Chapter 19

After dinner, the question of who would wash the dishes arose.

The three brothers decided to settle it with a game of rock-paper-scissors.

The eldest brother, Jiang Yuanshan, calmly said, “Rock.”

The second brother, Jiang Yuanfeng, smiled slightly, “Rock.”

The youngest brother, Jiang Yuanyang, stared at his own scissors hand in disbelief, “Me again?”

Jiang Zhizhi laughed from the side.

Haha, the youngest brother, this silly goose, hadn’t noticed that his elder brothers had colluded this time.

Jiang Yuanfeng was delighted, and he winked at Jiang Zhizhi.

Shh~

A little secret~

Little brother is for being tricked, you know.

Jiang Zhizhi chuckled and gave him an “okay” gesture.

Because there wasn’t much fresh and interesting activity in the countryside besides farming and chatting, everyone went to bed early.

The Jiang family’s toilet was built behind the main hall. Ding Xianglan took Jiang Zhizhi to the toilet to shower.

No matter what Jiang Zhizhi said, Ding Xianglan believed in her heart that her niece was just shy.

Knowing that this was Zhizhi’s first time showering in a rural place, and worried that she might not be used to it, Ding Xianglan simply stood not far away, guarding Jiang Zhizhi outside, giving her a sense of security.

After Jiang Zhizhi finished showering, they returned to the room together.

Ding Xianglan said with concern, “The conditions at home are like this. If you’re not used to it, Zhizhi, tell your aunt. I’ll come and sleep with you.”

Jiang Zhizhi shook her head frantically, like a rattle, “No need, I’m not afraid of the dark.”

Ding Xianglan knew her niece was thin-skinned, and she had been traveling for a long time, so she was also very tired. She turned her head and went back to her room.

Jiang Zhizhi closed the door and took a deep breath of relief.

Oh my god, she had always been used to sleeping alone since she was a child. There was a kind of love that her aunt thought she was afraid!

Afraid that she wouldn’t be able to adapt to the countryside, worried that she would be shy and not fit in with the Jiang family, and even more worried that she wouldn’t be accustomed to rural life.

But it didn’t matter. Jiang Zhizhi was in a good mood. Her apricot eyes were dark and bright, and she rolled around on the bed.

The bed wasn’t just a bed, it was her paradise for slacking off!

Wasn’t it good to have a bed to sleep on?

When she was on missions, she used the sky as her blanket and the earth as her bed. The sounds of various forest animals were her lullabies, and the evening breeze was her cradle song.

Compared to that, this was much better.

I wonder how Mom and Dad are doing now.

If Mom and Dad’s place could be closer to her…

Jiang Zhizhi was really tired after a day of travel. As soon as her little head hit the pillow, she fell into a deep sleep after a few seconds.

……

In the eastern room.

Jiang Xiangliang saw his wife tossing and turning for the fifteenth time, and he couldn’t help but laugh.

“Xianglan, are you making pancakes?”

Ding Xianglan turned over and faced Jiang Xiangliang. She hit him playfully, and said with concern, “Go away! I’m just worried that Zhizhi can’t sleep.

Look at her, a little girl traveling thousands of miles from the south to our north. Not only is the living environment different, but the customs and habits of the north and south are also different. Even the people around her will take time to get used to.

A good girl suddenly comes to the countryside, she will have some emotional ups and downs.

During the day, we can do our best to accompany her and comfort her.

But at night, this child might not be able to hide her longing for her parents, and she will secretly cry under the covers.”

Jiang Xiangliang patted his wife’s back reassuringly.

“My brother and sister-in-law’s situation is really hard to say.

I heard from the village head today that there will be a group of people coming down to several villages nearby in the next few days. I’ll go and inquire to see if Xiang Sheng and Linting are among them.”

“God bless!” Ding Xianglan was about to be overwhelmed with excitement.

“Xiangliang, keep an eye on the situation. We treat Zhizhi as our own daughter, so naturally we can’t bear to see her suffer.”

Oh, God, please bless my second brother and sister-in-law to be safe and sound along the way.

Hopefully, they will be assigned to our village or nearby!

……

On the other side.

Jiang Weimin, the old village head of Dajiang Village, finally finished his day’s work.

When he got home, his wife, Li Hong, had already cooked dinner.

Thinking about today’s events, Li Hong couldn’t help but laugh, “It seems like our Dajiang Village will be lively for a while!”

