Chapter 241: Coincidence

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Xing’s parents passed away early. After getting married, he packed his belongings and moved to the neighboring village, living together with his wife and in-laws.

Their relationship had always been strong. After getting married, they had a daughter, and now, his wife was pregnant again. While Chen Xing verbally expressed indifference about the baby’s gender, deep down, he hoped for a son to care for him in his old age.

Chen Xing initially joined the production team thanks to the dowry from his wife’s family. However, it was through his own diligence and hard work, recognized by leadership, that he rose to the position of team leader.

After Jiang Chuan’s family sent Chen Xing off, everyone was silent except for Jiang Gu.

When they did not know Jiang Qing’s whereabouts, they looked forward to reuniting as soon as possible every day.

Now that they knew, their worries multiplied; bringing her back wasn’t just a matter of speaking it. They had to consider the complexities of relocation, housing, and various other concerns.

What they urgently needed was someone to help initiate the process. This was currently Jiang Chuan’s most pressing concern.

During dinner, Chen Xing had clearly shown his reluctance to help. So, who else could Jiang Chuan turn to? The village chief? If the chief’s words had weight, then Jiang Qing wouldn’t have been sent away in the first place. Given the circumstances, Jiang Chuan felt he could only rely on himself.

Luck seemed to be on the Jiang family’s side. Just when Jiang Chuan was spending sleepless nights riddled with worries, he unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance in the village the next day.

Now that the autumn harvest was over, there was less farm work and more people leisurely wandering in the village. Jiang Chuan felt that it was not a good idea to worry at home. Jiang Chuan thought it best to take a stroll with his family by the riverside, hoping the waterside activities would lighten the mood.

Zhou Lan decided to stay home to sew warm clothes for the family before winter’s onset. Thus, Jiang Chuan left with the two Jiang sisters.

Jiang Gu held Jiang Xia’s hand with one hand and Jiang Chuan’s with the other as they skipped towards the river. When they walked past a small dirt road, Jiang Xia suddenly stopped and looked at the two people walking towards them from afar.

“Dad, do those two people look familiar?”

Preoccupied with watching over Jiang Gu’s steps and fearing she might trip on the stones, Jiang Chuan didn’t look up and casually replied, “Given the number of people wandering around the village these days, you probably recognize them.”

“No, they aren’t from our village. I think it’s Zhou Juan and her father!”

Zhou Juan was a young girl who befriended Jiang Xia in the town. Her father worked in the sugar factory in the county town, and Jiang Chuan’s family had to rely on her help when they went to the county town for the first time.

Taking a closer look, Jiang Chuan realized it was indeed Zhou Juan and her father.

As they approached, Jiang Xia waved at them, “Zhou Juan!”

Carrying a paper bag, a listless Zhou Juan followed her father, kicking stones to alleviate her boredom. Growing up in the city, she found these stony paths particularly annoying because the flying dust would dirty her shoes. Hence, whenever she visited the village, she wore old shoes.

Engrossed in kicking stones and wondering how much longer it would take to reach their destination, Zhou Juan heard someone call her name. Looking up, she was surprised to see Jiang Xia!

It had been a long time since they met, especially after Jiang Xia’s family’s trip to the city. To be honest, Zhou Juan had missed her quite a bit.

Zhou Juan admired Jiang Xia’s way of talking and felt that her words were very thoughtful.

Zhou Juan never thought of Jiang Xia as a mere country girl; in fact, she believed that Jiang Xia possessed many qualities absent in city folks. This made Zhou Juan eager to be friends with her.

Moreover, after their last visit, her father had always praised both Jiang Xia and her father, mentioning they should keep in touch more often. Yet, they hadn’t visited since then. It was a delightful surprise to encounter Jiang Xia in the countryside today.

Zhou Juan jumped up and down happily. She raised her empty hand and waved at Jiang Xia.

Recognizing Zhou Juan, Jiang Xia ran towards her, and Zhou Juan did the same.

“How did you end up in the village? And why are you carrying so much?” asked Jiang Xia.

“My uncle lives in the village. My dad got a raise recently and bought some milk in the county town. We brought the milk especially for him!” Zhou Juan explained.

As she spoke, she took out a milk candy from the pocket of her pleated skirt and offered it to Jiang Xia. Due to the day’s warm weather, the candy, which had been in her pocket for a while, was somewhat soft.

“The milk comes in a whole box, so I can’t open it, otherwise I’d let you try. But this candy is made of milk, and it tastes even better. Try it!” she urged..
