Transmigrated into a poor peasant family, lacking clothes and food, life is hard enough, why must she also be schemed against by her only relative?
So she's not their biological child, wh...
Before leaving, Ning Hao even tried to slip Jiang Qiao some money.
"I don't want it. I was going to give you some. Well, if you don't need it, I won't give it to you. If you need money, just let me know. I'll be going now. You can keep this bag to mail to your friends or something. If you need anything, write to me. If it's urgent, contact Brother Song."
Jiang Qiao and her group arrived at the location at 8 PM. Since there were outsiders present, hunting was not an option. However, Jiang Qiao had already arranged with Zhou Tianyu that she would send some food to the Zhou family when she returned.
Zhou Tianyu's vacation was limited, so Jiang Qiao drove the car back, and of course, he shared half of the things with Jiang Qiao.
"Remember to take some with you to the Tian family. Tell Tian Da that I'm going back now and that he should contact me if he needs anything."
Zhou Tianyu followed the big truck away, while Jiang Qiao drove the small jeep straight to the Tian family's house.
It was already dark, and Jiang Qiao didn't know if the Tian family members were asleep. If she wasn't worried that Zhou Tianyu would call Tian Da, she could have put the things in her space first, driven back to see her grandmother, and then come over.
Because of the uncertainty surrounding Zhou Tianyu, Jiang Qiao didn't intend to take the risk.
He greeted the soldiers on guard at the gate and told the Tian family to come out and greet them.
When Tian Dayi heard that someone was looking for him at the door, he ran out breathlessly. He saw his car from afar, but he didn't expect that the driver was Jiang Qiao.
"Oh my god, it's you! Where's your Brother Zhou?"
Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile. "We're getting something for him. He's in a hurry to send it home for his parents and sister to try. Fresh things don't keep well, so we split up. There'll be some for your family too. Come on, take me inside."
Tian Da spoke to the sentry and then took Jiang Qiao straight home.
Li Wenxiu and Tian Hong were still awake when Jiang Qiao arrived, bringing a lot of seafood with her.
When Tian Hong went outside and saw the girl, he could hardly believe that the beautiful young girl in front of him was the legendary hero.
These faces are so deceptive, especially considering how capable these two are when they go out, even bringing back fresh seafood.
Jiang Qiao hesitated for a moment when she saw Ueda Hiro's scrutinizing gaze, especially since the man in front of her always had a stern face. It wasn't that she was afraid of him, but rather that she didn't know how to address him.
"Hello Uncle, I'm visiting my friend and bringing back some things with Brother Zhou. He asked me to deliver them to you. Perfect timing, I'm here today to give Auntie acupuncture, and then I have some other things to take care of. I'll come back in a couple of days—"
Tian Hong nodded knowingly, a smile appearing on his usually serious face. "Jiang Qiao, right? I've heard of you before, but haven't had a chance to get to know you. Hello, my name is Tian Hong—"
Jiang Qiao saw the other person extend their hand and quickly shook hands with them. This Tian Hong was quite accommodating.
At least in Jiang Qiao's eyes, Tian Hong didn't treat her like a child, and actually respected her quite a bit.
Judging from Tian Hong's attire, Jiang Qiao knew his position to some extent. The fact that he did this meant that Jiang Qiao had a good first impression of Tian Hong.
"My name is Jiang Qiao, Uncle. I'm sorry to come over at this time. I'm mainly worried that the seafood might spoil. Some of it is very fresh."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tian Yu rushed out of the house. Seeing what her older brother was holding, she exclaimed happily, "Great! I was craving this, and someone got it for me. Jiang Qiao, I love you so much!"
Tian Hong's eyes shone with affection for his daughter. "You crazy girl, what are you yelling about? Go and prepare something for Jiang Qiao to eat, and tidy up the guest room—"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "No need for that. I have other things to do later. We'll eat on the way. Um, Auntie, how about I give you the acupuncture now?"
Jiang Qiao was in a hurry, and Li Wenxiu had no objection. Since it could be done, then so be it.
Tian Hong really wanted Jiang Qiao to stay at his house for the night, but the little girl refused. "Uncle, if there's nothing else, I'll definitely stay here. But if there really is something, I've made an appointment with someone, and I haven't seen them for the past two days. I'm afraid they'll worry, so I have to go over there."
"Then let Tian Da take you there."
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "No need, I have arrangements on my end—"
After drinking a glass of water, Jiang Qiao quickly went inside with Li Wenxiu to get acupuncture, while Tian Yu and the family's housekeeper were busy in the kitchen.
"My goodness, how can there be so many—"
Tian Hong knew that Jiang Qiao had brought a lot of things this time, but he didn't expect there to be so much fresh fish, shrimp and crab.
"Tian Da, go to the kitchen and get a few portions for those families. This is good stuff; you can't usually get such fresh food."
Tian Hong went to the living room with his hands behind his back to wait, but in his heart he was also thinking about Jiang Qiao.
The girl didn't seem afraid of him, the commander, and at first glance, she seemed very wary.
Indeed, how can a child like this achieve merit if he doesn't have some vigilance?
In his opinion, Jiang Qiao's achievement was truly genuine; without some ability, who would dare to act alone like that?
He knew a little about the Zhou family's child. If he didn't know Jiang Qiao, he definitely wouldn't have let the girl drive over so confidently.
Inside the house, Jiang Qiao carefully instructed, "Auntie, please eat only a little of these shrimp and crabs. Just have a taste. If you're craving them, I'll bring you meat next time."
Li Wenxiu felt relaxed all over after the acupuncture, and she became especially caring towards the young girl Jiang Qiao.
"Jiang Qiao, is it really okay for you to go back like this? Why don't you let the brother and sister see you off?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "It's alright. If I dared to come, I dared to go back. Don't worry. I just had something urgent to do. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been in such a hurry to leave at night."
Staying at someone else's house was inconvenient for Jiang Qiao, and she wasn't familiar with the family. If it weren't for this medical treatment, she wouldn't have had any interaction with the Tian family at all. She needed to investigate this family thoroughly before making a final judgment on whether they were good or bad.
Tian Hong and his wife shared the same idea: they still wanted Tian Da to take her home, but Jiang Qiao refused again.
"It's alright, just see me to the gate, I'll come back in a couple of days."
After Jiang Qiao finished giving her instructions, the man quickly left, leaving the couple sitting in the living room, reminiscing for quite a while.
"Old Tian, why don't you let this girl take a look at you next time? Your health is also a problem."
Tian Hong sighed, "It's nothing serious for me. I just feel unwell when it's cloudy or rainy. Let's treat your illness first, and I'll talk to Jiang Qiao about it later. It seems that this young lady is really capable. I don't know how Wen Jingwan and her husband raised their child. Even I'm envious."
Tian Yu crawled over carrying the cooked crabs and shrimp. "Oh, Grandpa, what's wrong? Are you envious of other people's daughters? But envy is useless. They're not ours. I wish Jiang Qiao were my sister."
