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...
Jiang Qiao had accompanied her father to work before, but this time it was different. She was there, but no one could see her. Of course, the way she greeted him was different from before.
"Hey, Zhengfeng, it's rare to see you so happy. What's the good news? Is the baby better?"
Gu Zhengfeng said with a smile, "It'll be soon, it'll be soon. One day our Qiao'er will be fine. Just wait for the good news."
Jiang Qiao saw that after they walked over, they were all shaking their heads and sighing. She knew why they were sighing; they probably all thought that Gu Zhengfeng had lost his mind.
However, Gu Zhengfeng didn't care what everyone thought. Four years had passed, he had waited for four years, and he deserved to be happy.
"Dad, Dad, you have to stay calm."
Gu Zhengfeng rarely joked with his daughter, saying, "I'm not even close to it yet. When you wake up tomorrow, I'll have to treat them to a good drink. I want everyone to be happy."
After going to his father's office, Gu Zhengfeng first contacted Gu Zhengkai by phone.
These two brothers are really straightforward; they both get straight to the point. Gu Zhengfeng said directly that he was entrusted to ask his nephew to visit someone when he had time. The person's name was Yang Anxiu. He gave her the address, asked her about her situation briefly, and then hung up the phone.
"My God, you two are really like brothers, not saying a word more than necessary."
Gu Zhengfeng smiled and said, "What are you talking about? They're all operators answering the phone. Too much talk will only lead to mistakes. Just keep it to yourselves."
Gu Zhengfeng was busy with work, while Jiang Qiao left some food in her father's office. She was leaving soon, and she was worried her father might get hungry. She also put away some medicine and other inconspicuous items for him.
Hou Diankui was quite excited after finding the item, but who would have thought that he would be detained as soon as he got off the train and took only a few steps?
Those clueless young people didn't care what Hou Diankui did for a living. Anyway, one of them knew what he did, so Hou Diankui was now in a situation where he couldn't explain himself.
Moreover, there's no point in reasoning with these people. They're used to being powerful and domineering, and they think they're the masters who save the world.
Wherever they go, no matter who they are, they are treated differently. But when they encounter Hou Diankui, this stubborn old man, do you think these people will tolerate his bad temper?
Unfortunately, these people, who were used to being domineering and powerful, encountered someone who dared to lay a hand on them for the first time.
It wasn't exactly Hou Diankui who took the initiative; it was these arrogant people who bullied the old man. Do you think the old man would tolerate their behavior?
If reasoning doesn't work, then let's fight! Who's afraid of who? The old man's skills have improved a lot since Jiang Qiao left. He hasn't had a chance to practice with anyone until today.
Looking at the bunch of little bastards lying on the ground groaning, the old man felt a sense of disappointment and frustration towards his opponents for the first time.
The old man was too lazy to pay attention to these people anymore. He was in a hurry to take the bus home because there were people at home waiting for him to rescue.
Unfortunately, he wanted to leave, but some people didn't want him to. Some were even proactive, and they had already called the police when the other side started to take action.
Well, the old man hadn't gone far before he was stopped by two groups of people. One group was because the old man had hit his own men, and the other group had come because someone had called the police.
The question of who should be handed over to a certain person immediately sparked a debate between the two groups. Just as Yang Yunqi said, they usually had to be tolerant of these people, so why were they arguing with them today?
There was no other reason than that the person in charge of the police team had participated in digging up the place where enemy agents had buried weapons back then, so Hou Diankui knew him. However, since they hadn't seen each other for several years, the old man Hou didn't recognize him.
He knew that if Hou Diankui fell into the hands of these people, he would be in deep trouble, or at least suffer a severe beating. He knew what the old man did, but he couldn't say it out loud.
But as luck would have it, Jiang He arrived at this time; this guy had gone out and looted a lot of good stuff.
So, he brought the things back first, leaving Jiang Hong and the others outside to work on the treasures.
They came to the city today with a purpose: to find connections and get things. They can't sweep the streets forever; it's shameful, and it doesn't sound good to others.
He wanted to bring himself and his sister to the city. At the very least, he had his buddies in the county town, and the two of them in the city, so they could call the shots here.
He'd gotten in touch with the other side's leader. Hearing that something had happened here, he came to see what was going on, hoping to steal something to take back with him, at least to get back the favors he'd done for them.
Therefore, when Jiang He arrived later and saw that the troublemaker was Hou Diankui, he was overjoyed.
“Oh ho, Master Chunming, you should interrogate this old fellow properly. He’s spreading feudal superstitions everywhere and pretending to be a ghost every day. Moreover, he’s never home all year round. I suspect he’s involved in speculation and profiteering, and he might even be connected to enemy agents.”
Upon hearing this, the old man's beard stood on end in anger.
"You little brat, you're spouting nonsense and talking rubbish. How many times have you been locked up yourself? You've done all sorts of petty theft and other shady things."
Your grandmother raised you all to adulthood. Now she's paralyzed on the kang (a heated brick bed), and you, as her grandson, have you ever taken care of her for even a day or bought her a single bite to eat?
"You scum have no right to question me, folks. You don't care about someone like him, so why are you picking on an old man like me?"
This time, the leader who accepted the bribe regretted it. Why did his subordinates introduce such a person to him? If the enemy had a handle on him, he could be brought down at any time.
The old man's words weren't in vain; at least some people believed them, and their gazes towards Jiang He were filled with ill intent.
"who is he?"
After all, Jiang He had come with their leader. The man touched his nose and said, "This is a new soldier who is going to join our revolutionary struggle, but he hasn't been assessed yet. Don't listen to this old man's nonsense. Take him away."
Hou Diankui sat down on his luggage with an air of nonchalance, saying, "Let's see who dares to do that."
Those who had just witnessed the old man's skills were all frightened and retreated. The people who came later with their weapons didn't know who this old man was, so they just stared blankly at Hou Diankui with their weapons in hand.
"Be smart and come with us, otherwise we will treat it as stubborn resistance."
Hou Diankui turned to look at another group of people.
"Comrades, can anyone do me a favor and make a phone call? Tell them that this old man is about to die, and if they don't want to see Jiang Qiao die, they should send someone over right away."
The person who knew Hou Diankui widened his eyes upon hearing Jiang Qiao's name. Not only him, but everyone present looked at Hou Diankui in disbelief.
