Old Cao's wife was in poor health, and he couldn't find anything good to nourish her. So he always cherished the food that Song Yan gave him.
Old Cao still feels grateful to Song Yan. It wasn't like Song Yan didn't pay for his carriage rides; back then, carriages were all provided by the brigade.
It's a favor when someone gives you something.
Especially when Song Yan was about to leave for university, Old Cao's wife had been suffering from a cold, but after recovering, she had been listless, and he thought she was going to die.
Song Yan came and examined her, and gave her twenty pills. Just like that, her husband's spirits lifted immediately.
Most people who live near the mountains have been inside the mountains to some extent, and Old Cao has seen ginseng before. He knows what ginseng smells like.
He could clearly smell the ginseng in the pills.
He knew he owed Song Yan a huge favor.
Now, it's obvious that Song Yan will probably have a hard time coming back. He's really happy to be able to use him now.
Song Yan wanted Old Cao's help because he knew Old Cao would listen to him.
Old Cao was driving his cart, and when they were almost at the commune, Song Yan told him to tie it up next to a small grove of trees. She then suggested that Old Cao go for a stroll around the commune.
Song Yan said that once he finished his own business, he would lead the horse-drawn carriage to the supply and marketing cooperative.
It wasn't a long distance, and the roads were all flat, so Song Yan could easily drive the car to the supply and marketing cooperative. Old Cao thought about it and agreed.
Song Yanming clearly had something to do. He knew he shouldn't ask, so he didn't say another word.
After Old Cao left, Song Yan observed the area and found it indeed deserted. He then put away the willow baskets used to conceal their presence.
Old Cao was anxiously waiting at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, worried that Song Yan would miss the bus. When he finally saw Song Yan, the old man was overjoyed.
Song Yanzhen found that such a simple and genuine smile very heartwarming...
On the way back, Song Yan gave Old Cao another paper package.
"What is this..." Old Cao stopped mid-sentence. He smelled the familiar medicinal scent again. "This is...this is..."
Song Zhiqing, even though I don't know much about herbs, I know there is ginseng here.
This thing is precious…
"If it works, then it's good. Medicine that can cure diseases is worth using! I work with Master Han and I have access to all kinds of medicinal materials. For me, ginseng is not precious."
"I think Aunt Cao looks alright! Give this to her, and you all take good care of yourselves. I'll be back to see you in a few years!" Song Yan said.
It would be a lie to say that Old Cao wasn't moved when he received the gift.
When Song Yan returned, he and his wife invited him to dinner.
His son helped prepare everything at home. Actually, there wasn't much good food for Song Yan to eat.
Song Yan didn't mind at all, and even gave him a lot of things. They were much more valuable than the simple meals he had at home.
Now she's giving the medication again.
Old Cao's eyes welled up with tears...
Song Yan not only gave medicine to Old Cao's wife, but also to other elderly women like Wang Wenjuan's mother-in-law, Aunt Ren, and Chen Xiaodong's mother. These women were all getting on in years and their health was failing. Song Yan gave them any suitable over-the-counter medicine he had prepared.
When making medicine, Song Yan always added spring water. It was definitely beneficial for the elderly.
When Sister-in-law Cheng, Sister-in-law Cheng, and other people who were on good terms with her came back, they all asked Song Yan to take a look at any of their ailments.
Song Yan said he had prepared the medicine for them and mailed it back.
Actually, neither of them were the type to take advantage of others, and they didn't want Song Yan to go through all that trouble. But Song Yan was happy to oblige.
Song Yan felt it was worthwhile to be kind to these people, especially since she also had other benefits.
Song Yan provides free medical treatment and gives away medicine grown in his space to cure diseases. The speed at which his space expands is faster than the speed at which he gives away the things produced in his space.
Of course, this is relative. Compared to before, the speed is far inferior.
Therefore, Song Yan deliberately complained to the old man that he had absorbed too much energy from the space.
The old man had been boasting about his brewed wine, saying he would only let Song Yan smell it and not let her drink it.
After being complained about by Song Yan several times, the old man was forced to say that he would send wine to Song Yan later.
Is this alright now?
Song Yan was secretly delighted. Everything produced in the space was exceptionally good, and he assumed the wine would be the same.
Song Yan asked for more, intending to give them away later.
As the carriage approached the brigade, the scenery along the road became increasingly familiar.
In that small village, Song Yan lived a very comfortable life in those years.
This farewell might be many years before I return.
The educated youth who lived here all have feelings for this place.
I ran into Liu Wenxiu yesterday; she's the wife of Huang Guoqing, a former educated youth.
She said Huang Guoqing would be back today.
Huang Guoqing had also graduated from university and been assigned a job. He came back this time to pick up his wife and son and take them to their workplace.
Huang Guoqing was the one who genuinely wanted to bring his wife to live with him and was truly committed to staying by her side.
After graduating, Li Yuanzhao returned to the county.
Song Yan just called her. He asked if she had time to come back to the brigade and visit, so the rest of them could get together.
Song Yan had prepared a lot of things for her, but it would be too much trouble for her to carry all those bags and packages. She should carry them herself.
Li Yuanzhao also has feelings for this land. When she heard that Song Yan had returned, she agreed to come back tomorrow without hesitation.
Li Yuanzhao was driven back by her husband, Cheng Wenkai.
Just then, Song Yan gave Han Yu something in the county, so Li Yuanzhao took it back with her!
When Li Yuanzhao returned, many people from the brigade came to see her.
While we were eating, one restaurant brought us a side of chicken stew with mushrooms, another brought us a side of braised sauerkraut...
Everyone knows that Li Yuanzhao and Huang Guoqing won't be staying for more than a few days, so how could they let them go from house to house hosting guests?
