Shanglin Production Brigade

Many people saw Xiao Yu carrying Lin Yiyi back and couldn't help asking, "What happened to Daya?"

"He must have fainted from hunger. Daya is really pitiful. Her parents just passed away not long ago, and she still has five younger brothers to take care of."

"Young man, who are you? What's going on with this girl?"

Everyone was as thin as a stick, but the man carrying Daya on his back was tall and had bulging muscles in his arms, not like them at all. The other person had a sharp aura and a tough demeanor, which made the villagers a little worried.

Xiao Yu: "I am from Datang Production Team, and I am Daya's fiancé. I met Daya on the road, and she fainted after we talked for a few words, so I sent her back first. Please ask one of you to call a doctor, I will send her home first." Xiao Yu did not say that he saw Lin Yiyi fainted on the road and carried her back, but said that Lin Yiyi fainted after he met her, so that he could protect her reputation. If everyone knew that she had fainted on the road before Xiao Yu found her, everyone would make wild assumptions and spread rumors.

"You are from the Xiao family of Datang Production Brigade, right? Some time ago, the funeral of Daya's parents was handled by people from the Xiao family. They claimed to be Daya's future in-laws, and Daya didn't object."

Xiao Yu said, "Yes, Xiao Daqiang is my father and Qin Xiangju is my mother. Uncles and aunts, I will carry Daya home first. Please call a doctor to Daya's house."

"Hey, don't worry."

Almost all the people in Shanglin Production Brigade have the surname Lin. Although there are many people with the surname Lin, they are not related by blood. Maybe they have the same ancestor hundreds of years ago, but at least there is no such thing as a common ancestor now.

The doctor of Shanglin Production Brigade was not a regular doctor, nor was he a famous barefoot doctor of that era. The doctor was called Lin Zhengde. Before liberation, Lin Zhengde's father was a Chinese medicine doctor, and some people called him "doctor". Lin Zhengde studied medicine with his father. Later, his father passed away and the country was liberated. He asked everyone to call him "doctor". Even so, in the current situation where there may not be a doctor in every village, it was very rare for Shanglin Production Brigade to have such a doctor.

Xiao Yu carried Lin Yiyi on his back and followed his memory to find the Lin family. He saw several older boys sitting in the yard. When they saw Xiao Yu carrying Lin Yiyi back, they all surrounded him and asked, "What happened to my sister?"

"Is my sister sick?"

"Are you Brother Yu?"

Xiao Yu said, "Yes, it's me. You are the second army, right? I met your sister on the road. She suddenly fainted. I didn't know what happened, so I carried her back. I have asked someone to call a doctor. Where is her room?"

Lin Erjun immediately said, "Here, here." Then he led the way. Lin Erjun, the second son of the Lin family, is 13 years old this year and will be in the first grade of junior high school in September.

Lin Erjun pushed open the door: "Here."

Xiao Yu carried the people in and frowned when he saw the environment inside. This was a utility room, half of which was filled with firewood, and the rest was filled with a small bed, a box, a table, and a stool.

Xiao Yu put the person on the bed, and then took off the straw sandals on Lin Yiyi's feet. In an instant, what caught his eye were the feet with blood blisters. The feet had many scars and ulcers, but they were very white, and because of the white color, the injuries were very obvious. Xiao Yu pulled open the quilt and covered Lin Yiyi.

Lin Erjun stood at the door: "Brother Yu, did my sister...did she say anything?"

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows: "What should she say?" His dark sword-like eyebrows made people look a little scared, and his tone was cold and distant.

Lin Erjun thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "My sister...was there anything on her body before she fainted?"

Xiao Yu didn't understand what Lin Erjun meant. Just as he was about to ask, a voice came from outside: "The doctor is here... The doctor is here..."

Lin Zhengde walked into the room and saw a tall man standing inside. He didn't say anything because the door was open and Lin Erjun was standing at the door, so they were not alone.

Xiao Yu knew Lin Zhengde. Their Datang Production Team had no doctor, so they had to ask Lin Zhengde for help when they needed him. Compared with the skinny people outside the house, Lin Zhengde had some flesh on his body.

Xiao Yu moved back a little to make the room brighter, but no matter how far he moved back, this windowless storage room could not be brighter. The door was the only source of light.

After seeing Lin Yiyi's condition, Lin Zhengde said, "Let's not talk about malnutrition or anything like that. Everyone is like this nowadays. Her health is very poor. Let's boil some medicine for her to replenish her body." After a pause, he said, "If you have money, you can give her some ginseng slices to make tea." Let's not talk about the fact that a person with weak constitution cannot be replenished, how much can a few ginseng slices replenish?

Lin Erjun said, "There is no money at home to buy medicine. Uncle, will he wake up if he doesn't take the medicine?"

