Chapter 8

Thinking back to when she traveled through time, Li Fengbei’s family relationships were simple, and Qiao Anle didn’t have a sarcastic mother-in-law or an overbearing brother and sister-in-law.

Even though there are three more cubs, they are all well-behaved, obedient and cute.

She thought her life would be simple and warm, but she didn’t expect that there was a group of excellent neighbors waiting for her.

Public nuisance in the compound?

Qiao Anle pondered these four words in his mind.

I wasn’t angry, but rather felt like laughing.

The original owner did do the things they said, but even Li Fengbei didn’t say a single harsh word to her. Is it the turn of these gossips to make irresponsible remarks?

She was jealous of these women.

Jealous that she could marry a good man like Li Fengbei.

Qiao Anle looked at the group of women not far away, and walked towards them without dodging or evading.

As she walked, she kicked the stones on the roadside, making some noise.

When the gossiping women heard the voice, they immediately turned their heads.

They never thought that the person they saw would be the real person Qiao Anle.

Qiao Anle not only did not pretend not to hear, but with a three-part sneer and seven-part ridicule on his face, he stared at them and walked towards them step by step.

A moment.

They actually felt a chill in the air, blowing towards them as Qiao Anle followed his footsteps.

It actually makes people feel creepy and a little scared.

But……

Isn’t Qiao Anle just a timid and useless young lady who doesn’t even dare to say a word in front of outsiders? !

When those women turned around, Qiao Anle also saw their appearance clearly.

She identified the identities of several people in the original owner’s memory.

Among these people, one is called Wang Guifang and the other is called Wang Erni. Because they both have the surname Wang, they are very close, like real sisters.

As for the other three, Qiao Anle couldn’t remember their names.

Especially Wang Guifang, who likes to stand out and is undoubtedly the leader of this group of people.

The person who scolded Qiao Anle the most harshly just now was Wang Guifang.

The original owner had a very deep memory of Wang Guifang.

Because on the first day Li Fengbei and Qiao Anle came to the village, Wang Guifang came with a bunch of things, saying that she was visiting.

He looked so friendly, as if he was a distant relative of Qiao Anle.

In fact, she was attracted by Li Fengbei’s status as battalion commander and wanted to use his connections to find a chance for her husband to get promoted.

In the end, Li Fengbei coaxed him out with a cold face.

But Wang Guifang still refused to give up, and always came to Qiao Anle secretly, fawning like a petty bourgeois.

The original owner and Wang Guifang were from completely different worlds and could not get along at all.

Over time, Wang Guifang was rejected many times and stopped coming.

I didn’t expect that…

Wang Guifang failed to curry favor with him, so she simply turned against him.

She probably said a lot of things like this today.

In the blink of an eye.

Qiao Anle walked up to the group of women and looked at their different, nervous and distorted expressions.

She curled her red lips and spoke with a sneer.

“My dear sisters-in-law, you are too concerned about my affairs. Are you idle and have nothing to do? Or are you full and have nothing to do? Why don’t you go to the fields to work and help the men harvest rice?”

“As for what you are talking about… Li Fengbei is willing to support me. He is willing to let me not work, he is willing to let me eat for free, he is happy with it, what is it for you to do?”

“What’s wrong with me eating a lot? I ate my own food, Li Fengbei’s food. I didn’t eat your steamed corn bread or your white flour buns. Is it your turn to make irresponsible remarks?”

“Oh, by the way, given your family’s situation, I’m afraid you can’t even afford white flour buns, right?”

Qiao Anle’s words were full of wisdom and her eyes were sharp.

His cold and arrogant eyes swept across the faces of those women one by one.

The more she spoke, the colder her words became, and even the last trace of smile on her lips disappeared.

“I’m just kindly reminding you today. If you ever hear me gossiping and slandering you again, don’t blame me for being rude!”

“besides!”

“You guys are not worthy of even mentioning Li Fengbei!”

Qiao Anle’s expression showed obvious anger when he mentioned Li Fengbei.

If these people were only talking about her, Qiao Anle wouldn’t be angry at all.

But Li Fengbei…

Why was this upright, gentle and considerate man slandered and defamed by these people?

Qiao Anle couldn’t swallow this.

I made a note of each of these women in the little notebook in my heart.

After Qiao Anle uttered the three words “Li Fengbei” in a heavy voice.

The group of women were completely frightened and silent.

Not only them, but even their men are under Li Fengbei’s control and cannot afford to offend Qiao Anle.

He could only shut up and swallow the loss, begging for mercy.

“We dare not, we dare not. We dare not talk about Captain Li anymore.”

“We were wrong. We were the ones who talked too much. Um… you… you shouldn’t take it to heart.”

