My little country wife whom I haven't seen for eight years has come to join the army

Ding Peipei was the first to support this statement: "Sister Xiaoyu is right. Our oldest sister-in-law is only in her early thirties, which is the most beautiful time for a woman. Why does she wear a blue shirt and black pants every day? Are beautiful flowery dresses only for female employees in the factory?"

She came up to Zhou Ruoyu excitedly and said, "I like this one. Not only is it not available in our supply and marketing cooperative, it's also a style I haven't seen in the Luancheng Department Store. It's so beautiful."

Of course it looks good. She designed a youthful and playful short skirt for Ding Peipei, which is a timeless style and one that girls aged eighteen or nineteen cannot refuse.

“Mine looks good too!”

"I think you'll look better in this. You're thinner than me..."

Clothes and cosmetics seemed to be timeless topics for women no matter what era. At this moment, the room was filled with chatter. Lu Qinchuan curled his lips and went to Captain Zhu's yard to watch the two children playing in the mud.

"If you like it, please ask Sister Zhou to help you cut it out one by one. It's a good learning process for everyone. Everyone can use a sewing machine, right?"

Zhou Ruoyu's face was full of smiles. She naturally didn't have a sewing machine, but the other military wives should have one at home.

Because nowadays the wedding gifts will include "three turns and one ring", sewing machines, watches, bicycles and radios are standard gifts, so they are very standard household necessities.

When asked this question, it turned out that except for Ding Peipei, the other military wives all knew how to use it. Every family had children, so they learned how to use it even if they were forced to do so.

"Then everyone go back and prepare. Let's start with Xiao Ding's outfit tomorrow, okay?"

Everyone agreed and went back with smiles on their faces. Zhou Shufen was about to leave with the crowd, but Zhou Ruoyu stopped her and said, "Sister Zhou, aren't we going to the hospital for a physical examination?"

"Physical examination?" Zhou Shufen patted her forehead. "Look at my head. When Old Zhu left this morning, he told me to just go to the hospital and see Nurse Tan. She'll take us for the examination."

Zhou Ruoyu and Lu Qinchuan said they would be back before lunch, and then they and Zhou Shufen got on the car to the military hospital.

There are buses similar to buses between the military compound and various government agencies, and we soon arrived at the military hospital.

As soon as I arrived at the department that Captain Zhu mentioned, I saw Tan Ying in the corridor.

Why did I think this person was Tan Ying at first sight? Because this woman was wearing a clean white gown and looked so frail that it was easy for people to feel pity for her. How could a woman who could make Captain Zhu, a strong man, feel so guilty that he had to support her with his allowance, not look so delicate and pitiful?

"Hello, we're looking for Nurse Tan Ying. Captain Zhu sent us here for a physical exam."

"Ah, hello, hello."

What Tan Ying saw in front of her was not a country woman in a blue shirt and black pants, but two slim women in dresses. The one who was speaking was looking at her with a pair of beautiful eyes.

She was a little stunned for a moment: "Ah, I'm Tan Ying. Old Zhu called early this morning to say that my sister-in-law and Captain Lu's family would come over for a physical examination, so I stayed here early."

Then a pair of watery eyes swept across the faces of the two people one by one: "Excuse me, which one is my sister-in-law?"

When Zhou Shufen heard that a phone call from their old Zhu had made the nurses in the hospital who were almost arrogant and scornful stay here, she felt very proud. She stepped forward, shook Tan Ying's hand and said, "I am. I have heard of Nurse Tan for a long time. She is so beautiful."

Idiot! Although this is Daya's biological mother, Zhou Ruoyu still couldn't help but think of this word in her mind.

She pulled Zhou Shufen back: "Sister Zhou, Sister Zhou..."

Zhou Shufen then realized that her words and actions were a little inappropriate when they first met, so she let go of Tan Ying's hand with a wry smile.

Tan Ying sneered inwardly: "No matter how well she dresses, she'll look like a country bumpkin once she opens her mouth."

But she didn't show it on her face, and kept smiling: "Is this Captain Lu's family member? Then let's go in. I filled out the form for you early in the morning, just go for the examination."

In the 1960s and 1970s, almost no one had the awareness to get a physical examination. Only cadres with chronic diseases would have regular physical examinations on doctor's orders. So now there is no need to queue up for a checkup.

When it came time to do the physical examination, Zhou Shufen became inexplicably nervous and hid behind Zhou Ruoyu: "Sister, do it yourself. I won't do it."

"Why?" Zhou Ruoyu was surprised.

Zhou Shufen, like a coward, stammered, "It was fine before, but what if the test shows something wrong? I don't dare to do it anymore."

Tan Ying, hands in the pockets of her white coat, smiled gently and advised, "Actually, it's very good to have regular physical examinations. Even if something is wrong, sister-in-law, don't be afraid to see a doctor. Actively cooperate. Any disease will be cured sooner or later."

Zhou Ruoyu clenched her fingers. This woman's words were too dark. After hearing these threats from her, Zhou Shufen, a housewife, was so scared that her legs went weak.

"Don't be afraid, Sister Zhou. I'll go in and check first, and then you can check. Everything will be fine. The physical examination is just to understand your health status." She patted Zhou Shufen's hand and gave her a firm look.

Zhou Ruoyu went in, leaving Tan Ying and Zhou Shufen outside. Zhou Shufen sat on a chair, rubbing her hands on her knees, still nervous.

Tan Ying squatted down and placed her soft, boneless hand on Zhou Shufen's. "Don't be nervous, sister-in-law. Good things happen to those who are lucky. Captain Zhu is such a good person, so naturally, his family will be fine."

Zhou Shufen raised her eyes and looked at him: "You are quite familiar with Lao Zhu?"

The woman's natural sensitivity was exposed, as her attention was easily diverted, and Tan Ying couldn't help feeling a little proud.

A hint of panic flashed in her eyes. "I just heard from my sister-in-law that she had heard of me. I thought she heard it from Captain Zhu. Captain Zhu and I are not familiar with each other. We just have some work-related interactions."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Zhou Shufen remembered her status as an orphan and a widow, and couldn't help asking, "How long has your husband been dead?"

……

In this situation, why did this woman suddenly bring up the identity she had been trying so hard to hide? Tan Ying's face flushed instantly. She stood up and bit her lip tightly: "Sister-in-law...you..."

Her eyes were filled with a pitiful sadness. Even Zhou Shufen, a woman, couldn't bear to ask any more questions: "Oh, sister-in-law, don't ask anymore. You must be sad. I have such a big mouth..."

Zhou Shufen's nervousness eased considerably after being distracted. She began to worry about Zhou Ruoyu again: "Why hasn't my sister come out yet? It's been a long time, hasn't it?"

Tan Ying sniffed and glanced at the door of the examination room: "It's possible that the examination will reveal some problems. Don't be nervous, sister-in-law."

"What? There's something wrong with my sister. How can this be?" Zhou Shufen was so anxious that she started to run around like an ant on a hot pan.

Tsk, he's just a neighbor, why would you really care so much? How funny!

Tan Ying was secretly complaining when the door opened and Zhou Ruoyu walked out.
