The next morning, Lu Jiang picked two jars of canned fruit and a can of luncheon meat from his home. He then borrowed a mule cart from the brigade, had a simple breakfast, and set off for Caohu Brigade with Feng Qingxue.
Second aunt Feng cradled her grandson, with Qingyun by her side, waiting at the intersection from early on.
Spotting the couple approaching in the distance on the mule cart, Second aunt Feng let out a smile, while Feng Qingyun, calling out "Sister, Brother-in-law," started to run towards them even before they arrived.
Lu Jiang quickly pulled the reins to stop the mule.
"Slow down! What if the mule kicks you?" Feng Qingxue chided her as she descended from the cart, checking her sister up and down. Her sister was unharmed and as plump and adorable as before she got married, Feng Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief.
