like a light pine wood aroma.

  The pine flowers on top are slightly bitter, while the red bean paste on the bottom is oily and dense. The combination of the two is just right, not greasy and not lacking in flavor.

  Dr. Zhou tasted it and said disgustedly: "Your craftsmanship is still not good, this red bean sticks to your teeth."

  Qin Yanfang: "I just like to eat food that sticks to my teeth."

  Zhan Aiping was eating happily, she could eat anything, "Take some back for my old man to try."

  Shen Liqing: "I will also bring some back to Lao Wang to try. Your hospital is really interesting. How about I come to your hospital to raise pigs."

  "Don't come here."

  Shen Liqing: "I see there are people here who go to the mountains to herd pigs."

  Zhan Aiping: "You still want to herd pigs on the mountain? Be careful of being bitten by wild boars."

  "That's what I'm saying." Shen Liqing said that she is just a giant in thought. She only likes to fantasize and is addicted to fantasies. After the fantasies are over, she feels good.

  She doesn't really want to work.

  --How many more days can I lie down?

  Zhan Aiping and Shen Liqing each brought a basket of pine flower cakes back. In the family home, they met He Lingling who was off work. He Lingling was a teacher and had to go to class every day and didn't have many holidays. Zhan Aiping had one day off, and Shen Liqing directly Without work, the two of them were pretty free.

  "Teacher He, do you want to try the Songhua Cake?"

  "No."

  When He Lingling saw the two of them, she felt that it was the silly sister leading the silly girl.

  These two people were not staying in Shanghai, but they decided to come here, and they even got into trouble. Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping, the two childhood sweethearts who lived next door, had been fighting since childhood. It was already unreliable for them not to quarrel. .

  As for Wang Youli's family, it was purely a pen pal-turned-couple. It was so strange that they formed a couple without getting along very well, and they didn't even quarrel.

  Despite all the evil, Shen Liqing is still happy every day.

  He Lingling's man, Xie Shu, often comes into contact with Wang Youli at work. According to Xie Shu, Wang Youli said that he and his wife are very loving and suitable, and they are full of soul and ideological resonance every day.

  Damn the thought resonance.

  Because of this, He Lingling and Xie Shu had another quarrel, because Xie Shu asked He Lingling to study more with Shen Liqing.

  When He Lingling returned home, she thought of the songhua cake she had just rejected and felt a little regretful. She was hungry.

  Neither she nor Xie Shu can cook, so they wait to eat in the canteen every day.

  Zhan Aiping from the house next door seems to be good at cooking, but she is very lazy and always waits until very late to cook. Her husband doesn't have a hot meal when he comes back, so he has to wait some more. While they are cooking, He Lingling The family has already finished eating. Even if I smell the aroma of the food from the next door, I am not greedy. After all, I am full.

  But - why is the cooking at the home next door getting more and more delicious?

  Even though he was not greedy or hungry, Xie Shu began to encourage He Lingling to learn cooking.

  Be a shit.

  *

  The Water Splashing Festival was over, and Zhan Aiping didn't join in the fun. She was pregnant, so she had to pay attention after all. The hospital knew she was pregnant and wouldn't let her work the night shift, so she had to work the day shift for two more days.

  Zheng Tong, the father of Zheng Xuemei, who was born prematurely that day, would come to the hospital from time to time to deliver some firewood and banana poles, or help feed the pigs, or fertilize the hospital's vegetable plot.

  Zhan Aiping and Dean Hao asked him not to come, but he didn't listen and just gave up.

  These days, fewer people came to Zhan Aiping to deliver babies. When she walked out, the villagers looked at her strangely, so Zhan Aiping asked a familiar aunt in town to inquire.

  The aunt whispered to her:

  "Doctor Zhan, I, I don't know what to say, so don't mind it."

  "Now in private, some people are saying... that you are a monster from a big city. They say that you can do magic and body-holding skills. Many people have seen it with their own eyes. They say that you deliver babies. In fact, I want to eat other people's food..." Zihe Che.

  That is the placenta.

  In ancient legends, Ziheche is something evil spirits like to eat. It is said that eating it can make you look beautiful and stay youthful forever.

  Zhan Aiping really had nothing to say: "..."

  "Does anyone believe this?"

  The aunt shook her head and couldn't explain why.

  Now is the time to destroy the Four Olds. Although it is explicitly prohibited, people can't stand it and just talk about it behind their backs. They spread it to ten people and spread it to hundreds of people. If there are too many people, the law will not punish everyone and they will not be caught.

  Ordinary people would rather believe it or not. Even if they don't believe it, they still murmur in their hearts. After all, the illiteracy rate in this society is too high.

  Chapter 38 Approaching Science

  After saying that, the aunt kept her secret and left. Zhan Aiping thought it was ridiculous and ridiculous, but this kind of thing really happened. Someone was talking behind her back that she was a "monster".

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Maybe there are quite a few people who believe it?

  Maybe people in the future don't know that people in this era are really "easy to cheat", simple and have never seen the world. They especially believe in those things that gods and gods talk about. In the 1970s, feudal superstitions were broken and Taoist temples were destroyed. At this time, everyone Although I dare not discuss it on the stage, I still retain these things in private.

  In the 1980s, demons began to flourish again, especially the "Qigong craze" in the 1980s. At that time, many qigong masters appeared, and many people claimed to be "qigong masters". Some qigong masters could read with their ears, and some could read with their ears. It can cure all kinds of diseases through consultation from a distance, and some qigong masters say that they can "put out fires from thousands of miles away." When a forest fire was put out, the qigong master said that he put it out himself, but in fact it was put out by other firefighters.

  But when the master said that he had traveled thousands of miles to extinguish the fire, many people actually believed it. It was so incredible that something so outrageous happened.

  Some qigong masters even said that they could "intercept atomic bombs"...

  There are always people who believe these inexplicable remarks. In comparison, Zhan Aiping thought that it was not too ridiculous to be said to be a monster and eat purple river carts.

  There is indeed something weird about her.

  But this is a scientific world, and science must still be talked about.

  Zhan Aiping thought to herself that if I were really a monster who knew magic, I would die laughing...

  People in the hospital also knew these rumors about Zhan Aiping. When Qin Yanfang heard these words, her first reaction was to laugh mercilessly.

  "Hahahaha, laugh, I'm laughing so hard. Who made this up? My mom, she's so good at making it up." Qin Yanfang laughed so hard that tears came out. The new Dr. Zhan was a monster, and they got along well. Why didn't she notice it during this period of time?

  Zhan Aiping: "It's just free time."

  There are too few entertainment activities in the countryside at the moment. Even if there are televisions, mobile phones and computers in the future, the rumor-mongering skills of rural aunts and wives have not weakened at all. Zhan Aiping has also heard that some rumors are so outrageous that college students return to the village. Staying at home to prepare for exams can be said by neighbors to be "stuck at home and giving birth to a child out of wedlock"; if a woman is divorced due to domestic violence, the villagers may also mislead people in the village and say that the woman cheated first and that's why she was divorced...

  If you spread rumors, you will lose your legs if you refute them.

  As long as there are rumors, no matter how you explain them, ordinary people will remember "the most outrageous impression about you", because in fact they don't care about the truth at all, just to have something to talk about behind your back.

  Dr. Zhou has this kind of experience: "Xiao Zhan, don't be too serious. This kind of thing is fake at first sight. You explained it for a long time, and people still laughed at you and teased you on purpose."

  Zhou Zhonghua advised her: Explanations are useless, time will tell people's hearts.

  "After waiting for a long time, the rumors naturally dissipated. The most outrageous time in the past was when I was rumored to be a living god. Saihua Tuo said that I was an old half-immortal."

  Qin Yanfang: "Let's see if you are in a hurry when you are called an old monster."

  "But Xiao Zhan, this matter is really not easy to explain."

  "We can't let her continue to spread. I have to ask the people in the brigade to give an explanation." Zhan Aiping could guess who was spreading these rumors. Whose cheese did she touch when she came here? She was also said to have body-holding skills. Who could have taught her this?

  Dr. Zhou sighed: "You are young and you are really serious. I advise you to be more open-minded and don't get into trouble when the time comes."

  "While you are pregnant with your child, take good care of yourself."

  After hearing what he said, Qin Yanfang also advised: "Yes, Doctor Zhan, your own health is more important."

  "It's okay, don't worry. I won't do anything impulsively. I'll go back and make plans." Zhan Aiping will never allow such rumors to continue to spread. How can she explain to people every day that she is not a monster and does not eat Zihe? Cars, especially right away with kids.

  She can't let people call her child a monster and evil child in the future.

  Rumors are everywhere here. When Zhan Aiping returned to the camp, there were no rumors about her yet. She was feeding chickens in the yard and conceiving a plan in her mind. The sun hadn't set yet, and Gu Sheng ran back. , his head was covered with sweat and his clothes were wet.

  The daytime temperature at the moment is over thirty degrees, which is a bit hot.

  Gu Sheng called her, returned to the room and drank a lot of water. He unbuttoned his clothes on his chest, exposing a large piece of his chest. His muscles were swollen with blood. He looked so sweaty that he looked particularly heroic. Very masculine.

  It is estimated that no evil spirit would dare to approach someone with such abundant Yang Qi.

  Of course, there may also be rumors that she married Gu Sheng just to absorb his essence, and besides Zihe Che, she relied on his essence to maintain her beauty.

  Zhan Aiping was embarrassed by her own thoughts: "..."

  She thought to herself that she was quite imaginative.

  Zhan Aiping walked to him and wiped his sweat. Gu Sheng came over with a smile and kissed her on the cheek. Zhan Aiping also had an unconscious smile on her face, which was brought by the smile on his body. The heat steamed up, giving her a slight blush.

  She patted Gu Sheng's handsome face and asked, "What are you doing?"

  "I just did a five-kilometer armed competition with someone."

  Zhan Aiping asked curiously: "Win or lose."

  "Won."

  "Awesome, go take a shower quickly, don't catch the cold, and change into dry clothes." Zhan Aiping helped him take off his shirt, and couldn't help but pinch his back muscles a few times. It was slippery and felt very comfortable. .

  Gu Sheng was a little itchy by her: "What are you doing?"

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "I am absorbing essence, do you understand?"

  Your wife has been rumored to be a goblin. I'm really sorry if you don't absorb some of the rumors.

  Gu Sheng was stunned for a moment: "..."

  Essence?

  Gu Sheng laughed, then realized what she was doing, and stared at her with stern eyes. Zhan Aiping's face turned red unconsciously, and she pushed him to take a shower.

  Gu Sheng took a bath and changed clothes, while Zhan Aiping sat on a small wooden stool, choosing and washing vegetables. Now, the two of them changed their duties at home, and Zhan Aiping prepared the ingredients in advance, and Gu Sheng came to cook.

  After taking a bath, Gu Sheng changed into dry clothes, walked over, picked her up easily, let her sit on his lap, and took over the work from Zhan Aiping.

  Zhan Aiping always felt that when he picked her up, it was as simple and practical as picking up a big cabbage. It made her feel light and airy, but she was not used to this feeling of losing center of gravity and control.

  Being held in someone's arms is like giving all your heart and soul to him.

  Gu Sheng just liked to hold her like this, and he refused to regret it. Before he found out that he was pregnant with the child, he liked to hug her like this, holding her in his arms in various ways, even at night. After he found out he was a father, he became even more clingy and clingy. He loved hugging her so much that he had to weigh her every day to see if she was getting heavier.

  Zhan Aiping moved her position on his lap, but felt a strange threat: "...What do you want to do?"

  Gu Sheng smiled and said in her ear: "Let you absorb the essence."

  Zhan Aiping: "...You are still joking, but you don't know that your wife and I are rumored to be goblins from the city."

  Gu Sheng was surprised: "Specially absorbing men's essence?"

  Zhan Aiping said expressionlessly: "Yes, I eat Zihe Che, and I also absorb men's essence to maintain my beautiful appearance."

  "How about I dig out your old photos and show them to others? I'm sure they won't believe it."

  "Don't come up with bad ideas." Zhan Aiping said coldly: "Comrade Gu, don't underestimate the imagination of the people. Maybe there will be another rumor about me, saying that I can do magic, change from male to female, absorb essence, and eat purple. River cart."

