Chapter 37 Fake Injury



Grandpa Wang didn't ask anything.

This young educated youth's unusual physical condition is her own business, and she has no right to tell anyone.

So, he handed some ointment for external wounds to Su Qiao.

Su Qiao felt much more at ease upon seeing this.

The book says he is not a busybody and doesn't like to gossip.

This gamble paid off.

Lu Xiangze originally wanted to send the person back, but Su Qiao refused.

Su Qiao chatted with Grandpa Wang for a few more minutes, and after confirming that Lu Xiangze had gone far away, she made sure he was out of sight.

"Dr. Wang, thank you so much this time. You should charge me for the ointment now."

Su Qiao pulled out her banknotes.

Dr. Wang waved his hand, "The eldest son of the Lu family has already paid. He said that it was all his sister's fault, and the medical expenses should be paid by the Lu family."

Su Qiao nodded and didn't say anything more.

He picked up the ointment, put it in his basket, and then, pretending to limp, carried the basket home.

Su Qiao is in a good mood right now.

Little White is licking its paws in the space.

His little expression was full of smugness.

"Master, how was it? Aren't I amazing?"

"You can speak now?"

"Hmm~ I know more than just these now. I've absorbed everything from those four jars and leveled up."

"Will other people be able to hear what you're saying?"

"Of course not."

Thinking about the good deed he had just done, Xiao Bai immediately played a short GIF on repeat in his social media space.

It turned into a white shadow and kicked Lu Xiaomei from behind, causing her to fall flat on her face.

She was just lucky; there weren't many trees around.

Xiao Bai gave her a pill, and she immediately woke up in pain.

They pestered passersby to take her to the clinic.

What did you feed her?

"I learned it from the jar..."

When this was mentioned, Xiaobai immediately launched into a long and detailed explanation.

Soon, Su Qiao also returned to the courtyard.

Then I saw a figure wearing a straw raincoat standing in front of the door.

"Su, you really scared me to death."

The young girl, Lu Xiang, looked full of guilt, and her voice was trembling with tears.

The rain had stopped long ago, but she still hadn't taken off her raincoat.

Su Qiao responded.

He walked towards her.

Lu Xiang quickly came up to help him.

"I heard them talking about wild boars when I came down the mountain, and when I turned around I realized you were gone. I'm so sorry, thankfully..."

Lu Xiang's tears kept falling.

"I...I heard that two other people were hit as well. Were your injuries caused by the collision?"

Su Qiao looked at the girl in front of her who was crying anxiously and gently patted her head.

"It's okay, I'm fine now. By the way, how did you know I was back?"

"It was Brother Xiangze who told me. He told me when I went back to find someone to go up the mountain to rescue you. I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I even said I would take good care of you."

Su Qiao knew that Lu Xiang was not a bad person; she just hadn't considered that Lu Xiang was actually a complete novice.

This was just an accident; there's no reason for the little girl to be so sad.

“I can go again next time. But I’ll have to ask you to teach me some techniques. I feel like all those mushrooms have grown legs. They’re everywhere on the mountainside, but I don’t see any in front of me.”

Where do mushrooms grow legs?

Seeing that she really didn't care and even tried to lie to her, Lu Xiang sniffed and laughed.

"Okay, next time I'll tell you all my secrets for finding mushrooms."

The two had just put their things down.

The outside area became lively.

Yao Qing and Li Yanhong both came looking for them.

"Su Zhiqing, Su Zhiqing, someone in the team hunted a wild boar today and they're going to share it with everyone. Let's go quickly."

Qingshui Brigade had the best treatment of educated youth in Qing'an Commune.

There isn't much difference in treatment on a regular basis.

The educated youth also got a share of the meat from the wild boar hunt.

The educated youth hadn't eaten meat in a long time.

This time, even Li Yanhong was somewhat pleased.

The two entered the room excitedly, only to find that Su Qiao's arm and foot injuries were just abrasions.

Yao Qing was extremely worried, and even the joy of about to eat meat faded considerably.

Su Qiao gave a brief explanation to reassure the two of them.

Li Yanhong's gaze kept drifting towards the door, and Su Qiao knew she shouldn't let them stay any longer.

"You guys hurry up and go, or you won't get any good ones if you're late."

Yao Qing then remembered and stood up, "Then we'll take your share back too!"

Lu Xiang was feeling guilty, and upon hearing this, she immediately said, "I'll go get Sister Su's share."

After saying that, he rushed out of the yard like a small whirlwind.

Su Qiao was both amused and exasperated.

The child suddenly called her "sister" and ran so fast; could it be that he's shy?

Seeing that Lu Xiang had run away, Yao Qing and the other person quickly set off as well.

The brigade's threshing ground.

An oval-shaped wooden tube was placed to the side.

The hot water inside is steaming.

Next to it was a pig-slaughtering stool about one meter long.

Various pig-slaughtering knives were laid out on the stool.

Everyone surrounded this small area, three layers deep.

For things that children can't see, adults can let them ride on their shoulders.

The butcher was an experienced butcher; the brigade leader had specially invited him back from the neighboring brigade.

Soon, the wild boar had been roughly cleaned up and placed on the slaughtering bench.

Everyone was overjoyed. With such a big wild boar, each household should be able to get at least two or three kilograms.

Everyone wanted to be the first one.

The captain told them to line up, but they pretended not to hear him.

He became an instant sensation.

Standing on the stool, he focused his energy in his dantian and shouted, "Quiet!"

Everyone immediately fell silent.

"Line up properly and don't push! If anyone pushes, that family won't get any food."

A few people were unconvinced and muttered under their breath, but were immediately pulled back by others.

The crowd also became more orderly.

Lu Fugui then got down satisfied.

In front of everyone, he first gave Lu Xiangze and his two brothers a few extra kilograms before starting to distribute the rest.

Some people who weren't in line were puzzled.

They only knew that the team had hunted wild boars, but they didn't know that it was actually Lu Xiangze and his teammates who had done it.

Families with daughters of marriageable age began to consider this idea.

"Xiang Ze is getting on in years, how come he still doesn't have a girlfriend?"

"He went to serve in the army before. His mother has high standards, I guess."

"And now?"

"He's disabled now. Can't you see he's limping and has an uneven leg?"

"But didn't he also hunt a wild boar? With skills like that, he can support his family by hunting in the future."

Aunt Ye smiled and looked at the person next to her who had developed a thought.

"Didn't you see the other two people? They'll be going back to the army sooner or later, so it's not impossible that they're giving that kid face now."

Upon hearing this, the other two immediately gave up their plans.

The topic was changed.

Aunt Ye crossed her arms and smiled smugly.

With her around, that Lu family brat can forget about getting past her house safely!

Lu Xiangze stood at the back of the crowd, chatting casually with the captain.

Lu Xiaomei stood in the crowd receiving meat.

He glared fiercely at Lu Xiangze.
