During the meal, Ling Yi felt that the Central Plains his brain had become clear.
Or rather, the memories of the self before and after Revive have completely Fusion together.
During the meal, the father and mother praised Ling Yi's cooking skills highly.
Ling Yi had been a chef for ten years, so his skills were undoubtedly excellent.
As for why the word "cook" is in quotation marks, well, that's another painful memory.
"Dad, do you know where I can get Chinese medicine?" Ling Yi asked his father after finishing his meal.
"Why are you asking this?" Father Ling Zhan asked curiously.
"Our homeroom teacher asked us to ask, saying she needs to find some Chinese medicines and asked us to come back and ask around." Ling Yi made up an excuse casually.
He certainly couldn't say that he was going to concoct a miraculous medicine that could completely cure chronic bronchitis.
So the only thing they can do is shift the blame onto someone else.
"Oh, since the teacher asked for help, then put in some effort," the father nodded and said.
"Grandpa Song Family from Hexi Village is an old Traditional Chinese Medicine. I'll take you there in a bit!"
Upon hearing his father's words, Ling Yi remembered.
The Song Family of Hexi Village is a renowned family of Traditional Chinese Medicine, having cured countless patients and saved many lives.
Unfortunately, in 2002, Old Master Song was sued by the town hospital for not having a medical license. He was arrested, fined a large sum of money, and then released.
Because of this incident, the Song Family no longer dared to treat people's illnesses easily, and the old patriarch of the Song Family died less than half a month after returning home.
It is said that when he died, his eyes could not be closed, leaving him with unfinished business.
This incident caused quite a stir at the time, with many villagers who had benefited from Old Master Song speaking out in his defense.
The town hospital gate was blocked by hundreds of villagers for several days, and the situation almost escalated to the county level.
However, Ling Yi couldn't remember how things were resolved in the end.
Around 3 p. m., the father rode his motorcycle and brought Ling Yi to Old Master Song's house.
Before even entering the courtyard, the extremely strong smell of Chinese medicine could be smelled from afar.
Things went more smoothly than Ling Yi had imagined.
However, after hearing Ling Yi name more than a dozen medicinal herbs, Elder Song asked Ling Yi, "Does your teacher's family have someone who suffers from asthma year-round?"
Seeing Ling Yi nod, Elder Song smiled and said, "This prescription is quite interesting. The person who wrote it for your teacher must be quite young. No one from the older generation would dare to combine ingredients like this."
Ling Zhan asked, "Then, is there a problem with this prescription?"
"That's no problem. The prescription is good too. The old man is just a little sentimental. The student has surpassed the teacher. That's a good thing, a good thing!" Elder Song said with a smile.
Then, he looked at Ling Yi and said somewhat embarrassedly, " Little Yi, could you ask your teacher to let me know the contact information of the person who prescribed the medicine?"
Ling Yi smiled bitterly to himself. Where was he supposed to find this person? This was all just something he made up.
Sure enough, one lie leads to a thousand more.
He could only reply evasively, "Okay, I'll go back to school and ask!"
At this moment, Ling Zhan asked, "Can my wife use this medicine?"
The old man shook his head and said, "People usually weigh this stuff, but we don't know how to weigh it, so we can't just use it randomly."
Ling Zhan was slightly disappointed. After chatting for a few more minutes, he paid the money and left with Ling Yi.
As soon as the father and son arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they heard Cong Lanzhi's familiar cough.
Although the cough wasn't loud, it was very rapid, which made the two of them anxious.
"Son, ask your teacher later if they can come up with a complete prescription."
"Yes, I know!"
Ling Yi said that with these medicinal herbs, they could prepare 09, and her mother's health would soon improve.
Ling Zhan patted him on the shoulder, then took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into Ling Yi's pocket.
Judging by its thickness, it must be at least two thousand.
Two thousand dollars may not seem like much in later generations, but in those years it was a huge sum of money.
Currently, the average wage is only a few hundred yuan.
Those who can earn a monthly salary of over a thousand yuan are considered high-income earners.
However, Ling Zhan now gives Ling Yi at least one or two thousand yuan in pocket money every month, which is quite outrageous.
"If you don't have enough money, call me, you hear me?"
Ling Yi nodded!
"Too much to do at the construction site, I'm off!" Dad said, then got on his motorcycle and roared off.
Ling Yi was filled with many emotions, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
There's a saying that sons should be raised frugally and daughters should be raised lavishly, and there's some truth to that.
During junior high school, Ling Yi Ling Yi consistently ranked first in the entire school, making him his father's pride.
Back then, my father was full of vigor and enthusiasm, and he did everything with great energy.
He doted on Ling Yi to an extreme degree.
It was precisely because Ling Zhan doted on Ling Yi that, in his previous life, Ling Yi seemed to have broken free of his shackles and constraints after entering high school, and completely let himself go.
I'm either in an internet cafe or on my way to one every day.
Smoking, drinking, fighting, surfing the internet, and calling parents became Ling Yi's entire life in his first and second years of high school.
It's easy to imagine how terrible Ling Yi's academic performance was back then.
The news that Ling Yi had become a hooligan and a spendthrift quickly spread throughout the village.
Ling Yi remembers clearly the disappointment in her father's eyes every time he saw her back then.
My parents were called in time and time again, and I was repeatedly humiliated by my homeroom teacher.
At the time, Ling Yi did not understand the emotional journey her father had gone through.
But I imagine it won't be pleasant.
At that time, Ling Yi didn't understand. He didn't understand his father's Jackie Chun for him to succeed, nor did he understand that in his father's heart, he was his only belief and the driving force behind his struggle.
