Chapter 248: Harmonious Relationship
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
From Zhang Ling’s words, it seemed that Jiang Qing’s life after marrying into the Zhang family was much better than when she was in the old Jiang family. Zhou Lan’s guilt towards her eldest daughter was slightly alleviated.
Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan had originally discussed that if their relationship was not good and the Zhang family was unwilling to leave the mountain, they might as well get a divorce and bring Jiang Qing home.
Since the two of them were planning to have a child, their relationship was naturally good. It would be unlikely to separate them. Therefore, Jiang Chuan wanted to reunite the whole family and planned to bring the entire Zhang family down from the mountain.
Originally, Jiang Chuan was still hesitating whether he should personally visit the Zhang family. However, with Zhang Ling’s visit today, he firmly decided that he must go.
He took out the map of Zhang Ling’s home and studied it carefully. This map was given to him by Chen Xing in the morning. Chen Xing’s attitude suddenly became proactive, which puzzled Jiang Chuan. However, this wasn’t the focus, so he didn’t dwell on it.
While studying it, Jiang Chuan suddenly spread the map on the table, pointing to the Zhang house, and said,” Honey, look at this house. There’s something wrong with it!”
Jiang Xia, who was playing with Jiang Gu on the side, immediately set down Jiang Gu and leaned in, asking, “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Chuan, fearing they wouldn’t understand, gestured the routes on the mountain. “Look at the location of this house, it’s strategically placed, perfect for military defense. 1 think the Jiang family isn’t just ordinary hunters!”
Zhou Lan exclaimed, “If they were soldiers, they wouldn’t hide in the mountains. Could they all be enemy spies? Our daughter would be in danger!”
Jiang Chuan pinched his wife’s cheek, “It shouldn’t be that bad. But when something is abnormal, there’s always a reason. I’ll have to see for myself.”
Jiang Xia and Zhou Lan had different opinions. Jiang Xia felt that Zhang Ling seemed to deliberately avoid mentioning her father when talking about the Zhang family, as if hiding something. Jiang Chuan should be fully prepared to ensure his safety if he decides to visit!
If they were to go, they should do so openly, not sneak in like they did the last time.
Without delay, Jiang Chuan packed up the map and headed to the village chief’s house to get a permit.
As soon as Jiang Chuan arrived at the village chief’s house, he was informed about a change in national policy after the recent census. Now, to get a permit, the official seal of the production team was required, and he couldn’t issue it.
Jiang Chuan had no choice but to head to Zhou Fang’s house, who was the chief captain of the production team and held the official seal.
The closer they were to the production team, the better the villagers ‘houses were. Although they were still mud houses, they were better than the houses on the periphery in terms of ventilation and lighting.
As Jiang Chuan was about to reach the production team, he suddenly saw a large group of people running towards the eastern side of the village. Leading them was Chen Xing.
Chen Xing looked very anxious. He ran so fast that he didn’t even notice Jiang Chuan as he passed by, and the group kicked up a cloud of dust.
Jiang Chuan stopped a man trailing behind, gasping for breath, and asked, “What’s going on? Why the rush?”
The man caught his breath before replying,” 1 heard that the woman living alone in the village fainted from hunger!” She had two big dogs that ran next door and barked non-stop, scaring her fat son to tears. The little fatty’s parents came to the door to demand an explanation. Only then did they realize that the woman had fainted. There was no food at home. Wasn’t it because she had fainted from hunger?”
If there was an incident in the village, the village chief would naturally handle it. Now, they specially called the production team over to let the production team see the current situation of the villagers. Food was scarce, and the vegetables in the vegetable fields could not grow. Most of the wheat was empty shells. If there was no relief food, many people in the village would not be able to survive this winter. This solitary ‘ice beauty’ was just one of them.
After hearing this, Jiang Chuan quickly let the man go and continued towards Zhou Fang’s house.
As he reached the entrance of Zhou Fang’s house, he saw Zhou Fang rushing out, even his outerwear wasn’t properly worn, and his collar was crooked.
Seeing Jiang Chuan, Zhou Fang paused, asking expressionlessly, “What brings you here?”
