Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

A short while later, Sister Zhang brought over a medicine basket and handed over the medicine.

"Thank you, Sister Zhang."

"Don't mention it."

These medicines were all obtained through legitimate channels, so Su Wanqing specially prepared a medicine box to pack them. Now, the medicines are almost complete: penicillin, streptomycin, chloramphenicol, painkillers, hemostatic powder, gauze, tape, alcohol, iodine, a set of silver needles, and several precious syringes and surgical instruments.

Although the quantity of these medicines is small, once she goes to the countryside, she can choose one each day to receive a tenfold return, and combined with her acupuncture, it will be enough to treat the vast majority of illnesses.

Su Wanqing felt much better. The original owner suffered hardship in the countryside and no one could help her when she went there, but she wouldn't have to suffer like that.

Around noon, Su Wanqing made a special trip to the Hongxing Restaurant and packed up the most expensive dishes: braised pork for 3 yuan, a whole braised chicken for 3 yuan, sweet and sour carp for 3.5 yuan, and braised pork knuckle for 4 yuan. She also packed a few stir-fried dishes and two large bowls of rice into her space.

Thinking about the 10x return in the future, Su Wanqing stubbornly refused to eat meat, and finished two large bowls of white rice and a plate of shredded potatoes as her lunch.

Zhou Yanshen arrived early at 3 PM as expected.

He changed out of his military uniform and into a well-fitting Zhongshan suit, where his long, slender legs were particularly eye-catching, making him look tall and handsome.

"Comrade Su, I'll provide the treatment." His tone was as calm as ever.

Seeing his serious expression, Su Wanqing suddenly felt a mischievous urge and pointed to the examination bed with a straight face: "Okay, take it off."

Zhou Yanshen: "..."

In an instant, many images flashed through his mind.

I've heard that acupuncture involves inserting needles into the area where there's a problem.

So—does that mean I'm going to turn into a hedgehog there?

Zhou Yanshen's body stiffened visibly, his ears turned red at a visible speed, and his voice tightened: "...Completely...completely naked?"

That tone makes him sound like a virtuous man about to be bullied.

"Pfft—" Su Wanqing couldn't help but laugh out loud, and quickly waved her hand, "What are you thinking, Comrade Zhou Yanshen? Revolutionary treatment requires correct thinking! Just take off your shirt."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanshen visibly relaxed, but the redness from his ears spread down to his neck. He did as instructed, unbuttoning his shirt to reveal his muscular arms and powerful chest—his physique and looks were even more stunning than a 3D model!

hiss...

Even as she admired it again, Su Wanqing couldn't help but secretly swallow: When will I be able to eat it?

The cool fingertips traced a gentle gliding across his chest and abs, making Zhou Yanshen feel a ticklish sensation. He suppressed the strange feeling and reassured himself:

"He must be looking for acupoints." How could someone as upright as Comrade Su deliberately touch him? He couldn't let his imagination run wild.

Comrade Su had a faint, pleasant fragrance about her. Her hair was long and black, and her ears were small and lovely, like white jade. When she turned around, her waist was only the size of my palm—the difference in size was too great. How could I possibly...

Su Wanqing inserted acupuncture needles into Zhou Yanshen's acupoints to strengthen his kidneys and replenish his essence, which would help him recover sooner.

By the time Zhou Yanshen came to his senses, the silver needles that had been stuck all over his body had been removed, and Comrade Su was even smiling as she handed him a porcelain jar of water.

Zhou Yanshen suppressed his strange thoughts, thanked him calmly, and drank the water. He found that the water was much sweeter than the water he usually drank.

"Comrade Zhou Yanshen, please wait here for a moment. I'll go hand over some work, and then we'll leave."

"Um."

When Su Wanqing finished all the resignation procedures and returned with her large medicine box, Zhou Yanshen's long, slender hand had already taken the medicine box from her.

"I'll get it." After saying this calmly, he realized he had been a bit too forceful, so he added, "My task today is to help Comrade Su get her things."

Who doesn't love a man who's eager to do the work?

Su Wanqing smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Comrade Zhou Yanshen."

"Comrade Su's voice is so nice." Zhou Yanshen didn't say anything, but he felt like he had inexhaustible energy today, but nowhere to use it.

The two got into a grass-green Jiefang brand truck driven by Zhou Yanshen.

The truck roared away from the health center, looking incredibly cool. The head nurse was envious; if she had known Su Wanqing would marry this kind of person, she wouldn't have offered such a high price for the job.

On the bus, Zhou Yanshen asked:

"You've already told your family you're moving today? Your aunt said to keep things simple..." She paused, then added that the Zhou family had converted all the belongings into cash, but now that they'd actually married her, they couldn't leave her with nothing.

"We still have a bicycle voucher at home. We'll go to the department store later and buy the bicycle first. We don't have vouchers for the sewing machine and watch yet, but I'll think of something."

"I won't buy these." Su Wanqing was slightly touched. She was going to the countryside for re-education tomorrow and these things couldn't be taken away anyway. "I want to buy something else. I don't get along with my uncle's family, so I'll just let them know later."

Zhou Yanshen's hand on the steering wheel paused slightly as he remembered her situation in the Su family, and his voice softened:

"Okay. Then you can see for yourself what you need."

When the car arrived at the dilapidated compound where the Su family lived, it immediately attracted a group of neighbors to watch.

Neighbor Aunt Zhang, cracking sunflower seeds, asked with a sour tone, "Wanqing, why did you come back in a Liberation truck? And who is this comrade?"

Su Wanqing jumped off the truck, smiling, and said, "Aunt Zhang, this is my husband, Comrade Zhou Yanshen! The organization has approved our marriage, and I'm here today to pack my things and move into the military compound!"

Zhou Yanshen maintained his calm and composed expression, but when he stood next to Su Wanqing, he stood even straighter.

"What? Xiao Su, you're getting married already?"

"Wow, what a handsome comrade! Wanqing, you're really lucky to have found such a good match!"

"Isn't Comrade Zhou the one Xie Lanhua always talks about?"

Just as everyone was gossiping, an unusually tragic wail and Xie Lanhua's cursing voice rang out from the Su family home.

Su Wanqing pulled Zhou Yanshen inside, hurriedly saying, "We can't chat with everyone anymore, something must have happened at home!"

Run! If you're too slow, you'll miss out on the melon!

The neighbors were also extremely anxious. They only saw Su Yaoguang being hung up and beaten when Su Wanqing opened the door, but they didn't know what had happened!

"You heartless, ungrateful wretch! How dare you steal money from our house! That's all our savings! How dare you squander it! You stole it because I told you not to buy that crappy camera, huh? And then you used the stolen money to treat those street thugs to a lavish meal! I'll beat you to death, you spendthrift!"

Uncle Su was furious, his face turning ashen. He gripped a broom and began whipping Su Yaoguang with it. "I'll teach you to steal! I'll teach you to steal! No wonder you wouldn't eat breakfast this morning, you stole my money to act like a big shot! You little bastard, I'll break your legs today!"

Su Yaoguang screamed as he was beaten: "I didn't steal the money, the money just appeared in my cabinet by itself—"

"Bullshit! Money doesn't grow legs!" Xie Lanhua pounced on him and pinched him. "If you didn't steal that camera worth several hundred yuan, how could it just appear out of thin air in your arms? What did you buy with that money? Where did you hide the rest?"
