Seeing that Kang Xiaoqiao was so nervous, Lu Yichen reached out to touch her head and said, "Don't worry, we're not going back to my house, we're going to visit our relatives."
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Meeting her relatives, it scared her to death. Meeting relatives was better than meeting her in-laws. Probably all girls would be afraid of meeting their in-laws.
Although she had some experience in her previous life, that group of people only needed to bribe them with benefits. They didn't need to put in any effort and only needed to worry. Because she didn't like that person, she naturally didn't care about the opinions of his family. As long as she did what she had to do... Then she was a person worthy of praise.
However, Lu Yichen was different. She liked this person and naturally cared about everything about him. If his family could like her, wouldn't that be the best?
Of course, she also knew that she wasn't RMB. It was impossible for everyone to like her. On the other hand, even if others didn't like her, she had to do what she had to do. This way, she wouldn't have a guilty conscience.
No, she had to quickly tidy up. The scar removal cream she made for her sister was almost done. After she was done, she felt at ease.
...
Kang Daqiao finally sent these sisters-in-law away. She was almost exhausted. It wasn't a good job to entertain people. She truly admired her little sister. She chatted and laughed with these sisters-in-law. It was as natural as eating and drinking water. That was relaxed and carefree. Why did she have to put in so much effort?
Eh...
However, these people were really free. Didn't their family have work to do? This chatter lasted for two to three hours, and they only talked about one or two things. It was really...
Kang Daqiao had just sat down to rest and drank a mouthful of water. Then, she saw two people coming to the door. Before they reached the courtyard, they opened their mouths and said.
"Sis, sis, I'm back."
Kang Daqiao saw the situation and hurriedly came over to take the things. "Little sister, brother-in-law, why are you back so early? Eh, why did you take all the things back? Little sister, um, aren't you going to the mountains anymore?"
After Kang Daqiao took the things in Kang Xiaoqiao's hands, she panted and said, "I'm not going, I'm not going."
After walking a few steps, she frowned and said, "Sister, what's going on?"
The ground was covered with melon seeds and skins. It was obvious that someone had been here. How much did Kang Daqiao love cleanliness?
When Kang Daqiao saw this, she immediately sighed and told her everything that had happened today. Everyone could hear the depression in her tone.
After she said this, she originally thought that Kang Xiaoqiao would comfort her a little. In the end, after Kang Xiaoqiao heard it, she... Without thinking, she said, "Sis, the sisters-in-law of the military compound don't have much to do in a day. It's good to come to the house. It's quite lonely for you to be at home alone. It's just nice to have someone to accompany you."
"Tomorrow, I'm going out with Yichen. I think I'll be gone for a few days. I'll leave the house to you. When you have nothing to do, you can chat with the sisters-in-law. It's also good to talk."
"What?"
When Kang Daqiao heard this, she immediately asked, "Little sister, where are you going? Are you going back to your in-law's house? Aiya, then you have to prepare well."
While the two sisters were talking, Lu Yichen had already left.
The two of them whispered to each other. Kang Daqiao was mostly talking about her experience. Although Kang Xiaoqiao did not agree, she did not refute.
She had a lot of things to do when she was going out the next day. At night, she told Kang Daqiao in detail about the things that she had made.
"Sister, use this descarring cream well. Your scar will fade soon. Time is tight, so do this first. You can use it on your face and hands first. When I come back, I can make more."
Kang Daqiao saw that her sister was going to leave, and she felt reluctant and nervous. "Little sister, you must be obedient when you go. Whatever his relatives say, don't argue with them. Our family background is not good, so we can't compare with others. To be able to get a husband like brother-in-law, you have already fallen into a blessed nest."
"If others say it, then so be it. It won't lose a piece of flesh. I'm not worried about other things, but I'm worried about your stubborn temper. What if you quarrel with others? You're not familiar with the place there. Even if you're bullied, no one will support you."
Hearing that, Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Sister, you don't have to worry. Don't I still have Lu Yichen? He'll naturally protect me."
Kang Daqiao was choked by her. Then, she glared at her and said, "You stinky girl. Brother-in-law has a good temper, but you can't cause trouble for him."
After saying that, she went to rummage through the cabinets and took out a handkerchief. She wrapped it tightly. "Little sister, if you go to the in-laws' house, I won't be able to help you much. This is the only thing I have on me. Although it's not very valuable, if you bring it with you, you can still respond to an emergency."
Kang Xiaoqiao stopped folding the quilt. Then, she saw an old handkerchief handed to her. Kang Xiaoqiao's heart could not help but feel warm.
Kang Xiaoqiao knew that this was the only thing that her sister had, but she gave it all to her without any scruples. Kang Xiaoqiao did not take it. Instead, she pushed it back and said, "Sister, I have money. I don't need your things. You should keep it."
Seeing this, Kang Daqiao stuffed the thing into her hand. "Little sister, don't think it's too little. I've asked around. This can be exchanged for some money. Our mother has asked me for it several times, but I said I didn't see it. You must not let her know."
Kang Xiaoqiao felt the item in her hand. It was a little hard, but it wasn't money. She couldn't help but open it out of curiosity. Then, she frowned.
"Sister, why do you have this thing?"
Kang Daqiao saw this and.. She lowered her head and said, "One time, I secretly heard that this thing was given to me when I was born. I heard that there was a golden lock or something like that. However, those were exchanged for rations by my mother. Only this piece of jade was left. No one wanted it. They said it was fake, so I kept it."
"I liked it very much when I saw it, so I kept wearing it secretly. Because mother couldn't find it, she scolded me a few times, but I didn't tell her."
"Little sister, I secretly asked about this. It can't be sold at a price here, so no one will want it. However, I heard that the people in the city like it. If you need it urgently, sell it."
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at the warm jade pendant in her hand. It was not big, and it was broken. This should be a corner of the jade pendant, but even so, this broken piece of jade was smooth and shiny. It felt warm in her hand. It was cold first, then warm. This was a serious Hetian Nuan jade.
There was actually a Nuan jade in the northeast?
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at Kang Daqiao and could not help but frown. Whether it was the Nuan jade or the golden lock, these were all things owned by wealthy families. Who would give them to a village baby girl for no reason?
This did not make sense, unless the Kang family had helped them a lot. However, if there was such a noble person, with Mother Kang's talkative mouth, how could she not tell them?
However, Kang Xiaoqiao had searched through her memory but had never heard of it. There must be a secret in it.
