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

Chapter 349: Whoever cares will marry

That night, Guo Mingyue left.

Wang Chengzhou was really helpless towards her.It was the dry season, the Baihe River was shallow, and there was too much silt in the river, making it inconvenient for boating. She had to walk twenty miles around every time, which was very hard.However, listening to what she just said, she didn't seem tired, but wanted to study medicine with her wholeheartedly.

For such a sincere girl, Wang Chengzhou loved her from the bottom of his heart and wanted to provide her with more conveniences or simply let her stay overnight so that she would not have to travel back and forth in the winter.

However, Mrs. Guo Chen has a very tough attitude and does not allow her daughter to have too much contact with him.If he had left her to sleep at home, this forty-year-old widow would be furious.

Sure enough, it was as he expected.

It wasn't until the sky completely darkened that Guo Mingyue returned home covered in sweat.As a result, he was scolded by his own mother when he came up.

Especially when she took out the five yuan, Mrs. Guo Chen was so angry that she almost jumped. In anger, she insisted on sending it back to Wang Chengzhou late at night.

"Mom, I don't want you to go digging for anything, but our family is so poor that we don't even have enough money to eat salt. He is my master. What should I do if I borrow some money from him?"

Guo Mingyue was angry and stood there talking back.

"Send it back! Are you stupid?"

Mrs. Guo Chen glared and gnashed her teeth and cursed, "The taker is short-handed and the cannibal is soft-spoken. It's easy to borrow money, but what will you pay back in the future?"

"There is no such thing as a good thing in a man! Why would he be so nice to you without asking for anything? Is five yuan a small amount of money? Just give it to you?"

"I'm going to dig this river, not you, so you don't have to worry about it! I spend all my time with that Wang Chengzhou. A big girl is not afraid of being laughed at. If your reputation is ruined, I'll see how you can marry well in the future. People! You can send this money back to me tomorrow, do you know?"

"If you don't want to marry, you won't marry. If you don't care, you will marry!"

Guo Mingyue was really angry. He didn't expect that she was so ignorant of good people and even slandered her master.He immediately returned to his room and slammed the door.

"you you……"

Mrs. Guo Chen stood in the yard, her fingers trembling and her chest hurt with anger.

At the same time, Wang Chengzhou had dinner and was discussing with his family about going to the mountains to collect herbs tomorrow. "Smart Soup" has already opened up the market, and now is the time to strike while the iron is hot. Moreover, Zhang Quanfa, the second brother-in-law, has already promised to give him a batch of goods. Calculating, the quantity needed will definitely be large.

Therefore, it is certainly not enough on his own.

Even if Xu Xiaozhi follows him, it won't work.First of all, her physical strength was really poor. If she ran in the mountains for a whole day, she would be exhausted and could not carry many medicinal materials.Secondly... this girl always has evil intentions. When she goes to the mountains to let herself go, Wang Chengzhou is really afraid that he won't be able to resist and make another mistake.

Therefore, Wang Chengzhou felt that it was better to act alone with her as little as possible.

"We will go into the mountains tomorrow. There are only two herbs that need to be collected. One is Fushen and the other is Acorus. I will tell you their growth environment and identification method in detail."

After dinner, the whole family sat together and listened carefully to Wang Chengzhou's story.

The main people entering the mountain tomorrow are Wang Honghe, Li Yuzhu, and Wang Nanzhou.Wang Aiduo wanted to go more than anyone else. He was so anxious that he sat on the small bench, groaning and twisting his body like a maggot.However, no matter how coquettish she acted, Wang Chengzhou refused to agree.

Wang Caiyun covered her mouth and chuckled. If she hadn't been pregnant, she would actually be a very good candidate.

"San'er, the Poria Goddess you mentioned actually grows underground? And it's about the same size as a watermelon? In the pine forests in the back mountains?"

Wang Nanzhou stared, as if listening to some magical story.

"Stone calamus mostly grows near rocks near water."

Li Yuzhu also muttered a sentence, patted his knees and said with a smile: "San'er, don't worry! When we were young, your father and I ran around in the mountains just as much as you and that girl Xiaozhi! Uh... No, it's No less than you and Hongying running in the mountains!" Comrade Lao Li said the wrong thing, and he was so nervous that sweat almost broke out on his forehead. He quickly went back to make up for it, "Hongying, look at my memory. My son said, thanks to you running around in the mountains all day long in the summer, you were able to dig out so many polygala, now can you make a lot of money from it?"

"In our family, you are the one who deserves the most credit!"

"Come on, darling, let Mom take a look. Your little cotton-padded jacket is a bit thin. We get up so early every day and go to the commune to work, so we have to wear thicker clothes. San'er, next time you go to the commune to pull a few feet of fabric, Mom will give it to you with your own hands. Make a floral cotton-padded jacket and wear it."

"Mom, don't...use..."

Luan Hongying lowered her head timidly. It was the first time that her future mother-in-law was so close to her, and her nervous little face turned red.The unhappiness just now was gone.

Wang Chengzhou nodded quickly and grinned stupidly.

Wang Aiduo had already rolled his eyes with envy and contempt.

