Chapter 418 Military Hospital
"My dad is the director of the 48th Division Military Region Hospital. He can definitely cure your grandma. Just wait and see."
Xu Sui was stunned. The 48th Division?
Isn't that the unit where Qin Yunzhou and his men are located?
But thinking about it, it seems normal.
Xiao Fei attended a military medical university near his unit, and after graduation, he was mostly assigned to jobs nearby.
The director of the military hospital near the base does seem to be surnamed Hou, and he once treated Qin Yunzhou's leg.
He and Qin Yunzhou had a pretty good relationship. Although they were quite far apart in age, they became good brothers.
At the time, someone else helped issue the certificate, allowing Qin Yunzhou to retain his military status and return to his hometown to recuperate for a period of time, to see if he could recover before returning to the army.
To be honest, without their testimony, given Qin Yunzhou's injuries at the time, he would most likely have had to retire from the military due to his injuries.
Because of this, after she and her two children joined the army, she told Qin Yunzhou that she would find an opportunity to visit them.
If that's the case, then it's probably not very useful. Dean Hou specializes in surgery; if it were truly useful, Qin Yunzhou would definitely contact him.
Thinking of this, Xu Sui stopped teasing Hou Yuzhu.
"You've misunderstood, Comrade Hou. My name is Xu Sui, and Xu Fei is my younger brother."
Hou Yuzhu didn't believe it, and she snorted coldly.
"You don't need to lie to me anymore. Xu Fei has been in college for over a year, and I've never heard of him having an older sister, nor have I ever seen her call him. You must be lying to me."
"Do you not want to break up with Xu Fei, or do you think my conditions are too low?"
"If you have any complaints, you can just say so. There's no need to lie to me here. As long as you break up with Xu Fei, I can have my dad arrange a job for you in the military. Think it over carefully, and call me when you've made up your mind."
The call was immediately disconnected after I finished speaking.
Xu Sui: "..."
Well, she hasn't really called Xu Fei alone much over the years; she usually calls her mother, Wang Yinhua.
It seems that no matter how busy I am in the future, I will have to pay more attention to this younger brother. After all, they are siblings and blood relatives.
After returning from the post office, Xu Sui bought some snacks for her children to appease them.
I've been busy with my mother's affairs these past few days and haven't had time to take care of the two children.
She had just arrived at the entrance of the courtyard with the pastries she had bought.
Suddenly a timid voice called out to her.
"Aunt... Auntie."
Xu Sui paused, subconsciously looking up. Not far away, a little boy, about ten years old, with a small schoolbag on his back, peeked out from a corner, secretly watching her.
She smiled and took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket.
"Jinbao, come here, Auntie will give you candy."
This was the first time she had seen the child since returning to her hometown.
Jinbao stared longingly at the candy, swallowed hard, and suppressed his desire. He didn't go forward or move; he just shook his head.
"No...no, let's give it to my younger siblings."
"I don't like eating sweets."
So many years have passed, but he still has some memories from his childhood.
He vaguely knew that his aunt had a bad relationship with his parents, and that his aunt had been very harsh on him when he was a child, often bullying him, but sometimes she was also very kind to him and would give him candy.
Grandma said that Aunt is the most promising and capable person in the family, and told him to study hard, learn from Aunt, and strive to be as amazing as Aunt in the future.
He used to be ignorant and would ask his father why, even though they were all family, his aunt was so capable, but his father wasn't capable at all and could only be supported by his grandmother.
But Dad didn't say anything; he just remained silent.
And his mother, he hasn't seen her for a long time. He's heard from others that she's a bad person, not very good, and that she's disappeared for many years, with no one knowing where she went.
Xu Sui could tell at a glance that the child clearly wanted to eat, so she stepped forward and stuffed the few pieces of candy in her hand directly into Jinbao's arms.
"Alright, go home. School's over, don't wander around outside."
"If you feel bored, you can go play with Yan Yan and Yao Yao."
She had no particular opinion about Jinbao, nor could she say she liked or disliked him.
Jinbao is, after all, her mother's grandson. Even for her mother's sake, Xu Sui cannot turn a blind eye to this child.
Of course, all of this is based on the premise that Jinbao is not like his parents.
Jinbao's eyes suddenly lit up. He clutched the few candies in his arms tightly. "Really, Auntie? Can I really go play with my younger brother and sister?"
Yan Yan and Yao Yao are from a big city, or rather, from the military. Their father is a military officer, and their mother is no ordinary person either. They even travel back to their hometown in a jeep.
The brother and sister not only wore fashionable and beautiful clothes, but also ate high-end pastries that required snack tickets.
Not only did the children in the courtyard want to play with Yan Yan and Yao Yao, but even the little granddaughter of the factory manager nearby wanted to be friends with the two siblings.
However, Yan Yan and Yao Yao don't really like playing with strangers.
"Of course, we're all family. Come on, I'll take you to find them." Xu Sui patted Jinbao's little head and led him over.
Her mother, Wang Yinhua, still cares about Jinbao a lot.
Xu Sui had just taken Jin Bao's hand and walked a few steps when she looked up and saw a weathered man standing not far away.
Xu Sui was slightly taken aback and unconsciously let go of Jinbao's hand.
It's been so many years since we last met. I went back to my hometown for a few days during the Spring Festival, but I didn't see him at all. It was only when I suddenly saw He Quan, my half-brother.
To be honest, she was still a little unaccustomed to it. Thinking of the things that had happened before, Xu Sui pretended not to see them, remained expressionless, and tried to walk past them.
This time, she didn't even hold Jinbao's hand.
The next second, however, the man suddenly called out to them, his voice somewhat hoarse.
"...SuiSui, you...aren't you even going to talk to me anymore?"
Xu Sui paused, ignored the other person, and quickly walked away.
She could treat Jinbao normally, only because of her mother, Wang Yinhua, and also because she didn't dislike Jinbao.
But she couldn't bring herself to act as if nothing had happened with her half-brother, He Quan.
Xu Sui quickened her pace and hurried away.
She could still hear He Quan calling her by her nickname from behind.
She ignored him, and he didn't chase after her.
……
"Dad, Auntie is gone." Jinbao hesitated for a long time, but still didn't go with Xu Sui. Instead, he stopped and grabbed He Quan's hand.
My aunt doesn't seem to like my dad.
He Quan fell silent, staring at the direction where Xu Sui's figure disappeared, standing there motionless for a long time.
