Chapter 421 Brainwashed
After greeting the elders, Kang Mingyuan took Qiao Mo to greet his peers and presented his own gifts.
Since the Kang elder and his wife and the Kang younger and his wife were not present, Qiao Mo gave the gifts for them to their sons and asked them to pass them on.
Finally, the younger generation saluted Qiao Mo, and Qiao Mo gave each of them a red envelope.
After the tea-offering and recognition ceremony, there was nothing else to do, so everyone just sat together and chatted.
Except for Kang Weimin and Kang Mingyuan who are in Donghai City, even the closest Kang Zhiyuan is in a field unit dozens of miles away and rarely has the opportunity to go home. The others are scattered all over the place and it is even harder for them to come back, let alone get together.
This time is the most complete family member they have since they came back from the countryside. Although more than half of them have not returned yet, Mr. and Mrs. Kang are very happy to have so many grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law come back and spend the New Year with them.
"Seventh brother's wife, I heard that you have started translating novels? Is the income from translation very high?" Hu Zhen asked Qiao Mo.
"In order to train my hands-on ability, my godmother would get some simpler popular novels from the publishing house for me to translate every once in a while. As for the income, it's pretty good, probably about the same as working." Qiao Mo nodded with a smile.
"That's amazing. You can translate novels in your sophomore year." Yang Xin gave her a thumbs up. In her mind, anyone who can be a translator is a great talent.
"My seventh brother's sister-in-law started translating novels in her freshman year. Not only that, she also translates materials for foreign trade companies and some units. Although she is a student, her income is no less than ours." Wang Meilan was afraid that she could not hit them hard enough, so she added another blow.
"Sister-in-law is amazing. Did you start learning foreign languages with your godmother very early?" someone asked curiously.
"Well, I started studying with my godparents not long after I met them. But they live quite far away, so I can't ask them for advice often. I only learned some basic knowledge." Qiao Mo said with a smile.
"It's just bad luck, there's nothing to be proud of." Ji Ying said hatefully.
"Ji Ying, if you don't know how to speak, don't speak. No one thinks you are dumb." Kang Weimin didn't expect her to say such a depressing thing at this time. She is really hopeless.
"She is not unlucky, but it is a case of good fortune. If she was not kind-hearted and helped Professor Wu and his wife under such difficult conditions, others would not teach her no matter how knowledgeable they were." Old Mrs. Kang also looked at her coldly. She was extremely disappointed with this daughter-in-law. If she had not given birth to four children for the Kang family, she would have kicked her out of the house long ago.
"It's also the result of my sister-in-law's hard work." Kang Zhiyuan asked Qiao Mo to translate something before, and knowing Qiao Mo's level, he admired her even more.
While teaching Ji Ying a lesson, Mrs. Kang also praised Qiao Mo. Everyone tacitly changed the topic and talked about work and study. Everyone chatted lively and happily, and had lunch in the main house before going back to their rooms.
Mr. and Mrs. Kang both have the habit of taking a nap. After their children and grandchildren come to rest, they also return to their bedroom.
"Old man, do you think Ji Ying's making things difficult for Qiao Mo will affect her relationship with Mingyuan?" The old lady was worried.
"Mingyuan is a man of strategy, and Qiao Mo is not someone who cannot tell right from wrong. She won't vent her anger on Mingyuan." The old man comforted her.
