"What's going on?" Qiao Qiqi looked down, opened the cloth bag in her arms, and found a roll of toilet paper, a new menstrual belt, and even a new pair of women's underwear.
Upon confirming that these items were definitely not bought by Qin Huai while he was in town, Qiao Qiqi frowned immediately.
Where did this man get all this stuff?
With these questions in mind, she put her things in the house and went to ask Qin Huai, but the man refused to say anything.
With a flushed face, she said, "Here, just use it. Why ask so many questions?"
How could Qiao Qiqi not ask?
Two of the three items are women's intimate items, and there's nowhere to buy them in this village. It's highly suspicious that Qin Huai brought these two items.
He couldn't possibly have gone back to his own family home to ask for it, could he?
"Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I don't need to." Qiao Qiqi followed behind Qin Huai, dawdling for a long time, but the man remained silent.
After making the bed, he pushed Qiao Qiqi into the room and said, "You, you sleep a little longer. I'll wake you up after I've finished tidying up and making dinner."
After saying that, he picked up the quilt and ran out.
Qiao Qiqi tried to follow him out, but the door slammed shut behind her.
Turning her head to look at the quilt folded in half and spread on the kang, and then thinking of the mattress Qin Huai had taken out, Qiao Qiqi finally belatedly realized that last night was her first time, and that mattress must be dirty...
Realizing that Qin Huai had taken the baby out to wash, Qiao Qiqi once again marveled at the man's thoughtfulness.
Unexpectedly, despite his clumsy appearance, he was very considerate of her feelings when doing things.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qiqi felt a warm feeling in her heart.
Seeing that she hadn't chosen the wrong man, and had found one who knew how to cherish his wife, Qiao Qiqi obediently climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed).
Even if she had the thickest skin, she wouldn't dare go out at this time.
Besides, her back was really sore and her lower abdomen was heavy and uncomfortable, so she couldn't wash the sheets and just let Qin Huai do it.
Since it was his doing, he has to clean up the mess!
Despite saying that, once she lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed), Qiao Qiqi immediately thought that tonight was her wedding night, which she had been looking forward to all day.
I was originally thinking about doing *that* kind of thing, but now, not only has my wish been dashed, but I also have to endure this back pain.
Why is her life so miserable!
Qiao Qiqi sighed deeply and quickly drifted off to sleep again.
I don't know how long I slept, but I was woken up by noise this time.
The sound seemed to be coming from the courtyard.
Qiao Qiqi opened her eyes and just then heard someone in the courtyard say, "I told you last year that your quilt needed to be changed, but you wouldn't change it no matter what. Why did you suddenly decide to change it today?"
"You said you'd change it, but you didn't even bother to pick a color that wouldn't get dirty. You bought two such bright red pieces of fabric, they look like they're for a wedding. As a result, people have been asking me all the way here if there's a happy occasion at home. When I said no, they even joked that my son is looking for a wife..."
As Wang Guihua spoke, she looked at her son with a worried expression.
If he really missed his wife, he would be happy to make ten quilts, let alone two.
Unfortunately, his son is a blockhead; all he cares about is work, and he has no interest in finding a wife.
I've brought it up several times in the past two years, but he's always interrupted me, saying he's not interested.
"If you're going to make a quilt, why are you in such a hurry? It has to be finished before dark, and you had to drag me back from the field to make it for you right away. It made me miss two days of work today."
Wang Guihua wasn't really upset about losing those two work points; she just felt that her son's actions today were a bit puzzling and different from usual.
Qin Huai carried the prepared bedding over, and hesitated as he glanced into the room, facing his mother's nagging.
Since he didn't know what Qiao Qiqi was thinking, he decided not to say anything for the time being.
So he said to Wang Guihua, "Mother, you go back first, I..."
"Qin Huai, who are you talking to? Is someone from home?" Qiao Qiqi's voice suddenly rang out from inside the house.
oops!
Wang Guihua's eyes widened instantly.
She was short and plump, a particularly cheerful round-faced middle-aged woman. She had originally thought her son just didn't know how to choose fabrics, but when she heard a girl's voice coming from her son's room, she was so happy that she almost fainted.
She quickly grabbed her son's hand and asked, "Son, what... what's going on?"
Qin Huai: "..."
Seeing that Qiao Qiqi had spoken, he knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he said to Wang Guihua, "Mother, please wait here for a moment."
As he spoke, he took the blanket and went into the house first.
As soon as he entered, he met Qiao Qiqi's questioning gaze. "Who are you talking to?"
Qin Huai glanced at her hesitantly, then put the quilt on the kang before saying, "My mother has arrived."
"ah?"
Upon hearing that her mother-in-law had arrived, Qiao Qiqi quickly got out of bed, straightened her clothes, and asked rapidly, "Should I go out with you to take a look? Look, I haven't prepared anything, and I just woke up. Are my clothes wrinkled?"
It was rare for Qin Huai to see her so nervous.
A thought crossed my mind.
He glanced down at her white shirt and shook his head. "The clothes are fine."
"What about your hair? Is it messy?" Qiao Qiqi asked nervously as she smoothed her hair.
The two were standing quite close, and Qin Huai's Adam's apple bobbed.
His gaze fell on her hair, noticing two strands standing up on top of her head. He hesitated for a moment, raised his hand to touch them, but then stopped and pointed at them.
"Your hair is sticking up here, can you press it down?"
Qiao Qiqi leaned her head closer and said, "I can't see, can you help me cover it up?"
Qin Huai: "..."
Sensing that the two of them were getting closer, he subconsciously took a step back.
After hesitating for a moment, he stretched his hand forward, pressed it down quickly, and then pulled it back.
However, that single hair was a bit stubborn and immediately stood up again.
Qin Huai frowned and quickly reached out to press down again.
Good, this time it has finally been suppressed.
"All done." He breathed a sigh of relief.
A sly glint flashed across Qiao Qiqi's eyes, but when she looked up, her eyes had regained their brightness. "Then let's hurry out, so as not to keep... Mother waiting."
As the two came out of the house, Wang Guihua was staring wide-eyed out of the yard.
Upon seeing that the person who came out was Qiao Qiqi, her already large eyes widened even more. Since they lived in the same village, Wang Guihua naturally recognized Qiao Qiqi, but...
Everyone knows that Qiao Qiqi is in love with Hou Zhiqing, who came from the city!
So, what's the situation now?
While Wang Guihua was staring at Qiao Qiqi, she was also looking at her.
Qiao Qiqi hadn't known who her mother-in-law was when Qin Huai mentioned her before, but now that she saw her, the original owner's memories immediately surfaced in her mind.
