Chapter 1003 The Aftermath of the Jiang Family

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Which room does Xiaoya live in? I live next door to her."

Zhou Qiao reached out her hand, "Come on, let me take you to see it first."

Both she and Da Niu knew from the beginning that the little girl would be living on the farm. The Cui family's house was habitable, but the houses of the farmers there were really too far apart. It was hard not to feel at ease for a five-year-old girl to live in a house alone.

In addition, a murder had just occurred, one of whom was Xiaoya'er's grandfather, so the little girl was also scared.

In any case, when she gets a few more years older, or when she's no longer afraid, she can move back if she wants to.

Although Zhou Qiao has social anxiety, she really likes children.

Shu Yugang told Da Niu, and Zhou Qiao agreed.

Upon arriving at the estate, she immediately tidied up Xiaoya'er's room.

However, apart from the bed, bedding, and a wardrobe, there was nothing else in the room. Xiaoya'er's things were all at the Cui family's house, and they would have to be moved over when she returned.

A Ning followed Zhou Qiao to see the room, and then said, "I've decided not to stay next to Xiao Ya'er anymore."

Zhou Qiao asked in confusion, "Why?"

"This bed is very big. If I come again, I'll stay with Ya'er." Anyway, even if she comes often, she can't stay overnight all the time.

It's too much trouble for my sister-in-law to clean the room even if I only stay for a day or two.

Zhou Qiao assumed that she had a good relationship with Xiao Ya'er, so she didn't say anything more.

When lunch was ready, Guo returned with Xiaoya'er.

The little girl's eyes were red and swollen; she must have cried again when she went to pay her respects.

After dinner, A Ning accompanied Cui Ya back to pack her things, while Zhou Qiao and Guo Shi helped move them over.

There weren't many things; even with all the children's clothes and daily necessities brought, they could only fit in one corner of the room.

Seeing that there was nothing going on at the estate, Shu Yu took A Ning back to the city.

It was peak time for people to leave the city, and even after entering the city gates, the mule carts moved very slowly.

Shu Yu pulled back the curtain and looked out the car window, a smile playing on her lips. She was in a good mood today, thinking that soon the sunflowers would grow tall and strong, and she could then plant alfalfa to sell for money. At least she would have some income, which made her even happier.

The mule cart had just arrived at the entrance of Jixiang Wine Shop when Shu Yu suddenly called out, "Stop the cart."

"Second sister, what's wrong?" A-Ning asked curiously, tilting her head.

Shu Yu got out of the car and said to her, "Wait here for me, I'm going to the wine shop to buy two jugs of wine."

The wine jug at home seems to be empty.

Come to think of it, she hadn't been to Jixiang Wine Shop since returning to Jiangyuan County.

Back then, this wine shop was only managed by Jiang Yi and his wife, Deng, and the shop was very small.

Looking at it now, it seems that Jixiang Wine Shop also bought and combined the shop next door, expanding the storefront and renovating it.

She heard from Ding Yuehua that after she went to the southwest, the Jiang family suddenly fell into chaos.

Jiang Ren, who had driven out his second and third brothers, not only encountered setbacks in his business endeavors but also incurred considerable debts. It was said that the liquor he sold was heavily diluted with water, which angered many people.

The Jiang family's liquor business is getting worse and worse, and Jiang Ren has become a rat that everyone hates.

Seeing that his business was not improving and that he had mortgaged several shops without being able to get them back, the man simply ran away, abandoning his son and wife, and disappeared without a trace.

But his son was only twelve years old, and a spoiled and unruly brat. With his father gone, he was at a loss.