Lin Zhengde: "As long as she is not dead, she will definitely wake up. It depends on whether she will die in the coma."

Lin Erjun has a sore mouth.

Xiao Yu asked, "How much is the medicine you are dispensing?"

Lin Zhengde: "A dose of medicine costs five cents. Give her three doses for fifteen cents."

Xiao Yu reached into his trouser pocket and took out fifty cents: "Do you have the ginseng slices you mentioned?"

Lin Zhengde said, "Okay, just give me your fifty cents and I'll cut a few slices for you."

Xiao Yu: "Thank you, I'll go with you to get the medicine."

Lin Zhengde nodded.

As soon as Xiao Yu and Lin Zhengde went out, Lin Erjun immediately walked to the bed, then lifted the quilt and began to search for Lin Yiyi's clothes.

"Is there? Have you found it?" Lin Dajun also ran into the house. He and Lin Erjun are twins.

Lin Erjun: "Didn't you see I was still looking?"

The two brothers felt Lin Yiyi's clothes and trousers and searched her pockets, but found nothing.

Lin Dajun: "Could it be that Brother Yu took it?"

Lin Erjun thought for a moment and said, "It's possible."

Lin Dajun: "What if he doesn't admit it?"

Lin Erjun said: "Let's ask him when he comes back."

Xiao Yu came back very quickly. When he came back, he saw several boys from the Lin family standing at Lin Yiyi's door. He said, "Erjun, this is your sister's medicine. Go and boil it. There are also some ginseng slices. Wait for your sister to wake up and make tea for her."

Lin Erjun took the medicine bag and asked after a moment's hesitation, "Brother Yu, when you... when you carried my sister here, did you see the money on her?"

Xiao Yu was puzzled: "Your sister's money? I didn't see it, what's going on?"

Lin Erjun said: "Dajun and I are going to start junior high school in a few days. There is no money at home. My sister said she has a way. She went to prepare money today. I... I didn't see any money on her just now, so I wanted to ask..." In Xiao Yu's increasingly gloomy eyes, Lin Erjun was a little scared and dared not to speak.

Lin Dajun hurriedly said, "Brother Yu, don't misunderstand me. We are not saying that you took my sister's money. We just want to ask if you saw it."

Xiao Yu walked into the room and saw that the girl's clothes were undressed and her trouser pockets were turned out. He was originally calm and suddenly felt angry. When he left just now, the little girl was still covered with a quilt. Now he knew what was going on: "Did you search her body?"

Lin Erjun said nothing, and Lin Dajun said, "We were afraid that the elder sister might have lost her money, so we went to look for it."

Xiao Yu frowned and said in a deep voice, "You have grown up. Even if she is your biological sister, she is still a girl. Is it okay for you to search her like this? And if you unbutton her clothes, won't you button them up again? If a stranger comes in and sees her like this, will her reputation still be ruined?"

Lin Erjun remained silent, and Lin Dajun also stopped talking.

Xiao Yu looked at the unbuttoned clothes and frowned even more. Although there was a vest underneath and her chest was flat, but... Xiao Yu looked away and then covered it with the quilt again. He said to Lin Erjun, "Go boil medicine for your sister."

Lin Erjun uttered an "oh" and ran into the kitchen. After a while, he ran out again: "Brother Yu, there is no pot or water at home. We can't boil the medicine."

Xiao Yu walked into the kitchen and saw how unkempt it was. There were two empty holes on the stove, where the iron pot was placed before, but the iron pot was taken away because of the steelmaking. The cupboard was open, and there was no food inside. There was no water in the water tank. Thinking back to when he came back with the little girl on his back, several half-grown boys were sitting in the yard. Xiao Yu's brows were about to be knotted. He asked, "Is there a cart at home?" There was no need to ask, he saw the cart in this room.

So, he carried Lin Yiyi to the cart with the quilt attached, and reached out to Lin Erjun: "Medicine."

Lin Erjun hurriedly gave him the medicine.

Xiao Yu took the medicine and said, "Your sister will stay at my house for the next few days. You can take care of the house by yourselves."

Lin Erjun's eyes turned: "Brother Yu, can we go to your house?"

Xiao Yu glanced at him calmly and said, "No." Then he pulled the cart away.

Datang Production Brigade.

There was a famine and food production was low, so even eating became a problem. In order to save energy, no one even went to work, so apart from looking for food, everyone stayed at home and did nothing.

When Xiao Yu arrived home with the cart, there was no one in the Xiao family except the old lady. Seeing Xiao Yu coming back, Grandma Xiao was stunned until Xiao Yu called her grandma twice, and then she came back to her senses: "Xiao Yu'er, Xiao Yu'er you are back... ah, grandma's Xiao Yu is back..."

Xiao Yu'er is Xiao Yu's nickname, which is derived from his real name.
