Chapter 5 (1/2)
Until the brigade Department finished calling names and separated, Du Xiaomei and Zheng Fugui didn't say anything. Zheng Jianguo was relieved. He knew that what he said finally moved my mother. Now he bathed in the moonlight and followed the team out of the village. Looking left and right, he didn't find the figure of secretary Qu who was coming. He couldn't help but say something in his heart, so he put the idea aside, Looking at the boundless moonlight, he shrunk his neck.
Yanghe Reservoir is the main water source of Shancheng county. It is located in the southwest of the county and just south of sanlibao brigade. The team of hundreds of people is led by the militia on the road. The previous rarity and freshness passed, and soon Zheng Jianguo felt tired. The medicine box on his back seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, so that he had to lean his head forward slightly, To balance the burden of carrying the medicine box.
The medicine box is not made of leather and iron frame, but made of solid wood. It doesn't count all kinds of things inside. A box alone has about five or six kilograms. In addition, simple disinfection and binding tools such as red mercury bottles and iodine wine bottles inside, the weight alone is more than ten kilograms.
Due to the lack of drugs, most of the Western medicines in it are used to relieve pain and inflammation. More commonly, there is a silver needle and several herbs. For example, in the box carried by Zheng Jianguo, there is a stethoscope that belongs to the category of medical instruments at present, which belongs to the most practical category. The second is the thermometer for measuring body temperature.
In terms of importance, then comes the barefoot doctor manual. The thin manual is also divided into North and south according to the region. There are descriptions and simple countermeasures for adults' head fever, children's chickenpox, and even the symptoms of cancer. Therefore, this manual has become the most important treasure of members at this time, People can rely on their symptoms to determine what disease they have, so as to take further treatment measures.
Of course, the illness that can find a doctor at this time will not be a simple headache. People in this age can't stand it until they can't resist it. They won't risk spending money to find their heads. That is, for the sanlibao brigade, Zheng Fugui and Du Xiaomei have been married for 25 years and have only saved 100 yuan.
This is the secondary reason why Zheng Jianguo didn't want to go to health school. After his family ran out of money, Zheng Fugui had an urgent need for money. Therefore, after learning that his eldest sister was in love, he reported a large number to his eldest sister's husband's family at the bride price, which directly led to Zheng Chunhua's stumbling after she married. In addition, she had two daughters before she had a son, I don't know how much ridicule I received from the family. Fortunately, the eldest sister knew how to reconcile the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so I didn't end up with a home like the second sister.
Under the pale moon sky, the team of hundreds of people on the ground was moving silently along the dark road. They didn't want to roll all over. When Zheng Jianguo pulled down his bib and spewed out white gas, there was a sudden burst of cries in front. Before he could understand what the people's disordered voices were saying, Wang Guohuai, the educated youth captain on the side, had begun to sing: ”wave ~ width ~”
At the next moment, Zheng Jianguo sang along: ”the wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both sides of the Strait. My family lives on the shore. I'm used to listening to the boatman's trumpets and watching the white sails on the ship --”
”This is a beautiful motherland, where I grew up. In this vast land, there are beautiful scenery everywhere -- ”
The uneven singing is a little messy, but it does not prevent people from quickly correcting their own tunes and lyrics. Since the film was shown, the song has reached a well-known level in Yuquan area alone, because the lyricist is Wei Laker, which is also half of Yuquan's hometown, It can be seen from Zheng Jianguo's ability to keep up with the tune and lyrics.
With the sound of the song, the previously dull team suddenly radiated a completely different vitality, that is, the pace of some previous pulling also accelerated, and the frequency of walking increased with the naked eye. It seems that the team is no longer going to the construction site that needs to swing a sledgehammer, but the front line that is being besieged by the enemy! The members of the team are no longer men, women, old and young, but soldiers with heroic spirit and fighting spirit all over!
Song is an old song. According to his age, it is older than Zheng Jianguo. It is said that he has experienced the world situation of his previous life and the memory of his life. He should not have the feeling of boiling blood. At this time, after singing for a period of time, he was disturbed by people's collusion and forgetting words, and the previously driven emotions calmed down. He touched his sour nose and wet eyes, Should this be caused by sleepiness? Otherwise, as an old man accustomed to life and death, how can he be infected with tears by a song without music?
”This is a beautiful motherland, where I grew up -”
The melodious song came to his ears again. Zheng Jianguo's breath trembled. Looking at the patched sleeve, he immediately smiled. Yes, this is a beautiful motherland and the place where I was born and raised. It's ridiculous that he got into the tip of an ox horn these days and forgot all about it.
People can't forget their roots!
As a former director of the emergency department, Zheng Jianguo only thought about how to plan his future with foresight, wait for the college entrance examination, choose a major that is easy and profitable, and take good care of himself and the people around him.
