The next morning, Jiang Wanwan woke up to the sound of roosters crowing.
In the courtyard, the voices of Grandma Jiang and others could already be faintly heard.
Jiang Wanwan hugged the blanket and turned over.
The mosquito coils I lit last night were very effective at repelling mosquitoes. I wasn't woken up by any mosquito bites all night, and I didn't hear any annoying buzzing from them.
Moreover, the entire house still retained the pleasant fragrance of osmanthus blossoms. This indicated that her renovation approach was correct.
This success delighted Jiang Wanwan.
She rolled out of bed and then rummaged through the trunk to find a set of clothes to change into.
She opened the door and went outside.
Hearing the door open, Grandma Jiang nimbly darted over.
"Wanwan, you're up? Did you sleep well last night?" Grandma Jiang's face lit up with a bright smile as she looked at Jiang Wanwan with loving eyes.
Jiang Wanwan said, "It smells very good. Grandma, how about you? Did you sleep well?"
Grandma Jiang slapped her thigh and said happily, "It smells wonderful, all thanks to the mosquito coils you made. I only lit a small piece," she said, holding up a finger to indicate, "and all the mosquitoes were killed by the coils, so I was able to sleep soundly until dawn. You truly are my eldest granddaughter, beautiful, smart, and very capable."
Jiang Wanwan chuckled and began to flatter her, "It's precisely because Grandma is so smart and capable that her granddaughter is so smart and capable too."
As she spoke, she walked to the water vat under the eaves and began brushing her teeth and washing her face.
Grandma Jiang was deeply impressed by her eldest granddaughter's praise, and her bent back straightened instantly.
That's right! It's precisely because she's smart and capable that she gave birth to such a smart and capable eldest granddaughter.
She knew it! Who did her smart and capable granddaughter resemble? Turns out, she resembled herself!
While brushing her teeth, Jiang Wanwan glanced at the old lady who was standing there laughing non-stop and found it somewhat amusing.
She had just finished washing up and was ready to have breakfast.
The family sat around the table, each with a bowl of thick millet porridge in front of them.
Jiang Wanwan sat down in her seat, picked up the bowl in front of her, and took a sip of the thick millet porridge. She looked at Zhu Shi and praised, "Mmm, Second Aunt, the millet porridge you cooked is really delicious."
Zhu, who was engrossed in eating her porridge, suddenly looked up at Jiang Wanwan with a delighted expression. "Hehe, if you like it, eat more. There's more in the pot."
Under the light of the oil lamp, Jiang Wanwan was utterly shocked when she clearly saw the dark circles under Zhu's eyes.
She stared blankly at Madam Zhu and asked, "Second Aunt, didn't you light any mosquito coils in your room last night? Why do you have such dark circles under your eyes?"
Zhu smiled shyly, "Yes, yes, just... Hehe, thinking that our family is going to make money selling mosquito coils today, Second Aunt was too excited and couldn't sleep well all night."
“That’s right. I couldn’t sleep at all last night because of this.” Uncle Jiang nodded vigorously. “I kept thinking about how to attract business and how to sell mosquito coils.”
"I'm not sleepy at all either. I'm so excited about how well our mosquito coils are going to sell," Mrs. Hu said, slapping her thigh in agreement.
Jiang Wanwan looked up and scanned the crowd, noticing that everyone had exaggerated dark circles under their eyes.
Well, it turns out that apart from her sleeping soundly, everyone in the Jiang family was so excited that they tossed and turned all night!
However, even though everyone hadn't rested well, they were all very energetic.
