Chapter 775: Chapter 775 No Need to Nitpick Chapter 775: Chapter 775 No Need to Nitpick Zhou Xiaomin laughed, “It’s nothing serious, these past few days I’ve also felt so nausea in the morning, but eating is still okay.”
Luo Qiao said with a light smile, “Third sister-in-law, when eldest sister-in-law was experiencing morning sickness, I sent her so preserved plums, which were quite effective. Later on, I’ll send so to you.”
Zhou Xiaomin touched her own flat belly, “Then thank you, Qiaoqiao.”
As the three sisters-in-law were chatting in the living room, they heard the people who had gone out to pay New Year’s visits returning. Xiao Pengrui ran in first and announced, “We’re back.”
Zhou Guifang ca out of the kitchen, “Wash your hands and get ready for the al.”
The morning al was simple, prepared with a few ready-to-eat dishes, and they boiled the dumplings that had been wrapped on New Year’s Eve the night before.
After finishing the al and cleaning up the kitchen, big sister-in-law just ca out when she saw her son rushing over, “Mom, the pockets in my clothes have gotten smaller; they can’t fit the red envelopes.”
Shang Jie laughed as she teased her son, “Then next year, Mom will sew you a big pocket.”
In the afternoon, Lu Yichen ca over, bringing with him a stack of Zhoushan beltfish, saying they had just arrived last night and he brought so over today for everyone to try.
He also brought news that Song Wenbin’s maternal family had run into trouble, and by the ti he turned over the evidence, there were already investigations underway against the Qiao Family, and it seed that the Qiao Family was going to take a fall this ti.
“Would that affect Qiao Yu in the army?” Luo Qiao asked.
Lu Yichen nodded, “It will have so impact, but luckily their branch of the family doesn’t have any issues, and they weren’t involved in those matters.”
Luo Qiao asked, “What you ant just now was that soone had already taken action against the Qiao Family before you did?”
Lu Yichen responded with a ‘hmm’, “I only found out about it later.”
Continuing, he said, “Most of the issues uncovered were done by the Qiao Family’s Third Wife. It’s certain that Qiao Yu’s branch will get sowhat entangled as well, but there shouldn’t be too much trouble.”
Lu Yichen then told Luo Qiao more about the Qiao Family’s situation. It turns out Qiao Aihong wasn’t actually Qiao Yu’s blood-related aunt but a cousin. After Qiao Yu’s grandmother had two sons, she was unable to have more children and had always wanted a sweet little girl.
Later, the third wife’s branch of the Qiao Family gave Qiao Aihong to Qiao Yu’s grandmother, and from then on, she grew up in the main branch of the Qiao Family. However, Qiao Aihong was already three years old and had mories, so she was very close to the third wife’s side of the family.
Song Zhixiong and Qiao Aihong had not been demoted last ti because the third wife’s branch of the Qiao Family had helped them out.
Luo Qiao looked at Lu Yichen, “Let’s just leave it at that. In the future, whether it’s the Qiao Family or the Song Family, neither has anything to do with us. After all, we were just strangers who briefly t.”
After they finished discussing this matter, Lu Yichen asked, “Qiaoqiao, do you have any plans for the third day of the New Year?”
Luo Qiao countered, “Why, do you have plans?”
Lu Yichen nodded, “My brother and sister-in-law called, saying that they want the family to gather at the main house on the third day.”
Luo Qiao nodded, “Okay then, I haven’t visited since getting engaged. It does seem a bit rude when I think about it.”
Lu Yichen said, “You’ve been busy with school and I’ve been busy too. My dad is rarely at ho, and Auntie Geng usually stays at her son Cui Jianhua’s place. So even if you did visit, you wouldn’t see anyone. Moreover, when we called last ti, didn’t they say no one was ho and to talk about it another ti? So there’s no need to feel any rudeness.”
Luo Qiao said, “Maybe they truly had sothing going on that day. Don’t be so hasty. Didn’t you also say before that she treated you and your siblings okay?”
Lu Yichen didn’t say more. That was before, ever since the incident of Cui Yueyue stealing his mother’s jewelry was pointed out, his attitude towards his stepmother had changed.
Luo Qiao said, “Alright, just keep interacting with them like you used to. After all, you won’t be living together in that house in the future, so there’s no need to be so serious about it.”
Luo Qiao craved for deep-fried beltfish, so she called Lu Yichen to the kitchen for a ‘date’. Lu Yichen didn’t let her get her hands dirty and asked her to sit by and talk to him while he did the washing and followed her instructions.
Seeing the interactions between the two, the Luo Family had nothing but smiles on their faces.
Almost done with the cleaning, Lu Yichen said, “Qiaoqiao, I have sothing to tell you.”
Luo Qiao instantly laughed, “If you have sothing to say, just say it. Why make it so formal?”
Lu Yichen put the washed and chopped beltfish into a bowl, “Yiting has started seeing soone.”
