The Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Man

After Zhang Xiaozi gave Grandpa the acupuncture and gave him the egg, he followed Ning Changshou back to the educated youth camp. Grandpa could actually give himself the acupuncture.

It's just that he didn't have any tools. When he came down, everything on him was searched, and he could only take simple bedding, old clothes and a little food.

On the way back, Zhang Xiaozi told Ning Changshou about what happened at home.

Anyway, Comrade Ning Changshou also knows about her relationship with Grandpa, so it doesn't matter if he knows more. Anyway, she is already in a bad mood after being discovered.

Ning Changshou thought that the grandfather and grandson were quite impressive. However, the book did not describe Zhang Xiaozi, the educated youth, in detail. It only mentioned that Zhang Xiaozi had no news after returning to the city in 1978.

I think Zhang Xiaozi was the only one who returned to the city at that time.

Ning Changshou really felt that it would be a pity if this old man, who was so powerful, died here.

········

After they left, the old men in the cowshed also said a few words. They had lived together for more than a year, and they had gotten to know each other well, and they would help each other out.

They still have a good impression of the villager Ning Changshou.

Zhang Xianzheng was a master of traditional Chinese medicine with a family tradition of learning. Unfortunately, his only son died young, leaving only one bloodline in their family, his granddaughter.

As there was only one granddaughter in the family, Zhang Xianzheng naturally taught her everything he could. The two of them could live well wherever they were.

But it is not appropriate in this era. Zhang Xiaozi never revealed that she knew Chinese medicine in the educated youth center.

I just know some herbs, and after working in the fields, I occasionally go to the mountains to pick some herbs. I save them up and sell them in town for some money.

Since that night, Ning Changshou and Zhang Xiaozi started to meet more frequently.

On the back mountain of the Ningjia Village Brigade, Zhang Xiaozi, who was collecting herbs on the mountain with a basket on his back, saw Ning Changshou digging a wild ginseng with a small hoe.

This was the third time they met in the mountains this month. Every time they met Ning Changshou, he dug up precious medicinal herbs.

Last time it was a hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, the time before that it was a bunch of Gastrodia elata, and this time it was ginseng. Every time she went up the mountain to collect herbs, most of what she dug were ordinary herbs.

Seeing Ning Changshou's good luck, Zhang Xiaozi felt that this was a very lucky herbalist. She didn't feel jealous, but helped to dig it up while introducing it to Ning Changshou:

"You are so lucky. But this ginseng is very delicate. The more intact it is, the higher the price. You'd better dig out the soil little by little with your hands..."

Ning Changshou didn't expect that this skinny kid didn't get jealous after seeing him dig up ginseng. If she said that everyone who saw it could have a share, maybe he would give him half.

This guy's life is so miserable, yet he still has the mind to give him advice.

After going down the mountain for a while, there was no news of him digging ginseng in the village. Ning Changshou was relieved about this thin little girl.

In fact, this little girl has a good character. Although she is a little thin and dark, her facial features are good. If she is raised, she should be a beautiful girl.

He didn't have anyone he liked, but judging by the character of the mission target, he probably hoped that he could get married and have children in this life.

His parents only had him, so they must have hoped that he could continue their bloodline. If they found a doctor as their daughter-in-law, they would probably be very happy.

With the mentality of raising a daughter-in-law, Ning Changshou began to secretly treat the little girl well. He even asked his uncle to bring the old man to the clinic for help.

The health workers in the village only use some simple pills and bandages to clean the wounds, and their skills are quite crude. This old man is a good Chinese medicine doctor, and he can treat many diseases.

They can also go to the mountains to collect herbs, which is beneficial to the villagers. With this old man to see a doctor, they don’t have to go to the hospital for treatment and don’t have to spend much money.

Even though his identity was somewhat problematic, they still accepted him.

Although he still lived in the cowshed, he changed from heavy work to seeing patients. Villagers in the village didn't get sick every day, so the old man's workload was reduced.

Ning Changshou often followed Zhang Xiaozi up the mountain when she went up the mountain to collect herbs, and by the way, he also led people to places where rare medicinal herbs were found.

Zhang Xiaozi's income also increased. The life of the grandfather and grandson became better, and their complexions looked much better than before. A year later, the little girl gradually grew up and looked like a little beauty.

Zhang Xiaozi was not unaware of how good Ning Changshou had been to her over the past year.

It's just that she is too unconfident in herself.

Ning Changshou has a good family background and is also an elementary school teacher. She is tall, handsome, and modest. As for her, she depends on her grandfather for life, and her status is not good.

Looking at her dark and thin appearance in the mirror, Zhang Xiaozi felt that she was like an ugly duckling in front of Ning Changshou.

Zhang Xiaozi felt that this person was kind to her purely out of sympathy for her situation and had no other thoughts about her. How could the white swan like the ugly duckling?

After recovering a little, Zhang Xiaozi looked at the girl in the mirror again. Although she was thin, she had a pretty look.

Thinking of how good that man had been to her, Zhang Xiaozi finally plucked up the courage to ask him.

"Comrade Ning Changshou, why are you so nice to me?"

After Zhang Xiaozi finished speaking, she felt her heart almost jump out of her chest. She nervously grasped her sleeves and lowered her head, not daring to look up at him.

Grandpa was able to work at the clinic and she had more harvests from collecting herbs, all because of the man in front of her.

Looking at the nervous little quail in front of him, Ning Changshou smiled and said, "Isn't my intention obvious enough? I have a purpose for being nice to you... I don't know if Zhang Xiaozi is unwilling to date me."

Ning Changshou was somewhat interested in this girl at first, but was later moved by her qualities. This girl was quite stubborn and had a lot of personality charm.

The girl is nineteen years old this year and looks a little rounder.

The skin became fairer, and the facial features became more prominent as the face became fuller.

Although Zhang Xiaozi's family conditions were not as good as Tian Qing's, nor was she as pretty as Zhang Qingqing, she was very capable, earning ten work points a day, and could also collect medicinal herbs to supplement herself.

After growing up, some young men in the village and the male educated youth in the educated youth center also had some thoughts. Zhang Xiaozi was a bit quiet, but he had a good reputation here.

There are many women in the village who want her to be their daughter-in-law. Ning Changshou feels that it is time to express his feelings. If he doesn't break this window paper,

I'm afraid this little girl is about to be abducted by someone else.

"Is what you said true?"

Zhang Xiaozi couldn't believe it.

She originally thought that Ning Changshou was nice to her out of pity and sympathy, but she didn't expect that he actually liked her.

Zhang Xiaozi's eyes widened in surprise, and this look also made Ning Changshou laugh out loud.

Ning Changshou smiled and said, "Really."

Then his expression became more serious again.

"Comrade Zhang Xiaozi, are you willing to date me with the intention of getting married?"

Zhang Xiaozi had no time to be shy. Seeing the serious look of the man in front of her, she felt both sour and sweet in her heart. She mustered up her courage and nodded seriously: "I do."

She had always had a crush on Ning Changshou, but she had always felt inferior to him. But since he had chosen her, Zhang Xiaozi was unwilling to let go.
