Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

Besides, since the "930" has already been sent out to both the East and West, how can we expect Xu Damao to return it?

Regardless, he came from the steel rolling mill after all. Let's give him face and not cause trouble. We'll just send him away when this one-month exchange period is over.

So Xu Damao has been living a very comfortable life these days. Compared to swinging a sledgehammer in the steel rolling mill workshop, this place is simply paradise.

Of course, most importantly, Xu Damao has found "love" again.

Yes, this bad boy has tricked Qin Jingru, who escaped his clutches, again, and most importantly, he has also fooled Qin Jingru's parents.

Qin Jingru has an older brother who is 23 years old this year. He is well past the age of marriage and has started looking for a partner around the New Year.

A few days ago, I found someone I liked, and the girl also liked Qin Jingru's brother, but we couldn't agree on the bride price.

The most crucial point is that if the woman proposes marriage, she has to buy a bicycle; an assembled or secondhand one won't do, it has to be an original one.

A dowry of fifty yuan plus a bicycle—that's quite a high standard for marriage, not just in the countryside, but even in the city.

Qin Jingru's parents strongly disagreed, but Qin Jingru's brother wouldn't have it; he was determined to marry that woman, as if he were under a spell.

When he saw that his parents disagreed, he went on a hunger strike and refused to marry anyone but her, leaving Qin Jingru's parents helpless.

After all, they only have one son, and they are counting on him to carry on the family line.

Just as Qin Jingru's parents were preparing to borrow money from all over the place to pay for their son's wedding, Xu Damao came to their door with gifts.

Xu Damao promised that as long as Qin Jingru married him, he would be willing to pay a dowry of two hundred yuan and marry Qin Jingru into his family in a proper and respectable manner.

The couple, who were struggling to find a husband for their son, were overjoyed when Xu Damao came to their door.

Qin Jingru's father invited Xu Damao to stay for dinner and drinks, while Qin Jingru's mother was in the room trying to persuade her daughter.

After Qin Jingru revealed that Xu Damao was infertile, his parents hesitated for a moment but still agreed.

He even told Qin Jingru that if he didn't want to marry Xu Damao, he would have to accept another family's marriage proposal.

Nowadays, only Wang Mazi from the east of the city and Sun Quezi from the south of the city are willing to offer a bride price of more than 100 yuan.

Ultimately, with her parents' coaxing and intimidation, plus Xu Damao's persuasion, Qin Jingru started dating Xu Damao again.

The only saving grace was that Qin Jingru was a bit smarter this time and wasn't easily won over by Xu Damao.

Qin Jingru and Xu Damao made an agreement that she would only be willing to be with Xu Damao if he recovered from his illness and the hospital said he could have children.

Otherwise, she would rather bear the stigma of being unfilial than accept the marriage.

If her parents pressure her, she will go to the commune to report them for arranging her marriage and violating her freedom of marriage.

Upon hearing Qin Jingru's words, Xu Damao was at a loss. Although the doctor said that his condition offered hope for having children, the probability was very low.

Given Qin Jingru's conditions, does that mean he'll never be able to marry her in this lifetime?

As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a stolen one, and a stolen one is not as good as one that cannot be stolen.

What does this mean?

This illustrates that what we can't have is the best, and what we yearn for most.

Xu Damao is in this state now. Sha Zhu married Qin Huairu, who has been through many hands, and treats her like a treasure.

He had to marry Qin Jingru, who was still a virgin, to infuriate that bastard Sha Zhu.

As for the conditions Qin Jingru is now proposing, he hesitated only briefly before agreeing to them.

He had already decided that once their relationship was closer, he would find an opportunity to bring her home and get her drunk.

Once Qin Jingru becomes his person, these so-called conditions will no longer be conditions.

Qin Jingru was actually quite touched to see Xu Damao agree so readily.

She knew that her parents would try to marry her off to someone in the city as soon as possible so that her brother could marry the woman he wanted.

Of the men that others have introduced her to so far, Xu Damao's conditions should be considered good.

She had heard Xu Damao say that his salary wasn't high, but he had savings, and most importantly, he didn't have to live with his parents-in-law.

He had met other people as well; although they were younger than Xu Damao, their salaries were indeed low.

After marriage, she'll have to live with his parents, and given her personality, the relationship between her and her mother-in-law will likely be very strained.

If she gets divorced over these trivial matters, she'll become secondhand, and it won't be easy for her to find a good husband again.

Her older sister, Qin Huairu, at least had a job at a steel rolling mill, but she was just a country girl with nothing but her looks.

After thinking it through, Qin Jingru looked at Xu Damao and said.

