I became beautiful by eating melons

Chapter 184 Military Canteen

"Ye Rou, let's go and have dinner." Sun Xiaoxing leaned over and called Ye Rou with the iron lunch box.

The military district hospital is located in the First Military District. There is strict inspection for entry and exit. At noon, everyone working in the hospital will eat in the military district canteen and will not go home.

Before Ye Rou came, Grandma Ying told her that in order to get Jiang Chen to agree, she had agreed to a lot of excessive things.

She forgot to prepare a lunch box on her first day. Grandma Ying seemed to have guessed it and had someone send her a new lunch box earlier.

Ye Rou picked up the lunch box and followed Sun Xiaoxing out the door towards the cafeteria.

The military district canteen is not far from the hospital. It is very similar to the university canteens of later generations, with green walls, white tables and wooden chairs.

The hospital staff and the military district soldiers had different meal times, so when they arrived they only saw people in white coats moving around in the cafeteria.

The meals in the cafeteria are fixed every day, two vegetarian dishes, one meat dish and a portion of rice.

Yu Xiaomei flipped through the dried tofu and shredded pork in her lunch box and complained, "Is it my illusion? Why do I feel like there are fewer and fewer meat dishes in the cafeteria?"

He Shuhui, who was beside her, heard what she said and quickly pulled her away: "Keep your voice down. If those aunties serving food hear you, you'll get even less meat next time."

"Oh, I'm not full and I don't have the energy to work in the afternoon." Yu Xiaomei took her lunch box and found a place to sit down.

Nurses have heavy and hard work. They do all kinds of miscellaneous tasks in the hospital. If they don't eat enough at noon, they will starve before nightfall.

He Shuhui didn't listen to her complaints. Yu Xiaomei had this problem. She loved to complain about everything, and anyone who listened to her would worry with her.

Seeing that He Shuhui ignored her, Yu Xiaomei thought of Sun Xiaoxing's kindness. Then she remembered that she seemed to have not seen Sun Xiaoxing all morning.

She stuffed a piece of braised eggplant into her mouth and mumbled, "Shuhui, did Xiaoxing take a day off today?"

"As long as Xiao Heng is here, she won't ask for leave." He Shuhui replied.

Yu Xiaomei curled her lips when she heard Xiao Heng's name, "I don't know what Xiao Xing sees in Xiao Heng. He keeps his hands in his pockets all day and his smile is fake."

He Shuhui also hated Xiao Heng. Xiao Heng's mother, Yuan Hejing, as the former director of the hospital, always assigned the heaviest and dirtiest work to these female nurses. She had been in poor health since childhood and had no strength in her hands. On her first day at work, Yuan Hejing arranged for her to deal with medical waste. A large bucket of garbage had to be moved to the gate of the military area. She wanted to find someone else to help, but Yuan Hejing scolded her. In the end, she was deducted work points for doing the work. She got angry when she thought of this.

"That's not right." Yu Xiaomei asked in confusion: "If Xiaoxing didn't ask for leave, why didn't I see her this morning?"

"She went to take care of the newcomers." He Shuhui added: "Shen Meng at the reception desk said that Dean Ying brought a very beautiful girl."

"Very beautiful? Is she as beautiful as Chi Keke?" Yu Xiaomei muttered.

The art troupe came to the hospital for a consolation performance. Yu Xiaomei saw Chi Keke playing the violin. From then on, her horizons were broadened. She felt from the bottom of her heart that there was no one in the world more beautiful than Chi Keke.

"Keke is pretty, but her life story is even more tragic. You don't know that Chi Keke was taken away by mistake. The original child was also taken back. His name is Chi Liu..."

He Shuhui was tired of listening, so she looked away and saw Sun Xiaoxing, and quickly raised her hand to greet him: "Xiaoxing, this way!"

Sun Xiaoxing heard the voice and looked over. He turned his head and seemed to be talking to someone else, but that person's face could not be seen because of the pillar.

He Shuhui guessed that it should be the newcomer Shen Meng mentioned. Just as she was thinking about it, Sun Xiaoxing came over here, and the person behind the pillar also came into He Shuhui's sight.

She opened her eyes wide and was stunned.

