Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 349: Chapter 349 No Way to Deal With Them

If she skipped a grade and went to junior high three, she would have spent at most one year in Peace Town before heading to the provincial city for high school. If possible, she would like to skip a grade in high school as well and take the college entrance exam a year early.

Of course, getting into a high school in the provincial city was not easy, and it would require a school willing to accept her, so she would at least need connections. She would figure that out when the time came, and if that didn’t work out, she could go to the high school in the county city, which was also very good.

Therefore, Peace Town was just a transition.

The things she insisted on, Ge Dejun could not persuade her otherwise. In the end, he could only look for a compromise and said, ”Then, when you start junior high, your great-uncle will give you another gift!”

Anyway, it was right to give gifts.

Chiang Xiao smiled and agreed.

Ge Dejun added, ”Today we saw such a big flock of partridges. Next time, we should look for their nests, probably by the creek. If we’re lucky, we might find a lot of partridge eggs!”

Chiang Xiao’s eyes lit up; this was good.

”But, Little, you have to go to school, and since your grandfather doesn’t have much to do now, he can go up the mountain with your uncle. If you don’t go to school, how can your grades be good?”

”Okay, grandpa, I’ll take one more day off tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow I’ll go to school. Tomorrow I’m going to ask the carpenter to make a bed,” Chiang Xiao replied.

”We’re not in a hurry, you can stay over the weekend, and you still have to go to school in the village. We’ll clean up and set things up here slowly,” Ge Liutao also said.

They discussed over dinner, interspersed with laughter and conversation.

But since they did not have a bed yet, they had to go back at night. It was not unusual for people in Siyang Village to walk to the town at night with flashlights, and they didn’t make much of it.

However, when they arrived in the village, it was late at night, and the village was dark and quiet. Occasionally, they could hear a dog barking.

In the dead of night, the sound of unlocking and pushing the door still made noise.

Chiang Baohe, who had been tormented by the pain of his wound, heard the door opening and immediately guessed that it was Chiang Songhai and the rest who had disappeared for the whole day returning. He was instantly furious, cursing out loud.

”Chiang Xiao you dead bitch! You still have the nerve to come back? Get your ass over here, and I’ll show you! Wasn’t it your idea to build that wall? You little slut, just like your whore mother. Why didn’t you die sooner!”

The surroundings were silent, and his curses were sharply clear.

Chiang Songhai had not expected Chiang Baohe to still be awake so late, and upon hearing the curses, his face turned ugly, and he trembled with rage.

”Grandpa, let him curse,” Chiang Xiao said calmly. ”What can he do now besides bark like a mad dog? Let’s go inside; it’s late. We should wash up quickly and go to bed.”

Chiang Songhai sighed heavily, closed the door, and fixed the door bolt.

Sure enough, now that the wall had been heightened, their cursing was mostly blocked once the door was shut, and it was no longer clear.

Chiang Xiao asked them to sit and rest for a while, then she started the stove, boiled a small pot of Ganoderma water, and also heated a big pot of water. After the three of them drank the Ganoderma water, they took turns washing up and went back to sleep in their rooms.

The next morning, Chiang Baohe, with bloodshot eyes, wanted to find trouble with Chiang Xiao, but his injuries were too severe now, and that leg could not bear any weight at all. Since he couldn’t hop out on one foot, he could only futilely curse in his own room.

He also urged Ho Laidi to drag Chiang Xiao over, but no matter what he said, Ho Laidi simply did not have the courage to confront Chiang Xiao.

She was truly scared out of her wits that day.

Chiang Songtao felt that making more of a fuss would only make things look worse, so he sulked all day, leaving early and returning late, spending most of his time in the fields.
