The Farmer’s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Chapter 1125: I’m Going to the County City

However, what Zhou Jingui did not know was that he had just left.

Not far away, a person hiding in the straw pile’s eyes lit up. He knocked his sleeping companion awake and said softly, “Continue to watch here. I’ll follow and take a look.”

“Be careful. This guy must be up to no good for sneaking out so early in the morning. It seems that the village chief is right. They are indeed up to something.”

That person nodded, gathered up his clothes, and silently followed.

Then, she followed him all the way into the county city, through the alley, and finally stopped at the back door of the Qiu residence.

The young man from the Chang family frowned and could only wait outside. He waited for nearly an hour before Zhou Jingui came out.

However, he looked very happy.

The young man from the Chang family glanced at the Qiu residence and felt uneasy. He followed Zhou Jingui back to Great Rock Village.

As soon as he entered the village, he quickly found Chief Chang.

Chief Chang’s heart skipped a beat. “The Zhou family is actually so close to the Qiu family? Could their backer be the Qiu family?”

“Patriarch, what should we do now?”

“Wait a moment,” Chief Chang said and hurried into the house. He took a brush and paper and wrote something. Then, he came out and handed the paper to him. “Go and deliver food to the people who are watching the Gu family. Find an opportunity to secretly give this note to Young Master Shao. Don’t let the Zhou family find out. Go.”

Shao Qingyuan quickly received the note and knew what he wanted to know.

Patriarch Chang even thoughtfully wrote down the Qiu family’s background and status in the county.

Gu Yundong also saw the words clearly. “So the Zhou family has a relationship with the Qiu family. They think that they have a backer, so they’re trying their best to suppress the Chang family.”

According to the Chang family head’s letter, the Qiu family’s status in Heyuan County was the same as the Liu family’s status in Fengkai County.

The only difference was that unlike the Liu residence, they did not have relatives working as officials in the capital.

“Do you think that the Qiu family has taken a fancy to this Hong Xiaoni?” At that time, when Gu Yundong guessed that she despised Young Uncle Gu for being poor and wanted to climb up the social ladder, Hong Xiaoni’s expression changed.

Wasn’t the Qiu Residence like that high branch?

Shao Qingyuan wasn’t sure. After all, he felt that since Hong Xiaoni was so ugly, how blind must the people of the Qiu family be to like her?

“I’ll go to the county in the afternoon.”

“Alright, leave this to me. I’m experienced in stalling for time. I won’t let them discover that you’re not around.”

Shao Qingyuan hugged her. “Be careful. If anything happens… choose to protect yourself first. I’ll rush back as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t joke about myself.”

As they spoke, Shao Qingyuan walked towards the courtyard. Before he left, he had to put on a show for the people in the courtyard.

When Shao Qingyuan arrived at the courtyard, he squatted on the ground and wanted to clean up the vat that had been broken yesterday.

Gu Yundong immediately walked over and pulled him up. “Brother Shao, don’t be busy. I took care of Uncle for the entire night yesterday. He won’t have a fever again and again now. Hurry up and go to sleep. I’m here.”

Then, in front of everyone, she pushed Shao Qingyuan into the house.

The people in the courtyard couldn’t help but laugh. “I didn’t expect that while this young master looks so noble, he actually took care of Gu Xiaoxi for the entire night.”

“I’m afraid Gu Xiaoxi’s luck will change in the future.”

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Yundong came out angrily.
