While eating an apple, Wen Jingwan rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "Am I that kind of mother? Do you need to tell me? We owe our children, do you think I don't know that?"

Don't worry, even if it's a boy, he can't replace Qiao'er. I'm not sexist; I love both children.

Jiang Qiao, who was being nagged by her husband and wife, was heading north. She unloaded most of her belongings in the capital. The rest she traded for a lot of ginseng, furs, and mountain products in Changbai Mountain. Of course, she also stole a lot of fish and shrimp along the way and sold them as she went. However, her destination was not where her parents were. Instead, she was heading north straight for the State of Su.

The supplies in her spatial storage were all gone, and she had to find a way to refill them. This time, she experienced the feeling of climbing ice and snow again. In this freezing weather, it was fortunate that she had things in her spatial storage and was well prepared, otherwise she would have frozen to death on the way.

Upon entering the neighboring country, she changed her makeup, at least giving the impression that she was of mixed race.

She drove the truck straight to where she needed to go, first getting meat and grain. As for the rest, she would buy some more to fill the gaps once the truck was full.

While Gu Zhengfeng was at work, he suddenly received a letter from his daughter. After seeing the postmark, Gu Zhengfeng quickly opened the letter, glanced through it, and then wandered around the room several times before turning to leave.

This girl, he always knew that taking early leave was never a good thing. Look at her, she's being disobedient again.

He wanted nothing more than to drag his daughter to his side and give her a good talking-to, since that was a place she could just go anywhere she wanted.

Without a proper identity, how much suffering would that child have to endure in the past?

It's freezing cold right now. Even though he has that space, he's worried that if someone discovers it and suddenly shoots him, he'll lose everything.

He was anxious and uneasy, but he couldn't show it while he was out. The girl had written that she had rented a place and stored a lot of things, asking him to find a way to bring them back. He didn't even think about it; he was sure it was food.

After giving a few instructions to his men, he quickly drove to the address his daughter had mentioned in her letter.

Speaking of which, although he wasn't very familiar with the address, it wasn't too far from here. This girl was almost at her doorstep, yet she wasn't coming back. He'd have to give her a good talking to later; she'd gotten too bold.

However, after finding the location as instructed by his daughter and seeing the heavy iron gate, Gu Zhengfeng couldn't help but admire her. How did she find such a place? Such a gate would be impossible for an ordinary person to pry open, especially the lock. If his daughter hadn't taught him how to open it in her letter, even he wouldn't have been able to open it.

When the door opened, even though he was mentally prepared, Gu Zhengfeng was still startled by all the different things inside.

"My God, where did this girl go to rob someone?"

The room was fully stocked with everything imaginable. He guessed that the girl must have emptied the room to save space. After taking stock of everything, even he was amazed.

Sighing won't solve anything, so he could only resign himself to his fate, squat down, and quickly pack up the food. He mailed what needed to be mailed and gave what needed to be given away, especially the vegetables, which his wife had been craving for a long time. He never expected his daughter to have even prepared those.

I filled a truck, mailed it to the post office first, then picked through the rest and filled another truck. As for the rest, I'll deal with them later; I couldn't possibly fill a whole truck.

First, I delivered some things to the eldest and third brothers' families, and then I went back to my own home.

Wen Jingwan was still anxious. This man said he went out to run errands, but he hadn't returned by nightfall. She was worried that something might have happened to her husband.

Unexpectedly, this person returned with quite a lot of things.

Where did it come from?

Gu Zhengfeng gave a wry smile. "What do you think? It was arranged by a friend. This time, you can eat however you want. By the way, I've already mailed it to your parents, so you don't need to worry about them for now."

Wen Jingwan was even more surprised: "Where did you get so many?"

Gu Zhengfeng thought to himself, "I can't do it, but my daughter can." But he couldn't say it aloud; some things were better left unsaid.

"Oh, no need to worry about that. A friend of mine swapped with them, so I got to enjoy it too. I can eat as much as I want without worry."

Gu Zhengfeng pulled out a box of bird's nest. "Here, I'll stew some bird's nest for you. We've finished all the ones at home, but we have some more now, so you can keep eating."

Wen Jingwan was a little worried at this moment. "Do you think people will be envious of me because I'm so chubby and healthy?"

Gu Zhengfeng looked you up and down, then smacked his lips. "You know what, you really do have that tendency now. But you're naturally fair-skinned, no one can compare. It's normal to gain weight, who doesn't gain weight during pregnancy? You haven't gained much weight yet, your figure is just right, that's great."

Don't worry so much, eat while you can, otherwise you might find yourself unable to eat later, which would be a problem.

Gu Zhengfeng is now very skilled at stewing bird's nest, and since it doesn't release any odor, it's perfect for his wife.

Seeing the braised meat the man brought back, Wen Jingwan's mouth watered again. She asked Gu Zhengfeng to cut some for her, and she ate it while reading. Then she drank a bowl of bird's nest soup before she was satisfied.

Gu Zhengfeng was preparing the pot; his daughter had already cut the mutton, and he felt he should do himself a disservice if he didn't cook some hot pot.

Wen Jingwan later had hot pot with Gu Zhengfeng, and she was so full that she hadn't felt this way in a long time. She wandered around on the ground.

"Don't you think Qiao'er should be here by now? It's been so long, she hasn't arrived yet. Could something have happened to her on the way? Should we ask someone to help look for her?"

"What are you looking for? Do you even know where she is? Forget it, let's just wait for her to come over at home. Don't you know your own daughter? That girl is quite capable."

Gu Zhengfeng was fuming as he said this, angered by his daughter.

Actually, it wasn't just Gu Zhengfeng who was angry; there was another person, Ning Hao. He had returned excitedly, thinking he would see Jiang Qiao, but to his surprise, the girl had long since disappeared. His once fiery heart turned cold after seeing the Qiao family's door locked up. They already didn't have much interaction, and now they couldn't even meet in person. How could they possibly rely on letters in the future? He was worried. Now that the girl was studying, what if some clueless guy tried to steal her away?

"Don't look anymore, their family has all gone to the countryside, and no one has come back for quite some time."

Ning Zhengtao turned around and walked back with his hands behind his back. "I told you you didn't believe me, but now you should, right?"

Ning Zhengtao envied Qiao Jie. He thought, "Look how carefree Qiao Jie's life is! He can go wherever he wants, just walk away whenever he wants. Look at the kind of life his family lives! He even wanted to leave with Qiao Jie. If it weren't for his old wife, he wouldn't want to get involved in all that mess."
