Looking at Kan Lei pretending to be affectionate in front of her, Ma Su wanted to roll her eyes. Doesn't this guy ever look in the mirror when he's acting? He doesn't even see how obviously fake he is. If she didn't want to get some information about Gu Zuozuo from her, she wouldn't meet him.
"Kan Zhiqing, do you know all the educated youth in your educated youth center?"
Kan Lei's eyes flashed, and he became extremely alert.
What did this village girl mean by asking him this question now? Could it be that she had set her sights on another male educated youth? That was impossible. Ever since that pretty boy surnamed Duan was transferred away, he had always considered himself as good as any other male educated youth in the entire educated youth center. Who could she possibly set her sights on?
Thinking that the cooked duck was about to fly away, Kan Lei almost vomited blood in frustration. He had worked hard for almost a year, and now someone was going to snatch his opportunity away from him?
"I don't know much about it. Susu, do you have something to ask them? If you have anything, you can tell me and I will help you."
When she heard him say that he was not familiar with her, Ma Su started to daydream and became distracted.
She couldn't afford to offend Gu Zuozuo, nor was she easy to provoke. She had realized that with her rookie skills, she could only be abused in front of her. But when she thought about the short deadline her boss had given her, she was worried and wanted to scratch her head. Asking for external help was impossible. After all, there were only a few people in their National Abnormal Bureau, and they all had missions to complete. Who could she ask? Xie Jinyu, the only one who was closest to her, was so busy that she had no time to pay attention to her.
"Susu?"
After being called several times, Ma Su finally came back to her senses. She responded with a couple of “hmm”s while still thinking about how to seduce the great Gu Zuozuo.
"Susu, are you blaming me for not protecting our new house? Don't worry, I will definitely drive those three women, Gu Zuozuo, away and make them vacate the house. I will then take you out of that house!"
"Wait for me, don't be anxious, okay..."
"Wait, what did you just say? Who were you driving away?"
Kan Lei was stunned for a moment and asked back uncertainly.
"Gu Zuozuo, what's wrong?"
Ma Su looked at him with a look of madness on her face. He still wanted to drive that great god away? How many kilograms of peanuts did he drink to get so drunk? Given that woman's explosive fighting ability, if murder wasn't illegal, she would definitely tear this man apart.
"Are you sure you can get her out of the educated youth center?"
What on earth was Ma Su thinking? How could she actually fall for such a hypocritical man? Even if she looked at a few more men, she wouldn't be so fooled by this idiot in front of her.
Kan Lei nodded excitedly and started planning in his mind what he should do to drive those three people out.
Ma Su nodded with satisfaction. If the three of them were kicked out, she would go to Gu Zuozuo to show her love and warmth. Then, she would use the conciliatory policy that her boss had mentioned to trick her into joining the National Foreign Affairs Bureau. The thought of it made her feel so happy.
A middle-aged man, writing in the back of his office, sneezed suddenly, frowned, rubbed his nose, and counted on his fingers. "That girl's been gone for almost ten days, right? Why is there no news at all? Has she been screwed again?"
Gu Zuozuo slapped off the leech that was wriggling on his leg, bent down and quickly planted the seedlings. The speed was so fast that the aunties and sisters watching nearby were stunned.
"Wow, what did Gu Zhiqing eat to grow up? Why is he so powerful?"
How could they, who had been farming for most of their lives, lose to a girl from the city?
Duan Jianhua stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the busy members with satisfaction. It was worth it that he still had a few fallen hairs on his head, because look at how hard these members were working!
"Captain! Gousheng was bitten by a snake!"
The joy didn't last long, as a heart-wrenching roar brought me back to reality.
Every day, there are always things going on!
"Gu Zhiqing! Stop it! Someone's been bitten by a snake!"
Gu Zuozuo stood up with a sigh, washed the mud off his legs, and quickened his pace towards the team leader.
After the two men left, the aunties and sisters who stayed behind began to whisper and gossip, and then they talked about people who were bitten by snakes. As the topic spread, it became more and more bizarre.
"What? A snake bit someone?"
"What did you say? Someone was bitten to death by a snake?"
"What the hell? Someone killed a snake?"
By the time I got home from work at noon, the rumor had spread to the point that someone had eaten a live snake.
The person who was bitten was a boy of about seven or eight years old. He was dirty and crying for breath. His trouser legs had been rolled up, revealing two black and purple teeth marks on them.
"How did you get bit by a snake?"
The woman holding the child angrily twisted her son's ear, looking as if she wanted to beat him up.
"This naughty kid was bored and went to dig a rabbit hole. He ended up getting bit by a snake, and it was a venomous one at that."
Gu Zuozuo checked his wound, and while he was still crying loudly in his mother's arms, he took out his dagger, cut a cross on it, squeezed out the poisonous blood, and gave him a few injections to clear the remaining poison, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay. The one that bit him was a pit viper, scientifically known as Ussuri Agkistrodon, also known as Grass Fly or Seven-Cun Seed. It's just bad luck for the kid. This snake only came out of hibernation in May, and as soon as it came out of its hole, it ran into you, blocking someone's door. Who else could it bite if not you?"
"Sister-in-law, these are detoxification pills. Take two a day and you'll be fine in two days."
As he spoke, he reached out and rubbed the boy's head, then took the box off his head like a magic trick and opened it, revealing two candies lying inside.
The boy named Gousheng opened his eyes wide in shock, and a big bubble of snot popped out of his nose, making everyone laugh.
"From now on, don't dig every hole you see. Most rabbit holes have small entrances, grass, and rabbit poop. Look carefully before you dig."
The boy held the sweet candy in his mouth and nodded in agreement to the person who gave him the candy.
He pulled out the silver needle with swift movements, put it into the needle bag and went back to disinfect it. Looking at the captain who was still hesitant to speak, he raised his eyebrows, knowing what he was going to do next.
Duan Jianhua rubbed his hands with a smile, and looked at the flower that bloomed in the land of Gu Zuozuo, the educated youth, and felt so happy in his heart.
"Gu Zhiqing, the registration period for the barefoot doctor training has arrived. I've registered you, and you can go to the county tomorrow to study. You'll have to be gone for a week, though. When you come back, you'll be a bona fide barefoot doctor in our team!"
Gu Zuozuo curled the corners of her mouth. She liked their captain's overwhelming self-confidence.
"Are you not afraid that I won't be selected?"
"How can that be? If even you can't be selected, then wouldn't it be a waste of time for everyone else?"
"Captain, you are so nice to hear my words. I wish you good luck."
This time when Gu Zuozuo went to the county to study, no one at the village youth cadre center raised any objection. They were convinced of her strength, whether in medical skills or other areas. They had to admit it even if they didn't want to, because they couldn't beat her or scold her.