After a while, she poked Yu Xiaomei who was still talking about Chi Keke, "The newcomer is really prettier than Chi Keke."

Yu Xiaomei looked up impatiently and saw Sun Xiaoxing, but her eyes were all on the girl behind her.

The girl's beautiful face was displayed in front of her without any concealment, her long and curly eyelashes blinked unconsciously, and Yu Xiaomei couldn't take her eyes away.

How can someone be so beautiful?

Ye Rou followed Sun Xiaoxing and sat down. Facing the two girls, she smiled and greeted them, "Hello, my name is Ye Rou."

The delicate girl sitting opposite was thin and fair, with a soft voice that was unique to the south, "He Shuhui."

After He Shuhui finished introducing, she turned around and saw Yu Xiaomei still staring at Ye Rou blankly, and said helplessly: "Her name is Yu Xiaomei."

Ye Rou smiled and nodded. She put down her lunch box, took out her chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised eggplant and put it in her mouth. As soon as she took a bite, she frowned slightly because it was too salty.

She tried to swallow it with all her might, and the salt grains made a crunching sound every time she chewed them.

Seeing that her face looked strange, Sun Xiaoxing asked her, "Did you chew on a piece of salt?"

Ye Rou swallowed hard and nodded with a bitter face.

Sun Xiaoxing and He Shuhui looked at each other and said with a smile: "This is the characteristic of our military district canteen, large quantities of salt to keep you full."

Ye Rou sighed. Her five senses were heightened and her taste buds were sharp. Eating this dish was a torture for her.

She asked quietly, "Can I bring my own food? Or do I have to eat in the cafeteria?"

"You can bring your own food." Yu Xiaomei finally came to her senses. Seeing Ye Rou asking, she immediately said, "Eating in the cafeteria is free. Although it tastes bad, it's a good deal to save a meal. After all, there's also a meat dish."

Yu Xiaomei's eyes fell on Ye Rou's lunch box. Seeing that she had almost filled half of the lunch box with stir-fried pork with dried tofu, her eyes widened, "Ye Rou, why are there so many meat dishes in your lunch box?"

Sun Xiaoxing smiled and said, "The auntie in the cafeteria served it to me. It seems that the aunties here are just like you, they also look at appearance."

Not only was Yu Xiaomei not angry, but she looked at Ye Rou and nodded seriously, as if she could understand the cafeteria auntie.

Ye Rou felt uncomfortable with her scorching gaze and took a mouthful of rice with chopsticks. The fried dried tofu and shredded pork were also very salty.

Yu Xiaomei's eyes were dazzled. She moved her gaze away from Ye Rou's face and fell on the ring finger of her left hand. There was a wide gold ring inlaid with sparkling diamonds and rubies. What was even more eye-catching was the particularly arrogant name on the ring: Jiang Chen.

She didn't think before she asked, "Ye Rou, are you married?"

Ye Rou looked at her in surprise, "How did you know?"

Sun Xiaoxing pointed at her ring and said with a smile, "It's hard not to guess."

Ye Rou stroked Jiang Chen's name on the ring, and a blush appeared on her fair face.

Among Sun Xiaoxing and the other two, only He Shuhui had a partner. Seeing Ye Rou's happy expression, she immediately understood.

Since they had just met, they didn't ask any more questions and tacitly changed the subject.

When the atmosphere was just right, the cafeteria door opened and four young men in white coats walked in from outside.

Ye Rou had met two of them before, one was Xiao Heng, and the other was Liu Yang, who was called to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department to read a self-criticism.

She had sharp ears and heard Liu Yang talking about the self-criticism he had read in the morning.

"This is all thanks to Aunt Yuan. If Xiao Heng hadn't called her over, I would have definitely read the review."

Xiao Heng said helplessly: "My mother is only the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department now. She can only help you this time, but it may be difficult in the future. You should restrain yourself, I think Dean Ying has set his sights on you."

Liu Yang said disapprovingly: "I just said it, I didn't really do anything naughty. Those women didn't complain. Dean Ying is just meddling in other people's business."

He then sighed, "But the girl that Dean Ying brought today is really a top-notch girl. She is so beautiful."

The man next to Liu Yang suddenly asked, "Is it that woman?"