Qiao An was happy to see that her goal had been achieved and stopped talking nonsense.

She walked right past them.

After Qiao Anle walked a few dozen meters away, the women who were trembling with fear finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted their chests and gasped.

“Oh my god, I’m so scared! I haven’t even been this nervous since I gave birth!”

“Isn’t it said that she doesn’t even dare to speak loudly and is very timid? How come she is so sharp-tongued and doesn’t allow anyone to interrupt her?”

“Stop talking, stop talking. What if someone hears it? If the men in our family are implicated, we’ll be finished!”

Just when everyone was afraid.

Only Wang Guifang had a ferocious expression and hatred in her eyes.

She spat viciously on the ground.

“Bah! Why are you putting on airs in front of us? Wait until Captain Li finds out about the shit she did! She’s just a fucking slut. Any man would definitely divorce her! You’ll have a hard time living like this!”

When everyone listened to Wang Guifang’s words, their eyes trembled, but they didn’t dare to ask anything.

…

On the way to the commune, Qiao Anle became the focus of people around her.

Those who knew her rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

Even those who didn’t know her had heard about her identity from others.

After coming to this small mountain village for a year, this was the first time they saw the legendary Captain Li’s wife at such a close distance.

What a…beauty!

Some even said, no wonder Captain Li wants to keep a mistress in his mansion!

With such a beautiful daughter-in-law, who would want her to suffer?

Qiao Anle walked forward calmly under the gaze of everyone.

I also observed this small mountain village inside and out.

The village is located in a mountain valley, isolated and backward.

Because there were sloping hillsides everywhere, there was not much arable land in the past, the soil quality was not good, and there was a lack of irrigation water, so droughts and famines occurred frequently, and people would starve to death in the village from time to time.

But now, the small mountain village is full of signs of development and construction.

During the year that Li Fengbei has been here.

A small dam was built in the mountain, solving the most important water source problem.

He led his troops and called on the villagers to reclaim wasteland together, turning the originally barren hillside into acres of terraced fields.

We also popularized scientific planting, gave them the best seeds, and taught them how to make rational use of land and how to use fertilizers.

Compared to a year ago, the small mountain village has undergone tremendous changes.

It is the summer harvest season now. The fields are full of golden rice ears. They are the first batch of rice that have matured since the development of the village.

Almost all the men were busy in the fields.

So when Qiao Anle arrived at the village commune, he saw an empty house with only a commune recorder left inside.

The recorder was a young man of about eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing black-framed glasses. He looked somewhat literary and a little silly.

He was the only one in the village who could write, so Li Fengbei assigned him the position of recorder.

The recorder watched Qiao Anle approach, and his eyes behind the mirror stared at the living beauty in front of him without blinking.

I was completely stunned.

“You…you…you…”

The recorder occasionally had to go to Li Fengbei’s house to report on the situation, so he had seen Qiao Anle, but he only saw her profile a few times and could not see clearly.

Now, when he looked at Qiao Anle, he felt a hint of familiarity, but more of amazement.

Qiao Anle didn’t say much.

She said directly, “Yes, it’s me. I’m Qiao Anle.”

“Sister-in-law…Sister-in-law! Why are you here!”

The recorder pushed his glasses that were about to fall off his nose and spoke hurriedly.

Qiao Anle asked, “My production relationship is under the village commune, right?”

The recorder immediately replied, “That’s right. But Captain Li said that you are in poor health and are sick, so you can’t do physical labor. So you only have a production relationship, but you don’t participate in production labor. Your work points are not counted, and you can’t get food coupons and oil coupons, let alone allowances.”

Get ill?

Qiao Anle never expected that such a tough and upright man like Li Fengbei would actually lie for her.

She was slightly distracted.

The recorder asked hesitantly while stealing a glance at Qiao Anle’s expression.

“Sister-in-law, what are you doing here today? As long as you ask, I will do my best! You are Captain Li’s wife, and Captain Li has done so much for our village, I——”

“Don’t be so nervous. Today, I just want to tell you that I’m cured and I want to join the commune labor.”

Qiao Anle interrupted the nervous recorder and said this with a smile.

By participating in commune labor, you can earn work points.

With work points, she could receive food coupons, oil coupons, and even cloth coupons and meat coupons every month.

In this era, money is useless, only banknotes are the most practical.

Li Fengbei was good to her, and she also wanted to be good to Li Fengbei. With the work points she earned, she could buy more food and raise the three cubs to be plump and healthy.

The most important thing is that the supplies in the Lingbao space can also be secretly mixed in without arousing Li Fengbei’s suspicion.

Qiao Anle had already thought about the “secret attack” in this matter.
