The two new recruits to the Agricultural Machinery Station were one of them, Yan Qing's cousin Li Yanwen, and the other, recommended by the stationmaster, named Zheng Hongxing. I'm related to the webmaster, so my temper is a bit off-kilter, but I'm not a bad person and it's easy to get along with me.
Both of them were handed over to Yan Qing by Master Wang.
Because he found that Yan Qing not only had first-class skills, but also taught things very well. The content he explained was simple and easy to understand, and the effect was much better than what he taught!
Yan Qing was teaching two newcomers and making up lessons for Wang Hongjun at the same time. The originally leisurely days became busy.
As the New Year approaches, the agricultural machinery station also begins to have holidays.
At this time, Yan Qing received the notice, and Mayor Gu indeed recommended him to take the exam at the automobile factory.
"Finally, I got the confirmation. I thought the mayor was so busy that he forgot about it." Wang Hongjun said with a smile.
Wang Qu slapped him, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could he forget what the mayor personally promised? Even if he forgot, there would be a secretary to remind him."
"That's true. The exam is after the New Year, and we can still celebrate the New Year at home." Wang Hongjun said the last sentence to Yan Qing.
"Well, take a look at the key points I gave you. Don't forget them after the New Year."
"Don't worry, I will definitely prepare well!" Wang Hongjun promised.
Repairing a car sounds much more exciting than repairing a tractor! There is no man who doesn’t like cars. Because he liked it, Wang Hongjun was very motivated when he was learning car repair technology, and he seemed to be quite talented.
This is an unexpected surprise.
Saying goodbye to Wang Qu's uncle and nephew, Yan Qing and Li Yanwen went home together.
This time, with Li Yanwen at his side, Yan Qing couldn't get things from the space halfway, so he had everything prepared in advance.
I prepared some apples and oranges, and also packed up the candies and biscuits I bought at the department store and carried them all the way home.
Fortunately, Lijiazhuang Production Brigade is not too far from the county seat, less than an hour's walk away.
"Yan Qing, are your things heavy? How about I help you carry them for a while?" Li Yanwen said.
Even though he is eating well now, Yan Qing is still tall, thin and looks very weak. On the contrary, Li Yanwen's living standard has improved during this period and he has quickly become stronger.
Yan Qing shook his head, "It's okay, it's not heavy, I can carry it."
Li Yanwen didn't insist anymore, and the two of them rushed back to the Lijiazhuang production brigade.
When they arrived at the village, they separated and went back to their homes.
Yan Shu was waiting at the gate early in the morning. When he saw his brother coming back from a distance, he quickly went to greet him.
"Brother, you're back!"
"Well, why don't you wait at home? How cold is it outside?"
"It's not cold. I'm wearing thick clothes."
Yan Shu raised a smile excitedly, happily helped him carry his things, and walked into the house together.
This year, her changes have been earth-shaking. His body was drawn, and it was almost up to Yan Qing's shoulders. Under the conditioning of Lingquan water, her skin has become white, smooth and delicate. Many young girls have come to ask her for her skin care secrets.
In addition, I have kept up with the nutrition I eat, and my complexion is rosy. The facial features also grew, and as expected, she turned into a beautiful embryo.
There is no trace of the sallow, black and skinny little girl before.
"You're back? Is it cold? Come on and warm yourself up on the kang." Wang Lan also came forward with a smile on her face.
But when I took the things he was carrying, my expression immediately changed. Before I even opened it, I complained, "You're buying something for your family again. We have everything at home. Why are you wasting this money?"
Yan Qing was immune to these words, so he didn't say much and just laughed.
Then, while complaining, Ms. Wang Lan happily took out the things one by one.
"Have you bought the peach cake? Our supply and marketing cooperative is so tight that we can't even get it. After buying so much white sugar, have you exchanged tickets with Master Wang and the others? Why are you buying dried meat? Our production team is celebrating the New Year. Killing a pig! Oops, you’re buying fruit again..."
Yan Qing listened and responded from time to time. When she wasn't paying attention, he even pulled out a bottle of orange soda and gave it to Yan Shu, "Drink it. I bought it specially for you to try."
Orange soda in glass bottles is definitely a classic feature of this era.
Yan Shu picked up the glass bottle very curiously, "Brother, is this orange soda? I saw it in the supply and marketing cooperative. I heard it is made of oranges. Does it taste like oranges?"
"This is made with orange powder. It's different. You'll know after you taste it."
Yan Shu then went to get a cup and carefully poured some out.
After taking a sip, the sweet and sour taste instantly spread in the mouth.
Yan Shu's eyes suddenly lit up, "It tastes delicious!"
It doesn't taste the same as fresh oranges, but it's just as delicious.
Yan Shu poured some more to Wang Lan, "Mom, you should try it too, the orange soda I bought is so delicious!"
Wang Lan refused, "This is what you kids like to drink. Mom doesn't like it!"
But unable to withstand Yan Shu's repeated persuasion, she finally took a bite.
"It's quite sweet."
Then Li Weihua, who just came back, didn't leave behind and tasted them all.
The family shared a small bottle of orange water and were actually very happy.
"Not to mention, this soda does have some flavor." Li Weihua smacked his lips and said, "But it's still not as good as the oranges Yan Qing bought, and I don't know what kind they are. It's better than anything I've ever tasted before!"
Wang Lan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You seem to have eaten a lot of oranges. How can they not be delicious after spending so much money on them?"
Li Weihua thought about it, and that was true. Then I won’t worry about this issue anymore.
Ye Chen carried a load of water, drank the cow, rubbed his frozen hands and returned to the cowshed.
Before entering the door, he called Grandpa, but received no response. He subconsciously quickened his pace and rushed into the room.
