Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth

Chapter 118 Field Investigation



Chapter 118 Field Investigation

The person driving the tractor this time was an experienced tractor driver in the village. Although it took some time along the way, he managed to get the person to the county hospital safely.

After the man was sent to the hospital, everyone finally felt relieved.

Seeing the doctors coming in and out, several people felt somewhat panicked.

Finally, the doctor came out and looked at the people waiting outside and asked, "Who are the family members?"

"It's me." Liu Jinshui spoke first and walked towards the doctor.

"The patient now has a fractured calf bone and needs a cast."

Hearing that it was a broken bone, Gu Zhan's heart finally settled down. Fortunately, it was just a broken bone.

"Oh, we need to apply plaster." Liu Jinshui said.

Finally, Liu Zhong had a cast on his leg. After the doctor prescribed some medicine, he returned to Shanghe Village. By then, it was already dark.

Everyone worked together to lift Liu Zhong from the tractor compartment and settle him down before they dispersed.

Gu Zhan did not leave. He helped Liu Zhong adjust his position and told Wang Yuehong and Liu Jinshui how to take the medicine prescribed by the doctor before leaving.

"Wife, open the door." Gu Zhan was afraid that knocking on the door would scare Liu Xiaoxi, so he called out directly.

Liu Xiaoxi, who heard the sound, wanted to go out, but was stopped by Huang Guihua. She and her grandson Liu Jianguo came out to open the door.

After seeing Gu Zhan, Huang Guihua asked anxiously, "Son-in-law, how is the situation? What did the doctor say?"

God knows how anxious she was?

Gu Zhan comforted Huang Guihua in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, Big Brother is fine. He just has a fractured calf bone. He will be fine after resting for a while."

"Bone fracture?" Huang Guihua didn't know what bone fracture meant, but when she heard that the bone was injured, she was anxious to go home.

It was Gu Zhan who pulled the person into the house first.

"What? I have to go back to see your brother first."

"Mom, please wait a moment." After saying that, Gu Zhan opened the cabinet to take something out.

Huang Guihua watched her son-in-law take out a can of malted milk and a bag of brown sugar from the cabinet, and she probably understood what he meant.

If it were under normal circumstances, she would definitely refuse it. How could she just give such a precious thing to someone? But now, her son had injured his bones and needed nutrition, so Huang Guihua hesitated for a moment.

Liu Xiaoxi went over to help, wrapped the things Gu Zhan took out of the cabinet in a cloth, and stuffed them into Huang Guihua's hands: "Mom, take these things back and give them to my brother to take good care of himself. I will go to see him tomorrow."

"This..." Huang Guihua hesitated, feeling it was not right to take it, nor was it right not to take it.

Finally, Gu Zhan dispelled his doubts: "Just take it. There is more here in the creek. If there is no more at home, I will go buy more. Big brother has injured his bones and needs to replenish his nutrition."

"Then...consider it something I owe you, kid."

Gu Zhan interrupted Huang Guihua and said, "You're too polite. We are all family. How can we be so different?"

"Hey, good."

When Huang Guihua took the things and took Liu Jianguo back to the Liu family, she found out that the money for Liu Zhong's medical treatment in the county town was all paid by Gu Zhanle.

Huang Guihua felt a little sorry for her son-in-law.

Liu Jinshui, on the other hand, was more open-minded. He advised Huang Guihua, "You don't have to feel any burden. The two families always help each other. As their parents, you and I should be happy."

After hearing this, Liu Zhong and Wang Yuehong nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, that's what you said." Huang Guihua also agreed.

"Although the favor does not need to be repaid, the money owed must be repaid. You two can't ignore this matter." Liu Jinshui said.

"Okay, Dad. We'll both remember this and won't forget the help from my sister and brother-in-law."

Seeing that his daughter-in-law finally came to his senses, Liu Jinshui nodded with relief.

