Chapter 253 How about we finish our business first and then go over?
With very little information available, they were at a stalemate until they found out about Kyoto Station...
***
Qian Xiaoni predicted Sun Hao's accident, proving her ability and impressing her superiors.
However, she did not take any measures, and even gloated when Sun Hao got into trouble, which displeased the leaders and the women in the family compound.
Xu Xiaotian was interviewed and told to do ideological education work with the family members. If that didn't work, they would take Qian Xiaoni to the female soldiers for a political lesson.
But who is Qian Xiaoni? She considers herself a chosen one, possessing memories of her past life. She's arrogant and doesn't care about any of that.
Xu Xiaotian kept repeating this for days, until people got annoyed and he blurted out, "On the day of the Awakening of Insects, a landslide will occur in Xiahegou Brigade, burying two-thirds of the village's 157 residents!"
Xu Xiaotian panicked and immediately reported to his superiors. The superiors took the matter very seriously and held a meeting to discuss solutions.
Without the annoying buzzing, Qian Xiaoni became smug again. She knocked on Lu Yuan's door at night and caused trouble for Qiao Manman during the day.
With the soundproofing array in place, even if Qian Xiaoni smashed the door, it wouldn't disturb their sleep. It did, however, leave her with panda eyes every day.
Qiao Manman was bored at home during the day. The goofy guy came over and teased her a bit, just for fun.
Just as he had driven everyone away, the system announced: "Congratulations, host, your merit points have increased by 12!"
Without even asking, she knew where the merit points came from. Qiao Manman said happily, "Sign in for everyone!"
"Congratulations, host. You have obtained one cubic meter of supplies, two fertility pills, an amusement park, and a manor..."
Qiao Manman was all smiles, but after only two minutes, her lips drooped.
The reason is simple: the female protagonist stayed in the family compound and dared not enter the space to play.
That night, Lu Yuan asked her for fertility pills: "Wife, these pills of ours are a hit!"
At first, everyone thought it was too expensive and was unwilling to let their hard-earned money go to waste. Only a few gritted their teeth and bought it, for which they were laughed at by their comrades.
However, in the last two days, their wives were diagnosed with pregnancy.
If it were just one or two cases, it might be a coincidence. But those who did get pregnant were all military wives who had been told by doctors that they would have difficulty conceiving, had been trying to conceive for many years without success, and had just taken fertility pills.
In other words, this thing really works!
Since it's effective, what are we waiting for? Let's go!
The few pills that Brigade Commander He had were bought up by well-informed leaders in no time.
Even though he said, "Your daughter-in-law can have babies, it's a waste of money to eat this!" it couldn't dampen everyone's enthusiasm.
In their words, "Who would want to have one baby at a time when they can have two? It's a waste of time and a lot of suffering! Twins are so joyous, and they're so much easier to take care of!"
Commander He had no choice but to ask Lu Yuan for the pills.
Qiao Manman refused to give it to him, saying she needed to buy the medicinal herbs and prepare it on the spot.
Commander He could understand, but the woman eager to have a baby wouldn't let him off the hook. She would block him every day, from morning till night, from his home to his office, just to get the fertility pills as soon as possible.
Those who are struggling financially, after hearing about the amazing effects of the fertility pills, also want to take a couple to add a new member to their family.
When Brigade Commander He heard about this, he instructed those who were truly in need to write him IOUs, promising to pay back five yuan each month until the debt was paid off.
Many people expressed their gratitude and thanks. Brigade Commander He wanted to say that he wanted to thank Qiao Manman for going.
But Mr. and Mrs. Lu didn't care about empty fame; they even told him to keep it a secret. This left him feeling uneasy and uncertain!
The next day, Qiao Manman asked Lu Yuan to deliver the prescription to Commander He so that he could arrange for someone to purchase the medicinal herbs.
Of course, the prescription is not the complete version.
As a person, you should always have a backup plan, especially since some of the medicinal herbs inside are indeed hard to find, so she plans to use the supplements from her spatial storage.
Commander He was very efficient; he gave her a large package in just three days.
Qiao Manman estimated the quantity and took out one hundred fertility pills from her spatial storage, instructing Lu Yuan to deliver them to Commander He in seven days.
"Qian Xiaoni said that a landslide would occur in Xiahegou Brigade on the day of Jingzhe (the day of the Awakening of Insects).
Qiao Manman frowned slightly: "It seems like my grandpa and his family were doing agricultural support in Xiaohegou."
Lu Yuan's expression turned serious: "Don't worry, Brigade Commander He has already sent someone to talk to the captain of the Xiaohegou Battalion, saying that around the time of the Awakening of Insects, we can borrow their territory for military exercises. We want them to leave in advance."
Will they relocate?
"It should be possible! These days, the people are very enthusiastic, and they'll help out whenever the army needs it. If Brigade Commander He speaks to them seriously, I reckon the battalion commander will think about why they had to choose their village and why they had to move the people away. After a while, people will inevitably start thinking about spies."
"So, you don't even need to urge them; they'll be eager to run away."
Lu Yuan raised his hand and flicked Qiao Manman's nose: "You can't say you're running away, that's called cooperating with the work!"
Qiao Manman grabbed his hand: "You're right, I used the wrong words!"
Looking into Qiao Manman's bright eyes, Lu Yuan felt a surge of desire. He pulled her into his arms: "Wife, it's been so long since we've done 'that'!"
Qiao Manman knew that even when they occasionally shared a bed, she would feel restless and unable to sleep. But Qian Xiaoni was watching over her, and Xu Xiaotian was guarding outside.
Besides, it wasn't her own home. There was only one single bed, and she had to let the woman rest during the day. She wasn't shameless enough to make a living in such an environment.
When Lu Yuan brought it up, Qiao Manman's mind started to wander: "How about we finish our business first and then go over?"
Lu Yuan excitedly picked her up and spun her around: "It should have been like this a long time ago! Honey, hurry, hurry, I can't wait!"
He then rushed into the bedroom!
Qiao Manman slapped his hand away: "What's the rush? Go take a shower first!"
Lu Yuan carried the person into the bathroom: "Together!"
Qiao Manman didn't refuse, so much so that the two of them ended up in the water...
It doesn't matter, as long as it feels great.
An hour later, Lu Yuan felt refreshed, while Qiao Manman, blushing and wearing a thin cotton-padded jacket, went to Qian Xiaoni's temporary residence to keep watch.
Qiao Manman remained calm and even brought Xu Xiaotian a late-night snack.
The three were chatting and laughing when Qian Xiaoni immediately sensed something was wrong: "Qiao Manman, how dare you sleep with Lu Yuan behind my back!"
Qiao Manman poked her disdainfully, sending her flying two meters away: "He's my man, I can sleep with him whenever I want!"
"You, you are shameless!"
Qian Xiaoni took a deep breath and tried to adjust her expression.
Finally, he gave an extremely obsequious, fake smile: "Darling, what's the point of just sleeping with one woman? I come from the future and know many new tricks. Do you want to try them with me?"
Before Qiao Manman could speak, Xu Xiaotian exploded: "Qian Xiaoni, are you even a woman? How can you be so promiscuous?"
Qian Xiaoni curled her lip in disdain: "What's wrong with that? You men are allowed to be fickle, but we women have to be faithful to one man?"
Pshaw, I can sleep whenever I want, as much as I want!
If you don't want to be cuckolded, give me the divorce certificate sooner rather than later. I don't know what you're dragging your feet on. Are you reluctant to let me go, or are you reluctant to let go of the fame and fortune I bring?
