Cheng Shufen, Cheng Yu, Daya, Erya:
Cheng Shufen was confused, but very nervous. After the spring, her life was basically to help Qian** carry pig manure during the day, take care of the small sweet potato field in the middle, and stay in the house when she was free, teaching her three children to read away from people, and occasionally go to the back mountain to guide Cheng Yu.
Because of the hail in early spring, the commune has been very busy and has not had the time to pull her over for review recently.
Cheng Shufen was very satisfied with this kind of life and even felt it was better than her life in the capital.
Suddenly seeing an unfamiliar woman pushing the door and coming in crying, Cheng Shufen was so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands.
Cheng Yu was smart when the time came. He pushed the broth and the meat in the pot towards Daya. Daya was also afraid, but she still gathered her courage and put the pot on her side.
Cheng Yu was very alert: "Who are you?"
Everyone in the room, young and old, was staring at Wang Lingling.
Wang Lingling was also confused. She never thought that she would encounter such an occasion.
Originally, she thought that when she came, she would probably see Cheng Shufen lying on the bed unable to move and Cheng Yu crying.
But now everything in front of me has made me a joke.
Although Cheng Shufen was thin, her face was only pale, without the tiredness and paleness of a dying person.
Cheng Yu's cheeks were even plumper, how could he look like he was dying because he couldn't afford to eat
And the two little ones next to them, although they look familiar, who are they
Cheng Yu frowned, thinking about the series of events that happened when Wang Lingling came in just now.
"What are you doing here?"
Cheng Yu's alertness gave Wang Lingling a different feeling.
Wang Lingling murmured to herself: "How come you guys are still fine?"
It shouldn't be like this!
How come everything is messed up!
Cheng Yu got angry when he heard her words. Is this person sick
Before she could get angry, Qian** came in.
Qian** carried her little daughter in a sling on her back, holding a bowl of soup in her hands, and said, "Come on, open the door for me."
Now she and Cheng Shufen are getting close. Both women are in bad situations, are marginalized people, and raise pigs together. Their relationship can be said to be advanced to that of best friends. Cheng Yu can also help her take care of her daughter, so when the two sides have something good to say, they will get together to eat.
Erya looked left and right. She was young and didn't quite understand what she heard, so she ran to get the money.
Qian** met Wang Lingling as soon as he entered the door.
Qian**: “I’ll go!”
Seeing that there was someone in the room, Qian** subconsciously hid the things in his hand.
Wang Lingling was horrified: "You're not dead?!"
She finally remembered why she felt the two little ones looked familiar.
These are Tian Dazhu’s two daughters!
Speaking of Tian Dazhu, Wang Lingling was not close to this family, but there was a big incident in Tian Dazhu's family in his previous life, so Wang Lingling always had a deeper impression of these two little girls.
In her previous life, Qian** gave birth to her little daughter in winter. She was supposed to give birth in the spring, but she gave birth prematurely in winter. She tried to give birth at home for a day and a night but the baby didn't come out. She died, and neither the adult nor the child survived.
Why was Wang Lingling so impressed by this incident
Because of the two daughters left by Qian**, Tian Daya and Tian Erya.
After Qian** died, the two girls were under the care of Tian Dazhu. Tian Dazhu was a man of no integrity. The children were controlled by his mother and his younger siblings, and were not given food or water but were forced to work.
Later, after working at home for a few years, Daya was married to a cripple by Tian Dazhu's mother.
As Erya grew up, she became more and more beautiful. Tian Dazhu's mother wanted to get a good price for her granddaughter, and she said that the family she sold her to was worse than Daya. Tian Dazhu's mother was determined to sell Erya deep in the mountains, and she only looked for a family where several brothers could only marry one wife.
Erya was smarter than Daya. She ran away directly and before running away, she put rat poison in Tian Dazhu's entire family.
However, the rat poison Erya used was fake and did not kill anyone.
But after this incident, Tian Dazhu's mother was furious. She kept saying that Tian Dazhu's child was a loser and worthless, and she cursed at everyone she met. Tian Erzhu even directly cut off contact with Tian Dazhu, and the two brothers never had any contact with each other until they died.
