Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 204: Chapter 204: You’re Really Amazing

However, Chiang Songhai had many things to instruct her about, and she also had things to instruct them.

”Grandpa and Grandma, we’re going up the mountain today, and we might not be back until sunset. You should also be careful at home. It’s best to lock both the courtyard gate and the hall door. Don’t go out today.”

She really didn’t trust the people from the Old Chiang Family. Fortunately, Chiang Baohe couldn’t walk and was in the town hospital. Chiang Songtao had to look after him, and Chiang Baoguo still had a weakness in her hands, so she guessed they wouldn’t come to cause trouble.

It was just to be prepared for anything.

Chiang Songhai felt uneasy listening to her be so defensive against the Old Chiang Family’s people, but he couldn’t think of any reason to argue, so he could only sigh.

”Grandpa, you’ve already been injured, and Grandma got pushed and took a fall. What expectations can you still have for them?”

What?

Upon hearing this, Ge De Jun’s face darkened, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to hold back his words. It was clear that bringing up this matter was bringing Chiang Songhai’s mood down. He would ask Chiang Xiao about it later.

Chiang Songhai had nothing to say when interrogated by Chiang Xiao and could only respond, ”I understand, Little. Grandpa will listen to you. We will rest well in the house today and won’t even open the door if Uncle and the rest come knocking, is that okay?”

After hearing this, Chiang Xiao’s expression finally softened. She walked over and hugged his arm, giving it a shake, ”That’s right, Grandpa. You wouldn’t want me to worry about you while on the mountain, would you? I’ve boiled a pot of water for you to drink more of.”

She had also boiled a pot of Ganoderma water, enough for them to drink for the whole day.

When she woke up today, she found their spirits much improved from yesterday. It was clear the Ganoderma water was having a great effect.

Chiang Xiao believed that if they drank the Ganoderma water every day, their injuries would heal faster, and their health would also improve.

Chiang Songhai felt sweet as if he had sipped sugar water when she coddled him like this, listening to her two sentences full of concern. The sour feelings were washed away in an instant.

”Okay, I’ll listen to everything Little says,” he said with a smile, repeating himself.

After Chiang Xiao finished instructing them, she slung her small basket over her back and set off toward Bai Gu Mountain with Ge De Jun and Xu Linjiang.

She had risen extremely early today, and even now as they set off, it was not yet eight o’clock.

However, clusters of villagers were already heading to the fields. Seeing Chiang Xiao leading people towards Bai Gu Mountain didn’t raise any suspicions since Chiang Xiao often used to go to Nameless Creek alone.

The most they wondered about was the identity of the two men following her, but they were too far away to see clearly. And being no gossips like Niu Guiying and Ho Laidi, they glanced once and forgot, not making anything of it.

Once Chiang Xiao and her companions walked a bit further, there were no more people around, and everything was quiet. The chirping of birds was crisp, the air was fresh, and the scent of grass and wildflowers made one’s mood bright.

Thinking about the potential gains from this trip up the mountain, Chiang Xiao’s steps were light. Her ease and joy naturally affected Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang, lessening the unease in their hearts.

They couldn’t be outdone by a young girl, could they?

On the way, Ge Dejun asked about what Chiang Xiao had said earlier, ”Little, what did you mean when you said your grandma was pushed to the ground?”

Had someone bullied his eldest sister after they left yesterday?

Chiang Xiao scoffed and narrated yesterday’s events, including how she had knocked Ho Laidi to the ground with a kick and splashed her with a bucket of foot-washing water, Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang were utterly stunned.

”Little, you really are something else!” Xu Linjiang couldn’t help but praise.

Chiang Xiao laughed, ”Uncle, don’t you think I’m disrespectful and unfilial?”
