Reborn as a Sea King in Tokyo Fishing Village

Chapter 171 Marrying a Wife
Ji Chang knew in his heart that getting married was not a hasty matter, but rather required mutual affection and the beginning of building a family together.

He decided to first get in touch with sisters Luo Juan and Luo Shan more, to understand their personalities and interests, and also to let them understand themselves.

Under Luo Qiang's guidance, Ji Chang quickly mastered some basic hunting skills.

The intelligence and agility he displayed made Luo Qiang very satisfied and gradually won the favor of the Luo sisters.

Luo Juan has a gentle personality and likes to do needlework at home, while Luo Shan is lively and active. She often goes hunting with her father and knows everything in the mountains and forests.

Ji Chang discovered that he and Luo Shan got along better with each other, and the two established a deep friendship during their adventures in the mountains and forests.

As time goes by, the friendship between Ji Chang and Luo Shan slowly sublimates into love. Luo Shan admires Ji Chang's courage and wisdom, while Ji Chang is also attracted by Luo Shan's independence and strength.

One night after returning from hunting, the two sat by the campfire, and Ji Chang expressed his feelings to Luo Shan.

After hearing this, Luo Shan showed a sweet smile on her face. She had already noticed Ji Chang's feelings and had special feelings for him.

The two made a lifelong commitment under the starry sky.

However, it is not so easy for Ji Chang to marry Luo Shan.

Luo Qiang was still not very satisfied with Ji Chang and felt that he was not yet capable of becoming a master.

Love at this time is still very restrained. Although the two people secretly love each other, they are still very restrained in their relationship.

Mainly just chatting and talking about life.

This kind of thing was very novel to Ji Chang. He thought it would be nice to experience the love in the fifties, so he was not in a hurry.

In the fifties, the pace of romance was indeed very different from the fast, direct style that Ji Chang had experienced in the past.

The love here is more subtle and gentle, and it takes time to cultivate and test.

Ji Chang found this novel and was willing to adapt to and experience this different way of emotional communication.

Ji Chang knew that to win Luo Qiang's approval, he needed to show more responsibility and ability.

So he worked harder to learn hunting skills, hoping to perform well in the next hunt and prove his strength.

While waiting for the opportunity, Ji Chang was not idle either.

He began to use his knowledge and experience to help the villagers solve some practical problems. For example, he would teach the children in the village some basic math and science knowledge to help them better understand natural phenomena.

He would also chat with the elders in the village, listen to their stories and wisdom, and gradually become an indispensable part of the village.

Luo Shan saw this and her respect and love for Ji Chang grew deeper and deeper.

She admired his intelligence and kindness, and even more so his willingness to integrate into the village and become a member of Taohua Village.

Finally, the opportunity came.

Once, an old man in the village fell ill and needed a herb that only grew in the mountains. Luo Qiang and Ji Chang decided to go into the mountains to look for it together.

During this difficult search process, Ji Chang not only demonstrated his excellent survival skills, but also showed calmness and courage, and finally helped Luo Qiang find the herbs and saved the old man's life.

This incident gave Luo Qiang a new understanding of Ji Chang.

He began to believe that Ji Chang not only had extraordinary abilities, but also had a heart that was willing to help others. He finally recognized Ji Chang and agreed to his relationship with Luo Shan.

After receiving Luo Qiang's approval, Ji Chang and Luo Shan's relationship became more open and natural. They began to participate in village activities together, work in the fields together, and walk in the mountains and forests together.

Their love took root in this land and blossomed into beautiful flowers.

As time passed, Ji Chang felt more and more that this simple and pure life was what he truly longed for.

He no longer longed for power and glory, but cherished his time with Luo Shan and the villagers, and enjoyed this plain and real happiness.

One night, Luo Qiang found Ji Chang and threw a book to him.

"I know you want to marry my daughter, but I don't want to marry her to a hunter. The book is Barefoot Doctor. If you are willing to be a barefoot doctor, I will marry Xiaoshan to you."

Hearing Luo Qiang's words, Ji Chang naturally nodded in agreement.

