“Your family has carpentry skills and the money to send your grandson to learn to read, but we can’t. We’re lucky if we can even fill our stomachs!”
Several women carried wooden basins and chatted as they walked towards the river. In the village, people washed their clothes by the river, and not many families had their own wells.
Gradually, those who went to the fields and those who went to work left, and the village quieted down.
In the Jiang family courtyard, Jiang Shuyun was reading in the study. He needed to familiarize himself with many things about the original owner of this body.
