205 204: When everything is ready, I'll update and ask for a monthly pass

Machine Translation

At this time, Second Aunt Wu Xiumei rolled her eyes and said with a devilish tone, "Aiyo, this is really a big show. You have to make people wait for a ton of meals. I've never seen a new wife who can put on such a show."

Kang Xiaoqiao pretended not to hear her and sat beside the old lady. "Grandma, I'm sorry to have made everyone wait for so long."

The old lady immediately pulled Kang Xiaoqiao's hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Everyone has just been served. Aiyo, what's wrong with this hand?"

Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and replied, "It's nothing. I accidentally cut it. Yunshu has already helped me stop the bleeding."

"And Xiaozhi is really a well-behaved child. He makes people like him."

When the old lady heard this, she smiled even more inconspicuously and said, "If you like children, then give birth to one yourself. However, you have to eat more rice. This little body is too thin."

"Come, grandma will give you some food."

As soon as the old lady said this, the others covered their mouths and laughed. Kang Xiaoqiao was so embarrassed that her face was a little red. She lowered her head and did not say anything. In fact, this was all an act, but the others did not know.

Everyone laughed. Only Second Aunt Wu Xiumei snorted and rolled her eyes as she continued to eat. Her two daughters were also venting their anger on her. The people in the third room laughed very reluctantly, especially Third Aunt Zhang Ting, whose head was lower than Kang Xiaoqiao's. The inferiority complex of having no son followed her like a shadow.

First Aunt Liu Fengxia was very gratified. This child was not bad. She had just finished talking to her in the morning, and now she was obedient. This child was worth teaching.

Only Lu Yichen knew that Kang Xiaoqiao was putting on an act. Thinking of her resistance every time, Lu Yichen could not help but sink his face. Could it be that she did not want to have children with him?

Kang Xiaoqiao did not know what others thought. After a meal, Kang Xiaoqiao returned to her room. At the same time, her niece Xia Yunshu was with her.

She needed help with what she wanted to do. Lu Yichen wanted to talk to her, but he had other things to do. After talking to his uncles in the morning, he felt that his time was even more pressing. He didn't have time to be in a romantic relationship.

Kang Xiaoqiao didn't plan to pay attention to him. Now that she wanted to start her own business, she needed more samples. Although she had some before she came, it was still far from enough.

Kang Xiaoqiao processed the powder in her hand for an afternoon and finally finished it. Next, it was the problem of seasoning.

At this time, there was no special place to plant fresh flowers, so she still had to go up the mountain. Kang Xiaoqiao thought about it and went to the living room. She didn't want to beg Lu Yichen anymore, so she asked her good friend for help.

When Cui Huihui received the call, she was overjoyed.

"Sister Kang, you came to the provincial capital? When did you come? Where are you living now? I'm going to look for you. I miss you so much."

Faced with this girl's pile of questions, Kang Xiaoqiao felt very helpless. She smiled and shook her head. "You have so many questions. I'm at a relative's house now. Are you free tomorrow?"

When Cui Huihui heard that, she immediately said, "Yes, of course. You're new to the provincial capital and aren't familiar with it. I'll look for you tomorrow."

Kang Xiaoqiao nodded and said, "Yes, you can. However, it's best if you can get a car over. We're going into the mountains."

Cui huihui frowned. "Into the mountains? What are we going into the mountains for? Sister Kang, there are many fun places in the provincial capital. How nice would it be if I brought you there? What's so fun about going into the mountains? Haven't you been there enough when you were in the army?"

Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what I do? I went to the big pharmacy this morning to buy a lot of powder. The powder here is more complete, so I want to make more. You know."

Cui Huihui heard this and immediately said, "I know, I know. Oh, right, Sister Kang, can I invite the person I introduced to you last time to come with me? He also said that he met someone from your army on the way back. Aiyo, it can't be you guys, right?"

Kang Xiaoqiao touched her forehead and said, "Yes, it's indeed us. However, the partner of the person you introduced didn't have a good time with me. Moreover, it's not suitable to talk about cooperation tomorrow. Let's meet another day."

Cui Huihui frowned when she heard that. "There's such a thing? I've never heard of it. However, I'll listen to you. I'll see you tomorrow morning."

After Kang Xiaoqiao hung up the phone, Xia Yunshu brought some tea over and said, "Little aunt, are you going into the mountains tomorrow? Can I go with you?"

Kang Xiaoqiao looked at her hopeful expression and said with a smile, "As long as aunt and cousin-in-law let you go, you can go with me."

Xia Yunshu's face immediately looked as if there was an oil bottle hanging on it. "Ah?"

Then, she said pitifully, "Little aunt, I want to go with you. Just take me with you. If I go and say it, they will definitely not agree. Little aunt, little aunt..."

Kang Xiaoqiao really could not do anything about her. This little girl was only five years younger than her. She really could not bring herself to call her little aunt.

Kang Xiaoqiao said helplessly, "Okay, okay. Don't panic. I will try to mention it to aunt and cousin-in-law. Whether it will work or not, that is not certain."

Xia Yunshu was delighted when she heard that. With little aunt helping her to persuade her, there was a high chance that it would work.

After agreeing on a time, Kang Xiaoqiao had to prepare the supplies for tomorrow's trip to the mountains. At the same time, using the excuse of teaching Xia Yunshu how to make snacks, the two of them worked in the kitchen for more than two hours until it was almost time to cook dinner.

Most of the time, it was under Kang Xiaoqiao's command, while Xia Yunshu did it. The reason was very simple. Kang Xiaoqiao's hand was broken, so naturally, it could not get wet. During this time, the nanny also came to help. Therefore, aunt Liu Fengxia was very clear about what the two of them did in the kitchen.

Dinner went very smoothly. Soon, it was bedtime. Lu Yichen held the medicine in his hand and pushed the door open. To be honest, he didn't expect Kang Xiaoqiao to lose her temper because of a few broken utensils. This was the first time he saw Kang Xiaoqiao so sad and cold.

It wasn't that she had never caused trouble before, but it had never made him so nervous. It was just a few glassware, not important things.

However, looking at Kang Xiaoqiao's cold and stubborn face, Lu Yichen felt for the first time that he might have done something wrong. He hadn't had the chance during the day, so now was the time to talk to her.

However, the moment the door opened, Lu Yichen froze on the spot and looked around. Where was Kang Xiaoqiao? Where did this girl go?

At this moment, Kang Xiaoqiao was hugging the blanket in Xia Yunshu's room. With a gentle face, she said, "Yunshu, let's sleep together today. I've already mentioned it to aunt and cousin-in-law. They've allowed you to go with me."

Xia Yunshu was initially wondering why her youngest aunt came to sleep in her room. Now, she had no other thoughts. She happily ran down from the bed barefoot and hugged Kang Xiaoqiao's blanket. "Youngest aunt, come quickly. Let's sleep on the same bed."