“Xu Damao, my mother said that there is a doctor named Han in our commune.”

"He specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases, and is especially skilled at treating childbirth-related illnesses."

“My sister couldn’t get pregnant after getting married. Later, it was found that the problem was with my brother-in-law, so my mother asked this Dr. Han to treat my brother-in-law.”

"In less than two months, my brother-in-law's illness was cured by him. Now my sister and her husband have had two children in three years, a son and a daughter."

"Why don't you come with me and let him take a look? Maybe he'll have a solution."

Xu Damao was quite pleased to hear this. Regardless of whether the so-called miracle doctor was real or fake, he was happy that Qin Jingru had chosen to treat him.

This means that Qin Jingru still has feelings for him, or that she is still willing to marry him.

He believed what Qin Jingru said, after all, it was her sister and brother-in-law's business, and it couldn't be faked.

He has a friend who practices traditional Chinese medicine and spends his days researching all sorts of random things, but the important thing is that these things are quite amazing.

A while ago, when Tian Tian was around, she would always make him feel sore and achy, so he even went to see her for treatment.

He was diagnosed with a fever of 4.6 degrees Celsius. After taking his pulse, I prepared a small bottle of Chinese medicine pills for him and told him to take one pill before each act.

And you know what? The medicine really worked. After taking it, he was not only able to get along with his ex-wife, Tian Tian, ​​but he also stopped experiencing back pain.

Later, in order to find a new way out, he went to Deputy Factory Director Li to plead for him, and specially gave him a bottle of pills.

Ever since He Yuzhu revealed that he was infertile outside Donglaishun, the news was spread by gossipy people in the security department.

From then on, Xu Damao felt that the people in the factory were looking at him strangely, and some even called him "Eunuch Xu" behind his back, which made Xu Damao both angry and annoyed.

Now that he heard Qin Jingru say that there was a miracle doctor here who could cure infertility, he was tempted to go and see for himself.

"Okay, no problem."

"Let's not stand here any longer, let's go find him now!"

Xu Damao and Qin Jingru rode their bicycles back to Hongxing Commune.

Xu Damao rode his bicycle while Qin Jingru gave directions, and in about half an hour the two arrived at a farmhouse.

A small yellow wooden sign hung at the entrance of the courtyard, and Qin Jingru's face lit up with joy when she saw it.

"We're lucky. Doctor Han didn't go to the countryside. He'll probably be back soon, so it wasn't a wasted trip."

This so-called "miracle doctor Han" was actually just a barefoot doctor in the countryside, not a resident doctor at the commune's health station.

You should know that rural areas are not like cities, where the factory will partially or fully reimburse medical expenses and medicine costs.

At that time, there was no cooperative medical care. Rural people had to pay for medical treatment and medicine themselves, whether it was a major illness, a minor ailment, or just a headache or fever.

For some ordinary people, compared to spending a lot of money on medicine and IV drips at the health station, they would rather have this "miracle doctor Han" come to their door for treatment.

Therefore, he wasn't necessarily at home every day, which led to his habit of hanging a sign at the door to deliver messages.

If there is a red sign hanging in front of his door, it means that he has gone to the countryside to see a doctor and will not be back for a while.

He indicated that those who came to see him for treatment should go back and come back later, or go directly to the health station.

If there is a yellow sign hanging in front of his door, it means that he is seeing a doctor in the commune and will be back soon.

If the person coming isn't in a hurry, they can wait here; he'll usually be back before mealtime.

If he were home, there would be no need for a sign; patients could simply knock on the door and enter.

Sure enough, after the two of them stood in the cold wind for more than ten minutes, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties walked over.

Qin Jingru had been here before with her older sister and brother-in-law, so she naturally recognized Doctor Han.

"Uncle Han, you're back!"

The renowned doctor, Han Yiping, saw a man and a woman guarding his door and knew they had come to see him for treatment.

Although such things are not common these days, he had experienced quite a few in the past, so he didn't find it particularly surprising.

It should be noted that although he was a barefoot doctor, he was registered with the commune.

However, because he is a self-taught traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, his business is not doing well due to some issues.

He only slowly recognized Qin Jingru when he reached the courtyard gate.

"If I'm not mistaken, you must be the sixth daughter of the Qin family!"

Qin Jingru's father was the third son in his family, with one son and two daughters. Qin Jingru was his second daughter, considered the second daughter in his family.

However, nowadays most families rank children by generation, and Qin Jingru's father had two older brothers.

The eldest son of the Qin family has only one daughter, Qin Huairu, while the second son has one son and three daughters.
