On the way back, Jiang Youtao and Gu Nianwei took turns praising Zhong Qianxi, while Xu Manqiu looked at Zhong Qianxi with sparkling eyes.
The constant chatter and the occasional admiring looks made Zhong Qianxi so confused that she followed the four of them home for dinner in a daze.
Fu Shaohua lagged behind them by a few steps, feeling somewhat melancholy as she listened to Jiang Youtao's almost never-repeating nice words.
He didn't know if he would be able to hear Jiang Youtao praise him so sincerely in his life.
The food was being heated on the grate of the big pot. Zhong Qianxi's portion was added to the pot, and Jiang Youtao went to the big vat outside and took out a few large cornmeal buns that Gu Nianwei had smuggled out of the space.
Just put a little fire in the pot, which is enough to steam the buns thoroughly.
Jiang Youtao soaked the dried eggplant and green pepper in hot water, set up a tripod on the fire pit, put a small pot on it, heated the oil, put the garlic slices in and stir-fried them, then put in the eggplant and green pepper, covered the lid and simmered for a while, and the dish was ready.
Gu Nianwei cut the mutton that Fu Shaohua had sent earlier, made a mutton soup, and added seasonings such as scallion leaves, dried coriander, and pepper.
Together with the dishes Xu Manqiu had cooked earlier, there was enough food for five people.
Zhong Qianxi was stunned by the smooth work done by Jiang Youtao and the others.
Zhong Qianxi is good at arranging troops and fighting and quarreling are also her strong points, but she is not good at cooking.
Not to mention her, even the women in prominent families in Fengzhao don't cook.
A table was set up next to the fire pit. Fu Shaohua rushed to set the table, but Zhong Qianxi didn't get the chance and could only sit and wait.
When the food was served, the soft and sweet cornmeal buns instantly captured everyone's hearts. Paired with a bowl of mutton soup, the side dishes were also delicious in their own ways.
Zhong Qianxi ate so much that she couldn't even lift her head.
This was the best meal she had ever had since traveling through time to this era.
There is no need to talk about Huang Tiehua's cooking skills. She is a person who can waste good things. The food in the company cafeteria is good, but it is less oily and can fill you up, but it cannot satisfy a person's pursuit of heavy oil and salt.
The two meals at Xu Dazui's house were filling, but the taste was a little disappointing.
This meal tonight was satisfying in every way.
After dinner, Zhong Qianxi rushed to collect and wash the dishes. She was familiar with this job and had done it a lot when she was not in a right mind a few days ago.
Even though Huang Tiehua was disgusted with her, Zhong Qianxi wanted to go back and strangle her to death when she thought of what Huang Tiehua said.
After washing the dishes, it was dark outside. Fu Shaohua, a grown man, certainly couldn't stay here for long, so he left, looking back every few steps.
Jiang Youtao sent him out of the alley, and after watching Fu Shaohua walk a few steps away, he quickly strode back: "Taotao, I heard you tell Gu Nianwei that you wanted to find a sparring partner, right?"
Without waiting for Jiang Youtao to speak, Fu Shaohua continued, "My grandfather and my father were both soldiers. When they were young, I trained with them a lot. I am also quite good at martial arts. If you need a sparring partner next time, why don't you look at me?"
Jiang Youtao looked at Fu Shaohua for a while, then smiled: "You said this yourself, you can't regret it!"
Fu Shaohua also laughed and patted his chest: "A real man, a word is a promise, and he will never regret it."
"You are such a man." Jiang Youtao complimented without any intention, which made Fu Shaohua blush immediately.
"Go back quickly, it's quite cold."
Fu Shaohua left in a daze.
When he came back from Xiao's house, he was still wondering when Jiang Youtao would say something nice to him, but he didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.
The wind was very cold at night, but Fu Shaohua felt particularly hot. A surge of excitement surged in his chest, and in the end he just started running.
When Jiang Youtao went back, Gu Nianwei and Zhong Qianxi had already taken off their outer clothes and started fighting with each other. Xu Manqiu watched intently from the side and clapped from time to time.
Jiang Youtao also joined the viewing crowd.
Gu Nianwei was no match for the battle-hardened Zhong Qianxi and was quickly defeated.
Zhong Qianxi withdrew her hand and said, "Your Kung Fu is pretty good, and your kicks are very powerful. If you practice more, four or five people won't be able to get close to you."
Gu Nianwei wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Qianxi, what you said is not honest. I am far inferior to you. If you hadn't let me go, I wouldn't have been able to survive even a single move from you. I have to work harder."