I envy my sister Hongying for wearing a flowery cotton-padded jacket before the end of the year; I despise my mother Li Yuzhu for being able to make the little girl happy even more than my play-minded third brother.

"Wang Xiucai, hurry up, what are you doing at home?"

Unexpectedly, while he was talking, Xu Xiaozhi's clear voice sounded outside.It seemed that she was not the only one outside the gate. From the noise, it seemed that Zhao Yu, Diao Qingsong, Xu Wannian and Yu Hua were all there.

"hurry up?"

Wang Chengzhou was stunned for a moment and felt a little confused. He couldn't help but asked loudly, "What are you doing?"

As soon as the chatter and laughter outside stopped, the voices of several other educated youths began to criticize:
"Old Wang, what are you talking about? Of course you are going to study in the evening!"

"That's it, Wang Xiucai, are you confused? You gave everyone a good idea at the conference today, and since time is so tight now, of course you should seize the time to study in the brigade courtyard!"

"Lao Wang, you're going to college! Why do you seem to never take such an important thing to your heart?"

Going to college...

Wang Chengzhou was completely embarrassed.He really has never thought about going to college, so why would he care about it?
However, when Wang Honghe and Li Yuzhu heard this, they immediately panicked and quickly stood up to pack his things, "San'er, why did we forget this? Go and study!"

"By the way, have you prepared your textbooks, paper and pen?"

"It's all trivial to make money by collecting herbs. It's best if you don't go to the mountains to collect herbs tomorrow, so I can prepare for the college entrance examination with peace of mind!"

Wang Chengzhou's claws were completely paralyzed... The corner of his eye swept over Luan Hongying, and he saw her lowered eyebrows and curled eyelashes, as if she hadn't heard anything.But he knew that this simple-minded Nizi must be angry, but she just saved him face in front of her family and didn't show it.

After all, Wang Chengzhou had personally promised her that evening that no dog would go to college!At that time, Luan Hongying was still tampering with others, so Luan Hongying must have believed him.

But now, the whole family is encouraging him to go to college, and his love rival Xu Xiaozhi came to call him. How could the little girl not have any ideas in her heart?
The calmness deliberately pretended is just a precursor to the coming storm.

It's over, I have to coax again...

Wang Chengzhou had no choice but to stand up bravely. In front of his eager parents, he did not dare to say anything about going to college only as a dog.Otherwise, he will be hunted down by the two elders all over the street.

At the moment, I have no choice but to take it one step at a time and deal with it first!
Several educated youths looked very happy when they saw him coming out.

The sky in late autumn was completely dark, there was no starlight, the surroundings looked dark, and there was thick night everywhere.Occasionally, a gust of cold wind would blow from the low courtyard wall or the deep alley, making people shrink their necks.

But the fire in their hearts made them full of hope for the future. It seemed that even this dark and cold night had become more meaningful, and they were hanging out with friends, just like they used to when they were in school.

Especially Xu Xiaozhi, this girl looked particularly happy. She jumped up and down while walking, and would circle around Wang Chengzhou from time to time, making several educated youths purse their lips and snicker.

With the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination, this flower-like educated youth girl became less and less able to hide her love for Health Nurse Wang.

When we arrived at the brigade courtyard and saw the bright lights in the room, everyone was even happier.

Several educated youths from Shuixi Village arrived earlier than them and had already started clearing away the chairs and benches.Pan Feiyan and Qin Lang were holding a piece of torn plastic cloth, bickering and reinforcing the window.

Thinking about the coming severe winter, everyone tried their best to clean up this slightly dilapidated house and make it as warm as possible.

After all, this temporary classroom holds their dreams.

After a while, everyone arrived.

However, after checking the name list, I discovered that sisters Jian Mo and Jian Li were missing.After questioning, I found out that these two girls said they were afraid of the cold, so they actually stayed home and studied by themselves with kerosene lamps on.

Everyone couldn't help but shake their heads. They felt that these two eldest ladies were so delicate. How could they get into college if they couldn't even bear this little hardship?
Hearing that everyone was counting them down, Han Xuenong and Li Jigong couldn't hold it in anymore, and finally revealed the truth, saying that they had a conflict with Wang Chengzhou and were angry that he didn't sell them "smart soup".

Although both of them are young ladies from well-to-do families, they are never afraid of hardship.When they were pulling weeds in the field, the sisters had blisters on the soles of their feet. They were so painful that they cried while eating, but they never really missed a day of work.

Everyone was surprised and couldn't help looking over with a slight reproach.

The fact is indeed as these two people said. Although sisters Jian Mo and Jian Li are unruly, they are not unreasonable. Moreover, they are young, so everyone treats them as children and takes good care of them on weekdays.

I didn't expect him to be such a beast, even bullying his two little sisters.

Wang Chengzhou looked innocent and quickly explained, so that everyone knew the whole story.I couldn't help but feel speechless, and wanted to laugh very much.

"I have already said that I have collected medicinal materials from the mountains in the past two days and sent them to them immediately, but they just don't think I am a friend enough. What can I do? I, Wang Chengzhou, am nineteen years old and have not yet given birth. He knows how to coax children!"

"Okay, Lao Wang, your mouth is really damaging!"

Yu Hua rolled his eyes angrily.

Everyone burst into laughter.
