There was no hostility in their eyes when they saw Rong Xi. Instead, they politely invited her into the house.
Although the house is not big, it is very clean.
As soon as Rong Xi sat down, Jiang Xun's adoptive mother poured tea over.
"Miss Jiang, there's nothing much to offer. Please have some tea."
"Thanks!"
There was silence in the room for a long time and no one spoke. Jiang Xun was very conflicted. He had finally found his sister and he didn't want to be separated from her again, but his adoptive parents were also very good to him.
Rong Xi also spoke at this time.
"Uncle and aunt, thank you so much for taking care of Xiaoxun over the years. If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to him."
"Miss Jiang, please stop saying that. We really like Xiaoxun. You should know that we don't have any children of our own, so we have always treated this child as our own."
Jiang Xun's adoptive mother had tears in her eyes. She knew that after Jiang Xun found his relatives, he would leave as the people in the village said, and she felt very reluctant to let him go.
Jiang Xun's adoptive mother spoke again.
"If Miss Jiang wants to take Xiao Xun away, please treat him well in the future. This child has had a hard time."
Although Jiang Xun's adoptive father hasn't said anything yet, Rong Xi can see that he is also very upset.
"Uncle and aunt, I came here today to tell you this. Now that I have found Xiaoxun, he will definitely stay by my side."
When the two heard this, their faces became even uglier, even Jiang Xun was the same.
"If uncle and aunt are willing, you can also come and live with me in the city. You are still Xiaoxun's parents, and I will treat you as my elders."
When Jiang Xun heard this, he looked at his adoptive parents expectantly. Although there was joy in their eyes, it disappeared in an instant.
Jiang Xun's adoptive father also spoke at this time.
"Thank you Miss Jiang for your kindness. As long as you are all well, Xiaoxun's mother and I will be relieved. We will not go to the city to cause you trouble. We have been farmers for generations. Going to the city will not help you and will only add to your burden."
Rong Xi was very disappointed seeing Jiang Xun's look. He was a sensible child, and even so, he did not force his adoptive parents to live with him. He was also afraid of causing trouble for his sister.
"Uncle, what are you talking about? If you can go to Xiaoxun, I will be happy. You should also know that Xiaoxun's parents and I have passed away. You are now Xiaoxun's relatives and my relatives."
"this……"
Seeing that his adoptive father was unwilling to agree, Jiang Xun also tried to persuade him.
"Dad and Mom, just agree to it."
"Xiao Xun, mom and dad can't go and cause trouble for you."
Rong Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I won't cause any trouble for me. Maybe I'll have to trouble you to help me take care of the child later."
Rong Xi was wearing loose clothes today, so no one could see her pregnant belly.
"you……"
"Yes, I'm pregnant now, and I also run a small business. The father of the child is not around, so I really need your help."
The two looked at each other and then agreed with a smile.
Rong Xi actually prepared some money. At first, she wanted to give them some money, but seeing that the two had a good relationship with Jiang Xun and they were not bad people, she changed her mind temporarily.
Jiang Xun's adoptive parents raised some chickens, ducks and geese at home, and they couldn't take them all with them. It was hot these days anyway, so Rong Xi decided to stay here for a few days.
Since he had nothing to do anyway, Rong Xi simply had someone set up a stall at the entrance of the village and started collecting grain.
Rong Xi also invited Jiang Xun's adoptive father to help with the weighing. He felt happy that he had found something he could do, and he was no longer afraid of causing trouble for the child by following him.
Now he is famous in the village. He picked up a child and found huge wealth.
However, the villagers were all simple and honest, and they didn't say anything unpleasant. Everyone was happy to be able to sell the remaining grain at a good price.
In the evening, Jiang Xun's adoptive mother prepared two large tables of food for them, and Rong Xi ate more, which was a rare occasion.
It would take a few days to harvest the grain here before it could be transported to the city, and people would also be needed to guard it. Rong Xi left two of Wei Siye's men and Jiang Xun's adoptive father here, and the rest returned to the city.
Rong Xi received a letter from Wei Siye as soon as he returned to the city. This was the first letter he received in almost three months since he left.
The flamboyant handwriting and the small flower on the envelope reminded Rong Xi of Wei Siye's mood when he wrote the letter.
When he opened the envelope, a faint fragrance wafted from inside, the same fragrance that Wei Siye smelled after every bath.
"Jiao Jiao'er, do you miss me?"
There was space for a few words, and there were a few colorless scratches, as if the writer had crossed them out while struggling with how to write this sentence, and then changed to a new piece of paper.
Rong Xi found it a little funny.
"Jiao Jiao'er, do you miss me? I should have brought you here earlier. You really miss me so much. I miss you every time I have free time. I always dream that you will be found by the Meng family. But don't worry, they don't have time to look for you now because I have caused them some trouble.
You said you would wait for me. I will come back to you in a few months. You don't need to write to me. I can't tell you my address right now. This is my phone number. If you miss me, call me."
Rong Xi read the letter on August 13th, and now it is August 25th. It seems that it was really not easy to get this letter.
Rong Xi said something to Jiang Xun and went out. He took Qingyu to a telephone booth and dialed the number on it.
But the phone rang for a long time but no one answered. When someone finally answered, it was not Wei Siye.
"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Wei Siye."
"He's not here right now. I'll pass on your message if you have anything."
"Tell him that Jiang Rongxi is looking for him."
"OK."
The call was quickly hung up, and Rong Xi came out feeling a little lost.
She also wanted to install a phone, but it was still very troublesome to install a phone now, and she was afraid that it would expose her whereabouts.
Rong Xi didn't make the call after all. Just as he was about to go back, he saw a Japanese military vehicle passing by.
She was still wondering why there were Japanese here when she saw Meng Zimo talking to the Japanese in the car.
She has been busy collecting grain recently and has not paid attention to the current situation of the Meng family.
"System, did the Meng family defect to the Japanese?"
System [Yes, Meng Tianrui has been unconscious for a long time, and Meng Zimo finally found a Japanese hospital.]
"You bastard."
Rong Xi walked back angrily, and Wei Siye came back from the mission and said that Jiang Rongxi called her, and the gloom on his face instantly dissipated.
He has been missing that little devil so much these past few months. The mission here cannot be done without him, otherwise he would have rushed back and kissed her till she was dizzy.
