Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 194 Love?

"Luo Yang, Luo Yang, the police are looking for you."

The shouting coming from outside made the aunt and sister-in-law, who were washing dishes, stop what they were doing at the same time and turned to look at each other in surprise and suspicion.

The shouting also attracted several other households living in the same courtyard to come out of their houses.

Luo Yang, who was talking to the old man and his brother-in-law in the house, of course also heard it, but he only heard someone calling him and did not hear the rest of the words. He walked out with a puzzled look on his face. Just as he was about to ask his wife who was calling him outside and what they were doing, he saw two people walking in from the courtyard gate one after the other, followed by a lot of onlookers.

The two people who came in were both wearing green top and blue bottom police uniforms and police hats.

The appearance of the two caused other people in the courtyard to whisper to each other. They wondered if Luo Yang had done something wrong and why the police came to his door.

Luo Yang, standing at the door of his house, was just about to ask his wife a question when he saw someone walking in from the gate out of the corner of his eye. He immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and turned to look over.

This sight made his eyeballs almost pop out of their sockets and fall to the ground.

"Bang..."

Of course, the two women washing dishes at the sink also saw someone coming in. When they saw clearly who came in, the things in their hands fell directly into the sink. Fortunately, they were using enamel bowls, so they were not afraid of falling.

"Who's looking for you, Yangzi?" At this time, Mr. Luo also lifted the door curtain and walked out.

When he spoke, Luo Yang, who was stunned, came back to his senses.

He grinned, opened his arms and walked quickly towards the two police officers who had already walked into the yard.

"Hahaha... Shit... I was wondering why someone would come here to look for me. Why is it you two? When did you get here? This is the first time I see Yan Cheng wearing a police uniform. Don't mention it. Hey, he looks really energetic..."

This guy talks a lot. Even though he has opened his arms to hug Su Xiaotong and Li Yancheng and patted them on the back, his mouth is still chattering. He is diverting his attention by talking, trying hard to control the tears in his eyes from falling because of being too excited to see his brothers.

"Uncle Luo, Auntie, long time no see. Are you two in good health?"

After breaking free from Luo Yang's arms, Su Xiaotong hurriedly took a few steps forward and walked up to Mr. Luo and the old lady who had just come out of the house with a smile on her face to greet them.

"I'm fine, Su boy. Why are you here? Are your parents okay?"

……

"Yancheng, what's going on? When did you get here?"

"I went to Anshi to meet someone. I got off the car at around 10 o'clock last night. I finished what I needed to do. Xiaotong said that since I was here, I had to come and see you, so I asked the Qin Provincial Bureau to help me."

Seeing that Su Xiaotong was reminiscing about the past with the old man and the old lady, Li Yancheng did not rush over to disturb them and started talking to Luo Yang. He also did not forget to wave to Sun Yiqing and Luo Ting, who were still a little surprised, as a greeting.

The people who had originally wanted to join in the fun saw that the police who came were good friends of the Luo family, and they immediately became bored and dispersed.

"Thank you and Yangzi for sending the food coupons."

"You're welcome. I can't help you with anything else."

"Oh, that really helped a lot."

"Luo Yang, it's boring to talk about this."

"Okay, let's not talk about it then."

Seeing that Su Xiaotong and the two elders of the Luo family had almost finished their greetings, Li Yancheng patted Luo Yang's arm and said, "Please introduce me to your grandfather. Your uncle hasn't met me yet."

"Ah good!"

After some greetings and formalities, they entered the Luo family's current home together.

……

Li Yancheng and Su Xiaotong did not stay long at the Luo family because they had to go to work at two o'clock and could not take leave.

"Doctor Li"

Seeing that they were about to leave, Luo Ting handed her little daughter to her sister-in-law Sun Yiqing and stopped Li Yancheng who was about to get in the car.

"what happened?"

"Doctor Li, please persuade Xiao Min. She has a stubborn personality."

"Okay, I'll try my best." Li Yancheng nodded with a smile.

What to advise Luo Min?
Of course, I advised her to stop being stubborn and leave the countryside to go back to Beijing to work.

Luo Yang's mother also asked him to help persuade her just now.

It’s not that the daughter of the Luo family is precious and cannot suffer in the countryside, but the day before yesterday, Sunday, Luo Yang went there again to deliver food coupons to his sister, and happened to meet the son of the production brigade leader who was courting Luo Min at the educated youth site.

After his repeated questioning, Luo Min told him what was going on.

If it were in the past, Luo Yang might have slapped that captain's son in the face, but now he had to bow his head under someone else's eaves, so he suppressed his anger.

Because he knew very well that he did not have the ability to settle the matter now, and this was also the captain's territory.

If he dares to do anything, his sister will be the only one who suffers in the end.

Li Yancheng was very generous just now. In front of the two elders of the Luo family, he said directly that he would go to see Luo Min later and asked them if they needed to bring anything else.

That's why everyone in the Luo family hoped that he could help persuade them.

