Someone saw the oxcart heading towards the Song family compound and asked Zhang Hongmei with a smile, "Doesn't Yang Zhiqing live in the Zhiqing compound?"
Zhang Hongmei hurriedly explained, "My daughter Lifen is in poor health, and she was afraid that living in the Youth Educator's Home would cause trouble to others. Xiaoyun said she had a room available, so she let Lifen move in."
The man smiled and said, "Song Zhiqing is a very skilled doctor. He can cure Yang Zhiqing no matter how ill he is. You can rest assured."
Seeing Zhang Hongmei's puzzled expression, the man continued, "You don't know yet, but Song Zhiqing has passed the barefoot doctor exam and is now our village's barefoot doctor. Not only Qinghe Village, but also people from nearby villages come here for treatment. Song Zhiqing is now very famous in our area."
Zhang Hongmei was secretly surprised. It had only been a short time, maybe a month in total, and Xiaoyun not only had her own house in this mountain village, but also became a well-known barefoot doctor. One look at the villagers' attitudes told her that she had some status in the village.
I remembered my daughter once said that Song Yun had excellent grades when she was in school. She was never outside the top three in the second grade in exams, and most of the time she was first in the second grade. If the world were not bad, with Xiaoyun's ability, it would be a sure thing for her to be admitted to Beijing University. What a pity.
But it’s not bad now. Away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, it’s nice to live a quiet life in this mountain village.
The ox cart stopped at the gate of the Song family's courtyard. Song Ziyi heard the noise and ran out. When he saw Yang Lifen's family, he immediately called out to them.
Zhang Hongmei was so fond of Song Ziyi when she saw him that she wanted to give him all the delicious food she brought from Beijing. He was good-looking, smart, and sweet-mouthed. The little boy could even help with housework and moving things. Who wouldn't like such a child?
Before entering the Song family courtyard, Zhang Hongmei thought that the house Song Yun mentioned was at most a room rented from a fellow villager. After all, the houses in the countryside belong to the collective, and each household has its own house. Although the living situation is not as tight as in the city, there will definitely be no extra empty houses for rent. If the educated youth want to rent a house, they can only rent the empty rooms shared by the fellow villagers.
Even if you have money, it is basically impossible to build a house. Unless you marry someone in the village and separate your household, you may be able to get a piece of residential land.
But Song Yun's house has a big yard, a very big yard. Excluding the main hall, the woodshed and the shed for storing sundries, there are four rooms with kangs. She was worried that she and the soldiers would have no place to live when they came to the village, but now she doesn't have to worry at all.
"Xiao Yun, this house belongs to you alone?" Zhang Hongmei couldn't believe it.
Song Yun smiled and said, "This house used to be a deserted yard. I spent some money to ask the villagers to help repair it. I call it repair, but it's actually no different from rebuilding it. I signed an agreement with the village, and now this house is basically mine. The only way the village will take it back is if I leave the village completely one day."
Zhang Hongmei nodded as she looked at the house. "It's true that we should sign the agreement. It's a guarantee for you. The roof, doors, and windows are all fully insured. It cost a lot of money."
Song Yun took them to the west room to put their luggage. Yang Lifen wanted to live in the same room with Song Yun, so Song Yun helped her move her luggage into her own room.
After Zhang Hongmei and Yang Bing finished their luggage, they went to visit the backyard. When they saw the herbs drying in the sun in half of the yard and the pheasants and rabbits hanging on the corridor, they were shocked.
Zhang Hongmei and her husband were both cadres and received a fixed amount of meat coupons every month. Their living conditions in Beijing were considered good, but they were shocked to see the rows of pheasants and rabbits hanging there.
