Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

"No, Third Uncle, are you kidding me? Lin Chuqiao? Lin Chuqiao from Yanjing, is she coming to our house?"

Not to mention Wang Defa and Zhang Jingyang were a little confused, even Li Xiangnan was a little confused!

When he returned to Hongshan from Yanjing with his grandmother, Jiang Qitao, Wang Defa, Zhang Jingyang and Zhang Zhisheng, Lin Chuqiao and her second brother and third sister came to the train station to see him off!

It's only been a few days and she's already come to Hongshan?

What is she doing in Hongshan?

How could he appear in Lijia Village?

Why Lijia Village?

Still living in your own home?

What's going on?

She came to her own home to celebrate the New Year?

Is she alone or what?

At this moment, Li Xiangnan was full of doubts when he heard the news. He really didn't know how to ask his third uncle what was going on!

"Uncle San, is it because the New Year is coming soon? Are you trying to play a joke on us? Today is not some foreign holiday like April Fools' Day! Today is the real Little New Year's Day in the south!"

Wang Defa naturally didn't believe it. He knew better than Li Xiangnan what Lin Chuqiao's appearance here meant.

He thought that Lin Chuqiao went to Li Xiangnan's house to cause trouble at the wedding!

Everyone in Yanjing knew that Li Xiangnan was about to bring people from the Li family to the Qin family to propose marriage!

Why did she come at this time instead of earlier? It was obvious what Lin Chuqiao was here for!

Wang Defa had already guessed from countless clues that Lin Chuqiao still had feelings for Li Xiangnan.

He believed that Lin Chuqiao must be afraid that Li Xiangnan would eventually marry Qin Ruobai, so she came to Lijia Village in Hongshan County to make a final struggle!

He told Li Fuqin this to finally confirm that Lin Chuqiao was living in Li's house. Is this news true?

"Hey, little fatty, I'm sorry to disappoint you. This is not a joke, it's true!" Li Fuqin said seriously.

"But Uncle San, why did Lin Chuqiao live in your house? Why did she come to Hongshan County?" Zhang Jingyang knew the other party's identity and was also confused.

The old Li family was counting the days. The three of them were called out by Li's mother to avoid the limelight of the villagers' goodwill. Going back to celebrate the New Year would be a big reunion. Everyone would definitely discuss the matter of going to the Qin family to propose marriage.

It’s not a good thing for Lin Chuqiao to appear here at this time!

Li Xiangnan turned his head and looked at his third uncle steadily.

"It's a major experimental project led by the National Planning Commission to study schistosomiasis. The project team includes professors and students from Peking Union Medical College and the University of Science and Technology, as well as special staff from the National Planning Commission. There are a total of 21 people, and Lin Chuqiao is one of them! I heard from Brother Fugen that the people in the commune specially arranged for Lin Chuqiao to live in our house in order to take care of her because she was a former educated youth in the brigade!"

After hearing this explanation, Wang Defa and Zhang Jingyang calmed down a little.

But Li Xiangnan caught some information.

Schistosomiasis?

When he suddenly heard this information, he suddenly felt a little familiar.

I remember that when Lin Chuqiao came to the Image Building to look for me, she had specifically asked about the history of the outbreak of schistosomiasis...

Did she know at that time that she would be sent to Hongshan County?

So she had been hiding it from me?

amount……

Is this girl afraid that I would disagree if I knew?

Li Xiangnan didn't know, but his attention was soon diverted by two other pieces of information.

Peking Union Medical College?

National Planning Commission?

A project research in which top medical institutions in China such as Peking Union Medical College participate?

It seems to be quite famous!

State Planning Commission? State Planning Commission?

Tsk, this title has a bigger origin.

But he was still confused and reserved about the project team coming to Lijia Village.

You know, schistosomiasis has always been a deep-rooted major health problem in my country's vast rural areas. Eradicating schistosomiasis was a serious political issue even in the 1960s.

Large-scale outbreaks of schistosomiasis occurred in the Yangtze River Basin and the thirteen provinces to the south, but after concentrated diagnosis and treatment in the 1960s, the situation was suppressed.

From a national perspective, Hongshan County is actually not a key disaster area!

Li Xiangnan knew this history, so he was a little confused about why the project team came to Hongshan County.

"Then why did they come to Hongshan County?" Li Xiangnan asked.

"Xiangnan, I'm not sure either!" Li Fuqin scratched his head.

Li Xiangnan narrowed his eyes, waved his hand, and pulled Zhang Jingyang into the car. "Okay, Uncle San, let's hurry back! Try to get back to the village before dusk!"

