Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 11

Da Qiao didn't know that her kindness had brought so much trouble to Auntie Hui. Or that her mother had went marching over to the door.

At this moment, she was looking at the jade pendant in her palm. Her heart was thumping.

Just now, two small beads suddenly fell off from the eye of the koi jade pendant. The size of the beads was about the same as that of fish eyes.

However, compared with fish eyes, this jade bead was white and flawless. Crystal clear and looked very beautiful.

It so mysterious.

Out of nowhere, eye beads fell off!

After freezing a long time, Da Qiao gently picked up the jade beads and squeezed it.

The jade beads were very soft. Felt like gummies. Very pleasing to the touch.

Then she put it under her nose and smelled it.

The scent wasn't very strong. Somewhat of a natural floral scent. Light and very good smell.

Da Qiao moved her delicate nose like a small animal. She pursed her little mouth and gulped saliva.

She ate two bowls of porridge and half a fish tonight. Why did she seem to be hungry now?

She can really eat.

Da Qiao's little face blushed. She was ashamed of her gluttony.

After struggling for a while, she still didn't dare to eat the jade beads. Her father had told her not to eat things randomly.

But what should she do with this jade bead?

Such a beautiful bead. It would be a pity to throw it. But how should she explain if she don't throw it and it got seen?

Da Qiao was in a dilemma.

In the end, she hardened her heart and decided to get rid of the jade beads.

She threw the jade beads into the wooden basin, which contained the water that she had soaked her little feet. As soon as the jade beads entered, they quickly melted away without a trace.

Da Qiao's big deer-like eyes blinked a few times. Then she reached into the water and stirred it. Nothing was found.

She sighed a little before taking the tub out and dumped the water in the corner of the yard.

The old people in the village still had lingering fears of the past few famine years, so production team leader, Wang Shui Sheng had led men from the village to build a reservoir these days.

When it snows later, the reservoir can store snow. When the snow melts in the spring next year, there will be no shortage of water.

Qiao Zhen Quo had participated. When he came back, he was covered in a dust. In order to wait for him, old Qiao Family had dinner late tonight.

Wan Chun Ju was so hungry that her stomach was growling. For the whole evening, she drooled at the plate of fish. After the meal finally began, she didn't care about anything. She picked up the chopsticks and started grabbing.

"It's delicious! This fish is so fat! Wonder where Da Qiao got it from?"

Da Qiao's child usually appeared solemn and well-behaved. Never thought her to be so sly. Even when mother-in-law asked her, she didn't want to tell where the fish came from!

Really a small person with giant tricks!

"This fish soup is so delicious. My dear mother ah! I don't remember how long since I have eaten such delicious fish!"

"It's so yummy. Extremely yummy! Mom, you shouldn't let Da Qiao give the fish to that loose Lin Hui!"

Seeing Wan Chun Ju make a clean sweep and spat saliva as she ate, Qiao Xiu Zhi pinched on her brows like she got a dead fly: "None of your business! Da Qiao got the fish. She can give it to whomever she wants to. If you don't want to eat it, go back to your room!"

Qiao Zhen Guo glanced at his wife and agreed: "You have something to eat and it still can't plug your mouth. Mom is right. If you don't want to eat it, just go back in. Look how you're spraying your saliva everywhere. Can others still eat it? "

A mouthful of old blood rushed up within Wan Chun Ju and she almost suffocated to death on the spot!

What kind of man did she marry? It was enough that he didn't protect her. And he still tell her off in front of so many people. Her life was so bitter!

It was still her mother-in-law who was fortunate. Although the mother-in-law was big and crude, father-in-law held her in his palm as he doted her.

Look, even when eating a fish, Father-in-law would pick the bones out first and then put them in the Mother-in-law's bowl. Truly made one envious to death!

Wan Chun Ju glanced at the man sitting next to her, who was noisily munching away. She coyly spoke: "Zhen Guo, I want to eat fish."

Qiao Zhen Guo's whole body shivered and looked at her like he saw a ghost: "Straighten your tongue to speak. Really makes one shiver. Look, my goose bumps are all up!"

He rolled up his sleeves and really showed her his goose bumps.

"..."

Wan Chun Ju almost vomited some blood.

At the beginning, she wasn't blind. So why did she fall in love with such a unromantic man like Qiao Zhen Guo?

Qiao Xiu Zhi raised her eyes to glance at her eldest daughter-in-law. The corner of her mouth smiled lightly. She picked up some food for her husband, Xue Chuan and said: "Don't focus on picking fish bones for me. Eat more."

Xue Chuan was the kind of man who has been handsome for a lifetime. When he was young, he was handsome and had no rivals with in ten miles. Now that he was old, he was still a handsome old man. Those old men within the ten miles were simply an eye sore when standing in front of him.

He looked at his wife and smiled gently: "Don't you like fish very much? It's rare to come across such delicious fish. I must clear more for you."

Under the orange candlelight's glow, he concentrated on picking up a fishbone for his wife.

Qiao Xiu Zhi didn't refuse this time. In fact, as long as Xue Chuan insisted on something, she would never stop him.

Wan Chun Ju's eyes were red with envy.

She gritted her teeth and said again: "Zhen Guo, help me pick out the fishbone."

This time she didn't speak in a coy tone. But it was a pity that the man in front of her was a steel straight man, who never understood what romance were.

Qiao Zhen Guo casually gave her a stab again: "Don't have any hands? You aren't a three-year-old kid, and need someone to help you pick fishbones. You are so funny!"

Wan Chun Ju: "..."

Wan Chun Ju was already full from anger!

She originally wanted to learn PDA from her in-laws. Unexpectedly, Qiao Zhen Guo that rotton man, couldn't understand romance at all. Simply infuriating!

Wan Chun Ju turned her anger toward food and clipped most of the fish flesh into her bowl.

Food was better. It will never let one down.

Unexpectedly the next moment she cried out and her face scrunched up.

Qiao Zheng Guo was very impatient: "What's the matter with you?" Why are you acting so much during one dinner?

Wan Chun Ju touched her throat with her hand and swallowed saliva with much difficulty: "Fishbone stuck!"

Then there was a flurry of turmoil. In order to swallow the fishbone, she drank half a jar of vinegar. She drank until her teeth almost fell from the sourness. But the fishbone still didn't go down.

In the end, she swallowed two big mantou in a row. She almost choked herself to death before she was able to swallow the fishbone. Her throat hurt. She could only drink congee for a good few days.

She also choked to death, but Qiao Zhen Guo didn't care about her at all. His chopsticks never left the table and ate more happily than anyone else!

What kind of unlucky life was this? Wan Chun Ju felt that the whole world was against her.

Today, the villagers in Qili Village watched a big show. The affairs between Lin Hui and Qiao Zhen Guo became the top gossip.

"Unexpectedly, it turns out that Lin Hui fancied old Second Qiao long ago."

"What unexpectedly? Qiao Family is stable. Old Second Qiao is honest, hardworking, and good-looking. When he wasn't married, which girl wasn't eyeing on him?"

"It's a pity, old Second Qiao has chosen a woman like Fang Xiao Juan out of two thousand choice."

Fang Xiao Juan was pretty, but her temperament... Fang Family's whole family made people retreat three feet away.

At this moment, Lin Hui walked out of the house with a pale face and headed towards the well at the entrance of the village.

When she walked to the ancient well, she didn't say anything and she jumped toward the mouth of the well.

A splash erupted and the person was gone.