……

"Yancheng, I saw that Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo both supported you and Luo Min being together. What do you think?"

After the car drove onto the main road, Su Xiaotong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and looked at Li Yancheng who was sitting in the back seat and asked.

What do you think?

Haha, Li Yancheng smiled bitterly in his heart.

He didn't know what he was thinking either.

There is definitely nothing wrong with being tempted by beauty.

Especially after he hugged Luo Min on the day of the kidnapping, that wonderful touch would often linger in his mind.

But love...

Suddenly, the situation when he was young in his previous life emerged in his mind.

There was love at that time, but in the end, they separated because of practical problems, and they even had a child.

In his previous life, the real problem he and his ex-wife faced was not whether they had money or not, but their respective ideals.

His ex-wife is the typical heroine and strong woman who always puts work first. When family life and work collide, she will definitely throw family aside.

The final point of conflict between the two was that his ex-wife planned to go to the south to start her own business, and hoped that he could quit his job and go with her, using his financial expertise to help.

He thought that he could start a business locally so that he could help out in his spare time, but quitting his job and moving south was definitely not an option. He didn't have the courage to take the risk, nor could he leave his son who was in junior high school at the time.

The two people each had their own ideas, one was more radical, the other was seeking stability. There was no right or wrong, but no one could convince the other. In the end, his ex-wife took all the family savings and went south to Shenzhen, while he stayed in Anshi to work and take care of the children.
This separation lasted for more than a year before the two met for the first time. No one said anything, no quarrels, no accusations, and no shirking of responsibility. They just went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their divorce certificate.

At that time, she couldn't be said to have been successful in her business, but she could only say that she was making some progress. She wanted to give him compensation because she took all the money from the family with her when she started her business. He refused to take it, as he had just been promoted to the leader of a team in the financial department of their unit.

In the 2000s, he was very satisfied with his life in Anshi, a second-tier city, with a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan, a car and a house.

After that, the two parted ways. Except for his son occasionally flying to Shenzhen to see his mother during holidays, he never had any contact with his ex-wife again.

All we know is that the design company she founded was later acquired by a company listed on Hong Kong Island in the form of shares and cash, and she became a director of the new company. It is said that she is worth a lot of money.

Everything that happened in his previous life flashed through his mind like a passing scene.

Love? Who can tell me what the hell love is?

call……

Li Yancheng exhaled lightly, his eyes fell on Su Xiaotong's face: "I'll have a good chat with her later."

"Well, remember to complete the task that Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo gave you just now."

"Remember it. I'm not old enough to be confused. How could I forget it so easily?"

Su Xiaotong’s mission was to persuade Luo Min.

……

What is Luo Min doing now?
At this moment, she wanted to cover the mouths of these aunties in the village with mud.

Because there were too few educated youth, the Guaixi Brigade where she worked did not allocate special educated youth fields to them. She worked together with the other team members. Now it was the slack season for farming, and apart from watering and weeding, there was not much other work to do. There was basically nothing to do in the afternoon.

After returning from the fields at noon, she sat with four other educated youth at the gate of the courtyard where they lived, doing needlework and chatting idly.

There was a hole in the back of her pants, and she asked someone for a piece of rag to patch it up.

Her needlework skills were not very good to begin with. After mending for a long time, she had wasted a lot of thread and still hadn't finished. Some old ladies in the village saw them sitting there and came over.

They came over just to get together, but they came with a mission from the captain's wife, which was to persuade Luo Min to agree to date the captain's son.

Several aunties kept persuading Luo Min, who had already spent half a day mending the hole, even more annoyed.

How should I put it? Her experience of living in No. 20, Meishan East Hutong did change her a lot.

If this situation happened in the past, she would definitely not say a word and would just get up and leave with a sullen face. But now she has changed a lot. Even though she is extremely impatient, there is still a faint smile on her face.

"Aunt Zhao, haven't I told you all this? I've also told Aunt Cao about this, why don't you believe me? I really have a partner."

"Okay, my silly girl, where is the guy you're talking about? He's in Beijing, more than a thousand kilometers away from here. When do you think you can return to the city? Do you think he can wait for you?"

"He'll wait for me."

"Silly girl, don't lie to yourself. Your whole family is in our county, and it's impossible for you to go back to Beijing. How can you two succeed?
It's the slack season for farmers now, so there's not much work to do in the fields. When the fields start to get busy in May, do you think you, a delicate city kid, can handle it?

Dajun is now a commune cadre and eats commercial grain. If you follow him, in the future, Dajun's father will help you find a way to get you commercial grain, which is better than digging for food in the fields."

Eating commercial grain may be the most anticipated thing for rural people in this era and for a long time in the future.

For today's rural people, there is only one way to eat commercial grain, and that is to go to the city to work.

Rural people living on the outskirts of the city have a high chance of being recruited for work.

But the Guaixi Brigade where Luo Min is now is more than 20 kilometers away from the county seat, and there is a river in between. It is simply impossible for the farmers here to wait to be recruited into the city.

