Chapter 249 If this kind of person isn't executed, are we just going to let him live through Fe
back......
It's unclear whether anyone will come. After all, she's an unpredictable factor!
Qiao Manman was studying very seriously, and before she knew it, it was evening.
When Lu Yuan came back and saw that she hadn't cooked, he thought she was angry.
He awkwardly apologized: "Honey, I'm sorry, I..."
Qiao Manman snapped out of her daze: "Oh, is it that late?"
I drew back the curtains and looked outside. The sky was dark, with lights in the distance.
Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and went to the bedroom to get the groceries. Qiao Manman stopped him: "It's getting late, let's eat what's ready!"
It saves me the time and effort of cooking, and prevents me from getting hungry in the middle of the night.
Lu Yuan had no objections; none of the food his wife conjured up was bad. In fact, many of them were things he had never seen before, things that only existed in the Immortal Realm.
"What do you want to eat?" Qiao Manman asked, but then immediately pulled out her plate. There was braised Wuchang fish with scallions, garlic prawns, stir-fried lotus root slices, and lettuce and egg soup.
Remembering something, Qiao Manman took out a large crab: "I was planning to give you some after you came back from your mission. But I got injured and forgot. This is a Chengcheng crab, I got it from Suzhou!"
Lu Yuan had eaten crabs a few times thanks to the old man's connections. But he had never seen one this big before; it was practically a monster!
Qiao Manman didn't explain, but pried open the crab shell and took out the crab meat for him.
Lu Yuan took a bite and found it exceptionally sweet and delicious, much better than he remembered.
"Wife, you eat too!"
Qiao Manman had plenty of meat, so she only tried one crab claw before stopping.
While drinking his lettuce soup, he asked, "What's the deal with that woman? Why did she say she was your fiancée?"
Lu Yuan frowned: "The leadership didn't say anything, but they've secretly placed her under guard. They probably suspect she's a spy, here to cause trouble!"
Qiao Manman hummed in agreement, not inquiring further. She planned to see what the team's attitude was and whether they could accept so-called outcasts.
The next day, Meng Peiyu came to visit, looking worried, and comforted Qiao Manman: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid. We all know that woman has nothing to do with Battalion Commander Lu!"
Qiao Manman saw schadenfreude in her eyes and retorted, "I don't know what she was thinking, actually saying that Commander Chen and I are a couple! How is that possible? I've barely even spoken a few words to Commander Chen!"
"Sister-in-law, we must stand together against this enemy! We can't let her ruin the reputation of our two families!"
Meng Peiyu suddenly felt awkward, unsure whether to agree or deny it. She found Qiao Manman difficult to deal with, as she hadn't cried and complained to her as she had expected.
Did she miscalculate again?
Suddenly losing interest in chatting with Qiao Manman, Meng Peiyu stood up and said, "Since you're alright, I'll head back. Let's talk another day!"
"No, sister-in-law, sit a while longer, let's talk about how to deal with that lunatic!"
I don't know which scoundrel passed on the information to her, managing to find out everything about the family compound. Shouldn't this kind of person be executed? Are they just there to celebrate the second day of the second lunar month?
Meng Peiyu paused for a moment, then left without looking back.
Once she could no longer see her, Qiao Manman let out a silvery laugh, closed the door, and her expression turned cold.
Several days passed, and Qiao Manman heard no more news about Qian Xiaoni, as if that person had never appeared at all.
What Qiao Manman didn't know was that after learning about Qian Xiaoni's strange behavior, Brigade Commander He deliberately kept quiet and forbade everyone from talking about her.
Qian Xiaoni also learned from her conversation with Brigade Commander He that Xu Xiaotian was not dead and had even made contributions in the previous operation.
"Impossible, how could this be!" Fear rose in Qian Xiaoni's heart: "The dream was so real!"
She was so real that she could see everyone's face clearly and remember Lu Yuan's path to promotion.
She was certain that was her past life, but as long as Xu Xiaotian was alive, she would be Xu Xiaotian's wife. Did this mean she could never become the leader's wife in this life?
Ah, no! All this sacrifice was for finding my lover. What is Xu Xiaotian anyway? Just a short-lived ghost. Why should he have this extraordinary woman blessed with good fortune?
"I can dream about Lu Yuan and Chen Junyan. There are so many women in the family compound, how could I be wrong!"
Yes, after investigation, it was found that Qian Xiaoni did not have any contact with the soldiers in the team or the family members in the residential compound.
Her social circle is very simple, and her daily life revolves around her small circle.
In fact, she changed suddenly before the new year. Everything seemed to corroborate her absurd claim.
However, she could not become a spirit after the founding of the People's Republic of China, so Brigade Commander He placed her under house arrest, partly to prevent her from causing trouble, being captured by the enemy, and extracting information about the unit.
Secondly, they were afraid she would be caught by the radicals and used as a scapegoat to scare the monkeys.
Of course, Commander He also wanted to get information about the future from her so he could make plans in advance and avoid losses.
That night, when Lu Yuan brought up the matter, Qiao Manman asked, "What about Xu Xiaotian? What's the situation? Did he hold a grudge against you after learning about his wife's condition?"
Lu Yuan sighed: "He was really hit hard."
Qian Xiaoni said that during the previous mission, she was attacked from both sides, and it was Xu Xiaotian and other comrades who risked their lives to cover her, allowing her to fight her way out.
Lu Yuan had no doubts. He thought to himself that if it weren't for his wife's magical abilities, he and his comrades might have really perished on that mission.
He was grateful that he had married Qiao Manman, which allowed him to fight his way out for his brothers and repay the life-saving grace from his previous life.
"Although Xiaotian was disappointed, he could understand. If he really sacrificed himself, his family would not let his wife and daughter go. It's a way out if they can entrust their lives to me."
"But the key thing is, he survived!" The female lead's actions were truly despicable; she needlessly ruined a family.
Lu Yuan remained silent, thinking that the real difficulties were yet to come. A normal person, knowing their husband is alive, would at least calm down and try to live a normal life, if not celebrate with drums and gongs.
But Qian Xiaoni was different. She cried and shouted that she wanted to divorce Xu Xiaotian, and said that she knew what the future held and that she would not marry anyone but Lu Yuan.
Some were tempted, but most chose to stick to their principles.
"How can you let Battalion Commander Lu divorce his wife and remarry just because of a few words she said?"
Moreover, Qiao Manman has performed so well, why should she be divorced?
Qian Xiaoni was disappointed after being rejected. Her eyes lit up, and she asked Lu Yuan to be her bodyguard. She said that as long as he protected her, she could provide intelligence to the team.
"Pah, do I need her information? She really thinks she's something special!" Lu Yuan rarely showed his emotions, cursing until his face was red and his neck was thick.
Qiao Manman chuckled and tugged at his cheek: "Don't be angry, just think of it as a vacation for yourself."
With her and Meng Peiyu around, the trajectory is already different from her previous life, and Qian Xiaoni's experience may not necessarily be useful.
If we could use her words to set things right and start reform and opening up ahead of time, that would be a great achievement.
If not, they will eventually be discarded by the authorities like worn-out shoes, and then they will truly lose both their people and their wealth.
Lu Yuan hummed in agreement and decided to carry out the mission with Xu Xiaotian.
Qiao Manman asked, "What about her son? He can't still be in the village, can he?"
