Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

To Qiao Xiaomai, carrying one hundred steamed buns wasn’t a burden. A sack hung over her shoulder, and four sets of clothes lay in the basket on her back. Qiao Dami held a small basket, which contained a bowl of boiled fish and a plate of braised chicken feet. The siblings appeared at the old courtyard gate of the Qiao Family.

People in the old courtyard were having lunch. Zhu Cuiying had cut the five white steamed buns Qiao Xiaomai had given her the day before into pieces, and stir-fried them with wild vegetables in a pan, serving a spoonful to each person.

Besides the fried steamed buns, there were also coarse flour steamed buns and thin Xiaomi porridge that could serve as mirrors.

Seeing the Qiao siblings, Qiao Qinghe put down his bowl and stood up. His brows furrowed tightly, “What are you two doing here? Go back home!”

Sun Family’s matriarch was sitting at the courtyard’s entrance. Upon hearing Qiao Qinghe’s words, she dropped the large, coarse bowl in her hands and rushed over to Qiao Xiaomai, “You young girl, what’s in this bag?”

As she spoke, she took the small basket from Qiao Dami. Her movements were so abrupt that much of the broth from the boiled fish spilled out.

Seeing this, Qiao Dami silently moved behind her older sister without uttering a word.

Qiao Xiaomai set down the sack on her shoulder, “In here are steamed buns, made from white flour.”

Upon hearing this, the Sun Family matriarch’s face fell immediately, “1 asked for flour!”

Qiao Xiaomai put down the basket behind her and retorted, “You don’t want it this time and there won’t be anything next time.”

Upon hearing this, the Sun Family matriarch quickly grabbed the sack.

Although the desired result wasn’t obtained, it didn’t matter because at least something was received.

Having done so, she noticed the clothes in the basket. She only gave a slight hum instead of cursing, and said, “Wait here.”

Having said this, she turned and was about to take the basket and sack back to her house.

Qiao Qinghe came out at this moment, his face dark, and said, “Give it back to Xiaomai!”

“Give back what! Changshun has money now; what’s wrong with paying his respects to us with some white steamed buns? You are his biological father! A few white steamed buns won’t make him poor!” The matriarch of the Sun family circumvented him and entered her house.

Zhu Cuiying came over with a beaming face, “Mother, where should I put this?”

“Where to put it? Just eat it directly!” The harlot, all these are things that can’t be taken to the town to give to Sun Junyan. It’s definitely deliberate!

“Okay.” Zhu Cuiying’s eyes narrowed into slits as she laughed, seeing both fish and chicken feet, these wretches must indeed be rich!

“Grandpa, these are clothes bought for you and grandma.” Qiao Xiaomai handed the clothes to a visibly embarrassed Qiao Qinghe, “Grandma is right, these are things my father should give, so you can accept it with peace of mind.”

Her eyes were clear and her expression genuine, making Qiao Qinghe even more ashamed, “No, no, no, please take it back.”

He felt guilty.

Initially, when they settled in Anping Village, he was suffering from numerous health problems due to pent-up frustrations. At that time, it was the Sun family who supported this family, and so he always felt inferior before them.

Thus, he also neglected the upbringing of his children. By the time he paid attention, aside from Qiao Changshun and Sun Junyan, all the other children had gone astray.

He felt guilty towards the Qiao Family siblings.

However, at that time, to let Sun Junyan go to school, he tacitly accepted the Sun family’s bandit-like behavior for many years. This made his guilt towards Qiao Changshun even worse.

He had privately given aid to Zhuang Luhe, but his aid turned out to be futile.

Qiao Changsun was crippled, Zhuang Luhe had left. His second son’s family had almost broken up.

When Qiao Xiaomai pointed out that Qiao Changsun looked older than him, he was left speechless.

He had made a mistake and his guilt towards Qiao Changsun’s family deepened.

This kind of guilt made him unable to accept Qiao Xiaomai’s respect with ease..