Cao Dajun, the eldest son of their team leader, is the only one of his kind.

Not only in their brigade, but also in other brigades under their commune, countless families with girls of marriageable age wanted to marry their daughters to Cao Dajun.

But she just fell in love with this educated youth, which is really a pity.

But this educated youth looked down on the team leader's son. Haha, I wonder how many people are now laughing at the joke of Team Leader Cao's family in Guaixi Team.

Luo Min is not stupid. She knows that if this situation continues, she will be the one in trouble.

But if she was asked to solve the problem, she couldn't think of any good solution.

The current situation at home was of no help. The gloomy and helpless look on her brother Luo Yang's face when he left her the day before yesterday after finding out about it made her realize that she could only solve these problems by herself. Relying on her family would only cause trouble for the family.

Now I don’t dare to make trouble at home anymore.

After staying here for more than two months, she understood one thing: don't treat these team leaders as less than cadres, because they have the final say here.

But marrying Cao Dajun, a man who made her feel a little nauseous just by looking at him?
She swore she couldn't do it.

Just as Luo Min was about to say something in response to Aunt Zhao's expectant gaze, a sudden noise came from the village entrance about a hundred meters away.

Several people sitting at the entrance of the educated youth center looked up and saw a military green jeep driving towards them, followed by a group of boys and girls from the village who had not yet started school.

Cars are not common in their rural areas. There are hundreds of households in their brigade, but there are only two bicycles. The entire commune has several brigades and tens of thousands of people, but there is only one jeep.

Although there is a car, the commune leaders only ride in it when they go to the county for meetings. They never ride in it at other times. It’s not that the leaders don’t want to ride in it, but there is not enough oil for them to burn.

The sound of the car engine attracted most of the people in the village to come out. The team leader who lived diagonally opposite the educated youth dormitory also came out of the house. He looked at the jeep approaching from afar, with a look of doubt on his face.

He saw that this was not the commune's car, could it be from the county? But he hadn't heard that the county leader would come today.

Seeing the car getting closer and slower, he knocked the pipe in his hand against the sole of his shoe to knock off the ash, then put the pipe behind his waist and hurried to meet the car.

Several other cadres from the brigade who lived in the village went up to greet them together with him.

The jeep stopped quickly. When the passenger door and the rear door opened and two men in police uniforms got out of the car, Captain Cao paused and then rushed forward at a faster speed.

As for the children who were running after the car, they had been stopped by their parents.

Looking at Luo Min, from where she was sitting she could only see people getting in and out of the passenger seat.

When she saw who that person was, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

After rubbing her eyes, she looked over again. Nothing had changed. It was still Su Xiaotong. She then opened her eyes wide, her mouth half open, and stood up with a look of surprise on her face. She didn't even notice that the pants she was mending on her legs had fallen to the ground.

Her abnormal reaction was also noticed by the people sitting with her.

Another educated youth sitting next to her touched her hand curiously: "Xiao Min, what's wrong with you? Do you know this person?"

Before Luo Min could answer her, Su Xiaotong had already looked over here.

Seeing Luo Min's surprised expression, he smiled and raised his arm to wave over here, then turned to Li Yancheng who was coming down from the back row and said, "Look at Luo Min, does he look like he saw a ghost?"

As he turned around and talked to the person behind him, Luo Min noticed that there was someone behind him. She thought it was her brother and did not bother to explain anything to her friends beside her. She was about to step forward when she saw the person behind her walk up to Su Xiaotong.

And that person was not her brother Luo Yang, but... the person who made her dream about him.

Seeing Luo Min was about to come over but stopped again, with an even more surprised look on his face, Li Yancheng also raised his hand and waved with a smile.

"What are you doing? We came all the way here from thousands of kilometers to see you, and you're just going to stand there and stare blankly?"

These words finally brought Luo Min back to her senses, but also brought out her tears.

At this moment, Su Xiaotong was no longer in her eyes, only the person she missed day and night.

She raised her hand to wipe the tears that were sliding down her face, then walked over, very firmly. She walked the first two steps, then she ran.

As an experienced person, Su Xiaotong could tell at a glance that the girl had no eyes for him at all at this moment, so he turned around and looked elsewhere very consciously.

The driver from the provincial bureau who drove over also walked up to Captain Cao and the village cadres who came to greet them. After listening to Captain Cao's self-introduction, he took out his work ID and handed it over.

For the people below, those from Beijing are not as useful as those from the province.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away.

"Captain Cao, it's alright. We're here for personal reasons, not official business. Luo Min, the educated youth who joined the production team here, is the girlfriend of our colleague. We're here to handle a case and take a look at her.

If you don't come over, someone here will use his power to poach our colleague's lover."

Just now, the driver had heard the general idea of ​​the matter along the way, and he also knew that the captain wanted Luo Min to be his daughter-in-law, so he said it directly right away.
