The ox cart slowly drove across the stone bridge at the entrance of the village and soon entered the village.
The weather in Northeast China is really cold. Jiang Yan is used to staying in Beijing, so when she came back, she specially brought a military coat with her, for fear that she could not adapt to the weather here. After all, she had not been in Northeast China for several years. Unexpectedly, it really came in handy.
She huddled herself inside her military coat with her collar turned up high and a green scarf covering half of her face.
"Little Jiang Zhiqing, did you come back specially to see the captain?"
"Well, Third Brother Bao said that Uncle was very ill, and I was worried, so I wanted to come and see him."
Old Luo couldn't help but nodded. Xiao Jiang, the educated youth, was a man with a conscience. Some people, after leaving the Victory Brigade, never wanted to come back again in their entire lives, but they didn't know that every time they saw him, they would see him one less time, and they might never see him again in their entire lives.
Jiang Yan sat on the ox cart and looked at the familiar yet somewhat strange small village. The corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly, as if she had had a dream, and everything in front of her was like a scene in a dream.
When others go to the countryside, they suffer only hardship and fatigue. Looking back, it seems like they were always hungry and had endless work to do.
But when Jiang Yan went to the countryside, she didn't have so many worries. She lived a carefree life and met many people who were very nice to her. So for her, going to the countryside was actually a beautiful and rare memory.
Of course, when you go to the countryside, you will inevitably encounter some extreme things, but fortunately she solved them all well in the end. Moreover, because of going to the countryside, she also met her true love and gave birth to a pair of lovely twins, so there is one more reason to like going to the countryside!
The ox cart passed through the factory compound. The gate was still the same gate, and the courtyard wall was still the same wall. Jiang Yan looked at it and felt particularly familiar.
At this time of day, the weather was freezing cold and there was almost no one outside. Uncle Luo parked the ox cart steadily outside the Bao family's door.
"You guys go in, I have to go back to town to pick up someone from the railway, please keep an eye on your dad."
"Um."
"Uncle Luo, slow down."
Uncle Luo adjusted his hat and said with a smile, "This cow is old and can't move fast. Go inside." After that, he waved his whip and drove away.
The people in the room heard the noise, pushed the door open to check, and found two people standing at the door.
"Railway, this is..."
Li Caiying was a little hesitant to recognize him. Jiang Yan surrounded him too tightly and she couldn't tell who he was.
Jiang Yan pulled down her scarf and said, "Aunt, it's me."
Li Caiying took a closer look and thought, wow, isn’t this the educated youth Xiao Jiang? He’s really here?
Her tears fell all at once, and she didn't even bother to wipe them away. She slapped her thigh fiercely, "Ah? Little, little educated youth Jiang."
After saying that, he ran out of the yard, hugged Jiang Yan, and asked in a trembling voice: "Is it really you?"
Jiang Yan took off her scarf so that she could see clearly, "It's really me, Auntie, I'm back."
The wind outside was bitingly cold, but Li Caiying's heart was burning with warmth.
No one expected Jiang Yan to come. They just wanted to give it a try, but they didn't expect her to actually come.
"Aunt, it's cold outside, come in."
"Why."
Li Caiying held Jiang Yan's hand tightly and went into the house with her. Bao Tielu followed behind with the luggage.
It is still the familiar tiled house, with two rooms in the east and west, two big pots in the kitchen, and the water tank is still placed at the door.
Jiang Yan followed Li Caiying to the east room. The lights were on in the room and the kang was brightly lit.
Bao Zhiguo was sleeping on the kang. The three people entering the room didn't seem to disturb him and he was still sleeping soundly.
Jiang Yan leaned over to take a look and was shocked. How could he be so thin?
In the past, Bao Zhiguo was a tall and strong man. He was a farmer, working in the fields. He had a lot of fat on his body, not a fat man.
But now Bao Zhiguo is very thin, his cheeks are sunken, and his complexion is particularly bad.
【Big Wheel, activate the perspective ability. 】
[Received, the clairvoyance ability has been activated. ]
Jiang Yan looked at Bao Zhiguo's lungs and indeed found the lesion. She sighed. At this location, even with surgery, the chance of survival was not great. With chemotherapy and radiotherapy, his life could be extended by half a year to a year at most.
However, Bao Zhiguo’s current condition is not suitable for any surgery.
Fortunately, she came.
"Uncle has lost a lot of weight." Jiang Yan sighed, "Aunt, don't worry, I'm here, let's find a way to treat Uncle with Chinese medicine."
"This... can be cured?"
Jiang Yan smiled and said, "My grandma also had this disease. She took Chinese medicine for half a year and is now as good as a normal person. She was cured at such an old age, so what is there for me to be afraid of?"
Li Caiying was stunned for a moment, then grabbed Jiang Yan's hand and said, "Really? You didn't lie to me?"
"Of course it's true. I went back to the military academy and majored in medicine. After my grandmother returned to Tianning, she was also very thin. After a checkup, it turned out that she had the same disease as your uncle. She was old and the doctors refused to operate on her, so I used traditional Chinese medicine to treat her. She is fine now. Every time she goes to the hospital for a checkup, she is in good health. It has been several years and there has been no recurrence."
Li Caiying was crying and laughing at the same time, and she didn't know what to say.
The person lying on the kang finally woke up. Maybe it was because Li Caiying cried too loudly, Bao Zhiguo opened his eyes in a daze.
"My dear, what's wrong?"
He looked in a daze and saw two more people in the room, one was the third brother, who was the other one?
"Uncle, do you still recognize me?"
Bao Zhiguo took a closer look and hummed, "Little Jiang the educated youth?"
After several years, when she returned, she was still Xiao Jiang, an educated youth.
"Of course it's me. What's up? I heard you missed me." Jiang Yan sat on the edge of the kang and reached out to hold his skinny, shriveled and rough hands.
"Why are you here? Oh, San'er ran over and actually found you?"
"I have my address and my home phone number, how can you not find them?"
Bao Zhiguo was smiling, and there was no sign of sadness on his face.
"Okay, my San'er has made it big. He is not afraid to go to a big city like the capital, and he can still find people."
Bao Tielu was both happy and sad. "Dad, the educated youth Xiao Jiang said that your disease can be cured."
"It's all nonsense, you are just trying to fool me and make me happy." Bao Zhiguo didn't believe it at all. He heard from the doctor that there was no better way to treat this disease except surgery.
"It's true. If you don't believe me, ask Sister Jiang."
Jiang Yan also wanted to rekindle the patient's desire to live. "Really, uncle, don't worry, my grandma had this disease. The old lady can eat and drink now, and she is completely cured. As long as you cooperate with the treatment, take medicine on time every day, and eat well, I will definitely be able to cure you."
Bao Zhiguo probably still didn't believe it, but in order to comfort Jiang Yan, he nodded weakly, "Okay, I believe it, isn't it okay for me to believe it? If you can come, my illness will be half cured. Lao San, take Xiao Jiang to live with your eldest sister-in-law and see the house she built."
