Chapter 483 This Silly Woman

Su Mingzhe's diagnosis of Zheng Guangming's eye disease was actually farsightedness caused by congenital cataracts.

In the TV series and the novel, this point has been revealed when Zheng Guangming holds a thick glass bottle and looks up at the sky.

If you want Zheng Guangming to regain his eyesight, you need to cure his cataracts first.

In the absence of cataracts, normal hyperopia can automatically adjust back to normal.

Of course, even if Zheng Guangming’s hyperopia is particularly severe and cannot be adjusted immediately, he can be given a pair of glasses to slowly adjust.

The logic behind this is very simple, so Su Mingzhe is not going to explain it to the Zheng family.

Of course, although Su Mingzhe didn't say much, the three members of the Zheng family could not let it go.

Zheng Juan watched the man treat her brother with acupuncture, external application, internal medicine, and a treatment lasting half a year. She couldn't help but ask:
"Su Mingzhe, how much will this cost?"

"It is worthless."

Su Mingzhe saw Zheng Juan looking at him, and after staring at each other for a while, he whispered:

"This little money is really nothing to me, so just don't worry about it."

"He is my brother, how can I ignore him?"

Zheng Juan and her brother Zheng Guangming were both children adopted by Zheng's mother. Because she was adopted early, she still had a household registration, while her brother didn't even have one.

The two people, who were not related by blood, had a deep sister-brother relationship that surpassed both Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong.

After listening to Zheng Juan's words, Su Mingzhe hesitated for a while and asked instead of answering:

"Zheng Juan, if I tell you that these herbs are very expensive, and even more expensive in the future, will you let me continue to treat Guangming or stop the treatment?"

Zheng Juan didn't expect that Su Mingzhe would suddenly answer her like this.

Mother Zheng's heart was suddenly wrenched.

After hearing Su Mingzhe's words, five-year-old Zheng Guangming lowered his head silently.

"Okay, Zheng Juan, you, Auntie, and Guangming, don't think too much."

Su Mingzhe looked at the three members of the Zheng family who were all silent, and he quietly put away the silver needle:

"I'm leaving now. I'll come back tomorrow morning. No matter what, let's cure Guangming's eyes first."

The next day, Sunday, came.

Su Mingzhe came early at around seven o'clock to see Zheng Guangming.

When Zheng's mother saw Su Mingzhe arrive as scheduled, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had talked to her daughter for half the night, and kept talking about the importance of Su Mingzhe to their family.

Just as Su Mingzhe said, no matter what, let Su Mingzhe cure Zheng Guangming's eyes first.

Su Mingzhe didn't know that Zheng's mother had done some ideological work on Zheng Juan last night. In any case, he didn't notice that Zheng Juan didn't dare to look at him.

After some preparation, Su Mingzhe first used silver needles to acupuncture Zheng Guangming, then changed the medicine and checked Zheng Guangming's recovery.

Finally, under the concerned expressions of the three people, Su Mingzhe announced the good news to them:

"Auntie, Zheng Juan, some of the toxins in Guangming's eyes have been removed, and there is no allergic reaction, which shows that the medicine is effective. Now continue to treat him according to this method for half a month, and the first course of treatment can be completed."

"Thank you so much, kid."

Zheng's mother didn't dare to say too many words of thanks at this time. After all, the Zheng family really had nothing to thank Su Mingzhe with.

"Auntie, your family are all good people. I can help the villagers of Baiyashan get rid of poverty and become rich, and I can also help you."

Su Mingzhe had already told the Zheng family what he had done in Baiya Mountain.

The reason I bring this up again at this time is actually to tell Zheng Juan not to mention money anymore.

Zheng Juan was not stupid. She understood what the man meant. Her face turned red, perhaps from shame or some other reason.

Mother Zheng smiled and said, "My child, you are kind-hearted. I don't have much to repay you. Let's have lunch together at noon. Juanzi cooks very well."

Faced with Zheng's mother's enthusiastic invitation, Su Mingzhe hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

He also wanted to deepen his emotional communication with Zheng Juan.

After all, he was leaving on Friday, and if he couldn't conquer Zheng Juan in the next few days, he would have to wait at least another month.

By noon.

The Zheng family really took out all the good things in the house to entertain Su Mingzhe.

Not to mention things like pickled vegetables, cabbage, and radishes.

Zheng Juan actually used the little remaining oil at home to fry a pot of cornmeal and cabbage meatballs to treat herself.

For the impoverished Zheng family, such a reception was really beyond the norm.

Su Mingzhe naturally would not refuse such a generous hospitality.

After the four of them had lunch at noon, Zheng's mother still held Su Mingzhe and wouldn't let him leave:
"Child, let Juanzi chat with you at home for a while. Auntie will take Xiao Ming out for a walk. Didn't you say that we can't let Guangming stay in the house all the time?"

