265 264: playing around

Lu Yichen entered the courtyard happily. When Kang Daqiao saw him, she immediately smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, you're back. There's some cold water on the table. Drink some water first. The food will be ready in a while."

Lu Yichen nodded his head steadily. Although this sister-in-law of his was a complete third wheel at home, she was still a very good person.

Kang Daqiao couldn't be more satisfied with this brother-in-law. Such a good person couldn't be found even with a lantern. Moreover, her little sister had a stubborn temper. What if she got angry and ran away?

Therefore, when she saw her little sister talking to her brother-in-law like that, her heart almost jumped to her throat. Which family's wife dared to be so arrogant? Wasn't she asking for a beating?

Fortunately, although her brother-in-law looked cold, he was a cultured person. Not only did he not make a move, he didn't even blame her. No, when she had time, she had to talk to her little sister properly.

If Kang Xiaoqiao knew her sister's thoughts, she would spit out a mouthful of blood. She was young, beautiful, and knowledgeable. Where could he find a wife who could go up the hall and down the kitchen?

Why would he, Lu Yichen, hang himself on a crooked tree?

However, Kang Daqiao could not be blamed for this. Her horizons were limited. In the world she lived in, Lu Yichen was already a very good person. Even in her dreams, she could not dream of such a good man as her brother-in-law.

When Lu Yichen entered the courtyard, Kang Xiaoqiao was still sitting on the small stool. She did not say a word and did not even make a sound.

Lu Yichen was not angry. In his heart, he thought happily that this girl had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Therefore, he listened to his sister-in-law's words and sat on the stone stool to pour himself a cup of water.

The dishes were soon ready. Kang Xiaoqiao was indeed a little expert in the kitchen. It didn't take long for a big harvest to be ready. Moreover, she had also stir-fried a pot of meat, a garlic oil-wheat dish, a pot of flat pepper, and a home-cooked cold dish.

Lu Yichen's face instantly warmed up when he saw so many dishes. His eyes were full of smiles as he looked at Kang Xiaoqiao. However, Kang Xiaoqiao was still expressionless.

Lu Yichen thought to himself, 'Just keep pretending. Let's see how long you can keep pretending. This woman's heart is really fickle. Sigh... Looking at the table full of dishes, everything is ready except for chopsticks. There are so many good dishes. It would be even more beautiful if I could drink some wine.'

Kang Daqiao would not be on the table. She was used to eating alone. Even if Kang Xiaoqiao was unwilling, there was only the two of them eating on the stone table.

Soon, Kang Xiaoqiao brought the bowls and chopsticks and prepared the rice.

Seeing this, Lu Yichen frowned. This person had already handed him a ladder. He had to build a ladder no matter what. He was a gentleman, so he would not bother with a little woman like her.

Therefore, he cleared his throat and said, "This dish is not bad."

Kang Xiaoqiao looked at him and did not know what to say. She continued to eat. Lu Yichen hit a soft nail and frowned again. However, he was really hungry. During the disaster relief period, it was already good enough to have a meal, not to mention a good dish.

Therefore, he picked up his chopsticks and went to pick up the meat. As he picked up the meat, he said, "It's still better at home. These days, I didn't have a hot meal--"

But halfway through, he could not continue because his chopsticks were pressed by Kang Xiaoqiao. Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao with a puzzled look.

Kang Xiaoqiao didn't disappoint him. She lifted her eyelids and said, "Then, your dishes are over there--"

What? =O=

Lu Yichen looked at the dishes beside him with a dumbfounded expression. They were all green, really all green--

Then, he looked at Kang Xiaoqiao. "What does this mean?"

Seeing this, Kang Xiaoqiao immediately placed the piece of meat he wanted to pick into her bowl and said indifferently, "What do you mean? Your good Doctor Zhao has repeatedly reminded you that you are now an injured patient and you can not eat oily and spicy food--"

"Then -- all of it is yours. It will definitely be light enough. Don't worry."

After saying that, Kang Xiaoqiao put the piece of meat into her mouth and chewed slowly. Then, she sighed. "Hmm, it's really not bad. It's fragrant, tender, delicious, fat but not greasy, thin but not too thin, fragrant--"

Then, she picked up another piece of meat from the pot and ate it with great relish. The garlic, oil, wheat, green, and fried pepper beside Lu Yichen were all green peppers, green, home-style cold dishes, green, and a bumper harvest. There were beans, beans, and potatoes, but there was no meat.

There were a lot of dishes, but Lu Yichen didn't have any appetite when he looked at them. He looked at the two dishes beside Kang Xiaoqiao. The meat dishes were all over her body, and then at Kang Xiaoqiao's delicious food.

It was rare for him to lose his temper. He put his chopsticks on the table and stared at Kang Xiaoqiao with a bitter expression. "I'm a patient. How can you treat a patient like this?"

Kang Xiaoqiao heard him and said with a confused look, "I know. That's why I specially made these for you."

"I followed your attending physician, Zhao Yingying, and Doctor Zhao's instructions. I made so many dishes for you. Why? Are you not satisfied?"

"Then go find her and let her cook for you--"

When Lu Yichen heard this, his face turned black. "Kang Xiaoqiao."

When Kang Xiaoqiao heard this, she covered her ears and said impatiently, "Aiya, why are you so loud? I can hear you. I'm not deaf."

"You can eat it or not--"

Then, she picked up a piece of meat and ate it. Lu Yichen's face turned even darker, but the saliva in his mouth kept flowing out.

So, he became even angrier. This woman was really fickle-minded--

Of course, Lu Yichen wouldn't be obedient. So, he reached out his chopsticks to pick up the meat, but Kang Xiaoqiao was much faster than him.

She immediately picked up the plate and said with a serious face, "What are you doing? Your dishes are over there. Are you stupid?"

This time, Lu Yichen was really angry. This Kang Xiaoqiao was doing it on purpose. She was deliberately taking revenge for him not showing his stand on her side at that time.

He was an upright military officer, but now, he was being bullied by someone else. If word got out, he would lose a lot of face.

Yes, Zhao Yingying did a lot of bad things to Kang Xiaoqiao, but wasn't he there? Which time did she succeed?

This time, she plotted against the Kang family. If it wasn't for the fact that the Kang family was insatiable and greedy, afraid that the Wang family would ask them for the dowry money, why would they be willing to come? Forcing Kang Daqiao was also done by the Kang family themselves.

In the end, wasn't it the Kang family's own problem?

Zhao Yingying was wrong and had a vicious mind, but she had already received the punishment she deserved. What was more painful than losing the pursuit of her heart's desire?

Moreover, he was a man. Was he going to help her humiliate a little girl? It was not the conduct of a gentleman to make a little girl embarrassed and lose face.

A girl could make a scene however she wanted. However, he was a man and would not do such a thing.
