It took Jiang Xia a while before she came back to her senses. She looked at the red strawberries and swallowed her saliva.
The strawberries look really good. They can’t just look good but not taste good, right?
Jiang Xia squatted down and picked a strawberry. Before putting it into her mouth, she made sure to wash it with water.
In an instant, the sweet taste spread in her mouth. It was so delicious that Jiang Xia wanted to swallow her own tongue.
The watermelons on the other side were also so huge that it left Jiang Xia dumbfounded.
A moment later, Jiang Xia came back to her senses, and a surge of ecstasy surged in her heart.
Based on what she had seen just now, it would not be a problem to feed not only their family but even the entire village.
…..
Even though that was what she was thinking, Jiang Xia did think it was a good idea to let others know about this space.
Not to mention that her space did not work the same how a normal world would work. Even in the modern world, if anyone had such a space, they would be targeted. It was hard to predict what would happen in this world especially when everyone was in a state of famine.
After confirming the situation in the space, Jiang Xia left it and gave her father a big smile.
“How is it?” Jiang Chuan asked her daughter.
Jiang Xia chuckled and took out a few strawberries, “Dad, try it.”
The sky was a little dark, so he couldn’t sec the strawberry in Jiang Xia’s hand clearly. However, as soon as Jiang Chuan brought it close to his nose, he smelled a sweet fragrance.
When he put it into his mouth, the sweet taste spread, and his eyes lit up.
“It’s delicious. It seems to be even better than what we eat in modern times.”
“Dad, let me tell you. The plants in my interspace ripen very quickly. I just entered the interspace and the seeds sprouted. After I watered them, they started to grow in front of me. I have a lot of watermelons and strawberries in my interspace now!” Jiang Xia said happily.
“Docs that mean we won’t have to worry about food in the future?”
“Yes!” Jiang Xia nodded, “I feel that with the speed at which the plants grow and bear fruit, it won’t be a problem to feed an entire village.”
Jiang Chuan frowned at Jiang Xia’s words.
“Xiao Xia, 1 know you don’t want anyone to starve to death, but I have to tell you that the situation with your space cannot be made public. It’s not that I don’t want to help others, but I am your father. No matter what decision 1 make, I have to consider your safety first.”
Jiang Xia understood what Jiang Chuan meant and nodded repeatedly, feeling touched. She had been grateful that the heavens allowed her family to be here with her and not let her be alone.
“When the situation with our family stabilizes, we’ll think of a way together to sec if we can help the villagers tide over this crisis.” Jiang Chuan continued.
They could tell that most of the villagers here in Tong Shan village were very kind. Especially after what had happened when their family separated, they were really grateful to receive all the help. Therefore, Jiang Chuan wanted to help the villagers as much as possible but with the condition that her daughter remained safe.
The night breeze blew, and the air was very hot. The cicadas chirped in the quiet night. Jiang Xia looked at the stars in the sky. This was a rare scene in the noisy city. The era they lived in was really different.
Jiang Xia and his father chatted for a long time, discussing topics from from modern times to the theft of the Jiang family. They only went back to their rooms to sleep when they could no longer keep their eyes open.
That night, Jiang Xia had a fulfilling dream. She dreamed that she had offered starving villagers food from her interspace. However, instead of getting greedy and targeting her, they were all contented and even went on to help others in need too.
The people in the dream were kind and beautiful, easily satisfied, and knew how to share.
They survived the famine together until the day the new policy was announced. People took hoes to the back of the mountain to open up wasteland, and everyone had smiles on their faces…
“No! Sis! Run!” Suddenly, Jiang Gu’s cries woke Zhou Lan up.
Zhou Lan rubbed her eyes and looked at the sky outside. The sky had just turned bright, and a slightly cool breeze blew against her face, cooling Zhou Lan down.
On the other side, Jiang Gu was still crying non-stop as she muttered, “Let go of Jiang Xia! Don’t hit my sister! Bad guys! You’re not my grandparents!”
Zhou Lan’s expression turned cold as she instantly recalled what happened last night. It was late at night and she didn’t have the time to deal with the two elders.
She could only spend the time worrying about her daughter’s injuries.. Today, she must seek justice for her two daughters!
