Forget it, he fell on the bed, and if he couldn't think of it, he didn't think about it. If he came, he would settle down and treat it as a free trip.

He lay flat on the bed, drowsiness gradually hit him, as if someone had covered him with a quilt in a daze.

He wanted to see, but couldn't open his eyes.

Wang Qingqing watched her son's mouth open and close, and leaned closer to listen, but heard nothing.

Qiao Dahe stood by the door and watched his wife's movements, and hummed suspiciously.

Wang Qingqing shook her head, walked out gently, and closed the door.

"what happened?"

Wang Qingqing looked up: "Do you think Qiao Jiu has a date?"

"Who are you talking about?" Qiao Dahe scowled, "You're still a student!"

"Let me tell you why you are so hot?" Wang Qingqing lowered her face: "Qiao Jiu is not young, Qiao Yang's son is almost going to school."

"Okay, I won't tell you."

"Slow down your voice." Wang Qingqing looked back at Qiao Jiu's room: "My son just fell asleep."

When Qiao Jiu got up the next day, Wang Qingqing had already prepared the meal. Besides Qiao Dahe and Wang Qingqing, there was a young man in the room who looked older than Qiao Jiu, with a big back, good-looking facial features, and always With a smile, it looks like it makes people feel good.

Qiao Jiu knew this person, Yuanshen's only friend, Qiao Yang.

Qiao Yang stopped studying after graduating from high school and went to the north to work. There, he met a girl from the city, got married the next year, and gave birth to a son last year.

Qiao Yang was happy to see Qiao Jiu, so he slapped him on the shoulder: "Your boy is back."

Qiao Jiu raised the corner of his mouth: "When did you come back?"

"I've been back for a few days. I was at my grandmother's place yesterday, and I just came back this morning. By the way, the beginning of the new year will be an internship, right?"

"The second half of the year."

"Have you figured out where to go?"

"Let's see when the time comes," Qiao Jiu poured water to wash his face, "It's still early."

Qiao Dahe answered the phone and yelled to Wang Qingqing in the kitchen: "Jiu's mother, order more food, my brother said that Boss Gu is coming!"

Qiao Jiu turned around, just in time to see Qiao Yang's expression.

Wang Qingqing wiped her hands on the apron: "Why are you here today?"

"It happened to be right here, so come and have a look." Qiao Dahe replied, and said to Qiao Jiu, "Go get some tofu from your uncle, and then call Qiao Qiang over."

Qiao Qiang is the current village chief. He is of the same generation as Qiao Jiu, so Qiao Jiu has to call him brother.

He nodded, poured out the water in the basin, and walked to the next door.

When he was about to go out, he heard Qiao Yang's voice, but it was not very clear, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

But when Qiao Jiu recalled his previous expression, he must have calculated something in his heart, but he didn't know what he was planning.

As soon as Qiao Jiu went out, he realized that it was not yet dawn and it was foggy. He took out his watch and looked at it. It was not yet eight o'clock, no wonder.

Qiao Jiu went to the uncle's door and knocked on the door. It was the uncle's mother who opened the door. When she saw Qiao Jiu, she smiled and called Qiao Jiu in.

Qiao Jiu shook his head and shrunk his neck: "Auntie, my dad told me to come over to get two lumps of tofu, and by the way he got up, saying that the medicine boss is coming."

The uncle obviously knew about this, she slapped her thigh: "Why did you come here?"

"I don't know, uncle just called." After thinking for a while, Qiao Jiu said again: "I have to call Brother Qiang, you can help me get the tofu later."

"Okay, you go to Qiao Qiang, and I'll get the tofu." While talking, he hurried into the room.

Qiao Jiu sniffed and turned to leave, wondering if he had a cold while walking.

Qiao Qiang's house is on the other side of the village. Qiao Jiu walked for nearly 10 minutes before arriving. He came out in the morning without much clothes, shivering when the wind blows.

Qiao Jiu said suddenly: "The system, are you there?"

