Quick Transmigration: Don't Let an Honest Man Become a Villainous Supporting Female Character
Chapter 31 The Female Supporting Character in a Historical Fiction
"Lin Zhiqing, thank you so much for today. Without you, we don't know when we would have been able to get to the county hospital."
Ji Zhuxin forced a smile at Lin Yitang.
Looking at the exhausted Ji Zhuxin, Lin Yitang whispered to comfort her, "It's alright, you should rest for a while. You've been busy all night."
There was an empty bed next to her, and the nurse told Ji Zhuxin that she could lie down there for a while.
Xie Zhiqing wanted to stay and take care of them, but Ji Zhuxin wouldn't even look at him, so he had no choice but to go back to the village with Lin Yitang.
The next day, Ji Zhuxin went to the department store to buy things early in the morning.
She only comes here with Ji Chaoxi to buy things during the Chinese New Year once a year, but given Lin Yitang's status, if she were to buy her something cheap, she really wouldn't be able to give it away.
Ji Zhuxin first went to the black market to exchange the tickets, then bought Lin Yitang some face cream and a silk scarf. She didn't dare to buy anything too fancy.
Ji Zhuxin bought another can of malted milk powder. She saw that the village chief gave this to his mother; it was specially made for seriously ill elderly people to nourish their bodies. Thinking that Qin Du usually does a lot of work, she also picked out a pair of work gloves for him.
These things weren't cheap; they wiped out most of her savings from the past six months.
But if they don't buy something to thank the people who helped them, won't no one help them in the future?
Ji Chaoxi sat on the hospital bed, still looking a little listless. She packed her things and waited for her sister to pick her up and take her home.
The nurse glanced at her wound and instructed, "You need to apply the medicine and change the dressing every day after you get home. Don't be lazy."
Ji Chaoxi nodded obediently.
When they returned to the village, it was still dark. As soon as they got home, Ji Zhuxin grabbed some face cream and a silk scarf and left in a hurry.
The villagers sat eating in front of their own homes, watching the commotion and pulling at the entrance of the former educated youth compound.
"Lin, please accept this. I don't know what you educated youth like, so I just bought some random things. I hope you won't mind."
Ji Zhuxin stuffed the things into Lin Yitang's arms and held her hand tightly.
Lin Yitang looked extremely embarrassed. She knew that these things were not cheap for Ji Zhuxin. She had only given her a ride and really didn't want to take such valuable things from her.
Ji Zhuxin wiped away her tears: "Lin Zhiqing, please take it. Don't be shy. I scolded you like that before, and you were still willing to help me. I really don't know what to say."
Lin Yitang sighed and finally accepted the gift: "Sister Zhuxin, I'll accept this gift. You should go back and take care of your sister."
She would have saved anyone else, but she really didn't expect Ji Zhuxin to bring her a gift.
Having been in Xinniu Village for so long, she had a general idea of the character of most of the villagers: they were cunning, lazy, and liked to take advantage of others. Ji Zhuxin had really changed her impression of the village.
It was just getting dark, and the sky was a pale blue. As you passed through the village, you could occasionally smell the aroma of vegetables.
"Just call him 'brother' from now on, okay? He's two years older than you, so don't keep calling him by his full name."
Ji Zhuxin lowered her voice and carefully supported Ji Chaoxi, giving her instructions.
Ji Chaoxi nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, sis."
Ji Zhuxin brushed the stray hairs from Ji Chaoxi's forehead and then patted her own clothes.
She cleared her throat before knocking on Qin Du's door.
Qin Du opened the door after looking for a while. He looked calmly at the two people standing at the door, his face expressionless.
Seeing that Ji Chaoxi was still standing there dumbfounded, Ji Zhuxin tugged at her, and Ji Chaoxi called out crisply, "Brother."
Qin Du frowned.
Ji Zhuxin smiled and said, "Qin Du, I really have to trouble you this time. If it weren't for you, my sister might have died there."
She took the things out and handed them to him: "We didn't know what you liked, so we went to the department store and bought some things. See if you need anything else, and we'll buy it for you next time."
"No need," Qin Du interrupted her, and immediately tried to close the door.
Ji Chaoxi quickly blocked the door, and Qin Du frowned as he looked at her hand stuck in the door crack.
"It contains malted milk powder, which is good for Auntie's health!"
Ji Zhuxin quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, this malted milk powder is most suitable for postpartum women and sick elderly people. Qin Du, even if you don't think about yourself, think about your mother."
Qin Du gripped the door, remaining silent.
Ji Zhuxin noticed Qin Du's hesitation and pressed on, "To nourish the body, you need to eat special foods. People can't necessarily absorb all of this meat and stuff."
"Eat something first, maybe Auntie will get better after eating," Ji Chaoxi agreed.
Ji Zhuxin glanced at Ji Chaoxi with some admiration in her eyes. This girl's mind had become much sharper after her trip to the hospital.
Ji Zhuxin quickly stuffed the malted milk powder and gloves into Qin Du's arms, and Ji Chaoxi also quickly stuffed the bag of White Rabbit milk candy in her hand into his arms, and Qin Du's arms were immediately filled.
Seeing Qin Du looking at the bag of White Rabbit milk candy, Ji Zhuxin smiled and said, "This girl hasn't earned any money yet, so she can only give you the candy she's saved up. Yesterday, she dreamed that she wanted to thank her brother Qin Du and said she would take care of you for the rest of her life."
Ji Chaoxi blushed and glanced at her sister, wondering if her sister was exaggerating.
Fortunately, Qin Du didn't dwell on this too much.
As they were leaving, Ji Zhuxin tugged at Ji Chaoxi again, almost causing her to fall. Ji Chaoxi already had a limp in one leg, so Ji Zhuxin quickly helped her up.
Ji Chaoxi whispered, "Thank you, Brother Qin Du."
Qin Du glanced at Ji Chaoxi, who was blushing slightly from embarrassment, and then looked away.
Ji Zhuxin was finally satisfied. After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Qin Du, she took Ji Chaoxi home.
At night, Ji Chaoxi tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Although her sister didn't say how much money was spent this time, it must have been a lot. She always wastes her sister's money, like a leech.
Ji Chaoxi wiped away her tears with the blanket. Once she recovered, she would collect coal cinders to make shoe soles and then return the money to her sister.
From then on, the relationship between the Ji family and the neighboring Qin family improved considerably.
When Ji Zhuxin sees someone insulting the Qin family, she will even help them insult back.
That day, Ji Zhuxin cooked a lot of dishes and brought them to the Qin family to eat. She heard that Qin's mother liked pickled vegetables, so she would send some to her whenever she had the chance.
Qin Du initially ignored them, but Ji Zhuxin got along very well with Qin's mother and would come over to chat with her from time to time. Qin Du couldn't just kick them out.
"Auntie, let me tell you this: don't be fooled by how glamorous those educated youth may seem on the surface. They do a lot of dirty things in private. I was caught doing one last time."
Ji Zhuxin cracked sunflower seeds, lowered her voice, and showed no sign of the tension of talking badly about someone behind their back.
Qin's mother lay on the bed, her brows furrowed: "Such a thing has happened."
She couldn't go out, and Qin Du rarely spoke, let alone talked about these things. She knew nothing about the village now.
