After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 19, Episode 0019: One Family, Four Armies, Three Martyrs
"How is it? Are you satisfied with the room? Tell your uncle if you want anything changed. Your uncle is the most free person in our family right now."

Although he was nominally employed at the military hospital, he was of a relatively high rank, considered a top-tier doctor in the hospital. As long as there were no seriously ill patients, he could be quite idle.

Hearing this, Lin Yuexi looked at Liu Huai with some guilt, "Uncle Liu, you don't need to force yourself. You said yourself, I'm already much better."

Liu Huai's parents and wife were all martyrs, and tragically, all three of them died in the same battle, and all of them could not be saved after being sent to the hospital.

At that time, Liu Huai was a military doctor, and his family had four soldiers and three martyrs.

Liu Huai couldn't accept that he could save other soldiers, but couldn't save his own parents and wife.

He couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

So, even when there were already signs of him being sent to the countryside, he still resolutely went abroad, wanting to improve his medical skills.

Little did he know that upon his return, he would be met with a barrage of accusations, and he never even had the chance to enter the operating room again.

Although military hospitals are different and the committee can't easily manage them, Liu Huai has developed a psychological aversion to military hospitals. Whenever he's in a military hospital, he can't hold a scalpel properly.

Her father told her that Liu Huai had tried once at a military hospital, but he couldn't even lift a scalpel, let alone treat patients.

From then on, Grandpa and the others never mentioned sending Liu Huai to the military hospital again.

One family with four soldiers and three martyrs—that's enough. Don't push him any further.

Liu Huai smiled but didn't respond to her words. He picked up the flashlight from the kang table, got up, and walked outside, saying, "Life here is a bit inconvenient. There's no electricity or running water. There's one toilet outside and another next to yours. There's a well in the courtyard for water."

Go wash up next door first, I'll heat up some millet porridge and bring it in, you can make do with this."

Lin Yuexi, who was always a step behind in everything, didn't even have a chance to call him before the flashlight beam had already moved away.

There was also a battery-powered desk lamp in the room. Lin Yuexi got up, took the lamp, and went to the next room to wash up.

This bathroom is small, about five or six square meters, but it is fully equipped with a washbasin, a clean white toilet with light-colored floral print, and a shower.

The only downside is that there is no running water; you have to manually fill the toilet and shower with water first.

But once the water tank at the top is filled with water, this bathroom is quite convenient to use.

After washing up, he returned to the house. A short while later, Liu Huai reappeared at the door with a bowl in one hand and a flashlight in the other.

Despite the age difference, Liu Huai still had to be careful, so he went in without closing the door, turned off the flashlight and put it back on the kang table, then picked up the bowl and prepared to feed Lin Yuexi himself.

Lin Yuexi couldn't possibly let him feed her. It had nothing to do with gender; she just felt unusually hungry.

She ate the millet porridge in small bites, and it took her nearly half an hour to finish the small bowl.

But this was enough to make Liu Huai extremely happy. Back in the capital, it would take a girl an hour to finish such a bowl of food.

He now has even more confidence that Chen Wenkun can cure the girl.

When Lin Yuexi woke up the next day, there was no one in the room. On the kang table at the end of the kang, there was a note left by her third brother, which was pressed down with the Little Red Book.

【sister:

Uncle Wei and I went to work. We brought our lunch with us. We have two bowls of millet porridge and some chicken soup that we've already skimmed off the oil in the pot. Remember to eat when you wake up. Uncle Liu was rushed away by car last night. I asked Da Ni from next door to take care of you. If there's anything you need, ask her to do it.

Third Brother left.

Lin Yuexi used her spiritual power to sense the area and indeed saw a little girl of eleven or twelve years old diligently hoeing the ground in the marked area of ​​the yard. "Is that Da Ni outside?"

Her voice was still very soft, but she used some of her mental energy to transmit the voice directly to Da Ni's ear.

Da Ni had no idea about any of this. She only knew that she heard the pretty older sister wake up and call her, so she quickly dropped the hoe and went to wash her hands, calling into the house, "Lin Zhiqing, I'll be right back after I wash my hands."

Leng Zhiqing had instructed her that morning that Lin Zhiqing was very clean, and she couldn't go in dirty and make Lin Zhiqing dislike her.

In the morning, she quietly went into the house to take a look at Lin Zhiqing. Last night, her mother said that Lin Zhiqing was prettier than a fairy. She thought her mother was bragging again, but it turned out that her mother was not lying to her this time.

The little girl quickly washed and dried her hands, then rushed to the door but suddenly stopped. She patted her clothes, straightened them, and then gently pushed the door open, bending down to peek her head inside.

"Lin Zhiqing, may I come in?"

The little girl's adorable appearance brought a smile to Lin Yuexi's eyes, and she beckoned to her, "Come in."

Da Ni is a tiger cub; as soon as she got permission, she smiled, revealing two big dimples, pushed open the door, and ran inside without the slightest bit of awkwardness.

Standing in front of the kang (a heated brick bed), looking up at Lin Yuexi, his eyes were filled with the word 'like'. "Lin Zhiqing, are you remembering? I can help you. Don't worry, Lin Zhiqing, I definitely won't drop you. My mother says I'm incredibly strong."

This child is so funny.

The child's mother doesn't seem to have a bad temper.

Lin Yuexi reached out and ruffled her hair, which was cut short to her ears. "Sister can get up by herself, she doesn't need your help."

Da Ni didn't insist. Her mother had told her that when she went to work for a client, she must listen to the client and never make decisions for them, otherwise she wouldn't get paid.

This job pays five cents a day, almost as much as her father's salary. She can't afford to lose it; her retirement savings depend on it.

Lin Yuexi slowly changed her clothes and slowly got up.

Watching the whole thing in slow motion made Da Ni anxious for her, but for the sake of five cents a day, she bravely endured it without uttering a sound.

Then I followed Lin Yuexi out to wash up, followed her to the kitchen, and stood at the door waiting for Lin Yuexi to bring out the millet porridge to eat.

It's not that she took the salary and didn't do any work, but in the countryside, food is the most important thing. Entering someone's kitchen without being close enough to them is considered very disrespectful, let alone helping someone take food out of their pot.

Lin Yuexi was so amused by the little girl's constantly changing expressions that her stomach hurt. What a little rascal! She could put on a silent show without saying a word.

I strongly recommend that all young male celebrities learn from her.

"This sister can't eat it, can you eat it for her?"

Lin Yuexi took out a few milk candies from her pocket and placed them on the table in front of Da Ni.

These candies were purchased for free from a vintage wedding company. They were square blocks about the size of two fingers, with peeled peanuts mixed in.

She had already opened the packaging when she was in Beijing. She had seen her mother buy a similar milk candy once, so she wasn't worried about any problems taking it out now.

Da Ni glanced at the milk candy, then looked up at Lin Yuexi. Despite her obvious longing for the milk candy, she firmly shook her head.

“Sister Lin, I’m working here on a salary, so I can’t eat your food anymore. My mom said if I eat your food, she’ll deduct the cost from my salary. She also said I’m very strong and I’ll never get married. I need to earn more money as soon as possible to support myself in my old age.”
