"Auntie, please slow down. Let me guess who it is. Is it Comrade Huang Qiuxia?"
Looking at the flustered old lady in front of him, Yang Baiyi felt warm in his heart.
"How do you know?"
Before he said anything, Dr. Yang had already guessed who it was.
It seems that Doctor Yang is not only an excellent doctor, but also a fortune teller.
"She came to me today and wanted to move in with me, but I refused."
Yang Baiyi said with a smile.
"I was wondering, why would she say such bad things about you when she was fine? So there's this whole thing going on.
She was not stupid and knew that a blue brick house was more comfortable to live in than a mud house.
Just now she said that you were undermining socialism and stealing collective property in the mountains, and she also said that you and Comrade Lin Wanru lived together without getting married.
We didn't pamper her, we just gave her a good scolding on the spot, and she ran away in shame."
Li Xiu Lian said this proudly, her expression like a general who had won a battle.
"Thank you for speaking up for me, Auntie. You know me well. I always abide by the law and I recite the quotations of great men every day.
If I catch something big, I will definitely hand it in without hesitation. I caught a rabbit yesterday, and even if I handed it in, there would be no way to share it with so many people, right?
There is also the relationship between me and Comrade Lin Wanru. Although we are dating, we are still young and not yet of marriageable age.
Although we live under the same roof, we have always treated each other with respect.
I live in a room by myself, just like I live in a room with my sister, we are innocent."
Yang Baiyi explained to Li Xiulian.
"Doctor Yang, how can I not trust you? We don't believe a single word Huang Qiuxia said.
That lazy woman of hers was well-known in the village. She just didn't work before. She was a little arrogant, looked down on others, and didn't interact with others.
But now he actually started to gossip about his wife and said bad things about Dr. Yang behind his back.
"Doctor Yang, don't worry. No one believes what she said. You didn't see it just now. Several of us confronted her and made her lose face."
Li Xiu Lian had no doubt about Yang Baiyi's character.
Last time, Yang Baiyi saved her grandson Xiaobao and used so many medicines but only charged him fifty cents. She felt bad and gave him a few eggs, but he turned around and gave her a big fat rabbit in return.
"Okay, I won't keep you any longer. My work basket is still at the entrance of the village."
After revealing the news to Yang Baiyi and receiving Yang Baiyi's thanks, Li Xiu Lian left the infirmary contentedly.
"Wanru, don't take Huang Qiuxia's words to heart. Don't feel any psychological burden."
Yang Baiyi looked at Lin Wanru cautiously, fearing that she would get angry and move back to the educated youth compound.
"It's okay. I'm a decent person and I'm not afraid of her gossip. Don't worry, I won't abandon Xiao Xiao."
Lin Wanru didn't take it to heart at all. With Huang Qiuxia's reputation, it wouldn't cause her any trouble.
Lin Wanru tore open the letter from her parents and poured out various colorful bills and a remittance slip.
Lin Wanru casually placed the remittance slip and various bills on the table and couldn't wait to open the letter.
"Bai Yi, my father used your plaster and his cold legs were completely cured. He even asked me to express my gratitude to you."
Lin Wanru said excitedly.
"I don't deserve my father-in-law's gratitude. He is a war hero who has made great contributions to the country and the people. It is my honor to be able to help him."
This is not to make Lin Wanru happy. Soldiers have always been the objects of Yang Baiyi's admiration.
Yang Baiyi also opened the reply letter from her neighbor, Grandma Wang. The concern between the lines made Yang Baiyi feel the rare warmth after traveling through time.
When selling the house, Yang Baiyi's worries were not unnecessary. Grandma Wang said that a few days after Yang Baiyi went to the countryside, Liu Genhua came back with a cane.
When they found out that the people living in the yard were not Yang Baiyi and his sister, they immediately started making a big fuss.
Even when Grandma Wang showed her proof of buying the house, Liu Genhua still refused to give in.
Grandma Wang had four sons, three of whom were married. Grandma Wang didn't have to do anything, and the three daughters-in-law threw Liu Genhua out.
Liu Genhua called the police. After the police arrived, they looked at the house sale contract signed by Yang Baiyi and acknowledged the legality of the contract.
Liu Genhua couldn't fight back and couldn't win the lawsuit, so she fainted.
He lost his job, sold the yard, and took the pension to the countryside.
All the Yang family's wishes were dashed, and they lost their youngest son for unknown reasons.
I heard that Liu Genhua was so angry that she fell seriously ill and has not recovered yet.
Yang Baiyi closed the letter and breathed a long sigh of relief. The Yang family had brought this upon themselves, and Yang Baiyi had no sympathy for them at all.
After get off work, Yang Baiyi and Lin Wanru went back to the educated youth compound and handed everyone's letters to them.
The educated youth who received the letters from home were in a good mood and read them over and over again.
When I was in Los Angeles, I didn’t spend every day with my family, so I didn’t feel how precious family ties were.
After going to the countryside to work in the fields, away from my parents and relatives, I finally understood the true meaning of "a letter from home is worth a thousand pieces of gold."
In the next few days, Huang Qiuxia continued to criticize Yang Baiyi everywhere, but she received very little response.
Except for the families of a few second-rate guys, all the members of Chenjiatun have a good impression of Yang Baiyi.
The fifth girl's mother, Miao Guilan, followed Huang Qiuxia in doing some tricks for two days, but all she got in return was ridicule and sarcasm.
A woman who raised her son to be a second-rate person is despised by everyone in the village. How credible can her words be?
The weather was getting colder day by day. Yang Baiyi went up the mountain to hunt a few pheasants and rabbits, and took enough rice and flour from the space. He asked Yang Xiaoxiao to be obedient at home, and Yang Baiyi went to find the team leader to get a letter of introduction.
Naturally, there are a lot of warm clothes in his space, but he needs a reason to take them out. Yang Baiyi needs to go to the county town to get the cotton-padded clothes.
Yang Baiyi's reason was very sufficient. There was a shortage of doctors and medicines in the town, and he needed to go to the county pharmaceutical company to have a look.
Not only did Chen Baiwang not stop him, he was also moved to tears by Yang Baiyi's dedication.
After seeing Yang Baiyi off, Chen Baiwang continued to express his feelings to the brigade cadres.
Praise Yang Baiyi's dedication to his work and his compassionate heart as a doctor.
Yang Baiyi took a ox cart to the town and then boarded a train directly to the county town.
As the eldest son of the Republic, Northeast China has very developed heavy industry. In order to facilitate transportation, almost every town has a railway.
It was different from the last time. The last time he took the train to Hailin County, the carriage was full of educated youth. Except for the unpleasant smell due to summer, Yang Baiyi did not feel any other discomfort.
This time it was different. The carriage was very noisy, with children crying, chickens, ducks and geese calling, people smoking, drinking, singing Errenzhuan, and all kinds of things.
At noon, as soon as the train arrived at the station, Yang Baiyi, who had endured the whole journey, was the first to rush out of the carriage.
