Gu Wan looked at Zhao Congyi from a distance, and Zhao Congyi seemed to have sensed something and raised his eyes to meet her gaze.

He curled the corners of his lips at her to comfort her, and when the person next to him came over to find him, he immediately retracted his gaze and began to talk to the other person seriously.

"By the way, Gu Zhiqing, wait a minute. I heard from my daughter that you guys are going to start a fire yourself?"

The branch secretary led the medical team towards Fang Ping's medical room. Several people were looking at the roster. When they reached a fork in the road, Fang Ping called her.

"Yes, everything has been prepared. Since there are so many people, I thought it would be more convenient to do it separately."

Fang Ping didn't bother to be polite with Gu Wan at this time. After all, there were more than a dozen people. She wasn't worried about food. The pots and bowls at home were small. If more than a dozen people really ate at her place, they would probably have to start preparing the next meal right after they finished eating.

"Thank you very much. I heard that you haven't bought all your things yet. You can have lunch at my place today. Please don't refuse. I am sorry to bother you. I don't know the situation. I am sorry for that."

She was talking about letting the medical team move into her house.

"What's the big deal? Auntie is just too polite. I should thank you for renting this house. It's more lively with more people at home. They also helped me fetch water and firewood."

Seeing that she really didn't seem to mind, Fang Ping felt relieved.

"Then remember to come to my house for lunch when you come back at noon? You brought me some chicken and rabbit meat yesterday. If you don't come to eat, I'll just return the dishes to you."

Gu Wan gave all the pastries and prey that she bought from the black market yesterday to Fang Ping. It’s not that she was generous or anything, but it was really a rare opportunity for her to go to the county.

And I was eating with Fang Ping, so I thought I would just give it to Fang Ping and eat together. Besides, it was rare for me to give something as a present, and it would not look good if it was too simple.

"Okay, don't worry, auntie."

"Cough cough~"

"Doctor Zhao?" Fang Ping turned her head when she heard the voice and found it was Zhao Congyi. She called out in surprise, "Doctor Zhao, is there anything I can help you with?"

Fang Ping knew that the young man opposite was her daughter's leader, so she was particularly enthusiastic towards him and thought that Zhao Congyi came to talk to her about something.

"Is there something wrong with the infirmary?"

Zhao Congyi shook his head lightly and said, "Doctor Fang is over there, there will be no problem." After he said that, he looked at Gu Wan under the puzzled gazes of the two women opposite him.

Gu Wan's expression tensed and she rubbed her fingers unconsciously in her palms.

"The team has prepared some food for everyone in our medical team. We have already sent it home. But if Gu Zhiqing wants to go buy food later, I won't let you pay for it. These are our medical team's. You can buy as much as you like. If there is less, you can come back and I will give you more. Is that okay with you?"

He handed a stack of money to Gu Wan. Gu Wan's eyebrows jumped and she slowly relaxed her held breath. Fang Ping, who was standing next to her, saw that this was the case and didn't say anything.

Because Fang Qinghen also took the food for those girls to the kitchen.

"No, that's not necessary. Just give it to me when I buy it." Gu Wan was a little nervous at first, but became more and more comfortable in the end.

Zhao Congyi thought about it and took back the money. "Then thank you very much, Gu Zhiqing."

There was nothing unusual in his words. Fang Ping had finished her talk, and Zhao Congyi happened to be here, so she repeated to him what she had just said to Gu Wan.

"It's like this, Zhao Zhiqing. You are all my daughter's colleagues. I wanted to treat you to a meal this time. Can you come to my house for lunch today?"

"No, I..." Fang Ping waved her hand to stop him from saying the next thing:

"I heard from Qing Hen that you are going to cook together with Gu Zhiqing from now on, just for today." She stretched out a finger and made a number.

Zhao Cong felt a little embarrassed and looked at Gu Wan.

"I also called Gu Zhiqing. It's a rare opportunity for everyone to come. I'm really happy. I also hope that Dr. Zhao can give me some face and come for dinner."

Zhao Congyi retracted his gaze and looked at Fang Ping:

"Then trouble you."

"It's okay, it's okay. You are all Qinghen's colleagues. Don't be so polite. Just treat it as your own home."

Zhao Congyi smiled politely and didn't say anything. Because he had to prepare meals for so many people, Fang Ping just said hello and left.

Gu Wan also wanted to leave, but was stopped by Zhao Congyi.

He took out the stack of money from his pocket, pulled out a Great Unity banknote, and then took out two more bills and handed them to Gu Wan.

His hands were very white, with the knuckles slightly pink.

But those hands were very big, and the veins on the back of the hands were bulging. You could tell from the look that the man was very strong.

"Dr. Fang is treating us to lunch at noon, so it's not nice to go empty-handed. But I might be busy today, so I can only trouble you to buy something for me."

After hearing this, Gu Wan took the money.

"What do you want to buy?"

"Just buy whatever you think is right." After the money in his hand was empty, he casually put that hand into one of his trouser pockets.

The other hand hangs naturally at one side.

"I have some things to do. Just buy whatever you want. If you are short of money, can you tell me?"

Zhao Congyi waited for a while, and seeing that Gu Wan didn't say anything, he said hello and left.

Just at the moment of turning her head, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and tiny stars twinkled in her eyes.

Gu Wan didn’t think anything of it. Isn’t it normal social etiquette to give something when you go to someone’s house for a meal?

She didn't think much about it. After putting the money in her pocket, she walked towards home. She wanted to go there with Xu Wenyin.

Although what I bought were not big items but small small things, I still bought quite a few pieces in scattered pieces.

After a short meeting in the infirmary, Xu Wenyin was rushed over to go shopping with Gu Wan. When Gu Wan returned home, Xu Wenyin had already put on her backpack and was eating a piece of candy bar in her hand.

Seeing Gu Wan approaching, her eyes lit up:

"Gu Zhiqing, you're back." She raised the thing in her hand:

"Sister Fanghua just gave it to me. Do you want to try one?"

Gu Wan had never eaten this before. When she saw it at the supply and marketing cooperative, she thought it was a bit oily, although she was curious about what it tasted like.

But you can't just buy one, right?

Not to mention whether people are willing to sell you just one to try, I would feel embarrassed to buy just one. So, even after coming here for so long, I still haven't tried the special snacks of this era.

"Okay!"

Xu Wenyin took out the paper bag from the backpack, opened it and handed it to Gu Wan, "Gu Zhiqing, try it quickly."
