If it was done by someone who was innocent bystander, then that's possible.
As Wang Yunjuan's mind raced through these thoughts, her gaze fell upon the large bunch of grapes when her daughter lifted the lid of the basket.
"this……"
Could it be the imported goods that Jiao Niang mentioned, which were transported to the capital as tribute?
Chi Kang remained silent, while Zhong Yufeng clung to her mother's arm and said sweetly:
"Mother, my aunt is back today."
Brother Akang went down the mountain to the old house earlier, and this was given to me by my aunt.
Ah Kang said that what his aunt gave to others was just ordinary food.
All that's given to me is this.
At this point, she changed the subject, feigning ignorance, and asked:
"Mother, is this the fruit that my aunt said was being snapped up by the rich people in the city?"
Mother, didn't you and Auntie say that these things were transported to the capital as tribute?
I think these were specially left for me by my aunt.
I knew it, Mom, you still have your cousin and your aunt to be on good terms.
She only treats me well because of Brother Kang and you guys.
"Mother, my aunt gave two portions of each kind, probably so I could share some with you."
As she spoke, she looked at Chi Kang and said, "Brother Kang, go to the kitchen and get a small basket and a knife."
What are you doing with a knife?
Wang Yunjuan knew why she was carrying the basket, but she was puzzled as to why her daughter was asking Chi Kang to carry the knife.
"Mother, the peaches are so big, it's just right for the three of us to share them."
"The rest you took back, I'll let my father and brother-in-law divide it up."
Wang Yunjuan was happy that her daughter was so filial.
Of course, she also wanted to experience the extraordinary nature of this tribute.
However, after glancing at Chi Kang, she looked at her own daughter and said:
“Your aunt didn’t give you much, so you can’t just send it to your parents’ home like this.”
"I think we should do this: there are six in total. You and A-Kang, and your family and your husband's family, will each get two!"
Chi Kang really liked his mother-in-law's insightful nature, and upon hearing this, he said:
“Mother-in-law, no need. My parents live with my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law will never lack anyone else.”
As Xiaofeng said, the things we brought back today, Auntie wanted to share with you all.
After saying that, he gestured for Zhong Yufeng to cover the basket before opening the door and going to the kitchen.
When he came back again, he had put all the food in a basket.
At that time, Zhong Yufeng, who had already washed the peaches clean, couldn't bear to peel them.
She placed the peach directly on the handkerchief, then handed the knife to Wang Yunjuan.
"Mom, you cut it."
Chi Kang knew that there were still peaches in his aunt's cave, and that his wife and mother-in-law were treating them with such care just because of a single peach, so he quickly said:
"Xiaofeng, I don't like peaches. I want to eat rice right now."
You can share these peaches with your mother-in-law.
Wang Yunjuan and her daughter aren't stupid; they can easily see through the claim that they don't like peaches.
While feeling sweetness, Zhong Yufeng also subconsciously looked at her mother.
Just as Wang Yunjuan felt she hadn't chosen the wrong son-in-law, she also spoke up:
"You child, you're just a peach, what's this about liking or disliking it?"
"Since you want to eat, Mom will cut you a smaller portion."
Chi Kang didn't say anything at this moment; he had already started eating.
Wang Yunjuan didn't make a fuss; she cut him less if she asked.
Therefore, the peach flesh he was given in the end was the size of a normal small peach.
Even so, Chi Kang didn't eat it.