"exist."

"This isn't Earth, is it?"

"It's Earth."

"Impossible." Qiao Jiu thought about what happened in the past few days. "This year is 18 years old. How can the earth be so backward?"

There is no smartphone, the TV is pitifully small, and even an electric blanket has become a rare commodity.

The voice of the system remained unchanged: "It's Earth."

"Forget it," Qiao Jiu pouted, "I won't tell you."

Having said that, I arrived at Qiao Qiang's house, which was still a tile-roofed house. Most of the villages are tile-roofed houses. Qiao Jiu was really uncomfortable. He knocked on the door, but no one answered, and knocked again, but still no one answered.

Qiao Jiu moved closer to shout, but heard the quarrel in the room.

Faintly, I can't hear clearly.

Qiao Jiu paused and shouted, "Brother Qiang! Sister-in-law!"

The voice inside the door stopped immediately, and the door was opened, revealing the face of Qiao Qiang's wife: "Qiao Jiu, what's the matter?"

Qiao Jiu looked inside the door, not only Qiao Qiang's family, he smiled and said: "My father asked me to ask Brother Qiang to eat, and the medicinal material boss."

"Okay," Xie Hua nodded, but he didn't intend to let Qiao Jiu in. Qiao Jiu smiled, didn't care, turned and left.

Flipping through the original body's memory, he matched up with the people in the house one by one. The former village chief, Qiao Yehong, and her mother, Wang Gui, seemed to be arguing very fiercely, but they didn't know what they were arguing about.

But when I turned around and thought about it, I was really flustered, why pay attention to these things.

When passing the village entrance, I saw a car parked at the door, a white Santana, which was out of place with this village.

Before Qiao Jiu approached, his uncle got out of the car, and then another person got out, wearing a suit and leather shoes. Compared with that car, this person was even more out of place.

As if he had noticed something, he looked in Qiao Jiu's direction.

Qiao Jiu was shocked.

Following the man's gaze, Wang Feng waved at Qiao Jiu: "Jiu, come here!"

Qiao Jiu walked over slowly, and heard Wang Feng boasting to the man: "My nephew, a college student, this is the first job in the village..."

Looking at Qiao Jiu again: "This is Boss Gu, you..."

As he spoke, he was taken aback.

Boss Gu took the call: "My name is Gu Ci."

Qiao Jiu glanced at him, then lowered his head again: "Boss Gu."

Everyone in the room came out when they heard the voice, Qiao Yang saw Gu Ci's eyes lit up: "This is Boss Gu!"

Wang Feng smiled and called out: "Brother Dashan, brother-in-law."

Qiao Dahe's simple and honest face was full of smiles: "Come in, let's all go in."

Qiao Jiu walked at the end and saw Wang Feng put his hand on Gu Ci's shoulder, and Gu Ci was also smiling. He only looked at it for a few seconds, and then met Gu Ci's eyes.

Only then did he see Gu Ci's appearance clearly, thick eyebrows, big eyes, high nose, standard handsome appearance, but thin lips, making him look more handsome, but Qiao Jiu felt a little annoyed for no reason after looking at it.

Qiao Jiu felt a little baffled, and he was sure that he had never seen this person before, and after thinking about it for a long time, he had never seen this person before.

So what's bothering you?

The other party was still looking at him. After all, he was the boss, so he couldn't offend him. After thinking about it for a long time, Qiao Jiu grinned and opened a smiling face.

Gu Ci turned his head.

Qiao Jiu curled his lips: "Tsk."

Not really cute.

The people in the house laughed at Yan Yan, and Wang Qingqing went in and out with vegetables: "We don't have much to eat in the countryside here, so don't mind."

Gu Ci smiled and took Wang Feng and handed over the wine: "It's okay, I like it very much."

Wang Feng: "Sister, don't mess with it, come and eat."

When Qiao Jiu entered the room, everyone looked over, but turned their heads again in a second, only Gu Ci kept watching, Qiao Jiu glanced at him: "Mom, I'm here to help."

