Chapter 1556: Roof Leaks While It Rains

~4 min read 787 words

This matter had grown quite large; while they were discussing it inside the house, they heard someone outside say that the hospital's blood supply was insufficient and the unit had already ordered soldiers to go donate blood.

Hearing this situation, everyone felt anxious for that child, fearing some bad news might return.

But until night fell, no news returned.

Wei Wenbin was also affected, after all, they had spent quite a bit of time together playing these past days.

That night, even Liu Chuxue did not sleep well; after closing the door, she took the triplets directly into the space.

There were still three untranslated translation documents brought back before the New Year; she translated half of one directly before feeling sleepy.

Seeing no movement outside and being truly too sleepy to bear it, she finally brought the children out of the space and fell asleep thinking about the matter.

The next day, opening her eyes, she saw Fu Yan Cheng sitting by the bed; after a moment of confusion, she suddenly woke up clearly: "You're back?"

She didn't know if it was because she missed him or because of yesterday's incident; sitting up, she threw herself into his arms.

After a while, she said: "Fu Yan Cheng, Captain Xu's son Genhong was injured by a wild boar; I heard the injury is quite severe."

Fu Yan Cheng held her just like that, gently patting her back: "I heard; the leg was saved, but the doctor said the injury is somewhat severe and has damaged the nerves."

He did not continue with the following words.

Liu Chuxue leaned in his arms, speaking somewhat gloomily: "Has there been any discussion on how to handle this matter?"

Fu Yan Cheng held the person: "The higher-ups have not yet announced a handling result."

Auntie Wei had finished cooking; knowing Fu Yan Cheng had just returned home from a mission, she did not enter the room: "Yan Cheng, Chuxue, the meal is ready."

After speaking, she retreated back to the kitchen.

Because Fu Yan Cheng still needed to return to the unit to write a report, after eating at home he said: "Wife, I'll return to the unit first to write the report; I won't take the leave now; next week we'll take the children back to the city."

Originally, they had thought about hosting a few tables in the family compound before returning to the city, but with the wild boar injury incident occurring, it was naturally unsuitable to host guests anymore.

Not long after Fu Yan Cheng left, Tao Saozi arrived at the house with a woman: "Tao Saozi, who is this?"

Tao Saozi quickly introduced her to Liu Chuxue: "Sister-in-law, this is our Colonel Kong's wife, Wang Limei; due to health reasons, she rarely stays on the unit side, so you haven't seen her before."

Liu Chuxue hurriedly invited the person inside: "Sister-in-law Kong, hello."

Jiang Limei smiled: "My old Kong has praised you no end, saying you are a woman of fortune; not long after marriage, your husband was promoted to Deputy Colonel, and now you've given birth to triplets; just now hearing your Tao Saozi was coming, I followed along to get to know you; we are in the same regiment, we can't meet and not know each other."

After seeing the triplets, Sister-in-law Kong's eyes went straight: "You are too good at raising children; they are all white and chubby, raised so well."

Sister-in-law Kong had a good temperament; the three of them chatted very compatibly.

After various praises, she finally stated the purpose of this visit: "There is another matter I came for today, and I want to discuss it with you."

She had thought so; the Colonel Kong's family hadn't been seen for such a long time, how could it be just to visit the triplets: "Sister-in-law, please speak."

After Sister-in-law Kong sighed lightly: "It concerns the matter of Captain Xu's family."

Liu Chuxue frowned: "Does his family have other matters?"

After all, she had heard that the child's current treatment costs were being paid by those few troublemakers; what other matters were there?

After Sister-in-law Kong sighed lightly again: "Captain Xu's parents, upon hearing their grandson's accident, became so anxious that the old lady had a stroke, and the old man slipped down a slope on the way to fetch a Physician, fracturing both legs.

His family also has elderly grandparents; he is the only child in the family; life was already difficult, and with these consecutive incidents, life at home is now very hard; Captain Xu's wife has been going door-to-door borrowing money since early morning; I was thinking, can we organize the regiment's wives to donate funds to help them?"
