The Qiao family was busy, and the next day Qiao Feng came with soldiers. When the villagers saw them, they followed them. Everyone thought that the Qiao family had done something wrong.
The Qiao family was also very confused. Have they been working at home recently?
Village chief Qiao Feng: "This is the Qiao family. The Zhen you are talking about is the eldest daughter-in-law of this family."
When everyone heard this, they were like, wow! He is here to look for Zhen.
"Could it be that Zhen did something bad? I knew this person was no good!"
"This shrew, Zhen, got her comeuppance, didn't she?"
"I see that Zhen hasn't gone out recently. Could she have committed a crime?" Some people felt something was wrong.
The soldiers were invited into the yard and the door was closed to block the view of others. The village chief Qiao Feng also followed in. He was actually a little worried about whether the Qiao family had done something. Although he believed in the character of the Qiao family, the soldiers had now come to their door.
The officers and soldiers who came over discovered that they were the same family who had killed the tiger last time. No wonder they were appreciated by the nobleman.
Knowing that they were looking for Zhen Yue, Qiao Dashan called Zhen Yue out, and Qiao Chao went with her.
"Hello everyone, I am Zhen." Zhen Yue bowed.
"It was you who recognized the human traffickers last time, right? And you even had the courage to fight against them!" The officers and soldiers also thought that the village woman was quite powerful for daring to fight against the human traffickers.
Zhen Yue: "Uh... I was a little panicked and stabbed them accidentally. I was just scared at the time." Zhen Yue said with a frightened expression.
Qiao Chao on the side also said: "My wife was just afraid at the time. She was afraid that my child would be snatched away, so she took this desperate measure."
The leading soldier was named Zhang Yongsheng. He waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid. Because of your courage in fighting, we were able to catch the traffickers in time. Later, we also destroyed their den. So the lord thinks you are brave and is here to reward you."
Zhang Yongsheng took out a small box from his pocket and said, "This is a gift from a noble man."
Zhen Yue took the exquisite box and bowed, "Thank the noble lord and the county magistrate for me." Zhen Yue winked at Qiao Chao, who didn't understand at first. Zhen Yue made a gesture of money.
Qiao Chao immediately went to his room and took out the money. He still had the red envelope from the New Year, so he put the money in it. When he came out, the officers and soldiers politely declined the invitation to stay for dinner and tea and were about to leave. Qiao Chao immediately went up to each of them and handed them a red envelope, "Thank you, sirs. You've worked so hard. This is just a small token of my appreciation for your tea."
The four soldiers touched the red seal and felt the bulge. They suddenly smiled kindly and said, "It's what we should do. We'll leave first."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your help."
When the door of Qiao's house was opened, the people outside were puzzled to see Qiao Chao and the others talking and laughing with the officers and soldiers.
"Didn't they say Zhen was in trouble? Why doesn't it look like that?"
"It looks like a good thing, doesn't it? Doesn't it look like a crime?"
"I don't know who said that she had committed a crime. Isn't this Zhen Shi doing well? I heard that this Zhen Shi didn't seem to go out recently."
After the soldiers left, they all started asking, "Dashan, why did these soldiers come to your house?"
Before Qiao Dashan could say anything, the village chief Qiao Feng said, "What does this have to do with you? What are you doing gathering here? Go home quickly."
"Village Chief, let's just ask."
Qiao Chao: "We ran into human traffickers when we went to the county before, and my little Ah Chu was almost taken away. The adults came here to inquire about the situation."
"What? Human traffickers!" Everyone's attention was diverted.
"Oh my god, luckily the child wasn't taken away. You can't take a child out on the street all the time. I remember someone's child was taken away from the street and disappeared."
"Isn't there one in the next village?"
"Oh, your little Achu is so lucky." A maid said, holding Qiao Chen's hand.
Qiao Chen was also still frightened. She was still a little scared when she thought about it now. "My heart was pounding at that time. Fortunately, I'm fine."
On the other side, Mrs. Zhang didn't get the result she wanted, and muttered, "Why wasn't the child taken away?"
Zhen's sharp ears immediately looked over. When Mrs. Zhang raised her head, she saw Zhen Yue's cold and gloomy eyes. She shuddered and took a few steps back. "I was just talking casually. I'm leaving first." As she said that, she twisted her hips and left.
Seeing that there was no more excitement, everyone left one by one after a while, and the Qiao family closed the door.
Qian immediately came to Zhen Yue and asked, "Sister-in-law, can you open the box and take a look?"
Others were also very curious. Zhen Yue did not keep it to herself, so she opened it as soon as she returned to the room. "Wow! Ah! Ugh!" Qian wanted to scream when she saw the golden light inside the box, but Qiao Er quickly covered her mouth and said, "Be quiet."
They waited until Qian nodded before letting go of her mouth. The others were also shocked to find that there were actually a few gold leaves and a few silver ingots inside.
Zhen Yue counted the thirty taels of silver. The gold leaves were probably worth dozens of taels. This money was a reward for Zhen Yue, so it was only for Zhen Yue. However, Zhen Yue still took out ten taels and handed them to Qiao Chenshi, "Mom, go buy some delicious food today."
Mrs. Qiao Chen took the heavy silver and said, "Okay, okay, let's celebrate." She didn't expect that the eldest daughter-in-law not only saved the eldest grandson, but also received a reward from the nobleman?
The whole family was very happy, but Zhen Yue still warned them not to let anyone outside know. Qian covered her mouth and said she would never reveal a single word.
This time when she went to the market, in addition to buying delicious food, Qiao Chen also bought piglets and chickens. She didn't see any good ones the last time she went out, so she didn't buy any.
The weather has been much better recently, and the vegetables in the vegetable garden behind the house are growing very lushly. The family can't finish eating them all, so Zhen Yue asked Qiao Er and Qian to prepare a batch of vegetables and go to the Song family tomorrow. After all, the New Year is over, and it's time to go and see them.
"By the way, you have a good relationship with the servant from the Song Mansion, right? When you go there this time, remember to bring him some food or give him a few coins." Zhen Yue instructed Qiao Er and Qian Shi.
Qiao Er was a little nervous, "Why not let big brother go with us." He was still a little scared. Before, it was big brother who talked to Tie Sheng brothers, and he always stood aside.
Zhen Yue looked at Qian, "It's okay, don't you still have your wife? If you succeed this time, you can get more money."
Qian immediately said confidently: "Sister-in-law, leave it to me. I will urge Qiao Er to get the job done." For the sake of money, she had to fight for it.
"Yes. You can do it. I believe in your second brother and sister-in-law." Zhen Yue encouraged.
Qian was even more confident when she heard this, "Don't worry, sister-in-law! Leave everything to me."
In the middle of the night, everyone in the family got up except Zhen Yue and a few children. They picked all the vegetables behind the house, washed them and put them in the backpack. It was very cold that night, but after working for a while, they didn't feel cold anymore.
In order to make money, everyone can endure this hardship.
After preparing the dishes and putting them on the donkey cart, Qiao Er and Qian left. Qiao Er drove the donkey cart and said, "Madam, please sit down and have a rest. I will call you when we get there."
"Ok."
After Qiao Er and the others left, the rest of the people went back to their rooms to rest. Because the others had to get up early in the morning to work, Zhen Yue made breakfast, as the others also needed to rest.