  Gu Sheng: "...I underestimated your imagination."

  "Who the hell spread these things?" Gu Sheng frowned, his brows filled with anger.

  Anyone who hears such gossip about his wife will be furious.

  "Don't be angry. I'm just joking. I have a way to deal with it. Don't underestimate me." Zhan Aiping leaned against him. There was a special tacit understanding between her and Gu Sheng, that is, trusting each other. Don't look down on each other.

  If it wasn't like this, when she encountered something like that at the train station on the first day she arrived, Gu Sheng didn't comfort her as a weak woman, but gave her a thumbs up.

  Gu Sheng clicked his tongue twice: "If you are so angry about the rumors that you want to cry, you can come and cry in my arms. I won't laugh at you."

  "I'm not angry. Such ridiculous rumors have nothing to do with him being angry." Zhan Aiping gently touched her belly with her right hand.

  "Smart, that's it. Find the person who started the rumor and send him to be rehabilitated. There is no need to deal with spreading such rumors at this time." Gu Sheng kissed her on the face and then stood up. He was about to cook. , Zhan Aiping was still held in his arms.

  Her hands held his neck.

  Gu Sheng held his wife in his arms and looked down at her pretty features, delicate eyebrows and beautiful eyes. Sometimes he really felt like she was like a beautiful and cunning little fox.

  He can't match his positive power, but he's very smart when it comes to underhanded tactics.

  He smiled and whispered in her ear: "You still can't bear to let go? You still want to stay in my arms? Don't delay me from cooking."

  Zhan Aiping: "Bah, some people are so shameless."

  Who is reluctant to let go?

  Zhan Aiping let go.

  Gu Sheng put her firmly on the ground with a smile and warned: "Little vixen, wait for me to come over."

  Zhan Aiping kicked him: "You said it wrong."

  "Okay, okay." Gu Sheng laughed more and more, "The cat demon, it's a cat demon."

  "Little Kitty Demon, I'm waiting for you, Daoist Gu, to catch the demon. I'll set up traps and enchantment formations first."

  Zhan Aiping: "...Comrade Gu, you must always remember that you are a party member."

  Don't engage in feudal and superstitious role-playing at home.

  Gu Sheng went to cook. Not long after, the aroma of vegetables came. Zhan Aiping covered her nose and sneezed. She thought with some despair: Gu Sheng's cooking is getting better and better.

  Some people really have billions of talents in them.

  In the past, Zhan Aiping was very confident in her sophisticated cooking skills, but now she was shocked. She was once ridiculed by an old friend, saying that her cooking method of weighing and measuring was soulless, and Zhan Aiping was very dissatisfied.

  "Have you ever seen chefs use measuring cups and spoons to cook? Do they follow the proportions every time they cook? Only a loser in cooking like you needs to follow fixed proportions."

  "Do you think you are cooking or preparing medicine? All kinds of medicinal materials are given according to their portions."

  Zhan Aiping said plausibly at the time: "It's delicious and that's it."

  But it's just delicious, not better.

  As long as you have enough recipes in your mind, you can cook it without fail.

  This is not the case with Gu Sheng now. He doesn't need to memorize recipes at all. After being pointed out by Zhan Aiping a few times, he has already figured out the routines of various seasonings. The cooking techniques are getting better and better.

  Zhan Aiping was jealous and ridiculed him: "You should join the cooking class and make sure everyone fights for it."

  Gu Sheng was quite proud: "Can't I work as a chef in a state-owned hotel?"

  Zhan Aiping: "...so ambitious."

  "Of course you have to be ambitious." Gu Sheng laughed very hard: "I have to thank someone for his selfless dedication and dedicated guidance as a stepping stone, so that I can memorize the recipes and become a master chef."

  "If I can't become a chef, I'll be a stepping stone, right?"

  "Go away, you have to work hard and cook."

  Gu Sheng cooked three dishes and brought them to the couple to eat together under the lamp. The dishes Gu Sheng cooked were not complicated, one fried tofu, one fried bean sprouts, and a bowl of fish soup, but the dishes he cooked were just satisfying. People have a great appetite.

  Gu Sheng served her a bowl of fish soup, and Zhan Aiping drank it happily. The fish soup was fragrant and delicious, and it was extremely delicious.

  But she would not praise Gu Sheng's cooking skills.

  She would not tell Gu Sheng that when she was in the hospital, Zhan Aiping always missed the food he cooked and was addicted to it. How could this man be so good at cooking? After developing his talent in cooking, she became more and more tricky, and she found ordinary dishes unpalatable.

  Let alone dining in the cafeteria, she couldn't even eat the food she cooked herself, and she was crushed alive.

  Zhan Aiping gave up on herself. Next time she cooks, she will try sprinkling salt.

  Gu Sheng felt satisfied when he saw her eating soup and vegetables obediently. He took advantage of his popularity and exchanged experiences with several cooking class chefs who were good at cooking. Of course, when he communicated with people, he didn't say anything He wanted to learn how to cook, but he said: "My wife wants to know how to cook more delicious food..."

  He also really told him his experience in cooking. The three stooges surpassed Zhuge Liang and asked more people. Gu Sheng also summed up the experience, combined theory with practice, and "stepping stones" to send recipes. This craft is even better. It's getting better.

  He raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "It's delicious."

  Zhan Aiping didn't answer him and continued to eat silently. Some people couldn't praise him, but praised him with his tail raised to the sky.

  Gu Sheng was not in a hurry to eat, so he raised his hand and pinched her face: "Silly cat demon, you also eat the traps, just like that greedy little mouse."

  Zhan Aiping likes to make rice with fish soup: "I can't help it, Taoist Master, your Taoism has become higher and higher."

  Gu Sheng smiled and took his own bowl and chopsticks to eat, "I love fish. I will cook more fish for you in the future."

  "Help you remove the fish bones."

  Zhan Aiping really wanted to cry for help.

  --The smelly man in front of me grabbed my stomach accurately.

  If you can cook carrots and potatoes for her every day, why would you use real force?

  Today Zhan Aiping didn't have a very good appetite at the hospital at noon. She didn't eat much because she was fed by him, so she looked forward to him coming home to cook delicious food for her.

  Even though she refused to admit that Gu Sheng's cooking skills were good, she just couldn't control her mouth. Moreover, she ate with one mouth and three people made up for it. Her and the child's stomachs were pinched hard by the man in front of her. She and the two The little cubs didn't want to eat anything else and looked forward to waiting for Gu Sheng to come home to feed them every day.

  "Gu Sheng, your father, your mother, your little sister, and your brothers don't know that your cooking is so delicious." Zhan Aiping also knew that the food in the Gu family was very unpalatable, but she didn't expect it. Such a variant of Gu Sheng.

  Gu Sheng blinked in surprise: "Do you admit that my cooking is delicious?"

  Zhan Aiping: "...you know how to pick out words."

  Bad men especially know how to seize key words.

  "It's delicious and I only cook for you. I don't cook for them. They only deserve to eat in the canteen." Gu Sheng said that his craftsmanship will never be easily tasted by outsiders. It is all used to feed his wife.

  Why should he cook for those people?

  Zhan Aiping: "..." What a cruel man.

  "Comrade Zhan, this is yours only."

  Although these words were tacky, Zhan Aiping really felt flattered. She was very happy and stretched out her hand to tug on Gu Sheng's sleeves. Like a coquettish kitten, she scratched her shit shovel with her paws: " Please help me debone the fish, I still want to eat it."

  She is willing to act coquettishly and cutely just for a bite to eat. Since ancient times, food has been the most important thing for the people.

  Gu Sheng was very happy. After he was full, he specially fed her, which made Zhan Aiping's belly bigger. Afterwards, he finished washing the dishes and weighed Zhan Aiping in his arms.

  Zhan Aiping was unwilling to move while nestled in his arms. She would easily fall asleep after eating a full meal, and she was pregnant, making her a little sleepy.

  Gu Sheng hugged her and coaxed her in a low voice: "Take care of her more..."

  Zhan Aiping gently stroked her belly: "What do you want to do?"

  "It's just out of the stalls, and it's stable. The book says-"

  Zhan Aiping raised her hand to cover his mouth. Some people really should be tortured and tortured in the anti-pornography campaign.

  "Is this what you read medical books to understand?"

  Gu Sheng said sincerely: "That's all I've got."

  "And I saw-"

  Zhan Aiping continued to cover his mouth.

  "Okay, if you don't let me say it, I'll just do it. I'll prosper the country through hard work, and it will harm the country through empty talk."

  Zhan Aiping: "...If you ignore the comrades and believe the rumors, you are actually holding a monster that sucks human essence."

  "Let you suck it."

  *

  Because of the rumors, Zhan Aiping took the initiative to go to several cadres of the brigade. The branch secretary had a very good attitude and sincerely apologized to her: "...this kind of thing happened. When the truth is found out, we must let people know." The person behind the rumor made a sincere apology and deep self-reflection to Dr. Zhan in public, and educated the public through this matter..."

  The militia captain and security director are already investigating the source of the rumors behind the scenes. If something like this happens, the masses must be educated.

  "Doctor Zhan, don't worry, I will handle this matter strictly."

  Branch Secretary Xu Yong's business-like attitude made Zhan Aiping dissatisfied because she could tell that Xu Yong was perfunctory. He didn't take the matter as a big deal at all and just wanted to get rid of Zhan Aiping quickly to avoid her Struggle again.

  After Zhan Aiping was sent away, she "criticized" a few words at the conference, and the big thing turned into a trivial matter, and the trivial matter turned into nothing.

  Even if the villagers were still talking behind his back, he said he had already dealt with it.

  There is no way, who told them not to listen.

  Explain, explanation is useless.

  "Secretary Xu, I hope to hold a village meeting. I want to talk about science to the members in person."

  Secretary Xu was stunned: "We talk about science, you talk about science? Our superstition eradication group has talked about science many times..."

  You tell your story, and others believe what they say.

  "You young girl, you don't understand." Secretary Xu felt that Zhan Aiping was too serious and unyielding, and she had to dwell on such rumors for so long that she knew were nonsense.

  Zhan Aiping said: "Secretary Xu, don't you know? Before I came here to be a doctor, I was a teacher in a medical school. Don't worry, my teaching level will never let you down."

  "I'm here to teach science to the members and hold a science propaganda conference."

  "Secretary, you are responsible for organizing a village meeting, and I will do the rest."

  Secretary Xu thought for a moment: "Okay, you can tell it yourself."

  "You are a young girl. Let me remind you first that this is a rural area, not the city you lived in before. The situation here is very complicated. The members are not well-educated. No matter how reasonable you are, they... won't listen. "

  Not only did I not understand, but I also didn't want to understand. I had learned how to deal with perfunctory matters. I nodded superficially, and then completely forgot about it.

  There is still a long way to go to educate people about illiteracy.

  "Then it's settled, secretary, don't worry, I'm very good at talking about science." Zhan Aiping patted her chest, thinking that she was a "science-savvy" party member who had watched many episodes of "Into Science."

  Why was the filming of "Into Science" so confusing and nonsense? It's just because you're serious about popularizing science, you don't have ratings, and you have to be so weird and nonsense that people like to watch it.

  The reason behind the strange man vomiting blood is "bleeding gums"; the reason behind the zombie boy is "pretending"; the reason behind the ancient tree's voice is "someone fell into the pit"; the reason behind the terrifying water monster in the lake is "the fish's mouth was knocked crooked by the boat" ;The reason why the wall is electrified is even more nonsense. The reason is that the electric pen at my uncle's house is broken...

  The truth behind all the weird and terrifying things is so "heartwarming" that everyone gets rid of superstition.

  Seeing that Zhan Aiping was so confident, Secretary Xu could only shake his head helplessly. After Zhan Aiping left, he said to Zhou Xiaofang, the women's director of the brigade: "The little girls from the city are just stubborn. Same, more serious."

  Zhou Xiaofang: "That's right. What's wrong with saying something behind her back? Calling her a goblin, isn't it just to praise her for her beauty?"

  If she hadn't been so good-looking, who would have made such nonsense about her eating Zihe Che?

  "Young people can't stand a few gossips. She still wants to talk about science to the members. Tsk, tsk, wait until she gets a nail on her forehead."

