There was no hesitation or resistance. It was unknown whether it was because she had learned her lesson the last time or because Kang Xiaoqiao's momentum was too strong.
Kang Xiaoqiao held it in her hand and looked at it. She felt that this plum blossom brand watch looked better than the other watches on the counter. Therefore, she didn't say anything. She waved her hand and bought it--
The four of them left the department store with satisfaction. Kang Xiaoqiao didn't drag everything back. Instead, she picked a few things and had the two young soldiers drag her back to the department to send it to her sister.
There were ready-made clothes, daily necessities, and some dexterous items. At the same time, Kang Xiaoqiao also bought some jewelry. However, gold jewelry was expensive, so she planned to give it to her sister personally.
Xia Yunshu also got a lot of new clothes. Because there was only one plum blossom watch, the little girl chose a different watch and wore it beautifully on her hand. She was very happy.
Kang Xiaoqiao also bought a new dress for the old lady. It was rare to find one that looked especially good. The old lady would definitely look good in it.
Kang Xiaoqiao bought things for the elders and the youngest generation of the Kang family, but for the others she did not buy anything. When they got out of the car, Xia Qingzhu saw it. She was so envious that she became rabbit eyes. Even the two sisters from the third branch were speechless.
However, no one could find fault with it. Kang Xiaoqiao respected the old and loved the young. You can't force things on a child, right? The seniority was there.
The old lady was very happy when she received the gift. She smiled and said, "You child, don't waste money buying new clothes for this old lady in the future. She's half-buried. What will she wear differently?"
Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "How can that be? Grandma is still young. In the future, I'll buy clothes for grandma every year."
At this time, second aunt curled her lips and said, "Yichen's wife, you have to be more careful with your life. Is it easy for our Yichen to receive some allowance? How can it be enough for you to spend so freely?"
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard that, she immediately said, "No matter how hard it is, being filial to the elderly is still a duty. Second aunt, being filial to the elderly is a virtue--"
"You--"
Kang Xiaoqiao could not be bothered with her. The old lady was also extremely disappointed in her. When she thought of her second son who was about to arrive home, the old lady's head started to hurt again. She found the second aunt even more displeasing, so she dismissed her and left.
However, she left Kang Xiaoqiao alone. She held onto Kang Xiaoqiao's hand and said with an amiable expression, "Xiaoqiao, you child, grandma knows that you're a good child."
"Although your second aunt has a bad mouth, she is right about one thing. You should be careful and not be extravagant in your life."
"Here, take this--"
Kang Xiaoqiao saw that the old lady gave her another red packet and immediately declined. "Grandma, there's no need. This is all the filial piety of your granddaughter-in-law. There's no other meaning."
The old lady smiled gently and said, "This old lady knows that whoever is truly filial to me. You can take it if grandma gives it to you. With money in your hand, you won't panic."
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at the red packet in her hand. For some reason, her eyes were especially sore, as if there were drops of water falling down.
Kang Xiaoqiao was afraid of losing her composure and quickly lowered her head. Although the old lady's eyes were not very good, she could see clearly. Then, she sighed and said, "Good child, why are you crying?"
"Grandma is old and can't look after you for a few years. However, you've done well during this period of time. You're a sensible and good child."
"Grandma hopes that you and Chenchen can live a good life and give birth to a great-grandson for grandma as soon as possible. Grandma will be happy."
Kang Xiaoqiao blushed when she heard that and said shyly, "Grandma--"
...
After coming out of the old lady's room, Kang Xiaoqiao let out a huge sigh of relief. How useless. How could you not be able to stand the fact that the other party only treated you a little better? How much do you lack love?
However, Kang Xiaoqiao could not help but be touched by the old lady's sincere concern. Looking at the red packet in her hand, Kang Xiaoqiao smiled slightly. It felt so good to have someone to love!
There were only two days left until the wedding date, but there was still no news from Lu Yichen. Kang Xiaoqiao was a little anxious.
However, there was nothing she could do even if she was anxious. There was no cell phone and no one to find.
However, on this day, Kang Xiaoqiao received a call from Lin Hai saying that he was back.
Kang Xiaoqiao immediately arranged to meet him happily. These two thousand bottles of beauty cream were sold at five dollars per unit. After deducting the cost, the net profit was seven to eight thousand dollars. It could be considered a huge profit.
However, cosmetics had always been a lucrative industry.
Now that she had the money, Kang Xiaoqiao naturally would not be timid. Her ambition was huge.
And Lin Hai had also earned some money from the previous cooperation. Although it wasn't a lot of money, for him, the income from doing something along the way was definitely enough.
Moreover, he also had high hopes for Kang Xiaoqiao. The two of them had feelings for each other. Oh, pooh, pooh, pooh--
If both of them were profitable, this friend could continue to be friends. Therefore, once Kang Xiaoqiao mentioned it, Lin Hai agreed.
Kang Xiaoqiao said goodbye to her aunt and then set off with the two soldiers.
Now, the two of them were much more familiar with Kang Xiaoqiao and could at least talk. Unlike before, when Kang Xiaoqiao opened her mouth, the two of them were as dumb as a mule and kept silent.
This time, Kang Xiaoqiao opened her mouth as soon as she got into the car. "Brother Wang, Brother Zhou, let's go to the tea house on the main street today."
The two of them looked at each other. This sister-in-law was really torturous every day. Ever since she came to the provincial capital, she had not stopped. She was either meeting this or that. Thieves could spend money and thieves could buy things.
The two of them were only in charge of Kang Xiaoqiao's safety. They did not know how much money they had earned from Kang Xiaoqiao's transactions. Even if they knew, they probably would not believe it.
However, Kang Xiaoqiao had bought things for them. As the saying goes, if you take her hand short, you eat her mouth short. However, these days, she had also taken and eaten, so--
"Okay, sister-in-law, sit tight."
Without saying anything else, he drove away. Kang Xiaoqiao was extremely satisfied with the attitude of the two of them. She still remembered what she had wanted to do back then. He had asked and asked all sorts of questions, but it did not annoy her to death.
Everything was fine now. Hehe, it seemed that the human heart was made of flesh. She didn't get along with them for nothing these few days. Alright, it wasn't a waste of her hard work.
This time, they met with Lin Hai and had a good chat. After agreeing on the specific matters of purchasing goods, Kang Xiaoqiao said again, "Brother Lin, about that, I want to find a factory. Do you have any good ideas?"
Lin Hai took a sip of tea. "Factory? Sister Kang, are you going to do something big?"
Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "I have this idea. It's really a little remote in the ministry, so it's not very convenient. But there's no rush."
Lin Hai nodded and said, "Okay, leave this to brother. I'm familiar with this area. When I find a suitable one, I'll give you a call."
Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and thanked him. Then, the two of them smiled and said goodbye. They got into the car and left.
Kang Xiaoqiao was satisfied with her gains today. However, when the car was halfway, Kang Xiaoqiao's expression suddenly changed and she shouted, "Stop the car."
