Chapter 9 Cover your mouth
"Here he is, Gangzi's mother. What are you looking at? Lirong, he is the Gangzi I told you about. His surname is Qian, and his family is very well off. They have a cowshed, a pigpen, and a sheep pen. He is also capable. During the harvest time, he travels all over the country to help others harvest wheat. He can earn thousands of yuan a year." Aunt Liu smiled and pushed her niece forward.

After being praised like this, Qian's mother instantly became arrogant. She looked the girl up and down, and was a little disappointed. She was dark and had thick skin. Compared with the girl who only showed her eyes and had skin as white as snow, she was far inferior. "Not bad, can you read?"

"There are five or six sisters in the family, so how can we have spare money for them to study and learn to read? My niece is a good worker, and she takes care of all the farm work at home. Everyone in the surrounding villages who sees her would praise her for her diligence." Aunt Liu praised her enthusiastically.

"There is not much work to do at home, so she doesn't need to do it. Gangzi goes out to harvest wheat and needs someone to keep accounts." Qian's mother's meaning was very clear, she didn't like it.

"My niece is smart. She can learn from your Gangzi." Aunt Liu suggested, "Let the two young people talk alone so that they can get to know each other."

Mother Qian couldn't refuse outright because there were so many people around: "Gangzi, take the girl for a walk on the main road."

Aunt Liu also urged: "Lirong, go over and talk to him."

As soon as the two young men left, Aunt Liu impatiently asked Qian's mother about the wedding date.

"Today we are just meeting each other. I have to ask Gangzi and his father for their opinions after we go back." Qian's mother changed the subject: "What is this girl's name? Do you have a boyfriend? Why are you so pale? You have never worked before, right?"

Aunt Liu: "Xiao Qin's wife from the health center, what kind of work do girls from the city do? Even here, men cook for you. It's all over the village."

Li Yingtang: “.” Can this also be used as a topic of conversation?
Are you so free? You must be sick!

"Doctor Qin's wife." Mother Qian was filled with regret, and suddenly an idea struck her: "Doctor Qin's wife, do you have any unmarried girls around you? Introduce one to us."

Aunt Liu was unhappy: "Gangzi's mother, what do you mean?"

Qian's mother said as a matter of course: "You must be more selective when going on a blind date and choose a good one."

Aunt Liu's face changed.

Li Yingtang was embarrassed and picked her feet. Why did they involve her? According to Aunt Liu's attitude, she was very satisfied with the man. When Qian's mother bluntly said that Lirong was illiterate and could not help the man, she still tried her best to match them up. Don't blame her if the blind date didn't work out. "Aunt Liu, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I'm leaving first."

She ran away.

Return to the health station.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Cheng Fang sitting awkwardly on a low stool, staring blankly at the uppers of her flowered cotton shoes.

There was an old man on the hospital bed receiving an IV drip, and a young man was sitting next to him.

Qin Xian was not indoors.

What about people?

He has such a big heart. Isn't he afraid that others will steal his medical money?

"Ah Xian."

Cheng Fang was as if facing a great enemy. She hadn't seen this woman today and thought she had returned to the city, but she was still there. "Doctor Qin is out, whose house did you go to?"

"Sneaking around?" Li Yingtang repeated it before he understood what he meant: "Yes, I was at Aunt Liu's house watching her niece go on a blind date."

"What does the man look like?"

Li Yingtang sat down in front of Qin Xian's desk: "Not very good, a hundred streets worse than my husband."

When the voice fell, the grandfather and grandson on the hospital bed looked at her together.

Qin Xian, who was pushing the door outside, also almost stumbled.

Husband?

How did she yell that?

Aren’t you afraid of being ashamed?
"Ah Xian, you're back." Li Yingtang gave up his seat.

Cheng Fang said, "Doctor Qin, I don't know why I feel pain all over my body today."

Qin Xian reached out for the thermometer upon hearing this.

