An Yuzhi silently patted An Li's little head and shook her head helplessly.
Grandpa is becoming more and more like a child. He used to be so serious!
An Yuning turned his head to look at his wife, Song Ruomei.
Unfortunately for An Yushu, he was met with disdain from Old Master An as soon as he returned.
"Grandpa, take a look, do you like it?" Jiang Anxia smiled, wanting Grandpa An to open it and take a look.
Upon hearing this, Grandpa An didn't say anything and immediately opened the box.
Inside the box was a ginseng root that was very well preserved. With Old Master An's discerning eye, he was willing to guarantee that this ginseng root was at least twenty years old.
“My dear, this ginseng…” Grandpa An didn’t finish his sentence, but Jiang Anxia understood.
"I found it when I went up the mountain before. After thinking about it, it's the only thing I can give it to you," Jiang Anxia lied without changing her expression.
To be honest, this ginseng is one of the younger ones in her space.
This was something Jiang Anxia had spent a long time selecting from her spatial storage.
After all, it would be difficult for her to explain if it were too old. So she thought about it for a while before deciding to take this one.
"Xiaxia, where did this come from?" Grandpa An stared intently at the ginseng in the box, his heart filled with astonishment.
He knew about the little girl's situation, so he was curious about where the ginseng came from.
"I discovered it by chance when I was climbing the mountain once." Jiang Anxia had already guessed what he was going to ask, so she had prepared her answer in advance.
"Up the mountain? Are you alright?" Upon hearing that Jiang Anxia had found it on the mountain, Grandpa An immediately asked with concern if Jiang Anxia had been injured at the time.
"No," Jiang Anxia gently shook her head.
"That's good." Grandpa An was relieved, rubbing the box with his fingers, his eyes full of joy.
This was given to him by his beloved grandson; he must keep it safe.
Seeing that Grandpa An was no longer saying anything, Jiang Anxia began to give gifts to everyone one by one.
Having received Jiang Anxia's gift, everyone also took out the gifts they had given to Jiang Anxia long ago.
Soon, Jiang Anxia's hands were full of gifts from everyone.
As time passed, the rain, which had stopped sometime earlier, started falling again.
Jiang Anxia turned her head to look and smiled.
She likes rainy days because they can cover up traces she doesn't want others to find.
In her previous life, she chose to sit by the window, with a small coffee table on her left and a cup of coffee on it.
I just listened quietly to the sound of rain outside the window.
I don't want to think about anything, I don't care about anything, it's as if my body is still in this world, but my soul has already drifted off to who knows where.
"It seems this rain isn't going to stop anytime soon," Mrs. An said with a sigh.
Mother An dislikes rainy days.
She felt that the gloomy sky when it rained greatly affected her mood.
"It's alright, don't think about it too much." Father An took Mother An's hand and patted it gently.
He knew why his mother was like this.
It's all because Jiang Anxia was taken away when she was a child and that's how she became like this.
“I know.” Mother An looked up at Jiang Anxia, who was standing by the window watching the rain.
She has begun to let go slowly, after all, her baby has been found.
Actually, after exchanging gifts, they chatted for a long time.
But later, one by one, they couldn't sit still anymore and chose to go back to their rooms.
So, besides Jiang Anxia, only Anxia's parents were in the living room.
Looking at the still-falling rain, Jiang Anxia felt extremely peaceful.
She looked closely and the sky outside the window seemed even more gloomy.
Jiang Anxia half-raised her hand, covered her lips, and yawned softly.
She turned around and found that her parents had gone back to their room sometime ago. She was now alone in the empty living room.
Before she could lower her half-raised hand, Jiang Anxia yawned again.
Finally, unable to resist the call of sleep, Jiang Anxia went upstairs.
Jiang Anxia fell asleep within three minutes of lying in bed.
There was no way around it; she was just too tired.
...
Summer days seem to be exceptionally long.
At 6:30 p.m., Jiang Anxia groggily opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling above her head.
After a while, Jiang Anxia's eyes gradually cleared.
With her hands braced against the bed, Jiang Anxia sat up.
With a blink of an eye, Jiang Anxia was fully awake.
Stretching, Jiang Anxia walked briskly out of the room and headed to the first floor.
When Jiang Anxia went downstairs, she found that there was no one else there.
She smiled helplessly and went to the kitchen to get busy.
Jiang Anxia was quick and efficient, and finished four dishes and a soup in about an hour.
Seeing that no one had appeared, she pursed her lips and decided to go and call someone.
If she waited any longer, it would get dark, and then it would be late.
Starting from the first floor, Jiang Anxia gently knocked on the door.
An's mother lay in bed, groggily opening her eyes, and only gradually came to her senses when she heard the knocking on the door again.
She turned to look at her father, who was still fast asleep, rolled her eyes, and slapped him across the face.
"Hmm... what's wrong?" An's father woke up with a start, looking at An's mother blankly.
"Get up." Mother An glanced out the window and saw that it was already getting dark.
After waking up Mr. An, Mrs. An got out of bed and went to open the door.
"Xiaxia, what's wrong? Are you hungry? Mom will go and wake up Lao San to cook." After saying this, An's mother didn't wait for Jiang Anxia's reply and started to walk upstairs.
"Mom, no, I came to call you and Dad for dinner. I've already prepared the food." Upon seeing this, Jiang Anxia quickly reached out and grabbed her mother's hand.
"Is it done?" Mother An paused, turned to look at Jiang Anxia, her eyes filled with guilt.
She had finally found her precious child and wanted to take good care of her, but instead, she ended up taking care of her instead.
The more An's mother thought about it, the more she felt that Jiang Anxia had been wronged.
"Yes! I saw it was getting late, so I came to call you." Jiang Anxia nodded obediently.
...
A gentle morning breeze drifted into the room through the slightly ajar window. Jiang Anxia opened her eyes groggily, looking as if she hadn't woken up properly.
God knows how late she slept last night.
With a blink, Jiang Anxia's eyes gradually became clear.
Thinking about the plan she wrote last night, she couldn't sleep; she had to finish it as soon as possible.
Jiang Anxia got up quickly, not daring to delay any longer, after all, there were still some things to do today.
She planned to accomplish one of her goals, which was to look for houses.
"Xiaxia? Xiaxia?" Mother An stood at the door of Jiang Anxia's room, gently knocking.
A gentle knock on the door pulled Jiang Anxia back to her senses, and she quickly stood up and went to open the door.
"Hey! I'm awake, Mom."