  "Let's just wait and see a joke."

  Secretary Xu said: "Xiao Zhou, you are the women's director, and she is also a military wife. When the time comes that she will be angry and cry, you have to comfort her and make her not take it to heart."

  "Those who spread rumors will be dealt with naturally."

  "It was Zheng Tong and his sister who made trouble with the two midwives." It would be too easy to find out this matter. Paper cannot contain the fire. After Zhan Aiping came, she looked young, beautiful and clean. She is from a big city, a college student, and a doctor. She is also responsible for delivering babies. She is fully sterilized and respects the mother. She is not as rough as a country woman. Her words are very gentle. Everyone who has been delivered by her praises her. She also cuts the umbilical cord of the child. Well, in the brigade, anyone who treats the mother well will be willing to ask her to deliver the baby. This does not mean that people will make less money.

  Even if you deliver a baby once, you only get two or three yuan, a few eggs, brown sugar occasionally, and you are treated to a meal by the host's family. If you add up to a lot, it is still a big number.

  Some midwives make a little extra money, but they still hate Zhan Aiping. Even if they deliver three or four babies a month, they still earn ten yuan. This is not a small number. Many people's wages are only ten or twenty yuan. .

  "It's okay to have this rumor." Secretary Xu thought, and wanted to give others some way to survive. Zhan Aiping was carrying this rumor, which might hurt her, but everyone said it behind her back, and there were mixed believers and unbelievers, so she was willing to find someone. Zhan Aiping will still find Zhan Aiping.

  Alas, on the contrary, the better the family conditions are, the more they love their daughter-in-law, and the more willing they are to find a young female doctor like Zhan Aiping who looks clean and polite. She is also generous with her gifts, giving brown sugar eggs, and even killing chickens to thank her.

  Doesn't this make people jealous?

  *

  The secretary called on the members of the production team to hold a "scientific propaganda meeting". According to Zhan Aiping's request, it was held several times. After all, production teams that were far away could not get together.

  Members who are close to each other open together.

  Secretary Xu guessed that this so-called "science propaganda meeting" could only be held once and then stopped. At that time, he would ask the militia captain to clean up the mess, and everyone would talk about science as they pleased, and that would be the end of it.

  After finishing the farm work that day, all the commune members and educated youth gathered under the loudspeaker in the village square. Those with stools sat on stools, and those without stools pulled some straw and branches and sat directly under their buttocks.

  Not only the branch secretary, deputy secretary, militia captain and various members, the security director, the production team captain, the political captain, etc. all came, but they stood aside and waited to see how the young female doctor from the city would do. The villagers talk about science.

  At this time Zhan Aiping came out. She was not wearing anything else today. She was wearing an old military uniform of her own. Her hair was all pulled up and put under a hat. She had a pretty face like a flower, like a female art soldier. She was here. Going to the countryside to offer condolences.

  The villagers gave her face and applauded her. After all, she was good-looking and Wulun was a monster or evil spirit. As long as she was good-looking, it would be good to listen to her talk.

  This point has to be said about the characteristics of the Chinese people. Although they are superstitious, they don't seem to believe that much. They don't seem to have such absolute respect and fear for those gods, ghosts and monsters.

  After all, there are myths in the past, the story of the seven fairies, the old cow instigating the cowherd to steal the fairy's clothes; the legend of the White Snake, where the white snake repaid her favor and was imprisoned in Leifeng Pagoda; as for those A Chinese Ghost Story, the female ghost seems to be quite infatuated.

  Fairies dare to steal their clothes, and snakes dare to marry them. Female ghosts are quite infatuated. They harm bad people but not good people. They don't do bad things and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.

  Some mothers who had been delivered by Zhan Aiping said that Dr. Zhan did not take Zihe car at all.

  Yes, this also shows that her family is a good person and has never done any bad things.

  What if this Doctor Zhan is also an infatuated succubus descending to earth?

  "Hello everyone, my name is Zhan Aiping. I am a new doctor at Yanxin Health Center. Today I will hold a scientific presentation conference for everyone to lead everyone to understand some scientific knowledge."

  The villagers listened to her clichés with expressionless expressions. Over the past few years, they had held meetings frequently, and they were tired of hearing them. They didn't want to listen to any propaganda meetings at all. It was better to watch an open-air movie.

  Secretary Xu and the Women's Director Zhou Xiaofang looked at each other: "It's boring, it's just her one-man show."

  The militia captain on the side shook his head, thinking that they had already been taught "science" by Dr. Zhan beforehand.

  Unforgettable.

  "She looks young and easy to bully. There must be some second-rate guy causing trouble."

  The young and beautiful ones also like to tease them a bit.

  Sure enough, a second-rate guy immediately said in the crowd with a playful smile: "Dr. Zhan, what kind of science do you want to talk about? Why don't you come over and talk in my ear."

  Zhan Aiping smiled slightly: "Comrade, if you want to listen to me talk about science, then stand up."

  "Okay, okay, I'll stand up." Zhou Jing, a second-rate man, stood up with a trembling smile.

  Zhan Aiping walked to him without getting close to him. She suddenly waved her right hand in front of Zhou Jing, and a flame suddenly shot out from her palm and burned in front of Zhou Jing, burning Zhou Jing and the people around him. They were all shocked.

  How have they never seen this before?

  "Fire! It's on fire!"

  Zhan Aiping waved her hand again, and another fire burst out.

  Then her sleeve flicked and a surgical knife fell out: "As a gay man who likes science, I hope you can cooperate with me and demonstrate the head cutting and suturing technique in public."

  "I cut off his head in front of everyone and sewed it back together."

  "The job is guaranteed, the job is guaranteed."

  Zhou Jing was dumbfounded, and the surrounding villagers were also dumbfounded. This, this, this... is this still scientific?

  Zhan Aiping said calmly: "Our purpose today is to teach everyone about science."

  The militia captain had long been disgusted with the second-rate man, and said below: "Zhou Jing, go up and cooperate with Dr. Zhan in demonstrating science and technology."

  Zhou Jing: "?!!!"

  The villagers were also shocked: "!!!" Is it really about science?

  The villagers who came back to their senses immediately looked at the excitement and said, "Zhou Jing, you go and cooperate with Dr. Zhan, we have to listen to science!"

  No matter what happened, it wasn't their heads that were cut off.

  "Yeah, I want to listen to science too!"

  "I want to listen to science too!"

  ...

  At this time, everyone was attentively waiting for the demonstration of "science and technology". At this time, everyone's appetite was whetted. Even Secretary Xu couldn't wait to know what was going on.

  Zhou Jing covered his neck: "I don't, I don't believe in science, I don't..."

  He huddled on the ground and pretended to be dead. He was so cowardly.

  "Since everyone is unwilling to cooperate with such cruel science, I will tell you something gentle." Zhan Aiping took out a handkerchief, conjured a flower out of thin air, and gave it to the little girl sitting next to her mother.

  Then she turned the flower into a living bird, which caused everyone to exclaim.

  Zhan Aiping smiled slightly again: "Let me tell you a few stories about 'getting closer to science'."

  That is to say, it is a scientific story that pretends to be scary and scary on the surface, but the truth behind it is very "heartwarming".

  ...

  Zhan Aiping, a former teacher, has a pretty good ability to educate (and deceive) people when it comes to preaching, and the villagers were stunned and fascinated.

  They have never heard of these stories. They only watch movies and listen to model plays. They never knew that there are such interesting "into science stories" and "science performances".

  "Hey, it must be fake again."

  "The will-o'-the-wisp in the cemetery turns out to be chemistry..."

  "Doctor Zhan's palms were on fire just now because he hid the fire paper..."

  "It's all about physics and chemistry, what is chemistry?"

  ...

  Even Secretary Xu was fascinated by it. This story about science is so interesting.

  "Okay, today's science presentation conference ends here."

  "Doctor Zhan, please tell me a few more." Their daily barren lives lack interesting scientific stories.

  "It's already very late. Let's go back. There will be a science presentation conference in two days."

  ...

  After that, Zhan Aiping held several more "Into Science Publicity Conferences", which were almost full. Some people even walked several hours on mountain roads to listen to "science stories" and see "science and technology demonstrations".

  The rumors about Zhan Aiping are self-defeating and require no explanation. The most effective and quick way to subvert the rumors is to make the masses remember something more explosive and interesting.

  --She is now Dr. Zhan, who specializes in "telling scientific" stories.

  As for the people who started the rumor, Zheng Tong's sister, Zheng Yinmei, the woman who made trouble when the premature baby Zheng Xuemei entered the hospital, and the two midwives, Meng Youfeng and Sun Laimiao, were all arrested and reformed through labor education.

  That is to say, to do the hard work, dirty work and tiring work in the brigade.

  The villagers pointed at Zheng Yinmei: "It's so stupid. What kind of body-fixing technique? They use traditional Chinese medicine techniques. It's so stupid."

  "that is."

  "They don't understand science."

  *

  Zhan Aiping's introduction to science also spread to the family courtyard of the camp. Several sisters-in-law came to watch her science performance and listened to the science stories, which was very interesting.

  Both families had some free time, and Wang Youli and Shen Liqing said they wanted to come to Gu's house for a meal. Wang Youli also brought a bottle of good wine.

  Gu Sheng invited them to have a meal at his Nuanjia meal before, and Wang Youli came to settle the score.

  Wang Youli said to Shen Liqing: "Try his craftsmanship."

  During this period of time, Wang Youli was very proud of himself. He was newly married and had cultural and spiritual exchanges with his new wife. He couldn't wait to chatter everywhere.

  Shen Liqing is a bit lazy, but she cooks a delicious meal from time to time.

  Wang Youli thought to himself that his daughter-in-law's cooking must be better than that of Dr. Zhan's.

  "Lao Gu, I must come to your house for a meal."

  Gu Sheng waved his hand: "Come on, come on, just don't regret it when you come."

  "How could I regret it?"

  Wang Youli and his wife came to the door with gifts in full swing. As soon as they entered the door and sat there for a while, they saw Gu Sheng fully armed and seemed to be ready to take the shovel.

  It seems he plans to cook with his own hands.

  Wang Youli was stunned: "Lao Gu, what do you want to do?"

  An old comrade for many years, he knew that Gu Sheng couldn't cook at all.

  What does he want to do?

  "Cook food for you and your wife, you will be in a good mood."

  Wang Youli: "...I don't want this kind of blessing."

  Although Gu Sheng knew that Dr. Zhan was pregnant, he would definitely take action, but Wang Youli didn't expect that Gu Sheng would take care of everything.

  Gu Sheng doesn't talk about martial arts. Could it be that he was using Tian Ji's horse racing tricks?

  Wang Youli asked: "Can you really cook?"

  "Isn't it easy to learn how to cook? My wife can just teach me how to cook."

  "You can also ask your wife to give you some advice when you go back."

  Wang Youli: "..."

  He suspected it was a Hongmen Banquet.

  Chapter 39 Original Intention

  Wang Youli's eyes were full of suspicion, and he stood behind Gu Sheng intently, paying attention to his every move.

  --He has never seen Gu Sheng like this.

  Although he was still in military uniform without a hat, he actually put on an apron. Is this... too much of a sacrifice? Gu Sheng's face was expressionless and seemed very calm, and the movements of his hands were also unhurried.

  Wang Youli studied him carefully.

  Wang Youli has seen Gu Sheng lecturing people with a cold face, seen him standing in the corner smoking, and seen him arguing with his superiors, but he has never seen him... He was wearing an apron and holding a spatula. , with an unruly and stern look on his face, looking like he was washing his hands and making soup at home.

  Regardless of whether it was Tian Ji's horse racing or not, Lao Wang had a sigh on his face: "Lao Gu, Lao Gu, do you still remember what you said in Shanghai?"

  "Now it's more than just helping me, now you cook all the food in your house." It's not like some men who marry a wife just so that the woman can cook for him, wash clothes and take care of the children.

  Wang Youli felt that he and Xiao Shen had more ideological and soul resonance than most couples. Unexpectedly, Gu Sheng was more considerate.

  Could he be pretending to be pretentious today?

  What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

  Gu Sheng washed the spatula: "I am progressive in my thinking."

  Shen Liqing said: "Listen, Lao Wang, Comrade Gu is a good comrade. He loves his wife so much. Dr. Zhan is pregnant, so he can help if he can."

