Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Fourth brother and the other scholars said that the moon is beautiful and that they should walk with it. If they want to walk back, don’t bother, mom. Here are two pounds of meat and some snacks.” Jiang Er put the things in the kitchen and did not hear Yang Fen patting her thigh, feeling sorry for Jiang Si. Jiang Er had met the Cheng family’s daughter in town today, and he had been completely captivated by her. He did not have the time to think about anything else.

“Eh? Where’s my wild boar meat?” Jiang Xi squatted on the ground and looked at the little gray rabbit. She said she wanted to eat rabbit meat and wild boar meat. Something did not seem right, but what should belong to Jiang Xi would never run away.

Everyone said that one would run into ghosts if they walked too much at night, but this was the first time they had run into a wild boar at night!

…

“Jiang Si and his classmates are all pampered at home. How could they travel such a long distance? Jiang Qi, go and fetch them with your brother, Jiang Da. Take some self-defense items with you. It’s dark now. Don’t run into any danger.” As soon as Yang Fen said this, Jiang Er was unhappy. “Mom, what’s there to pick up when Jiang Si is walking together with other men? They’re not a group of little girls.”

“How can this be the same? All of you are used to doing rough work and have rough skin and thick flesh, but Jiang Si and the rest are different. I’m afraid they haven’t even carried a bowl at home.” Yang Fen did not consider much, so she just said what she thought, but she did not know that this made Jiang Er even more dissatisfied.

Jiang Da put down the heavy bundle of rice on his shoulder. He did not even have time to wipe the sweat off his body before he agreed to Yang Fen’s request. Jiang Da was a stubborn man. He felt that his wife was a burden to the family. His wife took medicine every day, which made him feel extremely guilty at home. Now, he was working outside during the day and had to work at home at night.

Ever since Yang Kun got married, there was no work for the Jiang family. Only Jiang Da was a coolie in the town, and there were red marks on his shoulders. Jiang Er had originally planned to work together with Jiang Da, but after coming back from the last blind date, he seemed to feel that being a coolie was not good enough for the daughter of the Cheng family, so he simply did not go. Recently, he had been looking for some decent work to do.

Jiang Shan’s legs were strong, and he often went to the mountains to hunt for games to sell in town. Sometimes, he earned more than Jiang da in a month, and he could also help with some work at home. As for Jiang Xi… She used to be a needlework worker and cook at home, but now she was sitting at home and doing nothing but an expert in blessing.

“I’ll go with big brother.” Jiang Xi quietly grabbed two handfuls of steaming peanuts and put them in her pocket, still thinking about where her wild boar was. She was well aware of her own abilities, but this blessing was random at any time. She did not know where she would encounter it or trigger it, but most of them would not last more than three months. If she cried a few more times, most of them would happen on the same day or her blessing would double. For example, the pig raised by the Zhao family was pregnant!

Jiang Xi had shouted ‘wild boar meat’ a few times today. The wild boar would definitely appear today. She would never let someone take advantage of her.

“You’re just a girl. You haven’t recovered yet. Why are you so stubborn? ” Yang Fen did not quite agree.

mom, it’ll be fine. I’ll bring Jiang Xi along. Just put on a few more clothes so that we don’t get exposed to the wind. Besides, it’s good to go out and relax. Jiang Da’s heart ached for Jiang Xi, so he immediately cut off Yang Fen’s words.

Jiang Guoyou’s health was not good, and men were always the ones in charge of the village. Jiang Da was the eldest son in the family, so Yang Fen pursed her lips and subconsciously listened to Jiang Da’s words. However, she still reminded Jiang Xi, “Be careful when you see your fourth brother and his classmates. Don’t embarrass your fourth brother.” She was deeply afraid that Jiang Xi would suddenly fall ill again.

Jiang Da’s wife, Zheng Rong, saw that the sky had turned dark and was putting rice into a bamboo basket. Hearing Yang Fen’s words, she hurriedly said, “Mom, Jiang Xi is still young. Don’t always discipline her. It’s getting late. The buns in the kitchen should be steamed. Jiang Si and the other students don’t eat mixed-grain biscuits.

Zheng Rong’s words made Yang Fen stop talking. As long as Jiang Si was mentioned, Yang Fen would focus all her attention on him. Zheng Rong knew that the Jiang family’s food and clothing, Jiang Si’s school expenses, and the medicinal soup she had drunk had all been paid for by Jiang Xi. Zheng Rong felt guilty about Jiang Xi. There were many children in the Jiang family, and the Jiang parents were always biased. Even if they did not realize it, they always treated their children differently subconsciously.
