Chapter 242 I Want to Sleep in Your Arms
"She's also on the assessment list," Ren Liping told Xu Yu. "Someone reported today that she had an affair with a leader of our art troupe. If it's true, she'll probably be fired soon."
Xu Yu was silent for two seconds after hearing this, and then commented, "No wonder she has a good relationship with Comrade Jiang."
Ren Liping agreed: "Yes, they are both of the same kind."
Xu Yu subconsciously wanted to ask the director of the art troupe why he didn't know these things, but with Xie Lange around, it didn't feel right to ask her mother this in front of her.
Unexpectedly, Xie Lange explained to her first: "The art troupe has a clear division of labor. My mother deploys and arranges the work, and she goes on business trips from time to time. The people she interacts with are all her direct subordinates, so she doesn't have a clear understanding of the situation below."
Xu Yu nodded.
After finishing the conversation, Xie Lange said happily, "Anyway, it's all good now. Sister Liping will never be bullied by that kind of person again. Then she can date Brother Zhu."
Ren Liping blushed at this and said angrily, "Comrade Zhu and I haven't had much time to interact. We need to get to know each other first to see if our personalities are compatible. It's too early to start dating."
Xie Lange immediately said, "Then you should get to know each other more often in the future. Brother Zhu has a good personality, and you will definitely like him."
Ren Liping laughed and said, "You keep saying that Comrade Zhu likes me, but I haven't even seen him in the past few days. Even if I want to get in touch with him, I have to have a chance."
"Brother Zhu hasn't asked you out these two days?" Xie Langge was very surprised.
Ren Liping shook her head.
Xu Yu knew what was going on. After all, Zhu Juncheng led a team to look for Feng Zhitao, but they didn't find him, so he probably had no intention of falling in love.
She said, "Maybe Comrade Zhu has something to do recently and doesn't have time to meet you."
Ren Liping thought so too. She knew that people in the military were always busy.
As the three of them talked, they started talking about finding Feng Zhitao.
They also knew that Dr. Chang had gone to see Feng Zhitao.
Xie Lange asked Xu Yu, "If Dr. Chang can't come back at night, do you have to sleep with Huanhuan?"
Xu Yu nodded: "Huanhuan can't leave anyone by her side."
She didn't realize how difficult it was to sleep with a child.
So when the two of them brought Huanhuan back to their residence, Huanhuan became dazed again because she was in a new environment. She hugged Xu Yu's neck tightly and refused to get out of bed.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Yi said to Xu Yu, "I'll go boil some water for her to wash first."
Xu Yu followed him.
When they arrived at the kitchen, Jiang Yi lit the honeycomb coal and boiled water, then wanted to take Huanhuan in his arms.
But Huanhuan didn't want him to hug her at this time. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Huanhuan's body kept shaking.
Xu Yu couldn't bear it and said, "She looks even more insecure at night, so I'll hold her."
Jiang Yi looked at Huanhuan who had been nestled in Xu Yu's arms and asked her, "Are you tired?"
Xu Yu shook his head, glanced at Huanhuan, and said, "Huanhuan is too light. I feel like she weighs nothing even when I hold her."
Huanhuan is indeed light and small. She is only seven years old but looks like she is only four or five years old.
Xu Yu added, "After we take her back home, I'll figure out how to fatten her up."
Jiang Yi hummed.
After the water was boiled, Jiang Yi carried it to the bathroom.
When he entered, he said to Xu Yu, "Hold her and sit down first. I'll mix some water and call you."
Xu Yu nodded.
When Jiang Yi came over after mixing the water, Xu Yu was about to pick up Huan Huan, but he said, "Wife, don't move."
Xu Yu looked at him in confusion.
Unexpectedly, he came over and picked her up horizontally.
In this way, he held her and she held Huanhuan.
Jiang Yi said to Xu Yu, "This way you won't be so tired."
Xu Yu couldn't help laughing: "Actually, I'm really not tired."
Jiang Yi glanced at Huanhuan in her arms and disagreed with what she said.
Jiang Yi left only after he had carried both of them into the bathroom.
When he went out, he was still worried: "I'm outside, call me immediately if anything happens."
Xu Yu nodded at him. Although it was her first time bathing a child, Huanhuan was a girl, and it would definitely be inconvenient for Jiang Yi to stay here.
After Jiang Yi went out and closed the door, Xu Yu prepared to help Huanhuan take off her clothes.
Unexpectedly, Huanhuan burst into tears. Xu Yu was startled and hurriedly hugged her to comfort her.
Jiang Yi said worriedly outside the door: "Wife, if she doesn't want to wash, you wash her hands and face."
