248 Qiao Xuan's Bad Feelings
Within a short while, Qiao Xuan filled in half a basket and left the remaining ones for frying. They would be made to cook egg and wolfberry sprouts.
After she left the floral field, she ran into Ms. Zhang from the second section of the family.
Qiao Xuan smiled and called out 'Second Sister-in-law' out of politeness, when Ms. Zhang reacted with a smile. "What a coincidence, Fifth Sister-in-law!"
"Yes." Qiao Xuan nodded and smiled. "Bye!"
"Hey, Fifth Sister-in-law." Ms. Zhang stopped her and looked at her basket. "The wolfberry is very fresh!"
Qiao Xuan confusedly let out a response. "Ah… yes."
She wondered what Ms. Zhang wanted to say.
Ms. Zhang smiled. "It looks so fresh! I heard that you have many wolfberry sprouts planted in your floral field, maybe I can go inside and get some as well?"
Wolfberry sprouts were not precious things, and she had many in the field. There were still a whole bunch left.
Theoretically speaking, she should have said yes to this Second Sister-in-law.
However, Ms. Zhang was from the second section of the family, and she did not want her to see what was inside the floral field.
She could not let her see the lipstick tubes, the bee boxes or the trees including the tea trees.
Qiao Xuan smiled. "I can share half of it with you."
"You are so generous. I like you so much!" Ms. Zhang smiled and added. "But I don't want to just take your things. I can pick them up myself. I would like to see what your floral field is like. Fifth Sister-in-law, you won't be so stingy as not to let me in, right?"
Qiao Xuan got disgusted.
Ms.Zhang was trying to morally kidnap her!
She would be stingy for not letting her in?
"Second Sister-in-law, I have got all the wolfberry sprouts and the wolfberries inside aren't big enough for the sprouts to come out. If you want, you can have mine in the basket."
"Alright… that is fine." Ms.Zhang was a sneaky person. She had wanted to take them, but she did not want to just take the stuff. She wanted to get a look at the whole floral field.
"But I just want to see your floral field, why not let me in? I see the Elder Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law and Taotao keep going inside. Maybe I can help you too?"
Qiao Xuan's face sank. "No thanks, they are enough!"
"Fifth Sister-in-law!"
"I always ask Mom for approval. How about you asking her what she thinks?"
Ms. Fang would never approve of this request.
She knew very well that Ms. Fang was sneaky and stingy.
Ms. Zhang's smiled staggered. "We can talk about this later…"
Qiao Xuan smiled politely. "Okay, I need to go now! Bye!"
Ms. Zhang saw Qiao Xuan going away and her face sank. She was not pleased at all.
"Bah!" She spat on the ground and mumbled. "What are you putting on an act for!"
