Tong Tiehu looked at Qiao Xiaomai and did not refuse, stretching out his hand to take the basket.
“Alright, I’ll go back and try your cooking skills.”
“You can stir fry or boil it, but before stir frying it, you’ve to first soften these noodles in hot water,” Qiao Xiaomai inford him of the cooking thod.
Tong Tiehu grunted in acknowledgnt, casually handed the basket over to Tong Sanlang who was standing behind him. His gaze swept over the mbers of the Qiao family, finally resting on Sun Junyan. “When your Qiao family split up, I was just a witness. Now, I am also a witness. 1 can’t interfere with what Xiaomai does.”
“But, if any of you make a fuss under the guise of being elders, as long as it violates the Daqi Laws, I’ll imdiately take you to the County Town to et the county magistrate.”
Upon hearing this, Sun Junyan’s face changed colors rapidly between green and white.
Tong Tiehu snorted loudly and left with big strides.
Tong Sanlang followed after him, at the sa ti signaling Qiao Dami, “Dami, co here, pick up the basket later.”
Qiao Dami responded with a sound of acknowledgent and ran over happily.
Qiao Xiaomai watched Qiao Dami’s figure, then walked towards her house. Seeing Qiao Changshun still standing at the door, she said, “Dad, don’t just stand there, let’s clean up the courtyard.”
“Let do it.” Qiao Qinghe raised his hand to rub his face, his voice full of remorse.
“No need, grandpa, you all should go back.” Qiao Xiaomai rejected his offer.
She really did not want to spend another mont with the people from the old courtyard, including Qiao Qinghe.
Qiao Qinghe looked at her in shock, sighed heavily, his face weary. He didn’t insist, instead he turned to look at Sun Junyan, his face full of disappointnt, “Let’s go ho.”
After he finished speaking, he silently walked towards his house, his once upright back now bent.
Sun Junyan took a deep breath and followed behind him.
Seeing that the head of the family and her cherished son had left, Sun’s wife could not help stomping her feet, “Six hundred wen, just giving up on six hundred wen?”
No one answered her. Qiao Changfu and others followed the footsteps of Qiao Qinghe with their heads down. Tong Tiehu, like a cold and hard stone, pressed them down so hard they didn’t dare to resist.
Qiao Xiaomai pulled Qiao Changshun into the house and “bang” ruthlessly closed the courtyard gate.
Soon, only Sun’s wife and Qiao ipan were left in front of the courtyard door.
The two of them were filthy and disheveled, covered in dust and their hair was ssy, looking very embarrassed.
After exchanging a glance, Qiao ipan’s tears fell like rain. It was over. After today’s incidents, there was no chance for her and Tong Sanlang.
Sun’s wife grumbled irritably, “What are you crying for? Let’s go ho!” After saying this, she also left cursing and swearing.
Qiao ipan sniffled a few tis, then stomped her foot and ran to catch up.
Qiao ipan and Sun’s wife were eager and angry when they ca, but left with their tails between their legs. Now, the front of Qiao Xiaomai’s house was completely quiet.
There was no one outside the gate, but the courtyard was a ss. Qiao Xiaomai sighed and began to clean up.
The courtyard was paved with green bricks, and Sun’s wife and Qiao ipan, this insidious mother-daughter duo, had touched every brick, including those in the toilet. Things were thrown all over the place, and those that should be picked up were picked up, those that should be washed were washed, and those that should be cleaned were cleaned.
Qiao Changshun silently started to work, not saying a word.
Qiao Xiaomai glanced at him and was relatively satisfied with his performance today.
His heart had softened for a mont, but compared to the past, there was definitely great progress.
However, recalling the dramatic gossip Tong Tiehu had ntioned earlier, her eyes rolled a few tis, before she finally said, “Dad, was what Grandpa Tong said about Third Uncle wanting to elope with mom true?”