Jiang Weimin couldn’t help but smile along, “That’s the situation. To be honest, I’m quite envious of the Jiang family. They suddenly have a daughter, and they can’t be more delighted.”

“Although this girl doesn’t seem to be able to do much work.”

Jiang Fengdeng, the eldest son, buried his head in his meal, and Wang Yezi, the eldest daughter-in-law, curled her lips.

All this talk was nonsense.

Who wouldn’t cherish their son, but instead cherish a daughter?

And it’s just a niece!

It’s not born from your own belly, what’s the use of spoiling her, it’s not your own anyway?

Wang Yezi successfully squeezed into the front row today. Seeing Jiang Zhizhi’s appearance, her first thought was that she was pretty but useless.

I wonder if the Jiang family will make her work in the fields. She’s so delicate and tender, how could she stand it?

Jiang Fengshou, who was sitting across the table, rolled his eyes directly.

“What’s there to envy? You want another daughter, right?”

Jiang Fengshou was so angry that his teeth were itching. Today, he originally wanted to squat at the entrance of the Jiang family’s house to wait for the youngest brother.

Who knew that he couldn’t even see a shadow of him.

Damn it, they ran so fast?

Jiang Fengshou and Jiang Yuanyang had been at odds since they were young, completely incompatible.

Even seeing each other made them feel disgusted.

Jiang Fengshou liked to compare himself to Jiang Yuanyang in everything. The youngest brother, that shameless Jiang Yuanyang, was a little taller than him, and he immediately felt uncomfortable and resentful.

Why?

Was Jiang Yuanyang secretly taking growth hormones?

They were both raised by the mountains and rivers of Dajiang Village, why are you so tall?

So, Jiang Fengshou learned from the three Jiang brothers to get up early and jog.

On the first day, his legs were shaking, and he kept complaining about the soreness after returning home.

Who would have thought that the next day, his father came back with a dark face, and without saying a word, he picked up a fire poker, shouting, “Disobedient son! Disobedient son!”

“Is this something a human can do?”

Jiang Fengshou was completely dumbfounded, and he didn’t even have time to put on his shoes. He ran away desperately.

“Ah, ah, ah, Dad, why don’t you reason with me? Who would greet you so warmly early in the morning?”

“Are you trying to scare your son to death?”

Jiang Weimin held the fire poker high, chasing after Jiang Fengshou, cursing loudly, “You stinky boy! You have the guts to run!

I’ll break your legs! You still dare to be stubborn at this time? I’ll beat you to death, you unfilial son!

Everyone outside is spreading rumors, saying they don’t know who you crawled out of bed from early in the morning, with dark circles under your eyes, looking both sour and satisfied!

It’s so ugly, you’ve lost all our family’s face. Are you trying to make your old man die of anger?”

Jiang Fengshou’s eyes were about to pop out. He dodged his father’s stick while shouting angrily, “Bullsh*t, I didn’t do it!”

“Who the hell is spreading rumors about me? I’ll go to his house and beat him up!!!”

When Li Hong heard the noise and came out to see, the father and son were running around like a cat chasing a mouse, and their shouts were louder than each other.

Li Hong didn’t know which one to appease first…

After this incident, Jiang Fengshou never wanted to learn from Jiang Yuanyang to get up early and jog again.

He even selfishly suspected that the three Jiang brothers were behind this.

They just weren’t happy with him, right?

A few days later, Jiang Fengshou found out who was spreading rumors about him, and he went to the cripple’s house with a weapon and beat him to the ground.

“Damn it, what kind of trash dares to step on me?”

Although he couldn’t beat the three Jiang brothers, he wasn’t someone that any cat or dog could bully!

The past is unbearable to recall! Jiang Fengshou covered his forehead, his mouth almost turned into a scoop.

He fiercely shoved a mouthful of rice, what’s wrong with his father and mother?

Why can’t they be quiet?

Still talking about the Jiang family?

Anyway, Jiang Fengshou didn’t think anyone was prettier than the educated youth Wenxiang.

Wenxiang not only had a beautiful appearance, but also a good personality. She spoke softly and gently, making people feel sorry for her.

Anyway, the Jiang family’s girl was no match for Wenxiang.

Thinking of Wenxiang, Jiang Fengshou’s mouth had a mind of its own and couldn’t help but turn up!

Forget it, forget it, he’ll go and block Jiang Yuanyang again tomorrow. He must avenge his old and new grudges.

Right, he also needs to find his group of little followers!

Let’s bring more people this time!