……

And at this time.

The project team, which has been in Lijia Village for several days, also had lunch today.

Lin Chuqiao, who had just returned from the mountains, went back to the Li family and carefully put the collected stream snail samples into bags in the yard, preparing to send them to the simple laboratory built in the brigade headquarters after dinner.

While washing her hands, she saw Li Dingxi hiding behind the pillars of the porch and looking at her, so she smiled and waved, "Dingxi, come here!"

"Sister Chu Qiao!" Li Dingxi called out timidly, his hands twisted at his sides, and he walked over awkwardly, his eyes full of envy and curiosity towards this big sister from the city.

Lin Chuqiao smiled, took off the red hairpin on her hairpin, and gently put it on Li Dingxi's head. She adjusted it with a smile and exclaimed: "Wow, Dingxi looks so beautiful in this, I'll give it to you!"

"Ah... Sister Chu Qiao... It's too expensive. I don't want it. My sister will say that I..."

"It's not expensive, it's what my sister bought with her meal ticket! Just wear it!" Lin Chuqiao scratched the girl's nose and said with a smile: "Go and have fun!"

She is still the same Sister Chu Qiao, but she feels different!

"Well, thank you, Sister Chu Qiao!" Li Dingxi jumped into the kitchen and shook his head in front of his second aunt and mother, "Second aunt, mother, do you think my hairpin is pretty?"

Lin Chuqiao and the other team members who returned one after another began to register the number of samples.

Shen Yujing and Lin Weiguo also came down from the mountain.

"Oh, it's so cold! I had to get up at six in the morning to go up the mountain to collect samples from the stream. It really suffocated me! Has the lunch from the brigade been delivered?" Lin Weiguo said coldly.

Everyone shook their heads. At this time, there were also complaints coming from the younger students, mostly about the commune officials not knowing how to deliver meals on time.

"Here we go, the food is here. Excuse me, everyone! It's time to eat!"

Speak of the devil and he will appear. Li Fugen, along with a few helpers from the commune, hurriedly brought food in baskets.

"Hey, finally we can have a bite of hot food! Secretary Li, please eat earlier next time! Look how hungry they are!" Although Lin Weiguo's words were polite, it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied.

"Yes, yes, Teacher Lin is right!" Li Fugen nodded naively.

At this time, Li Dingxi just came out of the kitchen, jumped up to Lin Chuqiao who was preparing to eat, and said with a smile: "Sister Chuqiao, Second Mom asked you to go inside to eat! Let's go!"

Since there are so many people in this project team, they are provided with separate meals by the commune, so they do not eat at the villagers' homes.

Hearing this, many people cast envious glances towards Lin Chuqiao.

During these few days, everyone can see that the Li family has a great influence in the village. Moreover, the family conditions are good, and the food is naturally good too. Many team members want to have a bite at the Li family!

In addition to the normal three meals, everyone knew that Lin Chuqiao was often invited to eat delicious food, and everyone was envious.

Hearing Li Dingxi's words, Lin Chuqiao smiled and nodded, and was about to leave.

"Weiguo, tell Comrade Lin Chuqiao to sit down and eat!"

But Shen Yujing indifferently picked up a piece of fried radish cubes with chopsticks and said expressionlessly.

Lin Weiguo nodded and pulled Lin Chuqiao, who was standing there in a daze with a frown on her face, and said, "Xiao Qiao, sit down and eat!"

Lin Chuqiao looked at Li Dingxi's expectant eyes, looked at the warm kitchen, and silently clenched her fists.

"Lin Chuqiao, you must not take even a single needle or thread from the people. This is a work discipline! Look around you. Whether it's students like He Qiang and Xu Wei, or old professors like Teacher Hong and Teacher Shang, everyone only eats from their own pot. Just sit still!"

Shen Yujing knocked on the bowl indifferently, "I'm done! By the way, since you eat the best, let's go to the river this afternoon!"

Then he stood up, glanced at Lin Weiguo, and walked out of the Li family with his hands behind his back.

Asking female comrades to go to the winter river during the coldest days of winter? This is just a joke!

Everyone around was slightly stunned.

Seeing Lin Chuqiao sitting down and eating in silence, everyone at the table was also extremely silent. Lin Weiguo quickly finished his meal and waited until everyone started to leave. Then he pulled his sister aside and asked, "Xiao Qiao, what happened between you and Brother Yujing? He has never embarrassed you in front of so many people. Are you hiding something from me?"