Li Yingtang was very observant. He took out the thermometer and handed it to Cheng Fang before him: "Here, the pain in your flesh may be caused by fever. We don't have any antipyretics at home. You should eat a meal first and see if it will get better. If you come all the way here and get cold on the road, your condition will be worse. Right, Xian?" Cheng Fang was so angry that she was shaking. Did I ask you? Only you can do it!

The corners of Qin Xian's lips rose slightly: "Yes. Is the blind date over so soon?"

Li Yingtang proudly raised her chin towards Cheng Fang. When she heard Qin Xian asking her, she immediately replied, "No, I don't want to stay there." She moved a stool and sat next to Qin Xian, admiring his long legs.

I touched it uncontrollably.

Oh my god!
The cotton pants are so long and straight, how amazing would it be if they weren't worn?
She began to look forward to next summer!
I'll earn some money later and buy him a few more pairs of shorts.

Hee hee hee!
Qin Xian's body stiffened, his heart was on fire, his ears were burning, and he lowered his eyes to the woman's soft hands.

She glanced at the other people in the infirmary calmly. Fortunately, there was a table blocking their way and no one noticed her bold behavior.

He lowered his left arm and grabbed her hand, whispering, "Behave yourself."

Li Yingtang slipped her fingers into his fingers, held them tightly, and lowered her voice like him: "It's cold, cover it for me, what's wrong? Let me tell you a gossip, the blind date of Aunt Liu's niece is short and fat, has no spirit and temperament. Even so, his mother despises Aunt Liu's niece for being illiterate and wants me to introduce her to someone else, but I won't help."

Qin Xian glanced at their interlocked hands, his eyes darkened: "Aren't you going to mess it up?"

Li Yingtang: "I'm just talking. I'm not that bad. Aunt Liu is the bad one. She brought the scarf specially before. I thought she was such a good person. Others obviously don't like her niece, but she is not angry. She keeps trying to bring them together. I really don't know what she is trying to do. I'm speechless. She doesn't even look at the man. He looks ordinary, with rough skin and bad teeth. How can my niece kiss him when she marries him? Hmm."

Qin Xian covered her mouth and nose with his free hand.

I really can't let her continue talking.

"It's time to make lunch. I'm busy today, so you go to the kitchen. There are noodles in the cupboard, just boil some water and cook them."

Li Yingtang: "It's only what time, I'm not hungry."

"I'm hungry."

"Well, I can't let you suffer."

These words made Qin Xian's lips curl up.

Li Yingtang stood up and went out. Cheng Fang looked at the two of them and felt very uncomfortable. "Doctor Qin, can I get my thermometer?"

Qin Xian put away his smile and responded coldly: "Yeah."

Cheng Fang handed over the thermometer. Qin Xian took a look, asked a few questions, and gave a diagnosis: "Fever caused by a cold. Take some medicine and it will get better."

"Sorry for the trouble, Doctor Qin."

Qin Xian focused on preparing the medicine and informing the dosage.

Cheng Fang took the medicine and had no reason to stay, so she walked out of the infirmary reluctantly. She stopped when she passed the kitchen, hesitated for a second, and then walked forward to lift the curtain.

The woman sat in front of the stove, lighting a match to light corn husks; her movements were extremely clumsy.

Unlike me, I am good at everything.

A woman like her is worthy of Doctor Qin!

We have to think of a way to make it impossible for this woman to stay in the village.

Got it!
Cheng Fang: "Do you like fish? There are people digging holes in the ice at the reservoir to fish. I remember that Dr. Qin often went to the reservoir to fish in the summer. He has ready-made tools at home. We can go over and ask them to help dig a hole to fish."

As long as this woman goes over there, she will find a way to make her fall into the ice hole.

Li Yingtang had a bad impression of Cheng Fang, but a good impression of the fish. "Really? I'll go take a look later."

Cheng Fang got the answer she wanted and stopped pursuing the issue.
