Chapter 1 Rebirth
The pungent smell of disinfectant woke Zhou Zhi up.
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the infusion bottle hanging on the iron shelf above my bed.
The medicine bottle is made of glass, with a white rubber stopper at the bottom. The infusion tube is a thick tendon-colored rubber tube. There is a glass air trap between the rubber tubes, and the liquid is dripping drop by drop inside. .
What's wrong with you? Zhou Zhi wanted to stand up, but found severe pain coming from the right side of his lower abdomen.
I had no choice but to lift my neck and finally see the surrounding scene clearly.
This place is very familiar, but logically speaking, it should be as familiar as in memory.
County Hospital, surgical inpatient ward.
The room was very cold and only felt comfortable in summer. The floor was made of fluorite cement that had been polished by polishing. The lower half of the wall was painted with green paint and the upper half was made of white latex.
When Zhou Zhi opened the quilt and saw the white gauze covering the wound, he was sure that he was reborn and returned to 1991, the end of the first half of the first half of high school.
In my memory, I played a game of football with my classmates yesterday. I went home that night and had abdominal pain after going to bed. Based on the knowledge I learned while reading miscellaneous books at Xinhua Bookstore, Zhou Zhi concluded that he had appendicitis.
My father was on a business trip, and it was my mother who called and asked for the company’s car to be taken to the hospital.
During the surgery in my previous life, I slept on the operating table, and when I woke up, I was back on the hospital bed.
Lu Xinhua, the surgeon who performed the surgery on himself, even made fun of himself for being big-hearted.
Looking at the silently dripping medicinal liquid, Zhou Zhi couldn't help but feel a little excited. This is... rebirth into the most beautiful years...
In this era, the world is changing rapidly, and our country is the one that is changing the fastest and most violently among the rapid changes in the world.
In just seven years, the general income of residents rose from tens to one or two thousand, which is a concrete and microcosm of this change.
Although there is still conflict between old and new ideas in society, and people have been confused and anxious by various trends of thought, it is undeniable that the country has passed a turning point, and the times have changed its face. Most people are mentally prepared.
Next, unlimited potential will explode.
This era is full of opportunities and challenges.
The only flaw was that he was lying on the hospital bed on the first day after he was reborn.
In my previous life, I wrote two novels. One almost started in 2012, and the other traveled back to the Song Dynasty, which was in chaos, internal and external troubles.
Because I have imagined similar situations countless times in my mind, Zhou Zhi is not panicked at this moment.
Thinking that the protagonists in his two novels have worked hard all their lives and never lived a day for themselves, Zhou Zhi couldn't help but shudder.
That kind of life is definitely not what I want.
The so-called Xiu Qi Zhiping, the latter two items are presided over by countless elites in this era, and there is no need to worry about them in their turn like the protagonist in the novel.
I did have a lot of regrets in my previous life. Take those two novels as an example. The creation at that time was actually in a hurry, many places were not handled perfectly, and there were some shortcomings that book lovers were generally dissatisfied with.
If those things could be handled well, if I had not wasted more than ten years and started writing earlier, those two novels should actually become phenomenal works.
If you can stand on the tuyere, pigs can be blown up. However, pigs who miss the tuyere can only remain pigs.
The biggest regret is that it was ten years too late for me to realize what I should pursue most.
There was a friend in the previous life, and his unintentional words were like torture of the soul for Zhou Zhi - Zhou Zhi, what help do those piles of old papers that you love to study and specialize in your life and your work? ?
The thoughtfulness at that time was truly speechless.
It wasn’t until the completion of the two novels that Zhou Zhi realized that he should have respected his heart from the beginning and chosen to do what he liked best, instead of wasting great opportunities in order to secure food and clothing. Time has made my precious youth an ineffective cost.
The pile of old papers mentioned by friends is actually Zhou Zhi’s special hobby since childhood - ancient Chinese history and traditional culture.
It will indeed be difficult to find a corresponding job in this major in the next ten years. Even if you find it, your life may not be satisfactory.
But it was not until another twenty years later that Zhou Zhi discovered that he used the things he dug out from the old papers to randomly piece together into materials and wrote a novel, which would be recognized and affirmed by so many people. Popular among people!
Anyone born with talent will be useful, so there is gold in the pile of paper!
I am not alone!
Now that he has the opportunity to start over, Zhou Zhi has made up his mind to never waste his life in vain!
Even if it is for those book lovers who once loved his works, he will make them perfect! Let more people see them!
At the very least, it is still a familiar environment and familiar people. This made Zhou Zhi feel that compared to the protagonists in his novels, he was really lucky.
"You kid! You're still looking at me when the potion is gone. You don't even know how to call the nurse?!" A familiar voice sounded urgently at the door.
Zhou Zhi turned around and saw a slightly fat, middle-aged woman with short wavy hair appearing at the door, carrying a net bag in her hand. Inside the net bag were a water bottle, a washbasin, and a washcloth. Fruit and the like, with an angry look on his face.
