Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 840: Chapter 840 Burned Hand

”It’s fine, the reason doesn’t matter anymore. What’s important now is your hand,” An Hao said to Xin Ni. ”Run it under the tap for half an hour, then go to the medical office.”

Looking at the time, Li Zecheng said, ”I’m afraid there won’t be anyone at the medical office at this hour. Little sister, aren’t you a doctor? Couldn’t you treat her?”

”Actually, these blisters would be better if they were punctured. But I don’t have any medication here, and if they get infected after being punctured, it would be more troublesome. Otherwise, just bear with it for tonight, and don’t pop them. Go to the medical office first thing tomorrow morning.”

Hearing she had to endure until the next morning made Xin Ni almost frantic: ”What? How am I supposed to sleep tonight?”

”Your hand is burned like this, and you’re still thinking of sleeping? Just endure it!” Zhang Guifang said.

Xin Ni considered herself unlucky, as this woman was simply her bane. Since the first time she met her, there hadn’t been a single day where Xin Ni hadn’t been injured.

”Alright then, if that’s the case, let’s listen to your sister-in-law An Hao,” Li Zecheng said.

Xin Ni nodded with tears in her eyes.

”Let’s all have dinner then. Let Xin Ni continue running water over her hand here. Once she’s fine, she can come over to eat. Everyone else, let’s sit down,” Zhang Guifang called everyone to the living room to start serving dinner.

While washing his hands, Qin Jian quietly pulled An Hao aside to ask her, ”How about you? Did you get hurt just now?”

”Not at all, don’t worry!” Dealing with people of Xin Ni’s caliber, An Hao had never felt intimidated.

The truly formidable opponent was a woman like Cheng Yu.

That was what really gave An Hao a headache.

Seeing his wife unharmed, Qin Jian felt relieved.

After washing their hands, the two returned to the dining table.

Zhang Guifang warmly called out to them, ”Today, brother, you and your big brother Li will drink a couple of glasses, and I’ll join An Hao in eating the dishes. Sister-in-law, don’t be shy on your first meal with us, eat your fill.”

”Don’t worry, sister-in-law,” Qin Jian said with a smile. ”I’ll drink with your brother, and you just take good care of An Hao.”

”Look at that, and then look at you,” Zhang Guifang glared at Li Zecheng, ”Learn a bit from him in the future. Shouldn’t a wife be cherished like this?”

”Sure, I’ll listen to you,” Li Zecheng said with a laugh.

While the dining table was lively with toasting and laughter, Xin Ni was fuming with rage in the kitchen.

She had been left there, ignored by everyone.

After staying alone in the kitchen for quite some time and feeling the pain subside a bit, she finally went to the living room.

Most of the food on the table had been eaten, and what was left was almost cold.

Xin Ni, with her right hand burned, could only clumsily use her left hand to pick up food with chopsticks.

The awkward movements were unsightly, and she couldn’t even get the food into her mouth.

Unable to stand it anymore, Li Zecheng said to Xin Ni, ”If it’s too hard, just wait a bit and move on to the dumplings, you can at least use a fork with those.”

Xin Ni nodded helplessly, only able to watch the table full of delicious food unable to eat it.

She sat there, eyes fixed on the table, while listening to the others drinking and chatting away.

”Brother Qin Jian, I heard today that a particularly beautiful girl came to your house. Who is that person? Is she a relative of yours? Can you tell me about her?” Li Zecheng said.

The beautiful girl Li Zecheng mentioned was Cheng Yu.

An Hao had just forgotten about that matter, but now Li Zecheng brought it up again.