Liu Jianguo had been worried for more than a day. Now that Liu Zhong came back, he stayed beside Liu Zhong and was unwilling to go to sleep. Finally, Huang Guihua persuaded her grandson, "Your father is injured and he needs to have a good rest." Only then was Liu Jianguo willing to go to the main room with the two elders to sleep.

Liu Xiaoxi listened to Gu Zhan's explanation to Huang Guihua just now, and now she finally felt relieved.

"Will there be any sequelae?"

"Normally, she won't get a good rest." Looking at his wife's dark circles, Gu Zhan said patiently.

"Thank you, Gu Zhan." Liu Xiaoxi said cautiously.

"Why are you thanking me? You idiot, they are all your family, which means they are my family too."

"Gu Zhan, I like you so much."

Liu Xiaoxi put her arm around Gu Zhan's waist and spoke coquettishly.

Gu Zhan felt very comfortable and relaxed at this moment. He also teased his wife intentionally: "So you like it now. You didn't like it before."

Liu Xiaoxi whispered in Gu Zhan's ear: "I liked you before, too. I've liked you for a long time."

After running around for a whole day and night, Gu Zhan was very tired. After dinner, the couple took a rest.

Early the next morning, Gu Zhan sent Liu Xiaoxi back to her mother's home. On the way home, Zhao Baohen called Gu Zhan to the brigade headquarters.

"Someone from the County Agricultural Bureau just came to inform us that experts from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences or people from the Municipal Agricultural Bureau will come to Shanghe Village soon," Zhao Baogen said excitedly.

"Boy, are you talking about the cattle-raising thing?"

"Yes, Uncle Zhao."

Gu Zhan did not expect Sun Yuan to be so quick. He had organized people to come for a field investigation in just four or five days.

"Do we need to prepare anything?" After all, experts from the province and leaders from the city and county will be coming, and the scale of the event is huge, so Zhao Baogen is a little nervous.

Gu Zhan also understood Zhao Baogen's thoughts. He said bluntly, "No need, Captain. They are just here for a field survey. We don't need to do anything else."

The plan that Gu Zhan left at home had already been engraved in his mind, so it didn't matter whether he took it or not.

While everyone in Shanghe Village was anxiously waiting, around ten o'clock in the morning, Sun Yuan, with his men, as well as Liu Jianhua, director of the Municipal Agriculture Bureau and related personnel, Zhu Changzhi, director of the County Agriculture Bureau and related personnel, Li Fu, director of the Xiaohe Town Commune, and others, came to Shanghe Village in a mighty procession.

"Hello, President Sun, hello, Director Liu..." Gu Zhan greeted everyone one by one, and then the group entered the conference room at the invitation of Zhao Baogen.

"The temperature and environment here are pretty good, right?" Sun Yuan whispered to Guo Zhida who was walking beside him.

"Dean, it's really good."

At the meeting, Sun Yuan took the lead in explaining the "Anhe No. 1" yellow cattle breeding experiment to everyone, and also told everyone that they intended to establish a breeding base in Shanghe Village.

"We came here, on the one hand, to investigate whether the environment here is suitable for the growth of our newly developed breed of 'Anhe No. 1' yellow cattle. On the other hand, we also wanted to seek the opinions and suggestions of our local leaders to see if they can undertake our project."

When Liu Jianhua and Zhu Changzhi heard that the project was located in Xia County, they naturally agreed with both hands.

On the other side, when Li Fu heard that the address chosen by the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences was Shanghe Village, which did not take him seriously, he felt like a thorn in his heart, and then continued what Liu Jianhua and Zhu Changzhi said.

"Professor Sun, the environment in our Xiaohe Town Commune is very good. Look at the production brigades in Xiahe Village, Nanhe Village, etc. They are all very good. You can consider them."

At first glance, this statement does not make any sense. It simply increases the probability of the entire Xiaohe Town Commune being selected. However, Gu Zhan and Zhao Baogen knew clearly that this statement was directed at the Shanghe Village Production Brigade.
