“Surprised?” Jiang Chuan asked.

“That’s right! After that, there were many rumors that your family was exploited and abused by them. I think it was spread by Old Jiang’s neighbors. I think they were afraid that your life in the Jiang family would be more difficult if they gossiped, so they didn’t spread it. Now that you’re gone, there’s no need to hide so much!”

Xiao Wu’s words surprised Jiang Xia. However, after thinking about it, after their family moved out, there were very few people who gossiped about their family. Instead, more villagers were privately saying how vicious the Jiang family was.

Some details that she had not noticed before flashed through Jiang Xia’s mind. Jiang Xia could not help but be happy that there were still many people in the village who were kind to her family. It seemed that her idea of helping the village was not wrong.

The sky was getting dark, and the food on the table was almost gone.

After sending off Xiao Wu and Xiao Li, Jiang Chuan, and Jiang Xia sat beside the big basin to wash the dishes while Zhou Lan taught Jiang Gu boxing in the courtyard.

The injury on Jiang Gu’s arm had long healed under the feeding of Jiang Xia’s spatial water. However, in order not to let the villagers notice anything unusual, she still tied the cloth up for two more days.

Jiang Xia raised her head and looked at the mother and daughter who were sweating profusely from practicing.

“Father, are you just going to watch and not do anything?” Jiang Xia was still thinking about the plan to train Xiao Gu into a young lady, so he urged her father to go against her mother.

“What can I do? It is up to your mother.” Jiang Chuan said.

Jiang Xia had a look of disdain on her face. “Father, why do you look so proud when you can’t control it? If you don’t do anything about it, you’ll regret it if she really turns Xiao Gu into a woman who speaks with her fists!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Xia saw her father glance at her and sneer. “If you want to be dragged by your mother to run five kilometers, go by yourself. Don’t bring me along.”

After saying that, her father took a bowl of water and walked toward Zhou Lan without looking back.

Jiang Xia looked through the window and could vaguely hear her father asking, “Docs my wife want to drink water?”

Since Xiao Wu had said that he would send them off the next morning, they had left quietly with their luggage.

They knew that if they let Xiao Wu send them off, there would be lots of nagging. Although the young man had good intentions, they did not want to dawdle until noon.

They left early and the sun only rise after they walked for about an hour or two. The trees in the mountain were lush, and the branches and leaves would block the sun.

When they left, the villagers were still sleeping. The entire village was quiet, so they didn’t have to take a detour because they wouldn’t attract anyone’s attention.

They left the village smoothly. When they reached a small hill, Jiang Xia turned around to take a look.

Houses were arranged in order, and small roads intersected with each other. The fog rising in the morning enveloped the village like a painting.

At this time, there were not as many facilities as in modern times. Although it was inconvenient to travel, it was because of this that allowed for such fresh air.

“Xiao Xia, what are you looking at?” Jiang Chuan turned around and asked.

“It’s nothing.” Jiang Xia replied and followed her family.

They woke up early today and without waking Jiang Gu up, Zhou Lan carried her and set off.

Ever since she had her power, her mother had been fighting to do all kinds of heavy work. Even though she knew that this kind of work was nothing to her mother, her father felt that his wife was tired and had to fight over it repeatedly.

The sun gradually rose, and smoke slowly rose from the village that they passed by when they entered the mountain. Jiang Xia looked at the village and then turned to look at the approaching mountain. She sighed, “We’re finally going to enter the mountain.”

Xiao Wu and Xiao Li arrived at the Jiang family’s house early in the morning, but they did not see Jiang Chuan’s family. All they saw was a locked wooden door..
