Chapter 128: The Culprits

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Chuan was taken aback when he heard Xiao Wu’s words. He then looked at Jiang Xia, who was also shocked by what Xiao Wu had suggested. To have her redo elementary school?

...

The father and daughter were speechless, while Xiao Wu continued to talk about the benefits of going to school.

“Third Brother, after these two years of drought pass, we should save up some money to send Xiao Xia and Xiao Gu to school. I’m not exaggerating when I say that learning can be very useful.”

Jiang Xia noticed the expectant and eager look in Jiang Gu’s eyes as she watched Xiao Wu.

That’s right! She had already gone to university in the modern era, but Jiang Gu was still young, she had never read a book or attended school, let alone know what a school looked like. Even with Jiang Xia’s private tutoring, it couldn’t compare to what she’d learn in an actual classroom setting. If she never got to experience that kind of learning environment, it would be a regret for life.

Seeing Xiao Wu talking until his mouth went dry, Zhou Lan kindly poured him a cup of water and smiled, “Xiao Wu, what you’re saying makes sense. We’ll discuss it and see if we can find a way to send the kids to school.”

“Okay, sister-in-law, you guys discuss. If it’s a matter of money…” Xiao Wu hesitated, then gritted his teeth, “Third Brother, 1 have saved some money. It can be used for Xiao Xia’s schooling.”

Xiao Wu’s sincerity touched Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan. They shared a glance, filled with emotion. It was said that the people in this era were simple and honest. Other than some weirdos, there were still many good people around.

Jiang Chuan shook his head with a smile, “Xiao Wu, keep your money. Isn’t that what you saved for your future wife so you wouldn’t have to rely too much on your family? Why are you bringing it out now?”

Before Xiao Wu could say anything else, Jiang Chuan interrupted him, “Young brother, I understand your good intentions. If we really need it, 1 will ask you for help. But at this moment, even if Xiao Xia and the others wanted to go to school, there’s nowhere to go.”

Jiang Chuan was right. Right now, it would be a struggle for Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu to go to school even if they wanted to.

There used to be an elementary school in town, but since last year’s food shortage, every family in town and the countryside started to struggle. Especially last winter, when people starved to death, many families had to bring their children back home. This led to the closure of the town’s elementary school due to a lack of support.

As for those who had not been brought home, their families had sent their children to elementary school in other places because they had some connections. Only then could their children continue their studies.

Xiao Wu also thought about this situation and couldn’t help but sigh.

Seeing the gloomy atmosphere, Jiang Xia changed the topic and said, “Uncle Xiao Wu, did you come to our house for something today?”

Only then did Xiao Wu remember the reason he had rushed over to Jiang Chuan’s house.

“Third Brother, 1 got distracted by the other topics and forgot. I came over today because 1 have something to discuss. You asked me to keep an eye on Old Sun’s family for any movements, right? I’ve been observing them these past days. The two couple from Old Sun’s family seem to be working as usual, earning work points. They’ve just been visiting Old Jiang’s family more frequently.”

After Jiang Chuan and his family separated from Old Jiang’s family, the villagers usually referred to Jiang Chuan as “Third Brother,” while the old man Jiang and his wife were referred to as “Old Jiang’s family.”

“Them? What does this have to do with them?”

Jiang Chuan frowned deeply. Although he knew that Old Sun’s family had always been close to Boss Jiang, could it be that Old Jiang’s family was also involved in their encounter with the wild wolves?

“I’m not too sure about that, but I saw Jiang Gui, Sun Li, and his wife looking quite happy for a few days. The neighbors said that Jiang Gui had apparently made some small money from somewhere, and his family has been celebrating for the last two days.”

Jiang Xia gritted her teeth. Where did this money come from? If her previous guess was correct, then the money must have come from selling the meat and fur of the wolf cubs. Although the cubs were small, their fur was very soft. If they could sell it to wealthy families to sew inside their children’s shoes, it would be more than ideal.

She just didn’t expect that Old Jiang’s family was also involved in this. It was clearly the Old Sun’s family who did it, so why would she associate it with Old Jiang’s family?

If Old Sun’s couple had done it themselves, could they have thought about Jiang Gui? And what about the tattered clothes Uncle Xiao Wu mentioned? Where did those come from? They took them from Old Jiang’s house, didn’t they?
