Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just contributed a few pills to the army."
The military wives couldn't help but talk about it when they heard this.
"So they gave me medicine, then why did they give me a banner? It's too easy to give it."
"Yeah, didn't I give you a few pills? Is it necessary to make such a big fuss?"
The ones who spoke were Lu Shan and Li Meilian. Neither of them felt that what Tang Xiaorou had done was worthy of being awarded a banner. They just felt that the leader thought too highly of her.
Bai Zhen glared at the two of them and said, "Do you know that medicine is very rare? What's more, the fact that the leader gave Xiaorou a silk banner is enough to show that the medicine she gave is very precious, the kind that most people would not be willing to give out."
Tang Xiaorou didn't care about what they said. She knew the value of medicine and that she deserved it. But she was grateful to Bai Zhen for speaking for her. "Thank you, Bai Zhen."
Bai Zhen waved her head and said, "Why thank you? This is the fact."
Tang Xiaorou took the banner with a smile in her eyes. She didn't expect that her superiors had prepared so much. She couldn't help but feel moved and proud. This banner represented that her efforts were recognized and rewarded.
Seeing Tang Xiaorou accept the banner, the two men saluted her and left.
The military wives surrounded Tang Xiaorou, wanting to see the banner. Tang Xiaorou also showed off her generosity to others. Some were envious and some were jealous. Of course, there were also some who disliked her. Lu Shan and Li Meilian didn't like Tang Xiaorou and thought that this little girl from the countryside had a lot of faults.
"Hmph... I don't know what kind of medicine you donated. I don't know if it's useful or not."
Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou glanced at the two of them coldly and said, "Since the higher-ups have given you a banner, it means that the medicine you gave me is for your own use. Otherwise, do you really think you can get approval just by doing it casually? Are you doubting the higher-ups' judgment?"
Lu Shan and Li Meilian naturally didn't dare to think so. After glaring at Tang Xiaorou, they turned around and left.
"Xiao Rou, ignore them."
Bai Zhen quickly comforted her, and Qian Manzhu beside her said: "Yes, Xiaorou, they are just jealous of you, you don't have to take it to heart." But while speaking, she found that Tang Xiaorou's skirt was very beautiful.
"Xiao Rou, where did you buy this skirt? It's very unique and beautiful. I plan to buy one for my daughter-in-law as well."
Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou smiled and shook her head and said, "Aunt, this skirt was not bought, it was made by my mother. Her skills are getting better and better now."
When everyone heard this, they looked over in surprise.
"This skirt was also made by your mother?"
"Yeah, she's very skillful, and her skills are getting better and better."
Bai Zhen thought of the bed sheets and quilt covers she had asked Qin Xueqiong to help make before, and she felt eager again. She wanted Qin Xueqiong to help make the skirt, but she didn't say it on the spot. She found an opportunity and quietly told Tang Xiaorou.
Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou smiled and said, "Of course, my mother would be very happy if she knew that her art was recognized."
Bai Zhen was delighted when she heard this. "That's great. I'll go see Aunt Qin tomorrow."
On the next day, Bai Zhen took the cloth and went directly to find Qin Xueqiong.
Qin Xueqiong had heard her daughter talk about this in the morning, so she took out the skirt drawings her daughter had drawn and let Bai Zhen choose for herself, "See which one you like."
Bai Zhen didn't expect that she could choose by herself. She looked at the three drawings in front of her and thought that each one was beautiful. She really wanted to have every one of them.
Thinking of this, Bai Zhen waved her hand and said, "Aunt Qin, can you take all three of these? The other two kinds of fabrics will be delivered tomorrow."
Qin Xueqiong was stunned when she heard this, "You want to make three? Isn't that too much?"
"No, I can change them every day."
Qin Xueqiong tried to persuade him a few more times, but Bai Zhen had no shortage of money, so she agreed to make three.
"Okay, bring the rest of the fabric tomorrow."
"good."
After Bai Zhen left, she immediately went to the town to buy cloth. When she came back with the cloth the next day, the skirt had already been made. She said in surprise, "Aunt Qin, you are so fast."
"I had nothing to do, so I spent the whole day making skirts."
It was really convenient to use the sewing machine, so Qin Xueqiong worked very quickly.
After Bai Zhen received the skirt, she went back and changed into it. She felt very happy and surprised at the novel style and beautiful skirt. When she wore it out, she attracted praises from other military wives.
Soon, everyone else knew that the skirt was made by Tang Xiaorou's mother, and some people also wanted to make skirts, and more and more people asked Qin Xueqiong to make clothes.
Qin Xueqiong began to get busy. Her craftsmanship was superb, and the styles designed by Tang Xiaorou were fashionable and novel. Every finished product was praised by everyone.
"Mom, the skirts you make are getting more and more beautiful now."
Tang Xiaorou had only designed a few skirts in total, but she found that her mother had made some modifications to the original designs, making them even more beautiful.
"That's because you designed it beautifully."
"Mom, it's your talent. You really have this kind of talent. The skirts you make will definitely appear on the streets in the future."
Hearing her daughter's words, Qin Xueqiong couldn't help but think about that scene, and she felt very excited. "I hope it will be like this too."
Tang Xiaorou was happy for her mother, but Shen Huaixu received a heavy news that Shen Huaian was not in good condition after returning.
Tang Xiaorou also soon learned the news.
Shen Huaixu was very worried about his elder brother and wanted to go over to check on him.
After Tang Xiaorou learned about it, she planned to go with him, "He was my elder brother who helped me with the treatment before, so I should go and see him too."
"good."
Tang Xiaorou and Shen Huaixu embarked on a journey to Shandong Province where Shen Huaian was. Along the way, Shen Huaixu was full of worries. He didn't know what Shen Huaian's specific situation was, so he could only pray silently for his well-being.
When they arrived at their destination and saw Shen Huaian's haggard face, Shen Huaixu's heart tightened, and he hurried forward to ask about his eldest brother's condition.
Shen Huaian forced a smile and told them not to worry, he would recover slowly.
"Brother, stop talking and take care of yourself."
Tang Xiaorou hurried forward and began to take Shen Huaian's pulse. She had clearly cured him almost completely before, but why did Shen Huaian's condition deteriorate again after he returned to his unit?
"Sister-in-law, please come along too."
Tang Xiaorou quickly shook her head and said, "Brother, don't say that. The most important task now is to cure you. We can talk about the other things later."
Seeing Tang Xiaorou say this, Shen Huaian didn't say anything more.
When Shen Huaixu saw Tang Xiaorou retract her hand, he hurriedly asked, "Xiaorou, how is it? Is Big Brother okay?"
