Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder is Very Leisurely
Chapter 25 The Young Educated Youth 02
On their way home from work, a group of educated youth walked back together. Everyone was very curious about Yu Nuan's medical skills.
"Li Yunuan, who did you learn that from? It's amazing! Brother Wang woke up in just two quick movements." She gestured with her hands as she spoke, which immediately made everyone laugh.
"That's right, I didn't know you had such good medical skills before."
"I learned it from an elder in my family, an old man. I learned a little bit because I was interested when I was young. He saw that I had some talent, so he gave me this set of acupuncture needles," Yu Nuan said vaguely. The original owner of this body had not learned it, but there was indeed an elder in her family who was an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
After hearing Yu Nuan's words, no one had much doubt.
When they returned to the educated youth dormitory, they saw a little boy standing at the entrance of the compound holding a pheasant. Upon seeing Yu Nuan, he handed her a basket and said, "This is a thank-you gift from my mother." Then he turned to leave.
Upon hearing this, Yu Nuan quickly grabbed the pheasant and, seeing the pheasant inside, wanted to return it.
"Go back and tell your mother that she has already thanked you. Keep this to help your father recover."
But Wang Qiang, Wang Zhuzi's eldest son, refused to take it no matter what, and broke free from Yu Nuan and ran away.
Yu Nuan wanted to return it to Wang Zhuzi and his wife, but she didn't know where they lived. Yu Nuan had only been here for a short time and didn't know much about the village. She turned to ask Li Yu, the older brother among the educated youth.
"Brother Li, do you know where Brother Wang lives? This gift is too much; I have to return it."
The others stared longingly at the chicken in Yu Nuan's hand. They hadn't smelled meat in a long time, but they knew that Wang Zhuzi had worked hard to earn it.
“I know, his home is on the edge of the village, a bit far from our educated youth compound. How about this, you guys go back and cook first, I'll go with Yu Nuan.”
Li Yu was among the first group of educated youth to arrive, and she was older than everyone else. She took good care of everyone in the educated youth compound.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Li."
"It's okay, let's go!"
Yu Nuan and Li Yu arrived at Wang Zhuzi's house and were warmly received by Wang Zhuzi and his wife. After learning the purpose of Yu Nuan's visit, they refused to take the items back no matter what.
“Li Zhiqing, you have helped my family so much today. We are poor and have nothing to thank you for. My husband is good enough to know a little about hunting. You won’t even accept this small token of your appreciation. How can your sister-in-law face people in the future?”
"That's right, Li Zhiqing, listen to your sister-in-law and take it. Qiangzi's mother was taking care of me, so she asked Qiangzi to deliver it. I didn't expect you to make the trip."
Wang Zhuzi also tried to persuade her from the side. In the end, Yu Nuan, still confused, took it, feeling that it would be a sin not to.
Back at the youth center, everyone had already prepared dinner and was waiting for the two of them to eat together.
Seeing the basket Yu Nuan was carrying for releasing pheasants, everyone looked at her expectantly. Yu Nuan was startled by the number of people staring at her. However, after realizing the reason, she chuckled and handed the basket over.
"We're giving everyone an extra meal today."
"Oh! Finally, I can taste meat."
"Exactly, I've been eating vegetarian for months, and my mouth is so bland."
Everyone cheered and got to work together, some boiling water, some plucking feathers, all filled with energy at the thought of eating meat soon.
Seeing everyone's enthusiastic atmosphere, Yu Nuan was also infected by it. Only after arriving in this era did Yu Nuan realize how scarce resources were. Every day, she ate corn porridge and coarse grain steamed buns. At first, Yu Nuan couldn't swallow them at all, and since she was living with everyone, she couldn't cook for herself.
While everyone was busy, Yu Nuan went back inside to look for something suitable to give to Wang Zhuzi's family. After seeing the poor life of Wang Zhuzi's family, Yu Nuan felt even more embarrassed to take things for free and thought of ways to make amends.