"Mom?"
"Nurse! Nurse! The medicine for the fifth bed is gone-" The mother's figure disappeared in an instant, and she hurriedly called the nurse. You are so young...
Zhou Zhi could only face the empty ward door again and silently finish what he had just left unfinished.
After a while, my mother and nurse came back and began to change Zhou Zhi’s medicine bottles.
"Look, all the blood has returned!" My mother shook Zhou Zhi's hospital bed and put him in a semi-lying position, while complaining: "It's not worry-free at all."
At this time, a middle-aged man in a white coat also walked in and said with a smile: "I happened to be doing ward rounds, so I thought it was my sister-in-law's voice, and it was right."
Seeing the white coat, Zhou Zhi quickly said: "Uncle Xinhua, I'm bothering you again this time."
Eh? Why should I say it again?
My mother also quickly asked the white coat: "Xinhua, how many days will it take for Zhou Zhi to be discharged from the hospital?"
The white coat is Lu Xinhua, the director of surgery at the county hospital, and he is also a classmate of his parents.
Zhou Zhi’s hometown is Jiachuan County, a small county under Manzhou City in the southwest border. It is the only place besides Lingnan that is rich in lychees.
This was the case in the small county in 1991. Many people were familiar with each other, and most of their work relied on relationships. People with a slight influence would always be seen without looking up.
Lu Xinhua put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and looked at Zhou Zhi: "This kid is in good health. He will probably be able to go home and recuperate in three or four days. He can just remove the stitches after he recovers."
Zhou Zhi said again: "Thank you, Uncle Xinhua."
Lu Xinhua smiled at Zhou Zhi and said: "You are really a crow. Mouth, I said I had appendicitis before I even got tested, and the result was really accurate! How did you know?” When my stomach hurts in circles at night, I know something is wrong. Xinhua Bookstore has a book about this - "Diagnosis of Common Family Diseases"
"You brat, you're smarter than your dad!" Lu Xinhua pretended to check Zhou Zhi's wounds and sling bottles: "It's okay, it's just a minor surgery, just lie down for a few days."
said After that, he said to his mother: "Sister-in-law, just go and do what you need to do. Don't worry. Didn't the divination master say that this kid will have his roots fixed at the age of sixteen? Isn't that already soon?" "
My mother frowned: "It's just passed."
Lu Xinhua smiled: "Zhou Zhi can't eat anyway, so he just comes to visit after get off work, so let this kid carry it by himself. Use the empty bottle to replace it with salt water.”
After that, he said to Zhou Zhi, “I’m a high school student, is that okay?”
Zhou Zhi nodded quickly: "No problem."
"No problem! Xinhua, you don't know, so you said hurry up and get something. When you came back, you saw him staring at the medicine bottle, like a fool, there was no water. I don’t even know how to call the nurse!”
“You just woke up, don’t worry, I won’t do it again,” Zhou Zhi said with a smile.
My mother said to Lu Xinhua gratefully: "Thank you Xinhua for yesterday. When Lao Zhou comes back, our family will come to thank you again."
Lu Xinhua shook his head: "My brother Zhou Ah... Everything is fine, but I am too straight. Sometimes you need to persuade me, sister-in-law.”
Mom quickly glanced at Zhou Zhi, pulled Lu Xinhua to the small balcony of the ward, and whispered: "Xinhua also knows?" Blowing all over the city?" Lu Xinhua also lowered his voice.
"Actually, Lao Zhou has been working hard during this period, or it would be good to change places." My mother sighed: "It's better to do this." Not all snakes bite people." Lu Xinhua shook his head with a smile and continued to comfort his mother: "We all admire Brother Zhou's character. This means that after all the hard work is done, someone wants to board a smooth sailing ship."
Then the voice dropped even lower: "Now there is some news, sister-in-law I would like to advise you, brother, if you need to take action, do it as soon as possible..."
Mom and Uncle Xinhua were whispering there, but they didn't know that most of their conversation had already been heard by Zhou Zhi.
In his previous life, he was thoughtful and never cared about his parents' work. His parents never talked about this in front of their children, and they just asked him to study hard.
This matter was only learned by Zhou Zhi from adults chatting much later.
The county's agricultural supplies company received a batch of fake seeds. After they were bought, the farmers discovered the problem as soon as the seedlings came out, so they filed a lawsuit with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
After understanding the situation, my father, who is the director of industry and commerce, wants to deal with the agricultural supplies company.
Deputy Director Liu Changan believes that this year is a year of change, and handling it this way will easily cause the county to be passive.
In the end, Liu Changan went to the county leader, and Secretary Hua Yuliang reported the situation;
Dad went to Manzhou to report the situation to the Municipal Industry and Commerce Bureau.
In the end, Dad got guidance from the Municipal Bureau, and the farmers finally got justice. But then, rumors began to spread in the county, saying that Dad would be transferred from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau during the election this year. Bureau of Statistics.