Xu Yu hummed, and in order to prevent Huanhuan from being scared, she gave her a soothing massage. After Huanhuan calmed down, she asked, "Huanhuan, sister will help you take a bath now. Don't be afraid. After the bath, our Huanhuan will smell delicious."
Fortunately, Huanhuan didn't object this time.
Next, Huanhuan sat on a small stool like a little wooden man and let Xu Yu help her take a bath.
While helping Huanhuan take a bath, Xu Yu also specially checked her bones, and at the same time planned in his mind how to nourish her.
After helping Huanhuan take a bath and put on clothes, Xu Yu simply asked Jiang Yi to bring her some water. She asked Huanhuan to sit next to her while she stood on the other side and quickly washed herself.
After everything was packed up, the two of them took Huanhuan upstairs to prepare for bed. Xu Yu and Jiang Yi looked at each other, with a little kid between them who trembled at the slightest movement.
Jiang Yi looked at the little one curled up in his wife's arms and said, "I'll sleep on the floor."
After saying that, he went to get the mat and quilt.
Xu Yu asked him to get a mattress: "The ground is cold at night, don't just lay the mat."
Jiang Yi went to get another mattress.
Xu Yu looked at Jiang Yi sleeping on the floor and said with a bit of heartache: "Brother Yi, just hold on for a few days. Once Doctor Chang finds someone, you can return Huanhuan to her."
Jiang Yi hummed.
After Jiang Yi made the bed on the floor, Xu Yu and Huanhuan lay down on the bed together.
It was still early, and seeing Huanhuan had her eyes open, she thought for a moment and asked Jiang Yi to read the children's book prepared by Dr. Chang to her.
Huanhuan seemed to have heard it, but also seemed not to have heard it.
After Xu Yu finished reading a story, he took the opportunity to ask Jiang Yi: "Brother Yi, is it time to plant rice at home?"
What I remember is that we planted rice around May Day.
Jiang Yi hummed and said, "Usually it's these two days."
Xu Yu originally wanted to call home to ask, but then he realized that his family was busy with farming and couldn't leave, so he said, "Let's call home after I finish the exam."
She has an exam in three days.
By that time, the busy farming season at home should be almost over.
"it is good."
After saying these words, Xu Yu turned his head to look at Huanhuan and saw that her eyes were still open.
Xu Yu reached out and touched Huanhuan's head, saying, "Huanhuan, come back to the countryside with your sister after a while. We have..."
She chattered to Huanhuan about their hometown.
Huanhuan just kept her eyes open and listened, and her eyes seemed to be more focused.
It took more than an hour before Huanhuan fell asleep.
After watching Huanhuan fall asleep, Xu Yu also lay on the bed and looked at Jiang Yi lying on the floor. She felt a little uncomfortable not being in his arms at night.
"Brother Yi."
"Ah."
"I can't sleep."
Jiang Yi sat up, reached out and touched her cheek, and asked, "Would you like some water?"
Xu Yu shook her head and told him directly: "I want to sleep in your arms."
Jiang Yi stared at her pretty face, thought for a moment, and simply stood up and sat on the edge of the bed. Then he let her rest her head on his thighs, and while stroking her head, he said, "Go to sleep."
Xu Yu asked him, "When do you think they will be able to catch Feng Zhitao?"
Jiang Yi: "It should be soon."
"Hopefully we can catch him tomorrow so Dr. Chang can take Huanhuan back home."
"Ah."
Xu Yu's hopes were doomed to fail.
Until the day of her exam, they still hadn't found Feng Zhitao, so Huanhuan was still taken care of by Xu Yu and Jiang Yi.
After Jiang Yi studied hard, he was able to hold Huanhuan all the time.
So now he basically doesn't let Xu Yu hug Huanhuan.
On the day of the exam, Dr. Hu and Jiang Yi, who was holding Huanhuan, sent Xu Yu out of the exam room.
The requirements for taking the physician skills test are very high in this era. Obtaining this certificate is equivalent to having an entry ticket to work in major hospitals across the country.
Therefore, all those who come to take this exam are very capable.
Doctor Hu said to Xu Yu, "Xiao Yu'er, don't be nervous during the exam just because the people taking the exam with you are older than you. Just take the exam casually."
Xu Yu smiled and nodded at him, saying, "I'm not nervous."
Then she looked at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi said to her, "Huanhuan and I will be waiting outside for you to come out."
Xu Yu smiled, nodded, and went in.
There were some people outside the examination room sending their children to take the exam.
Doctor Hu and Jiang Yi stood there for a while, and he was obviously getting a little impatient waiting, so he said to Jiang Yi, "Xiao Jiang, I'm going to go chat with someone. Do you want to come?"
