Chapter 9 No Pipe

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they began to talk:

"Oh! This girl turned out to be a country builder. I was wondering why she looked so familiar."

"Jianguo is right. We must act according to our conscience."

"That's right. The peanuts from our village are the best in the surrounding area. We must not let anyone say bad things about our village!"

"Yes, not only can you not eat it yourself, you can't sell it to others!"

For a time, the peanuts from Nanzhule Village became an object that the villagers were determined to defend to the death.

Su Xiaoli was moved by the simplicity of the folks and their collective honor. These spirits were hard to see when Dr. Su lived.

She couldn't help but say a few more words.

“Dear elders, not only peanuts, but also walnuts and chestnuts from our mountains, as well as chopsticks and cutting boards used at home, can be exposed to the sun more often.

But if it is moldy, throw it away immediately, otherwise it can easily lead to poisoning and cancer."

"Girl, you are also a college student studying medicine, right?" A grandmother, leaning on a cane, spoke tremblingly.

Su Xiaoli smiled and said nothing.

"Your family has good feng shui. Your father is a college student, the first in the village."

"Grandma, do you know my dad too?"

"How could I not know him? Jianguo is quite a capable man. He is well-educated and holds a high position. When the reservoir was being built, my husband went to work and he had to ask him to sign and approve the wages."

This grandma doesn't know the difference between an engineer and an official. She only knows that those who pay the approving salary are powerful people.

Su Xiaoli smiled at her and was about to say something when she saw Su Yuhe rushing over.

It was Aunt Wu who found him in her own field. The couple hurried to the playground, fearing that the teenage Su Xiaoli would suffer any harm.

As a result, when Su Yuhe walked closer, he found that Su Xiaoli was not bullied, but instead aroused everyone's sense of collective honor!

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" Su Yuhe breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, Grandpa Su. The peanuts from this lady are not up to standard. I'm communicating with her now."

Su Yuhe turned his head and looked at Zhang Cuihua. This woman was famous for being lazy and gluttonous.

He was of high seniority and had great prestige, so he didn't bother to be polite with Zhang Cuihua and attacked her fiercely.

"These are last year's peanuts, right? Your family didn't plant them this year, and the land on the ridge is still lying idle!"

Zhang Cuihua was hit on the face by the village chief and her face turned blue and white, making her unable to face the situation.

The peanuts in her hand were indeed last year's peanuts. They had been piled in the cellar since they were harvested and had never been exposed to the sun.

She disliked the fact that the land she was allocated was on a hill, and she was too lazy to climb the hill to cultivate it, so she simply left the land there idle.

Today, I suddenly heard a loud speaker saying that I could exchange peanuts for money and sugar, so I quickly packed up a basket of peanuts from the cellar.

Su Yuhe suppressed his anger and cleared his throat.

"I've made it clear today. Xiaoli is Jianguo's daughter, and that means she is a child from our village.

She won't sell moldy peanuts to others, and we, the peanut supplier, can't bring shame to the village. Our village must not have that kind of bad reputation!"

He is worthy of being a village cadre for many years. His words are powerful and resounding. Su Xiaoli silently gave Grandpa Su a thumbs up in her heart.

Zhang Cuihua's shoulders trembled and she wanted to say something, but unfortunately she didn't dare to offend the village chief even if she had ten guts.

Seeing Su Yuhe's unhappy face, she picked up the basket thrown on the ground and glared at Su Xiaoli fiercely, "If you don't want to take it, then don't take it. What's the big deal..."

Zhang Cuihua ran away mumbling something.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the other few people who brought the moldy peanuts also left quickly.

After all this trouble, the remaining peanuts were harvested very smoothly.

Su Xiaoli didn't take what happened just now to heart, and threw herself into the plan of making money again.

She worked until after 3 o'clock, and had spent all the money and supplies she brought, in exchange for more than 100 kilograms of wet peanuts and more than 60 kilograms of dry peanuts.

He borrowed a hemp rope from Su Yuhe, tied the two sacks tightly to the bicycle, and returned to the city before getting off work to return the bicycle to Li Zhengde.

When she got home, she didn't even have time to eat. She carried the duck meat that Grandma Su had just stewed, walked around the unit and the road, and came to the gate of the staff compound again.

Fortunately, the reputation of the stewed duck last night had already been spread through the promotion of the aunties in the courtyard.

As soon as the pot was brought over today, someone came up and asked for a bowl.

Su Xiaoli was selling stewed duck meat when she felt a dull pain in her thigh, which had been pierced by glass.

I guess the wound was blistered when I was catching ducks, and I pedaled my bike too hard in the afternoon, which tore the wound. I have been tormented by all kinds of things in the past few days, and my little body is exhausted...

The pain slowly spread from the wound to the surrounding area and then to the whole body.

By the time Su Xiaoli walked back home carrying the empty pot, her back was already soaked with sweat.

Grandma Su noticed that her face looked strange, so she reached out to touch her red head, then pulled her hand back as if it had been touched by fire.

"Xiao Li, why are you so burned?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Su Xiaoli looked dazed, forcing her hazy eyes open. "Grandma, it's okay, it's just that the wound is inflamed. I'll just go to the clinic and get some medicine..."

Grandma Su felt a little flustered.

She gave birth to four children. Before Su Lanying, she had a daughter, who died of a fever when she was young because she had no medicine.

The old lady gets frightened every time she sees her children at home having a fever.

"Hurry! Go quickly! Grandma will go with you."

"It's okay, grandma, I know the way. This is what I earned tonight, take it." Su Xiaoli handed the more than 10 yuan in his hand to Grandma Su.

Grandma Su pushed her hand away.

"Are you crazy? You don't care about money anymore. Your life is more important, girl!"

Without waiting for Su Xiaoli to speak, Grandma Su grabbed her hand and walked towards the health center.

Fortunately, there was someone on duty at the clinic at night, and that was Doctor Luo, who bandaged Su Xiaoli's wound that day.

Doctor Luo had been practicing medicine for many years. After a quick examination, he immediately determined that the high fever was caused by wound inflammation and overwork.

Su Xiaoli was placed on the hospital bed, and Grandma Su followed Dr. Luo to get the medicine.

"Auntie, Su Xiaoli's fever is very severe. It's best to give her an IV to control the high fever first."

"Okay, we'll do whatever you say, but you must not let anything happen to Xiaoli. This girl has had a hard life." Grandma Su's voice trembled.

Doctor Luo patted Grandma Su on the shoulder, picked up the pen, and quickly wrote a prescription on the list.

"Then I'll prescribe her a bottle of fever-reducing IV drip, and finish the infusion here, and then we'll see how the situation goes."

Grandma Su took the prescription to see the nurse, but the young nurse looked embarrassed.

"What's wrong? Is this medicine wrong?" Grandma Su stamped her feet anxiously.

The young nurse shook her head.

"No, Auntie, Dr. Luo's medicine is fine. There are also IV drips for fever reduction, but there is no IV tube..."

"What? There is no IV tube?" Doctor Luo just happened to walk over, looking surprised.

"The last time the city health bureau inspected us, they said the rubber of our reusable infusion tubes was aging and not properly disinfected, which could easily lead to cross infection, so they had us destroy them all.

But the disposable infusion tubes that the Municipal Bureau promised to provide have not yet arrived..."

The young nurse's voice became lower and lower as she spoke.