In the 1950s, medical resources were relatively scarce in China, especially in remote rural areas, where medical conditions were even more backward. Against this background, "barefoot doctors" came into being.

They are a group of rural medical personnel who have received certain medical knowledge and skills training and are able to carry out some basic medical care and disease prevention work, which is of great significance to improving rural medical conditions.

The importance of barefoot doctors lies in their ability to fill the gap in medical resources in rural areas and provide timely medical services to villagers. In rural areas with inconvenient transportation and far away from towns, barefoot doctors are often the first line of defense for villagers when they encounter diseases.

Not only can they deal with common minor illnesses and pains, but they can also perform some basic first aid measures to buy patients time for treatment.

In addition, barefoot doctors also undertake the responsibility of disease prevention and health education. They spread health knowledge and educate villagers to develop good hygiene habits, thereby reducing the occurrence of diseases.

In rural areas, due to the lack of basic medical knowledge, many diseases often occur due to improper prevention. The existence of barefoot doctors helps to raise villagers' health awareness and improve the health of the entire community.

In terms of specificity, barefoot doctors usually come from rural areas and have a deep understanding of the local environment and the villagers' lifestyle. This allows them to be closer to the villagers and better meet their medical needs.

At the same time, the training period of barefoot doctors is relatively short, and they can provide medical talents to rural areas in a shorter period of time, which is difficult to match with other medical talent training methods.

After learning about this, Ji Chang felt extremely proud and responsible for becoming a barefoot doctor. He knew that this was not only to win Luo Qiang's recognition, but also for the villagers of Taohua Village, in order to bring them health and hope.

Ji Chang began to study the book "Barefoot Doctor" carefully, which introduced in detail basic medical knowledge, diagnosis and treatment methods of common diseases, and some basic surgical operations.

With his intelligence and hard work, Ji Chang quickly mastered the knowledge in the book.

During the learning process, Ji Chang often consulted the old Chinese medicine doctors in the village to learn how to identify and apply Chinese herbal medicine. He gradually became a well-known medical assistant in the village. Villagers would come to Ji Chang for help when they had a headache or fever.

Luo Shan was deeply moved when she saw Ji Chang working so hard.

She began to take the initiative to help Ji Chang with his studies, and the two studied herbs and discussed medical knowledge together.

As they studied together, their relationship grew stronger.

In the end, with Luo Qiang's witness, Ji Chang not only became a respected barefoot doctor, but also won Luo Shan's heart.

Their love blossomed into the most beautiful flower in this land full of hope.

For Ji Chang, this is not just the beginning of a new identity, but also the beginning of a new life.

The wedding of the two was also very simple, which was in line with the characteristics of this era.

In that simple era, weddings had no luxurious pomp and no complicated rituals. There were only two hearts that truly loved each other and the best wishes of the folks.

Ji Chang and Luo Shan's wedding was held in the small square of Taohua Village. The villagers spontaneously helped to arrange it and used the village's public funds to buy some candies and melon seeds as snacks for the celebration.

At the wedding, Ji Chang wore a neat Mao suit, while Luo Shan wore a red cotton jacket, with happy smiles on their faces.

The children in the village ran around the newlyweds, while the adults gathered together and expressed their good wishes to the newlyweds with simple words.

The ceremony was simple and was presided over by the village chief. Ji Chang and Luo Shan exchanged wreaths woven with wild flowers in the presence of fellow villagers, symbolizing their pure love and beautiful expectations for their future life.

Then, the newlyweds offered tea to Luo Qiang and the elders from both sides to show their respect and filial piety to their family.

After the wedding, people from the whole village sat together to eat. Although it was just some simple farm dishes, everyone enjoyed it very much and the atmosphere was warm and lively.

After the meal, the young people in the village began to sing and dance, blessing the newlyweds in their own way.

After seeing the guests off, Ji Chang returned to his room.

This was the wedding room he decorated, which was already a particularly good house at that time.

In the wedding room, Ji Chang and Luo Shan sat opposite each other, both with shy but happy smiles on their faces. The room was simply decorated but warm, with several village handicrafts hanging on the wall, pots of vibrant green plants placed by the window, and a faint floral scent in the air.