After traveling through time, Gu Nianwei realized the importance of martial arts. From the day she traveled through time, she went to the space to practice every night, and she never missed a day in more than a year. Relying on her skills, she was never afraid to create a black market.
Li Yunying had learned martial arts, and she had won many battles. But against Zhong Qianxi, she was suppressed from the beginning.
Zhong Qianxi was about to say that you can't compare with me, these are my killer moves to save my life on the battlefield. However, before she could open her mouth, Jiang Youtao took off her cotton monkey.
"Qianxi Qianxi, come on, let's try it together."
Zhong Qianxi was stunned: "You also know martial arts?"
Gu Nianwei and Xu Manqiu almost burst out laughing. Jiang Youtao knew nothing.
Jiang Youtao smiled awkwardly: "I understand a little bit."
Zhong Qianxi became interested. She was not stupid during these days. She had asked people in her unit and found out that there were very few girls here who learned martial arts. The status of men and women in this time and space was completely reversed from that of men and women in their world.
Zhong Qianxi was quite pleased to meet two girls who knew martial arts at once.
"Bring it on."
Zhong Qianxi made a starting gesture, and Jiang Youtao also imitated the martial arts stars in later movies and made a starting gesture.
It looks like that.
Zhong Qianxi attacked first, and Jiang Youtao didn't even try to dodge. She was startled and was about to move away when she found that Jiang Youtao squatted down, and then she was picked up by Jiang Youtao.
Zhong Qianxi: Hmm?
What is this move?
Gu Nianwei and Xu Manqiu were already hugging each other and laughing.
Gu Nianwei suppressed her laughter and said, "Xixi, she lied to you. She doesn't know martial arts. She just has a strange strength."
Jiang Youtao also laughed and put her down.
Zhong Qianxi looked at her and laughed: "How strong are you?"
Jiang Youtao has never tried it before: "Maybe I can carry something weighing several hundred kilograms. I haven't tried it yet."
Zhong Qianxi looked at Jiang Youtao with surprise in her eyes.
If Jiang Youtao was born in Fengzhao, with her looks and strength, it would only be a matter of time for her to be crowned a king and appointed as prime minister.
"Let's try it when we have time."
"Okay, okay, okay." It was a bit cold in the yard, so a group of people went into Jiang Youtao's room to drink water and talk.
At the Gu family next door, Gu Hanqing happened to be in the yard, and she heard everything Jiang Youtao said clearly.
She was particularly envious of Jiang Youtao and her friends' relationship.
Gu Hanqing went into the room and saw Liang Shufen sewing clothes on the kang.
When she came in, she asked, "What are they talking about next door? They're all laughing."
Ever since the incident with Lin Manrou, Liang Shufen basically never went out. She felt that as soon as she went out, people outside would look at her strangely.
"Just a few girls playing around." Gu Hanqing took off her shoes and got on the kang. Ever since Gu Hanshen returned to the army, Liang Shufen had separated from Gu's father. She didn't want to sleep alone, so she came to sleep with Gu Hanqing.
Gu Hanqing was annoyed to death. Liang Shufen had now turned into Xianglin Sao, talking about the past events every day and making excuses for herself in every word.
She was reciting again. Gu Hanqing turned over. If this wasn't her mother, she really wanted to kick her out.
Liang Shufen finished her speech and felt a little sad when she saw that Gu Hanqing ignored her. She thought of the girls living next door and suddenly had an idea: "Qing'er, what do you think of those girls next door? The one with the surname Gu is pretty and well-educated. It is said that she is from the capital."
"The one with the surname Jiang is also fine, but she's a little younger and she's from Shanghai, both are big cities. What do you think, we should choose one of them to be your brother's wife?"
"The one with the surname Gu is better, her family is well-off. I think her clothes are not affordable for most people." Liang Shufen became more and more excited as she spoke.
She had not associated these two girls with her son before, but now that she thought about it, the more she thought about it, the more appropriate it seemed.
Gu Hanqing sat up from the kang and said, "Why would two good girls marry my brother, a divorced man? Is my brother so outstanding that people can ignore his dirty marriage in the past? Or is your son better looking than that boy who goes to her house every day?"
Liang Shufen was particularly unhappy when her sweet dream was interrupted: "How can you say that? How can your brother not as good as others? He is a soldier with a good position and a bright future. Aren't these two educated youth satisfied to marry your brother?"
Gu Hanqing found that her mother was becoming more and more stubborn and unwilling to listen to advice, so she sneered: "Then go ask her if she is happy."
Liang Shufen sulked and said, "Of course, I'll go. I don't believe that my son is tall and strong and has a bright future. He and two educated youths who left their hometown would be happy about it."
Gu Hanqing snorted.
