A domineering country girl flirts with her son, and Commander Huo can't resist.

"I see." Jiang Yushun looked at Qiao An with a hint of sympathy. "She's a pitiful person too."

"That's all in the past. Look at me now, everything's fine, isn't it? I have a job and I can still eat my fill." Joan grinned foolishly.

Back at the police station, Qiao An acted as if nothing had happened, taking the groceries she had bought to the kitchen to help Qin Feng.

The police officers who came to the restaurant at noon thought they would receive the same treatment as yesterday, but after taking a bite of the fennel and pork dumplings with a meaty smell, their expressions turned bitter.

These are all good ingredients, so why do they taste different when Qin Feng makes them?

Although Jiang Yushun also thought the dumplings were unpalatable, he was in a good mood that day and didn't care about anything else.

Back at the station, they conducted a surprise interrogation.

Faced with the stolen goods found in his home and the wallet found behind the trash can, Haozi finally gave up.

The major problem that had been troubling Jiang Yushun was easily solved.

I just reported the news of the case being solved to Minister Sun.

Minister Sun praised him for his efficiency and told him to keep up the good work and strive to be selected as an advanced unit in the Security Department next year.

Jiang Yushun's gaze fell on Qiao An.

Ultimately, we have to thank Qiao An. If it weren't for her, this case probably wouldn't have been solved.

That rat was probably beaten into submission by Qiao An, which is why he confessed everything.

After finishing her work in the cafeteria in the afternoon, Qiao An was chatting with Qin Feng.

Someone came to call Qiao An, saying that Jiang Yushun was looking for her.

Qiao An immediately felt reassured.

Upon arriving at the office, before she could even speak, Jiang Yushun asked her to sit down and poured her a cup of tea.

"Xiao Qiao, you've done a great job for our department on your second day at work. I really have to thank you."

"Tell me, what kind of reward do you want? Money? A certificate? Or a raise?"

Qiao An smiled and shook her head. "Chief Jiang, I don't catch thieves for rewards; I just want to improve."

"If you really want to reward me, how about buying the institute a tricycle? That way, it will be easier for me to go out and buy goods for the institute, and I can buy more."

Look at this young comrade, still thinking about the police station at a time like this.

Jiang Yushun found Qiao An more and more pleasing to the eye.

He slammed his hand on the table. "Alright, I'll approve the request. Go to Director He and ask her to buy it for you."

"Chief Jiang, um... I know someone who specializes in reselling bicycles and modifying tricycles. They're thirty yuan cheaper than if we bought them ourselves. Let's spend our money wisely."

"If you trust me, I'll use my connections. With 100 yuan, I can scrape together enough money to build a tricycle."

Saving thirty yuan is certainly a good thing, and Jiang Yushun was overjoyed.

"Okay, that's great."

"I have a small request. Could you let me ride my tricycle to and from get off work in the future? I'll cover the maintenance costs and make sure it stays in good condition."

"It's nothing, you can ride the tricycle as you please." Jiang Yushun waved his hand dismissively.

"Thank you, Chief Jiang!"

Joan stood up and bowed, his gaze falling on the portrait of the great man on his desk.

When He Hua learned that Qiao An had made a contribution, he was genuinely happy for her.

Hearing that she had asked for a tricycle and was even going to use her connections to save the office 30 yuan, he felt even more that Qiao An was a good comrade.

Without saying a word, He Hua gave Qiao An a bicycle ticket and 100 yuan in cash, telling her to buy a tricycle.

It seems the police station is really rich; they can buy a bicycle for 100 yuan without even blinking an eye.

Qiao An hired a donkey cart to go back to the village today; if she walked, she wouldn't get home before dark.

Huo Chen and Huo Ning were playing in the yard when they saw Qiao An enter. Huo Ning rushed over to her.

He nestled obediently beside her.

Qiao An kissed her, then pinched Huo Chen's cheek before heading to the kitchen.

She reached out and pulled an enema from the rope, then froze.

If she remembered correctly, there should have been five sausages, a piece of pork belly, and two pieces of cured pork on the roof beam.

