Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 512: Soul-Returning Vine on Cypress Branch

"Grandma, in my heart, the Qiao family is the most important, just like in a man's heart. Everything is based on the interests of the family, and love between men and women is secondary. If I don't have such a broad mind and belief, I am not worthy of supporting the Qiao family."

"Okay, well said." Old man Qiao had been hiding at the door and eavesdropping. Upon hearing such inspiring words, he strode in. His face seemed to be covered with glow, and he looked ten years younger.

"Our Qiao family is so lucky to have such a daughter. With Jian'er supporting the Qiao family, the Qiao family will never fall. The ancestors and descendants of the Qiao family are all proud of Jian'er."

At the back window, a figure stopped for a long time, not intentionally eavesdropping. He had just seen her enter the room, so he went to pick a bouquet of flowers. Just as he was about to knock on the window to get her to open it, he put down the bouquet and left, leaving her confused.

It turned out that the grandparents and grandchildren were talking about her major life events.

If she doesn't marry, then doesn't that mean he has to marry? Pei Shijiu was a little distressed. Of course he was willing, but his parents would definitely not agree.

Pei Shijiu was feeling depressed. He picked flower petals and threw them on the ground as he walked. When he left Qiao's house, he was left with only a bunch of bare branches in his hands.

As the night deepened, the guests gradually dispersed.

Qiao Jian'er generously allowed them to take home the leftover durian, nuts, coconut and cantaloupe without charging a penny. In order to ensure that everyone had a share, she even opened a warehouse and let everyone choose as they pleased during the festive occasion of the wedding.

These usually expensive fruits and nuts could now be had for free, and they were the most delicious when they were free. Everyone enjoyed themselves taking them, and their impression of the county lady's generosity was further deepened.

"County Lady, I heard that everyone who came to your house for a drink yesterday received free coconuts and durians, including those who were not invited. Can you give us a little more discount today?" The next day, those nobles came to buy food and made a request as soon as they arrived.

"Sure, I'll give you a durian and two coconut waters for free, and I'll give you a 30% discount on the total price. How about that?"

Knowing that these delicacies could be used to win favors and socialize, Qiao Jianer became more generous.

Anyway, the goods in her space are inexhaustible.

Everyone is very happy. The total price is 30% off, so they will stock up as much as they can.

So, truckloads of durian, coconuts, etc. were transported away from Qiao's house, creating a spectacular sight early in the morning.

Qiao Jianer handed the matter over to housekeeper Chai and told people not to go to her room and disturb her.

When Old Mrs. Qiao heard this, she knew that Jian'er was going to do something, so she moved a stool and sat not far from Qiao Jian'er's room, watching carefully.

Qiao Jianer entered Lieutenant General He's living coordinates into the system, started the program, and in a blink of an eye, he arrived at his destination.

Lieutenant General He was lying on the bed. Behind the bed curtains, only a fat human outline could be seen. He was motionless, groaning from time to time, and looked very uncomfortable.

There was no one else in here, but through the window screen, you could see guards with swords standing outside.

Qiao Jianer walked lightly and used the poison detection system to check inside. Deputy General He had to see several doctors every day, who examined him in detail, but they couldn't find anything on his body.

She suspected that the problem occurred in the room and something must be affecting Lieutenant General He.

People kept passing by the door, and in order to avoid being discovered, Qiao Jianer put on an invisibility cloak.

This way, she could check the situation in the house without worry.

After checking the calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and incense powder inside, Qiao Lianer found nothing wrong. He then went to look at the potted plants on the windowsill and shelves.

There are asparagus fern, photinia, black tea, and cypress, especially the cypress, which is the most luxuriant. When the virtual detector passed by the cypress, an alarm sounded, and a voice prompted: Master, be careful, the soul-returning vine is poisonous. When its breath enters the body, it will react with the internal organs and inhibit their pulsating function. After inhalation for up to two hours, it will cause fatigue. Long-term inhalation will cause confusion and even life-threatening.

But Qiao Jianer looked around and didn't find any vines there.

"Where is the vine? Is there something wrong?" She wondered if the system had a brain seizure.

"Right before your eyes, Master. Right before your eyes, Master, you are blinded."

In front of Qiao Jianer was a cypress tree with dense branches and leaves like a canopy, and countless branches hung down, covering the roots.

She had a guess in her mind, so she turned over the cypress tree and saw that it was indeed filled with countless soul-returning vines, so dense that they almost completely wrapped around the trunk of the cypress tree.

But a closer look reveals that although the cypress tree looks lush, it is already showing signs of decay. The overlapping leaves are quietly losing water and becoming dry.

When one living organism is parasitized by another, its nutrients are robbed and its vitality is drained away, just like taking over another's body.

Moreover, parasites can be poisonous and deadly.

Qiao Jianer only felt goose bumps all over his body.

Lieutenant General He trusted Pang Da so much. If he knew that Pang Da had evil intentions and was plotting to harm him, one could not tell how he would feel.

Moreover, the Soul-Returning Vine is hidden so well that I'm afraid that Lieutenant General He will never know what took his life until his death.

Even Qiao Jianer discovered this trick with the help of the space detection system.

There were footsteps outside, and Qiao Jian'er subconsciously wanted to dodge, but suddenly remembered that she was wearing an invisible suit, so she stood quietly aside.

The visitor said a few words to the guard and the door opened.

Lieutenant Pang arrived, but there was another person in front of him. Judging from his clothes, he was quite famous. He was wearing the same uniform as Lieutenant General He, so he seemed to be a lieutenant general as well.

"Deputy General Chen, please." Lieutenant Pang made a gesture of invitation with a very respectful attitude.

Lieutenant Pang also brought two people with him, both lieutenants under Deputy General He, one surnamed Zhao and the other surnamed Qian.

They came together to visit the patient.

The moment he entered the house, Pangda's eyes glanced at the shelf against the wall and fell on the cypress tree.

A hint of pride flashed in his eyes. With this thing, Lieutenant General He was destined to die inexplicably.

The bed curtains were drawn, Lieutenant General He coughed twice, and was helped to lean against the headboard.

"You're here, Lieutenant General Chen. It's rare for you to come and see me."

There has always been a lukewarm relationship between Lieutenant General Chen and Lieutenant General He, and they are just nodding acquaintances.

So when he saw Vice General Chen coming, Vice General He was a little surprised and a little touched.

"Old He, you're in your prime, strong and healthy, yet you're lying down like this every day. You need to get well soon." Lieutenant General Chen said, "I think Lieutenant Pang must be working very hard training those soldiers for you every day."

"That's right. Lieutenant Pang trained a large force for a long time yesterday and was almost fainted from exhaustion. But we are not as skilled as him. We can only watch him suffer, and we can't bear it." Lieutenant Zhao said.

Lieutenant Qian added: "Many soldiers felt his position was menial and were unwilling to obey discipline."
