“I got food poisoning together with my two roommates.
I’m mostly better now, but they’re still suffering,” He Zhilan laughed and continued, “If you’re not used to the local water, you could start by drinking bottled mineral water, the kind you’re used to, and then slowly transition.”
“The school doctor also suggested the same thing, but I didn’t know this at first.
I never knew I could have such a delicate constitution,” Ya Dan chuckled with a wide grin, “My husband panicked at seeing me in this state.
He thought I had fallen terribly ill and insisted on taking me to the hospital.
His unnecessary worry was quite amusing!
By the way, where’s your husband?”
“He’s in the military, he returned to his post a while ago,” He Zhilan responded while taking the medication from the school doctor.
Upon hearing her words, the school doctor looked at He Zhilan more intently and cautioned her, “If your stomach doesn’t agree with you, eat less from the street food stalls around the student district.
Especially the kebabs.
If you can’t resist, have a bit but don’t gorge.
The one who suffers is you.
As your husband is a soldier, he will worry if you’re not taking good care of yourself at school.
As an army wife, you must be more responsible than others.”
Scolded unexpectedly, He Zhilan couldn’t retort as the school doctor was older.
She nodded and displayed a receptive demeanor.
The ladies took their medication and holding hands, left the medical center.
Once they were at a distance, Ya Dan chuckled and jabbed He Zhilan’s arm, “I heard the school doctor used to be a military doctor who came to our school after retiring.
His being extra stern with you was probably because he found out your husband’s in the military.”
He Zhilan nodded, “However, he’s not wrong.
As army wives, we should be more responsible.
Your husband was so worried because you couldn’t acclimate.
If my husband found out I caught a stomach virus because of my gluttony, he’d probably be both irritated and flustered.”
“I suppose your husband would be angry and then scold you more sternly than the school doctor.
Unlike my fool of a husband, freaking out over such a minor thing.
Your husband is much more mature and composed than mine.
But he seems to be a man of few words, quite silent,” Ya Dan mused.
Her husband and she were closer in age than He Zhilan and He Teng, so expecting her husband to be as composed as He Teng was unlikely in the next few years.
“He is rather silent, but I’d say it’s more like quiet strength,” He Zhilan smiled.
Since she had to deliver medicine and food to her roommates, she didn’t have long to chat with Ya Dan.
They separated at the intersection.
He Zhilan thought, her He Teng was more than just rather silent.
Among all the people she knew, he was probably the most silent.
Upon returning with medicine and porridge, He Zhilan immediately became a benefactor in Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting’s eyes.
They gulped down a few mouthfuls of porridge, took their medicine, and got right back into bed.
Judging by how they looked, they would need to take the afternoon off.
He Zhilan vividly remembered being encouraged in high school: “Work hard for these three years and you’ll be set.
College life is heaven.” But when they actually got to college, they all realized their high school teachers were just saying that to make it sound appealing.
