The area where they foraged for wild vegetables, thanks to the watering from Jiang Xia’s special space, could rapidly regenerate even after being harvested.
The villagers, wanting to continuously have wild vegetables to eat, had not overharvested them. Therefore, the wild vegetables were growing wonderfully.
The people gathered at the entrance of Jiang Chuan’s house were all in a hurry to go back and get their wild vegetables. Almost everyone had left, leaving only the village chief alone. Even the village chief’s wife rushed ho, wanting to exchange the wild vegetables she had saved for so food.
Don’t underestimate the importance of these two pounds of grain. During tis when no one is sure they can fill their stomachs, two pounds of grain could possibly be the lifesaver for a family.
“Can Xiao Li and Xiao Wu handle the calculations?” Jiang Chuan broke the silence.
The village chief regained his seriousness and waved his hand, “Xiao Wu is in charge of these things in the village, and Xiao Li is very attentive. They won’t make a mistake.”
Jiang Chuan just nodded, not saying anything more.
“Grandpa Chief, do people from other villages know that we have wild vegetables to forage?” Jiang Xia asked in an innocent manner.
“No, they don’t. Why, Xiao Xia?” The Chief looked at Jiang Xia, his eyes filled with confusion.
Jiang Xia didn’t say anything more, just giving Jiang Chuan a aningful look.
“What will others think if they find out that people are coming to our village to buy wild vegetables, especially with such a big fuss? ” Jiang Chuan stopped beating around the bush and laid it straight to the village chief.
The Chief was stunned at first but then quickly began to think deeply. Indeed, the area where they foraged for wild vegetables was small. If others found out they were trading these wild vegetables for grain, who knows if soone would get greedy and try to steal from them?
By then, not only would they be unable to trade wild vegetables for grain, but they might even have their tree bark gnawed away.
“I see, I understand now.” With the matter laid bare, the village chief didn’t ask why they returned from the county town so quickly. He rushed ho hastily.
The Jiang family, having not been ho for several days, felt a sense of nostalgia for this place.
After bidding the village chief farewell, they quickly tidied up their ho and fell asleep after a hasty wash. The day’s journey had been exhausting and they drifted to sleep as soon as their heads hit the pillows. Even Jiang Xia was too tired to enter her interspace.
The next morning, the noise from outside woke up the Jiang family.
Jiang Chuan was the first to get up and open the door. Soon, Zhou Lan, Jiang Xia, and Jiang Gu rubbed their eyes and ca to see what was happening.
“He’s such a good man.”
“Have you changed your opinions about the Jiang family now?”
“When did I have opinions?”
“No opinions? Weren’t you the one saying that the Jiang family was enjoying luxuries in the county town just a few days ago?”
“Exactly! You talk too much! Even if the Jiang family did enjoy luxuries in the county town, what’s it to you?”
“You!”
Jiang Chuan opened the door.
Instantly, the noise stopped and everyone looked at Jiang Chuan’s family.
“Everyone, what’s going on?” Jiang Chuan looked at the villagers who had gathered at his doorstep early in the morning, sowhat confused.
“We ca to thank you. Your family are such good people. You went to the city to sell vegetables, earned money, and still didn’t forget about us.”
“Yeah, truly good people.”
“Did you forget? The Jiang family risked their lives to find wild vegetables in the mountains, and when they found them, they didn’t forget to take us along.”
“That’s right, otherwise, why would we say the Jiang family is so kind-hearted?”
Amidst the villagers’ praises, a suspicious blush appeared on Jiang Chuan’s face, “You’re giving too much credit. It was rely a small effort.”
Jiang Chuan looked so honest and simple, no one would suspect that this was not the Jiang Chuan they used to know.
Seeing her father’s reaction, Jiang Xia couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle. As she turned her head, she caught a glimpse of Zhou Lan and Jiang Gu, who were already laughing so hard that their faces looked like blooming flowers.
Looking at the ti, it was only six or seven in the morning, the usual ti for the villagers to co back with foraged wild vegetables. Today, however, it seed as if they had co over purposefully, suggesting that the words Jiang Xia and Jiang Chuan had spoken to the village chief last night had taken effect..