  "Director Li asked you to learn more from him."

  Wang Youli: "Should I learn from him? I just want to see what kind of dishes he can cook for a table?"

  With him watching over here, he would never let Gu Sheng have any chance of cheating.

  "Before I got married, I had never cooked before. Now that my wife is pregnant, I feel very sorry for her. I want to cook for her with my own hands."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Gu Sheng said: "Xiao Shen, your Lao Wang once said that no matter whether you can do it or not, you must first have an attitude."

  Shen Liqing said: "That's right."

  Gu Sheng said: "Old Wang, are you right?"

  Wang Youli: "If you can cook a table of good food, I will cook a table of good food for you next time."

  "Okay, remember what you said."

  Wang Youli watched Gu Sheng cooking, while Zhan Aiping and Shen Liqing were drinking tea in the room. Zhan Aiping was pregnant with the child. He didn't drink tea himself, but poured tea for Shen Liqing, while he drank milk powder.

  Shen Liqing followed her into the study room and saw that Zhan Aiping's bookshelf was full of medical skills. She immediately sighed: "Doctor Zhan, you have so many books at home, so many medical books."

  Zhan Aiping said: "If you want to see it, I can lend it to you."

  Shen Liqing shook her head quickly: "I don't dare to read more medical books. The more I read, the more I feel that I am sick all over."

  She looked around casually and saw a notebook. It was not Zhan Aiping's handwriting, but Gu Sheng's handwriting. She asked curiously: "How come the medical study notes belong to Comrade Gu of your family? He is also studying medicine?"

  Zhan Aiping: "He has father anxiety, temporarily studied medicine, and even tried to feel my pulse."

  "This is too romantic." Shen Liqing's eyes sparkled with longing.

  Zhan Aiping: "...?" What kind of romance is this?

  "You and your wife share the same goals, have the same experience of being a soldier, and have the same experience of studying medicine. Isn't this romantic? You read books together at night, and you are good teachers and helpful friends. You talk about the past, the present, and the future together. It's really a match made in heaven. A pair."

  Zhan Aiping: "I heard that your family talks about the stars and the moon every day, and they also have cultural and ideological resonance."

  Shen Liqing: "It's too much, I'm tired."

  She and Wang Youli started dating as pen pals. They wrote the best things about each other in each other's letters. Now they really get along with each other. Although there are few moments of getting along with each other every day, Shen Liqing always feels that getting along with him is too much. Tired, she still has to maintain her "beautiful" image.

  Just like when she first came to the camp, Shen Liqing insisted on cooking Nuanjia's own meals. This was because Shen Liqing wanted to establish an image of herself as good at cooking, but she messed up.

  Although Shen Liqing has romantic feelings on her forehead, she is actually very careless about life. The food should not be too unpalatable, just eat it. She likes freedom and laziness.

  Fortunately, Wang Youli was away from home all day, so he didn't notice her excessive lazy nature.

  Shen Liqing was also very worried. When a man and a woman were together, how could they talk about literature every day? It would be meaningless if they chatted for a long time. The initial passion faded, and the resonance of the so-called "cultural soul" was as tiring as going to work. It makes people rack their brains.

  After living together and becoming more and more familiar with each other, we finished talking about the past and talking about books, but we didn't know what to talk about anymore.

  It's better than when I was a pen pal, I looked forward to his letters every time.

  Now Shen Liqing doesn't really want Wang Youli to go home.

  Zhan Aiping said: "You can start showing your truest side in front of him."

  "My truest side? I don't even know what my truest side looks like..."

  Zhan Aiping said: "Just live a relaxed life and do whatever you want. Don't force yourself to do things you don't want to do."

  Shen Liqing sighed: "..."

  "That's why I envy you, Comrade Xiao Zhan. You and your family, Xiao Gu, grew up together. Each of you knows the truest side of the other. You don't have to live a life like us."

  "Dr. Zhan, I'm in so much pain. I don't want to talk about literature with him anymore. I'm more tired than going to work." Now Shen Liqing has lost the pleasure of reading. Every time she reads, she has to think about Wang Youli coming back at night and talking to him. What would be better to talk about.

  Tired of coping.

  The conversation is repetitive.

  She couldn't bear this kind of married life.

  Zhan Aiping said: "Then don't talk about literature and do something else."

  "What are you doing?" Shen Liqing asked curiously: "Doctor Zhan, what are you and Comrade Gu talking about at home?"

  "We..." Zhan Aiping paused for a moment. She couldn't explain why. Gu Sheng was a big dog. He liked to stick to her side as soon as he got home. He liked to hug her and kiss her, and he always had to use his hands. They couldn't drive each other away, so the two of them stuck together, talking, bickering, or doing their own thing, and occasionally looking up at each other.

  "Exercise."

  Shen Liqing: "...?"

  Exercise?

  "How, how do you exercise?"

  "Look at our Lao Gu, who is tall and strong. I used to be a female soldier, and my physical training results are very good. We wrestle arms and lift weights. I also practice leg and foot kung fu on him." Zhan Aiping can't say that. My husband and I make love to each other at home every day, so I would like to express it in a subtle way.

  Lifting weights, Gu Sheng carried her around every day, which was almost like lifting weights.

  As for practicing leg and kick skills, that's...she is indeed very good at clinging to Gu Sheng.

  Shen Liqing: "Now that you are pregnant, you can't practice."

  "Yes, so I urged him to read medical books and learn cooking skills. He and I grew up together. We are both very competitive. He is very serious about everything he does, and he has to surpass me in cooking. He is a good competitor. opponent."

  "We often bring out the competitive spirit in each other."

  Shen Liqing suddenly realized: "..."

  Does it arouse the opponent's competitive spirit?

  Zhan Aiping said: "When he does well, you can praise him more. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to praise others."

  "Dr. Zhan, you are indeed a good doctor. You understand the relationship between men and women very well." Shen Liqing said, "I understand."

  Zhan Aiping: "...what do you know?"

  "You are more suitable to be a women's director than Director Li." Shen Liqing chuckled: "I will find something new for our old Wang to do when I get back."

  Isn't it just competitive? Let him compare with Gu Sheng; isn't it just to praise others? Praise him so much that he can't find anything to say.

  Zhan Aiping: "...take it easy."

  The two were chatting in the room, and the smell of vegetables outside came in waves. Shen Liqing rubbed her nose. She wondered why the food cooked outside was so fragrant and how it could be so fragrant.

  "Your battalion commander Gu is good at cooking?"

  Zhan Aiping said modestly: "It's okay."

  When it was time to eat, the table was already filled with dishes. Wang Youli was already sitting on his seat, planning to drink alone later. After a while, two more people came, Sun Wei and Zhou Jiajia, who were from Gu Sheng's camp. Those who came here for a meal had something good happen to their camp recently, and they got rankings and medals.

  Zhou Jiajia's name looks like a girl's, but in fact he is a big, strong man. He is also tall and strong, with a strong back and waist, at least 1.8 meters.

  With a loud voice and a loud voice, he said: "Sister-in-law is really good at this craft. I'm so blessed today."

  Wang Youli said: "You are indeed blessed, the food cooked by your battalion commander."

  Zhou Jiajia and Sun Wei acted as if they had heard some big joke: "I don't believe it."

  "How is that possible?" How could their battalion commander cook the food himself and host the Hongmen Banquet?

  The battalion commander dared to cook food, but they didn't dare to eat it.

  "Instructor Wang, you're still pretty much burned."

  Gu Sheng said: "That's right."

  After hearing Gu Sheng's words, Zhou Jiajia and the two felt relieved.

  Zhan Aiping and Shen Liqing came out at this time, Zhan Aiping said: "Try our food."

  Zhou Jiajia said: "Sister-in-law, the food you cook looks delicious."

  Sun Wei: "Our battalion commander really married a good wife."

  Wear it a thousand times, but flattery never wears it.

  Zhan Aiping: "...?"

  Shen Liqing: "Hey."

  Wang Youli: "I said it was your battalion commander who burned it. I saw him burning it with my own eyes."

  Zhou Jiajia: "Stop teasing us. How is it possible? Our battalion commander cooked it. Was it the Hongmen Banquet?"

  Their battalion commander cooks food, which is a fantasy. He dares to cook it but he doesn't dare to eat it.

  Gu Sheng: "...?" Write it down in a small notebook.

  Zhan Aiping laughed and joked: "Maybe I really burned it?"

  Wang Youli: "..."

  Wang Youli looked at his wife Shen Liqing.

  Shen Liqing didn't say anything. She just stared at the table of food curiously. It seemed to be quite delicious. "Don't worry about who cooked it. Let's sit down and eat."

  "That's right."

  The food came first, and they were all just ricers, so they were not polite. Shen Liqing took a bite of the food, her eyes lit up, and she joked: "Doctor Zhan's skills are really good."

  Zhou Jiajia said: "Good cooking skills."

  Zhan Aiping: "Thank you for the compliment."

  Shen Liqing said: "I am helping out on the side, and I have my share."

  Wang Youli: "...?" It was obvious that I was the one doing the work, and it was obvious that he was a guest, but Gu Sheng ordered the people to wash and chop the vegetables without any courtesy.

  Sun Wei: "Both sisters-in-law are very good at their craftsmanship. The battalion commander and instructor Wang are so lucky."

  Gu Sheng: "That's right."

  Wang Youli: "...Yes."

  After eating a whole table of rice, all the plates were cleared. Zhan Aiping was a little embarrassed because she wanted to save face: "Cook more next time?"

  "How about two more dishes?"

  Inviting others to dinner and not leaving any leftovers seems stingy.

  Zhou Jiajia: "No, no, that's enough, sister-in-law, your cooking is so delicious."

  Sun Wei: "The battalion commander is so lucky."

  The two of them left satisfied.

  Shen Liqing went back with Wang Youli. Shen Liqing was very excited at the moment. The more she thought about it, the more interesting it became, as if there were a few more ripples in her peaceful life.

  "Look, how interesting it is for Dr. Zhan and Battalion Commander Gu to live together."

  Wang Youli: "I don't think they have the same resonance of thoughts and collision of souls as we do."

  Although the resonance and collision of thoughts make people feel tired...

  "Then you have misunderstood Battalion Commander Gu. Comrade Gu is so good. He took the initiative to learn cooking. He also took the initiative to study medicine. I saw his medical study notes in the study. He is serious and devoted to the development of medicine. Come closer, comrade." Shen Liqing boasted that Gu Sheng was unique. After she finished speaking, she said to Wang Youli: "Comrade Wang, I always feel that you should do better than Comrade Gu, and you should be better than him..."

  Wang Youli: "Of course I'm better than him. He's just a rough man. Their group is just a bachelor's group. Look at those two, they are both naive and straightforward."

  Shen Liqing agreed: "That is, you are more careful than him, more considerate, and more able to pay attention to details."

  "That's why I like you."

  Wang Youli had a smile on his face and felt very comfortable listening to these words.

  "Comrade Wang, our life should also become interesting and colorful." Shen Liqing nodded: "Starting from tomorrow, I will also teach you how to cook. I think you are very talented. You are such a careful person. He can definitely do better than a rough man like Gu Sheng."

  She took the initiative to hold Wang Youli's hand and said, "I really want to try your cooking."

  "Battle Commander Gu must have tried his best today and brought out what he is best at. You can't lose to him!"

  "That's how I could lose to him." Wang Youli said harshly, but when he saw Shen Liqing's expectant eyes, he felt happy inside, but also had a slight stomachache.

  In fact, this is not bad...

  The two of them cooked together, and at least they didn't have to rack their brains to talk about literature every day. The more they talked, the less ink in his stomach would be.

  "As a modern soldier, you should have such a competitive spirit." Shen Liqing gave him a cheering gesture, thinking that this should arouse his competitive spirit.

  Wang Youli: "..."

  "I'm just afraid that the food I made at first won't taste good."

  "It doesn't matter, I believe in you, and I will grow up with you."

  Shen Liqing thought to herself, no matter how unpalatable it is, would the pickles made by her mother be even more unpalatable? As long as it's not too unpalatable, she can always praise it.

  A lazy person like her really doesn't have such high requirements.

  "Lili, you are so kind." Wang Youli was moved.