"Auntie, please put a hat on Guangming so he doesn't catch a cold."

Su Mingzhe realized at this time that Zheng's mother wanted to match him with Zheng Juan, but he was not sure whether Zheng Juan was willing to be matched.

After all, Zheng Juan's attitude towards me yesterday seemed to treat me as an outsider.

This attitude made him a little unsure of what Zheng Juan meant.

Zheng Juan watched her mother take her younger brother Zheng Guangming out, leaving her with Su Mingzhe, a single man and a single woman in a room.

Under Su Mingzhe's gaze, Zheng Juan quietly got into bed and began to make the bed.

"Zheng Juan, what are you doing?"

Su Mingzhe looked at the scene in front of him, swallowed hard, and his eyes moved back and forth between the bed and Zheng Juan.

Happiness comes so suddenly!

Yesterday, Zheng Juan looked like she was going to make it a point to be consistent with me.

Today, Zheng Juan is going to take the initiative to make their relationship "progress by leaps and bounds"?

Zheng Juan and her mother had no choice but to make this decision.

People are poor and have short ambitions.

The Zheng family was penniless and had nothing with which to repay Su Mingzhe.

In Zheng's mother's eyes, the only person in her family who Su Mingzhe could care about was Zheng Juan.

After a brief and simple thought, Zheng's mother told Zheng Juan her thoughts.

Zheng Juan had also made up her mind that she would treat herself as a gift to repay Su Mingzhe.

If Su Mingzhe doesn't want her anymore in the future, she won't blame her.

Of course, if Su Mingzhe is willing to be with her for the rest of his life, that would be what she has always dreamed of.

Just when Su Mingzhe was surprised and happy, Zheng Juan had already made the bed.

After all, Zheng Juan was still a virgin and couldn't do anything too proactive. After making the bed, she just got into the quilt and covered her face.

If it were a timid man, he would probably run away at this time, right?
Su Mingzhe was sure that he was not a timid man, so after the ecstasy, he didn't even bother to take off his clothes and just followed in.

After 100,000 words, it was already dark.

Su Mingzhe got out of bed reluctantly, then watched Zheng Juan put away a white towel and put it in the cabinet.

"It's getting dark, you should go back."

In her heart, Zheng Juan was actually a little confused, but after seeing the man's infatuated eyes, she felt confident again. After all, she heard from her mother that she was the most beautiful girl in Taiping Hutong:
"If you don't go back, my mother and my brother will have to endure the cold and hunger outside."

After hearing this, Su Mingzhe had no choice but to put on his clothes with a red face and leave quickly.

Not long after Su Mingzhe left, Zheng's mother returned with her son.

It was obvious that the two of them were watching not far outside the Zheng family. When they saw Su Mingzhe leave, they came back immediately.

When Zheng's mother returned home with her son, she saw her daughter sitting on the kang in a daze.

Today’s events are an important milestone in Zheng Juan’s life.

"In the past, Zheng Juan was the daughter of the Zheng family.

But from today on, she is Su Mingzhe's woman. "These were the first words Su Mingzhe said when he hugged her today.

At that time, Zheng Juan didn't know how to respond to the man, so she could only hug him with all her strength.

On the second day.

Su Mingzhe didn't come until after nine o'clock.

Mother Zheng, who came out to greet him, saw the gift in Su Mingzhe's hand and immediately pretended to be angry and said:

"You kid, you came to treat Guangming, why are you buying gifts?"

Wow, this is a big piece of meat, at least twenty kilograms.

There were also four canned foods, a bag of pears, two packages of brown sugar, and a bag of flour.

There are so many things, I’m afraid I can’t even lift them all.

"Auntie, this is what we should do."

Su Mingzhe walked inside with the gift in his hand, smiling.

Although neither Zheng's mother nor Zheng Juan made any requests, I can't just pretend nothing happened.

"I promise you, after Zheng Juan follows me, I will treat her well for the rest of her life."

As he was talking, Su Mingzhe arrived at the door and stuffed another envelope into Zheng's mother's hand:
"Auntie, here is 500 yuan. You don't have to set up a stall anymore. I'll feed you and you won't go hungry."

"Kid, you are a good kid."

Zheng's mother took the envelope and looked inside. In addition to a stack of money, there were also food coupons, oil coupons, and non-staple food coupons.

She estimated the money, at least five or six hundred, and the value of those bills would not be much lower.

This not only made her smile.

This is not to say that the old lady is greedy for money, but that she is afraid of being poor.

The first time she held so much money in her hands, the heavy feeling gave her an unprecedented sense of security.

"Auntie, I will be an educated youth in Baiyashan for another two or three years. During these two or three years, please take good care of Zheng Juan."

Su Mingzhe said this while also promising:
"When I come back from Baiya Mountain, I will definitely marry Zheng Juan, and in the next two or three years, I will come back every one or two months to give you a hundred yuan for living expenses."

