The tycoon's wicked wife from the era of literature has been reborn.
Chapter 173 Safe
Happy times always pass too quickly; after dinner, it was time to head back to Zhao Village.
This is a custom; you have to go back to your parents' home on the day you return to your parents' home.
After that, things were more casual.
Gao Qinghe is no longer the child who was reluctant to leave home when she was young.
Thinking to myself, I can come back whenever I want in the future. It's only a little over an hour from Zhao Village to Shanghe Village. I laughed without a care in the world.
At the dinner table, Gao Qingya hesitated, wanting to mention the "good deeds" she and the four uncles and aunts of the Jiang family had done, to give a little report, and to show how hard she was trying to protect her sister.
But even after the meal was finished, the eldest sister, Gao Qinghe, showed no sign of bringing it up.
Gao Qingya could only keep it to herself for now, planning to talk about it later when there were fewer people in her family.
Completely unaware of what had happened in Zhao Village, the Gao family still thought the wedding was going smoothly.
Grandma Tian held her granddaughter's hand in one hand and her grandson-in-law's hand in the other, placing their hands together, and said in a tone of someone with experience:
"Now that you're married, you'll have your own little family. As long as you manage your family well and your relationship is harmonious, we, as your elders, will be at ease."
Jiang Baohai was deeply moved and was about to promise his grandmother that he would treat his wife well.
Then I heard my mother-in-law whisper to her daughter, "Honey, you can't be lazy and willful anymore. Treat your mother-in-law well, okay?"
She seemed to be telling her daughter to treat her mother-in-law well, but her expression made it look like her precious daughter was going to suffer in someone else's home.
Gao Chongyi nudged his wife's arm discreetly. "Our son-in-law is still here. What nonsense are you talking about?"
Huang Ying realized that her expression might be misunderstood, so she quickly gave Jiang Baohai a pure and innocent smile.
If Jiang Baohai hadn't been certain that Gao Qinghe hadn't mentioned a word about what happened in Zhao Village today, he would have almost thought that his mother-in-law knew something and was giving him a hard time.
I was already feeling guilty, and now I felt even more embarrassed, so I could only force a smile.
Gao Qinghe secretly rejoiced as she released her grandmother's warm hand.
"Alright, that's enough for now, it'll be dark if we delay any longer."
He waved to his family and then winked at Jiang Baohai.
The young couple stepped back to the front of the car, got in, and drove away under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
On the morning Gao Qinghe got married, Gao Qingmiao didn't feel anything, since she would be back the next day anyway.
But this time, watching the departing vehicle, a sudden pang of sadness welled up in the young man's heart.
It seems I've only just realized how much meaning those words of brotherhood and sisterhood, spoken by my older sister when she held my and my younger sister's hands in the factory compound, contained.
Now the eldest sister is getting married and starting her own family. Later, the younger sister will also grow up and leave this family.
By then, only my parents and grandmother would be left at home.
It turns out that parting ways after growing up is so melancholic.
"sister!"
Gao Qingmiao couldn't help but shout and chase after her.
Upon seeing this, Gao Qingya couldn't help but run after her, calling out as she ran, "Big Sister!"
Upon hearing the sound, Jiang Baohai slowed down and turned to look at his wife with concern.
Gao Qinghe looked at the two people running in the sunset in the rearview mirror, her eyes slightly warm, but she still smiled and shook her head, signaling Jiang Baohai to continue driving forward.
She leaned out the window and waved dismissively, "Go back!"
It's made to sound like a life-or-death separation; it's sickeningly sentimental.
As her sister's most loyal servants, Number One and Number Two, they almost instinctively obeyed orders and immediately stopped.
Watching the car disappear completely around the bend, Gao Qingmiao and Gao Qingya exchanged a glance and burst into tears! Old Mrs. Tian: "..." Shameless!
The two good-for-nothing siblings cried even louder, as if they wanted to attract the whole village to see how deep their feelings for their older sister were.
Gao Chongyi and Huang Ying exchanged a glance and could only shake their heads helplessly, letting them be.
Young people have plenty of energy and blood, so they cry loudly.
The initial sadness of parting was now dispelled by the comical sight of the brother and sister wailing.
A lone red car slowly drove up into Zhao Village as dusk fell.
Jiang Yu, who had been standing at the door for a while, quickly went inside to remind her, "Mom, my brother and sister-in-law are back!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang's mother, who was peeking out from the kitchen doorway, jumped up like a startled cat, her hair standing on end. She didn't dare to look at the road for long and immediately rushed into the kitchen.
She first touched and looked at this and that, busying herself in a daze for a while before gradually calming down, pouring the dishes that had been prepared into the pot, and remembering that she came in to cook dinner.
It gets dark late in summer.
When Gao Qinghe and her husband entered the hospital, although there was still some twilight on the horizon, it was already almost eight o'clock in the evening.
"Hasn't your family had dinner yet?" Gao Qinghe asked Jiang Yu, who came to greet her, with a smile.
The little girl, of course, hoped that her mother and sister-in-law would get along well, and explained:
"Mom waited for you all to come back so we could eat together. Sister-in-law, you love bok choy, so Mom specially went to the field to pick some fresh ones. They're all grown by Mom herself in her spare time, and she cooks them so well!"
Gao Qinghe smiled and nodded, then went to the bathroom to wash her face before returning to her room to change her clothes.
Apart from the old clothes from before, Gao Qinghe packed up and brought most of the clothes from home with her.
The wedding has been exhausting and busy these past two days, and I haven't had time to pack all my clothes yet, as they're still in my dowry suitcase.
Gao Qinghe opened one of the boxes and casually picked out a comfortable light blue cotton sleeveless dress to put on.
The second thing was to reach under the mattress for the key.
Jiang Baohai locked the door when he left in the morning, so no one should have come in.
Sure enough, Gao Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief as she touched the familiar cold, hard metal key.
Upon opening the wardrobe, the suitcase and its contents were found intact.
Jiang Baohai coughed outside the door as a reminder. Gao Qinghe quickly locked the wardrobe and unbolted the door to let him in.
"What are you doing? Why are you locking the door?" Jiang Baohai asked curiously.
Gao Qinghe patted her clothes, leaving the key still under the mattress, without bothering to hide it.
Jiang Baohai immediately understood and leaned closer, asking jokingly, "Sneaking around hiding money?"
To be honest, he still doesn't know how much money she made from reselling government bonds last time.
However, since his wife didn't say anything, he was too lazy to ask. After all, it was only natural for a man to earn money for his woman to spend.
What man would constantly be eyeing his wife's secret stash of money?
Gao Qinghe rolled her eyes at him. If you want to sneak around, do you really want to see where the key is?
"I don't see a place in your room where you can put your valuables."
Jiang Baohai said knowingly, "I'll have Fang Xiaoyu get a safe tomorrow. You can decide where to put it."
The room is quite large; there's enough room to fit a safe.
It's completely exposed without any cover, so wouldn't people immediately recognize it?
After thinking for a moment, Gao Qinghe realized there was no room to build another concealed cabinet, so she opened her own wardrobe. "Let's put it in the wardrobe and nail it to the wall. It'll be secure."
Although it has a useless little system that can act as a security guard, its sensing range is limited.
When she's not home, Gao Qinghe can't rely on it at all! (End of Chapter)
