Chapter 9: Received Praises

“Auntie, Goudan’s body is still very weak, so hurry up and take him back to rest. Don’t treat Goudan badly these next few days and feed the child enough!” Zhao Xiulan warned her again.

Wu Jinhua listened to Zhao Xiulan’s words, nodded quickly, and went back with Goudan in her arms.

And the other people who joined in the fun curiously asked Zhao Xiulan, “Xiulan Ya Tou, how can you cure the snake venom? This ability is too great, right?”

Zhao Xiulan couldn’t explain the reason, so she just casually pulled up these words, “Before, when I was studying in the literacy class, I read a medical book. It was written there how to save someone from being bitten by a poisonous snake. I just tried it according to the book, but I didn’t expect it to succeed.”

When Zhao Xiulan said this, everyone understood that it turned out to be the case.

However, they still admire Zhao Xiulan. For other people, it is difficult to practice the knowledge in books in real life. Zhao Xiulan’s ability to learn and use it is still very powerful.

The matter about Goudan came to an end, so everyone dispersed and hurried back to work.

Zhao Xiulan did the same, carrying a basket on her back and holding a sickle, she continued to cut hogweeds.

Because Zhao Xiulan had saved someone today, Liu Gensheng, the production team leader, specially gave her 10 work points to reward the behavior of saving lives and helping the wounded in the village.

Normally, cutting hogweeds would only give you 3 to 4 work points. A few more work points mean a little more foodstuff in the future.

No one else has any opinions on Liu Gensheng’s arrangement. After all, everyone is convinced that Zhao Xiulan did an amazing thing today.

“Comrade Zhao Xiulan, I hope that you will keep up this kind of righteous and courageous work in the future!” Liu Gensheng said with a smile, looking at Zhao Xiulan with a touch of appreciation in his eyes.

With such a big benefit, Zhao Xiulan is naturally happy, “Hmm, Team Leader, I will keep it up!”

“Good, Comrade Zhao Xiulan, you have worked hard today, so go back and rest!”

After a tiring day, since the original owner’s physique was not very good, Zhao Xiulan really needed to go back to rest and catch her breath.

Zhao Weiguo also came back from work. Upon hearing that Zhao Xiulan had saved someone today, he was full of pride when he came back, and praised Zhao Xiulan, “Xiulan, you have done a good job, you must be kind, helpful, and carry on the **spirit of camaraderie.”

In the yard, Li Lijuan rolled her eyes when she saw Zhao Xiulan, her eyes filled with disdain.

Today, Li Lijuan was angry and jealous after hearing the villagers praise Zhao Xiulan.

Obviously, Zhao Xiulan is a bitch, so why should everyone praise her?

They should praise her instead.

In comparison, Zhao Xiulan’s finger can’t even match with her.

It’s a pity that Zhao Xiulan was praised by others instead of her. The more Li Lijuan thought about it, the more depressed she became. Now that she heard Zhao Weiguo praised Zhao Xiulan, Li Lijuan felt even more uncomfortable.

Seeing that Zhao Xiulan had been tired for the day, with a layer of sweat oozing out on her forehead, Zhao Weiguo told her to take a good rest, and the task of cooking dinner naturally fell on Li Lijuan’s head again.

Li Lijuan was a little unhappy, “Ah… I was the one who cooked breakfast earlier, and now you want me to cook dinner too? Zhao Xiulan also has to bear some responsibility, right?”

Zhao Weiguo had a blank face and said with some displeasure, “Xiulan is not feeling well, but she still insisted on going to work. Today, she saved someone’s life and got 10 work points. So, she deserves a good rest at night. Lijuan, you didn’t do much work at home. Do you still have to push Xiulan to cook dinner?”
