Traditional Chinese Medicine: Back to the years when educated youths went to the countryside

Chapter 15 Things that even dogs won’t chew

"Wang Chengzhou, I want to eat meat!"

Si Ya gritted her teeth and said in a hateful voice.

This girl was really greedy. After finishing speaking, she looked at him eagerly.

It's both coquettish and cute.

"What do we need those big bones for?"

Wang Honghe stared at him. After two first-aid incidents, he felt that sometimes his unsatisfactory son still had to listen to what he said.

Although this younger son is lazy, his brain is very good.

Otherwise, how can you learn the skill of acupuncture with just a few shabby books?

Didn’t you see that Dr. Chen, a dignified eldest son who is the director of the county hospital, has no books, but is still a half-baked product?
"Dad, we'll talk about this when we get back." Wang Chengzhou lowered his voice, "You just need to listen to me, give up the lottery, and exchange the two baskets of cow bones."

Wang Honghe smacked his lips and said nothing for a long time.

"Brother, what the hell are you doing?" Si Yahu's big eyes flashed. She originally thought Wang Chengzhou was teasing her, but looking at his serious look, it didn't look like that. "But...but, I really want to eat meat." ah."

"Go." Wang Chengzhou pressed her forehead, pushed her away, and said with a smile: "It's just a few taels of meat, do you still want to be full? Remember, sometimes you have to give up to get something."

Wang Aiduo nodded as if understanding, but still pouted.

Wang Honghe slapped his knees, said nothing more, stood up and walked towards the village chief Wang Tielin.

At this time, the drawing of lots had already begun.

Uncle Wu happened to be in front of him, and he fished everything out of the water. He was so beautiful that the wrinkles on his face came out.

"Hey, Wuhe, I'll let you catch it. Six pounds of beef intestines are enough to satisfy your appetite."

"Hey, let's not think too much. It's enough if we can touch the water. There are many children in the house. If we touch the beef, we won't be able to spread them out."

"Looking at all your searching, you can't tell the difference between the bad and the bad! There is a small share of 'beef', so naturally it has the advantage of being small. That's serious meat, a bunch of old haters."

Wang Zhiguo appeared out of nowhere and stuck his head in to interject.

"Zhiguo, can we compete with you? Don't talk about beef, it's fine if you kill the cow, can we?"

Someone made a strange remark, which made everyone laugh.

"Don't tell me, if it weren't for Zhiguo, we wouldn't be able to eat this meaty food."

"According to your words, we still have to thank him?"

"That's not!"

One sentence actually attracted a lot of flatterers.

Wang Zhiguo was still a little cowed at first, but when he heard so many people flattering him, he immediately became proud again, squinting his face, as if he had accomplished something.

"What, you want beef bones?"

At this moment, Wang Tielin's voice rang out, drowning out the chaotic discussion.

Seeing everyone looking over, Wang Honghe felt a little embarrassed, "Yes... yes."

"What do you want that thing for? It's something that even dogs can't chew." Wang Tielin became more and more surprised, looking at him up and down, "Honghe, you have to think clearly."

"Think it through, think it through." Wang Honghe kept nodding, looking for reasons to convince himself, "As a tough guy, there are always bits on the bones. If you cook them and chew them, you can satisfy your cravings. .”

Everyone who was originally quiet suddenly laughed.

Many people joked:

"Honghe, those of us who are looking forward to 'going into the water' are despicable enough. I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless, chewing on the bones!"

"Oh, Honghe, you don't have many people in your family, why bother? Bring back a basket of cow bones and let people see the joke."

"Honghe, are you stupid? Don't ask for the bones. They are all lost things. What do you want them for?"

Uncle Wu happened to come back with a bunch of buffalo intestines. When he heard this, he stamped his feet and followed suit.

The sweat on Wang Honghe's face was almost falling.

After living for more than 40 years, this is the first time that I cannot get off stage in front of so many people.

He thought to himself: They are all Chengzhou’s grandson.If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have listened to him!

However, now that things have come to a point, all we can do is bite the bullet and hold on.Carrying two baskets of raw cattle bones, with drooped eyelids, he just pretended that others couldn't see him and walked out in one breath.

Wang Aiduo also felt embarrassed and followed slowly, wanting to stay away from his father.

Wang Chengzhou blinked and glanced into the brigade courtyard.

Suddenly he said: "Village chief, isn't this right?"

"What's wrong?"

Wang Tielin was feeling strange. Hearing this, he raised his eyelids and glanced at him.

"Where's the cow tail?"

"You want cow tail too?"

"That's right, isn't a cow's tail a bone?"

"Cattle……"

Wang Tielin was confused for a moment, wondering whether the cow's tail was considered a bone in the cow's body.

Everyone who was queuing up to draw lots was very happy when they heard this.Many people pointed at him and introduced:

"Did you see that? This is the second son of Wang Honghe's family just now."

"The one who took away two baskets of bones? What happened to his son?"

"It's okay, he just likes to be idle. He spends all day thinking about ideas, reading idle books, and I heard he even hooked up with a new female educated youth. He's not a good guy."

Today, when the meat was being distributed, people from the three villages were present, and there were a lot of meat dishes.

Wang Chengzhou was furious when he heard someone muttering about him. When he took a quick look, he saw that they were some old ladies he didn't recognize.

Probably from the next village.

Huh, maybe I haven’t heard of my fame in the past two days!

Wang Chengzhou comforted himself and was too lazy to pay attention to them.

However, Xu Xiaozhi's face looked ugly.

At that time, girls were very concerned about their reputation. If they were gossiped about, they would most likely not be able to get married in the future.

Moreover, educated youth are originally immigrants and are often excluded by local people.

The situation of female educated youths is even more embarrassing. If their bad reputation spreads, they may attract some unscrupulous things.

It's dangerous to go out at night.

However, Xu Xiaozhi's temperament is a bit weak, and she can't argue with people in the street.

I can only warn myself silently: stay away from Wang Chengzhou.

Although this is unfair to him, reputation is more important to him.

After discussion by the leadership team, the final judgment will be made by professionals.

Health worker Chen coughed and said loudly: "Strictly speaking, ox tails are the brittle bones of cows. They should be included in the ranks of cow bones. It should be distributed to Wang Honghe's family."

Wang Chengzhou grinned and nodded at him.

This guy is indeed very discerning. If you really get a chance, just give him a few pointers.

When he returned home, Wang Honghe was sitting on the threshold breathing heavily.

I was so tired that I was sweating all over my forehead.

The two baskets of cow bones weighed over a hundred kilograms. Fortunately, he was doing farm work, so a city dweller might not be able to lift them.

His mother, Li Yuzhu, was waiting for him with a dark face.

Seeing that he was holding an ox tail in his hand, he felt a little calmer and said:

"San'er, are you bringing back so many beef bones to make soup?"

"But this unborn stubble is cleaner than a dog's gnawing. What can you do with it?"

"Hey, I shouldn't have let you follow me and cause trouble!"
