Chapter 18 The key word is, tender?
But when the sun set, flies were all around my clothes, but Qiao Wanqing didn't show up.
This made Yang Ailian a little uneasy. She rushed to Qiao Wanqing's room and found that her clothes and quilt were all there.
It doesn't seem like he won't come back, so why hasn't he come back yet?
Yang Ailian didn't know what she was thinking about, and she began to feel uneasy.
If she didn't come back, wouldn't all the housework fall on her head?
Thinking of the three men of the Tian family, father and son, who would not even help the person who lifted the oil bottle when it fell, she felt a little hopeless.
Can't!
Thinking of this, Yang Ailian took off her apron and rushed out the door!
"Auntie Yang, my pants..." No matter how Tian Lingshan called out, she didn't go back to wash her pants.
Yang Ailian didn't know where Qiao Wanqing would go, but she felt based on her intuition that the Qiao family was the only place Qiao Wanqing could rely on, so she ran over there.
As soon as I arrived at the front door and was about to knock, I was splashed with a basin of foot washing water by Old Mrs. Qiao, which made me feel cold all over.
The evening breeze blew, and she felt the coolness even though she was soaked.
"mom……"
"Stop, your mother lives in the back mountain. If you want to find someone, go over there!" Old Mrs. Qiao pointed to the grave in the back mountain, "But she must have turned into bones long ago. She may not respond even if you call her. If not, you can send a letter or go to look for her in person." Old Mrs. Qiao had some opinions and resentment towards Yang Ailian.
She doesn't love her only daughter, but she loves the daughter brought by a man she met while she was away.
Moreover, all the housework was left to his granddaughter. The four of them acted like old men every day, and would go out for a walk after eating.
"Mom, no matter what time it is, you are my mom!" Yang Ailian knew that she was angry, but when she thought of the endless work at home, she could only be patient and try to please her in a compromising manner.
It seemed that words were not enough to express her feelings for Old Mrs. Qiao. She pretended to hug the old lady, which scared her so much that she immediately took several steps back.
"Stop, you fat and strong man, try to strangle me to death. Now that you are here, say what you want to say quickly, and fart if you want to." In fact, even if she didn't say it, Old Mrs. Qiao knew what she was thinking.
It's just that there is no one to enslave and work at home, so her life is difficult, so she wants to come and pick up Qiao Wanqing.
At this moment, Qiao Wanqing was blocked by Aunt Feng. "Auntie, I won't go with her."
"That won't work either. Your grandma said you can't leave the kitchen until she comes back. Come, come and light the fire." Feng pulled Qiao Wanqing to cook.
"Auntie, I'm just worried that grandma will suffer!"
"Those two words have nothing to do with your grandma. You will slowly understand in the future. Look at the meat your partner sent. It's made of three layers of pork belly, just like you. It feels tender to the touch!" Feng joked as she cut the pork belly!
Qiao Wanqing: ...
When did I become on the same level as pork belly?
And the key word is, tender?
However, when she thought about the time when she followed Qin Jingming to the Qin family and how hospitable Qin's mother was, even she, who was not afraid of dealing with people, almost couldn't handle it!
As the sound of spatulas colliding rang out, Qiao Wanqing, who was concentrating on making the fire, could not hear the noise outside.
About ten minutes later, Old Mrs. Qiao walked in with a smile on her face.
"Mom, where is Xiao Yang?" When Feng saw her mother-in-law's expression, she knew she had won.
Worried that Qiao Wanqing wanted to know, he asked.
"Get lost!"
Feng: There’s no need to be so straightforward!
"Grandma, you didn't suffer any loss, did you?" Qiao Wanqing looked her up and down with some concern.
"Your mother is a coward. Even if she had ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare to show her anger to me!" said Old Mrs. Qiao proudly.
"That's right, your grandma is the best." Feng covered the pot and then started kneading the dough.
However, Mrs. Qiao refused to say anything about what she had said to Yang Ailian.
She only told Qiao Wanqing that Yang Ailian would never come to her house to look for her again.
After hearing this, Qiao Wanqing became extremely curious.
"Grandma, you don't have any leverage over my mom, do you?"
"It's not a big deal. Set the table and eat." Seeing the curious baby Qiao Wanqing looking for a solution, Old Mrs. Qiao raised her hand, gently rubbed her hair, and said lovingly.
Well, since she didn't say anything, Qiao Wanqing didn't ask any more questions.
Three days passed quickly and the engagement day arrived.
Early in the morning, Qiao Wanqing was woken up by Feng and asked to dress up properly.
At noon, Qin Jingming, accompanied by his parents and brother and sister-in-law, came to have an engagement meal. The wedding date has not been set yet.
Qin Jingming said that he would wait until the marriage report came out before choosing a date and holding the wedding banquet.
Qiao Wanqing gladly accepted this.
As expected, an accident happened.
Yang Ailian brought Tian Dashan to the door with two cans of food and a bag of snacks.
"Mom, I know that Wanqing didn't want to associate with you after the second brother left. You think it's my fault that I don't allow her. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Today is Wanqing's engagement day. I have to come here anyway. Otherwise, the second brother will blame me if he finds out." When Yang Ailian spoke, her eyes were slightly red, and the tears in her eyes seemed to be unable to fall. She looked really sad.
"Hmph!" Old Mrs. Qiao didn't believe a word of what Yang Ailian said.
"Aunt, no matter what, Wanqing should leave home when she gets married. If the second son knew, he would definitely be pleased." Tian Dashan saw that Yang Ailian had been performing for a long time and no one responded, so he began to fan the flames.
Anyway, the two of them had already discussed it at home. If no one paid attention to them, they would keep mentioning Qiao Lao Er.
Engagement is such a happy event, but mentioning death all the time will definitely make them sick.
Sending blessings today is fake, disgusting people is real.
"Guests are welcome, sit down and have something to eat together!" Just when the two of them were about to continue talking about Qiao Lao Er, Old Man Qiao spoke.
"Old man, are you crazy?" Old Mrs. Qiao was a little annoyed when her old man suddenly asked to stay for dinner.
"Listen to me." After saying these three words, Mrs. Qiao said nothing more.
Seeing the table full of dishes, Tian Dashan and his wife sat down without hesitation.
There was a table for each of men and women. We thought we could eat and drink our fill and then pack some food to take home.
Unexpectedly, from the moment they sat down, Tian Dashan and Yang Ailian were toasted in turn.
After this round, I didn't have time to eat a bite of the food, but I kept drinking glass after glass of wine.
"Burp..." Tian Dashan burped because he was full. "I don't want to drink anymore!" Tian Dashan's eyes were blurred and he waved his hands repeatedly to indicate that he couldn't drink anymore.
"Hey, today is a good day, cheers!" Boss Qiao put his hand directly on Tian Dashan's body and patted his shoulder gently, "I'll drink first to show my respect!" Then the wine glasses clinked together, Boss Qiao raised his head and drank the whole glass of wine.
…
What else could Tian Dashan do? He gritted his teeth and swallowed it in one gulp.
