Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless
Chapter 222: Starting a New Life
Chen Rufeng's father was a teacher in the village, and his mother was a virtuous housewife. His parents had high hopes for him, and taught him to read and write since he was young, hoping that he would one day pass the imperial examination and bring honor to the family. Chen Rufeng lived up to everyone's expectations, and was extremely smart since he was young. He could recite "The Analects" at the age of five, and could write poems at the age of ten. The villagers called him "the little prodigy."
However, Chen Rufeng was not satisfied with this, he had a greater ambition in his heart. He yearned for the outside world, and longed to leave this small mountain village one day to see the wonderful things outside. His friend Lin Dong was his confidant, and the two of them wandered in the mountains and forests of the village together, discussing dreams together, and fantasizing about the beauty of the future together.
Lin Dong is a cheerful boy. Although he comes from a poor family, he is full of enthusiasm for life. He and Chen Rufeng have been friends since childhood. They have experienced many childhood fun together and have a deep relationship. Lin Dong is not as smart as Chen Rufeng, but he has a spirit of never giving up and can always find a way out of difficult situations.
They also have a common friend named Liu Qingqing. Liu Qingqing is the only girl in the village who is educated. Her father is a doctor in the village and her mother died young. Liu Qingqing has been smart and beautiful since she was a child. She is the dream lover of many boys in the village. Chen Rufeng has a crush on her, but he has never had the courage to express his feelings. Lin Dong has always treated her like a sister.
The days passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, Chen Rufeng was fifteen years old. This year, his father decided to send him to the town to study, hoping that he could pass the examination and bring honor to the family. On the day of departure, everyone in the village came to see him off. Chen Rufeng was filled with mixed feelings, both excited and reluctant. His eyes stayed on Liu Qingqing, and he saw the tears in her eyes, and his heart was filled with sorrow.
Life in the town is very different from that in the village, and Chen Rufeng quickly adapted to the rhythm here. He performed well in the academy in the town and was praised by his teachers. However, he never forgot his friends and relatives in the village, especially Liu Qingqing's voice and smile, which often appeared in his dreams.
Three years later, Chen Rufeng passed the examination and returned home with honor. The villagers were overjoyed and held a grand celebration for him. However, he found that Liu Qingqing looked a little haggard and no longer had the spirit of the past. After asking around, he learned that Liu Qingqing's father died of illness, and the family lost its source of income. She could only make a living by doing needlework.
Chen Rufeng felt guilty and decided to help Liu Qingqing overcome her difficulties. He used the bonus he received from passing the imperial examination to help her open a small medicine shop. The villagers praised his benevolent act. Liu Qingqing was very grateful and her feelings for Chen Rufeng became deeper.
However, the good times did not last long. A big incident happened in the village. A group of robbers broke into the village, robbed property, burned, killed and looted. Chen Rufeng and Lin Dong fought hard, but they were outnumbered. Lin Dong was seriously injured in order to protect the villagers and fell in a pool of blood. Chen Rufeng was extremely worried and sent Lin Dong to the town's clinic overnight. The doctor said that the situation was not optimistic and that a large amount of silver was needed to treat him.
Chen Rufeng went around to raise money, but found that he had no money. He thought of borrowing money from Liu Qingqing, but Liu Qingqing's small medicine shop was not doing well and her savings were limited. Chen Rufeng was disheartened and watched his best friend's life in danger, but he could do nothing.
At this time, a mysterious wealthy businessman appeared and was willing to sponsor Lin Dong's treatment expenses, but there was a condition: Chen Rufeng must go to the capital to take the imperial examination. If he passed the examination, he must work for the wealthy businessman for three years. Chen Rufeng agreed to this condition without hesitation, and with his friend's hope, he embarked on the journey to the capital.
The prosperity of the capital city made Chen Rufeng dazzled, but he had only one goal in mind, that is, to obtain fame and save Lin Dong. He studied hard in the capital city and lived up to everyone's expectations. Finally, he ranked among the top in the imperial examination and became a Jinshi.
However, the rich businessman's request was not just to serve for three years. Chen Rufeng found himself caught in a huge conspiracy. The rich businessman was actually a powerful official in the court. He used Chen Rufeng's talent to seek personal gain. Chen Rufeng was indignant, but for the safety of his friends and family, he could only temporarily endure it.
In the mansion of the rich and powerful, Chen Rufeng met another woman named Su Wanqing. Su Wanqing was the rich and powerful's maid, smart and alert, and the two soon became close friends. Su Wanqing sympathized with Chen Rufeng's experience and was determined to help him out of his predicament.
With the help of Su Wanqing, Chen Rufeng secretly collected evidence and exposed the crimes of the powerful. The court was furious and brought the powerful to justice. Chen Rufeng finally regained his freedom and was extremely grateful to Su Wanqing for her help. However, he never forgot Liu Qingqing and Lin Dong in his heart.
After returning to the village, Chen Rufeng learned that Lin Dong's condition had stabilized, but he needed long-term recuperation. Liu Qingqing was still working hard to run the medicine shop, and her life was hard but fulfilling. Chen Rufeng felt mixed emotions, happy for his friend's recovery, but also guilty for not being able to be with them.
When Liu Qingqing saw Chen Rufeng's return, a glimmer of joy flashed across her eyes, but it quickly faded, replaced by a complex emotion. She knew Chen Rufeng's experience in the capital, and also knew about his friendship with Su Wanqing. She didn't want to be a burden to Chen Rufeng, and she didn't want to see him sacrifice his future for her.
However, Chen Rufeng had only one belief in his heart, that is, no matter what happened, he would protect his most cherished friends and lovers. He decided to stay in the village, accompany Liu Qingqing and Lin Dong, and start a new life.
In this quiet mountain village, Chen Rufeng used his talent and wisdom to help the villagers solve various difficulties. He and Lin Dong rebuilt their homes and made the village more beautiful. With his company, Liu Qingqing gradually walked out of the shadow of losing her father and regained hope in life.
As the days passed, Chen Rufeng and Liu Qingqing's feelings grew stronger day by day. They walked in the fields together, talked under the stars together, and watched over each other in the wind and rain together. Although life was not always smooth, they knew that as long as they depended on each other, no difficulties were insurmountable.
However, just when they thought they could live their lives in peace, a sudden accident broke the peace. Lin Dong's old injury relapsed and the situation was critical. Chen Rufeng fell into helplessness and anxiety again.
This time, Chen Rufeng decided not to rely on external forces, he wanted to use his own strength to treat his friend. He read a lot of medical books, looking for various treatment methods, and finally found a way to cure Lin Dong. Although this method was full of risks, Chen Rufeng chose to try it without hesitation.
