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, who is truly admirable, slept quite well that night. Although the culprit was not caught, at least she could vent her anger. Damn it, after waiting for so long, she finally got her chance.
The next morning, feeling refreshed, breakfast was already prepared before anyone even got up.
Zhang Dalei also observed Jiang Qiao carefully. She was completely unaffected by yesterday's events and was in high spirits.
"Good morning! Why are you up so early? Just eat whatever you like, we're not picky eaters."
As Jiang Qiao packed up the food, she said, "You may not be picky, but I can't skimp on it. Breakfast is very important. If you eat well, you'll have plenty of energy all morning. Come on, take a look. Eat whatever you like."
There were six side dishes on the table alone. You could say that you've never eaten this much at home. However, Jiang Qiao didn't prepare much, adhering to the principle of not wasting food. Basically, the meal would be enough to cover all the expenses.
After washing up, Song Shutian picked up a steamed bun with a smile, opened his mouth, and then froze.
He glanced at Jiang Qiao and said, "Sure, when did you make the dough? It tastes good, was it made with milk?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "It's milk powder. I brought it with me. I was too embarrassed to ask people for milk, so this way we'll have enough nutrition. One cup of milk powder for each person after the meal. I'll make some in a bit."
Now that we're cooking, we need to eat and drink well. Good health is the foundation for revolution, and that's how we can better deal with those enemies.
Zhao Anbang waved his arm and said, "Well said, let's eat. Once you've finished eating, don't waste the child's good intentions."
Zhang Dalei sat down and said while eating, "This is all. I could eat twice as much if you gave me. I've never eaten anything this good at home. Jiang Qiao, I finally understand what they mean when they say we're lucky to have such a good meal. What are you planning to do today?"
Jiang Qiao raised her chin and said, "Purchasing? I don't think I have anything to do today, right?"
Song Shutian nodded with a smile, "You can go shopping with peace of mind today. We'll take care of the rest."
Jiang Qiao laughed after hearing this, "Is it about what you're going to do next? If I were there, I'd probably hinder your smooth operation?"
Song Shutian grinned and said, "I understand perfectly. Buy more. Do you have enough money and tickets? I have some here, I'll give them to you in a bit."
Jiang Qiao, of course, did not refuse. "That's great! I'll buy more. You can all take some back as gifts for your families. There are many local specialties here. This is a perk of business trips. At least we can eat local delicacies from all over the country."
Cao Mingyuan sighed, "Only you have such a good attitude, still thinking about food. It seems we're really getting old, we're not used to the climate here anymore. Buy more, I won't be polite with you."
Jiang Qiao could roughly guess what Song Shutian and his group were going to do next. Feng Biao's continued absence was definitely not normal.
Therefore, Feng Biao will definitely go out for a stroll today, at least to let his family know that he is doing well and is safe.
As for Zhu Yunshan, Jiang Qiao estimated that there was a high chance that An Hong would be used to lure him in. As for how to do it, that would depend on Song Shutian's side.
Therefore, she went out to attend to her own business with peace of mind.
She didn't even consider the shops inside the base; transporting goods in was already quite a hassle, so she figured she shouldn't compete with everyone else for things. She borrowed a car and headed straight outside.
Zhao Anbang was still not at ease and wanted to send someone to accompany Jiang Qiao.
"No way, I'm fine on my own. With another person, I'll feel awkward. Besides, if I go out like this, I might attract the enemy's attention even more. If I get caught, then we're all done for."
Zhao Anbang said with a serious expression, "The more this happens, the more careful we need to be. Girl, be careful. Here, take this money and buy whatever you like."
Jiang Qiao waved her hand. "Uncle, how could I be short of this little bit of money? Don't forget what your niece does. Don't worry, I have my own money. If I take money from my brother Song, it's to help him buy things for his family. I'm leaving now. I'll treat the little mute tomorrow. I'll bring back some good food when I get back."
Everyone watched Jiang Qiao drive away. "Sigh, there's really no comparison. Look at that kid, he has everything he could ever want. I really envy his parents."
Zhu Yunshan chuckled from the side, "Don't say you're envious, even I'm envious. Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll go for a walk and see if there's anything around here that needs improvement. Who wants to come with me?"
The others shook their heads. "Go ahead, and bring back some fruit while you're at it. Remember to buy plenty, or we won't have enough to eat."
With Zhao Anbang's return, the people on the work group are relatively more relaxed. However, they haven't received orders to leave, so for the time being, they are only assisting Zhao Anbang with his work.
The main party has returned, so they can't really help much; they can only help coordinate.
Zhao Anbang gave a few instructions and then went to do his work. He had a meeting to attend in the morning. As for Song Shutian and the others, he wasn't worried. Now that they had a target, they could just wait for the enemy to take the bait.
Zhu Yunshan didn't go out for no reason; this morning, he saw a piece of paper on the wall of the outhouse and then took a small piece of paper out of a crack in the wall.
Judging from the handwriting, it must have been written by that woman, but the content really surprised him.
An Hong wrote in the note that strict checks had begun over there, and it was really unsafe to keep the items in her hands. Even if she stored them elsewhere, she was worried that someone might accidentally discover them, so she asked Zhu Yunshan to quickly retrieve the items.
Then, she arranged for someone to send the items out. She really didn't have a chance, and she didn't know what had happened at the farm. Anyway, the inspections were very strict.
Zhu Yunshan didn't know what had happened. Although he could see Song Shutian, this man wouldn't tell them anything, since they belonged to different units.
However, he strongly suspected that Song Shutian and his group had already set their sights on the farm.
In the morning, Wang Benshan, who was driving a horse-drawn carriage with workers to work on the farm, encountered Jiang Qiao driving past them.
I was wondering why this person suddenly appeared, and why he was alone.
Could it be that Feng Biao's absence last night was related to this person?
So what was she doing going out at this time? Was it just for fun, or was there something else going on?
I arrived at the farm with a heavy heart, only to receive a message from a colleague.
"Old Wang, your Feng Biao came over early this morning, taking An Hong with him. He said they had to go out for a while, so don't worry."
"Feng Biao came by? Alone, or with someone?"
The other person smiled and said, "He came to me himself and told me. He went out in one of our transport trucks. What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