Wang Lingling came back to her senses from her memories and looked at Qian**'s loud voice. How could it sound like she had died of childbirth complications
Wang Lingling couldn't help but panic. It was fine when she was not at her mother's house before, but when she came back this time, she found that everything in her impression was completely different!
Cheng Shufen is not dead, Qian** is not dead, this shouldn’t be right!
Qian** was furious. She recognized Wang Lingling and was about to sigh why Wang Lingling looked so haggard. But Wang Lingling asked her if she was dead or not...
"Did you swallow feces? Can you speak?"
Qian** dropped his soup bowl and started to hit Wang Lingling.
Wang Lingling was unable to dodge and was slapped in the face, which landed right on the mark of Old Lady Xu's slap.
Qian** became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it. Her life was pretty good now, and even the weakness she suffered from childbirth was slowly making up for it. Yet this guy came up and started cursing her!
Wang Lingling was beaten so badly that she ran away with her head in her hands, not even bothering to pick up her dropped bag.
Qian** took off his shoes and chased her to beat her: "Get lost! Why don't you go be your stepmother? Why are you running in front of me and talking nonsense? If you do it again, I will beat you up!"
Qian**'s beating is different from Old Lady Xu's. After all, Old Lady Xu is old and doesn't have the energy to beat people. Qian** has been in good shape recently, so when he beats people, he doesn't care where they are.
Wang Lingling was beaten so hard that the pain was unbearable.
But her heart hurts even more!
Cheng Shufen is not dead, but there is no hope for the gold ring.
The fact that Qian** is not dead means that things in his previous life have changed.
Wang Lingling couldn't stay any longer. With her swollen cheeks and terrified heart, she took her two children and went home.
She needs to go back and think carefully about why all this happened!
Why was everything different when she lived her life again!
After driving Wang Lingling away, Qian** spat and went back into the house.
Cheng Shufen was a little nervous: "Who is she? **, if you beat her up, won't she come to cause trouble again?"
Qian** said with disdain: "She? She is Wang Ying's cousin, the second daughter of Wang Ying's uncle. She is mentally ill, you don't have to worry."
Qian** is now quite barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes: "She has been married to another brigade a long time ago. Who knows what illness has caused her to come and cause trouble today. If she comes again, you can find me and I will beat her up."
Qian** knew that Wang Lingling had married an army officer, but so what? She was a widow with three daughters anyway, so if the other party had the guts, they could come after her.
Cheng Shufen sighed: "Alas, I'm just afraid of getting you and Wang Ying into trouble..."
Qian** put the soup on the table and said with a hearty smile: "Why should we get involved? We haven't done anything bad. I'm not afraid of that!"
Although her life felt much better after divorcing Tian Dazhu, Qian** also knew that her reputation in the brigade was already ruined.
Divorce is always unpleasant to hear these days, especially since she gave birth to three daughters in a row. In the eyes of most people, she has done a bad job. But no matter how bad it is, it should be that Tian Dazhu doesn't want her.
But she was the one who initiated the divorce, which always made people feel that she was not doing her duty and was not a good wife.
There are also those who gloat over her misfortune, thinking that she will soon have trouble living with three daughters. How can a family live without a man
Qian** used to feel that way, but ever since she got divorced and moved back to raise pigs, the people she interacted with most were no longer the gossipy women in the brigade, but Cheng Shufen, Cheng Yu, and Wang Ying.
As time went by, Qian**'s thinking slowly changed.
Now, Qian** felt uncomfortable talking with those people. She wanted to talk to them about the secrets of raising pigs, farming, how her daughter learned a few words today, and the magical medicinal herbs in the mountains that Cheng Yu mentioned.
Her life is so much better than before!
But others would look at her with pity and incomprehension, as if she was just forcing herself when she said she was living a good life.
Qian** put the cabbage and shrimp soup in the middle and ate a steamed bun with the remaining broth. She had money in her hand, but it was not enough to build a house. Her premature little daughter and the other two daughters were malnourished. Qian** simply gritted her teeth and asked Wang Ying to buy some nutritious food.
Wang Ying asked Xu Shuang to buy these dried shrimps, along with some brown sugar.