Wang Feng saw Gu Ci looking at his eldest nephew's back, and bumped him with his elbow: "What are you looking at?"

Seeing that Gu Ci didn't speak, he continued: "Don't talk about it, my nephew, don't talk about being extravagant."

"Yes," Gu Ci lowered his head, "I know."

When Qiao Jiu came out with the dishes, Qiao Qiang also arrived, accompanied by the former village head.

The men were eating in the living room, while Wang Qingqing and the uncle were watching the stewed soup in the kitchen.

Qiao Jiu sat in the kitchen looking at the pot, and listened carefully to the sounds coming from the main room.

Wang Qingqing pushed him: "Qiao Jiu, go to your father's place."

"Oh." Qiao Jiu replied, carrying the bowl and leaving.

Qiao Yang saw him as soon as he entered, and pointed to the chair next to him: "Joe sits here for a long time."

He looked around, Gu Ci was sitting first, Wang Feng was on his left, Qiao Dahe and Qiao Dashan were next, Qiao Yehong, Qiao Qiang and Qiao Yang were on his right, and the only empty seat was between Qiao Dashan and Qiao Yang.

Opposite Gu Ci.

Qiao Jiu was upset and irritable, and he couldn't find the reason, so he could only sit down silently.

He didn't talk much, just listened, and added bowls of rice for everyone from time to time.

What they were discussing was about the medicinal materials. Gu Ci's idea was to follow the same model as Wang Feng and the others, find a person in charge, and he would come directly to collect the medicinal materials when the time came.

Qiao Qiang asked: "Boss Gu, this is our first time and we have no experience. If..."

"You don't have to worry about this, just do what we say, and you won't lose money."

Qiao Jiu lowered his head and couldn't see the face. He just listened to the voice, and voiced Qiao Jiu to express that he couldn't stand it anymore. When he looked up, he found that the other party was looking at him.

Qiao Qiang wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Wang Feng: "You are the one to trouble! Brother Gu said that if you don't lose money, you won't lose money. If you lose money, I will take responsibility. It's done!?"

Qiao Qiang's face was not very good, but he immediately suppressed it again, with a smile on his face.

Gu Ci took a sip of his wine: "You have also seen the development of Wangjia Village in the past few years..."

Qiao Qiang glanced at Wang Feng, nodded quickly, and smiled so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "Then look at the person in charge..."

"It's up to me," Wang Feng said with a smug look on his face, "It's just my brother-in-law."

"It's not good," Qiao Qiang said with embarrassment, "After all, the village..."

Seeing Wang Feng's complexion, he went on to say, "I don't care about it, but the village must be mobilized. You see, Dahe hasn't been in frequent contact with the villagers in recent years..."

"That's right," Wang Feng sneered, "You're waiting for me here!"

He put down the wine glass in his hand: "Speak well, don't turn corners, don't think I don't know why my sister and the others have endured such a life all these years!"

Qiao Qiang looked embarrassed, looking at Gu Ci, as if he had been wronged so much, and Wang Feng next to him was about to say something, but was stopped by Qiao Dahe.

Qiao Jiu remembered the TV series he watched a while ago.

Qiao Qiang is like a concubine who has been wronged, and Wang Feng is like the main wife who taught the concubine a lesson.

Thinking about it this way, and looking at the expressions of the two of them, Qiao Jiu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The sound was particularly abrupt in the room, everyone looked over, Qiao Qiang straightened his face: "What are you laughing at?"

With the meaning of reprimand.

Qiao Jiu: "..."

Is this treating yourself as a step down?

Wang Feng, who had been dragged to sit down by Qiao Dahe, was unhappy again: "What are you talking about? Why are you training Qiao Jiu? Are you his elder? Can you train him?"

Qiao Jiu quickly waved his hand: "Uncle, I'm fine, you can eat." Then he looked at Wang Feng's bowl that was about to bottom out: "Let me scoop the rice for you."

