Dai Yong'an looked at her with surprise at her expression of facing death: "Comrade Miao, are you alright?"
The voice... sounds somewhat familiar.
Why didn't you act against her immediately?
Miao Qihuai slowly opened his eyes and saw Dai Yong'an standing in front of him.
"Dai Yong'an?"
"Um."
She remembered that there were three people chasing her, so where did they go?
Dai Yong'an: "Those three people ran away just now. I heard your voice from not far away and came over."
Miao Qihuai understood what was going on.
She got up from the ground, patted the dust off her clothes, and held the money she had earned from the black market in her arms.
"Thank you, Battalion Commander Dai."
Dai Yong'an: "Why were those three people chasing you?"
Miao Qihuai looked at him for a few seconds, then asked in confusion, "Are you alone?"
Dai Yong'an's attention was indeed drawn, since he was still keeping watch on Lu Ting.
He replied, "No, no, Ji Hongwen is here too."
Miao Qihuai walked past him, her heart pounding. Tonight was truly too dangerous.
Not far away, Ji Hongwen, Lu Ting, Su Miaoyan and the others also rushed over. Seeing Miao Qihuai's disheveled appearance, Su Miaoyan patted her clothes and said, "Miao Qihuai, it's dangerous here at night. You should try not to go out alone in the future."
She knew that Miao Qihuai was going to the black market, and looking at his appearance, she knew that he had gone to the black market but had unfortunately been targeted.
Miao Qihuai nodded frantically: "Okay, I will. By the way, Su Miaoyan, I have something to tell you tomorrow. Now, I'll be going now."
Su Miaoyan also wanted to ask her about the black market, so she gave a soft "Mmm": "Okay, you can go back first. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Miao Qihuai quickly grabbed her things and left. After she left, Dai Yong'an asked, puzzled, "Sister-in-law, aren't you going to ask her what happened?"
Su Miaoyan shook her head: "Look at her like this, does she even have the mind to answer?"
That seems to be true.
Dai Yong'an said thoughtfully, "That makes sense!"
Lu Ting could easily see through his wife's thoughts. He said in a deep voice, "It's getting late, let's all go home."
Ji Hongwen and Dai Yong'an turned and left.
Lu Ting also escorted Su Miaoyan back to her courtyard.
...
The next day, Su Miaoyan got up early again and conducted another round of field research with her team.
This time they changed the location.
That is, they went to the local farmland.
A lot of watermelons are grown here. Although the area is not large, the fruits that grow are big and sweet.
The local people treated them to some food.
When asked who gave it to them, someone said, "This land belongs to Aida's family; they treated you to this meal."
"Aydana?"
Su Miaoyan felt that the name sounded familiar.
Oh, she remembered.
This is the name of the girl Lu Ting mentioned yesterday.
She didn't think much of it. Not far away, Aida scanned the crowd, trying to figure out which one was Chief Lu's wife.
But soon, she noticed the prettiest one in the crowd.
She's really good-looking.
Among the crowd, Su Miaoyan was dressed in a very ordinary shirt and pants, with only a simple braid hanging down in front of her chest.
But it couldn't hide her bright, watery eyes and her almost glowing white skin.
Aida was so captivated by the sight that she couldn't tear herself away.
She glanced at her own skin, then at the skin of the girl not far away.
A sense of inferiority arose spontaneously.
Could this be Chief Lu's wife?
She's so beautiful!
Aida slumped against the wall like a deflated balloon.
Her most prized beauty was outshone by someone else.
She stepped forward and struck up a conversation with Su Miaoyan.
"Are you a professor here to conduct research?"
Su Miaoyan looked at the girl standing in front of her and tried to remember her, but she didn't recognize her.
"Who are you……"
Aydana said directly, "I am Aydana, a villager here."
Su Miaoyan suddenly realized.
The girl is tall with thick eyebrows and big eyes. She has a striking, striking appearance and is quite pretty. She's the kind of girl who grows on you the more you look at her.
She smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Su Miaoyan, and I am a professor here for field research."
Aida was more direct: "Are you Chief Lu's wife?"
Su Miaoyan was slightly taken aback, wondering if this person was here to cause her trouble.
But……
Looking at the watermelon in her hand, Su Miaoyan felt that a girl like this probably wouldn't have any bad intentions.
She simply nodded and admitted, "Yes, I am."
Aida felt her heart break; this most beautiful woman was actually Chief Lu's wife.
Her eyes were red. Well, the other person was highly educated and so beautiful; she really couldn't compare.
She had been like a flower blooming in the desert just moments before, but now she seemed like a green leaf that had withered instantly. She only glanced at Su Miaoyan before turning and leaving.
Su Miaoyan didn't understand what the little girl was thinking.
All she could think about was going to the black market that night.
She didn't think much of it, but she also didn't expect that Aida wouldn't say anything.
However, Aida's appearance reminded her of Gu Shanqing.
Gu Shanqing also has this kind of personality.
She's been quite busy lately and hasn't been in touch with Gu Shanqing much, so she doesn't know how he's doing.
She's going to Yanjing soon, and she won't have much time to spend with her anymore. She'll have a good talk with her when she gets back.
Su Miaoyan continued to focus on the task at hand.
...
Night fell as expected.
Today, when Su Miaoyan returned to the courtyard, she found everyone reading the newspaper.
"Hey, have you heard? Rumor has it that in a few years, they're going to develop a market economy."
"How could that be? In this day and age, something like this is... Don't talk nonsense!"
"But it's written in the newspaper."
"No way, but my parents said that speculation and profiteering are not the mark of a good citizen."
"Hey, look, look! There's a picture down here...wait, isn't that Xiao Su?"
Song Zhenzhu was slightly surprised when she saw the black and white picture in the lower left corner.
He quickly grabbed the newspaper and went over.
"Xiao Su, look! Isn't this you?"
Su Miaoyan glanced through the photos; they seemed somewhat familiar. She didn't know when they were taken, but the background was the experimental field of the research institute.
Standing nearby were Emily and Franklin.
Looking behind, you can also see Yan Huaili.
This photo was taken when the professor from Yenching University came over.
Su Miaoyan immediately had a guess in her mind.
She nodded: "Yes, it's me."
Song Zhenzhu said happily, "It must have been Emily and Professor Franklin who cleared things up for us. I wonder if the military region has received the news."
At this moment, the military region was indeed bombed.
Because three important events have occurred.
The first thing: Xinjiang Province is vigorously developing water-saving agriculture. With funding from higher authorities, it is very likely to become the largest cotton production base and a land of melons and fruits in the future.
