Seeing Qiao Shan's smug look, Qiao Weiguo said unhappily, "Where have you been all day? Haven't you seen that there are so many things to do at home? You don't do your work all day long!"

Qiao Shan was in a good mood and did not refute. He just smiled and responded: "Come on, Dad. I'll make up the rest of the stories today."

Qiao Hu on the other side suddenly became suspicious and looked at the boss suspiciously: "Brother, what good thing happened to you?"

Qiao Shan said nonchalantly, "No, I just went out for a walk. I thought the weather was very good today and the crops in the fields were growing well. I was happy thinking that there would be a good harvest next year."

Qiao Hu seemed to be thinking about something. "Since the fourth brother went in, I rarely see you in such a good mood, big brother."

As soon as Qiao Hu finished speaking, Qiao Weiguo's face turned serious and he threw the thing in his hand to the ground!

"bump!"

The loud noise instantly silenced the brothers Qiao Shan and Qiao Hu in the yard.

After smashing the things, Qiao Weiguo stood up with a sullen face and went into the house.

After seeing his father walk in, Qiao Shan lowered his voice and said to his third brother, "Third brother, what can I say about you? Don't you know that Dad hates it most when people talk about the fourth brother?"

Qiao Hu was also a little annoyed, "I just spoke too quickly and didn't pay attention."

"It's all because of those gossipy women in the village. They gossip all day long. Dad finally wanted to go out and relax a few days ago. When he went out, he ran into a group of women who were laughing at our Qiao family..."

Qiao Shan's expression gradually turned ugly, because he remembered what those women said that day.

The atmosphere between the brothers suddenly became depressing.

The two of them were weaving the basket in silence, with a layer of gloom on their faces.

After a while, Qiao Hu couldn't help but say, "Boss, how do you think our family lives like this?"

Qiao Shan said without hesitation: "I am Qiao Qingqing."

Qiao Hu was stunned.

Then he seemed to think of something and sighed.

"Indeed, if we had known from the beginning that she was our biological sister, we would have chosen her instead of Lanlan, and none of the things that happened later would have happened."

It was the Ning family who first approached the Qiao family about forming an alliance, but because the Qiao family had trouble with their own daughter, the Ning family later stopped wanting to form an alliance.

But as soon as Lanlan showed up, the Ning family changed their minds.

At that time, their whole family was very grateful to Lanlan, and even Dad made the decision to completely give up Qingqing for this matter.

Who could have imagined that in the end, they would get married to each other, but they turned out to be a family full of traitors!

I heard that now the entire Ning family has been sentenced, and all of them are sentenced to death!

The country has zero tolerance for betraying the motherland, so any spy who is caught will basically be sentenced.

However, the reason why all the members of the Ning family were sentenced to death was enough to say that the Ning family had stolen secrets over the years and caused considerable losses to the country.

Only Ning Rong's wife seemed to have not been caught yet.

This woman was very smart. She had found an excuse to go to another province long before the Ning family incident. Now no one knew where she was hiding her identity.

As for Lanlan, she was also placed under strict surveillance.

Since Lanlan had only been Ning Rong's mistress for a short time and was unaware of the Ning family's crimes, she would not be sentenced to death, but she would definitely go to jail.

Even if Lanlan could escape this time, their family would never accept her again!

After all, the fact that Lanlan was Ning Rong's mistress made people suspect that she knew about Ning Suxiang's pregnancy before marriage!

Plus, Lanlan did something to their parents...

When Qiao Hu thought of this, his heart ached again.

Shi Lanlan, whom their whole family regarded as their baby, turned out to be such a person. She was also a vicious woman who was bent on harming the Qiao family!

Is this the real-life version of The Farmer and the Snake?

The more he thought about it, the more ashamed Qiao Hu felt. What kind of vision did this family have?

Just when Qiao Hu was feeling guilty about his younger sister Qiao Qingqing, Qiao Shan said something shocking.

"Third brother, you are wrong. You should think like this: if Qiao Qingqing hadn't existed in the first place, our family would be living in harmony and happiness now."

The expression on Qiao Shan's face when he said this was very righteous.

Qiao Hu was stunned again.

Because he didn't think so, things turned out to be the case, and his boss still thought so.

"But our little sister has been replaced. This mistake has existed for twenty years."

"Then let it continue to be wrong. I really don't know who wants to expose this matter? What good will it do him if it is exposed?"

Qiao Shan suddenly paused here.

He looked at the third brother in disbelief: "Third brother, do you think it is possible that Qiao Qingqing knew that she was from our family a long time ago, and planned all this in order to get rid of the Shi family?"

Qiao Hu was a little confused.

"How and what can she design?"

"Why not? She knows that our whole family dotes on Lanlan, so she wants to change her identity so that she can be loved by everyone. Later, she will let Lanlan be abused by the Shi family couple."

The more Qiao Shan talked, the more he thought it was possible. "Yes, that must be the case! She was beaten on purpose in the hospital, just to win the sympathy of her parents. After all, when her parents heard that Lanlan was sent to the hospital, they ignored everything and rushed to the hospital. Qiao Qingqing must have guessed that her parents despised Lanlan so much, so she deliberately provoked Shi Jingye and the others and got beaten when her parents were there."