  Shen Liqing smiled.

  "Lili, I see they also have a sewing machine. How about we buy one too, and you can learn from it, and we can make progress together!"

  "You are so ingenious and thoughtful, the clothes you make must be very beautiful." Wang Youli looked at him expectantly.

  Shen Liqing agreed with tears in her eyes: "Okay then."

  At least let's not talk about literature.

  *

  Everyone else in the family left, leaving Zhan Aiping and his wife, who packed everything and took a bath. Zhan Aiping squeezed Gu Sheng's shoulders, asked him to lie on the bed, and massaged him personally to clear his meridians.

  "Daughter-in-law, your technique is really good, but you don't have enough strength."

  "Do you think massage is about using brute force? The more painful it is, the better."

  "Yes, yes, as long as you feel comfortable, it would be better to marry a doctor as your wife."

  Zhan Aiping put two homemade plasters on his body. Every time Gu Sheng saw her plasters, he kept laughing: "I thought a female military doctor should carry a stretcher and walk through the sky under gunfire. ."

  "...It turns out that my wife is selling dog skin plasters under the overpass."

  "Yes, I sell plasters." Zhan Aiping was so angry that she pinched his back, "I not only sell bruises and pain relief creams, but I also sell anti-hair loss and hair growth creams, which specializes in treating infertility, bruises and bruises." Damage, hair loss and gray hair..."

  Gu Sheng sat up with a smile, held her in his arms, and coaxed in a low voice: "Your plaster is indeed quite comfortable."

  "That's right." This is Zhan Aiping's improved formula. She uses it smoothly. There are also companies trying to buy her formula, but she doesn't sell it because there are already enough pain-relieving ointments for bruises on the market. Not a good price.

  If you are short of money later, you can jointly create a brand with others to sell some pain relief cream, toothpaste, shampoo, and maybe some skin care products.

  "I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow."

  "Um."

  Gu Sheng was going on a business trip for a few days, so he wanted to spend the day with Zhan Aiping and take a ride at night without wasting time.

  "Congratulations." Gu Sheng was about to be promoted to deputy commander.

  "As for you, Doctor Zhan, don't expect me to be the regimental commander and division commander by then. You are still a little doctor. When will you become the director and the dean?"

  Zhan Aiping smiled and raised her eyebrows: "Just wait."

  "Who from all over the country doesn't know me, Doctor Zhan? Are you as famous as me?"

  "Indeed, I admire Dr. Zhan who is the most scientific."

  Although he wanted to accompany her to the hospital, Gu Shengren disappeared early the next morning before dawn. He went up the mountain to dig for wild mushrooms. He was very familiar with the nearby mountains and forests. It was said that he had memorized dozens of chicken fir trees. At the nest point, Zhan Aiping suspected that he didn't want to accompany her, but that he just wanted to eat wild mushrooms.

  He also hurried to pick the unopened mushrooms. This was almost the time when the wild mushrooms just emerged, and they were delicious. People who love to eat wanted to take a bite of the freshest ones first.

  In the future, the wild mushrooms that have just been put on the market can be sold for thousands of kilograms, and the ordinary ones can be sold for hundreds of kilograms. This is also the reason why some people are poisoned by wild mushrooms for a second time. A plate of wild mushrooms can cost at least several hundred. He was poisoned and went to the hospital. He didn't want to throw it away when he came back. He reheated it in the pot and ate it again and ended up in the hospital.

  Of course, the wild mushrooms on the mountain are still not very valuable and cannot be sold at high prices. Ganba mushrooms, gallinobacteria and porcini mushrooms are relatively popular. As for matsutake and black truffles, not many people like to eat them. At that time, matsutake mushrooms were also called stinky chicken fir trees. Children on the mountain saw them and picked them up and stepped on them to play with.

  Zhan Aiping took a ride to the hospital by herself. After working the morning shift, there were no more patients. Gu Sheng had already taken a shower and changed into clean clothes, the clothes Zhan Aiping had made for him. He appeared in the family room of the hospital. He walked into her house in a familiar way, as if he was already the master of the house.

  "Doctor Zhan, is that person from your family here?" Qin Yanfang had met Gu Sheng once before. Now she still felt very strange to see Gu Sheng in the family room.

  Dr. Zhan's partner is really handsome, tall and handsome.

  "Yeah, he comes over when he has time."

  Gu Sheng moved the stove into the yard and started making soup, mushroom and chicken soup. It was fine at first, but later on, the overflowing fragrance was simply a fatal temptation.

  Several people in the hospital were drooling with greed, and they all said they would come to his house to eat. Dr. Zhou even generously contributed "rapeseed oil" to stir-fry wild mushrooms. "Put more oil, it will be more fragrant."

  The fried chicken fir is particularly fresh and sweet.

  The mushroom soup is the most fragrant and tempting.

  Qin Yanfang almost cried out: "Mushroom pot, mushroom pot, mushroom pot..."

  Zhan Aiping was also disturbed by the smell. She sneaked up to Gu Sheng and kicked him: "You are really good at eating, Gu Laowu."

  Run to the hospital to release poison.

  "Isn't it good to eat in the hospital? It's what you said... a sense of security." Gu Sheng smiled very proudly.

  Zhan Aiping was speechless: "..." So did you deliberately go to the hospital to eat?

  "You are poisoned. Do you want me to wash your stomach myself?"

  "That's right, just stop eating and watch me eat." Gu Sheng pays more attention to mushrooms, which are common edible mushrooms. He has a strong ability to memorize maps and distinguish wild mushrooms. Strong, and only pick the best.

  Zhan Aiping: "...I really want to bite you to death."

  Run up to her and put the poison.

  --She wants to eat it too.

  But she was pregnant, so she was not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. If she could not eat these wild fungi, it was best not to eat them.

  "You bite, you bite, I eat the fungus, you eat me."

  "roll."

  Gu Sheng released poison in the hospital and disturbed countless people. Not only the doctors in the hospital, but also several patients also wanted to stay in the hospital.

  "What does your hospital smell like? It smells so good..."

  "It smells so good."

  "Is it the hospital cafeteria?"

  Doctor Zhou coaxed the patient out: "Nothing, just a male family member of our hospital cooking."

  "Does the male family cook?"

  "Yes, yes, my family is cooking, but I won't let you eat."

  ...

  After finally coaxing the patient away, two more came, two young men in their twenties and thirties. One of them had white hair on both sides, but his face looked young, so he couldn't recognize his age.

  Doctor Zhou asked: "You came to our hospital for hair treatment? Our hospital's Xiao Zhan is very knowledgeable about this. You are not very young, so why are your hair so gray?"

  The young man with white hair on both sides blushed angrily. Chen Jiajing said angrily: "I'm not here to treat hair. I'm a reporter from the provincial newspaper. My name is Chen Jiajing. I came here to interview your Dr. Zhan. Dr. Zhan is very scientific."

  "Interview with Dr. Zhan!" Reporters from the provincial newspaper came to interview! Dr. Zhou was shocked. Didn't Dr. Zhan just talk about science? Why did the newspapers come to interview him?

  Another person said: "I am from the county radio station."

  "Is Dr. Zhan here?"

  "Here, she and her family members are here." The couple was doing something in the family yard of their hospital.

  Chen Jia actually rubbed his nose: "What does it smell like? It's so fragrant."

  Xie Hui, who came from the radio station on the side, couldn't help but swallowed, "You are a hospital, not a state-owned hotel, right?"

  "Is there a restaurant next door to your hospital?"

  Dr. Zhou said: "Hey, you don't know, but our Dr. Zhan's husband is a cook."

  "ah?"

  "Right now, he is cooking in the backyard of our hospital. It's just the right time for you to come for the interview. Stay for a meal and try the cooking skills of the male family member."

  Xie Huiren was dumbfounded: "She's a cook, but, how did I hear that Dr. Zhan is a member of the military? She came here with the army."

  "Is it Dr. Zhan Ai Pingzhan?"

  Doctor Zhou: "..." It seems that everyone is prepared.

  Chen Jiajing said naturally: "Maybe she worked in the cooking class before her partner was married?"

  Dr. Zhou: "As expected of a reporter from a provincial newspaper, he really knows how to joke."

  Gu Sheng cooked a mushroom feast. Of course, in order to take care of Zhan Aiping, he grilled a fish separately and made other dishes for her, but the plates of wild mushrooms were really a "deadly" temptation, especially Miscellaneous fungus soup, and local chicken soup with chicken fir, the fragrant smell makes people cry for help.

  "You, you are Dr. Zhan, you are so young." Chen Jia was very surprised when he saw Zhan Aiping. He introduced himself: "I am a reporter from the provincial newspaper. I came here specially to interview Dr. Zhan this time. You The deeds of teaching science were praised by the superiors and had a great response among the masses, creating a trend of science..."

  Xie Hui also rushed to get to know Zhan Aiping: "Doctor Zhan, I am from the county radio station. Our radio station hopes to collect several of your scientific stories, compile them into manuscripts, and broadcast them to every village community through radio... "

  Zhan Aiping was also surprised to see them. These days, media people even come together, "Hello, hello."

  Dr. Zhou: "Why don't you guys talk first and we'll go have dinner."

  Under the temptation of delicious food, the matter of being famous in newspapers became not worth mentioning.

  Zhan Aiping: "This is not good. Let's eat together. Reporter Chen and Comrade Xie come together."

  Several people came to the backyard together, and when they saw a large table of wild mushrooms, Chen Jia turned pale, "This, these mushrooms can be poisoned and killed if you pick them up and eat them randomly."

  Xie Hui didn't care: "Eat it, I think they eat it every year. Reporter Chen, you must be a foreigner."

  Chen Jiajing: "I really don't dare to eat it."

  But the smell is so delicious.

  Dr. Zhou stared at his hair and sighed: "You are so young, you are so thoughtful. You are afraid of this and that. Look at how white your hair has become."

  "The hair on the top of my head has fallen out."

  Chen Jiajing: "..."

  Zhan Aiping came to his rescue: "Reporter Chen, if you don't want to eat the fungi, just eat other vegetables. I won't eat either. If my partner is poisoned, I will give him a needle, gastric lavage, and water, and then I will show you my medical skills." ."

  Gu Sheng: "...?"

  Several people nearby burst into laughter.

  Chen Jia actually blinked: "Then I'll eat it."

  Zhan Aiping: "?!"

  "Since the doctor is here, I will also try this mushroom." After all, it is rare and so fragrant.

  Xie Hui: "I'll eat it or die."

  Gu Sheng smiled and said to Zhan Aiping: "Daughter-in-law, look, let me tell you, eating wild mushrooms in the hospital feels very safe."

  Zhan Aiping: "..." There is a fart.

  Gu Sheng said: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."

  In fact, wild fungus poisoning is still a small probability event, and poisoning is generally not common.

  After a mushroom banquet was finished, Reporter Chen was too much to eat. He wanted to interview Gu Sheng about his experience in picking wild mushrooms in the mountains and how to identify them. He wanted to continue eating, but he hadn't eaten enough yet.

  Doctor Zhou clicked his tongue: "Some young people are really too high-spirited and dissatisfied."

  Meng Xiaoyun: "Are you very contented? Why don't you ask someone to go up the mountain tomorrow morning..."

  Dr. Zhou: "..."

  Xie Hui discussed business with Zhan Aiping, and Zhan Aiping agreed to contribute articles to the radio station. Xie Hui was extremely grateful to her: "Dr. Zhan, thank you so much. I hope you can write more good articles. We need this." Scientific stories are used to educate the public about illiteracy..."

  Chen Jia actually stopped pestering Gu Sheng and began to interview Zhan Aiping seriously, asking her: "What was your original intention when you thought of these scientific stories?"

  Zhan Aiping: "Original intention? It starts with me being said to be a monster from the city."

  "Ah?" Chen Jia's eyes widened.

  "They say that I deliver the baby in order to take the Zihe Che. As for me, I am an evil spirit. I want to take the Zi He Che to beautify my face and stay young forever."

  "Ah!" Chen Jia was stunned.

  Zhan Aiping: "...So I think everyone lacks some correct understanding of science."

  After Chen Jiajing finished the interview, he still had more to say. Compared with those reports on "expanding production", "forging forward bravely" and "progress of educated youth", Zhan Aiping's interview report was really wonderful.

