Xu Qingxue pulled up to the entrance of the Old Village Committee Courtyard and honked the horn.

Hearing the noise, Wang Xiaoqiang, who was busy in the courtyard, came out to greet her, followed by Liu Juyi.

Liu Juyi, upon seeing a female police officer jump out of the car, was startled and asked Wang Xiaoqiang nervously, "Little Qiang, have you, have you done something wrong?"

"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, she's my friend..." Wang Xiaoqiang gave Liu Juyi a reassuring smile and said.

"Friend..." Liu Juyi muttered in confusion when she saw the female cop take out a bag of cigarettes and liquor from the car and shout to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Little Qiang, come help..."

Wang Xiaoqiang hadn't expected Xu Qingxue to still be in her police uniform, let alone bring him gifts. He hurried over to help carry two cases of Red Bull energy drinks, politely saying, "You didn't have to bring anything, just coming here is enough."

"Ah, I was in such a hurry that I forgot to get you something. It wasn't until I was on the road that I remembered, and these three items I bought from your village's Big Mouth Supermarket—though the place is big, there really isn't much of anything good..."

Golden Leaf in fancy packaging, Luzhou Laojiao, Red Bull drinks... these aren't considered good items?! If this were overheard by the folks in the village, they'd definitely scold Xu Qingxue for not recognizing quality. For the people of Sanmiao Village, these three items are luxuries!

Seeing what was happening before her, Liu Juyi was dumbstruck. The female cop was indeed Wang Xiaoqiang's friend, or she wouldn't have brought gifts. Realizing this, Liu Juyi immediately came forward to help carry the items and warmly invited Qingxue into the courtyard.

The Old Yellow Dog guarding the entrance, seeing Xu Qingxue being welcomed in by its owner, naturally didn't obstruct her.

Xu Qingxue knew that Wang Xiaoqiang's girlfriend, Xia Guifang, was very pretty—so radiant with spirit that it made her jealous. But she hadn't expected another radiant woman to appear today. She marveled internally at how the landscape here truly nurtured people, making the women so beautiful!

However, on seeing that this woman was about the same age as Wang Xiaoqiang and that there were only these two in the courtyard, she immediately suspected they were a couple. She began to wonder why Wang Xiaoqiang, who seemed quite honest, would be so fickle. Had it been such a short time and he'd already switched girlfriends, or was he two-timing?

While Xu Qingxue was entertaining her suspicions, Wang Xiaoqiang had already made the introductions. When introducing Xu Qingxue, he merely mentioned she was the Deputy Director of the Provincial Capital District Public Security and did not refer to her family lineage.

Even so, the news still startled Liu Juyi—Deputy Director of the Provincial Capital District Public Security, that's quite a big shot!

If Wang Xiaoqiang had disclosed Xu Qingxue's family background, Liu Juyi's reaction might have been an even bigger surprise.

After a brief moment of astonishment, Liu Juyi's expression quickly settled back to normal. She maintained an unpretentious but poised hostess's demeanor, which slightly startled Xu Qingxue. Upon realizing that the woman was Wang Xiaoqiang's sister-in-law, she immediately dismissed her previous suspicions. This little farmer was still quite pure!

Having introduced each other and bringing the gifts inside, Big Black and Little Hei came running out of the house. Xu Qingxue, seeing the two Tibetan Mastiff puppies, crouched down, stretched out her hands to pet them, and cheerfully exclaimed, "Ah ha, you two little things have grown so big! By the way, what does Little Qiang usually feed you?"

"Steamed buns, noodles... just some leftovers..." Liu Juyi said truthfully.

Xu Qingxue frowned at this, feeling a wave of frustration wash over her. This Wang Xiaoqiang really was behaving like a typical farmer, feeding purebred Tibetan Mastiffs leftovers!

However, since she had already given the puppies to Wang Xiaoqiang, it wasn't appropriate for her to show her discontent at this point.

Although she tried not to show it, when Wang Xiaoqiang re-emerged, Xu Qingxue still tried to probe indirectly, "Little Qiang, have you named these two little ones yet?"

"I have." Wang Xiaoqiang said with a hint of pride, "The bigger one is called Big Black, and the smaller one is Little Black..."

Upon hearing these names, Xu Qingxue grew even more gloomy, her face revealing an odd smile, thinking to herself how extraordinarily rustic the names were.

"What, is the name not good?" Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't help but ask after seeing Xu Qingxue's expression.

"It's too rustic."

"Rustic is good, rustic breeds strength. Just like the kids in our village, their names are Iron Baby or Steel Egg... Look at how strong and healthy they are!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingxue took another careful look at Big Black and Little Hei and noticed indeed they were growing very strong and quite quickly at that. In slightly more than two months that she hadn't seen them, they had already grown to the height of a person's thigh. She really wondered if they were grown from leftover food!

In fact, if it were only leftover food, they couldn't have grown so fast and strong. You should know that these Tibetan Mastiffs were nurtured with Wang Xiaoqiang's Spiritual Energy, not only were they strong, but they were also extremely fierce; of course, this could only be shown in combat,

The most direct manifestation at the moment was that they were now very spiritually aware. Wang Xiaoqiang only had to give a command, and they could understand his words as if they were human and faithfully carry out their master's orders.

Wang Xiaoqiang gave his sister-in-law, Liu Juyi, a heads-up, saying he was going to the Provincial Capital to buy a truck and then got into Xu Qingxue's car.

On the way to the Provincial Capital, Xu Qingxue asked in surprise, "Little Qiang, are you really going to buy a truck?"

"I do have that in mind," Wang Xiaoqiang said. The Chicken Farm had already been built, and he didn't want to drag it out any longer. It was better to move over sooner to benefit the development of the Chicken Farm.

"That's easy to handle. I have a classmate who runs a car dealership. I'll take you there when the time comes..." Xu Qingxue said.

"That would be great. I don't know anything about car models and performance, so having an acquaintance is certainly better..." Wang Xiaoqiang said cheerfully.

"Eh, those aren't an issue. The main thing is the price; we can get the maximum discount."

"Doesn't that mean you'd owe someone a favor."

"An old classmate, what favor... Going to his place to buy a car means giving him respect..." Xu Qingxue said confidently: "Besides, there's no business without slyness; no matter the discount, they won't make a loss."

"But buying the truck will have to wait until I return. Right now, the priority is to get treatment for auntie," Wang Xiaoqiang said earnestly.

"Right, Little Qiang, if you don't mind, I'll drive straight to the People's First Hospital. My mom's lying in the hospital!" Xu Qingxue said, accelerating the car.

"Of course, I don't mind," Wang Xiaoqiang said, "But let's not be too ostentatious. Keep it low-key, and definitely don't tell anyone I'm treating auntie..."

"Of course. I understand," Xu Qingxue said.

It wasn't until they arrived at the Provincial People's First Hospital that Wang Xiaoqiang realized how necessary his earlier advice was.

The continuous stream of people from various circles visiting Xu's Mother made it clear that considering the Xu Family's background in the Provincial Capital, Xu Yongqian's connections, and their son Xu Kunpeng's official position, the influx of visitors wasn't surprising at all. However, of all the visitors, what Xu Yongqian and his wife hoped most was to see Wang Xiaoqiang.

Their son Xu Kunpeng had also been tirelessly squeezing time to visit his mother at the hospital these past few days, paying attention to the progress of her treatment. However, since he wasn't present when Wang Xiaoqiang last treated Xu's Mother, he had only heard about it afterward and wasn't too impressed with Wang Xiaoqiang's "Qi Gong Therapy"; he didn't have much hope for it.
