Chapter 142 Elopement
Chapter 142 Elopement
Ever since Old Man Ge took the ointment given to him by Feng Qingqing and his health improved significantly, he had been thinking about how to repay Feng Qingqing. After all, he couldn't sleep or eat properly if he didn't repay the kindness he had received.
Therefore, when he heard his eldest son mention He Yong'an in the morning, his first thought was to take this opportunity to arrange a job for He Yong'an.
Although the Public Security Bureau has made arrangements, he believes that with his three sons in the Armed Forces Department, the Public Security Bureau will not arbitrarily deceive or make arbitrary arrangements.
After He Yong'an's affairs were arranged, Old Man Ge seemed unsure of how to begin.
After a long pause, he coughed and then looked at Feng Qingqing with a somewhat ingratiating expression:
"Young lady, I have something to tell you."
Feng Qingqing noticed something strange about the old man's expression; what was troubling him so much?
"Sir, please tell me what you need. If there's anything I can do to help, I will definitely do my best without hesitation."
Upon hearing Feng Qingqing's words, Old Ge slapped his thigh and laughed loudly:
"It's still you, good girl, so generous."
When Feng Qingqing heard him say that, she smiled.
After a moment, Old Man Ge slowly explained the whole story.
It turns out that after taking Feng Qingqing's medicine recently, Old Ge's condition has improved a lot. Just a few days ago, he went to the county to catch up with his old comrades and have a chat.
His old comrade-in-arms noticed that after not seeing Old Ge for a while, not only had his mental state improved a lot, but even the chronic illness that had been plaguing him for a long time had been greatly reduced.
He was surprised and quickly asked if he had obtained a good remedy.
Old Ge didn't hide anything, and even recounted the events before and after the treatment with some pride.
Old Ge also knew that his old comrade-in-arms had been plagued by illness, just like he had been before.
At first, his comrades were somewhat skeptical, even suspecting that Old Man Ge had already almost recovered, given how young he was... In the end, Old Man Ge repeatedly explained:
"How old am I? Do you think I can't even tell the difference? If you don't believe me, then don't ask. You'll regret it later."
Upon hearing this, the old comrade-in-arms immediately begged for forgiveness:
"Alright, alright, don't you know me? I'm just not good at speaking. So, could you help me take a look?"
After speaking, he looked at Old Man Ge expectantly. Old Man Ge had also come here today with this idea in mind, after all, he had been friends with his old comrade-in-arms for decades.
Therefore, arrangements were made on the spot:
"If you have some free time these next few days, come to our brigade. I'll have Doctor Feng come and take a look at you. I guarantee you'll see results in three to five days."
Although the old comrade-in-arms was somewhat skeptical of Old Man Ge's claim that it would be effective in three to five days, he still held out hope and immediately nodded in agreement.
At this moment, fearing that Feng Qingqing might misunderstand his decision-making on his own, Old Man Ge quickly explained:
“Feng girl, don’t blame Uncle Ge for making decisions on his own. My old comrade-in-arms is just like me, suffering from illness as he gets older. I feel much better now, and I hope he can feel better too.”
Thinking about his old friend's current health condition, he couldn't help but sigh.
Feng Qingqing was so polite to him that she quickly interrupted her:
"Uncle Ge, please don't say that. You are all soldiers who protect our country, heroes, and people we admire. I am willing to treat you."
If something similar happens again, just call Qingqing over directly; you don't need to inform me separately.
When Grandpa Ge heard Feng Qingqing say this, he felt extremely comforted and deeply moved.
Responding repeatedly:
"Oh, oh, oh, I know you're a good kid. I was right about you."
Feng Qingqing confirmed the arrival time of his comrade-in-arms with Grandpa Ge, and the group chatted for a while.
Before leaving, Feng Qingqing knew that the medicine she had prescribed for Grandpa Ge was almost used up, so she went inside and took out two more doses for Grandpa Ge to continue drinking.
It can not only consolidate the condition but also provide sustained improvement.
Now, Grandpa Ge has complete trust in the ointment made by Feng Qingqing. When he saw Feng Qingqing take out the ointment, he quickly took it with both hands.
At the same time, Uncle Ge looked at Feng Qingqing somewhat embarrassedly, poked his hands together, and then said somewhat awkwardly:
"Qingqing, I wonder if you still have the sauce you made for me last time?"
He licked his lips when he mentioned the sauce, showing how much he liked it.
Ever since he tasted the sauce Feng Qingqing made last time, he hasn't let any of his family members eat it. Now, the second jar is almost empty. Today, when he came here and saw Feng Qingqing, he inexplicably thought of his nearly finished jar of sauce again before leaving.
Only then did he shamelessly open his mouth, while Ge Wentang, the eldest son of Grandpa Ge, who was standing to the side, stared at his father with some helplessness.
I wonder what's so special about the sauce that Dr. Feng made that made his father shamelessly ask for more.
Feng Qingqing smiled and smiled after hearing this. She hadn't expected that the sauce she made last time would be so popular with Grandpa Ge.
He went straight into the house, got another bottle for Grandpa Ge, and began to explain:
"Sir, I only made a few bottles before, and I ate some of them intermittently in between. Now I only have one bottle left. Please don't mind."
Upon seeing this, Grandpa Ge quickly grabbed it and said:
"No, no, how could I possibly dislike it?"
After taking the items, Ge Wentang quickly stepped forward and handed Feng Qingqing ten yuan for the consultation fee. Feng Qingqing felt it was too much and said she couldn't use it, but Ge Wentang insisted on keeping the money.
No matter how much Feng Qingqing tried to refuse, she couldn't understand their intentions and accepted the gift.
After the two left, Feng Qingqing saw that it was getting late, so she hurriedly told He Yong'an to chop wood and start a fire to prepare lunch.
Not long after, Hu Fangming arrived, and the three of them cooked a sumptuous lunch together.
Since there were three people for lunch, Feng Qingqing cooked three dishes: stir-fried cured pork with garlic sprouts, stir-fried eggs with chives, and stir-fried bok choy.
Knowing that He Yong'an had a large appetite, Feng Qingqing prepared a lot of each dish.
The main dish was steamed buns made from a mixture of wheat and vegetables, and I also made a simple vegetable and egg drop soup.
The three of them ate with great relish, even drinking every last drop of soup.
After finishing their meal, Feng Qingqing learned about what had happened in the educated youth compound from Hu Fangming's gossip.
Since Jiang Yun was discovered missing yesterday morning, the atmosphere in the educated youth compound has been tense, especially among the female educated youth, who are all feeling insecure.
Therefore, when the police came to question them today, the educated youth answered everything they knew without reservation.
But in the end, no clues were found.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Lai Heping, a male educated youth, walked in from outside and said something to everyone:
"According to Xiong Baoguo, Jiang Zhiqing may have eloped with a hunter from the mountains."
His words were like a thunderbolt, leaving the educated youth speechless and stunned, while Jiang Yun's parents were immediately enraged:
"What nonsense are you spouting, kid? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll sue you for defamation."
