Of course, Su Limin hid her feelings very well, unlike the original owner who pursued Hou Yan in a flamboyant way.
If Qiao Qiqi hadn't discovered from the original owner's memories that the original owner had once witnessed Su Limin fawning over Qin Huai, she wouldn't have found out about this.
A woman's intuition is usually quite accurate.
No matter how well Su Limin hides it, anyone who is determined will eventually discover it.
Just as Qiao Qiqi was thinking about these things, Su Limin seemed to notice her as well. She suddenly looked up at her, paused for a moment, and then her eyes instantly became smug. Upon closer inspection, there was also a hint of jealousy.
Qiao Qiqi raised an eyebrow.
Realizing that Su Limin was jealous of him because he had married Qin Huai, he returned her a smug look and then looked away.
The bus ride from town to village takes more than 20 minutes. There were significantly more people on Saturday than usual, with many standing in the middle. In addition, it's summer now, and the various smells of sweat mixed together, which, to be honest, was quite intoxicating.
Realizing that buying a bicycle was urgent, Qiao Qiqi began to make plans.
After finally making it to the village, Qiao Qiqi quickly got off the bus as soon as it stopped.
At this moment, she felt her legs were sore and weak, and her body felt sticky. She felt an indescribable discomfort.
Just as she was squatting by the roadside, breathing in the fresh air, Su Limin got off the car. She had a seat and was clearly not as disheveled as Qiao Qiqi. She walked away looking refreshed.
Qiao Qiqi was too lazy to pay attention to this woman's one-woman show. After Qiao Tianyou and Qin Guodong got out of the car, she immediately divided up the things she had just bought in town.
The meal included sponge cake, sugar, flour, oil, apples, peaches, and three pieces of pork belly. It was divided into three portions, with each of the two people taking two portions.
Qin Guodong was initially a little embarrassed, but Qiao Qiqi forcefully stuffed it into his hand, saying, "This is for your parents, you can take it back."
Qin Guodong still finds it hard to accept the fact that Qiao Qiqi has become his sister-in-law.
Of course, it wasn't that he disliked Qiao Qiqi, after all, the two had never met before in the village.
On the contrary, he really liked this sister-in-law because she gave him candy and steamed cake on their first meeting, and now she was giving him so many good things!
"Thank you, sister-in-law," Qin Guodong said softly, then picked up his things and quickly ran home.
Qiao Tianyou watched from behind, curled his lip, and said disdainfully, "Look at his pathetic appearance, he's like a little girl. I'm not going to play with him, my classmates will definitely laugh at me."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Qiao Qiqi smacked him on the back of the head again.
"Stop talking nonsense. Take the things back quickly, and let your mother stew meat for you for lunch."
Upon hearing the word "meat," Qiao Tianyou immediately forgave Qiao Qiqi for hitting him twice. "Aren't you coming home with me?"
“Now that I’m married, I should naturally go back to your brother-in-law’s house. But you can come to my house with your mother this afternoon. I have lots of delicious food at my house, and you can eat whatever you want.”
When Qiao Tianyou heard that Qiao Qiqi wasn't coming with him, he frowned slightly. He was clearly unhappy, but he deliberately said with disdain, "Who cares if you go back? You just bother me."
After saying that, he picked up his things and left.
Qiao Qiqi realized that her younger brother was a hypocrite, smiled helplessly, and quickly headed home.
When she got home, she found that Qin Huai hadn't returned yet, so she immediately started cooking dinner.
By the time the meal was ready, lunchtime had passed, and seeing that Qin Huai hadn't returned, Qiao Qiqi locked the door and went out to look for him.
Following the original owner's memories, she walked quickly towards the river.
They soon spotted Zhang Qing acting suspiciously behind a tree.
"Zhang Qing? Didn't you go fishing with Qin Huai? Where is Qin Huai?" Qiao Qiqi walked over in confusion.
When Zhang Qing saw her, he immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost.
"Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law, what brings you here?" she said, glancing towards the riverbank ahead.
Qiao Qiqi realized something was wrong and immediately walked over there.
Zhang Qing quickly ran over and blocked her way. "Sister-in-law, you're looking for my brother Qin, right? My brother Qin isn't over there."
"..."
Ha! Looking at Zhang Qing's obviously guilty expression, it would be a miracle if Qiao Qiqi believed him.
"Get out of the way!" she said coldly.
Zhang Qing was startled. Looking at Qiao Qiqi's suddenly fierce expression, he inexplicably felt that her face looked a bit like his brother Qin's.
He was most afraid of Brother Qin's dark expression, so he didn't dare to say a word.
Qiao Qiqi had already walked past him and was heading forward.
After passing several large trees, she soon saw a man and a woman standing by the river ahead.
Qin Huai's trousers were rolled up, but the legs were mostly wet and covered in river mud, making him look somewhat disheveled, though his face remained remarkably handsome.
Standing opposite him, Su Limin gazed at his face with infatuation, her expression earnest and earnest: "I'm doing this all for your own good. If you become my father's son-in-law, I guarantee you'll get the easiest job in the village, and you won't have to work so hard anymore, wouldn't that be better?"
“I just came back from town and ran into Qiao Qiqi. She bought a ton of stuff. That spendthrift girl of hers is 18 and never does any farm work. Her dad used to work himself to the bone to support the whole family, and now you’re supporting her too. You even have to work in the fields to earn work points, and that’s not enough. You have to fish during your breaks to supplement your income. Isn’t she trying to kill you?”
In contrast to Su Limin's excitement, Qin Huai remained cold and aloof, saying, "I came to catch fish myself; it has nothing to do with her."
"Isn't it because Qiao Qiqi squandered all your family's money that you had no choice but to come here? What's so great about her that makes you want to do this for her?"
Qin Huai frowned immediately when he heard Su Limin's words implying that his wife was not good enough. "My wife is good in every way!"
Seeing that Qin Huai was defending her in every word, Qiao Qiqi finally stepped over.
"Oh, isn't this Captain Su's daughter? What are you trying to do, blocking my man's way? In broad daylight, isn't it inappropriate for an unmarried woman to block a married man?"
Qin Huai was stunned when he saw Qiao Qiqi suddenly appear.
Su Limin looked embarrassed.
Even if she was arrogant, she still couldn't save face when Qiao Qiqi heard what she said to Qin Huai.
After glancing at Qin Huai with a hint of hesitation, she turned and left, feeling utterly disappointed.
As soon as she left, Qiao Qiqi went over and stared at Qin Huai, asking, "Did she confess her feelings to you before? Do you like her?"
Qin Huai's expression immediately changed, and he shouted, "No!"
But Qiao Qiqi clearly didn't believe it.
"They've already asked you to be Captain Su's son-in-law, and you dare say she hasn't confessed her feelings to you? I've seen it happen in the village before, do you think I don't know anything?"
