Rebirth of a Little Cannon Fodder

"Ningning, do you want to marry Li Bin?" Qiao Chuchu asked the anxious Ma Ning softly.

"I do... I do!" Ma Ning answered in a low voice with a red face in response to Qiao Chuchu's sudden question.

"Then don't worry about accepting it. No matter what, the fact that Li's parents can prepare such an expensive gift for you before even meeting you shows that they still value you."

Although I haven't met Li's parents yet, I think through Li Bin that they should be a very open-minded pair of parents, otherwise Li Bin wouldn't be so sunny.

Qiao Chuchu was not sure whether Li Bin had told Ma Ning about his family background, so Qiao Chuchu could only comfort Ma Ning indirectly.

You have to know that Li Bin's family lives in a military compound and Li's father holds a high position. The other elders in the Li family are also powerful people. Under such circumstances, Li Bin did not grow up astray, which should be due to the family atmosphere. Therefore, Qiao Chuchu still approves of Li Bin being with her best friend.

"Really? Chuchu, then do you think I should prepare some return gifts? But we don't have anything here that can be used as a return gift."

"Return the gift! Why don't we go visit Lin Zhiqing when we have time?"

"Lin Zhiqing?" Ma Ning had also heard about Lin Zhiqing selling things in the brigade during this period, but she didn't need anything so she never patronized Lin Zhiqing's store.

"Ningning, look, this is what I just bought from Lin Zhiqing." As he spoke, he took out the cowhide gloves he had just bought from Lin Xue.

Ma Ning looked at the gloves and thought they were good. "But this isn't really suitable as a gift for Auntie! It would be a good gift for Uncle Li."

"How about we go take a look when we have time? I went to see Lin Zhiqing today and he has a lot of stuff. You can ask Li Bin's mother what she likes and we can choose something. Lin Zhiqing also said today that if she doesn't have it, he can still get it if she gives him a few days."

"That's great. I'll ask Li Bin tonight and then you can accompany me to Lin Zhiqing to help me choose."

"Okay, I'll go with you then."

With Qiao Chuchu's guidance, Ma Ning was no longer troubled.

The two of them went to help in the kitchen.

"Chu Chu, I'm here. I just went up the mountain and shot a pheasant. Let's eat it tonight! I also got some chestnuts."

Ji Shaowen opened the door as if he was returning to his own home and walked in with the things in his hands.

"Brother Shaowen, let me help you get it!" Seeing Ji Shaowen coming in, Li Bin hurriedly took the things from Ji Shaowen's hand.

"You said your injury had just healed and you had just come back from a few days of driving, so why did you go up the mountain to hunt? Don't you care about your own body anymore?" Qiao Chuchu scolded Ji Shaowen when she saw him coming in with the prey.

Ji Shaowen was not annoyed when listening to Qiao Chuchu's complaints. He smiled and said that she had said before that chicken stewed with chestnuts was the best. He happened to have chestnuts, so he went up the mountain to hunt a pheasant and prepared to cook it in the evening.

Qiao Chuchu also knew that Ji Shaowen went up the mountain to hunt because he took her words to heart, so she did not blame him, but felt a little sorry for him after all, he had been injured before.

"Okay, you and Ma Zhiqing go and have a rest. Xiao Binzi and I will take care of the things. You can come over to cook when the time comes." As he said this, he pushed Qiao Chuchu back to the bedroom.

"Chu Chu, do you have something to tell me?" As soon as Qiao Chuchu entered the bedroom, she heard Ma Ning's faint voice.

"Ah! What did you say?" Qiao Chuchu was a little confused for a moment, then she realized that Ma Ning was referring to her relationship with Ji Shaowen, "Is it...just what you think!"

"What is it? What do I think it is?" Ma Ning said with an attitude of getting to the bottom of things.

This made Qiao Chuchu speechless. It was clearly she who forced Ma Ning to interrogate her before, but now it became Ma Ning who interrogated her. She really wanted to leave a way out for them to meet again in the future!

In fact, when Ma Ning learned that Qiao Chuchu assisted Ji Shaowen in completing the task, she felt that there must be something going on between the two. After all, why was Qiao Chuchu the one to assist a single man and woman? In addition, during the autumn harvest, Ji Shaowen was always around Qiao Chuchu, helping her with work and giving them extra meals under the pretext of eating together.

The reason why she was interrogating Qiao Chuchu now was also to tease herself and Li Bin before taking revenge.

"Okay, are you holding a grudge against me for asking you about your relationship with Li Zhiqing? It's over, it's over. My Ningning has changed. It must be that Li Bin who corrupted my Ningning." So the two of them started fighting in the house.

"Brother Shaowen, you are with Qiao Zhiqing." Li Bin knew from the beginning that Ji Shaowen liked Qiao Chuchu, but he thought he had won the beauty, but he didn't expect that Brother Shaowen was also very fast.

Ji Shaowen narrowed his eyes at Li Bin, smiled, and said nothing.

"Uh...Okay, okay, I was wrong, Shao Wen. I shouldn't have teased you."

"Have you packed everything?" Qiao Chuchu calculated the time and came to the kitchen to prepare cooking. There was no way she was the best cook among the four of them. Besides, she had been eating train meals for so many days, and she didn't want to upset her stomach anymore. She had to have a good meal this time.

"Okay, okay, why don't I do it!" Seeing Qiao Chuchu come in, Ji Shaowen hurried forward and said.

"No need, let me do it!"

"Then I'll help you." Seeing that Qiao Chuchu insisted on doing it herself, Ji Shaowen didn't stop her. After all, his cooking skills were definitely not as good as Qiao Chuchu's, so he might as well help in the kitchen.

"Xiao Binzi, go and accompany your Ma Zhiqing." The implication is that you should stop being a third wheel here.

When Li Bin heard what Ji Shaowen said, he immediately left the kitchen and went to find his girlfriend.

"Li Bin, I'm going to prepare some things for Auntie to send back. What do you think?"

Hearing Ma Ning say this, Li Bin knew that she had finally accepted the gift prepared by his mother. "It seems that Qiao Zhiqing's words are still effective. I tried to persuade you so much before, but you still didn't want to accept the gift prepared by my mother. You really listened to Qiao Zhiqing's words."

Hearing the sour tone in Li Bin's words, Ma Ning felt helpless. He was such an adult and still jealous of everyone.

"I can't help it! We haven't been together for long and Auntie has prepared such an expensive gift. What if we are no longer together in the future? Am I not thinking long-term?"

"Here we go again, why aren't we together anymore? We'll definitely grow old together."

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, but this is my first time receiving such an expensive gift, so I must be feeling a heavy burden! But I've let it go now. I've already made an agreement with Chuchu to have her accompany me to choose a gift, and I'll send it to Auntie once we've chosen it."

"Is that right? My mom will definitely be overjoyed when she receives the gift prepared by her daughter-in-law. You don't know that almost all the families with sons in her workplace are married. They talk about how wonderful their daughter-in-law is in front of my mom every day. My mom can't wait to get me married right away."

"You mean you want to get married because of your aunt? Seeing Li Bin's arrogant look," Ma Ning joked directly.