·····
It was past eight o'clock when Zhong Qianxi came out of Jiang Youtao's house. She swaggered back to the dormitory and said a few words to the colleague who came out to pour water for foot washing.
After returning to the dormitory and making the kang, she took a light nap for a while. It was not until the second half of the night that she turned over and climbed out of the courtyard wall behind the dormitory.
She is the kind of person who believes in taking revenge on the spot. She didn't think much about the quarrel with Xiao Lianshan this afternoon, and she didn't fight enough with Xiao Zichen and Xiao Zilong. If she just let them go, she felt that she would be angry to death.
There were no entertainment activities in that era, and it was cold in winter, so almost everyone went to bed at seven or eight o'clock. It was now the second half of the night, the wind was freezing, and there was not a single pedestrian on the street.
Zhong Qianxi walked on the street without making any sound. She exuded a dangerous aura and no dog dared to bark.
She went back to Zhongjia Village first. She was fast and good at walking at night. When she arrived at Zhong's house, the father and son of the Zhong family and Yu Huimei were all asleep.
Zhong Qianxi knocked Zhong Wangcai and Zhong Youming unconscious, then carried them by their clothes to a small shabby house near the Xiao family's.
After finishing all this, it was almost dawn.
She walked straight to the Xiao family's house, stretched her wrists, took a running start, climbed onto the top of the wall of the Xiao family's house, and then jumped into the Xiao family's yard silently.
She went to Xiao Zilong and Xiao Zichen's room first. These two shameless guys were sleeping on the same kang.
With a single blow of her hand, the two men were knocked unconscious without even opening their eyes. She slipped out of the room and went to Huang Tiehua and Xiao Lianshan's room.
Huang Tiehua didn't sleep on the kang, but on the floor.
This was one of Xiao Lianshan's punishments for her. As long as she did something wrong, she would not even be allowed to sleep on the kang.
Zhong Qianxi used the same method to chop Xiao Lianshan, then carried him out by the neck and threw him into the shabby house. Then he came back and carried Xiao Zichen and his brother out like chickens.
She stripped the father and his two sons naked, and then stripped the Zhong family's father and his son neatly, and then scattered their clothes everywhere, creating the illusion that they could not wait.
Then when a hint of dawn appeared in the sky, he staggered back to the dormitory, also by climbing over the wall, without disturbing anyone.
When it was completely light in the sky, a woman who got up early to go to the toilet saw two pieces of clothing placed outside the shabby house. She was instantly overjoyed, because cloth was a scarce commodity at that time.
No matter who threw the clothes into the shabby house, just pick them up and wash them, and you can even make two more layers of soles for them.
She walked over quickly to pick up the clothes. The more she picked up, the happier she was. The clothes were so nice, without even a patch on them. If she took them back into the house, washed them, and they were just right for the man in the house to wear.
Just as she was about to go back with the clothes, she seemed to see someone in the shabby house out of the corner of her eye. She couldn't resist her curiosity and pushed the door open carefully.
Five naked men suddenly appeared in front of her. The most amazing thing was that Xiao Zichen and Zhong Youming were sleeping in each other's arms.
Zhong Youming's slap was on Xiao Zichen's butt.
A scream echoed throughout a corner of Zaoxiang Commune.
By noon, the news that Xiao Lianshan, Xiao Zichen, Xiao Zilong, Zhong Wangcai and Zhong Youming had gathered together in a small shabby house near the Xiao family to make trouble had spread throughout the Zaoxiang Commune.
Even Jiang Youtao and Gu Nianwei heard about it.
As soon as they heard it, they knew it was Zhong Qianxi who did it. She is really vindictive. It is so satisfying. They love each other so much!!!
Many people in the commune had guessed it, but no one dared to say that it was Zhong Qianxi who did it. After all, the police had already investigated. Zhong Qianxi had finished her meal at Jiang Youtao's house last night and returned home around eight o'clock. She also chatted with her colleagues in the dormitory.
She was the last one to get up in the morning. Her alibi was very sufficient. After visiting the neighbors of the Xiao and Zhong families, they did not hear anything unusual last night. Therefore, it can be concluded that this gathering was spontaneous and voluntary by the Xiao father and son, and the Zhong father and son.
The Xiao father and son as well as the Zhong father and son did not acknowledge the investigation results, but they could not produce strong evidence to refute them.
The matter has been concluded.
The five of them were charged with hooliganism, after all, they were just a few men messing around together. If they were charged with adultery, and the news got out, would Zaoxiang Commune still have face?
Although people do not need to be detained for hooliganism nowadays, from today on, they will be responsible for the dirtiest and most tiring work in the commune, such as cleaning public toilets and digging out manure.