  "Comrade Zhan, your science stories are so interesting. Can I attach two of them to the bottom of the report?"

  Zhan Aiping: "...Okay."

  Chen Jia actually hesitated and said: "Dr. Zhan, can you really cure hair?"

  Zhan Aiping became confident: "Of course, don't worry about that."

  After sending away Comrade Xie, the newspaper reporter and the radio station, Zhan Aiping wrote several stories about "science" during the days when Gu Sheng was on a business trip. Although Zhan Aiping's writing style was average and was just straightforward, she The best thing is that you are well-informed and have all kinds of stories and experiences at your fingertips.

  Zhan Aiping originally only wanted to write three or four articles for the radio station, but she remembered that ordinary people now lack physical and chemical knowledge, and she wanted to write more popular science stories.

  In addition, in the process of studying traditional Chinese medicine, she had seen and heard many outrageous stories about the use of traditional Chinese medicine remedies that delayed the disease, so she tried her best to write it down.

  By the time Gu Sheng came back, she had already written more than ten or twenty articles. After reading it, Gu Sheng kept laughing and couldn't stop laughing: "This science story of yours is really fun."

  What I wrote above is incredible, and every time the truth is revealed at the end, it leaves people speechless, as if - like this? Is that so? It turned out to be so.

  Gu Sheng sighed, he smiled and turned out the draft that Zhan Aiping had made before - the "Surgical Operation Techniques" framework, and then shook the manuscript of Zhan Aiping's "Science Stories", "Doctor Zhan, Doctor Zhan, what on earth are you doing?" Are you a doctor or a writer? After so many days away, how come your framework is still just a framework..."

  Zhan Aiping blushed and took the paper from his hand: "Isn't this writing slowly? There must be priorities. There are people who are in a hurry for manuscripts, so I will write more."

  Gu Sheng said: "If you write a few more articles and put them together, you can publish a book."

  Zhan Aiping: "...that's not the case."

  "Today a newspaper will come to you for an interview, tomorrow a radio station will come to you for a manuscript, and the day after tomorrow a publishing house will come to you to publish it."

  "It would be great if a publishing house really found me, and then my medical books would be published together." Zhan Aiping also published books in the past, but the books on traditional Chinese medicine were too niche, that is, they were familiar. In the circle, look at how many people in the master's sect.

  Who doesn't have some ambition when writing a book?

  As the saying goes, you have to become famous early.

  "I'm a doctor, not a writer."

  "Okay, okay, Doctor Zhan." Gu Sheng smiled and pinched her face, "Your report will be out next month. Then send the newspaper back to my parents for reading."

  "Don't - you must not." It was so terrible. Zhan Aiping thought of the content of the report and felt it was too embarrassing. It would be fine if it was circulated in Dian Province. If someone who knew her before saw it, Oh my god, help.

  "If I had known, I wouldn't have told the truth to reporters." She was said to be a female seductress, eating Zihe's car and so on. If her old comrades and friends saw her, my God, it would be too scary.

  --She used to be Zhan Aiping, a strong-willed female military doctor.

  Why is this kind of thing being interviewed?

  Gu Sheng smiled: "Reports must be true. You don't have correct ideas."

  Zhan Aiping: "...it's not you who co-authored the interview, the old mushroom collector Gu Sheng."

  "I'm waiting for the day when your wild mushroom poisoning is published in the newspapers."

  "Impossible, you can only see the fighting hero Gu Sheng."

  Zhan Aiping: "Humph."

  Gu Sheng picked up her scientific stories and read them over and over again. The more he read, the happier he became. Gu Sheng simply picked up the brush and added a few more illustrations, "When you really publish a book in the future, I will make you The subject's painting is also posted."

  Zhan Aiping: "...you drew it, you hahaha, you want to kill me with laughter."

  Gu Sheng is also talented in painting.

  Zhan Aiping didn't take these scientific stories seriously, because she felt that her literary talent was not very good. It would be better to write serious medical books, but she could not write quality stories. To be a writer, you need to be good at writing.

  *

  Gu Sheng was in a very good mood, but Captain Jiang was in a particularly bad mood.

  Captain Jiang stared at Gu Sheng, becoming more and more dissatisfied with him. This guy has been very proud this year. He was promoted to deputy regiment and married a beautiful wife who is a doctor. According to people in their camp, her sister-in-law's cooking is particularly delicious... ...

  Why are all the good things happening to him?

  "Gu Sheng, come here."

  Gu Sheng turned around and walked to Captain Jiang in a few steps, "What's wrong? Captain Jiang."

  Captain Jiang pulled him into a corner. Gu Sheng suspected that he might want his wife to get his hair done, so he was so cautious. Who knew that as soon as Captain Jiang opened his mouth, he said, "Ask your wife to introduce you to me." object."

  Gu Sheng's mouth twitched: "What?"

  "Shhhhhhh, I also want to tell people that your wife is determined to introduce you to me, so I reluctantly agreed to go and meet her."

  Gu Sheng: "...Is my wife the kind of person who desperately wants to introduce someone to others?"

  Captain Jiang lied: "I don't care about you, you have to help me solve the problem. Gu Sheng, you just left me to get married alone."

  He had offended all the people who introduced him to him before, trying to make him look fat, but now he wanted to find a partner, and he had to lose face.

  After Gu Sheng got married, he stabbed him the hardest. Even Wang Youli, who talked about pen pals, could marry an educated daughter-in-law who could also look at the stars and talk about the moon.

  "Who kept saying that he wanted to be a bachelor with me?"

  "You're the one who's so proud of yourself now, aren't you?"

  Chapter 40 is done

  Gu Sheng, who was said to be "proud in the spring breeze", folded his sleeves slowly, smoothed out the wrinkles, straightened his collar, put on his military cap, and said with a handsome face as cold as a knife, "Captain, I remember you said, You don't take a wife."

  "It's not necessary, it's really unnecessary." Gu Sheng patted Captain Jiang on the shoulder: "Don't follow the example of those vulgar men."

  "You said this yourself."

  Captain Jiang: "Gu Sheng, I used to treat you as my younger brother."

  "We brothers were swimming in the water together, why did you come ashore?"

  "You also have to be responsible for fishing me ashore."

  Gu Sheng hooked his fingers at him, and the two whispered: "... Then tell me the truth."

  Captain Jiang rolled his eyes: "What truth?"

  Gu Sheng said: "There is someone in your heart."

  Captain Jiang's eyes widened with fright: "..."

  "Since you said that we swam in the water together before, then there is someone in my heart, and you must also have someone in my heart. Otherwise, I have introduced you to so many people, and you didn't agree. It's not because you want to marry someone you don't want to marry. --"

  Captain Jiang raised his hand to cover his mouth, and his face turned red: "Hey, you thief, you have a clear conscience."

  All his worries were revealed by this kid.

  Captain Jiang originally thought that no one knew, but he didn't expect that he knew everything about this brat in front of him. Captain Jiang was so ashamed and angry that his face turned green, white, and red for a while.

  His stubborn old face is about to be lost.

  Gu Sheng: "..." How else can we set up a stage to sing?

  "Captain, you are quite thin-skinned."

  Captain Jiang: "You're going to piss me off."

  Really, no one who got married had a greater impact on him than Gu Sheng's marriage. His long-cherished wish finally came true, but he was still swimming in the water.

  "You know my secret now, you have to solve it for me!"

  Gu Sheng: "..." There is no such thing as robbing and selling.

  "Jiang Tuan, Xiao Gu, what are you two talking about?" At this time, a middle-aged male voice came from not far away. It was Sun Zhou, a male military doctor from the Tuan Health Team.

  Sun Zhou is an old military doctor who does not seek advancement. He is not a captain, nor does he seek promotion. He is just waiting to retire. He does have some hobbies on weekdays, and likes to work as a matchmaker with his wife.

  He once persuaded Captain Jiang to get married several times, but Jiang Tuan refused every time. Sun Zhou didn't believe that he couldn't bear this tough nut.

  Captain Jiang said firmly: "It's nothing."

  He added another layer of detail: "Do you think everyone is like you, thinking about those little things about husband and wife every day?"

  "Oh..." Sun Zhou deliberately deceived him: "I thought you were looking for Xiao Gu so that someone could introduce you to a wife."

  "Look, Xiao Gu is already married, why are you so stubborn?"

  "Are you asking him to find out how happy it is to have a wife and live a life where your wife and children are on the hot bed?"

  "Hmph." Captain Jiang snorted.

  "Really, Lao Jiang, if you really want to find a wife, you have to come to me." Dr. Sun smiled playfully: "I know several female military doctors. If you ask Xiao Gu's wife to introduce them to military doctors, why not come to me?"

  "As long as you buy me a drink and buy me a cigarette..."

  "Get out of here." Captain Jiang drove him away.

  Dr. Sun clicked his tongue twice: "Waiting for the day when you regret coming to beg me."

  After Dr. Sun left, Captain Jiang was incompetent and furious in front of Gu Sheng: "Believe it or not, believe it or not, I will send him to a remote health center sooner or later."

  In fact, it's really hard to find someone with seniority like Dr. Sun.

  Gu Sheng: "Pfft--"

  "Laughter." Captain Jiang glared at him. He raised his leg to kick Gu Sheng, but Gu Sheng dodged and almost lost his balance: "You, it's you, it's all your fault, I didn't even intend to You are the one who has a wife. You are the one who has been fooling around in front of me every day since you got a wife. You deserve a beating."

  "Captain, please speak according to your conscience. Since I got married, I have never shown off my wife in front of you, and I have never even mentioned it."

  "You never mentioned it." Captain Jiang said with a dark face, "But it's written all over your face - I live a very happy life, come and envy me."

  It's strange to say that Captain Jiang warned Gu Sheng not to show off his wife. Gu Sheng really didn't say a word, but the more he didn't say anything, the more curious Captain Jiang became, scratching his heart and lungs with curiosity.

  He went to inquire about the situation of the couple, and asked a man from the military hospital casually. He was so angry that he couldn't sleep.

  Gu Sheng also turned into a fucking infatuated person.

  The twins' father.

  His wife is pregnant with twins, and he is still an old bachelor.

  "Captain, you misunderstood. In fact, getting married doesn't do much good. Look at me now. I help anyone who can help at home. Now that my wife is pregnant, I cook the meals and I can't bear to let her wash the clothes. , I also wash the bowls--"

  Captain Jiang was stunned for a moment: "You came from our group, why are you such a coward?"

  In Captain Jiang's impression, if he marries a wife and returns home, of course the wife will do the laundry, cook and take care of the children.

  This Gu Sheng has a good family background and is handsome, but it is not a woman who is waiting for him.

  Gu Sheng: "Who makes me an infatuated person?"

  Captain Jiang: "Fuck you, stop showing off in front of me."

  No matter how big the problem is, having a daughter-in-law is great.

  "So it's fine if you don't marry a wife. Captain, look how cool you were before. Now I only have twenty yuan as pocket money every month, and I can't even afford to smoke -"

  "Wait a minute." Captain Jiang was very surprised: "You still have twenty yuan in pocket money."

  "Your wife is very generous."

  Captain Jiang thought that he still had 20 yuan in pocket money, which seemed to be enough.

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  "No, I said it wrong. I only have two dollars."

  Captain Jiang stared at him, and the two of them stared at each other. Comrade Jiang was the first to lose his temper: "I want to get married, so let your wife help me."

  "Captain, you have to take the initiative to fight for things like relationships." Gu Sheng pushed him with his elbow: "Tell me, who do you see in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital?"

  Gu Sheng could guess the approximate range.

  Captain Jiang came to his wife for help, and it was certainly not without purpose.

  Captain Jiang whispered vaguely: "Your wife is from the health center..."

  This was something Gu Sheng didn't expect, "I've been to their health center."

  "All the women in their hospital who should be married are married, and there is only one woman named Qin--"

  "Yes, that's the one named Qin."

  Gu Sheng: "I'm already ready to talk about marriage."

  "No, no, no, I'm not talking about the person named Qin in the hospital." Captain Jiang whispered in Gu Sheng's ear: "She has a sister."

  Gu Sheng: "You asked my wife to introduce you and her colleague's sister to someone?"