When cooking every day, Qian** puts some dried shrimps in the food. Wang Ying said that this can supplement calcium.
I also put a little brown sugar in a pot every day and give it to the children. It tastes sweet and is also good for the body.
The shrimp and cabbage soup tastes sweet and fresh, and the broth is also tasty when dipped into the steamed corn bread. Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
The news that Wang Lingling left again after returning caused heated discussions throughout the brigade, but within a few days other gossip dominated everyone's topic again, and this topic was about the educated youth.
It has to be said that after the educated youth moved into the homes of their fellow villagers, there were melons everywhere, forming a field of melons.
The old educated youth are okay, they are all relatively honest, but the new educated youth are a real headache.
Wu Guihua complained to Wang Ying: "I thought I was lucky. The two young women who moved in were both well-mannered and could take care of my apricot blossoms."
Tian Xinghua was one of the few girls in the brigade who was still in school. Wu Guihua sent her daughter to middle school, which was already an anomaly in the brigade. But Wu Guihua always felt that girls should study, and if they studied more, like Wang Ying, their future would be easier.
Wu Guihua has two sons and one daughter, and she treats them equally. Both sons graduated from junior high school. The older one found a temporary job in the town, and the younger one is now working on the farm. However, the accountant of the brigade is old, and the younger one is smart and always follows the accountant. The accountant is also optimistic about this young man.
Tian Xinghua has now graduated from junior high school. She did not continue to high school because the burden was too heavy.
Wu Guihua thought that the educated youths all came from big cities and could tell Xinghua about the experiences of big cities. Girls should have some experience, otherwise they would be cheated when they go out.
But who would have thought that although Wu Guihua had good intentions, the educated youth who moved in made her angry.
Wu Guihua complained bitterly: "Yang Hong is okay, she is the leader of the educated youth. As for Bai Ling, I am really convinced."
"He didn't make his quilt in the morning, pushed the bowl away after eating, and said he couldn't stand it after working for a few minutes..."
"That's enough, but do you know what she said to my daughter Xinghua a few days ago?"
Wu Guihua was very glad that she had kept a close eye on Bai Ling, so she discovered Bai Ling's hypocrisy and selfishness so early on.
"She told Xinghua that girls can't rely on themselves, and they still need to find a good man."
Wu Guihua was so angry that she almost died: "She's from a big city! She's worse than a country woman like me!"
Wu Guihua sent her daughter to school, but she didn't agree with the old ways. Although it is important to marry a man in the countryside, a girl must be able to control herself. It doesn't mean to control a man, but she must have some ability to live a good life.
Wu Guihua always uses Wang Ying as an example when educating her daughter. Now, someone who is completely the opposite comes out of nowhere. What the hell is this person telling her daughter
"I told her that she was crying out of grievance. Jiang Lei saw her crying, so he came to me and said a lot of bullshit. He said that if it really didn't work, he asked me not to bully Bai Ling, and he was willing to trade places with Bai Ling."
Wu Guihua: "I have a girl in my family, and I let a male educated youth live with me?!"
Wu Guihua said unhappily, "I am now looking forward to repairing the youth settlement as soon as possible so that these youth can return and live there as soon as possible."
Wang Ying was grinding herbs with a small grinding wheel nearby, and Wen Yan just smiled.
Wu Guihua said enviously, "Your mother-in-law is smart. She saw the situation clearly a long time ago and left one room in the house for the educated youth, and lived there herself. How great is that? Out of sight, out of mind. By the way, how are the two educated youth assigned to your place?"
Wang Ying: "You mean Jiang Li and Zhang Ping? They're fine."
Zhang Ping came to the countryside with money in her hand, and Jiang Li was an honest woman, so the two of them got along well. Although Zhang Ping was a bit spoiled, Jiang Li could tolerate her.
"My mother-in-law went to see him many times and he was fine."
Old Mrs. Xu's house is an old one, and it was built by her husband. She attaches great importance to the house and always goes to check on it from time to time, for fear that the young girls will get angry and damage the furniture in the house again.
Wu Guihua felt bad when she thought about Bai Ling, but she felt a bit amused when she mentioned the other educated youth.
"Hey, have you heard? The accountant wants to tell his niece about Yu Pengcheng."
