When Xia Zijun came over, he was wearing a half sleeve issued by the ministry. He was not wearing a uniform, so naturally, his epaulets could not be seen. Therefore, it was normal for him to be regarded as a small soldier.
Wu Xiaoyan was choked by Kang Xiaoqiao's retort, causing her face to turn red and white.
Kang Xiaoqiao ignored her. Instead, she said to Wang Xuehua with a mischievous smile, "Sister-in-law Wang, I'm here to ask for some seeds from you. Although it's a little late to plant vegetables now, at least you can grow some to eat. However, I'm not good at planting. If you have extra seeds, you have to give me more."
Hearing that, Wang Xuehua immediately said with a smile, "I've already prepared them for you when you finished talking last time. Wait a moment, I'll bring them to you now."
In a short while, Wang Xuehua took a small bag with all kinds of vegetable seeds in it. Kang Xiaoqiao took the seeds that Wang Xuehua gave and thanked her before leaving. She didn't even look at Zhao Xiulan throughout the whole process. Zhao Xiulan was so angry that her face turned red and white, white and red.
What could be more infuriating than treating you as air? She didn't believe that Kang Xiaoqiao didn't see her.
And Kang Xiaoqiao did see her. However, she couldn't be bothered with this white lotus who didn't mean what she said. Since her face was already torn, there was no need to bother with her.
She thought that this person wouldn't appear for a while. She didn't expect that this person was thick-skinned enough to come out just like that.
At the same time, she looked at Xia Zijun who was digging the ground with all her might. This stinky brat was always causing trouble for her. He ran to her house for no reason. They were a man and a woman. How could he not be talked about by these gossips?
At the same time, she secretly regretted. Damn it, wasn't he just greedy for a cheap ride? Was there a need to stay at her house and not leave?
Kang Xiaoqiao was extremely resentful. However, she could not control these people's gossiping hearts no matter what. She simply could not be bothered to care about it. She would give an excuse first. After Xia Zijun finished digging the ground, she would have to chase him away as soon as possible.
After all, everything was put to good use. Now that it had been paid attention to, it was not a matter of time.
During dinner, Cui Huihui reluctantly went home. Kang Xiaoqiao and Xia Zijun ate their meals. She looked at Xia Zijun, who was happily eating.
Kang Xiaoqiao's head was full of black lines. This idiot had a good face. When she saw that she had almost finished eating, her face was cold. She coughed twice and said, "Ahem, well, I've worked hard today. Thank you."
Xia Zijun was eating happily. He had indeed worked hard today, but it was a bit far-fetched to say that he was tired. The intensity of his training was much stronger than this. It was just turning over the soil. He had once dug a deep pit.
However, this girl was still so hard after thanking him. It was just a bet with her. Why was she so stingy? Only women and villains were hard to raise.
Therefore, he put down the bowl and chopsticks, took out a handkerchief, wiped the corner of his mouth, and said, "Well, I've turned over so much ground today. It's quite hard work."
Then, his peach blossom eyes twitched. He looked at Kang Xiaoqiao and said with a smile, "I've worked so hard. It's not good enough for you to cook this dish. How about this? I'll come over tomorrow afternoon and make more firewood. You should make more delicious food to reward me."
Hearing that, Kang Xiaoqiao's eyes widened and she said angrily, "Don't push your nose into my face. You even dislike it. It's good enough to have some food. Also, don't come tomorrow. I don't need you to make firewood."
Kang Xiaoqiao felt a headache now. This person was simply shameless and liked to meddle in other people's business. She really didn't provoke him. Also, from what he said, he was quite familiar with Lu Yichen. However, Lu Yichen had never mentioned it to her.
Xia Zijun was not angry when he heard that. He took a sip of water and said, "That won't do. If you want to bet, you must admit defeat. I promised to give you firewood, so I'll give you firewood."
"Oh, and these are for you."
After saying that, he took out a stack of red and green notes from his pocket and placed them in front of Kang Xiaoqiao. He said, "This is my allowance. I'll give it to you. But we agreed that this is not what we lost in a bet."
"This is my living expenses. I won't eat your money for free. I'll come over when I'm free in the afternoon and evening. I have to leave some food for my brother..."
After saying that, he got up and left. Kang Xiaoqiao saw him and quickly shouted, "Hey, take this away. I don't want your living expenses. Don't come to my house in the future. I'm not close to you."
After saying that, she grabbed the stack of tickets and wanted to give them to Xia Zijun. However, although Xia Zijun's skills were not as good as Lu Yichen's, he was more than enough to deal with Kang Xiaoqiao.
Thus, he walked around and said with a smile, "Who said we're not familiar with each other? We've already had a few meals together. It's settled then. I'll keep my word. I'm leaving."
Xia Zijun ran as fast as he could. When Kang Xiaoqiao was about to chase after him, he had already run far away. Kang Xiaoqiao was so angry that she could only stomp her feet.
This damn Xia Zijun. Why did he set his eyes on me?
Another one who paid her allowance just to eat. He was really drunk.
No way. I have to return the things to this guy tomorrow no matter what. I have to stop him from eating at my house. What will he look like? If Lu Yichen finds out about this...
Thinking of Lu Yichen, Kang Xiaoqiao could not help but shrink her neck. If he found out that there was a pretty pretty pretty gigolo who came to her house every day for a meal, with Lu Yichen's hot temper, he would definitely pull out her tendons and skin her.
Just thinking about it was scary. No, this Xia Zijun had to be chased away.
After Xia Zijun left, a faint smile appeared on his face. The wife that Lu Yichen married was not completely useless. At the very least, her cooking skills were still acceptable.
No wonder he swallowed his anger. It was just that there was such a good thing, but he actually hid it from him. Hmph!
Was this young master that easy to make? Xia Zijun felt a sense of accomplishment when he thought about how he would go to his house to get a free meal in the future and look at his increasingly angry face.
However, he completely forgot that it wasn't that Lu Yichen hadn't called him before. It was that this guy didn't dare to come over.
And Xia Zijun definitely wouldn't admit it. As he walked, he thought, don't think that this young master is here to get a free meal. I'm here to help you, Lu Yichen, watch over your cheating wife.
As he thought of this, Xia Zijun thought of that Tao Zhengze today. What's his background?
No, he had to check it out quickly.
In the evening, Xia Zijun looked at the information in his hand and frowned. Then, he whispered, "Tsk tsk, his background is not small."
...
In the evening, Kang Xiaoqiao made a simple face mask and added milk. Her efforts over the past few days were still effective. Now, her face was no longer dry. She touched it and it was wet. She had finished moisturizing it, but it was almost white.
The skin care cream she made could be prepared tomorrow. She had a good night's sleep.