As a man, Su Mingzhe has said so much.

Mother Zheng said nothing more. She just patted Su Mingzhe on the shoulder and told him to go into the house quickly.

Zheng Juan didn't say anything about Su Mingzhe sending so many things.

In her mind, Su Mingzhe is already her man.

Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog; marry a sheep, and walk all over the mountains.

If the man gave her steamed corn bread, she would eat it; if he gave her steamed buns, she would eat steamed buns.

This truth is a very simple moral view.

Su Mingzhe treated Zheng Guangming again.

We still had lunch at Zheng’s house.

However, compared with yesterday, Zheng Juan fried two meat dishes in a row and asked her mother to go outside and buy a bottle of wine for her husband.

Although Zheng Juan had never been to school, she had heard from some neighbors that a good life for a man is one when he has a cigarette in his hand and a glass of wine in his glass.

Su Mingzhe doesn't like drinking while eating.

However, after what Zheng Juan did, I don’t know why, but I felt so satisfied.

After lunch, Zheng's mother took her son Zheng Guangming out for a walk.

Zheng Juan cleared the dishes and went to make the bed.

After another hundred thousand words were omitted, it was dark again.

Su Mingzhe had just taken two naps at Zheng's house and was already beginning to feel reluctant to leave Jichun City.

In the blink of an eye, it was Thursday.

Zheng Juan also noticed that the man was sad about leaving tomorrow.

"There is still one and a half months until the Chinese New Year. I will try to come back before the Chinese New Year."

Su Mingzhe was reluctant to leave, but he had to leave.

After all, his current identity is still an educated youth.

"Mingzhe, how about, when Guangming's eyes recover next year, I will go to Baiya Mountain to accompany you."

Zheng Juan and Su Mingzhe have only known each other for less than a week, but they have already become inseparable.

Having a man as the pillar of the family and having no man at all are two completely different situations.

When Su Mingzhe heard Zheng Juan's words, his heart skipped a beat.

He has been persuading Zhou Bingkun to go to Baiyashan recently. If Zheng Juan also goes there, he will no longer be able to pursue Zhou Rong.

Unless you change yourself.

At this time, Su Mingzhe felt a little ashamed. After all, after getting such a good woman like Zheng Juan, he was still thinking about Zhou Rong, the love-brained woman.

Su Mingzhe hesitated for a long time before ruthlessly dissuading him:
"Guangming is too young, and Auntie is too old. If you leave with me, they will be the only two left at home. Can you rest assured? You should wait for me to come back at home..."

"Then I'll wait for you at home."

Zheng Juan could tell that the man didn't want her to follow him, but she didn't pursue the matter further.

When they were finally about to say goodbye, they hugged each other again and sniffed each other's scent hard.

The next day, Friday.

It started snowing lightly.

Su Mingzhe arrived at the Youth League Office early in the morning. Just as he was about to enter the yard, he suddenly saw a woman wearing a red scarf outside the office, smiling foolishly at him.

This silly girl got up earlier than me, and she’s not afraid of catching a cold!
In this situation, Su Mingzhe didn't care whether their relationship would be known to others, and rushed over:

"Didn't I tell you not to come out and see me off?"

"I can not sleep."

At this time, Zheng Juan was like a young girl who had just fallen in love. She looked at the man with hope, hoping that he would give her more pampering and tenderness.

However, in public, Su Mingzhe couldn't do anything else. He could only reach out and pinch her round little face, whisper a few sweet words to her, and then let her go home quickly:

"One month at most, I will definitely come back."

At this time, Wang Quan also came. Seeing Su Mingzhe and a woman behaving intimately, he actually ran over to say hello with a silly smile.

Su Mingzhe had no choice but to introduce him and Zheng Juan to each other:
"This is Wang Quan, the educated youth who worked in the countryside with me. Wang Quan, and this is my girlfriend Zheng Juan."

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

Wang Quan is such a sweet guy.

"Hello, Wang Quan."

Zheng Juan was so happy when she was called sister-in-law that the corners of her mouth curled up and she couldn't stop smiling.

"Go back quickly."

Su Mingzhe reached out and patted the snowflakes off the woman's body, then looked up at the sky and couldn't help but advised:
"The snow is getting heavier. Go back quickly and don't make me worry."

"Well, I'll go back right now."

At this point, Zheng Juan no longer held on, and took out a package from her cotton-padded jacket and stuffed it into the man's arms:
"Here are the meatballs and pies I made. They are all your favorites."

Su Mingzhe took it and felt the meatballs and pies in the package, which were still emitting heat from the inside out.

This silly woman must have stuffed the food into her arms right after it was fried and baked.

I don’t know if it got burned.

　I have something going on at home, so if there is an update in the evening, it will be very late.
