Upon hearing this, Li Dafu learned that everyone at the educated youth settlement had stomach problems because the food was not clean.
He almost choked to death with a puff of smoke.
These city folks who always talk about being particular are actually less particular than him.
He went to take a look and saw them lying exhausted on the bed. Li Dafu frowned and said, "There's a barefoot doctor in the village. Why don't you let him take a look at you?"
Xu Youwen was the first to object. He looked down on country people and thought that city people were superior. Who knew what level that barefoot doctor was at?
"No, we'll figure it out ourselves."
His gaze fell on Shi Lingheng, who was in much better condition, and he said, "Lingheng, you're feeling better now. Could you please go to the county town and buy some antidiarrheal medicine?"
As for Shi Lingheng's condition being better than everyone else's, no one doubted it much, since Shi Lingheng's physical condition has always been the envy of others.
Yu Qing instinctively wanted to speak up to stop him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his stomach rumbled. Without saying a word, he ran to the outhouse again.
Shi Lingheng hesitated, "It takes two hours to walk to the small county town, and I'm still feeling a bit unwell..."
Li Dafu felt that these educated youths were really causing trouble. Their village's barefoot doctor was incredibly skilled; he could cure this kind of diarrhea with just one dose of medicine. But these self-proclaimed delicate city people insisted on going to the small county town to buy medicine, acting as if they didn't trust people more than them. It was really annoying.
But as the village chief, he couldn't just stand by and watch them get into trouble, so he said impatiently, "We'll go in Old Niu's oxcart later."
Under Xu Youwen's repeated urging, Shi Lingheng had no choice but to agree. By the time Yu Qing finally finished relieving himself in the outhouse, Shi Lingheng was already on his way to the county town in an oxcart.
Yu Qing, already pale and exhausted from diarrhea, looked even more gloomy as he looked at Xu Youwen in a cold voice: "Be cleaner when you cook in the future."
She comforted herself, thinking it would only be a short while, and that Shi Lingheng was only here for the first time, so what could he possibly do?
Shi Lingheng sat on the oxcart, and apart from being a little pale, he seemed to be fine.
Grandpa Niu curled his lip; he also disliked these educated youths who were all talk and no action, and he didn't speak to Shi Lingheng the entire way.
Shi Lingheng was a patient after all, so it would have been strange if he had been talking non-stop the whole way. He only asked a few questions occasionally, and he wasn't the talkative type, so he remained awkwardly silent the entire time.
Grandpa Niu hummed a village song in a good mood. He was in a good mood because his daughter had recently told him that his son-in-law had found a job that was much better than his previous one.
It's all thanks to Xiao Fan...
Thinking of the well-behaved little girl, Grandpa Niu couldn't help but mutter, "I wonder how Xiao Fan is doing in the city?"
Shi Lingheng had sharp ears; he had stayed in the village for a few days and knew that Grandpa Niu's daughter was named Niu Xiaohua. However, he had also heard of Xiao Fan's name before; she was quite a curious person.
After all, he had heard that she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, yet she was so skilled at repairing tractors and had even improved some parts. When no one was looking, he secretly glanced at the tractor and noticed that it had some slight modifications compared to the models currently on the market...
Shi Lingheng's first impression of Fan Xiaofan was that she was a genius girl.
He has read many books and knows a lot, so he naturally understands reverence. He knows that it is extremely difficult to make even the slightest improvement to a machine.
