Chapter 1392 Breaking off the Engagement 41
Yuanchun came out when Doctor Zhang was taking off Huo Min's clothes and examining his body.
She asked Shen Yuandong to bring in the two kerosene lamps at home, and took out a flashlight from the space, and told her brother, "This is Dad's legacy. We didn't have money to buy batteries before, so we never took it out to use. This year, I have money, and I happened to buy batteries before the New Year. You bring this in to light it up, so Grandpa Zhang can see it too."
When the original owner's father passed away, Shen Yuandong was only thirteen years old, and he had no idea what his parents left behind.
Yuanchun just fooled him and he didn't doubt it.
Taohua just boiled a pot of water.
Yuanchun took a thermos from her room, filled it with hot water, and prepared a basin of warm water. She called Shen Yuandong and asked him to bring it in.
Then, she went to the kitchen and made a big pot of seafood, stir-fried scallion belly slices, double pepper lung slices, stir-fried cabbage, and chicken tofu.
Cooked a big pot of sorghum rice.
The lights in the room stayed on for more than two hours, and the operation was finally completed.
Wang Jianguo escorted Doctor Zhang out, and Yuanchun quickly invited them to have dinner at home: "Uncle Wang, Grandpa Zhang, the food is ready, you can all eat before you leave."
In this era, no one would just stay at someone else's house for a meal. Wang Jianguo and Old Man Zhang were about to refuse, but Yuanchun said, "This year my aunt returned a lot of food and money to me, and Yuandong also has a ration book for the city. I can't eat all the food in my house by myself, so you stay and help me eat."
Wang Jianguo laughed, "Okay then, we'll stay."
The food was placed on the kang table where Yuanchun was sleeping. Shen Yuandong asked the team leader and others to take off their shoes and get on the kang. Yuanchun and Taohua set out the bowls, chopsticks and white wine.
The two girls didn't drink, so they just stood under the kang and ate.
After Taohua was full, she accompanied Yuanchun to the kitchen. After the team leader and others had finished their meal and left, she helped Yuanchun clean up the table and wash the dishes before going home.
Wang Hongwei was worried about Huo Min, so he stayed and slept on the kang in the east room with Shen Yuandong and Huo Min.
Thanks to Yuanchun's rejuvenation pill and the spiritual spring water, Huo Min did not have a fever at night, and he woke up the next morning.
Wang Hongwei was so happy when he saw him wake up that his eyes were red. "Brother Huo, you finally woke up. How do you feel? Is it painful? Do you want me to ask Grandpa Zhang for some painkillers?"
Huo Min's face was slightly moved, "Xiao Wei, you saved me?"
"No, it was Shen Yuanchun from our village who saved you. His brother Shen Yuandong and Taohua from Aunt Erniu's family were also there at the time."
After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Huo, don't worry. I've asked them. No one saw them when they rescued you. I also told them not to tell anyone about your rescue."
Huo Min nodded and said, "Call Shen Yuanchun in. I have something to say."
"Okay, Brother Huo, you wait."
Yuanchun was cooking millet porridge with a few steamed buns on top. Knowing that Huo Min wanted to see her, she turned down the fire in the stove and went to the east room.
Yuanchun lifted the heavy door curtain and walked in. She met Huo Min's deep and scrutinizing eyes. She smiled calmly, "Hello, I'm Shen Yuanchun."
"Hello, Huo Min."
Huo Min nodded slightly, "Thank you for saving me."
What he originally wanted to say suddenly stopped when he saw Shen Yuanchun. He didn't want to use a sum of money to repay the favor of saving his life.
The grace of saving one's life should be pledged with one's own body.
Maybe he could try.
