Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Naturally, they have their uses."

Then, she opened the door and said, "Why did you run out so early? Didn't your aunt forbid you from running towards me?"

Cui Huihui heard this and said with a sly smile, "It's all thanks to you. Didn't you bring me some conch shells and fried little crabs yesterday?"

"I secretly bribed my little uncle a little. Ahem, ahem, so I'm free today..."

After saying that, she was still smiling happily.

Meanwhile, Kang Xiaoqiao's forehead was full of black lines. She bribed Instructor Wang with just this little snack? This request was really low.

Kang Xiaoqiao shook her head and walked in front. As she walked, she said, "Next time, if you see that I'm not at home, don't wait at the door. Just come in and sit on the stone bench and wait."

"The sun is so big and it's so hot. In addition, your legs haven't fully recovered yet. Don't make it worse."

Hearing that, Cui Huihui chuckled and said, "Okay, then I won't be polite next time."

"By the way, Sister Kang, when are you going to rush to the sea?"

"I think it's very interesting to rush to the sea. Unfortunately, I can't go with my legs."

Kang Xiaoqiao looked at her and said, "There are still some leftovers from yesterday. I used water to feed them. I can still have a meal. I'm afraid there won't be any tomorrow. The place to rush to the sea is a little far. I can't carry such heavy things myself."

Cui Huihui's eyes lit up when she heard that. She said with a fawning look, "Sister Kang, what shall we eat today?"

Kang Xiaoqiao looked at her greedy look and said with a smile, "Let's eat oyster pancakes today. I got a lot of oysters yesterday."

Cui Huihui quickly nodded when she heard that. Sister Kang's dishes must be the best.

Then, she immediately showed her loyalty and said, "Sister Kang, although my legs are not good, my hands are still good. What can I do to help?"

Kang Xiaoqiao looked at her and thought for a moment. She could really help.

Thus, Cui Huihui's new mission appeared. It was to look at the flowers...

Yes, it was to look at the flowers. Kang Xiaoqiao had to extract the essential oil. These flowers had to exert a lot of strength and use the most primitive method of separating oil and fat. Therefore, Cui Huihui had to look at the flowers and turn the petals regularly.

When Xia Zijun came over with a spring breeze, he saw Cui Huihui sitting on a stone bench, looking at the petals in the distance while basking in the sun.

No matter where Xia Zijun went, he was definitely a cool person. Along the way, he greeted many Wilderness sisters-in-law, and now everyone knew that he came to Kang Xiaoqiao's house.

As for how those people discussed in private, he didn't even bother with them. Now that he saw Cui Huihui... He said with a smile, "Sister Xiaohui, you're so interested. This flower will wilt under the sun, right? Are you going to make a specimen? But, you can't make a specimen under the sun. Don't tell me you want to drink flower tea?"

Cui Huihui's eyes lit up when she saw Xia Zijun. She blushed and said, "Brother Zijun is here?"

"Hehe, I'm not making a specimen, nor do I want to drink flower tea. I'm the one who took the initiative to help Sister Kang look at the flowers. She said she wanted to make some essential oil. She said that it's very good and fragrant."

Xia Zijun frowned when he heard that. What was essential oil?

As a man, he really didn't know much about these things. They were all little girls' things, so he couldn't be bothered to ask, so he said, "Oh, the wild flowers have this use. Hey, she asked you to look at the flowers. Then what did she do?"

Cui Huihui heard him and said with a smile, "Sister Kang said that she..."

Before she finished speaking, Kang Xiaoqiao came out of the room. She looked at Xia Zijun with a frown and said in a bad tone, "What are you doing here?"

Kang Xiaoqiao looked down on this playboy. Not only did he like to meddle in other people's business, he also liked to cheat on his bets and flirt with women. Look at how good Cui Huihui was. She was kind and innocent, but she was fooled by him.

Humph, relying on a pretty boy to bluff and cheat everywhere. Wait for this lady to be free. She would make your face look like a black charcoal head and let you go out to deceive the little girls.

Xia Zijun saw that Kang Xiaoqiao didn't look good and didn't get angry, so he said with a smile, "Didn't we agree to give you firewood? It just so happens that I'm free today..."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Kang Xiaoqiao to say anything and directly walked to the side of the small kitchen. There were wood and axes there, and they started to crackle.

Kang Xiaoqiao's mouth twitched when she saw this. The sun was so high, and it was almost time to eat. Hmph, this guy was here to freeload, right?

What Kang Xiaoqiao said was the truth.

Ever since Xia Zijun ate the dishes cooked by Kang Xiaoqiao yesterday, he had been missing the dishes in the army canteen for the whole morning.

Kang Xiaoqiao couldn't be bothered with him. Although there was still some firewood in the house, it had been burned by Lu Yichen before he left, hmph.

She had her own ideas. Her food wasn't that delicious.

...

The situation at Kang Xiaoqiao's house was of special concern to the sisters-in-law in the Wilderness. It was one thing for Cui Huihui to go there often, but she was still a little girl. However, Xia Zijun, a man, kept coming and going to Kang Xiaoqiao's house, so it wasn't that pleasant to hear.

At this moment, Liu Haiying ran to Wang Xuehua's house and asked sneakily, "Sister-in-law Wang, what's up with Kang Xiaoqiao's little brother?"

"Unit Lu has only left for a few days, and she's already bringing a man home?"

When Wu Xiaoyan heard this, her eyes lit up as she looked at Wang Xuehua. She knew that Kang Xiaoqiao's house made delicious food every day. It was so delicious that it was killing her.

Now that there was gossip, not only Wu Xiaoyan, but the other sisters-in-law in the Wilderness were also very trusting. However, Zhao Xiulan was missing.

She did not go out these few days and stayed at home every day. Because she knew very well that some things would only get worse the more they were described. It was better to let them go. After a few days, when there was a new topic, her matters would fade away.

Although she did not go out these few days, it did not mean that she did not know what had happened. Liu Haiying, who was very trusting, would come to her house to chat with her whenever she had nothing to do. Of course, she did not forget to mock her every time.

"Sister Xiulan, you are really amazing. Those few moves of yours really came in handy."

Then, she curled her lips and said, "Did you hear that? Did you hear that? Last night, Kang Xiaoqiao's scream was so loud. I think it must have been a consummation of the marriage. How shameless of her to scream so loudly."

Liu Haiying was very direct with her words. She did not care whether Zhao Xiulan's complexion was good or not. That night, she naturally heard it. She could not help but lower her head and clench her fists.

Kang Xiaoqiao's meal was spread throughout the entire family courtyard. All the men who had eaten at Kang Xiaoqiao's restaurant came home and praised her. Now, who did not know that Kang Xiaoqiao had a good cooking skill?

Not only did she receive everyone's praise, but now that she had become a real couple with Lu Yichen, Zhao Xiulan could only swallow her bitterness.