It was from that time on that my father's energy and spirits declined significantly, and he missed out on many major projects that he could have secured.
The family's financial situation deteriorated further after the construction team disbanded.
"What a jerk I am!" Ling Yi laughed at himself.
"However, since Heaven has given me a second chance at Revive, I must become my father's eternal pride in this life."
Taking a deep breath, Ling Yi stepped into the house.
Ling Yi cooked dinner again.
My younger sister, Ling Li, who went to play at her classmate's house in the afternoon, has also returned.
"Brother, when did you become such a good cook? It tastes just like what you get in a restaurant." Ling Li looked at Ling Yi with admiration.
"You're so good at studying, and you're even amazing at cooking. No wonder your teachers call you a genius."
Ling Li is currently in junior high school, just starting her second year. She attends the same school as Ling Yi, Red Maple United Middle School.
Ling Yi Yihongfeng can be considered Fengyun in the Red Maple United Middle.
Every teacher spoke highly of Ling Yi.
The most outrageous thing Ling Yi did in junior high school was that he memorized the entire textbooks for biology, politics, history, and Chinese.
In fact, if someone asks for a page number, Ling Yi can recite the exact number of punctuation marks on each page.
This kind of thing is simply outrageous in other people's eyes.
But Ling Yi Ling Yi managed to do it, which shows just how extraordinary his memory was back then.
He thus became known as a genius by everyone.
Unfortunately, when news of Ling Yi's complete downfall after entering high school spread, Ling Yi went from being hailed as a genius to a negative example.
However, it's only the beginning of the first year of high school, and Ling Yi hasn't had time to go astray yet.
And having Revive, he would never allow such a thing to happen again.
"Teacher Luo Yuhong scolded me again today, but I just can't memorize it. What should I do?" Ling Li said, glancing at her older brother with some frustration.
Luo Yuhong was Ling Yi's homeroom teacher in junior high school, and she taught Chinese.
Now I've become my younger sister's homeroom teacher.
Luo Yuhong was notoriously strict; no student in her class was unafraid of her.
It was precisely because of her relationship with Ling Li that Luo Yuhong paid extra attention to her.
Unfortunately, Ling Li was genuinely bad at studying, and she didn't like studying either.
They are the complete opposites of Ling Yi.
But the teachers just happen to like comparing Ling Li to themselves, so it's understandable why Ling Li is upset.
"Isn't it all because you don't study hard enough? All you do is play all day. If you put in even half the effort as your brother, your Yu Cheng wouldn't be this bad," the mother said, tapping her chopsticks.
"Sigh, one genius is enough for our family. If another one comes along, how will the others survive!"
"What kind of nonsense is this? Only by studying hard and getting into a good university can you have a future. Do you really want to stay in this wretched Red Maple Village, toiling in the fields from dawn till dusk?"
"Who says going to school is the only way out? I've already thought it through. After graduating from junior high, I'm going to go out and work, and make a lot of money," Ling Li retorted.
"You, cough cough!" The mother was angered by Ling Li's words and couldn't help but cough.
In her mother's eyes, studying was the only way out.
Or rather, this is the idea held by almost all the older generation.
Ling Li quickly ran over and patted her mother's back.
"Mom, I'm really not cut out for school, and there's nothing I can do about it. Do you think everyone is like my brother? He's not human. Go ask around, who can memorize a textbook from cover to cover?"
"Pah, how can you talk like that? What do you mean 'not human'? Your brother is a genius!" the mother said with pride.
"Yes, yes, yes, my brother is a genius, but I'm not!"
Before the mother could say anything more, Ling Yi said, " Xiao Li, you still need to go to school. Forget about working."
"Can..."
"Listen to me. If you don't want to go to high school or go to university, then don't go. But at least enroll in a vocational high school and learn some skills."
"Otherwise, even if you go out to work, you can only go to a factory and become an ordinary worker, earning at most a thousand yuan a month."
"What is a vocational high school?" the mother asked.
Ling Li also looked at Ling Yi curiously; they had never heard of vocational high school before.
"Vocational high schools, also known as vocational high schools, are places that train specific talents. They offer majors such as e-commerce, fashion design, marketing, accounting, auto repair, cooking, and construction."
"You can learn any skill later, and when you go out to find a job, you'll have an advantage over others."
"Furthermore, vocational high school is generally three years long. If you choose a major you like and have good grades, you can continue to study for university."
Cong Lanzhi and Ling Li looked at each other in bewilderment; they had never known that vocational high schools existed.
"But are vocational high schools easy to get into?"
"Basic registration is enough to get in, but most vocational high schools have limited enrollment, so we need to prepare in advance. There's a good vocational high school in Ningbei County."
"Just apply to this one when the time comes; it's close to home."
Cong Lanzhi and Ling Li were tempted.
"You should talk to your dad about this later!"
"Brother, you're amazing! You even know all this!" Ling Li said with a smile, her eyes narrowing into slits. "Having a genius brother is really great!"
"Otherwise what? Are you really going to let you go out and work? How old are you? There are all sorts of people out there. I'm afraid you'll get scammed and end up foolishly counting money for someone else!"
"Mom, look at my brother, he called me stupid again!" Ling Li said angrily, Fist Dao Ling Yi.
Ling Yi knew that Ling Li had indeed run away to work after graduating from junior high school, and she had even run away secretly.
They even drove straight to Nanchuan City, the southernmost city, and almost caused a major incident.
In her previous life, Ling Li was lucky; in this life, Ling Yi would never let Ling Li run around recklessly.
That night, Ling Yi lay on his familiar bed, and with a thought, opened the Baidu in his mind...
