Xu Jingnian swallowed the fruit in his mouth.
His expression gradually became serious and he dropped his joking look.
Said, "I would like to ask you to help take care of my nephew and my mother while I am away.
They are the only family I have left, and I am terrified of being alone in this world."
He took a deep breath, took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Qiao Luoluo.
"This is a token of my former status as General Shenwei. Many of my subordinates know it. If I don't return within half a month, it means we have failed and I will die.
One month later, Xueying will take you to the winery on XX Street to find the owner there. He is my brother who has a life-long friendship with me.
He will take care of you. I have left you a house where you can live your life behind closed doors. You don’t have to worry about making a living and you can live happily and comfortably.”
After he finished speaking, his eyes turned slightly red.
Qiao Luoluo took the jade pendant and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of your family..."
Xu Jingnian hugged her suddenly and whispered in her ear, "Just make sure they're full. Remember my words. If there's any danger to their lives, promise me, leave them alone and run."
When Xu Jingnian said this, tears fell like rain.
Qiao Luoluo was also shocked.
It turned out that he chose Qiao Luoluo over Qiao Luoluo and his family.
This idea coincides with Qiao Luoluo's.
But, did he forget that Qiao Luoluo had space and could bring people in at the critical moment?
But she was not willing to do so easily. A secret is only a secret if it is kept secret forever.
She couldn't believe people's hearts, especially those of low character like Wang Huabei.
After leaving the space, Xu Jingnian went outside to discuss matters with the third prince.
It was getting late and Qiao Luoluo was a little tired, so he went to bed with his clothes on and didn't say a word for the whole day.
A few days passed quickly.
The people outside were busy day and night, writing, drawing, and discussing things with each other.
Qiao Luoluo didn't really understand either. If you want to rebel, just rebel. Why do you have to deal with so many complicated things?
Is the rebellion about who has a higher level of education?
However, all this has nothing to do with Qiao Luoluo.
Her daily routine is to accompany her two children in reading and writing, and to deepen the degree of PUA of her mother-in-law, so as to prevent the old lady from getting out of control.
The two children are at the age where they should learn cultural knowledge, but the traditional learning methods are too difficult for them to get started.
Therefore, Qiao Luoluo first taught them pinyin, and found several teaching materials in the space that she herself didn't know why they were there.
Anyway, it’s very useful.
The children were very happy looking at the cute letter drawings in the textbooks. Their enthusiasm for learning was greatly improved and they did not feel it was a burden at all.
Xu Jingnian is busy most of the time, but whenever he has some free time, he will come over to listen to Qiao Luoluo teaching the children, accompany her for meals, or go to her space to help her farm.
The couple's feelings for each other grew stronger and stronger, and they became close friends who could talk about anything.
They are also a couple who share weal and woe.
On the fifth day of their stay, Qiao Luoluo had just finished teaching the child, and the child went to play with the Third Prince's guards and Blood Shadow.
Xu Jingnian came, closed the door, and asked to go into the space to talk to Qiao Luoluo.
Qiao Luoluo thought they were about to start a rebellion, so he nodded solemnly and took him into the space.
Xu Jingnian said, "Lolo, to be honest, we don't have enough food here, but the capital is in a state of panic, and even we can't get any food.
So, I want to buy some food from you."
He took out a gold hairpin inlaid with jade. Next to the jade, it was decorated with various gemstone beads. It was exquisitely crafted and very beautiful.
Xu Jingnian said, "Originally I was going out to look for food. This hairpin was given to me by the Third Prince, who wanted me to pawn it for money, but I thought, I shouldn't let this wealth go to waste.
Take the hairpin and exchange it for ten bags of grain, a pig, and some vegetables."
Qiao Luoluo looked at it, her eyes full of stars!
This amount is obviously pure gold, and the gems on it are also dazzling, although there are a few ice cracks when looking through the light.
But it is already of top quality.
Not to mention a whole gold hairpin, even just a few small gem beads on it would be enough to exchange for the things he mentioned!
Qiao Luoluo laughed and patted his shoulder, "Little brother, you have a bright future. If you have any good things in the future, just come to me!"
Hearing that she agreed, Xu Jingnian thanked her again and again.
He was afraid that Qiao Luoluo would think that he was trying to get her food for free and would look down on him.
At night, Xu Jingnian took Qiao Luoluo out quietly, and Qiao Luoluo put the things out in a nearby cave.
She took out 20 bags of food, two big fat pigs and a sheep.
20 kilograms of vegetables and 5 kilograms of dried meat.
A lot more than he said.
She couldn't let her man embarrass himself in front of his boss, right?
Xu Jingnian thanked her, sent her back to the room, and then came out to bring these things back.
The explanation given to the outside world was that he met a traveling merchant trapped in the mountains and exchanged his gold hairpin for all his food.
Makes sense, right?
Anyway, the third prince believed it and was very happy.
I felt deeply comforted that I had helped a fellow citizen in need.
Although the actual value of these things is far less than that gold hairpin.
After hearing this, Qiao Luoluo couldn't help but feel that the Third Prince was either hypocritical or too soft-hearted. Such a person should be the emperor...
It's a bit inappropriate.
But she definitely wouldn't say these.
Two more days passed, and life still seemed to be going on as dull as ever.
Qiao Luoluo is the same as before, but her mother-in-law Wang Huabei's life is not peaceful.
It’s not that the old lady is causing trouble, but Wang Huabei has become addicted to pigs and eats as much as she can every day.
She had never seen such abundant supplies in her life, let alone eaten such delicious food.
Not only do we have to eat meat at every meal, but we also have two bowls of rice and a pot of vegetables.
The maid who delivered the food grinned at the sight.
Several strong men couldn't eat as much as she did.
Qiao Luoluo didn't mock or stop her. If she didn't have space and supplies, she would probably starve for a few months like her.
Xu Jingnian said it several times, but it was of no use.
He had no choice but to instruct the maid to serve less rice and tell her that there was not much food left and that the daily amount was limited.
Only then did Wang Huabei restrain herself.
That night, Qiao Luoluo came back from farming in the space, washed up and lay down on the bed.
Getting ready to fall into a sweet dream.
suddenly!
The system alarm sounded, waking her up in shock!
