In fact, Feng Qingxue didn't run into Wang Jiao.
The weather wasn't good; it remained gloomy for two consecutive days, with a biting northeastern wind bringing the temperature down. Fearing that rain or snow would soon descend, she left her younger sister with her uncle's family. She went into town, first to mail some items for Lu Jiang, then to deliver grain to Uncle Xu, before providing the Chen Ming family with some oil and fine grain. After visiting Aunt Zhao, she finally picked up some resources for the winter.
Ever since her engagement to Lu Jiang, Feng Qingxue had intermittently given her aunt small goodies, sometimes a couple of eggs, sometimes a pack of brown sugar, other times a handful of noodles.
The items weren't substantial, but they were undeniably scarce commodities.
Whenever Aunt Feng asked the source of these goods, Qingxue would say they were bought with money and coupons given by Lu Jiang.
