Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

It was another morning, and Han Li got up early and rushed to Liangjia Village, which was adjacent to Qinjia Village.

The news that Han Li was engaged to Qin Huairu and then broke off the engagement had already spread here, but most people were not aware of the truth.

Some gossipers asked directly, "Doctor Xiao Han, they say that when you and Qin Huairu were about to get engaged, something happened in your family and the marriage didn't take place. Is that true?"

It is obvious that this rumor came from Qin Huairu's family, because spreading it this way and putting all the blame on Han Li is most beneficial to the reputation of the Qin family and Qin Huairu.

Fortunately, the Qin family had some scruples and did not spread the story too far. Han Li was too lazy to care about these trivial matters. He sighed with a bitter face and nodded in agreement.

Listening to the parties involved clarify the facts, some were happy while others were sad.

After all, many people heard that Qin Huairu found another man in the city and thought that the Qin family had lost their conscience and broke off the engagement.

At this moment, someone has come forward to matchmake Han Li: "Dr. Han, please consider my niece. Her big ass will definitely give you a son."

Han Li directly resorted to the method of crying poor: "My family spent a lot of money on this matter. From now on, our family will have to tighten their belts to make ends meet. We can only talk about starting a family in two years."

After finishing the treatment in Liangjia Village, Han Li rushed to Qinjia Village before lunch.

Coming to the center of public opinion, Han Li could not avoid being gossiped about, but he just nodded in agreement, fully playing the role of an honest man.

But now there is a very important problem that needs to be solved. Which restaurant should I find to share meals with?

We used to have dinner at Qin Huairu's house, but now it's clear that our relationship has become strained, so it would definitely be inappropriate to have dinner at her house again.

Since the trip to the countryside was well prepared and there were good things like fish cages, Han Li ate quite well during the two days.

Moreover, there are certain rules to following when sharing a fire with others; if you try to share a fire with someone like Yan Suanpan, you will probably end up with hunger and your legs will tremble.

You can't approach widows, orphans, or widowed mothers because people will easily gossip about you.

Just as Han Li was eliminating the people from Qinjia Village one by one, he suddenly saw a cute little girl with pigtails among a group of children.

The little girl looked to be about five or six years old. She had a pair of big, bright black eyes that were particularly beautiful. She was obviously a beauty at first glance.

Han Li also knew this little girl. She was Qin Huairu's cousin, Qin Jingru.

The relationship between Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru is basically the same as that between Han Li and Han Jinsheng.

Han Li had seen Qin Jingru before and knew her nickname, so he immediately called out, "Niuniu, come here."

Qin Jingru is sensible enough. She still remembers the last time her cousin's husband gave her candy. No, now that her cousin has broken off the engagement, she can no longer call him cousin's husband.

Han Li took out two candies and handed them to Qin Jingru, smiling and saying, "Go home and tell your parents that I want to build a fire at your house. Ask your parents if they are willing?"

"Okay." Qin Jingru happily got the candy and ran home to report the news.

Afterwards, Han Li asked everyone to tell others that those who wanted to see a doctor should gather at the village entrance.

After a while, Qin Jingru came over with a beautiful woman and asked anxiously, "Brother Han Li, did you just say you wanted to build a fire at my house?"

"Yes." Han Li smiled and nodded, then looked at the beautiful woman: "Aunt, I want to build a fire in your house, do you think it's okay?"

In fact, Han Li could have used his brain and thought of a way to have enough food and drink, but he was just too lazy to bother.

Qin Jingru pouted and looked up at her mother, and said angrily: "See, I said I didn't lie."

"Of course it will work." The beautiful woman nodded hastily: "Niuniu ran back and said you wanted to join the fire, and I thought she was talking nonsense."

Qin Jingru's mother knew the truth about Qin Huairu's family's cancellation of the engagement, and instinctively felt that Han Li would be uncomfortable, and naturally he would not like Qin Huairu's relatives.

Therefore, she really didn't expect that Han Li was willing to live with her family.

To some extent, this was Han Li's recognition of her family, and it was also a good opportunity to get closer to Han Li.

In her opinion, one may not be friends with doctors who can cure diseases and save lives, but one must never offend them.

Han Li handed over the food that he had prepared long ago: "Aunt, you can cook whatever is in this bag. I will only eat two meals today."

Qin Jingru's mother didn't even bother to check if there was enough food in the bag. She immediately said with a cheerful smile, "Dr. Xiao Han, come over to eat when it's time."

Then she walked back carrying a small sack of food.

After they walked away, she opened the box and exclaimed in surprise. She thought that Han Li was an honest man and would definitely give her more food, but she never expected that there were actually a few pheasant eggs and lard!

With these pheasant eggs and lard, her family’s lunch can instantly be elevated to a higher level!

Afterwards, Qin Jingru's mother began to feel unfair for Han Li: "That family despised the poor and loved the rich and threw away such a good son-in-law. Sooner or later, they will regret it!"

At the same time, she also made up her mind that she would persuade the head of the family to have less contact with Qin Huairu's family in the future, because it can be seen from the incident of the broken engagement that such relatives who despise the poor and love the rich and have no conscience are not reliable at all.

Moreover, she always felt that Dr. Han seemed a little different this time, more mature and stable, and more organized in his work and speech.

The most important thing is that he is generous.

Just now, she asked her daughter to run errands to report a message and she was given two candies, as well as pheasant eggs and lard for building a fire. All these are enough to show that Doctor Xiao Han's family is living a good life now.

Since the previous engagement and break-up between Dr. Xiao Han and Qin Huairu was so confusing, everyone was confused and many people came to gossip about it.

"Everyone, please be quiet. I have something to say." After attracting everyone's curiosity, Han Li immediately spoke loudly:

"After practicing medicine in the countryside for more than a year, I have come to realize that my medical skills are still far from perfect. Therefore, I plan to spend two to three years concentrating on learning medical skills. In order to have doctors in the village to treat everyone in the future, I plan to select the most literate people in the village and teach them all the medical skills I know."

As soon as Han Li finished his words, the crowd went into an uproar, as if a hornet's nest had been poked, with buzzing sounds coming from all directions.

"Doctor Xiao Han, are you telling the truth?"

"Doctor Xiao Han, you can't joke about this!"

"Doctor Han, I am willing to learn. I can recognize twenty words!"

"I'm willing to say it too. I know twenty-four characters!"

……

After Han Li controlled the situation with his hands, he said solemnly: "I will give everyone enough time to study. When the assessment comes, the results will speak for themselves. I will teach those who are more literate. I will never break my promise. You can all bear witness to this."

Doctor Xiao Han looked very straightforward: "By the way, my only requirement is that you learn a lot of words and characters. Don't have any other crooked thoughts. They are useless to me!"

Before lunch time had even passed, the news that Han Li was going to take in a disciple and teach medical skills spread like wildfire, reaching every household.

When Qin Huairu's family heard the news, they became excited instantly.

If Qin Huairu's elder brother or younger brother could become a doctor, it would definitely be more glorious and prestigious than being a village cadre, and it would also make his family's life better and sweeter.

The more the family thought about it, the more excited they became, and finally they all agreed: this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they must get this place in medical school!
