Chapter 11

There is a pottery jar in the space, which is used for eating alone.

Not only that, but there were also kitchen knives, salt and other things to make it easier for her to deal with the wild boar.

Fortunately, the original owner was strong enough to handle the little wild boar.

The internal organs were emptied and thrown into the space, and the fat and lean meat were separated. The fat was refined into a can of lard, and the lean meat was fried into shredded meat or made into meatball soup before being put into the black box of the copy space.

Shredded pork and meatballs are ready-to-eat foods, making them convenient for you to eat alone. As for the refined lard, you can add it to the lard can at home to add some meat to your children’s diet to nourish their bodies.

After finishing the job, she sold the remaining wild boars on the black market, making a small profit and getting a few more tickets. After collecting all the industrial tickets, she bought an iron pot and returned to Zhou’s house before dark.

When Zhou’s mother saw her, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she smelled the strong smell of blood on her body and her face froze. “Are you injured?”

Seeing Zhou’s mother was about to check, Qiao Yu held her back and said, “I’m fine, Mom. I killed some game and sold it. The bloody smell is from the game.”

Zhou’s mother gasped: “Wild boar?!”

“It’s okay, I’m fine, right?”

“Don’t go next time, Xiaoyu. If you need money or tickets, tell mom…”

“Okay.” He agreed, but it is more reassuring to earn money yourself by using other people’s tricks.

Mother Zhou persuaded her a few more times before saying, “Isn’t today a free day? I’ll go to a few households in the brigade to exchange some cloth coupons for you, buy you some cloth, and make you a few more sets of clothes…”

Qiao Yu listened calmly and responded, “Yes, I understand, mother.”

Zhou’s mother knew that she was tired, so she changed the subject and said, “Okay, go take a shower and go to bed.”

“Good.”

Qiao Yu returned to the room, glanced at Dawei’s sleeping posture, pulled back the quilt and got into bed.

After sleeping all night, she finally pulled up the wild boar meat that had fallen into the well and handed it to Zhou Dasao: “Sister-in-law, I found this on my way to the city. I’ll bring some meat to the family.”

Originally, Mrs. Zhou was dissatisfied with her mother-in-law for exchanging cloth coupons for her new sister-in-law at the brigade. But when she saw that she brought back real meat, with a lot of fat, Mrs. Zhou immediately changed her mind and greeted her with a smile, “Okay, I’ll make lard out of the fat for the children to eat, and I’ll stir-fry the lean meat.”

“It’s up to you to decide.”

Qiao Yu bought cloth before, but she and Dawei and Xiaoyong could only make one set of clothes. Now Zhou’s mother gave them cloth coupons, so they can make another set. As for the set they are wearing, they can cut it up and use it for other things.

Now that there was no shortage of food in the space, Qiao Yu went to the city, bought some cloth and brought it back to sew clothes, and he rarely went out.

The train tickets for her and her two children were brought by the director of the Public Security Bureau himself, and they were sleeper berths.

The departure time is five days later.

The Zhou family was not reserved with the Public Security Bureau chief. After all, everyone knew that he had a good relationship with Zhou Ze’an.

After Zhou’s mother found an excuse to leave, leaving room for the director and Qiao Yu to talk, the director said, “Comrade Qiao, the real boss of the Zhang family is your grandfather. The Zhang family’s previous attitude does not represent his. He is on his way now. For the sake of that person who came in person, I hope you will not hate your biological parents for what they did.”

Qiao Yu was a little surprised: “In person? To me?”

“Yes, Comrade Qiao.”

Qiao Yu calmed down and said, “Okay, I got it.” Finally, she asked about the Zhang family’s situation.

The director said cryptically, “That person holds an important position in the capital. Your biological father is a university professor, your mother is at home taking care of her husband and children, your eldest son is in the army, and your youngest son is doing academic research. As for Zhang Baoer… the female comrade you mistakenly took away, she just graduated from high school and is preparing to go to a technical secondary school.”

