Chapter 90: Dad is going on a business trip to the farm in the north
The farm manager took a liking to Old Zhang's granddaughter, who had been sent down with them. Old Zhang's granddaughter was a high school student, renowned for her exemplary academic performance. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also a top student. On her first day at the farm, the director's wife took a liking to her.
In order to force Old Zhang's granddaughter to marry his stupid son, the farm manager abused his power for personal gain and made them work day and night. Old Qin had already suffered from heatstroke yesterday, and after working for several nights in a row, his body could not bear it any longer. When he was chopping wood in the mountains, he fell down without paying attention. Not only did he get a long bloody cut on his arm, but he also broke his arm.
"Xiao Zheng's mother, stop crying. I'm not dead yet! It's just a small wound. Go find some herbs and apply them on the wound. As long as it can stop the bleeding, that's all that's needed."
Father Qin spoke lightly, but judging by the way he paused for several seconds after speaking, everyone knew that he must be in great pain.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? One by one, I don't know what's going on. Do you still want to eat? You're not hungry, are you?"
The farm manager's wife was carrying an iron bucket with a large iron shovel on top. She put one hand on her waist and pointed at the men in the cowshed with the other, scolding them harshly.
"It's the farm manager's family. It's not that we don't want to go to work, it's just that Lao Qin's condition is too serious. The weather is so hot now. If his wound is not treated properly, it will become infected and have a fever, which could be fatal!"
The one who spoke was Lao Zhang.
Old Zhang is not yet 60 years old. When he first came here, his hair was still quite black. But since he came to the farm, his hair has grown thicker day by day, and now he has a full head of black hair.
"Oh, Old Man Zhang, you've been chosen as the good guy, right? You're so capable, so why don't you find me a tractor?"
Old man Zhang choked and shut his mouth in shame.
A few days later, seeing that Qin's father was delirious with fever and his arm was swollen terribly, the manager did not want to cause any death, so he found a barefoot doctor from the village to treat him.
After the barefoot doctor's treatment, Qin's father's fever was not as severe, but his arm did not get better.
On this day, Nuan's father changed his habit of not going home until dark and came back at noon.
"Third brother, why are you back so early today?"
Nuan's mother was quite surprised to see Nuan's father come back, and asked a few questions out of curiosity.
"Nothing, it's just that Ding Dali has a strange disease and is always taking leave. Director Shen came over several times, but he was not there. After Director Shen learned about his condition, he fired him."
"Okay, fine! See how he bullies you this time!"
Nuanbao was happy and clapped his hands happily.
"What does that have to do with you coming back early?"
Grandpa hit the nail on the head and pointed out the point directly.
"Oh, a few team leaders are going on a business trip to the northernmost farm tomorrow. I've been promoted to team leader, so I'll be going with them tomorrow. The director asked us team leaders to go home and pack our things."
The northernmost farm? Isn't that the farm where Qin Zheng's parents live?
Nuanbao stared at Nuanba with bright eyes, making Nuanba almost forget what he was going to say.
After lunch, Nuan's father immediately went back to the house and gave the more than 100 yuan he earned from delivering eggs to Nuanbao.
"Well, 50 is the deposit, and the other 50 is today's payment. Your dad hasn't been greedy at all!"
Nuan's father mistakenly thought that Nuanbao looked at him like that before eating because he was anxious to collect money, so as soon as he entered the house, he immediately started searching his pockets.
