Chapter 69: A Distant Guest



Seeing that Jiang Wan didn't take her words to heart at all, the smile on Lin Er's wife's face immediately disappeared and she started cursing at her.

"So you only accept other people's but not mine? Are you fed up with me?"

Jiang Wan glanced at her and said, "Second Sister-in-law Lin, why are you saying things that you already know? Besides, didn't you say before that you wouldn't sell it to me?"

"I…"

Mrs. Lin Er was speechless after being confronted by her.

What she said before was true, but now she is looking for her again, isn't she? Is there anyone who treats customers like this?

"You also said that, that was before, now I am not looking for you again?"

"Tsk—don't you find what Auntie said funny? If you come back to me, I have to take your things? Do you really think I'm stupid?"

"However, since Auntie was so confident before, why not take it to town and try it out? Maybe someone will want it?"

After saying this, Jiang Wan left without looking back.

Sister-in-law Lin Er watched her leave, her face livid. "Ah! Who do you think you are? I'm really asking you for something on my behalf? I don't believe it. They're all herbs. Yours can be sold, but mine can't!"

After cursing inwardly, Mrs. Lin Er carried her things and left the place.

Jiang Wan didn't take this little episode seriously and turned around and went straight home. However, as soon as she arrived in the yard, she saw that half of the door of her house had been hammered in.

Her eyes flickered and she hurried in.

As soon as I walked in, I saw that the yard was a bit messy. Many of the wooden chairs that Jiang Zexing had originally made were broken into pieces.

"Dad? Mom?"

“Squeak—”

The door of the main room was opened and Su Yun walked out. Seeing Jiang Wan coming back, he quickly waved to her.

"Mom, what happened at home?"

Su Yun sighed, and Jiang Wan reacted with a serious expression, "Are grandparents here?"

"Did they do all this?"

How dare you come here? Do you really think they are pushovers? So easy to bully?

As soon as she turned around, she was grabbed by Su Yun.

"Wanwan, something happened at the old house. Don't go over there and bring bad luck upon yourself."

"Your grandparents came to our house to make trouble this time, and your father is also feeling unhappy. He has gone out to work in the fields now."

If Jiang Wan went there now, she might be affected.

Today, Old Zhang and Jiang Anfu came here to ask for money, saying that their family could no longer make ends meet and they wanted to move in and live with them, but Jiang Zexing refused.

As a result, they were scolded by Old Zhang and Jiang Anfu. Even so, they could not let go.

They don't want to go through the old days again.

As for Mu Hong, he followed Jiang Li to the foot of the mountain. He had been here for so long but had never had a proper stroll.

Jiang Wan fell silent and glanced at the main hall. "I understand, mother."

She was too excited just now and couldn't control her emotions.

Taking down the backpack, "Mom, let me pack up the things I brought back from the mountains first."

"good."

She remembered the vegetable seeds she had planted in the corner of the wall, and lifted the rag on top, revealing the lush green vegetables inside.

Those vegetables grow better than those in the cave.

She patiently combed the seedlings, pulled out all those that were growing poorly, and put them together with the vegetables she brought back from the cave.

He loosened the soil in the vegetable patch in the yard, planted the seedlings brought back from the mountains, and then went to the kitchen.

"Sister——"

As she was thinking, she felt someone grabbing her clothes. She looked down and saw Jiang Hao had walked in and was looking at her.

"Little brother? Why are you here?"

"Sister, grandma and grandpa are so annoying. They always bully daddy."

Hearing this, she paused, put down the vegetables in her hand, squatted down, and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"Don't be sad, little brother."

She touched Jiang Hao's head and began to comfort him.

"If grandpa and grandma don't treat us as family, then we don't have to take it to heart. But they raised Dad after all, so we can't go too far. So, these words, don't say them in front of Dad, understand?"

Jiang Hao seemed to understand but nodded anyway.

"Next time you meet someone from the old house, stay away from them. Got it?"

"Um."

Jiang Hao nodded.

"Okay, just sit here and I'll make you something delicious, okay?"

"good."

Jiang Hao blinked, turned around and ran out. A moment later, he ran back with a doll in his hand.

"A little puppet made by my sister."

Jiang Wan chuckled, turned around, washed the vegetables, blanched them in hot water, and took them out for later use.

At the same time, a carriage slowly drove into Qingshan Village.

After a while, a man got off the carriage.

"Madam, may I ask where Jiang Wan lives?"

An aunt who was called heard his voice and turned to look.

"What do you want to do with Jiang girl?"

The person who was called was not someone else, but Qu Ning, who had bought the Jiang Wan cloth doll before.

She looked at the person in front of her warily. This person was well-dressed and might not even be the real person. There were other people in the carriage.

Why would such a wealthy family look for Jiang Wan?

Now when he heard them asking about Jiang Wan, he couldn't help but feel alert.

Seeing her so vigilant, Shopkeeper Chen felt helpless.

"Madam, please don't misunderstand us. We have no ill intentions. We simply came to discuss something with Jiang Wan, but we didn't know where she lived, so we asked."