As a result, I saw my grandfather lying on the ground, his face red, his body hot, and even though he was unconscious, he still kept coughing.
"grandfather!"
Ye Chen shouted anxiously several times, but there was still no response. He could only put his grandfather on the bed with difficulty, cover him with a quilt, and then hurried to the village clinic to call the doctor.
However, the doctor in the clinic was unwilling to see Stinky Lao Jiu, so he only prescribed two antipyretic pills for him and sent him away.
Ye Chen grabbed the two pills tightly and ran back to the bullpen in a hurry without even bothering to talk to him.
He boiled water, helped grandpa up, and gave him medicine, but found that grandpa was unconscious and could not wake him up at all.
He was panicked and frightened. With trembling hands, he crushed the medicine, dissolved it in water, and then drank it for his grandfather.
But after taking the medicine, grandpa's fever did not go away, and his body was still hot.
Ye Chen was anxious and anxious, spinning around like an ant on a hot pot.
Just when he was desperate and ready to go to the doctor again, someone knocked on his door.
He opened the door, and there stood a tall, thin young man with a very outstanding appearance, fair and handsome.
Ye Chen knew him. He was the most promising child of the old Li family that everyone in the village praised. Because he relied on himself to become a technician at an agricultural machinery station.
Ye Chen didn't know why he was here at this moment, so he just looked at him expressionlessly.
Yan Qing didn't say much and handed him a small bag, "You can give your grandfather some antipyretic and cough medicine first. If things don't work again, tell the captain and go to the county hospital."
Ye Chen's eyes widened in shock, and he didn't bother to ask why he knew this. He quickly took the things and said thank you. Then he hurriedly turned around and returned to the house.
The antipyretics are similar to those prescribed by doctors in the clinic, but there is a pack. There is also a small brown bottle. When you unscrew it, there is a brown potion with a strong medicinal smell.
Ye Chen poured some into the bowl and fed it to his grandfather.
He didn't know whether the medicine he had just given finally took effect, or whether the medicine Yan Qing brought was too effective. Ye Chen soon felt that his grandfather's temperature seemed to have dropped a bit, and his breathing was no longer so heavy, and even the coughing The frequency has gradually decreased.
Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then came back to his senses and went to look for Yan Qing, only to find that Yan Qing had left at some point.
Yan Qing remembered that in the original work, Ye Chen's grandfather became seriously ill at the end of his life and almost couldn't be saved.
Without the golden finger, Zhao Xuemei would be unable to save people. But Yan Qing couldn't just watch a person who was supposed to be rescued die like this.
That's why he showed up at this time. Adding a few drops of spiritual spring water to the cough medicine should be able to save Grandpa Ye Chen.
In the original work, Ye Chen finally had an emotional change towards Zhao Xuemei because Zhao Xuemei saved his grandfather. From Yan Qing's point of view, this feeling is more of gratitude.
When people are in desperate situations, a little help will be magnified infinitely. What's more, Zhao Xuemei saved his grandfather who depended on him for life.
Her parents couldn't bear the blow. After both passed away, Ye Chen's grandfather was Ye Chen's only relative. It was also his last life-saving straw.
This shows how important Zhao Xuemei's life-saving grace is to him.
Yan Qing even felt that Ye Chen and Yan Shu came together in the first life because Yan Shu saved his grandfather. Although she didn't have a spiritual spring, Yan Shu was kind-hearted and might have asked the captain to send her to the hospital.
That's why before and after Zhao Xuemei's rebirth, Ye Chen's choices were completely different, because he chose his wife out of gratitude rather than emotion.
I can't say that he is a scumbag. He has a rough destiny and has experienced too much. Just surviving has already consumed all his strength. How can he still think about love
Moreover, in this era, there are not so many people who only stay together if they are in love. Whether it was out of gratitude or emotion, after he chose his wife, he fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband.
Whether it's to Yan Shu or Zhao Xuemei.
Moreover, he had no knowledge of Yan Shu's tragedy. In order to prevent them from interacting, Zhao Xuemei would not let him know about Yan Shu at all.
Therefore, Yan Qing cannot dislike this person. Just a poor person under the tide of the times.
This time, I hope he has a different ending.
Back home, Yan Shu was making dumplings with her mother. She took out one of her treasured orange candies and wrapped it in a dumpling wrapper.
"Whoever eats this will have good luck all year long!"
Looking at her carefree and bright smile, Yan Qing smiled. Anyway, in this life, he would never let her end up like that.
The white and fat dumplings were served out, one bowl per person. The skin is thin, the filling is big, and the aroma is fragrant.
Although there is only a small amount of meat, Wang Lan mixes minced mushrooms, cabbage and fungus, as well as fried tofu cubes, and it tastes very good. It tastes better than pure meat filling.
"Oh, I got some candy!" Yan Shu shouted happily, "I am blessed this year!"
"Eh? I ate it too!" Li Weihua was also surprised and held up the half-bitten dumpling for everyone to see.
Then Yan Qing also raised the dumpling in his hand, "I have some too."
The three people's eyes turned to Wang Lan, and she smiled and said, "I've packed four of them. Everyone has a share. Our family will be blessed next year!"
"Haha, yes, our family will be blessed next year!"
The family laughed constantly and spent the New Year happily.
After the New Year, Yan Qing started to pack his things and prepare to leave home on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
He and Wang Hongjun had to rush to the city first and then take the exam for the eighth grade of junior high school.
Yan Qing was naturally confident about the exam, and since he was personally recommended by Mayor Gu, as long as nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely pass the exam.
Then, as expected, he was successfully admitted to the automobile factory.
Wang Hongjun also had a near miss. Although his grades were a bit low, he was still on the admission list.
