Chapter 4: Approach
Song's father's illness is not only a heart disease, but also an old disease caused by years of hard work and strong physical and mental pressure, which cannot be cured in a moment.
There has always been a saying in traditional Chinese medicine: illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread, which is the truth.
Originally, Song Yunping and Song's mother wanted to send Song's father to the county hospital for a comprehensive examination, but Song's father refused to go for fear of wasting money, and besides, he was a doctor himself, and he knew his condition, and Wang Chong, a neighbor with medical skills far above him, helped to recuperate.
Under the careful care of Song's mother and Song Yunping, coupled with the reconciliation with his son, Song's father's heart knot opened a little, and his body improved day by day at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a few days, I was already able to go to the ground, but after half a month, I was able to take care of myself, but I couldn't do heavy work, and I had to pay attention to controlling my emotions.
Seeing that her father's body was getting better day by day, Song Yunping's heart that had been hanging was also relaxed, and she began to think about work.
Song Yunping herself is idle, she has gone to high school, her education is not low in these years, and it is not in those big cities with a large population base, and the job can still be arranged.
It's just a matter of the composition of the old Song family, but it has become an obstacle to Song Yunping's work.
At first, Song Yunping still ran to the town, but seeing that one by one her favorite jobs finally fell into the hands of others, Song Yunping gradually realized the problem, and her expectations gradually became less high, but after all, there was still a bit of luck in her heart, so she could only go to Director Li again and again who was not prejudiced against their family and was quite fair.
After a long period of contact, Director Li also has a little understanding of Song Yunping, and wants to help this kind and bold girl arrange a suitable job, but the composition problem of the old Song family is not something that Director Li can solve as an ordinary cadre in the town.
Although Director Li was willing to help, it was difficult to change the general trend, so he could only watch one work opportunity after another pass by Song Yunping.
On this day, Song Yunping came back from the town in a depressed mood, obviously hitting a wall again, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw her father leaning on a bamboo rocking chair, and the tall and burly Wang Zhong was sitting next to him, putting his hand on his father's vein.
Mother Song pinched her hands and stood aside cautiously, not daring to make a sound, for fear of disturbing Wang Chong's pulse.
Seeing her daughter enter the door, although Song's mother wanted to ask her daughter about the result, she was afraid of disturbing Wang Chong, so she didn't dare to speak out.
Song Yunping walked to her mother's side, called out to her mother, and followed to stand quietly on the side.
"Uncle Song, your body is recovering well, I will change the prescription again, you take one pair a day, and then take it for seven days, and we will look at it after seven days."
"Now that you're a doctor and I'm a patient, of course you're up to you."
Father Song turned his head to Song Yunping next to him and ordered, "Xiaoping! You go and help Xiao Wang dispense medicine. ”
"Okay Dad!" Song's mother is not as knowledgeable as medical science, nor is she as smart as Song Yunping, she is a dispensing worker, and it has always been Song Yunping who has given Wang Chong a hand.
Wang Chong told Song's father a few more words, and then led Song Yunping home.
Song Yunping didn't know how many times she had entered Wang Chong's house, the courtyard was full of shelves and dustpans, and in the dustpans were all kinds of medicinal materials, all of which Wang Chong had picked back from the mountains himself.
A ladder leads to the roof, and dustpans are arranged neatly on the roof.
"Brother Wang Chong, how long will my dad be well?" Song Yunping couldn't help but ask.
Wang Chongdao: "If there is no accident, another seven or eight days of hard work will be almost, but if the body wants to recover completely, it needs to continue to recuperate, and you can't be negligent." ”
"I'll teach you a few more dishes and make them for your dad, which will help him recover."
"Food?" Song Yunping asked with some curiosity.
Wang nodded and said, "Your father's current situation can't stand the big supplement, so he can only slowly replenish his lost vitality through diet." ”
Song Yunping has been used to doing work since she was a child, cooking on the fire is just a trivial matter for her, Wang Chongjiao is careful, Song Yunping is also serious in learning, and she is worried that she forgot to make a special trip to take notes.
Seven days later, under the careful care of Song Yunping and Song's mother, Song's father's illness was cured, but there was still no news about Song Yunping's work.
"What do you think?"
On the edge of Tiankan, Song Yunping sat barefoot on the soft grass, holding a dog's tail grass in her hand to rest, her not fair feet were full of traces left by muddy water, and two twisted braids still hung down from her shoulders.
Wang Chong's voice from behind him woke Song Yunping from her trance.
"Didn't think about anything!" Song Yunping said.
Wang Zhong sat down next to Song Yunping and continued to ask, "The work hasn't been decided yet?" ”
Song Yunping's eyes darkened, and she lowered her head and shook her head: "Not yet." ”
Wang Chongdao: "To be honest, judging from the current situation, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to succeed in this work." ”
"I know!" Song Yunping looked up at the blue sky, as if she wanted to hold back the tears in her eyes, Song Yunping had full words, but she didn't know how to pronounce them.
I only heard Wang Zhong say: "If you want to find a job, you just want to earn money to supplement your family, so that your parents don't have to work so hard, since you can't find a job now, why don't you want to find another way!" ”
"What can I do!" Song Yunping said: "I don't know anything else." ”
Wang Chongdao: "There is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid that if you have a heart, the opportunity will not come to the door by yourself, it is up to you to find it and grasp it." ”
Song Yunping turned her head to look at Wang Chong, although she agreed with Wang Chong's statement, she was still confused about how to find it and how to seize the opportunity.
"But now the policy has not been opened, there are not many ways to make money, if you can calm down, you might as well wait for two years."
Song Yunping remembered what Wang Chong said last time, and a little hope suddenly rose in her heart, but her personal experience over the years made her a little nervous and uneasy: "Will the policy really change in two years?" ”
Wang Zhong smiled and said, "Maybe it won't take two years." ”
"If you are backward, you will be beaten, this is the eternal truth, the times are advancing, our country also needs progress, and progress requires change."
Wang Chong looked at the cloudless, blue sky, and said with great emotion: "That day will not be too far away from us." ”
"There will come a time!" Song Yunping's eyes, expression, and tone suddenly became firm, looked at Wang Chong, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Wang Chong, I believe in you." ”
Wang Zhong said: "If you really want to find a job to do first, but you don't know what to do, why don't you come to me first and give me a hand!" ”
"I can't heal, what can I do with you?" Song Yunping asked.
Wang Chongdao: "I have been researching pills recently, although you can't cure diseases, but you know how to distinguish and concoct medicinal materials, careful and skillful, diligent and willing to work, is exactly the helper I want to find." ”
"Can I do it?" Song Yunping pointed to herself and asked a little worriedly.
Wang Chongdao: "I haven't tried it, how do you know if it doesn't work." ”
Song Yunping's eyes flickered, obviously moved: "Then I'll try?" ”
