Chapter 11: Kindness Points
Editor: Exodus Tales
"Su Mian, where did you learn first aid treatment techniques?" Doctor Ma asked what everybody was puzzled about.
Su Mian sweetly smiled. She naturally could not say she had been a military doctor at the Interstellar Army for a few years in her previous life. She had already planned her words, "I have been looking at a medical book these few days. It was a book that my father borrowed from the library. There just happened to the topic of first aid on arterial bleeding."
"What a coincidence!" Doctor Ma nodded his head, but even if a person only looked at a medical book, only a true genius would be able to perform treatment this well.
After Liu Da had been sent away, Doctor Ma gave several other people tetanus shots and bandaged their wounds. He informed them that their wounds cannot get wet and to drink medicine on time.
Su Mian's family went back home to eat dinner.
Su Mian followed at the back when small golden words suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
You have saved a heavily injured villager and have been rewarded with 5 kindness points. You have 5 kindness points in total.
5 kindness points!
If her family was not there, Su Mian would have jumped with excitement. She had finally obtained kindness points. It appeared that helping the dying and healing the injured would allow her to obtain kindness points. She decided she would do more in the future.
At the table, Su Jin Long was especially obedient that night. He held on to his bowl and ate with all his effort. He was thinking about what his mom had been saying these few days, that her sister had become a lot more thoughtful. Today, he had also seen that his sister was different.
"Little Long, what are you thinking about? Here, eat more." Su Mian used her chopsticks to put more of a side dish on his bowl.
Su Jin Long was unusually quiet that night. It was the first time he had ignored the lack of meat in the dishes.
"Dad, Mom, I wish to discuss something with you." Su Mian placed her chopsticks down and earnestly spoke.
"What's the matter?" Seeing how serious his daughter looked, Su Jiang Hai was stunned. He Qin had already told him yesterday that Little Mian was different from before. Now that she had her own plans, it truly looked that way now.
Everyone in the village knew he loved his daughter. Even if his daughter wanted the stars, he would agree to it, but Su Mian had never sat down to discuss anything with him before.
"Dad, I don't want to drop out of school anymore. I want to continue studying in senior middle school and take the college entrance exams. I plan to enter the Imperial Medical School and become a military doctor for the Interstellar Army." This was the result of Su Mian's careful consideration these few days. She wanted to quickly see Wei Zhen Hui and marry him as soon as possible, but she did not want everything to be like her past life.
Because she lacked the foundational knowledge of medical science, she had been entrapped by others and was forced to leave after being falsely accused.
She must marry Wei Zhen Hui. In this lifetime, she will propose the marriage first and not let Su Hong beat her.
Su Jiang Hai looked at He Qin. At this time, He Qin had a warm smile. He knew this meant she would listen to his opinion.
Si Mian's words were reasonable. He also hoped his own daughter would be able to pass the college entrance exams, especially since if he told others, he would gain face. In their village, there had only been one college graduate!
However, he recalled that his daughter's grades were only average. Let alone passing the entrance exams, entering a professional training college would already be the Su Family's good fortune!
Seeing her father's worry, Su Mian pulled on her father's arm and acted like a baby, "Dad, I was not thoughtful in the past and did not properly study. Now that there are only six months left before the exams, I will work hard."
Su Jiang Hai faced his daughter's earnest face and nodded, "Don't worry, Dad is willing to sacrifice everything so he can provide for you."
"Dad, you don't need to sacrifice everything. I'll think about how to get money." Since the tower space could not help her earn money, Su Mian had to find an alternative.
Su Jin Long curled his lips, "Tut! What plan can you think of? In the end, you would still ask mom and dad for the money." He understood his sister's morality, she was a tyrant at home but timid as a rabbit outside.
"Little Long, you are already 15 years old and are about to graduate junior middle school. You must also think about the future. Will you continue studying, will you do farm work with mother and father your entire life, or will you go learn some trade?" Su Mian thought about how Su Jin Long was framed by Su Jin Biao, making him carry the hateful criminal charge of a murderer.
This time, by all possible means, she would stop this tragedy from happening.
