Jiang Xiaoyan immediately unfolded the silk scarf she had bought in front of Lin Qingyan.

"Third sister-in-law, look at this, do you like it?"

"I love so much."

"That's wonderful." Jiang Xiaoyan stopped crying, stuffed the silk scarf into Lin Qingyan's hand, and suddenly laughed again, "It seems that Second Sister-in-law really didn't make a mistake in buying things. Third Sister-in-law, I'm glad you like it."

"Yes, I like it very much."

He Hongmei was now in an awkward position. She hadn't expected that Jiang Xiaoyan could win Lin Qingyan's heart with just a tattered silk scarf. Lin Qingyan had just given her a watch, which she herself hadn't even wanted to accept.

What should she do now?

Should I go back and give the silk scarf I bought to Lin Qingyan again, or should I just give up and not give Lin Qingyan anything at all?

No, she absolutely cannot be inferior to Jiang Xiaoyan.

So she went back to her room, took out a silk handkerchief that was a different color from Jiang Xiaoyan's, wiped away her tears, and handed it to Lin Qingyan.

"Third sister-in-law, I'm so sorry. I was hoping everyone would be happy on your first day at our house. I was just trying to make you happy, but I ended up doing something wrong."

Seeing that she was pretending to be innocent again, Jiang Xiaoyan immediately retorted, "What good intentions do you have? You make it sound nice, but I think you have no good intentions at all."

He Hongmei cried even louder, "Xiaoyan, if you feel upset about what your sister-in-law did, I'll apologize to you, and we'll let this matter go, okay?"

"If you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have been so reckless just now."

Lu Zhengqing tugged at Jiang Xiaoyan, "Sister-in-law has already realized her mistake. We're all family, so don't be so unforgiving."

Seeing that He Hongmei was about to say something, Lin Qingyan quickly took the silk scarf from her hand.

"Thank you so much, sister-in-law. I really like this scarf too."

Mother Lu called He Hongmei and Jiang Xiaoyan, "You two have energy to argue, why don't you come and cook with me?"

"Okay, okay, Mom."

The two of them obediently went to the kitchen to help.

Mother Lu walked up to Lin Qingyan and said, "Qingyan, look, it's only your first day at home, and the house is a mess. Don't worry, I'll train them."

"Mom, it's okay." Anyway, she's leaving in a couple of days.

Those two weren't deliberately picking on her; if they were, she had plenty of ways to deal with them.

Lunchtime finally arrived, and the table was much quieter than before. He Hongmei had prepared a whole bunch of compliments for Lin Qingyan, but she stopped talking about it because of what had just happened.

Fortunately, Mr. and Mrs. Lu were good at livening up the atmosphere, chatting about interesting things that happened outside at the dinner table, so the atmosphere wasn't too awkward throughout the meal.

Tomorrow is the official time to receive the award. After dinner, Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting rested for a while, and then Lin Qingyan wanted to visit her grandmother.

"Zhengting, I'm going to see my mother-in-law. Come with me."

The man smiled and said, "Of course, I'm your bodyguard."

Lin Qingyan grabbed his collar and led him outside, saying, "Let's go, my bodyguard."

Before they even left the room, Lin Qingyan let go of him. They could flirt and tease each other however they wanted in their own room, but they couldn't let anyone else see them.

They told Mr. and Mrs. Lu, and then went to the Dong family's house.

Dong Yue and Xu Xinning arrived home this morning because they left the military region early.

When Dong Yue returned and learned that Granny Lin was missing, he went to look for her without even taking a break.

When Xu Xinning learned that it was her mother's doing, that she had deliberately made Granny Lin disappear, she felt a little relieved.

Therefore, even if Lin Qingyan came, she would not be able to see Granny Lin.

She pretended to follow Dong Yue out to look for Granny Lin, but since Dong Yue hadn't found Granny Lin, she certainly wouldn't.