  "Yes." Having made his purpose clear, Captain Jiang hurriedly said: "Your wife is a woman. Let her use her sister as a breakthrough point to help me get the matter settled."

  "Good brother, you must pull me ashore."

  *

  "What a coincidence?" Gu Sheng told Zhan Aiping about the matter after he went back. Zhan Aiping really didn't expect such a coincidence. She chose a nearby health center. It turned out that the person that Captain Jiang liked was actually her. My colleague's sister.

  "Xiao Qin is going to discuss marriage with her partner recently. Am I going to pull a red line for her sister? Will it make their family happy?" Zhan Aiping held her cheek. She has lived for such a long time, and she has never had anyone. I introduced someone to her.

  She herself was straightforward and didn't know how to talk. When she met Gu Sheng, she just went straight to the point and said, "Hey, do you want to marry me?"

  Comrade Xiaozhan is very unsure of his emotional intelligence in marriage and love.

  "Your captain wants to ask me to hold the red thread..." Zhan Aiping couldn't help but said, "Are you desperate?"

  Gu Sheng: "It's because he was rushed to the hospital indiscriminately due to an acute illness."

  Zhan Aiping kicked him.

  Gu Sheng smiled and hugged her: "I'll help if I can, but forget it if I can't. After all, you can't force emotional matters."

  Zhan Aiping nodded: "I don't know what their situation is yet. I'll go find Xiao Qin first to find out."

  "This is my first time to be a matchmaker." Zhan Aiping was a little excited and eager to try.

  Gu Sheng: "Don't get excited yet."

  "Fifth brother, please give me some advice. You are more considerate."

  Gu Sheng: "..."

  "How about you just ask?"

  "What a bad idea you have." Zhan Aiping thought that it was rare to encounter this kind of errand, and she had to do it well. Even if she didn't succeed, she had to do it decently. If the woman is really unwilling, then she should give Jiang Tuan some advice. long.

  "You are also out of ideas. I'll go find a professional and ask."

  Zhan Aiping didn't have to go to work the next day, so she went to see Director Li Yuxia. The director of women was very happy when she saw her, "Xiao Zhan, why are you so anxious to find me?"

  Li Yuxia's heart that had sunk into the lake began to ripple again.

  Is this little exhibition finally in trouble?

  Sure enough, after the couple had a child, there were more conflicts.

  Zhan Aiping directly said: "Director Li, I just want to come to you to find out how to introduce someone to someone. I want to introduce someone to someone."

  Director Li was stunned: "You are so young, you still want to introduce someone to someone?"

  Usually these jobs are done by military wives with children. Young girls are the most disgusted with introducing partners to others. Nowadays, young people like to have free love. If you introduce partners to others, they will find it annoying.

  Even so, when you get older, you will be introduced to them by the organization.

  "Why can't I introduce someone to someone else?"

  Li Yuxia said: "You are still young and have not experienced much. You are still pregnant with a child. Don't think about introducing a partner to others. When you raise a child in the future and meet more people, you will naturally know which two are the best." Just make do."

  "After marriage, you cannot be short of daily necessities such as food, rice, oil and salt...you cannot learn these things,"

  "Dr. Zhan, you are still a bit young."

  Zhan Aiping: "..."

  Li Yuxia: "Go and experience it yourself first."

  --The couple should quarrel first and let her see.

  "You don't have any experience at all, and you still want to learn how to introduce someone to someone?"

  Unexpectedly, Director Li was very stubborn and insisted that she was inexperienced and not suitable to introduce people to others. Zhan Aiping was frustrated and had to leave.

  "Introducing someone to someone or asking a general question?"

  Li Yuxia was very proud to see her leaving. When Political Commissar Zhang came back, she ran to him and said, "Do you know what I heard today? Dr. Zhan from the Gu family said that he wanted to introduce someone to me."

  Political Commissar Zhang said: "Then did she say who she would introduce her to?"

  "She won't tell." Li Yuxia asked, but Zhan Aiping didn't say.

  "Perhaps he is introducing someone to Captain Jiang."

  Li Yuxia almost spit out her mouthful of water: "Introducing someone to Captain Jiang?"

  Political Commissar Zhang: "Yes, I heard from Old Sun that Captain Jiang has been very impetuous recently. He may be feeling spring."

  Li Yuxia: "...I don't believe it, and I won't believe it even if you beat me to death. Captain Jiang can't find anyone to introduce him to, so he can ask Dr. Zhan to introduce him."

  --Does this mean she doesn't use her matchmaker Li Yuxia as an onion?

  "I heard that I saw a military doctor."

  Li Yuxia suddenly realized: "Oh, that's no wonder."

  It turned out to be a military doctor. No wonder he was looking for Zhan Aiping. Zhan Aiping was a retired female military doctor.

  "How do you know so clearly?"

  Political Commissar Zhang said: "Old Sun said it, Military Doctor Sun."

  Li Yuxia frowned: "Why do you think Dr. Sun has nothing to do all day long? Why does he know everything?" He looked more like a women's director than she did.

  He is the one who leads people to introduce potential partners, and the other is the one who mediates the relationship between husband and wife. He is the female director with such a long hand.

  Political Commissar Zhang smiled slightly: "Military Doctor Sun said that he should care about the mental health of every officer and soldier."

  Li Yuxia: "..."

  In fact, these male officers, when they get together in private, can gossip better than their women, and they are so well-informed.

  "If Dr. Zhan comes to you, please help. Captain Jiang is getting older. It's time to get married. Little Gu is already married, which has a good promotion effect. Everyone can work together to bite Captain Jiang again." This is a tough nut to crack."

  "As long as he has this heart, he won't be afraid of not finding a partner."

  Li Yuxia nodded: "That's right."

  "This is also a task assigned to you by the organization. Arrange Captain Jiang's personal issues. This is an important matter to stabilize the rear."

  "Xiao Zhan is too young to be of any use. You still have to take action."

  "Yes, that's right." Li Yuxia nodded excitedly, she liked this kind of hard nut.

  As long as this man is determined to find a wife, she will definitely arrange one for him!

  "Why don't you take the initiative to ask Captain Jiang who he likes?" Political Commissar Zhang was particularly curious, scratching his head and ears curiously.

  Because Captain Jiang and Gu Sheng were too single in the past, the result was that Gu suddenly married a young girl and turned into an infatuated person, which was shocking; now Captain Jiang has sprouted new branches from the old tree, and there are many new branches. Everyone is watching.

  Is this shameless old bachelor really going to get a wife?

  "Okay, I'll wait for Xiaozhan to come to me again."

  Political Commissar Zhang: "What if she doesn't come to you?"

  "Yes, that's right. I will take the initiative to find her tomorrow and give her some advice. Director Li still has to take the initiative in this kind of thing."

  Li Yuxia became more and more excited, thinking that she wanted Xiao Zhan to see her Director Li's abilities.

  *

  It was a coincidence that Qin Yanfang was planning to get married recently. The man's family came over and stayed with a family in the town. Qin Yanfang's biological sister also came over.

  Zhan Aiping didn't know much about Qin Yanfang's family. She only knew that her family consisted of orphans and widowers . She had an old mother, a sister, and a younger brother. She said she wanted to discuss marriage, so she didn't go to her hometown, but went to the town. Yesterday, her sister Qin Lanfang came to the hospital and lived with Qin Yanfang.

  Zhan Aiping came to the health center to work the morning shift. Doctor Zhou ran over to her and said, "Xiao Qin's sister is here and she really wants to talk about marriage."

  "If she really gets married, Xiao Qin may have to be transferred."

  Zhan Aiping was confused: "You want to be transferred?"

  "It's possible. I heard from the man's family that he wants to work in the county town." Dr. Zhou thought for a while and said, "Xiao Qin should also find a way to transfer there, or live in separate places."

  "It seems that they were not married before because of this matter. They are in different towns. Xiao Qin seems unwilling to go to his side. Her sister...her sister should come to persuade her."

  According to Dr. Zhou, this young man would have better prospects of development in the county town. When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. It is human nature. If he were not an old man, he would not want to go up. After being transferred, I ended up living in a township health center.

  Qin Yanfang and Zhan Aiping, Dr. Zhou had long guessed that Zhan Aiping would not be able to stay for a few years, and she would have to be transferred sooner or later.

  "Xiao Qin has been here for a few years. It's close to her hometown. It's easy to take care of her when she goes back on weekdays. There are always some benefits to staying in the hospital..." When family members are sick and need medicine, it's convenient in the hospital. place.

  Xiao Qin's family is indeed inconvenient to leave.

  Zhan Aiping didn't see Qin Yanfang when she went to work. She guessed that she was on vacation and wanted to discuss marriage with the man's family. She sighed, thinking that she would not be able to be a matchmaker for the time being.

  My younger sister is talking about getting married. This matter has not been settled yet. How can I have the nerve to intervene and go to find a partner for her biological sister?

  The matter was urgent, Zhan Aiping thought it would be better to wait for Qin Yanfang's marriage to be settled before asking her about the situation of Qin Yanfang's sister Qin Lanfang. Her sister came to the hospital and she would go see her later.

  Not in a hurry.

  Zhan Aiping returned to the hospital's family room after work. She passed by Qin Yanfang's room and heard a lot of people's voices inside. It must have been a lot of guests. Zhan Aiping returned to her room, opened the door, and was about to cook. She ate the dish alone. It was a simple dish of roasted pumpkin, and she went back to eat Gu Sheng's small stove in the evening.

  After her meal was cooked, before she even touched her chopsticks, there was a noise outside. She heard Qin Yanfang's voice and went out to see what was going on.

  As soon as Zhan Aiping went out, she saw a lot of people standing at the door of Qin Yanfang's house. A young man, who was guessed to be Qin Yanfang's lover, had a straight face and a straight face, with naturally curly hair. Next to him were his parents and his younger brother. , a little fat ten-year-old boy.

  The person confronting the four of them was Qin Yanfang, and behind her stood a woman, leaning on a cane, looking timid and timid. She wanted to persuade her sister, but she didn't dare to step forward.

  --She is Qin Yanfang's sister Qin Lanfang?

  "Get lost! Get lost with me! Don't appear in front of me again!" Qin Yanfang pointed at several people and scolded them.

  "Fangfang, calm down first." Her partner reassured her.

  "Yes, Xiao Qin, calm down."

  "We want to have a good talk with you."

  ...

  Dr. Zhou and his wife also came out to check the situation. When they saw this situation, it was obvious that the marriage between the two families had broken down. Meng Xiaoyun said: "What happened? This is a marriage, not a feud."

  "Yes, yes, this sister-in-law is right." Qin Yanfang's partner's mother, Zhang Qiaomei, hurriedly spoke, "Yuan, please advise your partner to sit down and talk about anything. Yanfang, you and our child It's been so many years since we've been together, don't you think about him at all?"

  "This is a double blessing!"

  "Bah! Why don't you get married for such a good thing?"

  Meng Xiaoyun: "What's going on? What's going on?"

  Zhan Aiping also came over. She supported Qin Yanfang's sister Qin Lanfang. Qin Lanfang was dressed very simply, but she was also dressed up deliberately. Her hair was combed up, revealing a somewhat pale face.

  Her facial features are not outstanding, but Qin Lanfang's face makes people feel very comfortable, not ostentatious, not sharp, with a beauty as soft as a cloud.

  In fact, Qin Yanfang's appearance is more outstanding, but her sister's appearance is more attractive and comfortable, like a clear lotus in the water.

  "She hasn't agreed to let the two sisters marry together in the county and enjoy happiness. Sister, please help persuade her."

  Meng Xiaoyun: "What happened?"

  "We have also found a good match for her sister. He is the son of a small factory leader in the county. After her sister gets married, both of them can arrange to work in the factory. Yanfang, you and your sister should think about it carefully. , you two sisters have gone over, can you take your mother and your brother to the city together..." To them, the county seat is already a big place.

  Zhang Qiaomei said proudly, she felt that the Qin sisters would definitely agree, and it was also the Qin family's bad luck. Unexpectedly, the young leader and his wife fell in love with Qin Lanfang, and thought she looked comfortable, honest, and had inconvenient legs and feet. It's perfect to serve a man at home, and you can't run away.

