Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

As soon as Jiang Xia finished speaking, the village chief’s wife, as if in a practiced duet, immediately said to Old Madam Jiang, “Look, how sensible and filial this child is!”

In the meantime, quite a few people from the village also came to visit Old Madam Jiang upon hearing the news.

It could be said that everyone saw the respectful and filial appearance of Zhou Lan and her daughter.

With the village chief’s wife by their side, speaking well of them, even Old Madam Jiang, if she wanted to scold them, couldn’t get a word in.

Everyone was talking at once again. After a while, they all knew that Jiang Chuan was still sick at home. And yet Zhou Lan and her daughter hadn’t forgotten to come and see Old Madam Jiang. They all praised Zhou Lan for her filial piety.

In the end, under the arrangement of the village chief’s wife, Zhou Lan and her daughter went back to take care of Jiang Chuan. The people who came to visit did not want to offend the village chief’s wife, so they all agreed.

Before Old Madam Jiang could say anything to persuade them to stay, Zhou Lan and her daughter had already been pushed out by the crowd.

On the way home, mother and daughter almost laughed out loud, thinking of the earlier situation, but fortunately, they held it back.

They never thought they would see Old Madam Jiang defeated like that.

When they returned home, Doctor Li had already gone to their house. Jiang Chuan was sitting leisurely in the courtyard, sunbathing.

Looking up, he saw the smiling faces of mother and daughter. “What happened? Why are you both so happy?” he asked.

The mother and daughter first laughed for a while, and after their laughter, Zhou Lan said to Jiang Chuan, “You didn’t see it today. Old Madam Jiang and that old man’s faces were so displeased!”

“That’s right! Thanks to the village chief’s wife,” Jiang Xia added.

“The village chief’s wife was there?” Jiang Chuan asked curiously upon hearing Jiang Xia mention her.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xia briefly explained the situation to Jiang Chuan.

“It seems we should really thank the village chief.”

“You’re right, we should show our gratitude. I’ll pickle some wild vegetables and send them to the village chief.”

Zhou Lan said, knowing that without the village chief’s wife, things wouldn’t have been resolved so easily.

But today, they had taught Old Madam Jiang and her husband a lesson, and they probably wouldn’t bother them again for a while.

“What did Doctor Li say after he came?” Jiang Xia had been worried about the situation at home while at Old Madam Jiang’s house.

“Doctor Li knows our family situation. 1 think, looking at Doctor Li’s expression, he probably won’t tell anyone about this matter.”

When Doctor Li came, Jiang Chuan didn’t intend to hide anything from him. Looking at Doctor Li’s face, it seemed he knew that Jiang Chuan was pretending to be sick to avoid his old family Jiang.

“Enough about that. Today Xiao Xia and I fought a beautiful battle. How about we eat something nice to celebrate?” Zhou Lan asked, smiling and rolling up her sleeves.

“Great! The weather is getting cold. How about some mutton soup?” Jiang Xia excitedly suggested to Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan.

“Right! We still haven’t eaten the sheep we caught in the mountains last time. Let’s slaughter it today and have a feast!” Zhou Lan decided, clapping her hands.

“Good! I’ll kill the sheep! Tonight we’ll have a wonderful meal!” Even Jiang Chuan’s mood was lifted, looking forward to the evening’s dinner.

Father and daughter were preparing to start, laughing and chatting as they went to the backyard. Just as Jiang Xia was about to fetch the sheep, there was a knock at the small door.

Jiang Chuan opened the door, and his memory slowly returned when he saw the two people.

They were Zhou Lan’s family members, her brother Zhou Wan, and Zhou Lan’s sister’s husband, Xu Niu.

They didn’t come empty-handed. Zhou Wan was carrying a small bag, and Xu Niu’s bag was larger, looking like freshly slaughtered animals, with a strong smell of blood.

Jiang Xia’s memory of her maternal grandmother’s family was vague, but these memories were happy ones from the original Jiang Xia.

Their family could only eat two full meals when they returned to their maternal grandmother’s house. They didn’t have to work all day and could even play freely.

But life at their maternal grandmother’s house was also tough. They often didn’t have enough to eat and just managed to feed themselves. Helping Jiang Xia’s family was really hard for them.

They only had one boy in their family, Zhou Wan. His wedding used up all the money and food they had saved. When Zhou Lan got married, there was nothing left to eat in the house..
