Sun Quan was an oddball; he only sent Lü Meng to deliver rice and grain, and never sent anything of higher quality.
They didn't send any cloth, supplies, or money, let alone any high-quality medicine.
Qiao Jingjing was suspended by a long line.
Qiao Manman still felt that General Sun's team was very benevolent.
They were still deeply grateful for General Sun's kindness.
As four or five days passed, Qiao Jingjing's face looked much better, and the wounds on her back had scabbed over.
Only then did Qiao Manman dare to confess.
"Sister, I haven't told you about what happened a couple of days ago. I was afraid you would worry, but you know I didn't mean to hide it from you."
"When we ran out of rice and food, I borrowed some from my neighbors for the first two days, but times were tough and my neighbors were also short of food and clothing."
"I then went to ask General Sun and General Zhou for help, and they provided us with assistance for a few days."
“But sister, there’s something else. Second sister-in-law hasn’t been found yet. Qiao Er has collapsed, and Father and Uncle Peng are in this state. So I thought I’d spin some coarse cloth from hemp and make a few saddlebags that we can use for marching and fighting. I’m going to send them to General Sun and General Zhou, firstly to thank them for their help, and secondly to ask them to look for Second Sister-in-law.”
!
Qiao Jingjing looked at Qiao Manman.
In just a few days, her sister has been mentioning General Sun and General Zhou all the time!
Are these two handsome men truly the tragic fate of the two sisters?
Tragedy means something that doesn't last long and has a bad ending.
Instead of staying far away, the silly girl went up to ask for help.
It's really a lucky coincidence.
"Manman, don't worry about these things. I'm all better now, so don't worry. I'll take care of everything at home, big and small. I've thought about how to take care of Dad in his old age, how to rebuild our family business, and even what kind of husband to find for you. I've also thought about the second wife of Qiao you mentioned. I'll go out and find her myself right away."
"Miao Miao is timid and cowardly, and she's always trying to get something for nothing. She's definitely suffered this time. But don't worry too much, everyone. It's chaotic times, so what's so unusual about this? You were captured and sold to Liu Ajiao, but we sisters were able to reunite. That's a blessing in disguise. As for Miao Miao, I think she's probably in those people's hands. The key is that Qiao Er and Qiao San don't use their brains, and their concern has thrown them into disarray. They went out to look for her, and she's still missing after all these days..."
Qiao Jingjing really didn't want to see the simple and kind-hearted Qiao Manman go to Sun Ce and Zhou Yu again because of these trivial matters at home.
She knew what happened next.
At present, it seems that Lujiang City has already become Sun Ce's possession, but this is not the case. Yuan Shu is a petty man, and he will not let Sun Ce occupy such a large and prosperous land. After all, he does not trust Sun Ce.
It was Liu Xun, who was also Liu Ajiao's father, who drove Sun Ce away to become the governor of Lujiang.
Why.
Liu Ajiao's father!
Fortunately, Liu Ajiao had already married and moved to Shouchun.
We'll talk about that later.
"Isn't it just about finding He Miaomiao? Don't worry, Manman, I'll find her alive or dead. Once I go out, I'll find her and bring her to you."
Qiao Jingjing covered her face with a mask to protect herself from the cold wind outside.
“Manman, remember this: no matter what happens, I’ll find a way. General Sun and General Zhou are very busy and are now the most important people in this city. Let’s not bother them with these trivial matters.”
"You stay home and behave yourself. I'm going out, but I'll be back before dark. Don't wander off. Understand?"
Qiao Manman was standing behind.
Qiao Manman didn't dare to say another word. After all, it was really not honorable for her to bother two big shots like General Sun and General Zhou with such a small matter as not having rice at home.
Qiao Manman couldn't understand it either.
My sister was extremely resistant to General Sun and General Zhou.
On the other hand, men should marry when they come of age, and women should marry when they come of age. Actually, General Sun is a good person. He is incredibly brave and seems destined for great things. Qiao Manman thinks that if her sister could marry him, they would be a very well-matched couple.
I don't understand why my sister is like this.
Qiao Jingjing went out and took a few steps down the street. The scene before her was truly desolate and bleak. Few people dared to walk on this road.
The little child, the little child, dares not cry. The beggar, the beggar, dares not come out for a walk. Even the cats and dogs are well-behaved, hiding in the dog hole or in the corner of the wall.
Why, you ask?
Qiao Jingjing knows.
Of course, it's that brother Sun Ce, he kills people without blinking an eye.
If it can be killed with a single blow, there's no point in arguing.
Just do the math! How many people did Sun Ce kill after he captured Lujiang? Countless.
Anyway, he killed all those who opposed him with a single blow.
So don't be fooled by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's handsome appearance and refined manners; they're all charming and capable, and Zhou Yu is even gentle and elegant, which has captivated Qiao Manman.
But you have no idea how ruthless he was the night before, killing people without blinking an eye.
It was truly murder; with a swift stroke of the knife, a head rolled on the ground, blood gushing out.
Sigh, what can you do when Manman is such a silly girl?
In contrast, Qiao Jingjing could be considered exceptionally gifted. She walked from the south of the city to the north, and then circled around to the west, passing by the courtyard where Liu Ajiao was staying, and actually discovered some clues about Qiao Ersao.
At first, Qiao Jingjing discovered that Qiao Er's cronies, the Li and Zhu families, were two idle and good-for-nothings.
She was cautious.
I hid to the side and listened to a few of their conversations.
Upon hearing this, I realized it was serious. Those two scoundrels were the ones who broke into the Qiao family and kidnapped Qiao Manman and He Miaomiao. Later, taking advantage of the chaos caused by Sun Ce's capture of the city, these two wicked creatures robbed the Qiao family of all their valuables.