But now there's one less enema.

"A-Ning, Huo Chen, come here."

The two children ran into the kitchen.

Joanne bent down and asked, "What did you two have for lunch?"

"I ate the food my mother cooked," Huo Ning replied.

"Did you eat anything else?"

"no."

"Didn't you eat enema?" Joan asked again.

Huo Ning shook his head. "Neither my brother nor I can reach it."

Joan then realized that the two of them were still little kids, and there was no ladder in the house, so how could they have gotten the enema hanging on the roof beam?

But she was absolutely not mistaken; there were five sticks in the morning.

"Strange, why is one of those enema sausages missing?"

Huo Chen seemed to understand something. "Today, Wang Dazhuang from the front yard brought Erzhuang and Sanzhuang to our house."

"What are they doing here?"

"Mom, Dazhuang is playing hide-and-seek with us! My brother and I are hiding behind the woodpile, but they're so clumsy, they can't find us."

Huo Ning smiled so hard his eyes narrowed into two crescent moons.

"I see," Qiao An realized.

"Really? Then it seems our Aning and Huo Chen are the smartest." Qiao An ruffled Huo Ning's hair.

"Let's go out and have some fun, we'll eat later."

Joan ignored the missing enema.

After preparing dinner, I went to the main room, where Huo Ning and Huo Chen were already sitting obediently on stools.

During the meal, Huo Chen kept looking at Qiao An, saying, "Um... if Brother Dazhuang comes again tomorrow, I won't let them in."

"No, no, you can play with them as usual, it's fine."

Qiao An glanced at Huo Chen. This little guy is really smart; he figured out so quickly that a thief had broken into the house.

"Play the game the way you always have."

"But what if something goes missing from the house?"

Huo Chen was very worried. The meat in the kitchen was becoming increasingly scarce, and he couldn't let it benefit outsiders.

"Don't worry about that, Mom won't skimp on your food."

Sigh, this woman is so stubborn, she won't listen to any advice.

She only started to panic when all the meat in her house had been stolen.

Huo Chen was somewhat unhappy, and his expression was fierce as he ate the meat.

Qiao An has plenty of meat and sausages in her space. Even if she finishes them, she can ask Mo Yuxuan to buy more for her.

She definitely wants to catch the thief, but not now.

In the backyard of the Wang family, the main gate of the house was tightly closed.

Even the windows were tightly closed.

Seven people sat around a log table in the room, their eyes wide open like copper bells.

Wang Dazhuang, drooling, reached out and picked up a piece of sausage from the plate, sliced ​​as thin as paper, and put it in his mouth.

"Mmm! So delicious! So fragrant!"

"You little rascal, you're the biggest glutton." Shi Ahua slapped his hand in annoyance.

"Mom, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to eat sausages," Wang Dazhuang protested.

Grandma Wang hugged Wang Dazhuang, saying, "My eldest grandson is the best!"

Besides a plate of sausage, the only other items on the table were vegetable chunks and radish soup.

But because of the sausage flavor, even the vegetable dumplings seemed to taste much better.

"Grandma, tomorrow I'll take Erzhuang and Sanzhuang to play with those two silly kids again. I saw them; there's pork and cured meat on their roof beams."

Shi Ahua disagreed, "Do you think Qiao An is stupid? She wouldn't know if something was missing from the house!"

Wang Lei said while stuffing sausage into his mouth, "So what if she knows? Does she have any evidence?"

"Besides, even if she comes looking for us, we'll deny it to the death. What can she do about it?"

"That's called suffering in silence. Who told her to have so much good stuff at home? Meat and eggs every day, why should she get any?"

"We're all from the same village, yet they don't even know how to help each other out. They have no conscience."

After Wang Lei finished speaking, Shi Ahua didn't say anything more.

It turns out that Qiao An lived in the Huo family. There were many people in the Huo family, so they didn't dare to do anything.

Now she has moved out with her two children.

A woman with two children, even if she suffers injustice, there's nothing she can do.

That's how it is in the village; if there's no man in the family, they'll be bullied.
