"I understand. You don't have to worry about this. As long as we can find it, my people will not let it go." Zhou Shao smiled and said to Li Miaomiao
Li Miaomiao felt a little uneasy about Zhou Shao's unfathomable smile. When she first met Zhou Shao, she felt that he was a smiling tiger. Sure enough, he was a guy with a black heart and cruel hands. Pei Guoan told her many times about the things Zhou Shao had done.
"What's that expression on your face? What are you thinking about?"
Zhou Shao was a smart guy. Seeing Li Miaomiao's expression, he probably guessed what she was thinking and knocked on Li Miaomiao's forehead twice in annoyance.
With his status, some things are unavoidable, but he doesn't think he has done anything overly scary in front of Li Miaomiao. But this girl just looks at him like a terrorist, which is really infuriating.
Pei Guoan knew why and felt a little amused. Protecting Li Miaomiao behind him was very clear in meaning.
Even if Zhou Shao recognized Li Miaomiao as his sister, Li Miaomiao was still his wife, and he would not allow others to bully her.
Zhou Shao couldn't stand Pei Guoan's protective look. The way his brother-in-law looked at his brother-in-law was no different from the way a father-in-law looked at his son-in-law. He just couldn't stand him no matter what.
"Miao Miao is my sister now, Pei Guoan, so be careful when you do anything in the future. If you bully my sister, I won't allow it."
After hearing Zhou Shao's words of protecting his son, Li Miaomiao looked at Pei Guoan with a gloating look, just like his brothers at home.
Pei Guoan is a capable guy. He has won over her brothers. Her family used to worry that Pei Guoan would not treat her well, but now they think that she is not paying enough attention to him. Every time she goes back to her family, they tell her to be nicer to Pei Guoan.
This change was so big that Li Miaomiao didn't know it yet. It must have been Pei Guoan's doing. He took advantage of her not being at home and went to her parents' house to show his courtesy, causing her family members to rebel and stand on his side.
Now there is a brother-in-law who protects her. Zhou Shao is not like her brothers in the family. He is not so easily fooled by Pei Guoan.
"Miao Miao is my wife. I love her so much that I wouldn't want to bully her. Besides, Miao Miao has more than one brother. He's my biological brother, my eldest brother-in-law, and they all agree with me as their brother-in-law."
Pei Guoan said this, looking at Zhou Shao with a critical look, his meaning was very clear.
His wife has a biological brother, and when someone came to be his foster brother, he took himself very seriously and wanted to seize the position in his wife's heart. He couldn't even give in to his son, let alone this brother-in-law who came to his house.
Zhou Shao touched his teeth with his tongue and looked at Pei Guoan even more displeased.
But they are all smart people, and they can understand each other's meaning just by exchanging glances.
Li Miaomiao didn't know that the two men could still compete with each other like this.
"Miaomiao, the clue you found today is very important to me. I'll check it out right now and send the information to you as soon as possible."
Seeing Zhou Shao leave, Pei Guoan hugged Li Miaomiao jealously and said, "Why did you agree to him? This guy wants to be my brother-in-law. He looks like a troublemaker."
Pei Guoan knew that recognizing Zhou Shao as her brother would be good for Li Miaomiao, so he didn't stop her, but at this moment he couldn't help feeling jealous.
Li Miaomiao found Pei Guoan's open jealousy somewhat amusing. "If you weren't happy, you would have stopped him a long time ago. You actually recognize Zhou Shao's character, right? Besides, I don't want you to work so hard. It's always good to have more help. The main thing is that Zhou Shao does take good care of me. Although he's a bit rude, he's really protecting me."
"The Zhou family is indeed very influential in the capital. Your situation is different, and some secrets may not be kept so strictly. With the Zhou family behind you, your safety will be guaranteed."
Li Miaomiao nodded, understanding Pei Guoan's good intentions. In fact, doing so is indeed beneficial. The Zhou family has always been a staunch supporter. Not to mention its current status in the capital, its future will be prosperous as the situation changes.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. While we have some free time, go help me with the work."
The information has been almost sorted out now. If you want to know more, you can only wait for Zhou Shao's people to send new information. It is time to grow vegetables now. Although it is still a little early, Li Miaomiao has a way to grow them well.
Plant them early, and you can pick whatever vegetables you want to eat in the yard without having to run around to grab the vegetables.
The most important thing is that it makes it easier for her to sneak in. Otherwise, she would not be able to explain the origin of the vegetables that are not available in the vegetable market or the black market.
Fortunately, Pei Guoan's yard is not small. After clearing away all the flowers and plants and making use of the idle and abandoned areas, he was able to create several large vegetable plots, which are enough for daily vegetable growing.
Considering the drought this year, even if we have money and tickets, we will have nowhere to buy food and vegetables. These places should be utilized even more.
Pei Guoan looked at Li Miaomiao in confusion: "What kind of work are you doing?"
He finished all the housework and even swept the yard.
"Since we're staying in the provincial capital, we have to make long-term plans. Buying vegetables is not only expensive, but also difficult and not fresh. It's better to grow some vegetables ourselves. Look, we have quite a lot of space in our yard. We can use it to grow vegetables and then we won't have to buy them anymore."
Pei Guoan had never thought of this before, but after hearing what Li Miaomiao said, it made a lot of sense.
"You're right. I'll go and create a vegetable patch right away. I'll arrange what you want to plant."
"No need. Just help me clear the land and loosen the soil. I've already grown the seedlings and are just waiting to be planted."
Pei Guoan's eyes darkened when he heard this. He knew everything Li Miaomiao did every day, but he didn't know when she would start raising rice seedlings, unless...
"Okay, then I'll go clear the land, loosen the soil and fertilize it. You can plant whatever you want."
Seeing that Pei Guoan had indeed gone to make room and dig the soil, Li Miaomiao quickly went to the open space behind the kitchen and bought various seedlings from the space and placed them there. They were all half-grown seedlings. If they were planted at this time and well watered and fertilized, they would bloom and bear fruit in no time.
Thinking of this, Li Miaomiao bought two bags of organic fertilizer from the system space and piled them on this open space.
Usually no one comes here, and it is a blind spot. Even Pei Guoan probably can't be sure whether she has put anything here before.
Of course, even if Pei Guoan knew, Li Miaomiao believed that Pei Guoan would pretend not to know, as if it was a tacit understanding.
After putting the things away, Li Miaomiao took a hoe and went to the yard to loosen the soil with Pei Guoan while applying the base fertilizer.
"This flower looks really pretty when it blooms. Did you really pull it out?"
Pei Guoan looked at the flower seedlings that had already grown many new shoots and buds, and asked with some regret.
