Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer

"I want to find something." Meng Xiaoman replied.

The old man waved his hands with a look of boredom on his face: "Let's go, let's go, this is a junkyard, not a treasure trove. I don't have gold, silver, antiques, calligraphy and paintings for you to find.".

The old man lowered his head while sorting out the garbage, and muttered: "Why do even little girls have so many evil thoughts now? Money harms people."

Meng Xiaoman came closer and replied: "Old man, you misunderstood, I'm not looking for gold and silver, just a few books?"

"Looking for books? Are there any? All those poisonous books have been burned by those little soldiers and generals."

"I'm looking for a reference book, "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry", do you know?"

After Meng Xiaoman finished speaking, the old man's eyes flashed.

"Why are you looking for this book?" He said, walking out of the scrap pile.

"My younger brother is in school, and he doesn't know much about this. I want to know more about it. I asked at the bookstore, but they didn't have it. They said you might have it, so I'll try my luck and ask."

The old man squinted at her, and Meng Xiaoman's face was calm, "Really, just find a copy."

The old man put down his stick and walked to a small shabby house in the corner of the courtyard, "Then you are really lucky. I happen to have two books ordered by others, so I can give you one."

When he walked to the house, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Meng Xiaoman steadily: "But it depends on how much money you can afford."

The two books Meng Xiaoman bought in the bookstore cost less than two yuan in total.

Judging from the old man's appearance, he would definitely not give it to her cheaply. Meng Xiaoman estimated the amount and asked tentatively: "Three yuan, do you think it's okay?"

The old man looked at her with a slightly dissatisfied expression, stretched out his hand and said, "At least this amount, five yuan."

Meng Xiaoman was embarrassed and said: "Five yuan? It's too expensive. I didn't get that much money."

The old man looked her over and said, "How much do you have? I won't sell it if it's too little."

Another girl who entrusted him to collect books paid three and a half yuan a book.

"Four yuan, I only have four yuan." Meng Xiaoman took out a few bills, which were exactly four yuan.

The old man gave it a slightly disgusted look and said, "Okay, four yuan is four yuan. Do you only want one copy?" Four yuan is at least fifty cents more than three and a half yuan.

"Hmm, we only have so much money." To pretend to be poor, he said he only had four dollars. If he goes back on his word now, wouldn't it be a slap in the face? Besides, she didn't plan to use this book to make money, she just kept it for herself and Xiao Xiangdong.

The old man went into the house and took a book to Meng Xiaoman. Meng Xiaoman flipped through it and found that although it was a little old, it was not damaged or dirty, so he gave the money.

On the way back, Meng Xiaoman was thinking that Shen Yuru must have been to the scrap collection station, otherwise, the old man would not have sold her just one copy. When she opened the door just now, she caught a glimpse of more than one "Self-Study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" lying on the ground.

However, as long as she has a copy, it will be enough. There are still more than three years before the 77 college entrance examination. There is no rush, but she did not expect that the heroine would start planning so early.

As expected, she is someone with the aura of a heroine.

Back at the Qinghe Brigade, Meng Xiaoman first went to Shen Yuru and told her that she had asked someone to buy ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, and she did not need her help to buy them.

Then, she went to the breeding office and asked Mr. Chen, saying that all the medicinal materials were ready. When he had time, he could teach her how to treat Xiao Xiangdong.

After setting the time for treatment, Meng Xiaoman started commuting to and from work every day.

During this period, she asked for too much leave, and Meng Xiaoman was worried that the team would have objections. However, the team leader Zhang Mancang had a good attitude. He did not criticize, but just said something indifferent, so that she could talk less if there was nothing important. Please take some time off.

Meng Xiaoman saw the pride on his face and asked Sister Fang, who was weeding at the side: "Sister Fang, what's going on with Team Leader Zhang? What happy event has happened to him?".

Sister Fang stopped the hoe and whispered: "You don't know? He and Zhao Xiaohe are getting married.".

Meng Xiaoman looked in the direction Zhang Mancang was walking. He was talking next to Zhao Xiaohe, who looked shy and sweet. Looking at the two of them, they seem to like each other very well.

"I don't know. When will they be scheduled?"

"It seems to be the eighth day of April."

It is now the sixth day of March, only one month away from the eighth day of April.

Since taking the pills in the space, Meng Xiaoman obviously feels that her memory has improved a lot. She has memorized the Compendium of Materia Medica given by Mr. Chen and replaced it with the human body meridian diagram.

Before the treatment, Xiao Xiangdong had been drinking Chinese medicine for seven days. The treatment was mainly acupuncture. His legs were covered with silver needles. Every time he took an injection, Mr. Chen explained to Meng Xiaoman the acupuncture points, their effects and the depth of the needles.

Acupuncture is a very labor-intensive job. When Mr. Chen took off the needles, his face looked obviously pale.

In the evening, Meng Xiaoman stewed a pot of ginseng and pheasant soup and sent it to Mr. Chen.

"Why did you bring it here? Xiao Xiangdong should be replenished. He looks strong, but in fact his body has many hidden wounds and internal losses. If he doesn't replenish it now, he will suffer a lot when he gets old."

"This is for you, I still have it at home."

In fact, the easiest way to replenish Xiao Xiangdong's health is to feed him a Shiquan Dabu Pill. It's just that she hasn't figured out what excuse to give him yet. She can't use the excuse left by her father again.

If you use it too much, you may become suspicious.

After she has mastered her medical skills, she can find a suitable excuse to use them.

Xiao Xiangdong's legs needed acupuncture seven times, once every seven days, for a total of forty-nine days. For more than a month, he had to take two sets of medicine every day and apply medicine on his legs at night.

Except for acupuncture, which requires Meng Xiaoman to study and assist, Xiao Xiangdong basically does all the other preparation and application of medicine by himself.

Only on the day of acupuncture, when her legs hurt so much that it was difficult to move, would Meng Xiaoman help prepare and apply the medicine.

When Meng Xiaoman first saw Xiao Xiangdong's legs at Xiao's house, they were pale and thin, with scars all over them and muscle atrophy. But it's much better now.

I don’t know if it’s the effect of the Shujinjiangu Pills, the effect of the food in the space, or the reason for keeping up with the nutrition of food and drink. In short, the scars on Xiao Xiangdong’s legs have faded a lot, and there is flesh on the legs, and they are not as thin as before. .

After the boiled plaster is cooled to semi-hot, apply it evenly on both legs, wait half an hour, and then wash it off after it cools down.

Xiao Xiangdong sat on the edge of the kang, with his legs covered by the quilt, revealing his two thin, pale legs. Meng Xiaoman took a jar of prepared ointment and applied it to him.

The soft hands and warm ointment moved up and down his legs, causing shivers.

The oil lamp was very dim, and her face was very close to her legs. Although her legs had not recovered, Xiao Xiangdong felt that he could feel the breath she exhaled on her legs, making them slightly warm and numb.
