Seeing Jiang Qiao drive over, these people certainly wouldn't think that this girl was trying to fool them.

However, Jiang Qiao is not showing her true face right now. She still has to pretend, otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble in the future. Who knows if she will run into these people again?

If she's kind-hearted, that's fine, but what if she changes her mind one day? It wouldn't be good to accuse her of speculation and profiteering. She just wanted to take advantage of a bargain and didn't want to get herself into trouble.

However, Jiang Qiao was very generous. The old goods were worthless, but what Jiang Qiao gave them made these people very happy. They exclaimed that they had met a good person today. They brought out their old goods to sell because they were forced to do so in order to make a living. Jiang Qiao gave them food directly. It was like meeting a living bodhisattva.

Of course, Jiang Qiao also helped a few others as well, which was convenient for her.

After Jiang Qiao finished settling things in the county town, she returned quite late. Fortunately, she drove back, so Gu Zhengfeng wasn't too worried despite the lateness.

The only problem is that they can't eat Jiang Qiao's cooking today, but it doesn't matter much. The food Jiang Qiao brought is in the cafeteria, and the chefs there are quite skilled; good food tastes good no matter how it's cooked.

As soon as she entered, Jiang Qiao tossed two bags to Song Junqiang, saying, "These are for your family. Take them back with you when you send them to your father later."

"Thanks, but should I take it back now?"

Jiang Qiao nodded. "Go ahead, go ahead. I'll keep watch all night, no problem."

Wen Jingwan had already left, leaving only the father and son in the ward. Since his daughter was leaving, Gu Zhengfeng wanted to tell her everything he could think of, fearing that she might act impulsively and give herself away, with potentially disastrous consequences.

"Dad, don't worry, I've told you my friend got it for me. As for who it is, I won't say, and nobody will know."

By the way, what are your thoughts on my maternal grandfather's side?

Gu Zhengfeng glanced at the door, then shook his head at Jiang Qiao, "Don't worry about this. Your grandfather has his own arrangements. Just focus on your studies and take good care of your grandparents at home. You don't need to worry about us here. When you leave, leave some things for your family, just enough for your mother to get some nutrition."

Jiang Qiao leaned closer to Gu Zhengfeng and whispered, "Dad, should I get some ready-made food to put in your cellar? I have enough grain and meat here, and I also have sausages and stuff, but I was afraid you wouldn't be able to tell me where they came from, so I didn't dare take them out."

Gu Zhengfeng gave a wry smile. "You've really given me a tough problem. Sausages are quite rare, but they're not necessarily hard to find. Just leave me some cured sausages, bacon, and dried goods. Keep some grains, and you can take the rest with you."

Remember, don't always go to the black market to trade. If you walk the dark too often, you're bound to run into something bad.

"Dad, you can keep your salaries for yourselves. I have money on hand for now, really, enough to cover my expenses."

Also, will you be promoted again this time?

Gu Zhengfeng smiled and shook his head. "Not so fast, it hasn't been that long. But don't worry, Dad is working hard."

Jiang Qiao hesitated for a moment, then took out a few prescriptions from her space. "Dad, I've researched a few medicines, but these few won't be very useful for you. However, I think these two are suitable for you. One is for sprains and bruises, and the other is for treating infertility. But some illnesses are different, and you don't necessarily have to follow the prescription exactly. Mine should be suitable for the common kind."

Gu Zhengfeng took it and looked at it, then handed the liniment to his daughter, saying, "Keep this. Your mother can't touch these blood-activating things for the time being."

As for infertility, I'll keep that for now. If it can help those childless veterans, that would be a good deed.

"Dad, I'm leaving the day after tomorrow. Is there anything else I need to do? Just let me know and I'll take care of it right away."

Gu Zhengfeng shook his head. "You don't need to book the tickets. I'll have your third uncle handle it. I reckon you two will most likely be traveling in the same car."

Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "That's great. I'll send some things to my uncle's house tomorrow."

After taking care of Gu Zhengfeng until he fell asleep, Jiang Qiao read a book by the lamplight, when Zhang Boda and Song Shuhai walked in unexpectedly.

Seeing Jiang Qiao there, the two were quite happy and invited her to come out and sit for a while.

The three of them sat in the hallway and started chatting.

Jiang Qiao stared at Zhang Boda for a while, then suddenly asked, "Hey Zhang, your brother is pretty good at hiding things."

Zhang Boda was taken aback by Jiang Qiao's question, but Song Shuhai was the first to understand what Jiang Qiao meant.

"I didn't say that. Jiang Qiao has been busy these past two days, and we haven't had time to talk about you at all."

Zhang Boda scratched the back of his head and laughed, "You're pretty amazing too. Apart from Song Shuhai and the dean, no one else really knows about my relationship with my dad. That's impressive, you managed to figure that out?"

Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Like father, like son. You look so much like your dad, so naturally I would think of it that way."

Zhang Boda smiled and shook his head, "Only you would have this idea; others really don't know about this."

Jiang Qiao rolled her eyes at him. "Because your father mentioned the details of our surgery that day. You think only the three of us knew about it? Would anyone else go and tell your father about it?"

Zhang Boda finally understood why Jiang Qiao knew about their relationship: his father had betrayed him.

Jiang Qiao turned to Song Shuhai and asked, "Brother Song, do you know Song Shutian?"

This time, Song Shuhai was surprised. Then, he realized something and pointed at Jiang Qiao excitedly.

"You, you're the one who found my older sister?"

Jiang Qiao nodded. "So what's your relationship?"

Song Shuhai explained with a smile, "We are cousins, so we're closer than Zhang Boda."

Zhang Boda patted Song Shuhai on the shoulder and said, "Hey brother, that's not very nice of us. The three of us are in the same trench. What's this about being close or not? We're like three siblings."

Jiang Qiao smiled and nodded, then said, "Brothers, I have to go back the day after tomorrow. We can only meet again during my summer vacation. My mom will probably give birth around that time, so please keep an eye out and don't make any mistakes."

Zhang Boda waved his hand with a laugh, "Don't worry, this matter can't be wrong. You're underestimating our hospital. I'll keep an eye on things for you."

"Oh, right, I have a gift for you. Wait here, I'll go inside and get it."

Jiang Qiao gave them wool scarves, two for each person, one men's and one women's. "You can wear these yourself, and you can give these to your family or girlfriends. Here you are, do with them yourselves."

Zhang Boda and Song Shuhai were not people who had never seen good things before, but the scarves that Jiang Qiao gave them were really not ordinary goods. In fact, they were not sold in stores at all, and the quality was excellent.

The two of them didn't stand on ceremony. "Thanks, please write to us when you have time."
