Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
"After we go back, we'll take Xiao Xia with the third daughter and separate from the rest of the Jiang family. Then we'll see if the eldest daughter is doing well. If she isn't doing well, we can bring her back; it's not like she can't get a divorce. We'll see if she wants to marry again when the time comes. If not, we'll take care of her for the rest of her life. We owe it to her. " Jiang Chuan said.
It was rare for Jiang Chuan to say so much, but he seemed to have arranged the road ahead.
In Jiang Xia's memory, her eldest sister was a gentle and kind girl. She had a good temper and liked to smile. Although everyone in the village had the same hairstyle, she was the most beautiful and eye-catching one.
Before her eldest sister got married, she could be said to be the pillar of the family. Everyone in the family would smile at the sight of her, no matter how complex their situation was.
She knelt before her parents the night before her wedding and cried silently. It was the first time Jiang Xia from this world had witnessed her eldest sister crying. Both Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan from this world also cried when her eldest sister got married.
Until the very end, the sensible daughter did not mutter a single word about not wanting to get married. She knew there was no way back, and she did not want her parents to feel any worse than what they were already feeling.
Jiang Xia's heart ached at the thought of this.
"Yes, bring the eldest daughter back. If they don't let her go, I'll let them have a taste of my fist." Zhou Lan said as she waved her fist.
Jiang Xia was amused by her mother's funny look, and her previous low mood was swept away. Since there was no way she could change what had happened before, she would try her best to salvage it.
Because it was getting late and it would be dangerous to walk at night, Jiang Chuan suggested that they stay on the mountain for the night and make their way down the mountain the following day.
However, just as they finished setting up their tents, Zhou Lan's sharp ears caught the sound of people shouting.
"Someone's coming." Zhou Lan said.
The father and daughter didn't dare to ask any more questions. They quickly packed up the tent and wiped away any traces that didn't belong in this era. Jiang Chuan then muttered to himself, and the black vehicle disappeared.
The sky had yet to turn completely dark, but some villagers had already lit their torches. Most wild beasts feared fire, so burning it in advance would give them a greater sense of security.
The three of them saw a little light not far away. They gave each other a quick look, started lying on the ground, and pretended to be unconscious. After all, they were in this state when they first woke up in these bodies.
"Chief! There seems to be someone in front!" A loud voice startled Jiang Xia.
Although she learned quickly, it did not mean that she was able to get into character quickly. Jiang Xia became more and more nervous as she heard the footsteps gradually becoming more evident.
"Hey, chief! We found them! We found Jiang Chuan and the others!" The young man who found Jiang Chuan's family first shouted. He sounded excited not only because he had found them but also because they could finally go home.
The later it got, the more dangerous it was in the mountains. The village chief had already sent back a group of women who had followed them to pick fruits and other food, leaving only strong young men.
However, no matter how strong they were, they were still afraid. Many of them were also tired after the long search, and some even assumed that Jiang Chuan and his family had to be dead by now.
The village chief knew deep down he just wanted to try his luck again, so he said to the villagers, "It is not easy for anyone due to the drought now. It's hard to say there won't be other people going up the mountain to look for food again. We should all look out for each other."
While some villagers agreed, others only stayed to show respect to the village chief. Of course, the village chief already said this would be the last lap, but who would have guessed they found Jiang Chuan and his family.
"Jiang Chuan! Jiang Chuan, wake up!" The young man who found them slapped Jiang Chuan's face lightly. Seeing his eyes move, the young man quickly shouted, "He's awake. He's still alive."
As the young man shouted, Jiang Chuan slowly opened his eyes. With his sallow face and thin body, there was no need for him to act as if he had just been unconscious.
As someone called out to Jiang Chuan, others rushed to help Zhou Lan and Jiang Xia. Only when they fed the mother and daughter some water did they pretend to be awake.
"Jiang Chuan, how do you feel? Can you still walk?" The village chief, Dan Bin, who had rushed over, squatted down and asked the dispirited Jiang Chuan, handing him some water as he spoke.
Jiang Chuan took two sips of water and pretended to be more energetic. He smiled and said, "Yes, thank you, chief."
After saying that, he looked at Zhou Lan and Jiang Xia. Seeing that the two of them had gotten up, he smiled reassuringly.
If it wasn't for the time, place, and other restrictions, Jiang Xia would have liked to praise her father for his acting skills.
