Chapter 102: Chapter 0102: Meeting of the Twin Beauties 2_1

Hearing Feng Qingxue’s words, the three of Uncle Feng didn’t immediately descend. Only when they had cleared the snow from the roof, gruntingly rubbing their hands, and shovelled the snow from the yard beyond the fence wall were they done - their heads steaming with exertion.

Feng Qingxue busily invited them inside.

She had already boiled a small pot of brown sugar ginger tea, and served everyone a generous bowl.

The ginger tea was to fight off the cold, but brown sugar was a luxury. Feng Aizhong and Feng Aihua hesitated to drink, using the warm bowls to warm their hands.

Observing this, Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "Please drink while it’s still hot, elder and second brothers. Once it gets cold, it will lose its warming effect. We still have more than half a bag of this brown sugar left. Each of you can take some home for your wives to drink later."

Feng Aihua said, "Give it all to the elder brother, our sister-in-law needs more nutrition."

Feng Aizhong’s wife, Ma Haiyan, was seven months pregnant. At home, anything nutritious was given to her first. Last time, most of the malt essence that Feng Qingxue had given went to her, with only their youngest brother, Aiguo, tasting it a couple of times.

"Little sister, I won’t stand on ceremony then. I have quite a lot of scallions growing in my cellar. I’ll cut some for you later." Nowadays, just having enough food to fill one’s stomach was considered good. Let alone nutrition, Feng Aizhong cherished his wife dearly and wanted her to eat better. He didn’t refuse the offer and could only think of offering something from his home to Feng Qingxue, not wanting to take advantage of her generosity.

Feng Qingxue didn’t refuse and smiled in reply, "Then thank you in advance, elder brother!"

Feng Qingyun chimed in, "Thank you, elder brother!"

"Xiaoyun, you’re such a good girl!" Uncle Feng couldn’t help but compliment.

The sisters were still chatting with their grandfather and uncles over the brown sugar ginger tea when Wang Jiao strolled in from outside, announcing, "Qingxue, my father asked me to come and see if you need any help."

"You are?" Feng Qingxue stood up, looking puzzled at the impolite young girl in front of her.

The voice sounded familiar, but the face wasn’t. The main reason was that the Wang Jiao in Feng Qingxue’s memory was completely different from the current one.

The Wang Jiao from her memory was a typical girl, but the current one was very modern and seemed out of place in this era.

Feng Aihua recognized Wang Jiao and quickly explained, "Little sister, this is your cousin from your uncle’s side. She came to see you a few days ago when you weren’t at home." When Wang Jiao had come to his house asking for Feng Qingxue, both he and his mother were home.

Wang Jiao? Upon a closer look, Feng Qingxue had a sudden realization.

"Cousin? It’s been years since we last met, and I almost didn’t recognize you. Please have a seat, cousin. It must be cold outside. Please, sit down and have a sip of tea to warm yourself," Feng Qingxue said as she ladled a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea for her.

No matter how rudely Wang Jiao behaved, Feng Qingxue showed perfect hospitality.

Walking through the snow all the way here, Wang Jiao was almost frozen. Holding the warm bowl of ginger tea in her hands, she took several mouthfuls when it cooled down just enough to drink, not even uttering a word of thanks.

Uncle Feng and his sons hurriedly finished their ginger tea and excused themselves.

"Xiaoxue, as you have a relative visiting, we’ll take our leave now," said Uncle Feng.

"Alright, Uncle and brothers, take care," Feng Qingxue replied. She opened the cabinet, took out a bag of brown sugar, and walked them to the door. She put the brown sugar into Feng Aizhong’s hands, "I won’t see you off, Uncle and brothers."

Uncle Feng replied, "Hurry back, don’t leave Xiaoyun alone in the house."

Feng Qingxue then returned to the room to see that Wang Jiao had finished her ginger tea and was wandering around the room, examining everything.

Feng Qingyun stood in a corner, her round eyes filled with anger.
