Chapter 183 I Want to Be a Soldier
Wu Xingbang did not leave, but instead said sincerely, "I asked around, and they all said that your medical skills are the best. Lihua is still young and wants to take good care of her health so that she can have another child later."
After Wu Xingbang finished speaking, seeing that Ye Nuan ignored him, he neither urged her nor intended to leave.
Ye Nuan was actually a little angry, but no matter how angry she was, she couldn't forget that she was a doctor.
"Wu Xingbang, Liu Lihua's condition isn't particularly serious. She just needs to take some anti-inflammatory medication and get some rest. So it doesn't matter who prescribes the medicine. I'm in the cardiothoracic surgery department now, so it's not appropriate for me to prescribe a gynecological medicine. You can leave now."
Seeing that Ye Nuan insisted on not prescribing any medicine, Wu Xingbang had no choice but to return to the gynecology department.
Moreover, Wu Xingbang also realized that his relationship with Ye Nuan was neither too close nor too distant, but it was indeed a bit awkward when they were alone together.
Ye Nuan's efforts to avoid him are actually a good thing; at least, they can avoid a lot of gossip.
Wu Xingbang sent a telegram back regarding Liu Lihua's hospitalization.
His idea was to have his mother or sister come and take care of his wife for a while, at least to help her recover properly after her postpartum period, since they still needed to have children afterward.
Wu Xingbang is very busy now. He wants to make a name for himself, get promoted, and get a house, so he needs to get his superiors to notice him.
After the telegram was sent back, the Wu family discussed it and decided to have the old lady come and take care of them for a month.
Wu Xingbang didn't mention the travel expenses, but the Wu family all knew that he was the one who would have to pay for them.
Although the Wu family is doing better now, the stinginess and opportunism ingrained in their bones are not so easy to erase.
Wu's mother was illiterate, and her family was worried about her going to Zhejiang Province alone, so they went to the Liu family to ask again.
When the Liu family learned that Liu Lihua had suffered a miscarriage after an accidental fall and needed someone to take care of her, they were naturally anxious.
Ultimately, Liu's mother took a few days off to go and check on things first.
Liu's mother and Wu's mother didn't talk much along the way, and Liu's mother made no attempt to hide her contempt for her in-laws' mother.
If it weren't for Wu Xingbang's success, Liu's mother would never have agreed to let her daughter marry him.
Unbeknownst to them, there was another young man traveling with them on the train, also heading to Zhejiang Province.
Wu Xingbang knew that today was the day his mother-in-law and biological mother were coming, so he took leave early and then applied to the army to borrow a tractor from the logistics department to pick them up.
These days, being able to ride a tractor is already a rare treat.
Liu's mother looked disgusted, but seeing that the tractor was relatively clean and there were two small stools on it, she was finally less angry.
The tractor chugged away, and Li Jinbu, dragging a suitcase, carrying a large bag on his back, and with another bag slung across his body, finally managed to squeeze out of the crowd.
Wow, Zhejiang Province, here I come!
Before Li Jinbu arrived, she didn't even make a phone call, or even send a letter.
It's not that Li Jinbu didn't want to write, but that she just hadn't found the opportunity.
Li Jinbu graduated from high school this year, but it was hard to find a job, and her family didn't want to bother the Ye family. So Li Jinbu asked her high school teacher to get her a graduation certificate, and then she took the train to find Ye Nuan.
He wants to join the army!
Moreover, people who have completed high school should have an advantage when joining the army.
Ye Nuan received a call from her second uncle on the evening Li Jinbu boarded the train.
Only then did I realize that Li Jinbu, with her audacity, had come directly to Zhejiang Province without saying a word, using her own saved pocket money.
He's really bold!
Ye Nuan was not clear about the current conscription policy, but she knew that Li Jinbu had also served in the army here in her previous life; otherwise, he would not have ended up in Wu Xingbang's hands.
During those years, Ye Nuan even contemplated suicide. She wanted to help her family, but Wu Xingbang disagreed. She wanted to divorce Wu Xingbang, but her younger brother was also under Wu Xingbang's control. At that time, she was utterly desperate.
Fortunately, everything is different now.
Li Jinbu dragged his luggage to the exit and saw Ye Nuan glaring at him angrily.
Li Jinbu probably realized what kind of punishment her behavior would bring her, but she still greeted him with a smile.
"Sister, I'm here!"
Ye Nuan snorted heavily, "You brat, you're getting bolder and bolder. You even dare to run away from home? Do you know how worried your family is!"
"Sister, I was wrong, I'll change, I promise I won't do it again."
With her ear held in Ye Nuan's hand, Li Jinbu didn't dare to make any big movements, for fear that Ye Nuan might get upset and send her back.
"Alright, let's go home first. People in the family compound can call home to let us know they're safe."
"Got it, ma'am."
Ye Nuan tidied up a room in the west wing.
There's no other way; I have two younger children at home.
"Sis, where's my brother-in-law?"
"He won't be back until tonight. You can tidy up first. I've prepared the bedding for you. Just put it on in a bit."
Little Cannon called out, "Auntie, the hot water is ready!"
"Okay, go play with Yueyue, don't worry about him."
After Ye Nuan finished speaking, she told Li Jinbu to go and get some hot water for a bath.
That evening, Gu Hanchuan returned home and saw his cousin, who, although somewhat thin, looked quite strong. He went up to him and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Not bad, your height is sufficient."
"Brother-in-law, do you know I came here to join the army?"
“Your sister told me that since the family can’t control you anyway, you can join the army in the future. However, the military has strict discipline, and if you make a mistake, the punishment you receive may be more severe than others. Do you still want to insist?”
“Brother-in-law, I’m not afraid of hardship! I just feel like I have to do something. I don’t want to go to the countryside. It’s not that I look down on the working people there, but I’ve been there and seen for myself. I feel that the people there don’t welcome educated youth at all, and there’s not as much work in the fields as I imagined. I don’t think going to the countryside would be about realizing my value; it’s more like wasting my life!”
Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped by Ye Nuan.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Be careful someone doesn't overhear you!"
Li Jinbu gave a silly grin: "I know, I won't say it again. Brother-in-law, what kind of soldier do you think I can be? I heard that being a sniper is really awesome, do you think I can be one?"
Gu Hanchuan smiled and said, "It's hard to say. Get a good rest tonight, and go to the hospital with your sister for a full physical examination tomorrow. We'll talk about it after the results come out."
Li Jinbu's eyes widened: "I need a physical exam too?"
"Ask your sister, she knows the answer!"
Of course we're familiar with each other. Every year, countless people go to the hospital for physical examinations. In addition to the regular physical examinations required by the military, there are also some special examinations.
Ye Nuan rolled her eyes: "Let's make this clear first, if you fail the medical exam, you'll have to go back to Anshi on your own!"
