Educated Youth in the Countryside: She is the Village's Embroidery Queen!-Chapter 272: Heart-Piercing

But she didn’t expect that Yi Chichi would be willing to give her the job of hygienist.

In an instant, she was moved to tears, grabbing Yi Chichi’s hand and thanking him excitedly, "Thank you, Mr. Yi, thank you so much!"

"No need to thank me, you should thank Uncle Yaozi the team leader and the others. If they didn’t recognize you, it wouldn’t matter even if I was willing."

Worried that she might do something unexpected due to being overly emotional, Yi Chichi withdrew his hand and said with a warm smile, "Also, you should thank your solid surgical skills and first aid knowledge."

If it wasn’t for her saving people from the neighboring team in the field before, saving two at once, and carrying out the entire rescue process calmly and rationally like she was shining, Uncle Yaozi and the others wouldn’t agree for her to be the hygienist.

So, Lang Hong should actually thank herself.

"Do your best, Uncle Yaozi and the others have high expectations of you."

Lang Hong nodded vigorously, solemnly promising that she would do her best.

Then, she thanked the team leader and Uncle Yaozi, "Thank you, team leader uncle, thank you, Uncle Yaozi, I will not let you down."

This kid is much better than Xue Jiahuan in many ways.

Although her work in the fields is not great, she’s hardworking and has strong professional skills in healthcare, and that’s enough for them.

So, in the following time, Uncle Yaozi, who had a good impression of her, began to evaluate her knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine.

Yi Chichi and the team leader sat beside, each holding a cup of tea, watching the conversation between a senior and a young person.

While watching intently, someone poked them.

The team leader turned his head, his eyes sharp as a knife, piercing onto Yi Chichi’s face, "You annoying kid, why are you poking me for no reason."

Don’t you know my arm is not good? What if you poke it and it gets worse.

"Uncle, I’ve retired from being a hygienist."

Yi Chichi happily reminded.

The team leader... really doesn’t want to wait even a moment.

"I understand."

Yi Chichi stared at him intently, the immobile team leader got angry, "What, do you want it now?"

"It’s going to have to be opened sooner or later."

The implication being, the sooner it opens, the less trouble.

Noting the conversation between Uncle Yaozi and Lang, she smiled charmingly, "Besides, Uncle Yaozi is now assessing Mr. Lang’s level of knowledge in Chinese medicine, which you don’t understand."

These words hit home, the team leader was silent for two seconds, then stood up reluctantly with a helpless look, "Come on, let’s go get the family visit certificate for you."

Sure enough, he didn’t understand.

If he had been able to remember the effects and properties of every medicinal material back then, he wouldn’t have ended up being the team leader, and he might have been the village doctor of Kao Shan Village.

It’s a pity...

Recalling his experience of being inexplicably pushed into the position of team leader, he couldn’t help but wish to shed tears of bitterness for himself.

Yi Chichi couldn’t feel his pain, but she noticed his disheartenment while following behind the team leader towards the team department, she asked a question but got no answer, so she remained silent.

Fifteen minutes later, with the family visit certificate and letter of introduction ready, Yi Chichi looked at the seal of the Kao Shan Village production team and the signatures of the team leader and others below, grinning widely.

Secretary, being called over to sign, saw her like this, found her annoying, "You’re this happy just to go out and play, huh."

The tone was quite sarcastic.

Yi Chichi looked up in surprise, "Uncle, look at what you’re saying, Aunt Ma goes back to her mother’s home for a few days and you talk about it, I haven’t seen Wen Shi for so long, of course, I’d be happy to go see him."

It’s not like I would cry.

The secretary... there was no way to respond to this.

Truly blocked.

He was aggrieved, the team leader just laughed, "Why did you provoke her for no reason."

This girl doesn’t like to cause trouble, she greets everyone with a smile, but sometimes her words can be quite unforgiving.

With a sting.

"Yes, I am very obedient."

Yi Chichi shamelessly praised herself, the secretary almost spat blood, this child is absolutely not humble at all.

Feeling his pocket, he pulled out a banknote and handed it over, "Help buy some dried fruits and seafood to bring back."

"Okay."

Yi Chichi reached out to take the money, the team leader felt his pocket, finding a dime and two pennies, which he couldn’t take out.

"Why don’t you wait for me, I’ll go home and get you some money."

Initially planning to refuse, saying that she could take the money when she returned, Yi Chichi changed her mind when she saw the banknote in her hand given by the secretary.

"Okay, I’ll wait for you here, uncle."

With that, the team leader dashed home.

The secretary took out a thermos filled with cool boiled water, poured her a cup, "You spend eight dollars on things, and the remaining two dollars is for you to buy candy."

Two dollars worth of candy was generous in those days, but bringing goods from the southernmost part of the country to the northernmost part wasn’t enough to look at.

Of course, the account shouldn’t be calculated like that.

Among neighbors, some can account like close brothers, but some can’t.

Unfortunately, the secretary, team leader, Uncle Yaozi, and several elder uncles and great-grandmothers in the village belong to those who can’t treat close brothers like that.

If it wasn’t for these people taking responsibility and taking care of Wen Shi and Wen’s mother, Wen Shi wouldn’t have had a chance to succeed, and Wen’s mother wouldn’t have been taken care of so well when her health was bad by Aunt Ma and the others.

Leaving Wen Shi with no worries.

This favor, she may not take for herself, but she had to understand human relationships.

So, she nodded, "Okay."

She agreed readily on the surface, but she was determined to use ten dollars to buy goods to the fullest for them.

When she returned home with the tip from the team leader and a few pounds of pine nuts to tell Wen’s mother, she nodded repeatedly, saying that it was the right thing to do.

Of course, she also couldn’t bear for Yi Chichi to be burdened, advising, "After buying the stuff, just mail it back, so you don’t have to struggle with big bags when coming back."

Qin Jiu, who was writing homework, looked up at the big bags in the house and asked, "Grandma, are these pine nuts also to be sent out?"

"Send."

Otherwise, with so much stuff carried by the daughter-in-law, it would be too tiring.

Worried about eating poorly and not sleeping well while watching things, she might lose several pounds after one trip back and forth, and her heart would ache.

"Send them out tomorrow."

Upon saying this, she realized she forgot to ask Yi Chichi when she was leaving.

"The day after tomorrow."

Wen’s mother made an "oh" sound, "When will you be back?"

Knowing the departure date and wanting to know when Yi Chichi would return, Qin Jiu perked up his ears.

Yi Chichi just smiled, "Around June 7th or so."

"Going for so long?!"

Qin Jiu looked reluctant, Wen’s mother patted his head, "The year has 12 months, you only miss your aunt for one month, but your uncle misses her for the whole 11 months, comparing it like this, do you still think it’s long?"

"Not long!"

A happy life requires comparison to achieve satisfaction.

Thinking his uncle only saw his aunt once in so long, Qin Jiu felt fortunate to have his aunt for 11 months!

Thinking of this, he advised Yi Chichi, "Aunt, when you see uncle, be nicer to him, he can only see you for a few days a year, it’s quite pitiful!"

Yi Chichi nodded, "Okay, Aunt will definitely be good to your uncle."

Since tomorrow needed to send things to Wen Shi at the commune, Wen’s mother’s urgency emerged.

She checked the items prepared for Wen Shi once again, still feeling there wasn’t enough, and took Yi Chichi to friendly neighbors to scour (purchase) dried goods like black fungus, pine nuts, and mushrooms, packing another parcel before stopping.