Qiao Shan turned the bamboo basket in his hand around and continued weaving, with a nonchalant look and a hint of disdain.

"But she probably didn't think that her parents weren't the unreasonable kind of people. Besides, in our hearts, she wasn't wanted by Lanlan at the time. As a result, she failed to achieve the expected results, so she became angry and ashamed, and she has hated our family ever since."

After hearing his inference, Qiao Hu couldn't help asking, "Boss, what's the point of you saying this now? Even if it's true as you said, our little sister already knew that she was the daughter of the Qiao family, so it's not wrong for her to want to claim her as her own. If it were you who met Jingye or Wang Meifang as your adoptive father, wouldn't you want to find your own biological father?"

Qiao Shan frowned immediately and looked at him disapprovingly: "Third brother, you are wrong. I said all this to tell you that even if Qiao Qingqing is really our biological sister, she is also a scheming person! Such a person, no matter how we treat her, she will retaliate. If we recognize her, we may be even more unlucky than we are now."

Qiao Hu opened his mouth. He knew that there was something wrong with what the boss said, but he suddenly didn't know how to respond.

So Qiao Hu shook her head and sighed, then lowered her head to concentrate on the knitting work in her hands.

However, Qiao Shan fell into his own imagination, and gradually imagined the three words "Qiao Qingqing" to be synonymous with "evil woman".

After all, Lily is his woman now, and he and Lily are on the same side!

Before, Lily always complained about how Qiao Qingqing was targeting her. As Lily's lover, if he wanted to protect Lily in the future, he would inevitably go against Qiao Qingqing.

Although Qiao Shan was unwilling to admit it, deep down in his heart, he knew that their Qiao family was inferior to Qiao Qingqing.

This means that if he wants to suppress Qiao Qingqing, he must abandon this kind of thinking, confuse right and wrong in his heart, imagine Qiao Qingqing as a villain, and put all the blame on Qiao Qingqing.

Only in this way, when he needs to go against Qiao Qingqing for Lily, or for his own interests, he can have no psychological burden and exert all his "strength".

Anyway, Qiao Qingqing's attitude towards the Qiao family is so strange.

Even if they knew that pleasing Qiao Qingqing would bring benefits, so what?

Qiao Qingqing didn't want them to take advantage of her at all!

If that's the case, it's better to overturn the table from the beginning!

Don't have any expectations of Qiao Qingqing, so it doesn't matter what her attitude is.

What's more, only by stepping on Qiao Qingqing can everyone change their impression of the Qiao family and Qiao Shanbo!

In addition, you can also gain Lily's favor.

This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, and it is also a way that Qiao Shan, a smart man, thought of.

But he didn't understand why Lao San didn't agree with him?

Could it be that the third brother has a masochistic tendency and likes to go to Qiao Qingqing and try to please her instead?

——At this moment, Qiao Shan was so confused that he couldn't think properly.

Unfortunately, Qiao Shan himself is not aware of this.

The next day, Qiao Shan showed up early in the morning at the Red Sun Battalion's headquarters.

Although Qiao Weiguo is no longer the team leader, Qiao Shan grew up here after all, and these uncles, aunts, grandparents in the village are all his elders.

The current captain of the team is also an uncle of Qiao Shan.

As for the accountant, he is the second son of this uncle and has been friends with Qiao Shan since childhood.

Qiao Shan arrived at the brigade headquarters an hour earlier than He Lili, on the pretext of visiting his childhood friend.

He joked around with his childhood friend in the brigade headquarters just to make his stay seem more comfortable so that he could speak for Lily when she died.

Finally, just when Qiao Shan was about to be driven out by the impatient captain, He Lili's voice was heard outside.

"Is the captain here? I have something to talk to you about."

…

Qiao Shan took the bait and was hooked by He Lili. In the Hongsheng Brigade, which was separated from the Hongri Brigade by a river, Qiao Qingqing received bad news.

Island, troops.

Head of delegation office.

At this time, in addition to the leader, the regiment commander, there were also Fu Ying, Zheng Ying, and Qiao Qingqing, whose face turned slightly pale.

When the dizziness and shock of the bad news slowly dissipated in her head, Qiao Qingqing spoke with difficulty.

"Captain, what does it mean to lose contact?"

The big boss's expression was also very serious.

Paying attention to her expression, he sighed, "Comrade Qiao Qingqing, you have to be strong. Originally, I didn't plan to tell you this news, but Lao Fu is right. You are Lu Heng's lover, and you have an obligation to know his news."

Qiao Qingqing didn't listen to the answer she wanted. Her eyes were anxious and her tone was slightly panicked: "Captain, what does it mean to lose contact with you? It should just mean that you can't contact Lu Heng temporarily, right? With the communication we have now, it's normal not to be able to contact people. It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

But if it really doesn't matter, then why do they all have such gloomy expressions?

Even when the team leader mentioned this news just now, Qiao Qingqing even heard...

A feeling of deep sorrow!
