I enlisted four times! My former unit blacklisted me.

One hour later.

The disinfectant feeding in the ward was replaced by a rich aroma of meat.

The aroma of braised pork belly relentlessly wafted into Wu Hanfeng's nostrils.

"It's delicious!"

Wu Hanfeng sat dejectedly on the bed, staring angrily at the culprit—Chen Zhiyuan.

Chen Zhiyuan and Zhou Haibo sat on either side of Wu Hanfeng, each holding a plate, smacking their lips and eating heartily.

The two of them looked absolutely delighted.

"Erniu, your cooking skills are getting better and better! This braised pork melts in your mouth!"

"It smells so good!"

Zhou Haibo picked up a piece and deliberately twirled it in front of Wu Hanfeng.

Wu Hanfeng stared intently at the crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside fried pork tenderloin, his mouth watering uncontrollably.

The next second, the piece of pork tenderloin was in Zhou Haibo's stomach.

Liu Yang sat on a small stool, eating fried eggplant fritters one after another.

"The cooks in your kitchen are truly exceptional. These eggplant fritters are crispy, fragrant, and the perfect size. I've never had such delicious eggplant fritters before."

The three of them surrounded Wu Hanfeng, enjoying their meal immensely.

They would also exchange their tastes from time to time.

Wu Hanfeng looked at the bowl in his hand with a worried expression.

Rice porridge.

Boiled vegetables.

What kind of miserable life are they living?

He looked at Wang Erniu with a wronged expression.

"Erniu".

Wang Erniu wiped his hands with his apron, looked up and asked, "What's up, squad leader? Are you satisfied with the food?"

Wu Hanfeng looked at the bowl in his hand.

"Erniu, this isn't a sick person's meal, it's clearly a meal meant to remind us of the bitter past."

Wang Erniu said, "Brother Feng, you're a patient. Patients should eat light meals with less oil and salt to rest better. You can't eat anything too greasy."

Chen Zhiyuan nodded in agreement.

"Yes, you're a patient." He picked up a piece of meat. "This meat smells delicious."

Wu Hanfeng: "......"

"Erniu, think carefully, who left you a bag of snacks back in recruit training?"

"It's you, Vice Squad Leader."

"Who helped you get your lost clothes back?"

"It's you."

"And who helped you hide the cigarettes?"

"It's still you."

"You remember everything, and now you're going to give this to your deputy squad leader?"

Wu Hanfeng aggressively held up the bowl of white porridge in front of Wang Erniu.

"How have I treated you, and how have you treated me? Look at this porridge, this food, how are we supposed to eat this?!"

"Erniu, how could you do this to me?"

Wang Erniu said expressionlessly, "It's precisely because I remember how good you were to me that I can't let you eat greasy food."

He said earnestly, "You got dizzy again today. Your body is too weak. If you eat a lot of meat and fish, you'll definitely get an upset stomach."

"Deputy squad leader, once you're better, I'll cook you a feast of delicacies."

"But right now, this is all you can eat."

"You're talking nonsense!" Wu Hanfeng immediately retorted, "You made me delicious food yesterday when I was dizzy from running around, so why can't you do that today?"

Wang Erniu said, "Yesterday I thought it was an accident, but today I'm sure you did it on purpose."

Wu Hanfeng: "Erniu, how can you be so hypocritical?"

He glanced at the braised pork in Chen Zhiyuan's hand with a wronged expression.

"Then why do they get to eat so well?"

Wang Erniu: "They did a good job taking care of you and preventing you from getting dizzy a third time, so this is the food they deserve."

Zhou Haibo nodded and said, "This is called a work injury meal. How exhausted we are today chasing after your grandson? We even fell flat on our faces."

Wu Hanfeng said indignantly, "You call this a work injury? What about me? I also ran six kilometers and ended up falling face-first into the dirt. Doesn't that count as a work injury too?"

Wang Erniu said speechlessly, "You deserved it."

The room erupted in laughter.

Wu Hanfeng glared at Wang Erniu through gritted teeth.

"Wang Erniu, you just wait. Don't think that just because I'm lying in bed now, I can't deal with you."

Wang Erniu shook his head: "I dare not."

"I painstakingly taught you how to be a good soldier, and this is how you treat me? Giving me nothing but plain porridge?"

Wang Erniu slowly lowered his head.

Wu Hanfeng thought he had made him feel ashamed, and was just about to continue speaking.

Wang Erniu said calmly, "Squad leader, if there's a next time, there won't even be any plain porridge."

Wu Hanfeng immediately shut his mouth and glared fiercely at Wang Erniu.

Wang Erniu suddenly said seriously, "Next time, the only meal for patients will be plain water. I, Wang Erniu, mean what I say."

Wu Hanfeng: "......"

Erniu is stubborn and sometimes takes things too seriously.

"I was wrong."

Wang Erniu looked pleased: "This child is teachable."
