The next morning, when Muning woke up, Aunt Zhou was already gone.
She and Wang Dazhu have a canteen near the old street. Usually, Wang Dazhu is the only one guarding it. Today is the county market day, and people in the countryside have to go to the streets to buy things. Wang Dazhu is too busy alone.
However, even if Aunt Zhou left, she still put a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles on the dining table.
Mu Ning was actually extremely moved. Her right hand was burned a bit and it still hurt all night long. She wanted to wait until she went to the health center to have a look.
I also bought some peanuts and melon seeds thanks to the neighbors who caught the thief last night.
Oh, and I also have to go to the hospital to see Gu Lin.
"What a headache!" This really made her scalp numb. She wanted to go but didn't want to.
I don’t know if Brother Gu Lin went to deliver the message or how well it went.
After all, if Gu Lin really loved children as written in the original book, he would have been discharged from the hospital immediately after hearing that she was pregnant.
Unless he's seriously injured.
Alas, the original text didn't write about this aspect of the plot, and she didn't know much about it, so she still planned to go to the hospital to see him.
After all, Gu Lin is related to her life and safety.
"Hey, what evil have I done!" Muning patted his forehead in distress.
It took ten minutes to drink porridge, and then I put on my carrying basket for the market and went shopping first.
"Should I call the police? I poured oil on him. This person should be easy to find."
Muning hesitantly walked out of the door, walked out of the big willow tree, and came out onto a big road. He had to cross a bridge before reaching the lower street.
Today is market day. Whether it is vegetables grown by farmers in the countryside, people selling clothes, shoes, or food are all gathered together.
There was noisy, people coming and going, and the smell of fireworks was very strong, which made Muning slowly blend in. She thought that even calling the police to look after Gu Lin was a trivial matter, so she might as well stroll slowly to the business center.
If you see any business opportunities, wouldn't you be able to make a fortune and reach the top of your life?
Of course, the prerequisite for getting rich is to taste the delicacies of 1993, so Muning went to a bun shop and bought a bun. The skin was thin and the filling was big. When he took a bite, the fresh gravy burst in his mouth.
She was so impressed that her eyes narrowed, "Well, this bun is absolutely amazing!"
After finishing a steamed bun, I turned around and saw a seller selling sugar-oiled dumplings, which cost 50 cents each. I bought one right away. It was so delicious.
In this way, Muning walked and ate along the way, and met many neighbors who helped her last night. With an attitude of not offending, she greeted them all with a smile.
Some aunties also nodded with smiles on their faces, but Yang Guihua was not happy anymore. She curled her mouth and her eyes were filled with disgust.
"What the hell? How can a little daughter-in-law and a man be injured and hospitalized, and still enjoy eating so happily? Tsk, tsk, tsk, I think she was the one who shamelessly provoked yesterday's thief."
"Oh, please stop saying a word and it won't cost you any money. Don't forget that Girl Ning dares to throw hot oil at a thief. That girl is not easy to bully."
When Yang Guihua heard this, her face turned pale and she didn't say anything.
Muning knew nothing about it, and of course she didn't care if she knew.
She went from having no worries about food and clothing, shouting to lose weight every day, and it was already hard enough in 1993. If she had to pick something to eat, she wouldn't want to live anymore.
Wandering, she walked to the bus station relying on her original memory. A little further away from the bus station, there was a wine shop, a soy sauce seller, and a rice mill. A little further up there was the police station.
When she arrived at her destination, she wondered if this shabby door and shabby-looking building was really a police station?
This looks too crude.
"Comrade, what are you doing at the police station?" The policeman at the door began to ask when he saw that Muning had not yet entered.
"Oh, I'm here to call the police. There was a burglar in the house last night."
Muning had been dealing with the police just after graduation, so he was quite calm when he arrived here, and followed the young policeman into the police station.
——
After the transcript was made, the young policeman looked at the contents in the transcript and felt a little surprised, "Did you heat up a pot of oil and pour it over?"
He looked hard at Muning. His face was white and tender. He looked at the record and saw that he was only eighteen years old. It was good that he was pretty, but he clearly looked like he would make him cry if he spoke louder. What did he say? She said she poured hot oil on the thief.
Muning waved his hands and said nonchalantly, "Yes, I was thinking that if I shouted to someone, I wouldn't be able to scare him away. It happened that my briquettes were on fire, so I heated up a pot of oil and poured it over."
"Comrade police, a pot of oil is worth a lot of money. You have to catch that person and pay me for the oil!"
"Hey! You little girl, you are very courageous." The young policeman was shocked and finally assured Muning that they would investigate carefully and make sure to catch the thief immediately and pay her the gas money.
After the thief's matter was settled, Muning walked to the hospital with a bamboo basket on his back.
The hospital is not in the old street, but near the square.
The square is more prosperous than the old street.
This is probably the difference between the new city and the old city in later generations.
It just so happened that she could go to the hospital to have a look at her burns.
The weather was hot, so Muning walked and looked around, finding everything he saw strange.
We arrived at the hospital in a stop-and-go manner.
"Nurse, where can I bandage my hand when it's hot?" There was a nurse sitting at the consultation desk.
The nurse looked up and said, "Oh, what happened? The burn is quite serious. Go to the treatment room quickly."
While grinning, Muning's hand was bandaged by the doctor, which almost made her cry.
"Okay, don't touch the water these days, or you'll get scars."
"Yeah." It hurt so much that he was a little distracted.
After walking out of the treatment room, she remembered what she came to the hospital for, and couldn't help but slap herself, "Do you have Alzheimer's disease? You forget things so easily."
Fortunately, Mu Ning knew Gu Lin's ward after being here before. She followed her memory to the ward and entered but found no one there.
Somewhat puzzled, I asked the nurse who had just come out, "Ms. Nurse, has Gu Lin who lives in this ward been discharged from the hospital?"
"Who are you?"
"I am his...daughter-in-law." Muning silently revealed her identity.
She would not have imagined a month ago that one day she would introduce herself to others like this.
The nurse was a little confused as to why her daughter-in-law didn't know whether her husband had been discharged from the hospital or not. "If you look back, isn't that Gu Lin?"
Muning turned around suddenly, and what came into view was a tall figure.
This is definitely the most handsome and handsome man Muning has ever seen.
His facial features seemed to have been fabricated by Empress Nuwa herself, with no flaws to be found.
Because his forehead was injured, his head was bandaged with gauze, but this did not affect his handsomeness at all.
Under a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows, there is a pair of seductive peach blossom eyes. On the outside, he looks bohemian, like a romantic man in ancient times. His gestures are affectionate, but not disgusting.
This is a face that makes many men feel ashamed. At this time, he is holding a bag in his left hand and the cigarette he is holding in his right hand. He pinched it off when he saw Muning.
He walked casually, as if walking in the Grand View Garden, and walked to Muning, "Why are you here?"
The expression was indifferent, and those cold eyes that showed no emotion were actually staring at Muning or her belly.
Yes, she is pregnant.
Muning tried to hold his head high and face Gu Lin's overwhelming momentum.
Who would have thought that the young policeman was even more surprised than Gu Lin and said something.
"Gu Lin, your wife has come to pick you up, why aren't you excited?" the nurse said.
Gu Lin's voice was low, and she looked at Muning and said casually, "Well, wife?"
This low and magnetic voice could make one's ears pregnant. Muning's ears were itchy, but she didn't want to admit defeat. Then she puffed up her chest, touched her belly and said proudly.
"Not only your wife, but also your son."
