Chapter Fifty: Meat Distribution
"I'm quite low-key."
She doesn't fight, doesn't argue, doesn't try to stand out, doesn't flaunt her wealth or beauty, and works diligently every day. Who is as low-key as her?
After thinking for a long time, Gu Zuozuo couldn't figure out where she was being arrogant. She answered the system's question with a firm and serious tone.
The system rolled its eyes. "She's the one who's low-key?"
"Gu Zhiqing! Come quick! Time to divide the meat!"
Butcher Ma Yingjie brandished his cleaver, laughing heartily. The thick, dark skin on his face didn't look so ferocious or scary.
He's probably the only person in this era, besides a chef, who can get fat.
"Okay, coming."
Wolf meat is actually not very tasty; it has a strong gamey smell and the meat is sour, bitter, and astringent. However, it is quite good for medicinal purposes.
Seeing her fair and rosy complexion under the snow, and her delicate features, many young men lying on the ground groaning secretly glanced over, giving her a shy smile with each look, and then another smile with each glance.
Unaware that he was being admired and worshipped, Gu Zuozuo suddenly felt goosebumps all over his back. Startled, he immediately became vigilant, thinking, "Another treacherous subject is trying to harm me."
The system... its host is beyond saving, destined to live alone.
As one of the heroes who prevented the wolf pack from coming down the mountain, Gu Zuozuo received two extra wolves.
This time, no one rolled their eyes at her secretly anymore. In fact, many people whispered to their wives, asking them to send her some gifts as a token of their gratitude, and they looked at Gu Zuozuo with great admiration.
Seemingly unaccustomed to others being too enthusiastic towards her, Gu Zuozuo, who was usually a loner, became somewhat at a loss.
She was used to other people's malice towards her, used to other people's criticism of her, and used to putting herself on the margins of everyone else, watching other people's joys and sorrows without any reaction.
She never imagined she would be surrounded by people expressing their affection.
Even the five wild boars she received last time didn't bring as much goodwill as this time. Everyone looked at her with an uncomfortable gaze, and no matter where she looked, someone smiled brightly and gratefully at her.
[Host, as long as you don't do anything reckless, this act of saving the village will protect you for life.]
Gu Zuozuo's helplessness vanished in an instant, and she returned to her expressionless state.
system……?
Duan Jianhua rubbed his hands together, looking at Gu Zuozuo with a fervent yet reserved gaze. He hesitated for a long time, wanting to speak but ultimately couldn't resist sticking his head out.
"Gu Zhiqing, what do you think of the profession of barefoot doctor?"
Looking into his expectant eyes, Gu Zuozuo understood what he meant.
"Very good, promising, can cure diseases and save lives, very great."
"Are you interested in becoming a barefoot doctor? Don't worry! You'll get full marks, and a monthly salary of twelve yuan. People in the team will pay you for their medical treatment and medicine. Even if they don't have money, they'll still get marks, so it won't be difficult for you! As long as you're willing, I'll apply to the higher-ups after the snow melts in the spring. You know medicine, so all you have to do is take an exam and get a license!"
Gu Zuozuo felt a weight lifted from her heart; she had achieved her goal.
"Okay, I'll do as the captain says."
Duan Jianhua burst into laughter, clearly in high spirits, and excitedly ran to tell the village chief the good news.
[Tsk tsk tsk, the host is truly a cunning person. He planned everything step by step and still managed to make the person he schemed against grateful to him.]
At first, it really thought that its host was a kind person who was willing to help without regard for his own safety. It wasn't until it saw its host, who was always careful to hide himself, take out the medicine powder he had prepared and give it to them that it realized the host's intention.
Good heavens, the reason she went to help kill the wolves was so that no one would suspect her motives. That's why she took out the medicine powder to help apply the medicine, all for the sake of becoming a barefoot doctor.
Do you really enjoy rescuing people?
She even started scheming against people just to become a barefoot doctor; she doesn't seem like that at all.
