Qiao Yu lay on the Simmons mattress, which she found too soft and uncomfortable to sleep on. But the train ride was too tiring, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep soon after.

The next day, after she washed up and went downstairs, she heard Aunt Wang say, "Comrade Qiao, are you up? The chief had someone put some popsicles in the refrigerator a long time ago. Do you want me to take them out and try them for you now?"

Qiao Yu was in a trance for a moment, obviously still not awake, and after a while he said, "It's so early in the morning, eating too cold will hurt your stomach, I'll eat in the afternoon."

"Hey, okay, I made some red bean porridge this morning, can I bring some to you?"

Qiao Yu nodded.

While eating, Qiao Yu asked the old man about the eating problem.

For someone of his rank, grain and meat are rationed every month, and the guards deliver fresh food every morning. But in fact, food is tight across the country, and it is difficult for someone of his high position to eat well since he sets an example himself.

All the meat this month was moved to the past few days when Qiao Yu was at home.

In other words, once she leaves, the old man will have to eat green leafy vegetables every day.

The red bean porridge in Qiao Yu's bowl suddenly lost its fragrance.

She quickly finished her meal, then stood up and said, "Auntie Wang, I'm going out for a walk."

"Well, okay, Comrade Qiao, come back early and I'll make you dumplings for lunch."

"good."

Qiao Yu copied a lot of things, especially food. She accumulated a lot in the past six months. Even if she went to the black market to exchange old items and gold, she still had a lot of food left.

She went out for a walk, actually wanting to take out the bacon, sausage and flour.

Mr. Zhang had greeted the military compound, so the guards knew Qiao Yu. However, she left with empty hands and came back with things on her back, so she was inevitably inspected.

Qiao Yu: ...

The guard looked at her several times, as if he didn't expect her to be able to get such good things. After the routine inspection, he let her go.

Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and walked inside with his things on his back.

Aunt Wang was surprised to see that she had brought so many good things. She said, "Comrade Qiao, where did you get these?"

Qiao Yu chuckled and there was no response.

As if she had guessed something, Aunt Wang said nothing more.

Some things need to be criticized by Mr. Zhang, a relative.

When Mr. Zhang saw the good stuff in the backpack, he said:

He had just adopted his granddaughter, and he was worried that if he spoke too harshly to her, she would turn around and disown him.

Grandpa Zhang hesitated and paused for a while before finishing his meal. While Aunt Wang was clearing away the pots and bowls, he took her to the study.

"Xiao Yu, I know you are a grateful child. Before your life story was exposed, you took care of the two children who were not related to you by blood even when you were in such a difficult situation. You came to me thinking about repaying me...

But those things are sold on the black market, right? "

"Grandpa is very good at predicting things."

"Our military compound is under strict security, so you'd better not do this kind of thing in the future."

Qiao Yu touched his nose and said dryly, "I know. I didn't expect that I would have to undergo routine inspection every time I enter the compound. I won't do it next time. I didn't think about this matter enough. I hope it doesn't affect Grandpa?"

Master Zhang saw that she was not angry and understood his difficulties. He was so smart that he wished that the foolish couple would be torn into pieces!

If he wasn't deliberately mistaken, this granddaughter of his would definitely be his successor if he were to train her up!

The eldest grandson is too upright, and the second grandson is a scientific researcher who is away from home all year round...

Only this granddaughter suited his taste.

"No. Just once. No big deal."

"That's good."

Zhang Laozi: "Zhang Fu and his wife know that you are in Beijing. If you have nothing to do, don't leave the compound, so you won't run into them."

"Oh, is grandma's dowry in the compound?"

“…Not here.”

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "I can't stay in the compound all the time while I'm in Beijing, can I? Besides, they are the ones who did the wrong thing, why should I avoid them? Grandpa, it's not that I don't want to see them, on the contrary, I want to see what kind of parents reversed their genes to give birth to such a smart person like me."

"...Hahahahaha!" Mr. Zhang liked her boldness and confidence.

As soon as Mr. Zhang went to work, Qiao Yu would stroll around.

We have to wait until the weekend to dig up grandma's dowry. I heard it is buried on a mountain somewhere.

She knew that she would have to meet Zhang Fu and his wife during her trip to Beijing, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Zhang Fu is a university professor and has little free time.

He knew that the root cause of the family's current difficult situation was his biological daughter, so he discussed with his beloved wife Fu Yujing to persuade the child to come back. With the help of the child, the relationship with Mr. Zhang could also be eased.

Fu Yujing came to see Qiao Yu without telling Baoer.

I was somewhat reluctant when I came here, but when I saw that Qiao Yu's face was 60% like my own and 40% like Zhang Fu, a director who was good at picking couples, as beautiful as a flower, and his temperament was not like that of a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, I couldn't help but be moved.

Blood ties are sometimes so strange.

Before they met, all she was thinking about was Bao Er, whom she had raised for more than ten years. It was the feelings that developed over time, but after meeting Qiao Yu, her heart was suddenly filled with anger.

Her beautiful daughter, who was born exceptionally beautiful, had been tortured by that vicious couple in the countryside for more than ten years...

Qiao Yu saw the other person's expression constantly changing, and then looked at his age, and seemed to have guessed his identity, but he pretended not to know and continued to play dumb: "Comrade? What's up?"

"You must be Xiaoyu... I am your mother..."

Qiao Yu didn't say anything. Fu Yujing probably thought it was too sentimental. She laughed awkwardly to ease the atmosphere before asking, "Are you staying at your grandfather's place when you come to Beijing?"

"Why? You want me to visit your home?" Qiao Yu paused and said with a smile, "It's not impossible. Lead the way?"

Fu Yujing had never seen her strength, and she always felt that something was wrong with things being so easy.

But her purpose in looking for her was to recognize her daughter, so things went smoothly. It was the only time in nearly half a month that things went smoothly, so she didn't think much about it and took Qiao Yu back to the compound.

The houses allocated by the school are not as good as those in the military compound, so Zhang Fu and his wife live in a three-bedroom house.

One bedroom is for the couple, one bedroom is for Zhang Baoer, and one is left for Zhang Zhan. Even if the second son Zhang Zhou comes back, he has to share a bedroom with Zhang Zhan.

Although the area is not large, compared with other families, this independent yard is quite good.

Fu Yujing made Qiao Yu a cup of malt milk and said, "Don't bother your grandpa. He's old and can't stand the hardship. Move in with us... so that mom can take a good look at you."

You haven't even acknowledged me yet, but you're already acting so arrogantly?

Qiao Yu was sarcastic in his heart, and after sitting down, he just said, "I just want to drink boiled water."

Fu Yujing was about to say who doesn't like sweet things these days, but after meeting Qiao Yu's gaze, he closed the enamel pot, poured her a cup of hot water, and said, "You can drink it after it cools down."

Qiao Yu nodded, and then listened to Fu Yujing's imagination about a beautiful future.

This "future" was planned by Zhang Fu and his wife themselves. She was in it, but she had nothing to do with it.

After all, she came here to see this confused couple and how the fake guy had the audacity to stay in the Zhang family.

Oh, and take a look at that cheap brother.

The original owner suffered when she was alive, so she naturally wouldn't let this couple and that fake person be happy.

Fu Yujing is just here to get scolded.

Qiao Yu looked at the woman's longing expression and felt infinite sarcasm in his heart.

She came to break the beautiful illusion of Zhang family.