Ji Chang gently held Luo Shan's hand and looked at her affectionately: "Luo Shan, although our wedding is simple, I will do my best to let you live a happy life."

Luo Shan lowered her head slightly, a blush on her face, and she responded softly: "Ji Chang, I don't care about material things. As long as I can be with you, it is my greatest happiness."

Although the conversation between the two was brief, it was full of affection and sincerity. In this simple wedding room, their hearts were blended, and their love for each other became even deeper in this plainness.

Ji Chang took out a small wooden sculpture that he had carved himself and handed it to Luo Shan: "This is a gift I prepared for you. Although it is not expensive, it represents my thoughts."

Luo Shan took the wood carving and found that it was a pair of birds holding hands. She looked at Ji Chang with emotion and said, "This is the best gift I have ever received. I will treasure it forever."

Late at night, the two sat by the window, looked up at the starry sky, and made a common wish.

They hope that the days to come will be like the starry sky, ordinary yet shining with eternal light.

On the first night of their wedding, Luo Shan transformed from a young girl into a mature woman.

The next morning, Luo Shan got up early.

She started preparing breakfast, which was one of her ways of expressing her love. She hoped to kick off their new life with a hot meal.

As the morning light poured into the house through the window, Ji Chang gradually woke up. He saw that Luo Shan was not around, so he put on his clothes and walked out of the room. Seeing Luo Shan busy in the kitchen, a warm feeling surged in his heart. He walked over, gently hugged Luo Shan's waist, and whispered in her ear: "Good morning, my bride."

Luo Shan turned around with a happy smile on her face: "Good morning, did you sleep well?"

The two enjoyed a simple breakfast prepared by Roshan, which included fresh corn porridge, homemade pickles, and some fruits and vegetables just picked from the yard.

After the meal, Ji Chang helped Luo Shan wash the dishes. The two chatted while doing housework, enjoying the sweetness and tranquility of their newlywed life.

Afterwards, Ji Chang and Luo Shan walked out of the house together and started their day's work.

They first went to the fields to check the growth of crops, and then went to the mountains to pick herbs. Ji Chang was very impressed by Luo Shan's knowledge of herbs. She could always accurately point out the uses and picking methods of various herbs.

In the afternoon, Ji often goes to the village clinic to help, where he has begun to learn and practice the knowledge in the book "Barefoot Doctor" to provide basic medical services to the villagers.

Luo Shan continued her needlework at home and also prepared dinner in the evening.

In the evening, the two met again, enjoying the cool in the yard, and talked about what they had seen and heard that day. They shared their happiness and troubles, and the understanding and support from each other made them feel very relieved.

As night fell, Luo Shan prepared a sumptuous dinner and invited several friends from the village to come to her home for dinner to celebrate their marriage.

Although simple, it was full of laughter and joy, and the blessings from the villagers made them feel warm and happy.

The newlywed days passed one by one, and Ji Chang and Luo Shan's life was simple but full of love. They worked together, studied together, overcame difficulties together, and enjoyed every joy that life brought them.

However, life always has unexpected twists and turns. One day, Luo Shan went up the mountain to pick herbs as usual, but she did not return until nightfall. Ji Chang felt uneasy, so he organized the able-bodied men in the village, lit torches, and went up the mountain to search overnight.

After a night of anxious searching, they found Luo Shan at the foot of a steep hillside the next morning. She was lying there, motionless, with herbs and picking tools scattered around her. Ji Chang felt heartbroken and rushed forward to check, only to find that Luo Shan had fainted and had obviously broken her spine.

The villagers helped to carefully carry Luo Shan back home, and Ji Chang immediately used the medical knowledge he had learned to carry out preliminary treatment. He knew that Luo Shan's condition was very serious and needed professional treatment as soon as possible. However, in this remote village, there was a lack of advanced medical equipment and professionals, which made him feel unprecedented helplessness and anxiety.

Ji Chang decided that no matter what the cost, he must rescue Luo Shan.

Roshan's best years had not yet begun, and he couldn't accept that she would become a bedridden person.