Wang Feng handed the bowl to Qiao Jiu: "Go."

When Qiao Jiu turned around, he met Qiao Qiang again: "What are you looking at? Qiao Jiu calls you brother, don't really think of yourself as brother, I don't like our Qiao Jiu's association with people like you!"

Qiao Yehong said: "Don't argue about this matter, it was Fengzi who won it over, so it should be given to their family."

"That's right, Uncle Ye Hong is still reasonable, why don't you just come back and become the village chief."

"No, no," Qiao Yehong refused with a smile, "Now it's the young people's world!"

The words were nice, but Qiao Jiu noticed that when he said this, he glanced at Qiao Qiang, and his eyes didn't seem to mean that.

Qiao Jiu remembered that Qiao Yehong gave up the position of village chief by himself. It is said that he went to the city to do business. He is not old if he is said to be old, but he is older, and he is one year stronger than Qiao.

Wang Feng took the bowl from Qiao Jiu's hand and ate with his head buried.

Qiao Yehong had a smile on his face, with a sincere expression: "I wonder if I can take a part in this business?"

He looked much more pleasing to the eye than Qiao Qiang. Qiao Qiang had small eyes, a big nose, thick lips, and was fat. Children in the village once called him a pig in private.

Compared with Qiao Yehong, he is much better. He has good facial features and is thin, but he is too thin. Qiao Jiu took a few glances, and he looked like a bamboo pole.

Gu Ci's expression didn't change, he agreed directly, Qiao Jiu thought it was fake.

In the second half of the time, Qiao Qiang's expression was not very good, but Qiao Yehong still talked to him from time to time.

It's just that the occasional flashes of complacency in his eyes can't be stopped.

Qiao Jiu promises that this kind of person will never survive three episodes in the TV series.

In the next few days, Wang Feng and Gu Ci stayed at their house. Wang Feng ran here and there with Qiao Dahe and the others every day, not knowing what they were doing.

On the other hand, Gu Ci never went out much, and stayed at Qiao Jiu's house peacefully.

One by one, Wang Qingqing almost forgot that her son's name was Qiao Jiu.

Even the aunt would often come over to deliver tofu, in the euphemistic name of filling Gu Ci's body.

Qiao Jiu was stunned, and this operation?

In the evening, Qiao Jiu was ordered by his mother to call Qiao Dahe and the others to have dinner. The place to grow medicinal herbs has been selected, and the people in the village have been counted. Qiao Dahe happily patted Qiao Jiu on the shoulder: "Just wait for the new year to start." Already!"

Looking at the energetic Qiao Dahe, Qiao Jiu was also happy from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Feng was still thinking: "Look, my nephew is sweating, next time uncle buys you a mobile phone, so you don't have to go so far..."

"No need, no need." Qiao Jiu waved his hand. At this time, mobile phones are a rare thing. There are only three in the village. The one of Qiao Dahe was replaced by Wang Feng. Qiao bought it when he was doing business outside a few years ago. The strong one seems to be given by some relative.

When leaving, Qiao Yehong suddenly stopped Qiao Jiu: "I saw Boss Gu repairing your dad's phone last time?"

There is such a thing, Qiao Jiu nodded.

"Then ask him if he can take a look for me."

"All right," Qiao Jiu said, "I'll go back and ask."

If it doesn't work, I'll do it myself.

"Okay, okay, you go back."

"Then I'm leaving, Uncle Ye Hong, you should go back earlier."

When turning the corner, Qiao Jiu suddenly turned his head. Today, the fire is burning, and the sky and the ground are all red. Qiao Yehong is standing in it, and only a silhouette can be seen.

At night, when Qiao Jiu was in a drowsy sleep, he suddenly heard the mechanical sound of the system.

"Please host to find the murderer who killed Qiao Yehong."

Qiao Jiu's body froze, and he suddenly lost his sleepiness, as if he had fallen into a hole in the ice.
