Chapter 25 Barefoot doctor?



Shen Anan, who was excited all night, left the house without even having breakfast the next day.

She was like one of the village scoundrels, wandering around the village, touching every tree she saw, no matter how big or small, for fear of missing out.

When Lu Yanzhou delivered the food, he found Shen Anan wandering in the woods near the village.

"An An, why are you here?"

After discovering that his little girlfriend was outside, Lu Yanzhou was not in a hurry to go to Shen's house. He walked over with the bag of food.

This girl was touching here and there in the woods just now, and he was a little curious about what she was doing?

Shen Anan also noticed Lu Yanzhou, and her heart skipped a beat. After trying out her supernatural powers last night, she was a little excited and had forgotten about this person.

I didn't expect this person to come today.

She clapped her hands, straightened her clothes and said with a smile:

"Before I came back, I borrowed a copy of the Compendium of Materia Medica from a classmate and wrote down the names of many medicinal herbs. Today, I have nothing to do, so I came out to see if there are any herbs I recognize near the village!"

She did read Compendium of Materia Medica for most of the night, so there is nothing wrong with what she said.

Moreover, when she was in school, she had learned about human medicinal herbs from the barefoot doctor of the brigade, so she was already familiar with many of them.

"Identify medicinal herbs?" Lu Yanzhou looked around in confusion.

Apart from the trees whose bark had been peeled off, there were barely any weeds around. Where did the medicinal herbs come from?

"This mulberry bark can be used as medicine to moisten the lungs and relieve asthma, promote diuresis and reduce swelling, and lower blood sugar."

Shen Anan looked at the tree stump in her hand. What a coincidence, the tree happened to be a mulberry tree, and the bark could be used as medicine.

"Oh, so you see, do you want to be barefoot doctors?" Lu Yanzhou asked.

He remembered that the brigade's barefoot doctor had just passed away and there was no new doctor in the team, so his sister was sent to the town whenever she was sick.

If this girl is interested in these, she can give it a try.

"Barefoot doctor? I only know a few medicinal herbs, I don't know anything else!" Shen Anan looked at Lu Yanzhou expectantly.

Why didn't she think of it?

This job is quite suitable for her abilities.

That's right, she remembered that this barefoot doctor was not a full-time doctor, but a doctor who received work points, and he had to go to the fields when he was busy.

Thinking of this, Shen Anan hesitated again.

"The barefoot doctors of the brigade need training. You graduated from high school and know a lot about medicinal herbs. If you go for the training, you will definitely pass."

The more Lu Yanzhou talked, the more he felt that this job was good.

Since he couldn't let anyone go with the army now, he decided to find an easier job for his wife.

He has an allowance, so it's a good job.

"Huh? How long will this training take?"

Shen Anan had never paid attention to the barefoot doctors before.

After all, this was not within the scope of her previous work considerations, so she was not sure what the situation was.

"I'm not sure about the details, but it'll probably be a few months. If you want to go, I'll go talk to my uncle."

His uncle is the captain of their Dongfeng Brigade, so there is basically no problem for him to write letters of introduction and recommend people.

As for the brigade secretary, he was sent from outside. The brigade is generally very xenophobic, and the affairs of the brigade are basically decided by his uncle.

“…”

Shen Anan fell silent.

Seeing this, Lu Yanzhou said, "Don't worry. The training will definitely be after the Chinese New Year anyway. You can think about it later."

"Well, let's ask after the New Year!" Shen Anan was a little moved.

Although she doesn't know medical skills, she has special abilities, and now she has a photographic memory. What is there to be afraid of?

The only thing I am worried about is that traditional Chinese medicine might be in danger during the campaign to destroy the Four Olds.

But she can study Western medicine. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine is more effective, and she has plenty of time to study.

After all, the requirements for doctors in this era were not as high as in later generations, so it was completely fine to go for further studies after joining the job.

"Then it's settled."

Lu Yanzhou was in a good mood.

Shen Anan graduated from high school, so as long as she was willing to go for training and study, there would be basically no problem with this job.

He felt relieved.

Shen Anan smiled, and then saw the sackcloth bag that Lu Yanzhou was holding: “What is this?”

"It's millet, only 50 kilograms, but it should be enough to last for a while. Let's go?" He said as he picked up the millet.

"Where are you going?" Shen Anan didn't react.

Lu Yanzhou: "Go to your house!"

This girl really didn't know or she forgot that he said he would help her find food.

Shen Anan only then realized that this guy was actually here to deliver food.

Then she took Lu Yanzhou to her home.

On the way back, many people in the village discovered me and came over to ask me a few questions.

Soon, the news that Shen Anan and Lu Yanzhou were dating spread.

At the same time, news spread that Lu Yanzhou had delivered food to the Shen family.

Then, as soon as he got home, he was caught by his old mother at home. She didn't see Lu Yanzhou following behind him, and she started to teach Shen Anan a lesson:

"You silly girl, I thought you went to look for the third son of the Lu family yesterday. What were you doing wandering around the village by yourself yesterday?"

Yang Hongmei really didn't expect that this girl actually wandered around the village all day yesterday.

If the villagers hadn't just said out of curiosity that they saw her behind the village, she wouldn't have known!

"Mom, what are you saying? Third brother is here!" Shen Anan shouted hurriedly.

How embarrassing it is for her future husband to look at her mother and scold her!

"Aunt, I'm bringing something to An An!" Lu Yanzhou also took the opportunity to speak.

Only then did Yang Hongmei discover the future son-in-law behind Shen Anan.

"Oh~ Why are you carrying so many things? Come in, come in!" Yang Hongmei's eyes lit up when she saw Lu Yanzhou.

She pulled Shen Anan away and was about to let her good son-in-law into the house.

After Lu Yanzhou went in with the food, she still fell behind and scolded Shen Anan:

"You stupid girl, you didn't even tell your mother when someone came. Did you want to see your mother make a fool of herself?"

After saying that, he quickly followed and greeted the people in the room.

“.....”

Shen Anan rolled her eyes and followed in without saying a word.

Anyway, when someone thinks you are wrong, even your breathing is wrong. This is her mother's current state. What else can she say?

The first time Lu Yanzhou visited the Shen family, he brought 50 kilograms of millet and was warmly welcomed.

When he left, Shen Anan was pushed out to be sent away.

"If you come to see me next time, why don't you come later? Or should we go out? You just brought the things over like that, who knows what these people will say about it!"

Looking at the women in the village who were always looking at him and his partner on the road, Shen Anan put forward her own opinions.

These gossipers like to gossip every day for no reason. She really doesn't want to become the subject of their after-dinner gossip.

"Okay! I'll do as you say." Lu Yanzhou didn't object.

It’s okay to come later, so you can go to the town or county during the day to see if you need anything for the wedding.
