Chapter 7: Bited by a Snake

It's good that there are many people here, everyone is working and doesn't feel bored.

At this moment, the loudspeaker in the production brigade broadcasted a slogan, "Unity and diligence, strive for progress, not afraid of hardship, not afraid of fatigue!"

"Hardship first, enjoyment later!"

The tone of the announcer on the broadcast was very inspiring, and the people working hastened their pace after hearing it.

Although the people in this era live a hard life, they are very simple and have a strong sense of happiness and satisfaction. Being able to work and have food to eat is the greatest wish.

On the contrary, in the 21st century, as conditions improved, people's desires became endless, making it difficult to find happiness.

Zhao Xiulan also quickened her pace of work, quickly cutting the pig grass she found and then carrying it in a basket to find the next spot.

"Come quick, Wu Jinhua's son has been bitten by a snake!"

A panicked voice came from not far away at the foot of the mountain. Upon hearing this, the people working hurried over.

The people in the brigade are simple and kind-hearted. When one family encounters trouble, others will lend a hand. Upon hearing that someone had been bitten by a snake, they naturally rushed over to see what had happened.

According to the residual memories of the original host, Wu Jinhua had three daughters before giving birth to a son, so she cherished him very much. Now that her son had been bitten by a snake, she must be very worried.

Zhao Xiulan followed the footsteps of the others in the brigade and went to see if she could lend a hand and help.

When everyone arrived, Wu Jinhua's son, Goudan, had already collapsed on the ground, unconscious, with black lips, indicating that the venom had entered his bloodstream.

Many people were anxious and discussing, "What should we do? How could this healthy child be bitten by a poisonous snake?"

"It looks like the poisoning is severe. Ah, the commune's health center will take at least half an hour to get here. It's too late to send him there!"

"Yeah... I heard that severe poisoning needs to be treated quickly. If it's delayed, there will be no chance. Half an hour... Goudan might not make it in time!"

Wu Jinhua was already frightened and distraught. When she heard someone say this, she became even more scared and cried out, "Who can save my Goudan? He's my only precious son. He can't have an accident! If someone can save Goudan, I will repay them for the rest of my life! Please, save my Goudan..."

The people in the brigade felt sorry for Wu Jinhua but also felt helpless.

No one was a doctor, and no one knew what to do in this situation.

"Or should we hurry and take him to the health center and give it a try? It's better than just waiting here," someone suggested.

Others agreed, feeling that this was the only option at the moment.

Just as everyone was preparing to pick up Goudan and take him to the commune's health center, Zhao Xiulan, with a serious expression, stepped forward and said to the crowd, "It might be too late to send him there. We need to act quickly now, or there will be a risk to his life."

After Zhao Xiulan spoke, everyone's gaze fell on her.

Ignoring the looks of the others, Zhao Xiulan walked up to Wu Jinhua and said, "Auntie, if you trust me, you can let me try!"

Wu Jinhua was at her wits' end, but decided to let Zhao Xiulan try. It was better than doing nothing and letting Goudan's situation worsen.

Moreover, from Zhao Xiulan's tone, it seemed like she really had a solution.

"Alright, Xiulan, if you have a way, then go ahead and try. If you can save Goudan, I will remember this favor for the rest of my life and repay you in the future!"