Nowadays, people trust the police. Once the police's investigation results came out, no one doubted Zhong Qianxi's case anymore.
Thus, the version of the love-hate relationship between the three Xiao family members and the two Zhong family members spread throughout the entire commune.
Everyone said that Xiao Lianshan did not save Zhong Wangcai's life at all, it was all nonsense, they were just mistresses, and under their leadership, Xiao Zichen and Zhong Youming were also a couple, they loved each other but could not be together, Xiao Zilong was the third party who came between Xiao Zichen and Zhong Youming, so he was so eager to get together with his brother as soon as Zhong Qianxi went to work.
The bizarre content and rigorous logic even amazed Jiang Youtao.
She asked the melon-eating system: [ Has Qianxi's fate completely changed? ]
What happened in the past few days has opened the melon-eating system's eyes. It has also built a high-rise building in the system space for the building where Zhong Qianxi broadcasts live. It is extremely satisfied with eating melons.
At the same time, it also feel disgusted with Zhong Qianxi's original world consciousness. She is obviously a big man who is against everything, but it have to make her a big victim in a family ethics drama. Isn't this nonsense? If she don't collapse, who will collapse?
[ Yes, she has completely broken free. From today on, the consciousness of the great world will slowly and gradually repair her soul. It is expected that when she dies, her soul will be completely repaired and can enter reincarnation. At the same time, her talent has also been returned to her. ]
[ For example, her martial arts and her reconnaissance skills. These things were previously taken away by the small world consciousness. ] Jiang Youtao could figure out why they were taken away with her heels.
It's just to better control Zhong Qianxi. Jiang Youtao was so angry: [ The consciousness of that small world is a gay who cheated on marriage, right? Otherwise, why would it favor those cheaters so much? ]
The melon-eating system stopped talking. It actually felt the same way, but world consciousness has no gender, so what Jiang Youtao said is not true.
Jiang Youtao asked again: [ How is the original small world consciousness now? ]
Melon-eating system: [ It has already realized its mistake, and is begging the Great World Consciousness to release it day and night. The Great World Consciousness is too lazy to pay attention to it, and the original punishment for it will not change. ]
Jiang Youtao couldn't help but sigh: [ What if we could throw those world consciousnesses that saw a ghost in front of it into the dungeon to keep it company? Let them go through the memories of the people they harmed over and over again in the dungeons they created. They would definitely feel very happy! ]
The melon-eating system also liked Jiang Youtao's suggestion. The scene must be very interesting, enough for it to write three pages of melon posts. It decided to report it to the main world system.
Jiang Youtao's chat with the melon-eating system ended here. The rewards after the end of Lin Manrou's small world and the rewards after the end of Zhong Qianxi's small world were distributed together. Jiang Youtao glanced at them casually.
The rewards included a lot of food and clothing, hundreds of kilograms of melon seeds of various flavors, and thousands of melon coins. Jiang Youtao was now rich, and she was no longer the one who used to fight wits and courage with the melon-eating system for a few dozen melon coins.
Jiang Youtao waved her hand and bought the Dongbei Dahuabu skin that the Eating Melon System had been eyeing for a long time. In an instant, the red and green canvas covered the entire screen. The Eating Melon System was so beautiful.
Jiang Youtao recalled the description of Xiao Zichen in the book: [ I see Xiao Zichen has been suffering from the cold these past two days. Is he ill? ]
The melon-eating system had forgotten about this, and after a while, it said: [ No, he is fine. ]
Jiang Youtao snorted in her heart. It turned out that Xiao Zichen's illness was all fake, just to make Zhong Qianxi his scapegoat? Jiang Youtao really felt that Zhong Qianxi was too lenient with the Xiao family. These people should be physically castrated.
Jiang Youtao said nothing more. She followed Gu Nianwei towards home. When they passed No. 2 Xingfu Lane, the door of the courtyard was wide open. A pretty woman carrying a bundle in her hand hurriedly ran out of the house and ran away from them.
Gu Nianwei told Jiang Youtao, "The man in this family is a long-distance driver. He had an accident on the road a few days ago. I heard that his leg was broken. The one just now was his wife. There are two young children at home, one is four years old, and the other is a little over one year old. They can't walk yet."
"That young wife left in such a hurry just now, maybe she was going to the hospital to see her husband?"
As soon as Gu Nianwei finished speaking, the young wife stepped on the remaining snow on the ground and fell down with a clang.
The two were startled and rushed over to help.
Just when Jiang Youtao touched his young wife's arm, the prompt sound of the melon-eating system came again.
