Chapter 228 Vigilance
Chapter 228 Vigilance
Tian Guihua had wanted to swap houses with Ye Nuan, but Ye Nuan refused. After that, Tian Guihua never liked Ye Nuan.
Now that Xiang Lan and Zheng Fu have moved out, the house is empty, and Tian Guihua naturally has her eye on it.
Tian Guihua's family wasn't the only one eyeing the house, but she acted quickly and resorted to tantrums and shamelessness, managing to outmaneuver the other families.
The logistics leaders couldn't stand it either, and were thinking of approving it.
Before they could even sign, their superiors called.
Alright, nobody should even think about that house anymore.
With Zheng Fu gone, Gu Hanchuan also successfully removed the title of "deputy," and now his Third Regiment can be said to be the best in the entire division.
But we must not be complacent; we must continue to work hard.
As for the house Zheng Futeng left, someone quickly came to clean it up. First, they repainted the walls, then they swept the yard inside and out, and finally they carried in some old furniture.
Although they are somewhat used, the furniture is still in pretty good quality.
Moreover, these pieces of furniture were not moved from any household in the residential compound, but were transported directly in from outside.
This is puzzling.
Tian Guihua was furious.
Just when I was about to get the house, someone else snatched it away!
"I don't know where this big shot came from, trying to snatch the house right away. It's infuriating! I don't want to find out who it is, otherwise, I'll make him pay."
After Wang Jianming returned, he kept a sullen face.
"Alright, put away your little schemes. I've inquired, and that house is temporarily occupied by a retired leader. I heard he's here to recuperate, and since it's right next to Dr. Ye's house, he probably intends to ask Dr. Ye for help with his health."
Tian Guihua became even angrier upon hearing this.
"Isn't Ye Nuan's house big enough for everyone to live in? Why does she need to live in another apartment? Isn't this just bullying honest people like us!"
Wang Jianming rolled his eyes. "You honest guy?"
Pull it down!
"I already said it might be a leader. Don't ask anymore. With things like this, let's observe and listen more, and say less. What if they only stay for a month or two and then leave?"
Tian Guihua's eyes lit up: "That's right! If we only stay for a month or two and then leave, the house will still have to be empty. We can move in then."
Thinking about it this way, Tian Guihua felt much better.
Ye Nuan was unaware of this because Gu Hanchuan was on a mission and no one knew where he was.
Li Xiu brought the diapers, which had been drying in the sun outside, into the house: "Your place is quite nice. The stove you made looks useful too; at least we won't suffer in the winter."
“The winters here are especially cold, and the kind of cold that’s damp. But before we moved in, we had Gu Hanchuan install this fireplace, so every winter, Sister-in-law Xiang Lan and Sister-in-law Gao often come here to knit sweaters with me.”
When this was mentioned, Ye Nuan's voice suddenly stopped, because Xiang Lan had left.
"Alright, life is long, and there will be many colleagues, friends, and relatives coming and going! You'll get used to it."
Ye Nuan nodded. She knew that many things couldn't be done the way she wanted them to be.
Liu Zhengang and Xiao Gangpao became friends, but Xiao Gangpao had to work, so Liu Zhengang took care of picking up and dropping off Yueyue from school.
According to seniority, Yueyue should call Liu Zhengang "uncle," but Liu Zhengang calls Xiaogangpao "brother." Tsk, what a mess of relationships.
"Nuan Nuan, another colleague has come to visit you."
Ye Nuan cheered herself up. Her figure had basically returned to its pre-pregnancy state, which was surprising. But those who knew her well knew that when she was pregnant, Ye Nuan only gained weight in her belly, and her arms, legs and face did not gain much weight.
Today, Director Su came, followed by Duan Gang and An Zhi.
Ye Nuan frowned; this An Zhi really was a persistent ghost.
"Xiao Ye, how are you? Wow, you're recovering really well!"
"Yes, the recovery is going well, but because I'm still learning how to take care of the child, my focus is still on the child."
"Hmm, you seem to be doing well. Do you really need to take such a long maternity leave?"
Ye Nuan was both amused and exasperated: "Teacher, what's the use of me recovering well? I still have to raise my child! Besides, it's only because my mom and cousin are here now, but they can't help take care of the child forever. I have to learn how to take care of the child myself eventually."
"That's true. Taking care of a child is hard work. You should learn more about it and see if you can put the knowledge about infants and toddlers that you learned at school to use."
Ye Nuan chuckled: "Teacher, did you come to see me, or to test me?"
His words made everyone laugh.
This was Duan Gang's second visit. The first time he came, Ye Nuan was still in her postpartum period.
This time, there's actually something important to discuss.
"Dr. An, I didn't expect you to come."
“I happened to run into Director Su and Dr. Duan at the hospital entrance. They said they were going to visit you, and I thought it was on my way, plus it had been a long time since I’d seen you.”
"Thank you."
No matter what, since they've come to visit, you can't be rude.
Li Qiang served everyone melon seeds and peanuts, and poured each of the three a cup of honey water.
"Aren't you going to hold a full moon celebration for your baby?"
"This isn't common in the compound. It's just a simple treat for everyone to have some melon seeds and candy. As for our hospital, we'll just arrange two tables at the state-run restaurant later."
That makes sense.
Now we can't hold large banquets, so we should invite guests separately and set up two fewer tables to avoid attracting attention.
The main reason is that Gu Hanchuan has just been promoted, so it's best not to be too high-profile at this time.
Anzhi looked around the room: "Why isn't the child here?"
"Oh, my mom is taking her to sleep inside."
Anzhi laughed and said, "Then let's keep our voices down and not wake the child."
"It's alright, this child sleeps well and won't be woken up by ordinary noise."
Anzhi noticed that Li Qiang was tidying up the baby's clothes and diapers, and offered to help her.
"No, no, baby stuff has a milky smell, and it's not nice for you to touch it."
Anzhi didn't mind and took the initiative to help tidy up, and also asked a couple of questions such as whether the child slept well.
After seeing them off, Ye Nuan returned to the house, her face darkening: "Sister, what things did Anzhi touch on the child?"
"Oh, she touched all of these, but her hands looked clean, so she should be fine."
Ye Nuan glanced at it, narrowed her eyes and said, "Put out everything she has touched separately, I want to check it all."
"Row."
Ye Nuan never let her guard down around An Zhi.
However, after checking, it was found that there was indeed no problem.
At this moment, Ye Nuan also realized that she might be overthinking things. Right under her nose, An Zhi wouldn't have such a big heart!
