Chapter 200 - 202: Discovering Another Virtue of His_1
As soon as she entered the door, she burst out with excitement, "Grandma, has Qiaoqiao come back yet? There are lion dances in the street outside." At that moment, Li Qiao came out from inside. He continued, "Shall we join the fun?"
Li Qiao was inclined to go, but she was too tired and sleepy at the moment and just wanted to eat and go to bed. "Maybe next time." She quickly changed the subject, "The doll in the house, it’s the one you bought, right? Its eyeballs can even move; it scared me out of my wits all of a sudden."
Qin Jin said, "I thought you would like it. If it scares you, put it in Grandma’s room."
Old Mrs. Qin said, "..."
Li Qiao chuckled and said, "Don’t scare Grandma again."
Old Mrs. Qin’s mood eased, still a dutiful granddaughter-in-law, girls are indeed more considerate than boys.
The preserved vegetable pork belly was rich but not greasy, and Li Qiao ate two large steamed buns with it, feeling uncomfortably full.
After reading and replying to the letters from Ma Ling and the sent-down youth, she still couldn’t sleep.
She pulled Qin Jin for a walk to aid digestion. They made their way to the spot where he had mentioned the lion dance, only to find no one there. Disappointed, they returned home and encountered Jiang Wanqiu and Xue Sufen on their way.
"Hello, Madam Xue," Li Qiao and Qin Jin greeted her at the same time.
Jiang Wanqiu responded with indifference. She was aware that today was the school’s sports day and had specifically asked about Li Qiao’s performance after Sufen came back, who had won three first places.
