Time Travel: Volume 1! Starting from a Small Mountain Village

Long Lifan declined the captain's invitation and left with Jiang Nian'an and Hu Lili, remembering that their baskets were still on the mountain! But in this day and age, probably no one would take them anymore.

"Thankfully, they're all still here!"

Seeing that the baskets were still there, the three of them were relieved. It was almost time to finish work, and if they lost their things, they would have to make a new basket.

Although Long Lifan has left, her legend continues to circulate among the villagers. Many people didn't witness her saving Qi's mother, so many don't believe it.

But today they witnessed Long Zhiqing perform a series of actions on the child and revive him. It's only because the "Destroy the Four Olds" campaign prohibits talking about feudal superstitions that they would have truly regarded Long Zhiqing as a reincarnated deity.

"Brother, you didn't see it, Sister Long was talking to Little Shuanzi..."

At the Qi family home, Qi Fangfang was talking incessantly to her brother and mother about what had happened that afternoon, leaving them both shocked. Seemingly having made a decision, Qi Shishen went to the back mountain alone that night after his sisters had gone to sleep.

Inside the educated youth settlement, everyone was looking at Long Lifan with envy. After all, Long Lifan had saved the brigade leader's grandson; how could they not think of her for any good things to come?

Although they had all attended high school, they were still very curious about the methods Long Lifan used to save people that afternoon. It was Yang Qianqian, who was standing nearby, who explained the situation to everyone, and only then did they understand the reason.

"Yang, the educated youth, studied medicine!"

Listening to her explanation, Long Lifan couldn't help but ask curiously. You see, she had seen many rescue videos about mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and chest compressions in her later years. She could do it herself, but when it came to explaining the principles, she was really at a loss.

"Yes!" Yang Qianqian nodded. "I learned a little bit from Grandpa when I was bored before."

"Cousin, I heard from Uncle that you've learned about 70-80% of his medical skills. I'm not exaggerating, but my cousin's medical skills are far beyond what ordinary people can match," Yang Lijuan proudly recounted her cousin's past achievements, making Yang Qianqian blush.

Her dream was to become a doctor who could heal the sick and save lives. She thought she could pursue her dream after graduating from high school, but in the end she was forced to go to the countryside.

Long Lifan hadn't expected that Yang Qianqian, who seemed so quiet, would be so talented in medicine.

“Young Master Yang, I brought some books, including many on medicine. If you want to read them, I can lend them to you!” Long Lifan took the initiative to express her goodwill. She was going to stay here for several more years, and if she ever had a headache or fever in the future, she would have to ask someone for help.

"Wouldn't this be a bit inappropriate!" Yang Qianqian is relatively introverted and quiet, but she has a strong personality and rarely bothers others.

"It's fine, the book is useless anyway!" Long Lifan waved her hand dismissively, the words of the brigade leader from that day echoing in her mind: the village lacks a doctor, and this is a ready-made one!

She believes that after this afternoon's events and the rescue, the captain will definitely bring it up again.

She only knows some common first aid knowledge. Asking her to treat patients would be like killing her. Besides, she is very satisfied with her current job of cutting pig feed. She enjoys a relaxed and comfortable life every day.

The next day

When Long Lifan arrived at the brigade headquarters, still half asleep, the people around her looked at her with much more kindness, and they kept greeting her.

"Long Zhiqing, wait a minute, I have something to tell you!"

Just as Long Lifan was about to leave, the brigade leader's voice came from behind. Jiang Nian'an and Hu Lili exchanged a glance and said, "Then let's go first, Long Qingqing, to the same place as yesterday!"

"Little Long, this is something I prepared for you. I hope you'll accept it." The brigade leader grinned and handed over a basket of eggs.

"We're just country folk, we don't have anything good to offer, please don't take offense!"

"No, no, no, Captain, didn't I already say? We can keep this egg to nourish the child, so I don't need it!"

“It’s alright, we still have some at home. Her grandma specially went to the neighbor’s house to exchange them.” Nowadays, each family raises no more than three chickens. Even so, many people still save up their eggs to exchange for daily necessities at the commune. In the end, they are still poor.

"Alright, then I'll accept it!" Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Long Lifan accepted it with a wry smile.

"Long Zhiqing, wait a minute, I have something to do!"

Seeing that Long Lifan was about to leave, the brigade leader solemnly said, "Actually, the reason I kept you here is to talk to you about making you the village doctor."

"Don't worry, we, the brigade cadres, have discussed it and agreed that as long as you become our village doctor, we will not only give you 150 work points every month, but also an extra 5 yuan subsidy."

She gets 150 work points a month, plus an extra 5 yuan. To be honest, given the current situation in Dongwan Brigade, the amount she receives is somewhat beyond her expectations.

But she really doesn't know how to treat illnesses. It seems that even if I say it now, not only will the brigade leader not believe me, but I myself don't seem to believe it either!

“Captain, I know someone whose medical skills are very good, at least much better than mine.” Now that things had come to this, Long Lifan had no choice but to bring up Yang Zhiqing.

"who!"

"Yang Qianqian, a fellow educated youth who came in the same batch as me!"

"Yang Zhiqing..." The brigade leader searched his memory for this person, but seemed to have no recollection of her at all. "She can do it!"

“She’s definitely capable, much better than me!” Noticing the captain’s puzzled expression, Long Lifan knew that the captain probably couldn’t remember such a person.

There was nothing she could do; Yang, the educated youth, was usually so quiet that everyone had almost forgotten she existed. If it weren't for her talking about medical matters yesterday, Long Lifan would have completely forgotten about her.

"Then go back and talk to her today, and see if she's willing!" After Long Lifan's rejection, the brigade leader was also afraid that this educated youth Yang wouldn't come.

Moreover, in his heart, Long Zhiqing was the best candidate, after all, he had personally witnessed her abilities.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely work on Yang Zhiqing when I get back. After all, we went to the countryside to build up the village, so she'll definitely agree!" Long Lifan said righteously, which made the brigade leader next to her roll his eyes.

He couldn't help but think to himself, "You make it sound so nice, but why haven't you actually agreed?"

However, he forced a smile and said, "If that's really the case, that would be wonderful. If it turns out that Yang Zhiqing's medical skills are indeed amazing, our Dongwan Brigade will definitely be grateful to you!"

"You're too kind, Captain!" Long Lifan suddenly remembered that she also couldn't get up this morning, so she casually said, "Speaking of which, I do have a small matter I'd like to discuss with you, Captain!"

"What is it!"

"Captain, look, our tasks were all set a long time ago. Could we please not come to the brigade headquarters every day?"

"Instead of wasting this time, we might as well set off earlier and complete the mission better and faster!"

Lin Guodong knew immediately what Long Lifan was thinking; she clearly wanted to sleep in. But this was the first time he'd ever seen someone make being lazy sound so righteous.

"I'll discuss this with the other cadres," Lin Guodong replied after a moment's thought, frowning. "On the condition that you resolve the village doctor's issue!"

"No problem, leave it to me!" Long Lifan was very happy to receive a positive reply. For the sake of getting enough sleep in the future, she would bring Yang Zhiqing here even if it meant tying her up.

Of course, this was a joke. With the temptation of 150 centimeters plus 5 yuan, she believed that Yang Qianqian had no reason to refuse.
