After staying at the Bai family for a while, giving away the tangram and saying goodbye, Cheng Qing went back with the child.
When little Bai Luochuan was carried to the door, he didn't notice anything yet, because Mi Yang was still within his sight. They were often held by adults to communicate with each other. But when he saw Mi Yang being carried away and out of sight, he kicked his legs anxiously to look for him, shouting "Yeah". Mrs. Bai gave him a biscuit to coax him, but he threw it to the ground with a sullen face.
Mrs. Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She poked him on the forehead and said, "You have such a bad temper. I really don't know who you resemble!"
Political Commissar Bai had just returned with his guards. He looked unhappy and frowned, unable to relax. Madam Bai asked him, "What's wrong?"
Political Commissar Bai sat down and drank a glass of water. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Who else could it be? Dad insisted on coming here. He said he wanted to see the results of the training in the field area this year."
Mrs. Bai smiled and said, "That's great, are we going to the division headquarters?"
Political Commissar Bai shook his head and said, "No, he wants to come here."
Mrs. Bai looked at him in surprise and asked, "Dad is coming? When did you say that? When will he arrive?"
Political Commissar Bai said with a headache: "Just now, someone called me on the internal line and said that the people were halfway there and they wanted to conduct a surprise inspection."
Mrs. Bai smiled and said, "That's perfect. I see that Captain Mi is well prepared. Besides, when has the Second Artillery Force ever lost face? Sometimes when Cheng Qing and I are knitting in the room, we can hear you guys doing shooting drills on the mountain!"
Political Commissar Bai said, "But Dad, it's not in accordance with the rules to not even say hello like this."
Madam Bai said, "He is the one who makes the rules. You should stop worrying about it and give Captain Mi a chance to show his abilities."
Political Commissar Bai sighed, nodded and said nothing more. He reached out to tease his son, but Bai Luochuan was in a bad mood because his "toy" had been taken away. He didn't even smile. After being poked in the stomach twice, he ruthlessly reached out to pry open his father's hand and shouted out one word in a crisp and clear voice: "No! No no!"
Political Commissar Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Who did you learn this from? Your pronunciation is quite standard."
He finally picked up his son, shook him in his hands, and said, "You've gotten fatter."
Xiaobai Luochuan stared at him with his eyes wide open, his little eyebrows raised, expressing his anger very vividly.
Political Commissar Bai had a subtle look on his face. He held his son in his arms and suddenly thought of the term "inheritance". It turned out that his son really had the same temper as his father, and he was extremely explosive.
On the other side, Mi Yang was taken back to his home.
He turned over in bed and watched his mother pack her luggage, feeling a little excited.
This time when he goes back, he will be able to see his grandma.
In his previous life, Mi Yang spent the rest of his childhood at his grandmother's house, except for a few months every year in the military camp. He was raised by the old lady and had a deep relationship with her. The old lady would keep any good things she received for him to eat when he came back, from a piece of ice cream and a few snacks when he was a child to the money Mi Yang gave her during festivals. The old lady rarely went out and didn't spend money. She saved all the money in a passbook, and when she saved an integer, she would give it to Mi Yang with a smile, so that he could use it to buy a house.
Mi Yang thought of his grandma and his eyes became red. He came back suddenly and the old lady couldn't find him and must be worried. She had a bad heart and he didn't know if she had any medicine with her.
In the evening, Mi Zehai and his wife made a big mistake.
Thinking about leaving, Cheng Qing wanted to cook for Mi Zehai and made his favorite white bread buns with pork and cabbage. The skin of each bun was white, tender and soft, with meatballs specially put inside. It was oily and particularly fragrant when you took a bite.
Mi Zehai ate six in one go, and Cheng Qing ate two himself. Seeing his son smacking his lips greedily beside him, Mi Zehai secretly fed Mi Yang half of the bun filling.
Mi Yang rarely cheats and is very cooperative.
But at night, Mi Yang burst into tears.
There is no other reason, the filling of the buns was too salty, his parents forgot to give him water, and he was thirsty!
But the new parents were at a panic. They took out various children's cough syrups and hawthorn digestive tablets and tried to feed them to Mi Yang, but the child pushed them away. The more Mi Yang couldn't drink the water, the harder he struggled. The worst thing was that he hadn't learned the word "water" from Bai Luochuan, so he couldn't say it out loud. He was really holding it in.
Cheng Qing rarely saw his son cry, so he thought too much and almost cried himself: "It's all your fault! It must be because of the orange soda during the day. I told you not to give it to Yangyang, but you didn't listen!"
Yonezawa Hai was also in a panic, and said: "Maybe it's not this, it's... Is he sick?"
Cheng Qing was so frightened that his hands and feet were shaking. He said, "I heard that eating unclean things can easily make you sick. Could it be appendicitis?"
The two hurriedly dressed, wrapped Mi Yang up and went to find a military doctor, but the military doctor didn't care about pediatrics. Seeing them panicking, he was also shocked and asked them to drive to the hospital for a checkup. When the military doctor said this, Cheng Qing's tears rolled down. Mi Zehai was busy looking for a car, but the car in the camp was not there. Fortunately, Political Commissar Bai had a special car, so he quickly sent a driver to drive over and take Mi Zehai and his family to the hospital.
When we arrived at the hospital, there happened to be an old doctor who was good at pediatrics sitting in the emergency room.
He first examined him carefully and then asked about his condition. Mi Yang was already listless at this moment. He thought to himself that if this old doctor wanted to operate on him, he would ignore everything and would definitely say the words "drink water" himself.
The old doctor looked at the child carefully for a long time, but he didn't think the child looked sick. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, did you bring a bottle? There is hot water in the office. You can get some for the child to drink first."
When the bottle was brought over, Mi Yang held the bottle and drank most of the water in one go before letting go. When he spit out the nipple, a loud "pop" sound was made. He was no longer listless and looked a hundred times more energetic!
The old doctor was immediately amused and said, "That's what I was thinking. You gave your child supplementary food at night and also ate bun stuffing. He must have gotten drunk. Don't worry. New parents make too many mistakes in your situation. Take the child home. No need to take medicine."
Mi Zehai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I fed him the wrong things."
Cheng Qing also burst into laughter. As long as the child was fine, it was fine. However, she felt a little embarrassed for causing trouble to Political Commissar Bai's family in the middle of the night.
The next day, she went to express her gratitude. Mrs. Bai was eager to ask about the child's condition. When she heard about their story, she couldn't help laughing and said, "It's good that he's not sick. Otherwise, you can stay for a few more days to observe. The child is young and can't say anything clearly. It's always better to be prepared."
Cheng Qing was a little hesitant.
Mrs. Bai advised again: "The train will take several days to get home. It would be troublesome if the child got sick on the train."
Cheng Qing thought about it and said, "That's right, let's postpone it for a few days."
Mi Yang also began to speak faster. He didn't dare to show how smart he was, so he took advantage of the adults' absence to work hard with Xiaobai Luochuan, practicing some useful spoken English with him. After Xiaobai proudly performed in public, he also started to "get it" after a few days, which surprised Cheng Qing.
