Chapter 218: The Educated Youth of the 1970s is a Little Arrogant

After a few more days, all the grain in Yishui Village was stored in the warehouse, waiting to be paid as public grain.

The grain harvest in Yishui Village was faster this year, so the village chief always had a smile on his face and was cheerful when he met everyone.

This day.

Lin Wanwan had just returned from Houshantou Village and planned to go to the town.

Lin Jianhua's cough has completely healed, but Wang Aiying has a problem with her health.

I heard that there is an old lady in the town who is particularly good at making dog-skin plasters. Villagers nearby who have back pain go to her to buy the plasters.

Of course, now we can’t say we bought it, we can only say we exchanged it.

Lin Wanwan followed the address given by her aunt and found the home of the old lady who sold ointments.

When I knocked on the door at first, the other party didn't admit it.

It was not until Lin Wanwan mentioned the name of the aunt from the village that the old lady welcomed her in.

"Don't blame me, little girl. These days, doing business will get you arrested and criticized. I just didn't recognize you because you looked unfamiliar."

"Can you tell me what kind of plaster you want to buy? I have some for rheumatism, general back and leg pain, and injuries..."

The old lady took Lin Wanwan into a room filled with a strong smell of medicine.

After the old lady opened the drawer and took out a dozen plasters, Lin Wanwan took a look.

"I want all these plasters. I wonder how grandma is selling them...for exchange!"

He blurted out the word "sell" but the old lady didn't care and looked at Lin Wanwan carefully.

"Why did you buy so much? This plaster will lose its effectiveness after two years. The longer it's kept, the less effective it will be."

"It's never too late to buy it whenever you need it."

The old lady advised earnestly, if you take a dozen of each, how long will it take to use them all?

"I want to send some to my friends back home. Don't worry, grandma, I won't betray you!"

"Besides, I only send a little bit to each household, so no one will notice it."

Lin Wanwan planned to send some to a few of her friends. This plaster has such a good reputation in the village, it must be effective.

How much can my parents use?

I will send some to my friends and ask them to give them to their elders at home.

"I see. Then take it yourself!"

The old lady brought out all the plasters and let Lin Wanwan choose one herself.

Lin Wanwan didn't hesitate and took a bundle of each plaster.

There are about forty pieces in this bundle, but Lin Wanwan still thinks it’s not enough!

Her space has a special ability, and the ointment placed in it will not lose its efficacy.

I originally wanted to stock up a little more, but unfortunately grandma didn’t do much, and now she has almost drained all our family savings.

"If you want all of these, just give me 30 yuan!"

The old lady calculated carefully and then gave a price.

Although this price is a little higher than what the villagers said.

But Lin Wanwan felt that these plasters were definitely beyond the price.

So I paid the money readily and agreed to buy another one at the end of the year.

Then he took his things and walked out of the old lady's house.

As soon as he came out, he bumped into a man coming towards him.

"Hiss~"

Caught off guard, Lin Wanwan stumbled back a few steps and bumped into the door frame.

"Comrade, are you alright?"

A pair of long arms reached out and grabbed Lin Wanwan.

Then he saluted her with an apologetic look on his face.

"Sorry, comrade. I'm so sorry to have bumped into you. I'm wondering if you're okay. Do you need me to take you to the infirmary?"

It was not until now that Lin Wanwan saw clearly that the person who hit her was a glorious soldier.

The other person was wearing a military uniform and was full of righteousness. He looked like a good person.

"I'm fine. I just got bumped. It hurts a bit, but the skin isn't broken, so I don't need to go to the infirmary."

"Comrade, you're here to see Grandma, right? She's inside, come in!"

After Lin Wanwan finished speaking, she walked around the man and moved forward.

Her bicycle was parked on the side of the road in front. She had borrowed money from her accountant to pay for it. If she lost it, she would have a hard time explaining herself when she got back.

"Since everything is alright, I'll go in!"

"Goodbye, comrade!"

As the man spoke, he turned and walked into the yard.

"Grandma, do you have any plasters at home?"

Hearing the sound in the yard, Lin Wanwan quickened her pace, pushed her bicycle and rode out.

nonsense.

The soldier came here to buy ointment. If she didn't leave quickly, he might try to steal the ointment she bought.

She had finally bought some ointment and didn't want to share it.

Grandma only has this much in stock, and it's obvious that making these plasters is quite troublesome.

She didn't want to let out.

Time flies and winter soon comes.

With the help of Grandma Feng, all the windows in Lin Wanwan's yard have been sealed.

The village chief also came over to ask if Lin Wanwan wanted to go back to the city to visit her relatives.

Originally, Lin Wanwan, who came here for the first year, was not eligible to go home to visit her family.

However, she has a good relationship with the villagers, and is especially close to the village chief and Accountant Qian.

The main reason is that she has the meat, and the two families can often get some benefits from it.

Especially the younger ones, they can all get along well with Lin Wanwan.

So the village chief specially approved her to go back to the city to visit her relatives. Other people in the village had no objection, and the educated youth in the educated youth home would not say much either.

Lin Wanwan has already agreed that she will go back home for the Chinese New Year this year, so she has to prepare winter supplies for her parents in advance.

A lot of straw was used in the cowshed to fill all the gaps. Lin Wanwan also sent a lot of straw and firewood to her parents through Tang Xiaotian.

Without saying too much, at least the corner where the couple lived was warmer than where other people lived.

Then Lin Wanwan bought a few old quilts and sent them over. In addition, the food was better, so she asked Tang Xiaotian to send some food over from time to time.

There should be no problem for the two of them to get through this winter.

Since she has decided to return to Beijing, Lin Wanwan has to prepare more for her parents.

Like hot water bottles, thick cotton jackets, furs and so on.

I guess it’s cold in winter, so those bad-hearted people in the village won’t hang around in the cowshed.

What's more, she also left a lot of things with Tang Xiaotian. If the things at her parents' place really couldn't be kept, Tang Xiaotian could still help secretly.

The reason why Lin Wanwan wanted to return to Beijing was because she wanted to go back and see if the person who had harmed her parents was still there.

If she were still there, she would have to avenge the original owner.

Lin Jianhua was obviously a patriotic businessman who donated money and supplies. However, because of their instigation, he was demoted to the remote Houshantou Village.

If Lin Wanwan hadn't arrived in time, my parents might have been unable to bear it...

Lin Wanwan didn’t dare to think about the rest, but this revenge had to be avenged.

Ever since the news spread that Lin Wanwan was going home to visit her relatives, the friendly families in the village sent some local specialties.

One family took a basket, and another family took a bag, and soon they had accumulated two large sacks of supplies.

Lin Wanwan planned to take these things away. Otherwise, if she left them here, people would probably miss them when she was not at home.
