Chapter 335

Grandma Qin thought of the Cao family in the backyard.

Cao Jun's eldest son had a partner in the military and brought her home a few days ago. Cao Jun's wife and mother said behind her back that she didn't dare to pick up food while eating and didn't dare to speak loudly, yet she had strong self-esteem; if they gave her a slightly cold face, the girl would shed tears.

The result was that Cao Jun's eldest son had to take her away early.

In her opinion.

The problem lay mostly with Old Lady Cao and her daughter-in-law.

Regardless of the girl's character, if she went to the man's house to eat and ate and drank heartily, wouldn't they say she was like a starving ghost?

If she spoke loudly, wouldn't they say she had no upbringing?

In any case, in one sentence, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't like that girl. Naturally, everything about her was an eyesore.

But at this moment, Grandma Qin was gazing at the girl in front of her.

Bright eyes and white teeth, calm and elegant, especially when she smiled with her eyes curved, one look made one feel happy.

She suddenly thought, with a girl like this, even if she went to the Cao family, they wouldn't dare to be picky or give her a cold face, right?

Oh my, this temperament and appearance are simply a perfect match for Hengzhi.

She kept saying good, good, good.

She enthusiastically greeted Lu Qiaoge to sit down quickly and winked at her daughter-in-law, who was standing, telling her to come over quickly and talk to the girl.

Bai Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief; she was happy with her mother-in-law's attitude.

Lu Qiaoge truly felt the kindness and joy the Qin family had for her.

She scanned the living room calmly.

There weren't many Qin family members today.

Qin Hengzhi's grandparents, parents, Secretary Song, and the nanny, Auntie Guo.

But actually, nowadays, one cannot call them a nanny; it's either sister, auntie, or something similar, just like Sun Qin's current position is Director He's life secretary.

Qin Lao had two sons and one daughter. Qin Feng was the eldest son, and there was another son named Qin Lang who lived in another compound.

The daughter's name was Qin Min, the youngest in the family.

Qin Feng and his wife Bai Jinyan had one son and one daughter. Qin Hengzhi's sister's name was Qin Ruixue; Lu Qiaoge had heard Qin Hengzhi mention his eldest sister, but only once.

After Lu Qiaoge found out, she never told anyone else.

This year, twenty-eight-year-old Qin Ruixue had fallen in love with a singer named Gu Jingwen in the troupe after watching a performance, but the other party had a fiancée and was about to get married.

Although Gu Jingwen's family background wasn't as good as the Qin family's, it wasn't much worse; they were in the railway system and could be considered old family friends with the Qin family.

But in fact, the other party's fiancée's family wasn't an ordinary family either.

However, Qin Ruixue had fallen for Gu Jingwen and must have been madly in love. According to Qin Hengzhi, not only did the Gu family disagree, but the Qin family also disagreed, and they made their attitude clear to both the Gu family and the woman's family, saying they would restrain and discipline Qin Ruixue. But man proposes, God disposes; Qin Ruixue really got her wish and married Gu Jingwen.

Qin Hengzhi didn't go into details, but Lu Qiaoge guessed how Qin Ruixue had schemed against Gu Jingwen.

In this era, you didn't need to "cook raw rice into cooked rice"; as long as you were hugging without clothes, it would basically be a done deal.

This Eldest Sister Qin must have been a fan of Gu Jingwen, the extreme type.

Less than a month after the wedding, Gu Jingwen signed up to support the construction of the Feizhou Railway.

That was the railway that crossed the Great Rift Valley to connect the two countries.

It would be completed next year, and Gu Jingwen stopped singing and became an ordinary worker.

What he was like now, Qin Hengzhi didn't say, and Lu Qiaoge didn't ask.

The reason Lu Qiaoge thought of Eldest Sister Qin was because she rarely returned to her maiden home, but she had come today and was walking here hand-in-hand with Cao Lanzhu.

Little Cangcang had told Lu Qiaoge this.