Qiao Yu felt extremely sarcastic.

The original owner lost her husband and was almost killed by her husband’s family. She also had to take on the responsibility of raising her late husband’s two children. But the pampered one is now preparing to go to technical secondary school?

“Yes, I understand.”

The director looked at Qiao Yu’s face and said, “Actually, Comrade Qiao, returning to the Zhang family is the best choice. With this person protecting you, your future will definitely be easier than marrying into the Zhou family.”

Qiao Yu smiled and replied, “Thank you for your advice, Director.”

Recognize the Zhang family?

Even if Grandpa Zhang is the boss, the original owner’s biological parents don’t welcome her, and she has two brothers she has never met…

Going back to the Zhang family is like walking on thin ice. It would be better for her to marry the incompetent Zhou Ze’an and be the master of her own household in the future, rather than relying on others for survival.

After seeing the director off, Qiao Yu began to prepare things for the army. In addition to making a few sets of clothes, he also prepared food and money.

Seeing that Zhou’s mother was packing a lot of things into the snakeskin bag, Qiao Yu stopped her and said, “Mom, we can buy more things when we get there. I have to hold Xiaoyong and Dawei along the way, so how can I spare my hands to carry so many things? The child has never had breast milk since he was born. I finally raised him up, and then there was a famine, and now he can’t even walk.”

When Zhou’s mother heard this, she sighed a few times and said, “The youngest son gets a subsidy every month, which includes milk powder coupons. I used to give them to other comrades. You should keep them for yourself and use them to nourish Xiaoyong slowly.”

“Yeah, okay.”

Mrs. Zhou’s two children were too old to drink milk powder, so they all ate malted milk to nourish their bodies. Zhou Ze’an would send back two cans of malted milk every month, one for his nephews and nieces, and one specifically for his mother.

When Mrs. Zhou heard what her mother said, she had no objection, especially after she knew that her new sister-in-law came from a truly extraordinary family.

Just as Mrs. Zhou had expected, before departure, Qiao Yu’s real grandfather came to the production team in a car, shocking the team members.

“Whose relative is this?”

“How come you don’t know yet? She’s the one the youngest son of the Zhou family just married. Her biological parents heard that she’s from the capital, so they came to recognize her as their relative.”

“Is this true? It’s hard to say who will marry into the Zhou family.”

…

Zhou’s mother had seen a lot of things because of her son’s military achievements. Even though she lived in the countryside, she had many officials in the city to look after her. But when facing Grandpa Zhang, she still couldn’t stretch her hands and feet and felt restrained.

Qiao Yu sent Zhou’s mother away, “Mom, I’ll entertain you here.”

Mother Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she went to the kitchen, she heard her eldest daughter-in-law whisper, “Mom, Qiao Yu’s family seems to be of high status. Is she still willing to marry my second brother? And those two kids, Dawei and Xiaoyong…”

“Just focus on your own business and mind your own business.” Zhou’s mother sneered.

Mrs. Zhou stopped gossiping and just buried her head in her work.

Main room.

Grandpa Zhang brought a lot of rare things, such as malted milk powder, strong flour and white rice, as well as some bacon, sausage, cloth and so on…

There was nothing in the space, so Qiao Yu took a closer look, but his emotions didn’t fluctuate much, so he retracted his gaze.

When they were the only two people left in the hall, Qiao Yu was the first to break the silence, “Mr. Zhang, what is the purpose of your visit this time?”

Zhou Ze’an had been on the battlefield, and he had a fierce aura that was hard to conceal, and he looked like someone who was not easy to mess with. In other words, he was like a big wolfdog that was not easy to mess with.

The person in front of me also has a hint of murderous aura, but his temples are gray and his face is covered with scars. After years of settling down, he has restrained that murderous aura very well. He has the majesty of a superior, but also the kindness and caution towards the younger generation.

This is also the reason why Qiao Yu didn’t say anything serious.

After all, what the other party brought, and their current performance, are enough to show their attitude.
