Jiang Li ran in from outside carrying firewood on his back, holding a small cloth bag in one hand as if it was precious.
He threw the firewood in the corner and walked over carefully with a small cloth bag.
"Sister, look, is this the...silver flower you took me to find last time?"
Jiang Wan opened the cloth bag and was surprised to see a bag full of honeysuckle.
"Brother, where did you find this honeysuckle?"
Jiang Li looked up and glanced at the yard. Finding that no one noticed them, he quietly urged Jiang Wan and spoke with his head down.
"It's where you found the tree last time. I walked a little further in and found a small patch full of these flowers. I picked some and brought them back."
"Brother, how dare you go into the mountains?"
There are jackals, tigers and leopards in the deep mountains. How could a child with bare hands like him be so bold as to walk in without caring about his life?
Jiang Wan quickly pulled him over, and Jiang Li, worried about her, also spoke quickly.
"Sister, sister, don't worry, I'm fine."
Jiang Wan heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he was indeed alive and well. However, he still needed to be taught a lesson for entering the mountains without permission.
"Brother, I told you before that you can't go into the mountains alone. Now you don't listen to me?"
Jiang Wan turned her head away with a stiff face and no longer looked at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li panicked for a moment, and the cloth bag in his hand fell to the ground without paying any attention, and hurried forward.
"Sister, don't be angry, I was wrong..."
"I never dare to go to the mountains alone again."
I know that he wants to find more things to supplement the family income, but the prerequisite is that he can ensure his own safety.
She sighed and bent down to pick up the cloth bag on the ground.
"Brother, remember this: always prioritize your own safety and never put yourself in danger."
"Sister, I understand."
Jiang Hao blinked. Although he didn't understand what they were saying, he raised his head and spoke to make his presence known.
"Sister, I can do that too!"
"Okay, you all need to be well."
"Come on, let's go inside first."
The fields have been busy lately and the autumn harvest is approaching, but Jiang Zexing still has to go to the fields to work early, otherwise he will not be able to handle the harvest.
In previous years' autumn harvest, Jiang Zeshan, needless to say, never even touched this kind of work. As for the second wife, they would be as lazy as possible. In the end, if the grain could not be harvested, it was still the fault of the first wife, and Jiang Anfu would only blame the first wife for being lazy.
When he came back today, the room was unusually quiet. Even Jiang Hao sat quietly on the bed, sitting obediently beside Jiang Wan, watching her take care of the honeysuckle that Jiang Li brought back.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Zexing took off his coat and put it on the wooden chair beside him.
Su Yun looked up at him, then quickly looked away. Jiang Wan didn't look at her either. She only raised her head after she had picked all the honeysuckle in the bag.
"Dad, Mom has something to tell you."
"Ahao, big brother, come out with sister, let's weave baskets in the yard."
We made backpacks for them to use, which made it much more convenient when they were working.
"Sister, I want a small backpack too."
Jiang Hao blinked his eyes, staring at her with sparkling eyes full of desire.
"Okay, I'll make one for you too!"
She raised her hand and tapped the tip of Jiang Hao's nose, then turned her head to instruct Jiang Li.
"Brother, don't worry about the herbs when you go into the mountains. Sister has other plans for this matter."
Jiang Li nodded without hesitation, "Okay, I'll listen to you, sister."
His movements were no slower than Jiang Wan's, and the basket in his hand had already begun to take shape.
After a long time, Jiang Zexing walked out of the house and saw the three siblings weaving baskets in the yard. It was a happy scene. However, when they saw him, Jiang Hao took the initiative to pull Jiang Wan's sleeve and whispered.
"Sister, Dad is out."
Put down what you are holding and stand up.
"father."
The tone was neither salty nor bland, without excessive enthusiasm.
Jiang Zexing felt bitter. He naturally heard the alienation in Jiang Wan's words. "Wanwan...never mind. Go see your mother."
"Okay, my daughter will go in first."
After saying that, he walked right past Jiang Zexing and entered the house regardless of his expression. Jiang Li and Jiang Hao exchanged a glance and quickly followed.
After a long while, Jiang Zexing moved his feet and walked to where they had been sitting before. He sat down, took the baskets they had not finished weaving, and continued weaving them.
"Wanwan, it's not good for you to be so cold to your father, right?"
Su Yun touched her hand, worry in his eyes.
"Mom, there's nothing wrong."
"If we can't figure out Dad's messy account, we won't have a good life."
"Not to mention, now that you have younger brothers and sisters, even for the sake of Hao and Li, we can't go on like this."
Jiang Zexing knew better than anyone how the Jiang family treated them, but he could not let go of the naiveté in his heart.
If it was something else, Jiang Wan might not take it seriously, but what happened to the Jiang family could not be tolerated. They didn't deserve it!
Su Yun remained silent and did not refute in the end.
This thought has been lingering in her mind for a long time, especially now that Wanwan got into trouble and Ah Hao was injured, she couldn't bear it any longer.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Dinner consisted of steamed buns and dumpling soup that Su Yun had made earlier, one bowl for each person. There were also a few fried dishes and a plate of meat on the table.
However, the plate of meat was placed steadily in front of Jiang Zeshan, along with some white flour buns.
In front of the eldest family, there were only black steamed buns.
Jiang Wan reached out and took two, gave them to her two younger brothers, and then, under the murderous gaze of Old Zhang, took out a white flour bun and placed it in front of Su Yun.
"Mom, eat this to replenish your body."
"this……"
Su Yun glanced at Old Zhang, and when he met her murderous gaze, his eyes trembled slightly.
"Eat, eat, eat, all day long. You don't dare to work, you just pick the best food. You must be a starving ghost!"
"Grandma, my mother is weak now and needs to be nourished."
Old Mrs. Zhang stood up, pinched her waist and was about to curse at Jiang Wan, but was pulled back by Jiang Yue.
"Mom, my sister-in-law is pregnant now, so she really needs to be nourished."
"Come, sister-in-law, this meat is nutritious. You must eat more."
Jiang Yue smiled and moved the bowl next to her to the center of the table.
When Jiang Wan heard this, she became alert. She looked up and met Jiang Yue's smiling eyes.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
"this……"
"My dear wife, eat. You really need to replenish your energy now."
After all, the one in their belly is the grandson of their Jiang family, and they cannot let him suffer any loss.
"Mom, it's okay, eat."
Jiang Wan gave her a reassuring look, and Su Yun finally felt relieved.
After the meal, Jiang Wan felt more and more that something was wrong. Jiang Zeshan didn't say a word at the dinner table.
He definitely didn't come back this time for a break, there must be some other reason...
