Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 253 The Man Next to Shi Murou
The soldiers cursed, were filled with indignation, and spat on the ground.
"He's so good at flattering us. He started out as an ordinary soldier like us, and now he's a lieutenant general. He's even trying to get General Guan to take up the post here. If it weren't for that kind of relationship, and if General Guan didn't love his daughter, would he be willing to come here?"
"Perhaps General Guan is also resentful."
The soldiers walked away in a rage. Qiao Jianer asked, "Grandma, where are the troops stationed near us?"
"This is what you are talking about." Old Mrs. Qiao stopped, turned around and pointed in a direction.
"Go down that mountain path and walk five miles, and you'll find one of the military outposts south of Daze State. It's called the Guanning Iron Cavalry Outpost. I heard there are 10,000 people there."
"These military garrisons are different from the county government. Apart from fighting wars and guarding against harassment from neighboring countries, they don't care about the affairs of ordinary people."
Qiao Jianer looked in that direction and saw a small, not very clear path hidden in the mountains. It could not be seen unless you looked carefully.
She thought of the letter.
On August 21st, the Grain Inspection Office will send people down to work with the local county government and the stationed troops to collect taxes and grain.
There is a ready-made base near Datian Village.
The town was crowded and bustling because there were so many things to buy, so Old Mrs. Qiao assigned tasks to everyone, and each person had to buy one or two designated items.
Qiao Jianer was responsible for buying two pairs of hens and roosters. She knew what Old Mrs. Qiao meant and she didn't have to pay for it herself.
I found an alley where no one could see me, took out two big roosters and two big hens from the space, tied their claws symbolically, and put them in a backpack.
"Gugu, be good and don't run around."
Four chickens squatted in the basket, not saying a word, just turning their heads to look around.
Qiao Jian'er was not in a hurry to report to Old Lady Qiao. She looked around to see if there was anything delicious on the street and bought some.
Sugar-roasted chestnuts, white sugar steamed cakes, and glutinous rice balls were all brought home to eat, and two strings of candied haws were also bought for Qiao Zhizhi.
"I want this one, it's the biggest. Oh, any of these are fine, I want them all." A familiar voice sounded in my ears.
Qiao Jianer turned around and saw Shi Murou, but she didn't recognize her for a moment.
She has lost more than ten pounds and looks like this. She is no longer fat but looks more balanced.
Because she lost a lot of weight, her bloated facial features became delicate, and with the proper use of rouge and powder, she looked 50% to 60% better than before.
The clothes he was wearing were also very decent.
Qiao Jianer was a little surprised that Shi Murou had such a transformation.
Next to her was a tall man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, half a head taller than Shen Liang. He had a dignified appearance and a dignified look, but there was tenderness in his eyes.
"You can eat it, one or two strings a day, but don't eat too much sugar. It's bad for your teeth and your body."
As the man spoke, he asked the vendor to take down two strings of candied haws.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, but after I finish this, I'm going to eat some kebabs."
"Ah."
The interaction between them fully demonstrated the man's doting.
Seeing that Shi Murou finally found her true love, Qiao Jian'er was happy for her. She didn't intend to disturb her and wanted to leave silently.
But Mu Rou saw her, walked up quickly and grabbed her.
"Little girl, huh, you clearly saw me, but you didn't even say hello and just wanted to leave. You really don't care about the relationship we had before."
Shi Murou's tone was indeed mixed with some grievance.
Qiao Jian'er's heart softened, and she glanced at the man teasingly: "Sister Shi, wasn't I just afraid of disturbing you?"
"What's the point of bothering me? With him by my side, you can't talk to me? That doesn't make any sense."
Shi Murou continued, "You don't know, I went to your village twice to look for you, but you weren't home. You said you went to Yongguan County. You've become such a busy person at such a young age."
Qiao Jian'er felt guilty. She didn't expect Shi Murou to care about her so much.
She thought that the Shen Liang incident was over and they didn't need to have any contact in the future.
She couldn't help but start to examine her acquaintance with Shi Murou.
Was she really a little cruel to Shi Murou?
"Sister Shi, I was wrong. To express my apology, how about I treat you to some refreshments?"
Qiao Jianer also placed her hand on the back of Shi Murou's hand.
"That's more like it." Shi Murou looked at the man beside her.
"Chu Zhuo, this is my good friend, Qiao Jianer. You have no idea how amazing she is. She saved my life."
"Wait a minute, I'll tell you in detail how she saved me, and you'll admire her too."
Chu Zhuo nodded to Qiao Jianer.
Shi Murou said to Qiao Jianer again: "Jianer, his name is Chu Zhuo, and he is my fiancé."
Qiao Jianer was a little surprised: "You are engaged?"
"Yes, it was just decided half a month ago. Chu Zhuo is really good to me."
Shi Murou said with some emotion that she had always given to Shen Liang in the past, but Shen Liang only knew how to talk and coax her with sweet words. But Chu Zhuo was different, he treated her well with actions and cared about her personally.
And Chu Zhuo wouldn't say those sweet words.
It was only after meeting Chu Zhuo that she realized what good is truly good.
After entering the teahouse, Qiao Lianer ordered a pot of Biluochun tea and a few plates of dim sum.
Shi Murou's eating habits have also changed. She no longer wants to stuff food into her mouth like before.
Taking a sip of tea and taking a bite of dessert is quite like the etiquette of a rich lady.
Qiao Jianer was stunned.
She almost couldn't recognize Shi Murou.
But Shi Murou's enthusiasm and straightforward personality remained unchanged.
Looking at his features, there is a hint of intelligence, as if it was born out of the setbacks in life.
Qiao Jianer thought of a saying: "No one can become a useful person without hard work." Perhaps this was the training that God had intentionally arranged for Shi Murou.
Shi Murou wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and started talking about that incident.
She still clearly remembers the twists and turns involved.
Chu Zhuo also looked at Qiao Jianer in surprise. The little girl looked about eight years old, with two flower-buds on her hair, looking exactly like a child.
I didn't expect that he was so smart and clever.
Shi Murou only told him that she had been hurt by a scumbag before, and now the scumbag is in a miserable situation.
Little did he know that there were so many calculations hidden in this, and it almost ruined her life.
Fortunately, this little girl had a clever plan and pulled Shi Murou back from the edge of the cliff.
Otherwise, that family would be like a leech, gnawing at the Shi family, eating her up completely and then cruelly abandoning her.
Chu Zhuo developed a sincere admiration for Qiao Jianer.
"Miss Qiao, I never thought you were so capable at such a young age. You saved Rou'er, and that was the same as saving me. Rou'er and I will both remember your kindness."
Is it equivalent to saving him? Qiao Jianer didn't quite understand what he meant.