Little Cangcang didn't know Qin Ruixue, but it knew Cao Lanzhu.

Lu Qiaoge glanced outside the window indifferently and then withdrew her gaze.

She told Little Cangcang in her heart not to worry; Cao Lanzhu was actually very smart and wouldn't be stupid enough to come and cause trouble at this time.

As for Qin Ruixue, Lu Qiaoge didn't take her to heart at all.

A good hand of cards played into a mess.

Not worth the brainpower to ponder over.

Lu Qiaoge took the green tea with a smile, moistened her mouth, and placed it on the coffee table.

Grandma Qin on the other side winked at her daughter-in-law again. Bai Jinyan had wanted to wait until things calmed down or after the meal to take it out, after all, Lu Qiaoge had only just entered the house.

But in fact, she had no experience either.

Her eldest daughter's marriage was a mess, and besides, she was in the Northwest at the time and couldn't do anything about it.

By the time she found out, it was too late.

So, she didn't know when it was best to give Lu Qiaoge the meeting gift.

But since her mother-in-law was in a hurry, she would take it out.

The item was on the shelf in the living room. She brought it over and sat beside Lu Qiaoge, her face full of smiles, but clearly, she was still a bit nervous.

"That... Qiaoge, this is for you... take it, don't decline." A jujube-red box was placed in Lu Qiaoge's hand, and Bai Jinyan added: "I'm not good with words, if you decline, I won't know what to do."

The mother-in-law who did scientific research was a good mother-in-law with a simple heart.

Lu Qiaoge discovered that not only was her heart simple, but she was also very frugal.

She just didn't know what was in the box.

Lu Qiaoge first nodded obediently at Bai Jinyan, and after opening it, she found a jade bracelet that was green all over.

Lu Qiaoge's eyes held a smile, and she thanked her in a soft voice: "Thank you, Auntie."

Bai Jinyan felt a huge sense of relief.

But the next moment, the atmosphere in the living room became tense.

Old Master Qin and Grandma Qin's expressions darkened, and Qin Feng and Bai Jinyan's faces showed sadness, disappointment, and anger.

The group, who had been smiling just a moment ago, no longer had smiles on their faces.

The door was pushed open, and a woman with short hair, a tall figure, and wearing a leather jacket walked in from outside.

She was holding Cao Lanzhu, who had a slightly embarrassed expression, by the hand.

After entering the living room, Qin Ruixue let go of her hand, crossed her arms, and looked Lu Qiaoge up and down unscrupulously.

Lu Qiaoge also looked at her unscrupulously.

It seemed she wasn't a fake daughter, because Qin Ruixue looked very much like Qin Feng.

Qin Hengzhi looked more like Bai Jinyan.

But one could also say he took the best traits of both parents.

Qin Hengzhi didn't look at Qin Ruixue, only at Lu Qiaoge, his voice flat: "This is my eldest sister."

Lu Qiaoge smiled: "Hello, Eldest Sister."

But she wouldn't give Eldest Sister Qin a chance to speak; she looked at the embarrassed Cao Lanzhu, her voice full of smiles: "Comrade Cao, we meet again."

Cao Lanzhu gave an embarrassed smile. Facing Lu Qiaoge's smiling face, she actually felt very uncomfortable and tugged at the corner of her clothes. Last time at the dance, she hadn't dared to give Lu Qiaoge an attitude, and now it was even less likely.

Unaccountably, she knew that not only would she not get any benefit, but she might also lose her dignity.

But Eldest Sister Qin, that lunatic, insisted on dragging her along. However, she also wanted to see what Lu Qiaoge was like at the Qin family's house, so she followed.

She hurriedly said: "Yes, we meet again."

Old Master Qin's gaze was like a torch; he looked very calm, but in fact, the situation in the living room was clear at a glance.

No one had notified Qin Ruixue, yet she had come. Whether it was a coincidence or someone had specifically told her, this wasn't the time to ask.