Wang Ying really didn't know about this, so she stopped grinding the medicine and asked, "What do you mean? Yu Pengcheng is willing to stay in the countryside?"
The educated youth were all looking forward to going back. Especially the new educated youth, who had just arrived when the disaster happened, it would be strange if they didn’t want to leave!
Especially Yu Pengcheng, the one with the watch on his wrist, his family has some wealth, maybe they can bring him back in a few years. Even if they don't bring him back, he doesn't have to get married and stay in the countryside.
Wu Guihua looked gossipy: "I don't know what Yu Pengcheng was thinking, but he didn't refuse. The accountant thought it was a good idea, and he's been looking for an opportunity to invite his niece to his home these days..."
"And that guy, a new educated youth, had a fight with an older educated youth. They lived together, but the old educated youth didn't like to wash his feet..."
"And that guy went to the captain and said that someone had falsely reported his food rations, and he wanted to move in with someone else..."
…
Country people have no entertainment activities and rarely encounter unusual things in their daily lives, so the stories of the educated youth are talked about over and over again.
The topic among the educated youths lasted for nearly half a month, until the day when Wang Ying had already started preparing for the exam.
Early in the morning, Xu Shuang made breakfast for Wang Ying, cleaned the house, squeezed toothpaste, and placed the clothes Wang Ying was going to wear at the bedside.
Wang Ying woke up in a daze, wondering why Xu Shuang didn't go to work.
Xu Shuang: "Did you forget? You have an exam today."
The training of the barefoot doctors was extended for a period of time. It was not until yesterday that Dr. Wei informed Wang Ying that the assessment of the four of them would begin today.
Wang Ying looked at her pocket watch and quickly stood up: "It's so late, why didn't you call me!"
Xu Shuang: "It's not too late, I'll take you there later."
Wang Ying: "What about the breakfast at your hotel?"
Xu Shuang: "Just make steamed buns, dumplings and porridge, Xie Yuejin can do it."
Wang Ying tied her hair up, quickly washed up and started eating breakfast.
The fermented dough is filled with spicy tofu. The fragrant and spicy taste is wrapped in the soft dough. The soft texture immediately activates the morning taste buds. The stir-fried green vegetables are made with a little lard, which smells fragrant.
I made a rare luxury of rice porridge with red peanuts in it. There was also a steamed egg custard on the side, with some dried shrimps sprinkled on top of the smooth and tender egg custard.
A breakfast that was particularly satisfying.
Xu Shuang: "I guess it will be the afternoon before you finish the exam. I heard that the butcher shop has beef today. I'll go buy some and we can eat it this afternoon."
Wang Ying is sure to pass the exam, but Xu Shuang still thinks it is a big deal and needs to be celebrated.
Wang Ying: "Beef? The butcher shop still has beef?"
Xu Shuang: "A cow from a brigade fell and died. We agreed to take it to the butcher shop today."
Wang Ying immediately understood that only cows that died accidentally would be sold, but not on ordinary days.
“Buy more.”
It was a rare opportunity to eat beef, so Wang Ying felt that she should try a few more dishes.
Now that the temperature has risen, there are more varieties of vegetables. The earliest tomatoes can be eaten, and peppers are planted in rows.
Boiled beef, tomato brisket, beef meatball soup…
Wang Ying couldn't help swallowing her saliva: "I will definitely pass!"
Xu Shuang sent Wang Ying to take the exam, and Wang Ying felt strange when she sat down.
Because there are actually five people taking the exam today.
Zhaodi, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, was sitting quietly in the room, holding the pencil head given by Wang Ying in her hand.
Sun Ertao had a gloomy face. She was not worried that Zhaodi would score better than her, she just felt uncomfortable.
Zhaodi had a lot of trouble a few days ago, and it was obvious that she looked down on the job of barefoot doctor. Now she comes again, isn't she just trying to get rid of Sun Ertao's mentality even if she herself is not having a good life
The other two girls in the room were also on edge, and at this point it all depended on who would be chosen.
Wang Ying didn't care. She leisurely ate a small meat snack made by Xu Shuang and drank a few sips of water leisurely.
