Chapter 120 Meeting
Shen Hangzhi looked at the two people beside him with gentle eyes, his lips slightly upturned, revealing a warm smile.
She nodded gently, her voice low and warm, and said slowly, "Yes, Grandpa's health is recovering very well, so I rushed back."
As he spoke, he slightly raised his head, his gaze sweeping over the troops in front of him, his eyes filled with emotion.
The military today has undergone tremendous changes compared to what I remember.
The number of personnel has increased significantly, with energetic figures bustling about the camp.
The size of the entire unit has also expanded considerably, with new barracks neatly arranged and training grounds much wider, presenting a thriving scene.
The three walked side by side toward the military base. Along the way, Shen Hangzhi asked her about the situation of the military.
Upon arriving at the hospital, before Shen Hangzhi could even settle into his chair, he saw Su Yating hurrying towards him carrying a pile of things.
Seeing this, Xia Zhi understood and stood up, tactfully leaving the room and heading straight to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic.
At this moment, Chen Yang was sitting leisurely in a chair, basking in the warm sunlight, and squinting his eyes contentedly.
Hearing Xia Zhi's footsteps, he only opened his eyes slightly, glanced in her direction, and then lazily closed them again, continuing to enjoy this rare moment of leisure.
Since Xia Zhi returned, he seemed to have found his pillar of support and lived a carefree and leisurely life with peace of mind.
Xia Zhi walked briskly toward Lu Yan'an.
Lu Yan'an was intently organizing the medicinal herbs. The herbs in front of her were arranged neatly, and the crushed herbs beside her were also processed very meticulously.
A hint of appreciation flashed in Xia Zhi's eyes, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly as she said softly, "Yan An, you learn quite quickly. You've done a good job."
Upon hearing the praise, Lu Yan'an's face immediately lit up with a bright smile. Her eyes crinkled as she sweetly replied, "It's all thanks to my sister-in-law's excellent teaching. If it weren't for her patient guidance, I wouldn't have been able to learn so quickly."
Xia Zhi smiled and nodded, then turned around to attend to her own business.
"By the way, Yan'an, tomorrow is market day. Let me take you with me." Xia Zhi suddenly stopped what she was doing, turned around and said to Lu Yan'an.
Lu Yan'an's eyes lit up instantly, filled with surprise and anticipation, her voice brimming with joy: "Really? Thank you, sister-in-law!"
When she was at home, she rarely went to the market more than a few times a year. Her parents always felt that it would be a waste of money for her to go, and that it would be better to save the money for her future education.
The next morning, Xia Zhi rode the somewhat old but very sturdy bicycle with Lu Yan'an on the back seat, and the two headed towards the market.
Along the way, Lu Yan'an's laughter was as clear and melodious as a silver bell, echoing on the country road.
"Yan An, see if there's anything we need at the market, let's buy it together."
Inside the supply and marketing cooperative, Xia Zhi whispered to Lu Yan'an beside her.
Lu Yan'an's gaze was drawn to the neatly arranged fountain pens in the cabinet, and a hint of excitement appeared in her eyes.
But soon, somewhat reluctantly, she looked away and pointed to the relatively inexpensive ballpoint pen next to her, saying, "Sister-in-law, can I buy one of these? My pen is almost out of ink."
Xia Zhi glanced in the direction she was pointing, nodded slightly, and then asked, "Anything else?"
Lu Yan'an shook her head somewhat awkwardly, not daring to ask for more, only saying she wanted a pen and a notebook. Xia Zhi, however, seemed to see through her thoughts and took some more stationery. Seeing this, Lu Yan'an was so frightened that she quickly waved her hand to refuse: "Sister-in-law, I... I can't use so many."
Xia Zhi smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, I'll need it too. It's better to buy more than necessary."
After saying that, Xia Zhi picked out some other daily necessities, and the two of them walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative carrying large and small bags.
Lu Yan'an carefully held the wrapped-up items in her hands, watching Xia Zhi's retreating figure with eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
In her heart, her sister-in-law was simply amazing. Not only was she highly skilled in medicine, but she was also able to earn her own money. She was a role model whom she admired immensely.
Meanwhile, in the market, Qiao Sheng was like a headless fly, anxiously wandering around in the crowd.
[System, do you even know where Gu Yun Shen is? I've been looking for him for ages and still haven't seen him.]
As Qiao Sheng struggled through the crowded throng, she anxiously communicated with the system in her mind.
Her hair was disheveled from being jostled by the crowd, with a few strands falling beside her cheeks, making her look somewhat disheveled, and an expression of annoyance appeared on her face.
[Host, Gu Yunshen is at the supply and marketing cooperative. He wants to buy books but doesn't have the money.] The system's voice rang in Qiao Sheng's mind.
Qiao Sheng sighed helplessly and had no choice but to squeeze towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, Gu Yunshen was pacing back and forth with a conflicted expression, his eyes revealing a sense of embarrassment and helplessness.
His gaze swept across the shop window of the supply and marketing cooperative, finally settling on a few books and stationery items that caught his eye. His Adam's apple bobbed, but he still didn't have the courage to go into the store.
Just then, he saw Xia Zhi and Lu Yan'an walk out of the supply and marketing cooperative. His eyes lit up as if he had seen a savior, and he quickly walked over.
"Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi, for the sake of our past friendship, could you lend me some money?" Gu Yun Shen's voice carried a hint of urgency and pleading.
Xia Zhi stopped in her tracks, her gaze falling indifferently on Gu Yun Shen's slightly disheveled face. A mocking smile played on her lips.
"What, wasn't the lesson from that day profound enough? Haven't you learned your lesson?"
Gu Yunshen's eyes flickered a few times. Recalling the scene of Xia Zhi severely teaching him a lesson that day, he couldn't help but feel a wave of fear.
The family members are still in bed recovering from their injuries.
He gritted his teeth and said, forcing himself to speak, "Zhi Zi, we can let bygones be bygones about what happened that day. Could you lend me some money? I've run out of paper and pens, and I only came to town because I had no other choice."
"No." Xia Zhi coldly uttered two words, then turned and left with Lu Yan'an.
Lu Yan'an secretly glanced at Xia Zhi's expression and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xia Zhi didn't pay much attention to Gu Yun Shen.
Although she was young, she knew some of the grudges and entanglements between them.
Gu Yunshen watched Xia Zhi's receding figure, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly and made a silent vow in his heart.
Once he gets into university, he'll definitely teach this woman a lesson!
Just then, Qiao Sheng rushed to the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative and immediately saw Gu Yun Shen standing there.