Chapter 12: Positive Evaluation From A Patient's Family Member
Editor: Exodus Tales
"Wow, how did this suddenly become about me? Su Mian, please spare me. You know that I had tried my best just to pass the junior middle school exams. Do you want me to die from studying?" Su Jin Long's face became unhappy. He had already made plans for his life.
He planned to join his older male cousin hunting wild chickens and catching rabbits, living a free life.
He Qin also nodded her head, "Little Long, your sister is right. You are not a child anymore, you need to think about the future."
"Let's talk about this in the future. I still haven't encountered anything that has motivated me yet!" Su Jin Long hesitated.
Su Jiang Hai was amused at his small adult-ish appearance, "I think that after three more years, you should go join the Interstellar Army. That would be a good way forward."
Hearing talk about becoming a soldier, Su Jin Long jumped up from his seat, "Dad, you are my father. You know that Qi Xiao Guo from the western end of the village joining the army. When he returned for a short time, he became a loafer and leads a life of dissipation. He is proficient in eating, drinking, and gambling. I don't want to become like him."
"That is only a minority. Just look at Wei Zhen Hui. They both joined the army together, but now, he's already a team leader." Su Jiang Hai had heard this from the city he visited earlier.
Su Jin Long didn't say anything as he rolled his eyes. Who knew what he was thinking about.
"Little Long, let me tell you. Be more well behaved this vacation and don't go play around with Su Jin Biao and the others. Our family situation is not good, and both of us need to help dad earn money." Su Mian gave Su Jin Long a forewarning, wishing him to stay away from Su Jin Biao.
Su Jin Long flattened his mouth and did not say anything. If it was Su Mian of the past, he would be the first one to retort.
Who knows why, but he felt that Su Mian was different from before.
He Qin and Su Jiang Hai did not take Su Mian's words to heart. They believed any method their children were planning to make money was only a joke.
In this era, the rural areas of the Erya Planet did not even have television channels at night. The night descended early in winter thus they all went to sleep after eating.
Su Mian's parents were in the eastern bedroom while the western bedroom was partitioned into two small rooms. Su Mian's was the inner room while Su Jin Long's was the outer room.
After turning off the light, Su Mian impatiently entered the tower space.
She had been gone from the space for three hours outside, but inside the space, nine hours had already passed. Su Mian quickly ran to the medicinal field. She was disappointed that not even a single sprout had grown.
However, the medicinal field dried up very fast. She went to get another bucket of water and poured it on the field.
The tower space once again gave her notice.
Physical points increase by 1. Total physical points 18.
Su Mian exited the tower space in a good mood and went to sleep.
The second day, Su Mian was still asleep when she heard people speaking outside.
"Aunt He, please keep it. It is leftovers from our chickens. It's not worth much money. Even the hospital doctors were praising Su Mian's first aid treatment. If not for her, my brother would have lost his life. Aunt, my brother's life was saved by Su Mian. What's it worth compared to a few eggs?"
Liu Er placed a basket of eggs on top of the kitchen counter, then turned around and ran while shouting, "Aunt, my mom says that if you send them back, then she would just send it back to you. And she will be skillful in doing it."
"This is too kind of you." He Qin picked up the basket and wanted to run after him, but Su Jiang Hai walked out from the east room, "Just keep it. This is part of the Liu Family's kind intentions. In the future, we can just compensate for them in another way. Just use them to steam some bahulu for the kids."
Su Mian was currently listening to the movements outside when golden words suddenly flashed in front of her.
You have received a positive evaluation from a patient's family member. Kindness points increase by 1. You have 6 kindness points in total.
Su Mian immediately became excited. This made her even happier than receiving the basket of eggs. It appears that receiving a positive evaluation from others would also award her with kindness points.
In the morning, He Qin steamed a bowl of bahalu and placed it in front of the children. Then she also placed yesterday night's leftovers of Chinese cabbage and stewed potatoes in front of Su Jiang Hai and herself.
Su Mian's eyes ached a bit. He Qin and her father would always give her and her little brother the best parts. Why didn't she cherish such great parents in her previous life?
Su Mian scooped a
He Qin looked at the bahalu in her bowl, and her eyes reddened. When had Su Mian ever passed food to her? "You and your brother should eat it. You are both currently growing. Mom is already very old, so there's no need."
