She heard the sound of footsteps, and a person slowly walked into the courtyard.
Mi Xaing 'er turned her head to take a look and could not help but be stunned. Yun Jingting walked over with the hazy moonlight. He was in his military uniform, and there was a smile in his deep eyes. Although his leg was injured and he walked slightly unsteadily, it did not affect his straight posture.
Xu Dongsheng saw him and quickly went up to him. "Head Of Yun, why are you here? I thought you were still in the hospital!"
Yun Jingting smiled kindly. "I'm still in the hospital. It's better not to have such a small injury. After lying in the hospital for a day, I feel that all my bones are aching. I strongly requested the organization to return to the team as soon as possible!"
"Then you're going back to the mountain to fix the canal?"
"Yes." Yun Jingting quickly glanced at Mi Xaing 'er, but his words were still directed at Village Chief Xu. "I'm going up the mountain tonight. Before I leave, I came to say goodbye to you and to thank you for the chicken soup you sent over!"
"What are you thanking for? You were injured for the sake of us commoners. You were even willing to risk your life. It's nothing for us to send you a bowl of chicken soup!" Xu Dongsheng was perceptive and waved his hand. "It's getting late. I should go back to eat. You guys can talk first!"
Yun Jingting was polite. "Don't. Village Chief, you must have something to say since you specially came to look for Mi Xaing 'er. You guys can talk about business first!"
Xu Dongsheng pondered for a moment. In his heart, he was certain that the two people in front of him were husband and wife. Mi Xaing 'er was wronged. Of course, there was no need to hide it from Yun Laohu. "Yes, I'm done talking about my matter. It's just that she can't go to school in the future. She still has to work in the fields and earn work points. Don't you think so?"
Yun Jingting frowned. He knew that there was a story here. "What's wrong? Who took the spot?"
He had experienced many things and reached such a position at such a young age. Other than his merits, he was also smart. He guessed the crux of the matter with a single guess.
Xu Dongsheng did not hide the truth from him. "Sun Weiyu, from the looks of it, the mother and daughter pair went behind my back and directly found someone from the top. As for what tricks they used, I'm still a little confused. To be honest, I really didn't expect Yu Hongyan to be so capable. I don't know who she knows in the county …"
Yun Jingting nodded and said, "There's no hurry. The truth will come out sooner or later."
Mi Xaing'er looked at him. What a coincidence! What he said was the same as what he thought!
Is this the so-called telepathy?
She was shocked by her own thoughts and hurriedly averted her gaze. She seemed to have nowhere to put her hands. She twisted her big braids and curled her fingers around the ends of her hair. Her actions had the unique shyness of a girl.
Yun Jingting glanced at her and couldn't take his eyes off her. The woman's fair skin looked like it had been soaked in milk under the moonlight. It looked especially alluring.
No one spoke in the courtyard. Xu Dongsheng coughed lightly. "I'll go back first then …"
He put his hands behind his back and slowly walked out of the main door.
The night breeze was slightly chilly.
The bright moon had just risen.
The two of them looked at each other quietly. It was Mi Xaing'er who spoke first. Her voice rippled in the breeze and sounded particularly sweet. "You're really stubborn. You haven't even stayed in the hospital for a day. Why are you in such a hurry to go back to the army? What if your wound gets infected?"
Yun Jingting listened to her half-complaining, half-concerned words and felt pleased. "It's really nothing. When I was on the battlefield in the past, my waist was cut by shrapnel. At that time, I couldn't even stand up. Didn't I still manage to pull through? I'm young and recover quickly. This kind of injury is nothing to me …"
He looked carefully at Mi Xaing'er and saw that she didn't look upset or angry. He couldn't help but be curious. "You're not angry, right? Don't keep the matter of the quota to yourself. If you're unhappy, you can tell me …"
Mi Xaing'er lowered her head and didn't say a word.
What was there to say?
Grumbling?
Complaining?
Could it solve the problem?
Yun Jingting admired her silence and calmness in his heart, but at the same time, his heart ached for her stubbornness. He couldn't help but take a few steps forward and stand beside her. His voice was low and gentle. "Mi Xaing'er, if you really want to go to the city to study, I can help you think of a way …"
Mi Xaing'er quickly raised her head and looked into the man's dark eyes. "Don't. There's no need. I don't believe it. If I lose the quota this time, I'll never be able to make a name for myself in the future. All roads lead to Rome. As long as I'm determined to study medicine, no one can stop me …"
Yun Jingting was a decisive person, and he wasn't a person who dawdled. He didn't say anything else, but he made up his mind. He had to find out what exactly happened in between!
Mi Xaing'er saw that he wasn't talking, so she glanced at his leg from the corner of her eye. "Can you keep standing with this injury? Come in and sit. I'll cook …"
Without waiting for his reply, she turned around and walked towards the kitchen. "I'll cook some eggs for you …"
Yun Jingting was tall and had long arms. He didn't move his feet and grabbed her. "Don't, don't be busy …"
It wasn't intentional …
The man's strong and large palm first held her delicate wrist. In the end, he stopped there and couldn't bear to let go.
Mi Xaing'er struggled slightly. Fortunately, the night hid the blush on her face.
Yun Jingting stubbornly didn't let go. His voice was so low that it was almost a whisper. "Mi Xaing'er, take good care of yourself while I'm away. Oh, and wait for me to come back …"
Wait for me to come back …
There was clearly a hidden meaning in his words.
Mi Xaing'er raised her head and looked at him …
Under the moonlight, Yun Jingting raised one of his eyebrows and smiled. He suddenly reached out his other hand and quickly stroked her head twice. He had an urge to hug her in his arms. He leaned forward and paused. It was as if he had used all his strength to squeeze out two words. "I'm leaving …"
He turned around and didn't look back. His tall and sturdy figure slowly disappeared into the night.
Mi Xaing'er stared blankly at his figure that was getting further and further away.
Suddenly, she felt that the spring night's wind was getting warmer, and it was actually blowing on her cheeks.
