The doctor's lips twitched. This young man seemed quite shrewd, but somehow he seemed a bit naive.
"Young man, could you have your wife bring the medicine to the clinic? Don't worry, we won't take her medicine, we just want to take a look at it."
This hemostatic powder is a traditional Chinese medicine. He could identify some of the ingredients, but not all of them.
If he can see the powder, he might be able to mix it himself.
Lu Yuan didn't agree immediately. "I can't make a decision on this. I need to go back and ask my wife."
The old doctor looked up at him again, seemingly thinking that there weren't many men who couldn't be wives.
"Okay, ask your wife. We won't mistreat her."
The nurse who had previously urged Lu Yuandao to pay the bill happened to pass by and overheard their conversation. She then spoke to Lu Yuandao with an annoyance.
"It's a blessing for your wife that our Dr. Gao has taken a liking to your medicine, and you're acting all high and mighty."
Hey, this guy!
Are you sick?!
How is it considered being presumptuous for him to ask his wife's opinion?
Lu Yuan's face immediately darkened.
"If I were really going to play hard to get, I would have just refused. Why would I need to go back and ask my wife?"
The nurse's eyes widened in disdain. "A grown man like you needs to ask his wife about such a small thing? Are you a freeloader?"
Lu Yuan nodded readily, "Yes, he's a freeloader."
The nurse was taken aback, and seeing that he seemed to be serious, she rolled her eyes.
It's unbelievable that a grown man would talk about being a kept man so casually.
"To be proud of something instead of being ashamed, is he even a man?"
"Nurse Yu, please watch your words."
Dr. Gao's expression had already changed; Nurse Yu was becoming increasingly tactless in her speech.
Yu Fengjiao felt superior in front of Lu Yuan and said whatever she wanted. But she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Dr. Gao.
It's not just that they have good medical skills, but also a good background.
I heard that the reason he came from the big city to settle in their small commune was because he was looking for a woman.
I wonder which woman is so lucky to have Dr. Gao so obsessed with her.
"Dr. Gao, I just couldn't stand this person's evasiveness towards you, so I said a few words."
Gao Weishan didn't want to listen to her nonsense and waved her away.
"Alright, Nurse Yu, you can go back to your work."
Yu Fengjiao agreed, glared at Lu Yuan, and left unconvinced.
"I'm sorry, young man. I apologize on behalf of Nurse Yu. She was the one who offended you."
Lu Yuan waved his hand, "It's alright, I don't bother with petty people."
Gao Weishan laughed. This young man said he wouldn't hold it against him, but he didn't hold back with his words.
For some reason, he admired the young man quite a bit, and he didn't think the young man was living off a woman.
Saying he was asking for his wife's opinion was clearly a sign of respect for her.
A man who respects and loves his wife is definitely a good man.
He also noticed that the young man's features resembled those of his wife.
Looking at him, who appeared to be in his early twenties, if he weren't a young man, he would have suspected that he was his daughter who had been separated from him since birth.
Sigh, I shook my head and chuckled. It really has been a long time since I've seen my wife. Everyone I see looks like her.
They're completely obsessed.
However, this young man looks really friendly.
Lu Yuan told Sun Maodou to stay at the clinic while he and He Shenghua went back to the brigade.
Sun Maodou was unhappy, "Why should I be the one to stay?"
Lu Yuan replied matter-of-factly, "Because you don't have a wife."
Sun Maodou stared wide-eyed and pointed at He Shenghua, "He didn't have any either."
Lu Yuan glanced at He Shenghua. "He was an educated youth sent to the countryside."
The educated youth were outsiders, while Grandpa Liu and the others were all native villagers.
Sun Maodou readily accepted this reason.
He Shenghua turned his head to the side and suddenly felt that Sun's son, Maodou, was a bit dim-witted and too easy to fool.
After the two had been gone for a while, Sun Maodou finally realized what was happening.
Why should someone without a wife stay?
He became irritable.
"Lu Yuan, I'll fuck your grandpa."
Lu Yuan and He Shenghua returned to the village together, but neither of them spoke to the other.
Lu Yuan knew that this guy was eyeing his fake wife, and he felt contempt for him.
If a grown man really likes someone, he should just confess his feelings decisively. If it works out, they can be together; if not, then it's over.
What's with this unrequited love?
If you can't even protect someone, and you're always worried about this and that, you deserve to be single.
He Shenghua was even more indifferent to Lu Yuan, and didn't care whether he was a local hoodlum or not, it was none of their business.
He was very resentful that the best girl in the village had married such a good-for-nothing scoundrel, and he felt even more sorry for Wen Moxue.
He found everything about Lu Yuan disagreeable.
The two felt uncomfortable with each other and didn't speak to each other the whole way.
They all seem to be competing with each other.
If you're fast, I'm fast; if you're even faster, I'm even faster.
Finally, they all started running in perfect unison.
It seems that if someone falls behind, they have the illusion that they have lost everything.
Lu Yuan thought that both of them were actually quite naive.
But there's also a saying: A man is a boy until he dies!
There aren't many activities in the village usually, so I just spent some time with him.
The two of them kept running silently with their heads down.
After all, Lu Yuan grew up in the village and running all over the mountains and fields was a common occurrence for him.
Although He Shenghua had been in the village for several years, he was still a bit lacking in physical strength. He soon couldn't keep up.
But he kept gritting his teeth and persevering.
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow. This guy was certainly not likable, but his perseverance was not bad.
They quietly slowed their pace.
He Shenghua realized this and didn't want the other party to give in to him.
He gritted his teeth, accelerated again, and rushed forward like a 100-meter sprinter.
