Everyone only saw another figure chasing after him.
Qiao Yu was tall even in the famine-stricken north, with a body of golden proportions, and naturally long legs. In addition, due to the original owner's years of hard work, he was very strong and could run fast.
With overwhelming force, he rushed towards the thief's back!
The other party let out an "ah", and then the thief ate a mouthful of dust with a "plop".
Just as he was about to stand up and fight back, Qiao Yu dislocated the opponent's arm with both hands.
The creaking sound made the onlookers' scalps tingle.
When Qiao Yu heard the thief's wailing, she hit him on the head a few times.
The knock on the person's head made a loud bang!
The thief had run into Prince Yan and was very unlucky.
A few teeth were missing and his mouth was full of blood.
Not to mention any reaction, he didn't even faint on the spot, which was all because of the thief's strong physique.
Seeing several police officers in uniform approaching, Qiao Yu stopped torturing the thief, stood up, and spat at the back of his head: "You don't have a brain! Do you think you can be easily bullied or hit? You are unlucky to have run into me!"
Clap, clap, clap.
Endless applause broke out all around.
Qiao Yu then shouted in embarrassment: "We are all serving the people!!"
Why are you embarrassed?
Oh, she didn't intend to be a hero, it was the thief who was blind and bumped into her. She couldn't swallow this humiliation.
Like a victorious rooster, she returned to her starting position amid applause, only to find that the buyer had already run away, and standing behind her was a strange yet familiar tall figure.
Wearing a military uniform, his back was as straight as a pine tree, his temperament was upright, he stood tall there, and seemed to stand out from the crowd. Ordinary people became the background board in the hastily fast-forwarded movie, but he was a slow-motion shot, slowly turning around and meeting her gaze.
This one glance is a glance that lasts a lifetime.
…
The things in that basket are all carried by Old Zhou...well, Zhou Ze'an.
Half a year later, she saw her cheap husband again and almost didn't recognize him.
The back view and temperament are good-looking, but the face is really unkempt.
It's not that she's ugly.
On the contrary, the man has deep eyes, sword-like eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and even his lips...
Cough cough.
It was that face that was so sloppy, with half of it covered with stubble. His handsome appearance was obscured by this slovenliness.
Qiao Yu was a social bull. After confirming that the sloppy man was Lao Zhou, he gave an order: "Carry him on your back and go home!"
Zhou Ze'an: ...
Just do it silently.
After walking two steps, Qiao Yu finally responded and asked again, "Are you busy? Are you going somewhere else? Do you have any mission?"
Zhou Ze'an shook his head.
Only then did Qiao Yu feel relieved.
Along the way, Qiao Yu noticed that Comrade Zhou was a quiet person, so they always did the talking and he would occasionally reply.
She mentioned the current situation of her five children and how she now has a junior high school diploma and hopes to get a high school diploma based on her ability.
The land at home, the chickens we raise, etc.
After landing on the island, Qiao Yu felt dry mouth and tongue.
Zhou Ze'an heard her sudden pause, glanced at her cracked lips, took off the canister from his waist and handed it to her.
After Qiao Yu took it, he said casually, "Thank you."
After saying this, he poured water through the spout of the military water bottle.
The water is warm and the insulation effect seems good.
When he was no longer thirsty, Qiao Yu looked at the military water bottle and said, "How many of these do you have? There is only one military water bottle at home, but there are three beds. The wind is strong at the seaside, so I plan to get two more and fill them with hot water to warm the quilt before going to bed. But it's a pity that I have no way to get one."
Zhou Ze'an finally said the longest sentence since they met: "I'll do it."
Qiao Yu smiled and said, "Okay, thanks. I'll give you the bill later."
...why would I need her money?
Arriving at the compound, many people were surprised to see Zhou Ze'an and Qiao Yu traveling together. After the surprise, they greeted each other warmly.
Arriving at the gate of the courtyard where I live...
The front door was swept clean.
After entering, there are vegetables such as ginger, garlic and onions planted in the front yard, as well as two chickens.
The chickens were fed with corn cores from Qiao Yu's room, and were already laying eggs. Every time Qiao Yu went to touch them, he would find four eggs from the buttocks of two chickens a day.
The director of the Women's Federation caught five chickens and only raised two of them. Fortunately, they met the standards of each household, otherwise she would have had to sell off the extra ones.
Qiao Yu said all this to Zhou Ze'an after they arrived at the compound.
The household items were neatly arranged, and the floor and table were spotless.
Zhou Ze'an just thought that this woman was very skillful. She found the dusty razor and a set of toiletries and threw them into the enamel basin. She passed it to him and said, "Oh, by the way, Old Zhou, the military kid is busy with the housework and laundry. Of course, I don't let him work in vain. I give him money every month and let him keep it. I don't ask how he uses it. The children take turns washing the dishes."
By the way, he also mentioned that Xiaoyong was taken to school by Zhou Jun.
Old Zhou...
The man stroked his jaw, said "hmm", took the enamel basin, and walked towards the faucet.
Next to the faucet was a wooden rack with a number of enamel basins on it, each containing toiletries. Words were carved on the enamel basins with a knife.
Military, civil, martial, great, brave, and noble...
Zhou Ze'an glanced at his enamel basin, which was spotless.
Qiao Yu followed his line of sight.
All these enamel basins and toiletries are my own achievements! They were obtained by using the food I copied from the space!
Qiao Yu made up a story: "It's a hygiene issue. It's better for everyone to keep things separate. I just happened to be a relative. My grandfather and eldest brother are good people. They send a lot of things and money every month. So I decided to buy these for the children."

Zhou Ze'an said nothing.
After all, I was brushing my teeth and my mouth was full of foam.
Qiao Yu looked at——
He is too careless about brushing his teeth.
Other people brush their teeth very gently, for fear of hurting their gums or causing bleeding. But he is very quiet, as if he is brushing pig hair.
Qiao Yu reasonably suspected that before long, the bristles of his toothbrush would collapse like trampled grass.
But she didn't stop it or say anything.
We are all adults now. Can we change the habits we have developed over decades?
If she sees the kids brushing their teeth incorrectly, she will point it out right away and ask them to correct it. Comrade Zhou...
Open one eye and close one eye.
The man spat, rinsed his mouth with water, and then applied a few thin layers of soap on his chin. He rubbed out foam with his hands before shaving with a razor.
After shaving, the man said, "You are the boss at home."
Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
She was worried that she would marry a man who would not come home for a long time and would complain when he came home.
By this count, they are a perfect marriage match.
She doesn't go home, doesn't make trouble, and even if you give her money, she doesn't have to have children, let alone have a sex life.
Perfect, so perfect.
"Okay. Oh, by the way, how long will you stay this time?"
"Two months."
Qiao Yu: "That's enough, that's enough."
The man saw this and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm waiting for you to come back!"
The man's body stiffened slightly, and he heard the woman's small mouth opening and closing, and then she said, "I have to go to the capital to get my grandmother's dowry. When you were not at home before, there was no one to take care of the children. Now that you are back, I have time to spare."
Zhou Ze'an thought about it, nodded, and said, "Of course, you can, but before you leave, you have to treat your comrades to a meal."
