306 305: send something to celebrate the mid-autumn Festival, add more

Along the way, they met many familiar faces, including Qin Juan, Yang Dani, Wang Xuehua, and of course, Liu Haiying and Zhao Xiulan who didn't like Kang Xiaoqiao.

However, everyone went their own ways. They didn't even bother to greet each other when they saw each other. Now that Kang Xiaoqiao was more popular, it seemed that Zhao Xiulan and the others were more down and out, but there was nothing they could do.

Today was a rare and lively day. Almost every family came out to get cabbage, which was an important food in winter.

At this time, there was no greenhouse technology. In winter, there was ice and snow, so there was nothing to eat. Therefore, in autumn, it was crucial to stock up on winter food.

Almost every family had three large vats. One was used to hold water, and the other was used to put in large sauces. The last large vats were used to marinate pickled vegetables.

Kang Xiaoqiao and the others did not come too late. Although the line was not near the front, they were in the middle and back. Looking at the carts full of cabbages, everyone was unusually excited.

The cabbages were white, green, and each one could weigh one to two kilograms. Everyone was happy to see them. While chatting with each other, they lined up and soon arrived at Kang Xiaoqiao's side.

The army gave each family cabbages according to the rank of the men. It was about 300 kilograms to Kang Xiaoqiao's side.

The young soldier was very straightforward and neat. He was measured in a short while. Kang Xiaoqiao was also happy to see him, but when he put it aside, Kang Xiaoqiao was dumbfounded.

When she turned her head, Kang Xiaoqiao couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Everyone was fervently packing cabbage into sacks. Those with children at home came over to help. In a short while, three to four sacks were filled. Then, a military wife didn't say anything.

She picked up a corner of the sacks and carried it away. Her speed was extremely fast, and her posture was very neat.

On the other hand, Kang Xiaoqiao was empty-handed. Her hair was loose and she wore a thick sweater with a short shirt, a pair of tight pants, and a pair of white shoes. She stood there gracefully.

That slender figure was probably able to push her down with a burlap sack. She also had a pair of small hands that looked like scallions, and her nails were pink and tender. How could she look like she was working?

Everyone was busy moving cabbages from the Wang family. Only she stood foolishly in the distance. She suddenly felt very awkward.

Kang Xiaoqiao looked at the cabbages on the ground and was speechless. She thought she was only here to collect cabbages. Who knew that she would have to move them by herself? No wonder these people were dressed like this. They were all picking out dirty and tattered clothes. It turned out--

At this time, a military wife joked with Kang Xiaoqiao. "Aiyo, Sister Xiaoqiao, what are you doing? Are you waiting for your Vice-Captain Lu?"

"Are you stupid? It's obvious that she's waiting for someone. She doesn't look like she's working even though she's dressed."

"Exactly. Look, this is smoothness. It's not like us. This big sack probably pressed her down before she could resist it."

"She's doted on by men, unlike us. Forget it, forget it. Let's just get to work--"

"Um, Sister Xiaoqiao, we'll be leaving first. You wait patiently."

Kang Xiaoqiao nodded awkwardly. She wanted to leave too and go back to get the sack. However, once she left, the cabbages would be scarce and she wouldn't be able to find anyone to go with her.

Don't blame Kang Xiaoqiao for thinking too much. Honestly, no one would think that she stole something like this. It was fine if she took it, but the most important thing was to take good care of the things. This was a very important lesson that she had learned in the past few months.

In this era, everything was good. The moment it disappeared, it might disappear.

Just as Kang Xiaoqiao was feeling awkward, Kang Daqiao came over with the sack and shouted from afar, "Little sister--"

Kang Xiaoqiao was very happy to see her. Just as she was about to take over the cabbage, Kang Daqiao took the sack to the side and said, "Little sister, you don't have to do this job. I can do it--"

"Your hands are too tender. It won't look good if you hurt them."

Kang Xiaoqiao blushed when she heard that. "Sister, I can do this. Look, even Fang Fang can help. Even Yuan Yuan is so small."

Kang Daqiao firmly refused to let Kang Xiaoqiao do it. "I don't care about others, but little sister, you can't. With big sister here, you don't have to do anything. Be obedient and stand further away. You'll get your clothes dirty."

Uh...

Kang Xiaoqiao wiped the non-existent cold sweat on her forehead. Please, can you not do this? She was not a child anymore. Although the original owner was indeed like this, almost all the work was done by Kang Daqiao herself, but Kang Xiaoqiao could not do it. She could not stand this.

However, with Kang Daqiao around, she couldn't reach out at all.

Looking at her neatly putting the cabbages into the sack one by one, she didn't pay any attention at all. Kang Xiaoqiao's heart ached. "Sis, slow down. Be careful, don't break your hand. Aiya, it's just been reared a little. If this goes on, it'll definitely peel off. Forget it, I'll go look for Lu Yichen."

However, before she could leave, Kang Daqiao stopped her. "How can I trouble brother-in-law with such a small task?"

"Just wait here obediently. Also, keep an eye on the things. I'll be back in a while."

After saying that, she carried the big sack and turned to leave, scaring Kang Xiaoqiao so much that her face turned pale. "Big sister, aiya, slow down, slow down."

When Kang Xiaoqiao said that, the people around her laughed again. Meanwhile, Kang Xiaoqiao blushed a little. However, she had never done such a task before. Shouldn't men help her with such a heavy task?

This woman was inferior to men in terms of strength. Why didn't the people here know how to be flexible? Say a few good words to a man, cook some small dishes, and it would definitely be settled!

In this era where women could hold up half the sky, Kang Xiaoqiao's thoughts were absolutely not desirable. The women nowadays wanted nothing more than to swing a sledgehammer and smash iron, just to prove that they could do it. If they asked a man for help, they would be laughed at.

This was also the reason why Kang Daqiao did not let Kang Xiaoqiao go to Lu Yichen.

However, Kang Xiaoqiao watched Kang Daqiao work, and she could not bear to watch.

Therefore, Kang Xiaoqiao borrowed a big basket from the person beside her and reached out to grab a cabbage. It weighed more than two catties and was very heavy and cold to the touch. She needed both hands to hold it firmly and then put it into the basket.

After filling it up, she reminded the people around her to keep an eye on it. Then, she lifted it up, lifted it up--

She lifted it up after a long time. Whew... It was so heavy--

Kang Xiaoqiao's appearance made the people around her laugh. Kang Xiaoqiao was so tired that she laughed while panting. "Sisters-in-law, don't laugh at me. I'll train slowly and I'll regain my strength."

After saying that, she walked forward with difficulty step by step. However, before she had walked far, a man who was emitting cold air appeared in front of her. He frowned and said coldly, "Who told you to do this?"
