Chapter 51 Heartbreaking Past



Lin Qingyan took the paper and pen from her. The paper was very thin and had grids drawn on it, looking like the paper from a notebook used by first or second graders. The pen was a half-pencil, with one end already sharpened.

She picked a few cotton leaves, stacked them together, placed the paper on top, and wrote down the prescription that Li Qinqin needed.

While writing the prescription, she instructed Li Qinqin: "Actually, a good mood is the best medicine to cure all diseases. You should maintain this state every day, smile more, keep a cheerful mood, reduce the accumulation of toxins in your body, and your acne will heal faster."

Upon hearing this, Li Qinqin was even happier.

"Sister Qingyan, I never knew that smiling could have such benefits. I will smile more every day from now on."

"Of course, a good mood is very beneficial to our health, while a bad mood will harm our body."

"Yes, I'll remember, Sister Qingyan." She gestured upwards with her finger to her lips: "I will definitely smile more often from now on."

Lin Qingyan handed her the written prescription and described the appearance of each herb in detail. She was free to decide whether to buy it at a pharmacy or collect it herself from the mountain.

Lin Qingyan only spent a short time catching insects in the cotton field in the morning, and then the task of catching insects in the whole field was completed. The team leader then took her to the sweet potato field.

The squad leader taught her how to turn over the sweet potato vines, and then left Lin Qingyan to do the work by herself.

There were some weeds in the field, such as thistle, hop, goosegrass and purslane. These weeds not only have well-developed root systems, but are also quite tough. In addition, there is little rain now and the soil is relatively dry. Lin Qingyan always has a hard time pulling these weeds. Pulling out a single goosegrass can make her pant for a long time.

The sixth squad leader passed by the sweet potato field and saw her sitting on the ground, panting and coughing, so he came over.

"Young Lin, are you not feeling well?"

Lin Qingyan took a few breaths and said, "Uncle, some of the grass is really hard to pull out. It takes a lot of strength. I... I'm having trouble breathing, and my chest feels tight."

“Oh dear, Xiao Lin, pulling weeds isn’t exactly easy, but it’s not exactly light work either. Some weeds are very stubborn and hard to pull out. But if you don’t pull them out by the roots, they’ll just grow back. Forget it, if you can’t pull them out, then don’t do it. Or, or…” The team leader thought for a moment, “Or you could go and gather pig feed with those kids.”

"Cut pig feed." Lin Qingyan's eyes lit up immediately. This was an easy job. "Okay, Uncle, I'm willing to cut pig feed."

"Okay, then I'll tell you first which grasses pigs like to eat and which they can't eat, so you can tell the difference."

"OK."

After the squad leader finished explaining, he took her to the brigade headquarters warehouse to get a sickle and a bamboo basket for cutting pig feed, and told her where to find pig feed.

She walked quite a distance, and as usual, she put down her basket, sat on a rock to rest for a while, and then started working again.

The area at the foot of the mountain is covered with lush trees, providing many shady spots. Mountain breezes blow in from time to time, making it much cooler than the ground.

Her feet sank into the gravel on the ground, which rolled down the small slope.

Suddenly, a small, crisp sound rang out; she could tell it wasn't the sound of stones colliding.

She looked down and saw something that looked like it was made of steel under the rubble. She pushed aside the rubble, picked it up, and was immediately shocked.

The steel dragon model in her hand was exactly the same as her jade pendant.

Her jade pendant is unique; how did this steel model come about?

Are they just coincidentally the same?

It's also possible that they were all made by the same craftsman.

She flipped the steel dragon over and found that the other side had no pattern, but instead had a small tail.