Yu Nuan found some food she had collected in her past life in her spatial dimension, unwrapped it, put it in her cabinet, and went out to help.
Feeling embarrassed to take advantage of Yu Nuan, everyone brought out their treasured food, including meat sauce and flour from home, as well as mushrooms they had picked and dried themselves. The abundance of food was comparable to that of Chinese New Year.
Before the meal, everyone exclaimed, "It's been so long since we've had such a lavish meal. We're only doing this because of Li Yunuan."
"That's right, even during the Lunar New Year we didn't have this much food." After saying that, he started eating the food.
During the meal, everyone was so engrossed in eating that they barely had time to talk. The girls, thankfully, managed to maintain some semblance of decorum. Yu Nuan was also caught up in the atmosphere and ate quite a bit.
The next day, after finishing work, Yu Nuan took a bag of pastries and some candy for children to Wang Zhuzi's house, dropped them off, and left, afraid that Wang's wife wouldn't accept them.
There isn't much work to do in the fields right now. Yu Nuan and the others were assigned to weed the corn. They work under the scorching sun every day, which is both tiring and hot.
Yu Nuan lived with everyone and didn't dare to make any major changes, only taking a health-strengthening pill for herself. Having never suffered before, Yu Nuan couldn't endure this any longer.
It's 73 now, and there are still four years until the college entrance examination is reinstated. Yu Nuan finds the thought terrifying. But there's nothing she can do; she has no other options but to wait for the college entrance examination to be reinstated so she can take the exam again.
But sometimes surprises come so suddenly. After work that day, the village chief came looking for Yu Nuan.
"Li Zhiqing, do you have time?"
"I've got it. Village Chief, did you need something from me?"
"Well, Dr. Wang from our village is going to the town hospital. There are no doctors in the village now. Everyone has seen your medical skills, so the village committee has decided to let you work at the village clinic. You don't need to go to work tomorrow."
"Should I still live in the educated youth compound? Village chief, do you see any empty houses in the village?"
Yu Nuan had long wanted to move out on her own, and it would be even better if she could take this opportunity to do so. She would be working at the village clinic and wouldn't have to go to work, but she was worried about causing any unnecessary trouble.
Although the educated youth in the educated youth compound seem to be doing well now and there are no major conflicts, people's hearts are unpredictable.
"Yes, there are empty rooms in the health center, but no one has lived there for several years. It might be worrying for a girl like you to live there alone."
“It’s alright, village chief, don’t worry about me. Besides, the educated youth compound is a bit far from the clinic, and it’s troublesome for me to go back and forth every day.”
It took a lot of persuasion from Yu Nuan to finally get the village chief to agree. After returning to the house, everyone asked Yu Nuan what the village chief wanted to see her about.
Yu Nuan told everyone about her job at the clinic and received their congratulations. However, some people were envious and jealous, but they also knew that they didn't know any medical skills and couldn't do the job anyway.
Yu Nuan returned to the dormitory and told everyone that she was moving to the clinic. There were only four girls in the dormitory for educated youth. Wu Xianya was the oldest and took care of everyone like an older sister. Li Xiaoni was more introverted and shy, while Zhang Nana was the kind of girl who was more outgoing. After Yu Nuan came, everyone got along well and expressed their reluctance when they heard that Yu Nuan was leaving.
Wu Yaxian, who often spends time with Yu Nuan, expressed concern about Yu Nuan moving out, saying, "Yu Nuan, are you sure you can live alone? Maybe you shouldn't move."
"It's alright, Ya-xian. There are other people living around the clinic, so you don't need to worry about me."
"Okay, then be careful."
"That's right, you need to be careful. Lock the door at night and don't come out."
The other three offered words of advice to Yu Nuan, who felt a sense of warmth at that moment.
"Okay, I know! You can come visit me if you have time, and I'll come back often."