Doctor Wei came in and handed out a few pieces of white paper with nothing on them.
"Let's start the test now. I'll say what you say and you'll write."
Doctor Wei first asked about the corresponding medicines for certain diseases, then asked about the properties of several medicines, and finally asked about several prescriptions. Finally, he asked about the emergency treatment methods.
After the written test, there is a practical operation.
Doctor Wei took the man to the infirmary and found a few patients with broken skin to treat.
They were just minor injuries. Wang Ying completed the task neatly. The others stumbled, but they were fine. Only Zhao Di hadn't come for so long that she didn't know what she had said, and her actions were crooked.
Doctor Wei already had an idea in mind and took the few people back to the big room.
Soon another doctor came and announced that Wang Ying and Sun Ertao became barefoot doctors, and the others were eliminated.
Wang Ying expected this and just smiled.
Sun Ertao was overwhelmed by the huge surprise and was so happy that he didn't know what to do.
The other two who fought to the end, without either being chosen, no longer cared about their previous targeting of each other, and went up to surround the doctor, crying and asking questions.
They delayed for so long and didn't even do much housework, and this is the result
They don't accept it!
Wang Ying and Sun Ertao naturally left happily. Zhaodi curled her lips and did not go up to ask for explanation. Who told her not to come later
She turned around indifferently and left earlier than Wang Ying and Sun Ertao.
Sun Ertao winked at Wang Ying: "Look at her!"
Wang Ying: "She should know that she can't pass."
You can tell at first glance that he doesn't care.
Sun Ertao: "Of course she is. She is married in town now."
Wang Ying: "So fast? How long has it been?"
Sun Ertao had an indescribable expression on his face: "Her situation is quite complicated..."
Sun Ertao told what he knew about Zhaodi. In short, the man Zhaodi was looking for was originally a widower with a son. But she didn't know whether she had a good or bad fate. The man was involved in the tomb-robbing case some time ago and was sentenced to many years.
Sun Ertao: "We all thought that this thing was going to fail, but Zhaodi was so cruel. She went to visit the man directly and said that she still wanted to get married and would let him take care of the children after marriage."
Wang Ying: "… The other party can't agree, right? He's already in there, and he's entrusted all his family business and children to Zhaodi. Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to keep anything?"
Sun Ertao: "Who knows what Zhaodi said, but she convinced the man. Now Zhaodi is married to him, with a baby boy, no job and no income, and she doesn't work in the fields to earn work points. I don't know what she wants."
Wang Ying was amazed. If Zhaodi had not behaved normally, she would have really suspected that Zhaodi was also a reborn person like Wang Lingling.
Sun Ertao: "Never mind her, I passed! I'm going home to tell my mom the good news!"
Sun Ertao and Wang Ying are now much closer. Sun Ertao: "If I'm unsure later, can I come and ask you?"
Wang Ying: “Sure.”
Anyway, the two sides are close.
When Wang Ying returned home, Xu Shuang had already bought the beef, a large piece of blood-red beef.
Wang Ying was very excited: "Let's make tomato beef brisket, braised beef in soy sauce, and stew potatoes and beef together to make potato and beef rice bowl!"
There is nothing happier than eating!
Wang Ying was feeling relaxed and comfortable, but Wang Lingling was in a dilemma.
After she went back, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She felt that something was not normal on her mother's side. She asked someone and found out whether Qian ** was rescued by Wang Ying or whether Wang Ying found the job for him.
Cheng Shufen is also under the care of Wang Ying, so she is a good person.
So a guess emerged in Wang Lingling's mind.
If I can be reborn, then is Wang Ying also reborn
Wang Lingling was so anxious that she didn't even want to go to the Seventh Brigade anymore.
When she saw Wang Ying's face, she couldn't help but feel flustered.
Wang Lingling thought, no matter whether Wang Ying was reborn or not, she was married to Zhao Jun after all, and everything was a foregone conclusion.
As long as she stays away from him, can't she still live her life normally
The most urgent task is to find someone to stockpile food together.
Wang Lingling knew very well that her capital was not enough and she had to find a partner.
The Zhao family is not good enough, and my mother’s family has all dispersed.
She had only one final choice.
Wang Pingping.
