Forced to go to the countryside, the arrogant young lady got married and became a military wife

Chapter 191: Third Class Personal Merit

While Zhang Lanxiang continued with her work, she curiously asked Ah Miao, "Ah Miao, you have such good medical skills, why don't you find a job in the hospital?"

"Even if she becomes a nurse, it would be a shame to stay at home and only treat our family's minor illnesses occasionally."

A Miao paused in her watering motion. She couldn't say that she was a robot and could only cure their family, right?

"Aunt, my medical skills are limited to treating minor illnesses, but I can't take you to the hospital."

"Also, I don't really like the busy and stressful environment of a hospital. I prefer to be at home, taking care of everyone's health, cooking and cleaning the house every day, and taking care of the children in the future. I feel at ease."

Zhang Lanxiang stopped what she was doing, walked over to Ah Miao, patted her shoulder gently and said, "Ah Miao, please don't belittle yourself like that. In my eyes, your medical skills are no worse than those doctors in the hospital. But since you like being at home, I won't say anything more. As long as you feel comfortable at home, that's all that matters."

Ah Miao smiled and nodded: "Auntie, don't worry, I'm very happy here, and I feel very satisfied to be able to contribute to the family."

At this time, a breeze blew, and the leaves in the vegetable field rustled.

Seeing the wind blowing, Zhang Lanxiang thought to herself that she must not let Shi Qingqian catch a cold.

She quickly put down the tools in her hands and said to Ah Miao, "Ah Miao, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go get a blanket from inside to cover Qing Qian."

As she spoke, Zhang Lanxiang walked quickly into the house.

She rummaged through the cupboard for a while and found a soft blanket.

Back in the yard, Zhang Lanxiang tiptoed to Shi Qingqian's side, afraid of waking her up.

She bent down slightly and gently covered her shallow belly button with a corner of the blanket.

After covering the blanket, Zhang Lanxiang carefully tidied it up again to ensure that Shi Qingqian was well protected.

……

It was almost noon, and Zhang Lanxiang and A Miao went to the kitchen to start cooking.

In the kitchen, the clatter of pots and pans and the thumping of vegetables were intertwined.

At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums and the noisy voices of people came from outside the yard.

While stirring the food in the pot, Zhang Lanxiang said curiously, "Ah Miao, listen, why is it so lively outside? Is there a wedding? I haven't heard of it."

Zhang Lanxiang has not been in the compound for long, but she has already successfully become friends with a group of aunts.

There was no way she didn't know about this exciting thing.

Ah Miao also stopped washing the vegetables, listened attentively for a while, and said, "Auntie, I don't know either."

As the sound of gongs and drums got closer, it became louder.

Finally, it stopped in front of their house.

A meticulous middle-aged man outside the door cleared his throat and asked loudly, "Is Comrade Shi Qingqian home?"

Zhang Lanxiang and A Miao looked at each other, both with confusion on their faces.

Zhang Lanxiang wiped her hands on her apron and said, "Ah Miao, I'll go out and take a look. You cook."

She walked out of the kitchen and came to the gate of the yard. She opened the door, looked at the group of people outside, and asked, "My Qingqian is here. May I ask who you are?"

Zhang Lanxiang saw Commander Liang and Political Commissar Wen standing beside her. She knew these two people, who were her son's leaders.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, and an expression of surprise and slight nervousness appeared on her face.

Zhang Lanxiang quickly straightened her back, put on a warm smile on her face, opened the gate and invited them in.

"Hey, Commander Liang, Political Commissar Wen, why are you here?"

Commander Liang smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, we are here to present a commendation to Comrade Shi Qingqian."

Political Commissar Wen also stepped forward and said, "Yes, Comrade Shi Qingqian has made a great contribution this time, and we have come specially to express our congratulations."

Shi Qingqian, who was sitting in the rocking chair, had already woken up. When she saw someone coming to her house, although her mind was still a little confused, she subconsciously stood up, straightened her clothes, and then walked forward.

Shi Qingqian's face had a languid look, as if she had just woken up, and she was still a little dazed, but she quickly adjusted herself and said with a smile, "Commander Liang, Political Commissar Wen, please come in."

She glanced at everyone, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a polite smile.

Political Commissar Wen introduced the people around him to Shi Qingqian and said with a smile, "Comrade Shi Qingqian, come here, let me introduce you."

"This is Comrade Jiang Anguo, Governor of Southern Province."

Shi Qingqian was slightly startled, then a look of respect emerged on her face, and she said, "Hello, Comrade Governor."

Jiang Anguo looked at Shi Qingqian with admiration and said, "Comrade Shi Qingqian, your heroic behavior this time is admirable. You are worthy of being our glorious military wife."

Shi Qingqian said modestly, "You are too kind, Governor. This is what I should do."

Political Commissar Wen then introduced them: "This is Comrade Zhang Zude, Vice Governor of the Province, and this is Comrade Quan Xing, Director of the Public Security Department."

Shi Qingqian hurriedly said, "Hello, Vice Governor Zhang, Director Quan."

Zhang Zude smiled and responded: "Comrade Shi Qingqian, your performance this time has set an example for the masses and is worthy of praise!"

Quanxing also nodded and said, "Yes, Comrade Shi, your bravery and resourcefulness have greatly helped our police work."

Governor Jiang took the prepared certificate, medal and bonus from his secretary.

The certificate and medal were placed in an exquisite box tied with a red ribbon, which looked solemn and festive.

Governor Jiang held the box in both hands, his expression serious and solemn as he spoke: "Comrade Shi Qingqian, in this operation against human traffickers, you have demonstrated extraordinary courage and wisdom. You disregarded your own safety, ventured into dangerous situations, and successfully rescued numerous abducted children. You have made a tremendous contribution to maintaining social stability and the integrity of families."

"In recognition of your outstanding contributions to the country and its people, after careful consideration and decision by superiors, you are hereby awarded a Second Class Merit. In addition to the certificate and medal, you will also receive a bonus of 5000 yuan. This is an honor that belongs to you."

Shi Qingqian accepted this heavy honor with her hands trembling slightly.

She carefully opened the box and saw the certificate with "Second Class Merit" and the shining medal. She was so excited that she couldn't express it in words.

Those who were clinging to the wall to watch the excitement heard that Shi Qingqian had actually won the second-class merit and even received a 5000 yuan bonus. That was 5000 yuan, many of them had never seen so much money in their entire lives.
