Zhang Yang walked towards the female educated youth and quickly brought back a small mirror. Xie Feng snatched the mirror from his hand.
Looking at my face in the mirror, it was covered with tiny, granular pimples.
It looks densely packed and red.
It's like having a face covered in pockmarks.
It completely ruined his handsome face.
Zhang Yang looked at his face and said, "Xie Feng, is your face allergic? How did it get like this after just one night's sleep?"
Xie Feng wasn't sure either; he hadn't eaten anything else or done anything else yesterday.
"I'm going to see the village doctor." He hadn't even had breakfast yet, so he quickly tidied himself up and headed towards the village doctor.
Damn it, I don't know what's wrong, but his face is incredibly itchy.
When he arrived at the village doctor's, the doctor gave him a brief examination and said, "Your face looks like it's having an allergic reaction. Did you come into contact with something, or did you accidentally eat something?"
Xie Feng shook his head: "No, I didn't come into contact with anything yesterday, nor did I eat anything. Could you prescribe some medicine to make it go away? Also, my face is really itchy right now, is there any way to stop the itching?"
"Okay, I'll prescribe some for you to apply when you get home. Your face will be a little itchy at first, so please don't scratch it, otherwise the marks will remain on your face after it heals."
Xie Feng nodded, took the medicine, and returned to the educated youth settlement.
I planned to go to work after applying the medicine, but my face became even itchier after applying it.
He gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to scratch, but the intense, agonizing itch was driving him to the brink of collapse.
Zhang Yang watched him apply the medicine and asked with concern, "How is it? What did the village doctor say about your face?"
"He prescribed some medicine and told me to apply it first."
"Are you going to work today? If not, I'll ask the team leader for leave for you."
Xie Feng nodded; "Could you help me ask for leave? My face is so itchy."
Xie Feng couldn't stand it anymore, so he reached out and scratched himself, which made him feel a little better.
But what followed was even more intense itching.
He almost wanted to scratch it hard, but reason made him stop.
He didn't go to work all morning and stayed in the dormitory at the educated youth settlement.
Forget about following Su Li, he's so uncomfortable right now he can't even sit still, and he keeps wanting to reach out and grab her.
He couldn't take it anymore by the afternoon and went to see the village doctor again.
"My face is still very itchy, could you take another look?"
The village doctor looked at his face; it was worse than in the morning, with some areas even broken and festering. The village doctor shook his head; "I suggest you go to the town hospital. I treated you for an allergic reaction, but your face looks worse now."
Xie Feng frowned deeply; "So you mean I'm not having an allergic reaction?"
The village doctor couldn't figure out what was wrong with him either, so he didn't dare to prescribe any more medicine for him.
Xie Feng's face was really itchy, and he tried his best to control himself from touching it.
After leaving the village doctor's place, he walked towards the village entrance. On the way, he encountered several aunties who, upon seeing his face, gossiped, "Xie Zhiqing, what happened to your face? Why are there so many bumps?"
"Yeah! What happened to your face? Why did you suddenly get so many pockmarks?"
Xie Feng was extremely agitated at this moment. He just wanted to get to the town hospital as soon as possible to get the doctor's help to relieve the itching, and he didn't want to pay any attention to her at all.
He walked straight past the woman.
"Hey, why isn't he answering me yet?"
Xie Feng went directly to the brigade leader's house, and the oxcarts rarely went out in the afternoon.
He thought he would borrow a bicycle.
The brigade leader wasn't home, and Aunt Li had just returned from the fields and saw Xie Feng standing in her house.
Upon closer inspection, I was shocked. What happened to Xie Zhiqing's face?
What a handsome young man! How did he end up like this?
"Xie Zhiqing, what's the matter?"
Xie Feng forced a smile. "I'd like to borrow your bicycle to go to the hospital to get my face checked."
Aunt Li didn't make things difficult for him; "Okay, I'll go and massage it for you. You really need to get your face checked out right away."
Xie Feng went to the hospital, and the doctor prescribed medicine.
Su Li also had a few days of peace and quiet. It's true that you can't always be on guard against others.
We need to find something for those who have nothing to do.
Lu Shan gave her several kinds of medicinal powder, which she could try on Xie Feng later.
Su Li has planted more vegetables and grains in her space these past few days.
Time flies, and before they knew it, it was time for Su Li to register at university.
Su Li had already packed her things. Gou Sheng looked at Su Li with red eyes and said, "Sister, when you get to Beijing, don't forget to write to me. I will study hard and try to get into a university there in the future."
Su Li took out a wad of banknotes from her pocket and handed them to him, saying, "Gou Sheng, take good care of yourself at home. Keep these banknotes safe. I'll go over there and find out which school you should go to, and I'll figure out a way to get you there."
Gou Sheng took the money and said, "Sister, thank you."
Chen Shengnan couldn't bear to stop her; "Su Li, we must keep in touch often in the future."
Su Li nodded; "I'll write to you after I settle down in Beijing."
Chen Shengnan hugged Su Li tightly; "I really hate to part with you. I'm so grateful to have met such a good friend like you this year."
"Me too," Su Li said, equally reluctant.
In the end, Su Li got on the village's oxcart. The village head, Aunt Li, Aunt Zhang, and others who were on good terms with Su Li all came to see her off.
Su Li's eyes were a little red; they had helped her a lot this year.
"After Su Li goes out, she can come back and visit when she has time," Aunt Li said with a smile.
"Yes! We're all looking forward to the day you come back."
"Sister, sister, Ya Ya and I will miss you."
Tiger, holding Ya Ya's hand, followed Lu Huai and said.
He was also more skinned alive this year than at the beginning.
“Su and Xie, when you return from your studies, don’t forget to come and help build our village.”
Su Li's initial emotions of being moved were extinguished by a single sentence from the captain.
Xie Feng is also leaving today. Of the educated youth, only the two of them got into a university in Beijing. Zhang Xia also did well, but she's going to a different university closer to home. Lu Huai is also going to a university in Beijing, but he plans to leave later.
Su Li got into the oxcart, waved to the crowd, and Old Li drove the oxcart to take her to the town's bus station.
"Su Zhiqing, Xie Zhiqing, I'll see you off here."
Su Li took an apple out of her pocket and said gratefully to Old Li, "This apple is for you. Thank you for taking care of me this past year."
“I can’t accept this from you, Su Zhiqing. Keep it for your journey.”
Su Li handed it to him, saying, "I have more. Take this apple and hurry back to the village! The car will be here soon; I'll wait here by myself."
"I'll wait with you," Xie Feng said, spoiling the mood.
Su Li ignored him and kept her distance from Xie Feng after Old Li left.
"Are you so afraid of me that you're worried I'll eat you?"
