Yun Jingqi put her hands in her pockets and walked in front of her younger brother. "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Yun Laohu smiled and waved her hand. "Come, let's talk quietly."
"Little one, how old are you? Why are you still talking quietly?"
Yun Jingqi narrowed her eyes and smiled. In her memory, her younger brother had not been in such a good mood for a long time.
She sat aside. "I'm listening."
Yun Jingting leaned forward and lowered her voice. "Aren't you working at the Public Security Bureau? I want to ask you to help me find out about Mi Xaing 'er's mother's whereabouts. What happened to her in the past few years when she went missing? How is she doing outside? Also, if you can help her, you must do your best so that Mi Xaing' er can rest assured."
Yun Jingqi really did not expect her domineering younger brother to be so gentle when he was being attentive. She nodded. "I know, I'll definitely do it for you."
She hesitated for a moment. "Brother, what if Mi Xaing 'er's mother's problem is very serious? You have to know that in this world, there must be a reason behind a living person's disappearance for a few years without any reason. Are you prepared for the worst?"
Yun Laohu leaned back on the pillow. Although he said it casually, he seemed to have thought it through carefully. "What should I prepare for? As a man, the only thing I have to do is to protect Mi Xaing 'er with all my might."
Once the ambulance left …
Mi Xaing 'er returned to Siyuan Village from the mountain in a daze. She did not know how she entered the house. She sat down on the kang bed with a "bang" and was still in a daze. Her mind was filled with the dark red patch on Yun Jingting's trousers. Until the courtyard door opened, and someone said loudly, "Xiang' er, Xiang 'er is home, right?"
Only then did she wake up from her dream. She looked over and saw Xu Dongsheng standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his back and a jacket draped over his shoulders.
He immediately stood up and went out to welcome him. "Village Chief, why are you here?"
"Ah, your Big Brother is back. He asked me to pass you a message. He said that Head Of Yun has a few stitches on her leg and will be staying in the hospital for a few days. He asked you not to miss her." He looked at Mi Xaing 'er from the corner of his eyes and smiled. "I heard from your Big Brother. Why? Are you and Head Of Yun together again?"
"That's not true." Mi Xaing 'er immediately explained, "You can't spread rumors like that. I went up the mountain with Brother Xu out of the spirit of humanitarian aid, to save lives and heal the wounded."
Xu Dongsheng nodded seriously. "Yes, yes, you're right. At first, you were doing humanitarian work. Later, the Military Commissar stopped you from helping the wounded and dying. Why did you still rush up the mountain?"
Ah
Mi Xaing'er is out of words.
She blinked her big eyes and asked, "Village Chief, what are you doing here?"
Xu Dongsheng smiled proudly and did not want to make things difficult for her. "Ah, there are two things."
He stretched out two fingers and coughed softly. "First, it's about the matter of you entering the city to study. I've already submitted the materials for a few days, but the County Health Bureau has not given any approval. This is a little unusual. I was wondering if you should take two bottles of wine and go over to see the person in charge."
After he finished speaking, he put his hands in front of him and passed the floral bag in his hands to her. "Here, I've already prepared the wine for you. Take it."
This is too benevolent!
Mi Xaing 'er immediately rejected it. "I can't do that."
"Why not? It's just two bottles of wine. It's not considered bribery. Some things still have to be done. Take it and be obedient."
Without waiting for Mi Xiang 'er's answer, he put the wine on the ground and talked about the second thing, "You go to the county tomorrow. By the way, stew a chicken for Yun Tuan. I've already prepared it for you. Consider it as the village's reward for the army. After all, Yun Tuan was injured while repairing the canal for us. The village can't ignore it. I'll send you as a representative to express our sympathy."
Mi Xaing 'er understood that this was Xu Dongsheng's kindness. He wanted her to take care of both her personal and private matters.
Duke
Okay.
Personal matters?
She was a little embarrassed. She wanted to reject him, but she swallowed her words.
Don't say that.
She really wanted to see how Yun Jingting was doing.
Was his injury serious?
How was the ward?
Did he eat well?
Did he drink well?
Did he sleep well?
She would not feel at ease if she did not see it with her own eyes.
She could not help but nod. "Okay, I'll enter the city tomorrow morning."
The next day
Mi Xaing 'er woke up early to stew the chicken. She put a lot of ingredients, such as scallions, ginger slices, pepper, and half a wild radish to add flavor. She stewed it for more than an hour with a small fire. She carefully skimmed off the oil on it, then stewed it slowly until the chicken was boneless. She then put it in a thermos flask and entered the county.
After getting out of the car, she did not hesitate and went straight to the hospital.
She entered the hall and asked about the ward. She carried the chicken soup and slowly walked up to the second floor. Just as she walked to the door, she heard someone talking inside.
Yun Jingting chuckled and said in a relaxed tone, "Division Commander Liang, I only have such a minor injury, and you still came to the hospital to visit me. You're making me feel embarrassed."
Division Commander Liang
Yes
It could be said that this teacher had put in a lot of effort in coming to visit him today.
Yesterday
After Commander Yun left his son's place, he deliberately turned to his office and simply asked about the work of the army. He did not say anything important. After sitting for less than ten minutes, he got up. Division Commander Liang walked him out for two miles. In the end, he asked with a flat stomach, "Commander, how do you think you should approve Tiger's marriage report?"
Yun Mocheng looked up at the sky and answered indifferently, "You're his direct superior. Why are you asking me about this? I don't participate in the decision of an organization of your level!"
After saying that, he left.
Division Commander Liang had to figure out his superior's intentions. After thinking for a long time, he came to a conclusion. The commander did not agree to the marriage!
It was obvious.
If he agreed, he would just nod. There was no need to say so many high-sounding words.
He did not want to offend people in front of his son and left it to him, the division commander.
There was no other way.
He had to think about the chief and be anxious about the chief.
Therefore, when he came early this morning, he had already made up his mind not to directly offend Yun Laohu and try to make him cancel the marriage automatically.
He cleared his throat. "Ahem, Tiger, your regiment's progress in building the canal this time is the first. Now, you took the lead to protect your comrades and got injured. This kind of glorious act must be widely praised and publicized. The military region is already considering recording your merit and setting an example for everyone to learn from. You must do a good job!"
Yun Jingting pursed his lips and smiled. "I really don't take it to heart. The progress is the credit of the entire regiment. Even if I grew three heads and six arms, I wouldn't be able to build a canal that is dozens of kilometers long!"
He raised his eyebrows slightly. "Division Commander Liang, since you're here, there's something I want to talk to you about openly!"
Outside the door.
When Mi Xaing 'er heard this, he seemed to have realized something. He stopped in his tracks and stood to the side curiously.
— — Digression — —
Speaking of which, after Tiger finished his family's ideological work, he started to move about the organization again. What a good man, he really put in a lot of effort.
Ahem, I'm wondering if there will be two updates every day from now on.
