"Did she...did the second son's wife really say that?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Jingqiu was first shocked, then sighed heavily, unable to speak.
Shi Minghui explained, "Comrade Ye, you may not know this, but the second son and his wife have been married for five years."
"Up until today, my second son's wife had no signs of pregnancy. The couple had even gone to the town hospital for a check-up, but no problems were found. They had taken a lot of medicine, but she still couldn't get pregnant."
“Our family doesn’t want to put too much pressure on the second son and his wife, but we can’t stop the villagers from gossiping and thinking that the second son’s wife has a health problem and can’t have children.”
"I think the second son's wife must have overheard other people's gossip while she was at work, which is why she started to take it to heart."
After hearing Shi Minghui's explanation, Ye Nian'an was no longer so angry.
It was her understanding of the brigade leader's family that made her less malicious than Li Dahong, who blamed Zhang Weiguo's infertility on her and made her the scapegoat.
Otherwise, even if I need someone's help this time, I should still have a proper talk with them.
Why do people think that a woman has no value if she can't have children?
Moreover, even the woman herself felt it was a sin, held a grudge, and punished herself.
Can't it be a man's problem?
Can't you just take things easy and be more carefree?
Ye Nian'an was angry, but she also knew that she had been reborn and had suddenly realized her mistake, which gave her the courage to do so.
For women in this era, making such a change is incredibly difficult...
Fortunately, the Shi family was quite open-minded and did not blame Zhang Meili alone. Instead, they had both of them go to the hospital for checkups.
Now that she's pregnant, everyone is naturally overjoyed.
Afterwards, in order to let Shi Juncai and Zhang Meili get some rest, everyone went outside.
Shi Minghui then realized, "By the way, Comrade Ye, what a coincidence that you're here?"
"Captain, it's like this..."
Ye Nian'an told Shi Minghui about her idea of applying to become a barefoot doctor in the village.
"Oh, Comrade Ye, to be honest, this has been a huge help!"
“There’s only one barefoot doctor in our village. He’s old and can’t even heal himself. He often goes to the hospital in town and is rarely in the village.”
"Whenever someone falls ill, it's truly a case of praying to Buddha or Grandpa but finding no one to treat them. Your medical skills are so amazing! Okay! I'll write you a letter of recommendation right away!"
Hearing Shi Minghui say that, Ye Nian'an finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She came to talk to Shi Minghui about this matter, thinking it might not be so easy to resolve.
It just so happened that the village was short of barefoot doctors, and with Shi Minghui's wife having an accident, he witnessed Ye Nian'an's medical skills.
The matter was then resolved naturally.
"Brother Yan, bring the things over here."
"good."
Chu Yan brought over the things he intended to give to Shi Minghui.
Upon seeing this, Shi Minghui immediately waved his hand and said, "This...this is unacceptable! Why did you send these things over?"
“One thing at a time, Captain. I know there are quite a few people eyeing the barefoot doctor job in the village, so I’d appreciate it if you could help us out.”
After all, being a barefoot doctor is much easier than working in a factory, and you can even get paid. Isn't that wonderful?
Anyone with even a little medical knowledge would be vying for this position.
They are as popular and respected as teachers.
Just as Shi Minghui was about to speak, Shi Juncai suddenly rushed out from the inner room and knelt down in front of Ye Nian'an with a thud.
"Comrade Ye, you have done me such a great favor! I, Shi Juncai, will never forget it! I am so grateful to you this time! Otherwise, I don't know what might have happened to my wife, and I wouldn't be alive either!"
"Hey, hey, get up, get up quickly."
Ye Nian'an quickly helped Shi Juncai up.
"Yes, Comrade Ye, you are a great benefactor to our Shi family. We not only cannot accept this, but we also have to compensate you with something else."
"Old woman."
Shi Minghui urged her on, and Wu Jingqiu quickly went into the inner room, took out dried wild boar meat, and a basket of eggs.
"These are wild boars that the village organized to hunt up the mountain and damage our crops. The meat that our family got was dried and we haven't eaten it yet. We're giving it to you as a thank you gift."
"No, Captain, this is..."
Ye Nian'an wanted to politely decline, but Shi Minghui suddenly straightened his face and said, "Although our family lives frugally, we are definitely not ungrateful people."
"Comrade Ye, if you still want this letter of recommendation from me, then accept these and take back what you brought with you!"
"You saved my daughter-in-law and grandson's lives. If I accept anything from you again, wouldn't people laugh at us? If word gets out, how will our Shi family ever face anyone again?"
Shi Gandang chimed in, "Yes, Sister Nian'an, please take these things. That way, our whole family will feel at ease."
"this……"
Seeing Shi Minghui's resolute expression, Ye Nian'an was at a loss for words and could only look at Chu Yan.
Seeing his wife's radiant appearance, Chu Yan had been so engrossed in watching her that he hadn't said a word. Only now, seeing the pleading look in her eyes, did he finally speak.
"Niannian, since the captain and the others have said so, then accept it."
"Yes, yes, Comrade Ye, listen to Comrade Chu Yan and accept it. As for the letter of recommendation, I will write it myself and send it to you tomorrow."
"Furthermore, I will apply for a 'Heroic Act' certificate for you! It will be awarded as a commendation at the brigade level!"
Ye Nian'an's eyes lit up after hearing this.
This is a huge gain!
Although the Chu family was wronged, their social class is indeed problematic now.
Earning more awards and certificates will definitely provide a guarantee for future life.
Worried that Ye Nian'an would refuse to accept the gifts, Shi Minghui quickly had Shi Gandang take the items and see them off.
With a smile on his face, Shi Gandang carried the things and led Ye Nian'an and the others out of the Shi family home.
"Uh...it's over just like that?"
Ye Nian'an blinked, a little confused.
Chu Yan's deep, indulgent voice rang out: "What else do you want, my wife?"
As he spoke, his long, strong fingers gripped Ye Nian'an's hand tightly.
Ye Nian'an smiled and leaned against Chu Yan's strong shoulder like a little bird: "Never mind, anyway, we achieved our goal and gained a lot of good things."
"It saved two lives, so it was worth it."
"Niannian, the way you saved people today was truly captivating..."
Chu Yan lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze filled with undisguised admiration and adoration.
Ye Nian'an is usually gentle and graceful, bright and beautiful, with skin as white as snow, just like a piece of mutton fat jade.
Just looking at her makes one want to hold her carefully in their arms, gently caress her, and imprint every inch of her beauty into their heart...
