"Okay." Upon hearing this, Jiang Anxia stood up and moved away from the stove.
Seeing that Jiang Anxia had gone far away, Jiang's mother poured the vegetables directly into the pot and started stir-frying them with a spatula in her right hand.
I'm worried that the oil temperature will be too high and the vegetables will burn.
Seeing that the oil had stopped splattering, Jiang Anxia sat back down; occasionally she looked up at the pot, trying to learn the essence of her mother's cooking.
An hour later, Jiang's mother and Zhou Laidi worked together to prepare nearly ten dishes.
Tofu fish, braised pork, stir-fried vegetables, shredded green peppers and potatoes, stewed meat and cowpeas, etc.
The family sat around the round table, chatting and laughing, creating a lively atmosphere.
"Second son, when are you leaving this time?" Father Jiang asked while eating his rice.
"On the third day of the Lunar New Year, I can stay at home for a month." Jiang Nan glanced at her mother, then lowered her head again to focus on eating.
Jiang Nanqing had been craving the food his mother made for a long time, especially around the time of the Lunar New Year.
I finally got to eat it this year.
"Mom's cooking is still as delicious as ever." Jiang Nanqing praised her mother even with her mouth full.
"Eat more if you like it." Mother Jiang was naturally very happy to hear the praise.
“That’s a must.” Jiang Nanqing nodded quickly.
He'll definitely eat a lot, since he only gets to eat like that a few times a year.
"Xiaxia, try this." Jiang Nanqiu looked at Jiang Anxia beside him and picked up a piece of the dish that he thought was quite delicious.
"Thank you, Third Brother." Jiang Anxia looked up at him and smiled.
She was busy eating! She only managed to see him when she had a spare moment.
Jiang Anxia thought that the food made by her mother and Zhou Laidi was especially delicious today.
It's completely different from usual.
"Eat up!" Jiang Nanqiu chuckled. It seemed this girl had forgotten what happened this morning.
That's fine, as long as she's happy.
Jiang Anxia looked at Jiang Nanqiu with a blank expression; she was already eating!
Why would you say that? I'm puzzled.
Yes, Jiang Anxia had already forgotten everything that happened that morning.
She's always been forgetful, and with several hours having passed, she must have forgotten by now.
What's more, once you've spoken about something that's been weighing on your mind, you feel relieved and don't want to keep it in your heart anymore.
"Xiaxia is seventeen now, my second and third sons! Do you have any girls you like?" Now that her daughters are older, Jiang's mother wants to urge Jiang Nanqing and Jiang Nanqiu to get married.
"Mom, I'm not in a hurry," Jiang Nanqiu said softly.
How did we end up talking about this all of a sudden?
“Mom, I’m not in a hurry,” Jiang Nanqing quickly added.
He doesn't want anything else right now.
"Not in a hurry? When will you be in a hurry? When you're in your thirties?" Mother Jiang said sternly.
They're all in their mid-twenties, and they still say they're not in a hurry?
"Mom, I want to work hard for a few more years so I can give my future wife the best." Jiang Nanqing said, sounding like she was talking nonsense.
He doesn't want to think about these things right now; he just wants to get results first.
"Fine, fine, you're all people with your own ideas, I'm not going to bother with you anymore," Jiang's mother reluctantly conceded.
Everyone said the same thing, so what could she say?
Jiang Nanqing and Jiang Nanqiu exchanged a glance; this was exactly what they wanted.
Jiang Anxia enjoyed her meal even more after watching a play.
After finishing the meal, Jiang Anxia was walking while holding her stomach.
"Xiaxia, go for a walk in the yard and help with your digestion." Jiang's mother looked worriedly at Jiang Anxia, who was slumped on the stool.
"Okay." Jiang Anxia stood up with difficulty.
I wish she hadn't eaten so much. It's so uncomfortable!
(′ . .? . `)
Jiang Anxia slowly walked out of the main room and wandered around the courtyard.
But shaking it for half an hour didn't help at all; my stomach still felt really uncomfortable.
"Mom, I'm going out for a walk," Jiang Anxia called out to her mother in the kitchen.
“Okay, I understand,” Jiang’s mother replied loudly.
She guessed that Jiang Anxia was still feeling quite unwell, so she suggested that she go out for a walk.
Upon receiving her mother's reply, Jiang Anxia turned and walked out of the courtyard.
After swaying and turning for another half hour, Jiang Anxia finally felt much better and wasn't as uncomfortable as she had been at the beginning.
Once her stomach felt better, Jiang Anxia turned and headed home.
"Xiaxia, Xiaxia, please help me, please help me." Jiang Xiaohua appeared out of nowhere and knelt down in front of Jiang Anxia.
The sudden scene startled Jiang Anxia.
In the short time it took her to turn around, a person knelt down in front of her; it looked incredibly eerie.
When she heard the voice, she realized it was Jiang Xiaohua.
"Help you? You're overthinking it." Jiang Anxia rolled her eyes.
She did so many terrible things to the original owner of this body, and now she still wants her help? She must be bored.
"Xiaxia, only you can help me, I beg you." Jiang Xiaohua's tears flowed like water.
"Tell me what happened first?" Jiang Anxia was curious about what could have driven Jiang Xiaohua to this point.
She was just very curious, but she didn't offer to help her.
"Xiaxia, only you can help me." Jiang Xiaohua was truly at her wit's end.
She couldn't find anyone to help her.
If she doesn't find a husband, her mother will marry her off to a man in his forties from the next village.
"You tell me first, and the rest depends on my mood." Jiang Anxia felt extremely restless if she couldn't get any gossip.
“It’s my mom. She’s going to marry me off to an old man in his forties from the next village. I don’t want to, but she says she won’t let me marry him if I give her three hundred yuan. Xiaxia, only you can help me now.” Jiang Xiaohua hugged Jiang Anxia’s leg tightly, not letting Jiang Anxia have any way out.
“No wonder.” Jiang Anxia nodded knowingly.
No wonder Jiang Xiaohua came to find her; there was no other way!
However, she wouldn't help her; Jiang Anxia wasn't that kind of saintly.
"Xiaxia, Xiaxia, please help me," Jiang Xiaohua cried out repeatedly.
She could only place her hopes on Jiang Anxia; she couldn't get that much money herself, but Jiang Anxia certainly could.
"Jiang Xiaohua, what makes you think I would help you?" Jiang Anxia really didn't know what she had done to give Jiang Xiaohua the illusion that she could help her.
"No, Xiaxia, please help me, I beg you." Jiang Xiaohua cried her eyes out, just so Jiang Anxia could help her.
She has now forgotten everything she did to Jiang Anxia.
Because in her view, everything she had done was forgivable, and what she had done was not serious at all.
"Jiang Xiaohua, I won't help you. Everything you've done is unforgivable." Jiang Anxia looked coldly at Jiang Xiaohua on the ground.
She has to take responsibility for everything she did; she shouldn't expect anyone to forgive her.
"Jiang Anxia, do you really have to treat me like this?" Jiang Xiaohua was furious. She had begged her so much, yet Jiang Anxia still wouldn't agree.
She shouldn't have come to beg Jiang Anxia.
"Jiang Xiaohua, why would you think I would help you?" Jiang Anxia smiled coldly.
Jiang Xiaohua still thinks she's the same soft-hearted person as the original owner! What is she thinking?
