Protagonist:

Lin Hao

Half a year passed just like that, silently and without a sound, and during these six months Lin Hao had certainly not meddled little in the affairs between Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng, so to this day Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng still had not had any substantial contact.

But Cai Xiaoguang's side was anxious, sending letters every now and then to urge progress. Every time Lin Hao received a letter from Cai Xiaoguang, he would simply reply with one sentence, "Making efforts," and then go back to his own business.

During this period, Lin Kun also sent Lin Hao quite a few letters.

In the most recent letter, it said that Cai Xiaoguang had already helped Lin Kun change to a new job.

He was now working at the Soy Sauce Factory as a Quality Inspector, which was much better than his previous job.

Holding the letter, Lin Hao revealed a relieved smile on his face, thinking in his heart: "This work environment really has improved quite a bit, and it doesn't require too much physical effort either, not bad, not bad."

Lin Hao hurriedly wrote a letter back to Lin Kun, in the letter he carefully advised: "Older brother, you must read more books, you absolutely cannot give up learning. These days are still long, learning more things is always good. When the New Year comes, I'll see if I can go back for a trip, and by then us two brothers can have a good long chat."

Over these past six months, Lin Hao, relying on his superb medical skills, had truly become famous throughout the village, completely conquering the local villagers.

Previously, the villagers had been thinking that this outsider young man should follow them to work in the fields to earn work points, but they never expected that once Lin Hao's medical skills were revealed, everyone looked at him with new respect.

Now, Lin Hao not only did not need to work in the fields, but wherever he went he could win the respectful gazes of the villagers.

When the children in the village saw him, they would shout from afar: "Uncle Lin, hello!"

The older men and women in the village also often grabbed his hand and said: "Little Lin, thanks to you, if our bodies have any little ailment, we can only rely on you to look after us."

It can be said that now Lin Hao had already become the most popular and most respected person in the entire village, even the Village Party Secretary could not compare with him in this regard.

Moreover, the medicinal herb resources in these Ten Thousand Great Mountains were truly a treasure to Lin Hao.

Every time he went into the Mountain to gather herbs, Lin Hao was as excited as if he had discovered treasure. He pondered in his heart: "Many of these herbs are good things that will be hard to find in a few decades; they must be cherished and well utilized."

Back in the village, Lin Hao began to carefully process the herbs he had gathered.

Usually, if the villagers had a headache or fever, Lin Hao would take out some processed herbs for them to use. As for the rest, he stored them properly, scheming in his heart that when he had the chance in the future he would take them away.

Since Lin Hao displayed his extraordinary medical skills, the Village Party Secretary had come to value him greatly.

One day, the Village Party Secretary specifically went to the Commune and went to great trouble to secure a Barefoot Doctor position for Lin Hao.

After returning, the Village Party Secretary found Lin Hao and said with a smile: "Little Lin, I've secured a good thing for you; the Commune has given you a Barefoot Doctor position. This way, you can treat illnesses for the villagers, the Commune can also strive for some subsidies for you, and they can also allocate a plot of private land for you, where you can grow some vegetables and such, making it convenient for your own eating."

Upon hearing this, Lin Hao hurriedly said gratefully: "Oh, Secretary, thank you so much! I will definitely work hard and not let down your kindness."

That day, Lin Hao, as usual, went to the Commune early. He was going to collect some medicines and materials; although Lin Hao was a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, he also knew some basic Western medicine knowledge, so he would also use some Western medicines.

Arriving at the Commune, Lin Hao first went to collect the medicines and materials, and after carefully checking them, he hurriedly rushed to the Post Office.

In the Post Office, Lin Hao took several letters; upon opening them, most were letters from Feng Huacheng.

This Feng Huacheng, because he had been labeled a Rightist, now hardly anyone dared to publish his poems, so the letters he received were basically rejection slips from various publishers.

But today Lin Hao discovered a different letter, one mailed from Sichuan.

Lin Hao held the letter and carefully looked at the name on the Envelope; it was a girl named Liu Lan.

Lin Hao couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Who is this Liu Lan? Why would she write to Feng Huacheng?" He stood there for a while, and the curiosity in his heart was simply impossible to suppress,

hesitating for a moment, he directly opened the letter.

While opening the letter, he even imitated the spy TV dramas, carefully using a small Knife to cut it open, and muttering in his mouth: "Hmph, with Feng Huacheng's wooden head, he definitely won't discover that I've opened his letter."

After reading the contents of the letter, Lin Hao finally had a sudden realization.

It turned out that this Feng Huacheng previously had a significant other, namely this letter-writer Liu Lan.

Liu Lan's family conditions were quite good, but her family looked down on Feng Huacheng.

Feng Huacheng had no father or mother from childhood, and was raised by a stingy Uncle and aunt, with poor living conditions.

But Liu Lan happened to be deeply in love with Feng Huacheng, and the two had even privately pledged themselves to each other.

Later Liu Lan became pregnant, but when her family found out, it was a terrible matter; in anger, her family directly kicked Liu Lan out of the Home.

Feng Huacheng himself had no stable place to live at the time, so where could he settle Liu Lan?

Finally, in a situation of hunger and cold, that poor child could not be saved.

After that, when the Up to the Mountains and Down to the Countryside movement came, Liu Lan was sent down to the countryside in Sichuan, while Feng Huacheng went to Guizhou.

Liu Lan's health was originally not good; in the countryside she could not do physical labor, earned few work points, and was always sick; now she was near death, her parents at Home had also been sent down and could not care for her, and only with great difficulty did she inquire about Feng Huacheng's address from an old classmate, which was why she hurriedly wrote to ask for help.

After reading the letter, Lin Hao couldn't help but shake his head, muttering to himself: "Sigh, this Feng Huacheng is truly a man of deep affection. I used to wonder, in this era people marry quite early, how could Feng Huacheng be thirty years old and still have no partner? It turns out there was such a past."

However, this matter could allow Lin Hao to make good use of it, letting Zhou Rong and them see Feng Huacheng's true colors.
