Chapter 2 Strange



At the time, Jiang Nuan thought the two were playing a prank on each other and was so agitated that she wanted to curse them.

When I saw my withered, yellow hands, like old tree bark, I realized that I should have been gone with the plane crash.

Overwhelmed with excitement, she fainted and didn't wake up until half an hour later. It was during that time that she managed to grasp a fragment of the original owner's memories and learn some information.

Jiang Nuan was originally twenty-six years old, but now she is thirty-six, a full ten years older.

Jiang Nuan was originally a single woman, but now she has sons, daughters, and even grandchildren.

The original Jiang Nuan called herself a great beauty, but the current Jiang refers to herself as an old woman, an old lady, or an old woman...

The contrast was too great, and Jiang Nuan was already finding it hard to bear. To make matters worse, the original owner of this body was the kind of person who was difficult to get along with. She had a premonition that she would have to take the blame for a lot of things in the future.

With a sigh, Jiang Nuan resigned herself to her fate and comforted herself, "No matter what, I'm still alive, and I've even received an incredible opportunity. Jiang Nuan, you should cherish your blessings."

After comforting herself, Jiang Nuan felt much calmer and began to lazily bask in the sun again.

Suddenly moved to a different place and without the original owner's memories, Jiang Nuan appeared outwardly normal, but inwardly she was extremely flustered, and could only try to fill the void of helplessness in her heart with the warmth of the sunlight.

Warm and cozy from the sun, she slowly closed her eyes.

Suddenly, a group of children ran in from outside.

"Mom, we're back! We caught lots of fish!" a cheerful voice rang out.

Jiang Nuan opened her eyes and looked at the group of little kids who had entered. Her face immediately turned cold. "Little Four, Little Five, didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to bring Da Niu and Er Niu into the water?"

She herself didn't realize that when disciplining her child, she was menacing and had a harsh expression.

"Grandma, don't blame Uncle and Aunt, we went there secretly." A thin, dark-skinned child spoke timidly from the crowd.

"Mother, I was wrong." Huang Xiaowu's eyes reddened with fright. "Mother is not feeling well, so my brother and I wanted to catch some fish to help her recover."

As she spoke, Huang Xiaowu burst into tears, and after she cried, the rest of the boy, Luo Botou, started crying too.

Immediately, the courtyard was filled with the sound of weeping.

Upon hearing the commotion, Wang and Xie rushed over immediately.

"Mother, did they make you angry?" Wang asked anxiously.

Madam Xie simply reprimanded the children, "How could you be so insensible? Grandma isn't feeling well, why did you make her angry? You're not allowed to eat tonight."

Huang Xiaosi, with red eyes, looked stubbornly at Jiang Nuan, "Mother, I did nothing wrong."

"Xiao Si, how can you be so insensible? Do you want to drive your mother to her death?" Madam Xie looked at Huang Xiao Si with exasperation.

"I did nothing wrong, I did nothing wrong!" Huang Xiaosi shouted stubbornly.

"you……"

"Second daughter-in-law, shut up." Jiang Nuan interrupted Xie Shi and slowly walked towards the children. "I can feel your filial piety, and I am very pleased that you are so sensible."

She changed the subject and continued, "However, you did make a mistake this time, especially you, Xiao Si. You shouldn't have gone to the river to catch fish, and you shouldn't have brought your sister and nephew with you."

"Mother," Huang Xiaosi couldn't hold back her tears, which kept welling up in her eyes, "I just wanted to catch fish to nourish you."

Hearing Huang Xiaosi's sincere words, Jiang Nuan's eyes also reddened, and she kept sighing in her heart how fortunate the Jiang family was to have such good children.

She softened her expression and her tone became gentle, "Mother knows, but the water is dangerous. You are still too young to go into the water."

"If you accidentally fall into the water, what will your mother do? I would rather die of illness than let you be in danger."

"Mom, I was wrong, I was naughty." Huang Xiaowu cried and hugged Jiang Nuan's leg to admit his mistake.

"Grandma, I was wrong too." The little ones also admitted their mistake.

"Mother, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have taken them into the water." A hint of regret flashed in Huang Xiaosi's eyes.

“Mother, I knew you were doing this for their own good. There’s no one better than you,” Wang said, her eyes red.

"mother……"

"Second daughter-in-law, don't speak." Jiang Nuan was speechless. She guessed that Xie was about to flatter her, so she immediately stopped her.

Xie looked at Jiang Nuan with a wronged expression, but obediently kept her mouth tightly shut.

Turning her head, Jiang Nuan continued to educate the children, "You made a mistake, so you have to be punished. You are not allowed to eat vegetables tonight."

"Mom, can't we even eat pickled vegetables?" Huang Xiaosi asked timidly.

"No!" Jiang Nuan firmly refused. "You should learn a lesson from this incident. You are not allowed to go near the water without an adult, understand?"

"Can we have soup? We'll just have fish soup," Huang Xiaosi licked his lips. "We haven't had meat in a long time, I want to try it."

Jiang Nuan's eyes stung again. She took a breath and gently patted Huang Xiaosi's head. "We won't eat fish today. We'll eat it tomorrow, together."

"Really?" Huang Xiaowu's eyes flashed with surprise. He blinked, but finally sniffled and refused, "No, Mother's health isn't good, she needs to take care of herself."

“Yes, Grandma needs to nourish herself, we, we won’t eat.” Da Niu chimed in.

Jiang, what have you done to deserve such wonderful children and grandchildren? At this moment, Jiang Nuan was truly jealous.

"Alright, I said we'll eat tomorrow, so we'll eat tomorrow. Don't just stand here, go get to work." Jiang Nuan wasn't used to such a touching scene, so she pretended to be angry and said with a stern face.

She thought the little ones would be disappointed, but to her surprise, they became happy instead.

Huang Xiaosi immediately stopped crying and started laughing, "Mom, I'll go chop up the pig feed right now."

Huang Xiaowu grinned widely, revealing two gap-toothed teeth in the middle. "Mom, I'm going to collect some eggs so I can make you some steamed egg custard."

"Grandma, let's go collect eggs too," Da Niu said.

Wang, with her bound feet, said, "Mother, I'll wash the wild vegetables and dry them into dried vegetables."

"Mom, I just finished washing half of the clothes, I'll continue washing the rest."

In the blink of an eye, the group surrounding Jiang Nuan happily went off to work.

"What's going on?" Jiang Nuan asked, puzzled. "Why are these people working so enthusiastically? I was just saying it casually."

The Huang family was strange and confused Jiang Nuan. She felt that these people cared too much about the Jiang family, treating her words as if she were the Empress Dowager, and making her the center of everything.

That's strange, really strange.

Jiang Nuan was puzzled. Since she was new to the place, she didn't rush to find out what was going on. She thought for a moment and got up to find Wang Shi in the backyard.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, it's early spring and the children are freezing after soaking in the water. Go and make them some ginger tea."

“Okay, Mother, I’ll go right away.” Madam Wang agreed with a smile.

Seeing this, Jiang Nuan nodded and went back to her room. She herself did not realize how naturally she was facing Wang Shi.

Logically speaking, when a person is reborn from another body, the soul and the body should need a period of adjustment. However, Jiang Nuan did not feel this way. Since she woke up, there was no obstruction at all, as if this was originally her body.
