Chapter 24: 023: How manly
Author: Duo Yanya MACHINE TRANSLATION
Logically speaking, Kang Xiaoqiao’s identity should have been compromised when she plotted to marry him. In addition, he had never given her any expression, so she should have been afraid in her heart. However, even though she was clearly afraid, she still ignored it. That was why it gave Lu Yichen a headache.
And now, Kang Xiaoqiao was good. She was unreasonable, and she was too reasonable. If it wasn’t for the fact that the two of them looked exactly the same, he would have thought that he had been replaced.
However, Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao’s disappointed look. He knew that she might have done it on purpose, but he still could not help but ask, “what’s the matter? ”
Lu Yichen did not know what was wrong with him. After asking, he was a little nervous. Could this girl have some bad ideas again?
And Kang Xiaoqiao had been waiting for Lu Yichen’s words. If he did not respond, how was he going to continue acting?
Thus, she looked at Lu Yichen’s pitiful look and said, “well, we don’t have any rice at home. ”
“What? ”
Lu Yichen pretended that he didn’t hear clearly. Since when did Kang Xiaoqiao start to care about whether there was rice at home?
Lu Yichen couldn’t be blamed for being surprised. The truth was that Kang Xiaoqiao didn’t know how to cook, or she had never seen her cook. The two of them had never cooked a meal since their wedding day. However, someone who never cooked actually cared about rice.. How could this not surprise Lu Yichen?
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at Lu Yichen’s expression and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. With a slightly depressed expression, she said, “we don’t have any more rice at home. ”
Actually, Kang Xiaoqiao’s meaning was simple. If there was no rice at home and you didn’t come home at noon, then what would she eat?
However, what Kang Xiaoqiao didn’t expect was that such a smart person actually asked, “where’s our rice? ”
PFFT —
Kang Xiaoqiao didn’t spit out a mouthful of blood, which caused an internal injury. Then, she looked at Lu Yichen with an awkward expression, cursing him from the beginning to the end in her heart.
How did sister know where the rice went It was not sister who sent it away?
However, when she thought about the whereabouts of the rice at home, Kang Xiaoqiao could not help but have a headache. Just now, she was only thinking about how to settle lunch, but she had completely forgotten about this matter.
Now, she could only bite the bullet and say awkwardly, “that, that, my, my mother came before. After that, after that, there was nothing left. ”
To be honest, Kang Xiaoqiao already had nothing left to live for. The original owner’s mother was not an ordinary person. The first time she visited her son-in-law’s house, she had an unprecedented sweep. Almost everything that could be eaten had been plundered away Even the original owner’s pitiful living expenses were not left behind.
Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao, who looked so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in. After being stunned for a while, he did not ask any more questions.
Then, he took out thirty yuan from his pocket and placed it on the table. He said, “you can use this money first. There are food stamps, oil stamps, cloth stamps, meat stamps, fish stamps… ”
Just as Lu Yichen took out the money, Kang Xiaoqiao immediately blinked her big eyes and looked over. She looked at the colorful small bills with a curious expression. In her eyes, they were all antiques, antiques.
This was the legendary food ticket And, Meat Ticket Meat?
Kang Xiaoqiao stared at the meat ticket with her eyes shining. She almost drooled. She really wanted to eat meat! ! ! !
Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao staring at the useless meat ticket and couldn’t help but frown. Then, he coughed and said, “Ahem, Ahem, do you know how to cook? If you don’t, don’t show off. Just go to the cafeteria and eat. ”
After saying that, he went up and wanted to take back the meat ticket. How could Kang Xiaoqiao let him get what he wanted He pressed the meat ticket into his hand and raised his head, his eyes shining. “Yes, of course I know how to cook. ”
Then, he held the meat ticket in his hand. What kind of joke was this? Meat… she was dying of hunger.
Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao’s protective look and frowned. He was worried that she knew how to cook So he said, “you should recover well these two days. Don’t mess around. There’s everything in the cafeteria. When you’re better in a few days, I’ll take you to the city to buy two new clothes to wear. ”
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard this, she looked at her own clothes and, er… …
It was indeed time for her to change into a new set of clothes. Although it was not patched, it was already rough, and she could see that it had been worn for a long time.
However, Kang Xiaoqiao could not help but frown and Mutter, “buy me new clothes? ”
After saying that, she looked at Lu Yichen with a confused expression. To be honest, she had lived for so long. Other than her mother who had bought her new clothes, no one else had ever bought her new clothes.
For so many years, she had been the only one who had gone through all kinds of hardships. Moreover, she did not need to buy her own clothes after that. She would always buy batches of famous new clothes for her to wear during the season.
‘buy clothes’ , this word was so new!
Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao’s gaze and his heart instantly softened. He thought of the scene when she got married. Although she was generally poor now, he had given so many betrothal gifts, but she didn’t even have a new wedding dress. His heart instantly softened.
His voice also became particularly gentle as he said, “yes, I’ll buy you new clothes. But, you have to take good care of your body these few days and don’t go out to cause trouble. Otherwise, you won’t have any new clothes. Do you hear me? ”
After saying that, he looked at Kang Xiaoqiao and said, “I’m going to the ministry. I’ll be back tonight. If there’s anything, you can call the ministry. ”
After saying that, he turned around and left. He didn’t even wait for Kang Xiaoqiao to say anything to thank him.
Meanwhile, Kang Xiaoqiao couldn’t help but purse her lips. She blinked her big eyes and felt a trace of warmth lingering in her chest.
In her heart, she thought that this person was not bad. He was a little cold and a little stiff at such a young age. However, he was still a gentleman.
At the very least, his actions just now were magnanimous. He did not continue to ask her about the rice and food. Instead, he gave her money and food stamps without hesitation. From this point of view, Lu Yichen was quite manly.
Most importantly, he actually wanted to buy her new clothes. New Clothes. Although Lu Yichen’s acting skills were extremely clumsy, the feeling of being treated like a child was, well, quite interesting.
Thinking of this, Kang Xiaoqiao could not help but purse the corners of her mouth. Her eyes were filled with smiles as she picked up her colorful small bills and started counting them beautifully.
Kang Xiaoqiao had no idea that the reason why Lu Yichen was so happy was because he knew his mother-in-law very well. He was too lazy to care about her. At the same time, he was also thinking about the words that had been spread outside.
Although Kang Xiaoqiao had schemed against him, she had never participated in matters like betrothal gifts after the event. She had never said anything. It was her mother who had arranged everything. It seemed that her days at home were not that comfortable.
That was true. There were so many boys at home. It was not easy to think about her.