  The young leader said that if the marriage is finalized and his family Xiaoyuan is helped to solve the job transfer problem, then both of their families will live in the county town, and they will have a good life in the future.

  This was obviously the best of both worlds, but Qin Yanfang refused to agree.

  "Sister, are you right?"

  When Meng Xiaoyun heard this, she didn't speak directly. Even a fool could hear it. Can such a great thing happen in this world?

  There must be something wrong with the little leader's son.

  Qin Yanfang was so angry that her eyes were red. She did not look at Zhang Qiaomei, but stared at her partner, Zhang Yuan. She had been dating Zhang Yuan for many years. They had known each other since high school and later studied in technical secondary school together. Talking about the partner and working now: "Eight years, eight years, I was dumbfounded to fall in love with a thing like you!"

  "Get out, all of you, get out." Qin Yanfang was so angry that her hands were shaking, and she wanted to take a broom and drive them all out.

  Zhang Qiaomei winked at Zhang Yuan and told him not to speak, "Xiao Qin, think about your family's situation, and then think about your sister's situation. With her condition, she cannot have a child and marry the son of a small leader's family. That's right, her husband's family will definitely not treat her badly."

  Qin Lanfang looked very anxious. She looked at her sister worriedly, stepped forward and said, "Otherwise, I-"

  Just get married.

  "Stop talking, Pingping, stop her." Qin Yanfang picked up the broom on the side and swung it directly at Zhang Qiaomei. Zhang Qiaomei was unexpectedly hit in the face by her and was scraped bloodshot by the broom.

  "You're the one who married your daughter to a fool. This is a double happiness for your family!"

  Qin Yanfang hated her to the extreme. The Zhang family said it was okay to marry her, but her sister would have to marry him, and she would have to marry a fool.

  Just like that, that bastard Zhang Yuan actually agreed!

  She also advised her that this way they could all live a "good life", good life be damned.

  "How dare you hit my mother!" Zhang Yuan's younger brother Zhang Cheng was standing next to him. The fat boy suddenly rushed towards Qin Lanfang. Qin Lanfang was startled. Zhan Aiping supported her with one hand and copied her with the other hand. She picked up her crutch and hit Zhang Cheng's calf with a bang. He fell to the ground, tears and nose bleeding.

  When Zhang Qiaomei saw this, she also became angry: "Your family is crazy. It's a good idea for a lunatic to marry a fool!"

  "Bah!" Qin Yanfang spat in her face.

  "Do you think my sister has no one? My sister has someone she likes. He is a regiment leader or an officer. What the hell are you? Let your daughter marry a fool."

  When Qin Lanfang heard what she said, her face suddenly turned pale and her lips trembled.

  Zhang Qiaomei seemed to have heard a joke: "Just like your sister, she is a cripple and can't have children. Which leader will marry her? The leader of the toilet group?"

  She was convinced that Qin Yanfang was lying. If Qin Lanfang really had a good partner, why did she delay telling her until now?

  Must be talking nonsense!

  "Captain Jiang, Commander Jiang Rui Jiang, he is a regimental-level cadre."

  Zhang Qiaomei was stunned, Qin Yanfang was also stunned, Qin Lanfang was dumbfounded, and everyone around them was stunned. They all looked at the person who said this, Zhan Aiping.

  Zhan Aiping said: "It's a coincidence. I came to marry their family today. Her sister and Captain Jiang are about to have something good happen."

  Zhang Qiaomei said: "Who are you?"

  "Dr. Zhan, have you heard of it?"

  Zhang Qiaomei has actually heard of it. Dr. Zhan is a famous celebrity in the county and town. It has been widely spread recently. She is highly educated, knowledgeable in science, a retired female military doctor, and a family member of an army officer.

  What she said was so conclusive that Zhang Qiaomei was a little unsure.

  Is there really such a thing as Captain Jiang?

  "Hey, your sister really has a good partner. Why didn't you tell us earlier?" Zhang Qiaomei laughed: "Then we will wait. If your sister can really marry a group leader, then our two families will continue to get married."

  "Xiao Qin, if you two sisters remain calm, this is obviously a double blessing."

  "If you can't marry the leader, you can marry the son of the younger leader. Let's go to the county to live together. Don't be so stupid. Your sister is here to enjoy the blessings." Zhang Qiaomei didn't want to get into trouble with the Qin sisters. She still hoped that I hope Qin Lanfang can marry a fool and bring benefits to their family.

  "When you figure it out, you can call Xiaoyuan. We don't blame you for your emotional excitement today. Our Zhang family are all reasonable people." Wait until she really enters the door, then slowly deal with her.

  When Zhang Yuan left, he looked at Qin Yanfang: "Fangfang, I hope you can think more about the two of us..."

  "Our relationship has lasted eight years and cannot be given up easily."

  "Just...compromise for me once."

  Qin Yanfang gave him a broom: "Get out, get out of here! Don't let me see you again."

  The Xu family left, and Zhang Qiaomei turned back and smiled before leaving, because she knew that the Qin sisters would definitely agree.

  Her sister had clearly intended to move just now, so there was no Captain Jiang, she must have been a liar.

  As long as Qin Lanfang agrees to marry the fool, let the two sisters be proud first.

  Qin Yanfang put down the broom, rubbed her nose, and took two deep breaths, "Dr. Zhou, please stop urging me to get married. I've chosen the wrong person. I will stay in our health center from now on. I won't go anywhere." Go, I still have to wait to be allocated a house."

  Dr. Zhou nodded: "Yes, yes, we will allocate apartments to each other later!"

  Meng Xiaoyun sighed. There was no right or wrong in this kind of thing. In fact... from Qin Yanfang's point of view, it was a good thing for her that her lame sister agreed to marry a fool.

  Although that man is a fool, aren't his parents still little leaders? When the time comes, they will be picked up as a family to live in the county town. Qin Yanfang will be able to marry her partner, and her sister and brother-in-law will also be there.

  In a sense, everyone was indeed happy, but Qin Yanfang couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

  Meng Xiaoyun gave Dr. Zhou a look and told him to stop talking. This kind of thing is something that outsiders can't talk nonsense about. They are afraid that Qin Yanfang will not agree today, but tomorrow... she will change her mind.

  Qin Yanfang turned her head. She did not look at Qin Lanfang, but forced a smile on her face and looked at Zhan Aiping: "Dr. Zhan, thank you very much just now. We have a good understanding and cooperate with me."

  She just said those words casually, thanks to Zhan Aiping who continued it for her.

  Zhan Aiping: "I didn't cooperate, I told the truth."

  "What?" Qin Yanfang was stunned, and Qin Lanfang on the side also looked at Zhan Aiping in surprise.

  "Captain Jiang is indeed a real person, and I was indeed hired by him to be a matchmaker to match up your sister." Zhan Aiping didn't play with those silly things, she just played straight.

  Qin Yanfang looked at Qin Lanfang: "Is that Captain Jiang?"

  Qin Yanfang only knew that there was such a person, but she didn't know his real name.

  Qin Lanfang nodded hesitantly.

  Qin Lanfang has known Captain Jiang for many years. When Captain Jiang was still a young soldier, he once asked for water at her house. At that time, the two of them were just strangers.

  Later, we met again after a few years. He had already divorced, and his first wife was no longer at home. Her hair was bald and white. When we met, we exchanged a few words.

  I met him by chance in the past two years and let me say a few words.

  Qin Lanfang also told him the rural method of treating baldness. He said that even after using her method, hair still couldn't grow on the top of his head, and asked her if there was any other way...

  Captain Jiang also joked with her, saying that he could not grow hair on his head, was disliked by others, and could not find a wife, and asked her if she would marry him.

  Qin Lanfang was shocked, because she was lame, in poor health, infertile, and an illiterate village girl. Unlike her sister who could read, how could she marry him.

  She is in poor health, cannot have children, and has to spend money on her medical treatment. Even the country people are not willing to marry her.

  Even if he couldn't grow hair on his head, he still wasn't from the same world as her.

  "He, he will regret it. How can I be worthy of him? I am a cripple and I can't have children. Little sister, I have no hope in this life. You and Zhang Yuan--"

  Qin Yanfang: "Sister--"

  "Stop!" Zhan Aiping raised her hand to stop the two sisters: "I should have spoken from the perspective of a matchmaker, but as a doctor, Sister Qin, I don't think you have any disease that prevents you from having a baby. I just gave you After the examination, who said you can't have children? You are just weak and need to be raised."

  "People's emotions and moods will affect the body. Sister Qin, don't pretend to be too busy and be happy."

  "Besides, your leg can still be treated. Although it won't be back to normal, it can be restored to the point where you don't need crutches."

  Although Zhan Aiping came to tell people about her mate, seeing Qin Lanfang's situation, she felt that she should say something else first.

  Qin Lanfang was stunned: "...there is no need to treat it."

  Country people are most afraid of medical treatment, and they will not go to a doctor if they can. She is like this, even if her legs and feet are inconvenient, she can still make do with her life.

  Qin Yanfang was anxious: "Treat! Why can't it be cured?"

  Qin Lanfang: "If it can't be cured, don't waste that money. I'm fine with it."

  Zhan Aiping: "I can treat you. Let's do this. I'll treat you. All you have to do is pay for the medicine. You go talk to Captain Jiang about a partner, so that I can complete the task."

  If this can complete the matchmaker's mission, it will be quite easy.

  Qin Lanfang's face turned red: "No, no, no..."

  "Chengchengcheng!!!" Qin Yanfang agreed immediately, "I have broken up with that bitch man now, and we will never see each other again. You go find me a partner! I will supervise you every day to find a partner! I have been talking to you for eight fucking times. You must negotiate with me for my new partner!"

  "If my sister doesn't get married, I won't get married!"

  The Qin family has two sisters, a widowed mother, a younger brother, and a big yellow dog. Qin Lanfang is naturally introverted and timid. When she thinks of a grown man like Jiang Rui, she feels scared, embarrassed, and a little subtle. expectations...

  She had always been withdrawn.

  Qin Lanfang is not young, already thirty, but she is timid and still looks like a little girl.

  "Then I'll tell Captain Jiang when I get back that you agreed to talk to him about a date."

  Qin Yanfang decided: "That's it!"

  Qin Lanfang said nothing, the tips of her ears turned red: "..."

  Seeing this situation, Zhan Aiping thought that if she didn't speak, she would be acquiescing. She was not a careless person, so there was no need to force others to say it.

  "...Sure." Seeing that Zhan Aiping didn't speak, Qin Lanfang was afraid that she might have misunderstood, so she added in a low voice.

  After she finished speaking, her whole face turned red.

  Zhan Aiping smiled: "That works!"

  She was quite successful as a matchmaker.

  In the evening, Zhan Aiping was overjoyed and excited as she sat in the car returning to the camp. She felt that Captain Jiang and Qin Lanfang might really make it.

  --She showed that Aiping had so many red threads on her body.

  The first time you told someone about your partner, it was done.

  Go home and tell Gu Sheng to tell Captain Jiang that he has agreed to a date.

  Back at the camp, Zhan Aiping got out of the car, refreshed and excited, and couldn't wait to tell Gu Sheng about it.

  When they arrived in their yard, there was no one in the house. Gu Sheng hadn't come back yet. Zhan Aiping went to feed the chickens and ducks. Not long after, Director Li Yuxia and Director Li strolled over.

  "Xiao Zhan, Doctor Zhan."

  "Director Li, what's wrong?"

  Li Yuxia was very excited: "As for what you said yesterday, you helped introduce someone to someone."

  "Let me teach you. I'll teach you how to introduce someone to someone."

  Zhan Aiping shook her head: "No need, I have already negotiated it for you!"

  It is estimated that this is the first time, but there will be no second time. There are so many sisters-in-law in the camp to introduce people to others, who would look for her out of their minds? That is to say, Captain Jiang's brain circuit is different.

  No need to learn.

  "You, you helped people negotiate?" Li Yuxia was shocked.

  Zhan Aiping nodded: "Yes."

  Li Yuxia was in disbelief: "You, you helped Captain Jiang conclude the negotiation?"

  Zhan Aiping was also very surprised: "You...you also know that it is Captain Jiang?"

  Did Captain Jiang find someone else?

  Li Yuxia was dumbfounded: "Is it really Captain Jiang?"

  Zhan Aiping: "?"
