Eating melons and raising children in the period literature

Several people came out of Ma Jizu's house and went straight to the village clinic.

"Uncle Jiang, Uncle Jiang, are you there? We are here to see you," Ma Jianfang started shouting as soon as he entered the room. He had previously gone fishing in the river and had injured his foot on a rock in the river, and it was Jiang Qingye who healed him. That incident also made him and Jiang Qingye familiar with each other, and he did not treat himself as an outsider when he came to the clinic.

"You little brat, keep your voice down. I don't think you're here to see me! I'm sure you're capable of that. If you want to see him, come in. I'm just about to change his medicine." Jiang Qingye stood at the door, holding medicine and a syringe, and teased Ma Jianfang.

"Hey, you know what's going on. I rescued this guy yesterday. Did he say why he woke up? What's his name?" Ma Jianfang asked the question they were most concerned about with a smile, not minding Jiang Qingye's teasing at all.

Wen Jing, Wen Xuan and others followed Ma Jianfang into the clinic and greeted Jiang Qingye.

"Hey! Did you find the person? Did you carry the person back? How could you be the one who saved the person? How can you be so shameless?" Jiang Qingye liked to see Ma Jianfang jumping up and down in anger, so she knew how to make him angry.

"Why didn't I save him? If you don't believe me, ask my sister, Wenxuan and the others. We saved him together. Besides, if I hadn't found my dad, how could he have been carried back? You're making me so angry." Ma Jianfang was so angry that he was walking around in circles in the room, trying to explain that he participated in the rescue. Although he was not the only one who saved the man, he felt that his contribution was the greatest.

"Okay, the person is lying in there! He must be awake by now. He can hear everything you say. Don't you want to go in and take a look?" Jiang Qingye saw that Ma Jianfang was getting anxious, so she stopped teasing him and changed the subject to the purpose of his visit.

"Ah! He heard everything. Let's go in and see him," Ma Jianfang said as he walked into the inner room without explaining his contribution to saving people to Jiang Qingye.

Ma Jianfang opened the door curtain and saw a particularly good-looking man lying on the bed. He looked up at him and his mind went blank.

The person on the bed had a thin blanket on his stomach, revealing his strong arms. Perhaps it should not be called strong, but rather the muscles are well-defined, looking strong and powerful. His face was like a sculpture with distinct features and an angular face that was unusually handsome. He looked serious and cold, but the smile that inadvertently revealed in his eyes made people feel very safe.

"Hello, my name is Gu Changting, I am a soldier from the nearby military district. Thank you for saving me," Gu Changting said as gently as possible. The soldiers under his command were usually very afraid of him. Everyone privately called him the big devil. He knew this, but he knew very well that the more he trained, the better he could protect himself during missions and would not lose his life because of some small mistakes. So over the years, he became more and more like his father, serious and cold-faced.

"Hello, my name is Ma Jianfang, hehe, hehe." Ma Jianfang quickly made way for the person behind to come in.

Yinping, Wenjing and Wenxuan followed him in. They were all so nervous that they didn't know what to do. They just mechanically followed Ma Jianfang inside.

"Heh! Aren't you usually quite talkative? Now you've become mute." Jiang Qingye couldn't help but tease Ma Jianfang again. "These are the children who found you yesterday. They came to see you today. They are all relatives. The father of the two little girls is also from the nearby military region. I heard that they are all battalion commanders now."

Jiang Qingye pointed at Wen Dan and Wen Ran and said, "I'm afraid the children will feel uncomfortable, so I'll give them something to talk about." "I've changed your medicine and I'm going to go to Old Man Wang's house in the village. Let these children accompany you. If you have anything to say, just tell them. I'll be back soon." Jiang Qingye said as he changed the medicine, "If you have nothing to do, just help me take care of him here. I'm going to go on a medical visit. Can you help me buy some water or something?"

"Okay, we got it, Uncle Jiang," Yin Ping responded and agreed immediately.

"You little brat can't be relied upon. Young girls are better. They can help an old man like me." Jiang Qingye did not forget to tease Ma Jianfang before leaving.

"I understand, Old Jiangtou. I will definitely help you take good care of him. Humph." Ma Jianfang reacted at this time and choked

"Uncle, are you feeling better?" Wen Yuan looked at the room and saw that no one was talking, so he asked.

"What's your name? I'm much better now. Thank you all." Gu Changting could only try his best not to scare them and answered in the most gentle tone he thought.

"My name is Yang Wenyuan, this is my sister Wenjing, brother Wenxuan, sister Wenqian. And this is our sister Yinping and brother Jianfang. They are my second uncle's children, Wendan and Wenran." Wenxuan introduced the companions one by one.

"Hello. I don't have anything to do these days. If you want to go out and play, go out and play." Gu Changting saw that the children were still a little restrained and uncomfortable in front of him, so he thought that they probably didn't want to stay with him, so he suggested that they go out and play.

"No, we promised to take care of you, we can't break our promise. You can tell us if you have anything. We just came to see you." Yinping is a very responsible and stubborn person. She thinks that since she promised others, she should do it, so she spoke quickly before thinking. Then she hesitated a little, thinking that she shouldn't be so firm in her words, what if Wenjing and the others are not happy?

"It's okay, we just came to see you. We don't have anything to do anyway, so we can wait here for Uncle Jiang to come back before leaving," Wen Jing explained.

The others nodded and said they could wait for Jiang Qingye to come back.

"Then let's talk. What do your parents do? I know that the fathers of the two girls are soldiers. What about you?" Gu Changting wanted to learn more about the families of his little saviors so that he could repay them in the future.

"My father is the village secretary, and that's my sister, my biological sister. It was my father who was brought back by you," Ma Jianfang answered loudly, standing at attention with his legs and fists clenched, his head held high and his chest puffed out, just like a new soldier.

"No need to be so formal, let's just chat."

"My parents were both soldiers, but they both died. We live with my aunt and uncle now." Wenxuan introduced himself clearly in one sentence.

"I'm sorry, uncle, I didn't mean it. So what do you usually do?" Gu Changting felt that his question seemed to have brought up the sad stories of several children, so he immediately changed the subject. Although it was a bit awkward, he really tried his best. Usually he was responsible for training, and these chats and heart-to-heart talks were done by the political commissar, who was really unfamiliar with them.

"We usually study at home in the morning, sleep and go out to play in the afternoon. Meeting you is the first time we go out to play in the morning." Wenxuan seems to have a kind of ability to always end the conversation with one sentence.

This made Gu Changting not know how to respond. At this moment, he heard someone outside.

"Doctor Jiang, Doctor Jiang, are you there?" Then he went into the inner room. "Ah? Excuse me, what are you doing here? Do you know where Doctor Jiang is?" Su Xiaoxiao lifted the door curtain and saw Wen Jing, Wen Xuan and the other children.
