Although the process was tortuous, the result was good.
Jiang Dalang carried a large bag of grain wrapped in oilcloth and walked back with one foot deep and one foot shallow, followed by his second grandfather's family, his father and the village chief.
The two houses were far apart, and one had to cross half of the village and walk on the muddy road. One could see that some houses had been flooded, and could hear curses from time to time.
This world leaves no way for poor people to survive.
Soon the group returned home, and Qian Xiuzhu immediately went to greet them.
Jiang Huaixu stood under the eaves and waved to the two children. Tian Ya and Xiao Feng, who were surrounded by a group of adults, immediately ran over.
"Brother Sanlang, Sister Weiwei, Sister Axu."
Tian Ya shouted crisply, and Xiao Feng also shouted, but he seemed to be developmentally delayed and his speech was not very clear.
Jiang Sanlang picked up Xiaofeng directly, and Xiaofeng giggled happily.
Jiang Wei didn't like children very much, so she just responded.
Jiang Huaixu took out two dragon beard candies from somewhere and stuffed one into the little kid's pocket.
Just as he stood up, two hands suddenly appeared in front of him. They were Jiang Wei and Jiang Sanlang.
Before she could make a move, a hand slapped both hands away with a loud "snap". "Are you still kids? You're not ashamed to ask your little sister for candy."
Jiang Huaixu looked up and saw Jiang Erlang slowly withdrawing his hand with a look of disgust on his face.
Jiang Sanlang and Jiang Wei, who were beaten so hard that they wanted to jump up and down, endured the pain, stood there obediently and listened to the lecture, not daring to move again.
In the past, they were most afraid of the second brother, because he was very scary when he had a gloomy face. Now they are still most afraid of the second brother, because he not only has a gloomy face, but is also very strong.
Jiang Huaixu curled his eyes at Jiang Erlang, and took out three dragon beard candies and shared them with the three of them.
Jiang Erlang was embarrassed to take it, so Jiang Huaixu took advantage of him not paying attention and stuffed the candy into his mouth.
After completing this set of smooth movements, she didn't care about Jiang Erlang's expression and pulled Tian Ya and Xiao Feng into the house.
Jiang Wei and Jiang Sanlang looked at each other and followed him into the house.
Jiang Erlang coughed softly, and while holding a candy in his mouth, he helped his second grandfather and second grandmother pack up their things.
Dinner was prepared by Zheng Liniang, Qian Xiuzhu and Second Grandma together. Zheng Liniang learned to cook very quickly and no longer needed Jiang Huaixu to guide her.
With dry rice, five dishes and a soup, everyone's stomachs were full.
Second Madam hadn't eaten such delicious food in a long time. She was in high spirits while eating, and when she was in high spirits, she couldn't restrain her words. "Brother Mingde, your family has finally had a happy life after suffering so much. You must not be soft-hearted and let others ruin it. Old Lady Liu wasn't a good person, so how could the son she raised be a good one?"
"That little bastard has never learned his lesson. A few days ago, when the sun was still bright, Mrs. Liu was still scolding him for being heartless. What she meant was that he was still gambling with the family's money! Even if he is your son, he is still a coward. You can't let your stupidity get you involved in the eldest wife's family..."
"Old woman, what are you talking about?" Second Grandpa scolded in a low voice, and then said to the silent old man Jiang, "Women are the most powerful in talking. Don't listen to her nonsense. Brother, you can take us in. I am very grateful in my heart..."
"What are you talking about..."
The meal ended with some pleasantries exchanged between us.
At night, Tian Ya slept in the same room with Jiang Huaixu and Jiang Wei, Xiao Feng slept in the same room with Jiang Erlang and Jiang Sanlang, the adults, Second Grandma and Qian Xiuzhu slept in the same room, and Second Grandpa, Old Man Jiang and Old Master Jiang squeezed into the same room, barely enough to fit in.
Jiang Huaixu lay on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, and couldn't fall asleep for a while.
Perhaps it is the butterfly effect that causes the world to no longer develop according to the situation in Qian Xiuzhu's dream, which also means that the future has become unpredictable again.
In fact, she could just leave. She has a system, and as long as she has points, she can fly anywhere.
When using the resources in the mall, you don’t have to go to great lengths to avoid being noticed, and it’s as cost-effective as you think.
Exhaling lightly, Jiang Huaixu carefully took away Tian Ya's little hand on her arm, put on his clothes, sat up and walked off the bed.
She walked out the door as quietly as possible and sat down on the wooden stool under the eaves.
The summer heat had subsided a lot in the past few days. Qian Xiuzhu and Zheng Li'niang were worried that their family members would catch a cold, so they hurriedly prepared three or four pieces of cotton clothing, including the one she was wearing.
As a special forces soldier, she was used to being alone, with few friends besides her comrades. In modern times, she was not like today, with a harmless smile. Instead, the fierceness in her eyes reflected her true emotions, rather than the curled corners of her mouth.
Before she became a special forces soldier, her smile didn't have such complicated meanings. Now this environment has relaxed her tense nerves a lot. It is undeniable that she is a little nostalgic for such peaceful days.
[Host, Jiang Erlang seems to have noticed your presence.]
Jiang Huaixu's body stiffened and he wanted to stand up, but then he changed his mind and sat back down.
Jiang Erlang must have a lot of questions to ask her, and she also has questions to ask him, so she might as well take this opportunity to make things clear.
"Why aren't you sleeping?"
Jiang Erlang's night vision ability is much better than before. Even in such dim conditions, he can still see Jiang Huaixu standing by the wall.
Jiang Huaixu answered the question irrelevantly, "Second brother, are you hungry?"
Jiang Erlang: "...what do you want to eat?"
"Come with me."
Jiang Huaixu stood up and walked west along the eaves to the end, walked through the rain, and came to the kitchen door.
