Chapter 72 Giving Xia Fanxing an Unexpected Reward
Qiao Feitian's words caused another uproar in the audience!
All eyes were on Xie Jingchen.
Xie Jingchen's eyes were cold and deep, and his hands, which were placed on his lap, unconsciously clenched tightly.
Although he had suspected before that the folk remedy might not have been Qiao Feitian's idea, he did not expect that after the matter was exposed, Qiao Feitian would actually use the child to get away with it.
How could she be so despicable?!
Xie Jingchen was extremely disappointed and angry with Qiao Feitian, but he had to admit that Qiao Feitian's tactic was really effective.
The word "children" is Xie Jingchen's Achilles' heel and a responsibility he cannot shirk.
So even though he knew it was Qiao Feitian's conspiracy, an excuse she wanted to use to escape punishment, Xie Jingchen still stood up, walked to the podium, bowed to the division leaders, and took all the blame upon himself.
Given Xie Jingchen's performance, what could the division leaders possibly say?
Punishing Xie Jingchen is absolutely out of the question; in the end, this matter has nothing to do with Xie Jingchen.
But we can't let this matter pass by so easily.
Qiao Feitian must be punished, otherwise where will the division leaders and the corps put their faces?
After some discussion, the division leadership decided—
First, immediately revoke all honorary titles, commendations, and material rewards awarded to Qiao Feitian;
Second, Qiao Feitian was required to make the most profound self-criticism at the general meeting of all employees and admit her mistakes;
Third, Qiao Feitian should be immediately removed from her position as a broadcaster and transferred to the most arduous agricultural production team for labor reform until she gives birth to her child, after which other arrangements will be made depending on the circumstances.
Upon hearing these punishments, Qiao Feitian felt as if struck by lightning, collapsing to the ground and remaining stunned for a long time.
This time, it's not just a short day of being an employee of the agricultural company, but several months, several years, or even a lifetime!
Although she was pregnant with Xie Jingchen's "child," the agricultural company certainly wouldn't dare assign her particularly heavy work, but she definitely couldn't escape the dirty and tiring tasks.
Moreover, the term "labor reform" was a severe label that completely shattered her future.
In a single day, she went from a glamorous broadcaster to a lowly agricultural worker whom anyone could trample on. How could she maintain her sense of superiority? How could she distinguish herself from the NPCs in the book?
She's a transmigrator from a book!
"Furthermore..." The division commander looked at Xia Fanxing, scrutinizing her with a serious gaze, "Did you come up with the folk remedies? Did you cure the parasite outbreak in the army?"
Xia Fanxing stood still, calmly and composedly accepting everyone's scrutiny.
She nodded and said, "It's me. I can answer any question from anyone."
Over the next ten minutes, a barrage of questions flooded Xia Fanxing.
Xia Fanxing's expression remained unchanged throughout, and she answered fluently and appeared relaxed.
The questioners either showed expressions of sudden realization, delight, or awe, nodding repeatedly.
Without a doubt, Xia Fanxing was the real strategist, and it was she who ended the parasite epidemic that had baffled both the regimental and divisional hospitals!
Someone whispered something in the ear of the division commander, whose expression changed slightly. He first looked at Xie Jingchen, then at Xia Fanxing.
He cleared his throat, held up the microphone, and said, "Since Comrade Xia has made such great contributions to the Corps, these two incidents are enough to prove Comrade Xia's medical skills. So, taking this opportunity, I hereby announce: Comrade Xia is officially transferred to the Regimental Hospital as a nurse, effective today!"
Xia Fanxing was very surprised, she didn't expect that today would bring two happy events.
Li Zhengjie clapped enthusiastically, tears streaming down his face. He quickly wiped them away, smiled brightly, and clapped even harder.
His savior deserves the best of everything in the world!
Qiao Feitian looked at Xia Fanxing in the clapping crowd, and saw her become the new focus. She couldn't help but clench her teeth, her fingers almost digging into the ground.
Why was she demoted while Xia Fanxing was promoted?
Her status and treatment were completely reversed with Xia Fanxing; she became the dirty dust on the ground, while Xia Fanxing became the unattainable bright moon in the sky.
She was not convinced; she was not reconciled!
But given the current situation, no matter how much dissatisfaction she had, she couldn't utter a single word.
She could only endure it and wait for another suitable opportunity...
After the unpleasant meeting ended, the crowd dispersed.
The division leaders specifically spoke to Xia Fanxing: "Comrade Xia, when Regiment Commander Xie came to report to the division before, he said he would vouch for you and make you a doctor at the regimental hospital, but due to your situation... we didn't agree. This time, although you're only being offered a nursing position, now that you're in the medical system, you can be promoted step by step. With your abilities, let alone becoming a doctor, it's only a matter of time before you're promoted to chief physician at the division."
Xia Fanxing remained composed and said calmly, "Thank you, Commander. I understand your concerns and what it means for me to be part of the medical system. Rest assured, Commander, I will not let down the Corps and the people. I will do my best and be loyal to the Corps and the country."
Xia Fanxing spoke beautifully and thoughtfully, and the division leaders nodded repeatedly, their faces full of appreciation.
After all the leaders had left, Su Xiuxiu, Zhao Niu, and other educated youth from the agricultural company came to congratulate Xia Fanxing.
"Sister Fanxing, I knew you couldn't stay in the agricultural corps forever. We're all so happy for you that you're going to be a nurse!" Su Xiuxiu cried and laughed at the same time, her emotions complex and excited.
"A golden carp is no ordinary fish; it transforms into a dragon when it encounters wind and clouds. Comrade Xia, you are destined for a bright future!" Zhao Niu's eyes were also filled with tears, and his words were full of passion and enthusiasm.
Looking into those sincere eyes before her, Xia Fanxing was deeply moved.
She put her arm around Su Xiuxiu's shoulder, looked at everyone and said, "I will never forget how much everyone has taken care of me during this time. In the future, it will be the same as before. If you have any minor illnesses or pains, you can still come to me. I will treat you privately and for free!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and the group of people made a ruckus, creating a harmonious and wonderful atmosphere.
Standing not far away, Li Zhengjie watched this scene with great envy.
But remembering his identity, he silently turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Xia Fanxing's voice came from behind.
Li Zhengjie froze.
Xia Fanxing jogged over, her smile faint but warm, "Comrade Li Zhengjie, thanks to you as a witness, otherwise it wouldn't have been possible to prove my contribution so smoothly."
Li Zhengjie didn't even dare to raise his head, waving his hands and shaking his head repeatedly, "...I didn't do anything. Even without me, you can prove yourself..."
"So I just made a request to the division leaders, and they agreed." Xia Fanxing smiled faintly, then said in a deliberately serious voice, "Comrade Li Zhengjie, would you be willing to work as an ordinary employee in the agricultural company?"
