Chapter 195 The 1970s Educated Youth Are a Bit Arrogant
After spending half a pound of grain, he had the things delivered to the village office of Yishui Village.
I heard that the village chief is still recuperating at home, and only the accountant is in charge of the village.
"I'm sorry, Lin Zhiqing. Because the village chief is ill, we haven't received your exact arrival time, so we haven't arranged for anyone to pick you up."
"However, the village chief has already arranged your next accommodation. I will take you there right away."
The accountant was a shrewd uncle, about 40 years old.
After reading Lin Wanwan's letter of introduction, he took her to the Youth League Home with the materials.
The Youth League Home was not big, and consisted of old houses left over from the former landlords.
There are quite a few rooms, but there are already several female educated youth inside.
There are 6 people living in the house that Lin Wanwan was assigned to, and 7 in total including her.
There was a large bunk bed with 7 people sleeping from the head to the foot of the kang. Lin Wanwan felt a headache just thinking about it.
"Accountant Qian, do we have any individual houses for rent here?"
"Look, there are already six people living in this room. If I were to come in, it would be so crowded that there wouldn't even be room for a blanket."
Lin Wanwan frowned and looked at the situation in the house. How could she live like this?
She had no shortage of money, tickets, or supplies, so why should she squeeze with other educated youth?
"There are a few empty houses in the village, but there are quite a few bachelors in our village. It might not be convenient for a little girl like you to live alone."
"Besides, the houses in our village are all private and have their own courtyards and walls. If you want to rent one, you can only rent the entire courtyard."
"Without two dollars a month, it's simply not possible."
Accountant Qian naturally knew that the Youth League compound was already full, and even the decision to add one more person to this room was made after the old village chief discussed it with the female Youth League members for a long time.
When they first talked about adding more educated youth, the female ones made a big fuss.
The place we live in is already crowded enough, there is really no room for one more person.
But knowing this is one thing, the village will not build any more houses for these educated youth.
They didn't even dare to arrange the educated youth to places other than the educated youth home.
You know, a few years ago, there were several villages where female educated youth were harmed by villagers.
Those incidents were a big deal, and I heard that those villagers didn't end up well.
In the neighboring village of Houshantou, it was heard that a bachelor had forced a female educated youth to marry him.
As a result, the female educated youth's family was powerful and they directly arrested the bachelor's family and threw them all into jail.
Later, the female educated youth was transferred away, but the village also offended the higher authorities.
Their village is never included in the selection of advanced collectives.
Whenever something good happens, it is never their village’s turn.
For this, the villagers hated that family to death.
But what can we do?
If you are wrong, you are wrong, and no matter who you are, you must pay for your mistakes.
In order to prevent such incidents from happening, the old village chief strictly prohibited single men in the village from harassing female educated youth.
If anyone dares to show such signs, the village chief will use severe measures to make life difficult for that family.
Under the high pressure of the village chief, the village has always been very peaceful. The educated youth and the villagers are clearly separated, and no major incidents have occurred.
"To be honest with Accountant Qian, I have been practicing martial arts with my grandfather since I was a child. My skills are so good that three or five big men are no match for me."
"You'd better rent me a yard. I can still afford two dollars a month."
"Look, the Youth Hostel is already so crowded. There's really no way to live here."
"Besides, I studied medicine with my grandmother. I can go to the village chief's house and help out. Maybe I can be of some help?"
Accountant Qian originally thought that Lin Wanwan was just an ordinary female educated youth, who, like other newcomers, could not recognize crops and food, and could not even lift anything.
Without a month or two of training, you won't be able to do any work at all.
Unexpectedly, he is good at both kung fu and medicine.
Regardless of whether his skills are good or not, his ability to diagnose illnesses immediately made Accountant Qian change his mind.
"So Lin Zhiqing can treat illnesses? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Come with me now, let's go see the village chief first."
"The village chief was bitten by a snake while digging a ditch two days ago. His entire leg is numb and he can't even walk."
"I went to the town and they said I was poisoned by a snake and needed serum. I don't know whether it's serum or not.
"Although I prescribed some antidotes, they didn't help at all. I don't have the conditions to go to a bigger city. Since you have the ability, come with me and take a look."
Accountant Qian wanted to pull Lin Wanwan over, but because of the difference between men and women, he didn't dare.
He had no choice but to pick up the luggage that Lin Wanwan had thrown on the ground and lead the way out.
When Lin Wanwan saw that the other party had taken away all the luggage, she knew that she had already decided to rent the yard, so she immediately picked up the remaining things and followed.
The two soon arrived at the village chief's house.
The village chief's yard is not much better than that of other villagers. Most of the scenery in the yard can be seen from outside the low wall.
"Lao Li, Lao Li, I've brought the doctor with me!"
"Old Li, our village finally has a capable person. This Lin Zhiqing is a doctor. Let's have her take a look first. Is there a cure for our illness?"
Accountant Qian had a loud voice and kept shouting as he walked in.
The village chief's wife had been at home taking care of her husband. When she heard the sound, she immediately opened the door and let the two in.
Accountant Qian put the things in the yard, and Lin Wanwan also put the things in her hand together with the two packages.
The two of them quickly entered the house.
"Auntie, could you please open the window? It's so hot, it's best to ventilate more."
"Whether it's poisoning or illness, more ventilation can help the air circulate and the virus evaporate quickly, making it less likely to accumulate in the house and helping people recover faster."
After hearing Lin Wanwan's words, the village chief's wife immediately opened all the front and rear windows.
He didn't even bother to pour water and just lay down in front of the bed.
"This is snake venom, but I happen to have an antidote here."
Lin Wanwan has a lot of medicines that can cure all kinds of poisons. Not to mention snake venom, she can even cure more difficult poisons.
"Auntie, pour me a glass of water. The village chief can't even speak. Let's give him the antidote first. We can deal with the rest after he wakes up."
What Lin Wanwan said didn't make sense, but the village chief's wife and Accountant Qian agreed with her.
The two of them watched eagerly as Lin Wanwan stuffed a black pill the size of a soybean into the village chief's mouth and then gave him a large bowl of water.
Less than 5 minutes later, the village chief responded.
He slowly opened his eyes, then moved his hands and patted his face.
He bent his legs that were lying flat on the kang and moved them slowly.
"Is my poison cured?"
"Didn't we say that once the serum arrives, we should go to town to get it? How come my illness has healed before we even get to town?"
The village chief had just woken up and was in a daze, not knowing what had happened.
