Wang Datou was incredibly grateful that he had offended Jiang Qiao today. Otherwise, where would he have found such a good thing? His sister was saved, and Jiang Qiao was even providing medicine and food for free. He had never encountered such a good thing before, so he felt that Jiang Qiao was sent by God to save him and his family.

Jiang Qiao sighed as he sat on the back of the bicycle. "Big Head Brother, the fact that you can say such things shows that you still have a sense of righteousness in your heart. A person who is good to his family can't be too bad. Just for what you did for your sister today, I'll accept you as my brother."

"I don't have any ideas for now, but I have a suggestion. It's harvest time, you should hurry up and get to work. Just lounging around all day isn't working, it's delaying your chance to get married."

Wang Datou sighed, "What kind of wife am I going to marry? Putting aside my reputation, my family is so poor that we're practically bankrupt. What girl would want to marry me?"

I used to be reckless and gave up, but now I'll listen to you and go to work tomorrow.

Jiang Qiao patted his back. "That's more like it. Come pick me up early tomorrow so it won't interfere with my work."

Jiang Qiao didn't say anything else. She still needed to observe this person carefully. It's not easy to change someone's nature after being around them for so long, especially when those bad friends call on him. He might easily go back to his old ways.

Tonight, the villagers of Gujia Village really enjoyed the feast the team leader had promised, including a real big fish. This allowed the villagers, whose mouths had been dry for a long time, to finally taste meat again.

Moreover, those families who didn't have pots finally got the big iron pots they had been longing for, and you can imagine how lively the dinner party was and how excited everyone was.

Jiang Qiao had heard these things from her family. When she got back, Qiao Jie had already prepared the meal.

Especially after hearing that his granddaughter was treating patients, even the old man was worried for her.

"Tetanus is not so easy to treat, otherwise the mortality rate would be so high. You are really brave."

Gu Zhengfeng explained on behalf of his daughter, "It's okay, we have medicine. Qiao'er has been learning from her mother for so long, so acupuncture is no problem for her. We just don't know if it can cure her."

Qiao Jie glared at Gu Zhengfeng. "I've never seen anyone spoil a child like you. Girl, be careful with this illness. Try some traditional Chinese medicine. I'll get some for you later. I'll brew it for that child tomorrow. Although it's not as fast as Western medicine, it can at least strengthen the body's foundation."

Gu Hanting patted his granddaughter's head and said with emotion, "Girl, you've worked hard. You said you recognized me as your grandfather, but I haven't let you enjoy life. Instead, I've made you do so much behind the scenes. As an old man, I feel really ashamed."

Jiang Qiao patted the old man's hand, "Grandpa, don't think so much. We're family, after all. I'm your granddaughter, this is what I should do."

Since the old man had already figured it out, Jiang Qiao didn't explain anything further; it was enough that her family understood.

Gu Zhengfeng urged everyone to take their seats quickly, while Jiang Xiuqi and his son looked at Jiang Qiao with smiles on their faces.

"Little girl, you're quite capable! I didn't expect you to actually catch some fish for us."

Jiang Qiao snorted, "Uncle, you can't do this. Look at the kind of people you've sent me. They're all children, some even younger than me. You really have some wild ideas. You even told me to go and play. This isn't letting me go and play; it's clearly letting me command them."

Fortunately, I didn't fail in my mission; otherwise, I would have felt guilty towards those ten or so friends.

Jiang Weihan laughed heartily from the side, "Girl, how about that? You've learned your lesson now, haven't you? Your uncle is a cunning old fox, isn't he?"

Jiang Qiao nodded in agreement. "Grandpa Jiang, you're absolutely right. I've never dared to say that before. Uncle, how come I never noticed it before?"

When his father pointed it out, Jiang Xiuqi shamelessly laughed from the side, "Girl, your uncle has no choice. It's not easy for the adults to go, so it's most suitable for you kids to go. You've worked hard today, girl, eat more later."

Jiang Qiao was puzzled. Why didn't Jiang Xiuqi go to take the military academy entrance exam with her father? If he had joined the army, he might have become a high-ranking officer.

Faced with Jiang Qiao's doubts, the adults present all laughed heartily. However, those who knew the truth explained the situation to Jiang Qiao after the laughter subsided.

"Oh, don't even mention it. Back then, he was tricked by your dad. Your grandfather had suggested that both kids join the army, but they were the only two children in the family. Your uncle was studying abroad at the time, and joining the army is risky. Everyone knows bullets don't discriminate. So, your grandfather and I discussed it, and we decided to draw lots to decide who would stay and who would go. That way, the family could still take care of each other. And look, this is what your dad wrote on the lot. Do you know what he wrote?"

Jiang Qiao looked at Gu Zhengfeng and laughed, "Dad, I never knew you did this before."

I know what happened. The note must have said "leave it," and my Uncle Jiang, being anxious, must have opened it first, so he left it.

Jiang Weihan and his son gave Jiang Qiao a thumbs up, "Girl, you're amazing! You could even guess this. Your dad is so clever, he managed to pull this off."

But I can understand why he did this. After all, the two brothers grew up together, and on the battlefield, swords and spears were everywhere. Your father is sitting here because he crawled out of piles of corpses. If you really think about it, your father has had it the hardest.”

Jiang Xiuqi patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "Just for this, we two should have a good drink together."

The two brothers hadn't even eaten their food yet, but they drank a cup of wine first. Jiang Qiao quickly urged everyone to eat.

"It's lively to eat and chat at the same time."

Although he had eaten fish in the cafeteria before, in Jiang Xiuqi's eyes, the meal at the Gu family's house was much tastier than fish. There was no shortage of fish and meat, and most importantly, it was rice! Real rice! How long had it been since he had eaten that?

Although their team also grows this stuff, the amount distributed to the villagers is only a few pounds. They usually can't bear to eat it, and at most, when someone's health can't take it anymore, they will cook some thin porridge for their family.

Watching Jiang Xiuqi eat rice with gusto, Gu Zhengfeng whispered something in his ear, and then Jiang Xiuqi grinned from ear to ear.

Jiang Xiuqi nodded repeatedly as the two brothers talked.

Regarding the question of how Jiang Qiao should be addressed in the future, Jiang Weihan also thought it was feasible. "If it weren't for this issue of class background, why would we need to go through all that trouble? It's fine to just let things slide like this. We just need to keep it to ourselves."

The old man picked up a piece of pork belly, put it in his mouth, and savored the taste as he ate.

"Sigh, I don't know if this big meal of meat will upset my stomach, but I'll eat it anyway."

Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Grandpa Jiang, if you want to eat, you can come and eat. My dad brought the tickets back, and I'll cook for you again tomorrow."

Jiang Weihan waved his hand and said, "Don't, girl. We have to be frugal with our money, or we won't be able to make ends meet. Grandpa has eaten a lot of the meat you've given us. We haven't even eaten the cured meat you gave us last time."

Jiang Xiuqi chimed in from the side, "Dad, how long are you planning to keep that meat? It'll get infested with maggots if you don't eat it soon."

Jiang Weihan tapped his son on the forehead with his chopsticks. "You brat, I knew you were eyeing my meat. You can't touch it. Wait until your younger brother and sister come back before you eat it. Who told you to bring it home and eat it all? You really don't know how to manage money."
