Before knocking, Jiang Xia had already heard voices inside, which gave her confidence. Shortly after, footsteps sounded from within and the door opened, revealing a woman in her forties, skinny and with rough skin.
“Who are you?” she asked.
“It’s like this. My child followed me out for a long time and wants to drink some water. 1 wonder if your family can give my child a sip of water to drink.”Since Jiang Xia had taken the lead, Jiang Chuan naturally couldn’t be left behind. He took the lead and walked to the front to speak to the lady.
The woman, Jia Ju, glanced at Jiang Xia and saw that her lips were indeed dry. Considering that a child of her age might easily get thirsty, she lowered her guard, opened the door a little wider, and invited them in.
“Wait a moment, I’ll get you some water.”
“Auntie, there’s no need to go through so much trouble. Just scoop some water for me.” Jiang Xia said sweetly.
Jia Ju smiled and said to Jiang Xia, “This child really knows how to talk. But little ones shouldn’t drink cold water, it can upset your stomach. Just wait a bit, 1’11 be right back.”
Since Jia Ju was so enthusiastic, the father and daughter didn’t feel right refusing, so they waited in the yard.
After a while, Jia Ju came out with two bowls of water in her hands. Behind her was a boy who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.
The boy, Jia Guang, followed behind his mother without saying a word, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Chuan and Jiang Xia.
Although Jia Guang’s gaze was not very friendly, Jiang Xia couldn’t help thinking that this young boy had grown to resemble a certain celebrity from her own era.
Perhaps it was because Jiang Xia’s gaze was too passionate, Jia Ju noticed that something was off and took the initiative to introduce him to Jiang Xia and Jiang Chuan.” This is my youngest son, Jia Guang.”
Only then did Jiang Xia realize that something was wrong, she awkwardly retracted her gaze. However, Jia Ju was no longer surprised. Although her younger son may have a bad temper, there were quite a number of girls who liked him.
“What a handsome young man,” Jiang Chuan said, trying to cover his daughter’s awkwardness by striking up a conversation with Jia Ju.
Jiang Xia tried to cover up her embarrassment by drinking water.

Jia Guang’s gaze never left the father and daughter, making them feel slightly uncomfortable.
After finishing their water, Jiang Xia was ready to leave with Jiang Chuan. The county was so big, she didn’t believe that this was the only wealthy family around.
However, what Jiang Xia didn’t expect was that before she could pull Jiang Chuan’s clothes, Jia Guang walked up to them and stared in the basket.
“What exactly do you do? What’s in this basket?” As he spoke, Jia Guang kicked the basket with his foot.
The kick unsettled the rabbits in the basket, stirring them up. Now Jia Ju too sensed something off, and looked at them with suspicion.
Seeing this, Jiang Chuan decided not to hide anything anymore. He removed the wild vegetables and revealed the two rabbits inside the basket.
Looking at this, Jia Guang said disdainfully, “I knew you two weren’t just here for a drink.”
But Jia Ju didn’t see it that way.
Looking at Jiang Xia, with her bright eyes and sweet mouth, then at her father, not only looking honest but also giving off a farmer’s aura, how could they be bad people?
In Jia Ju’s view, she felt sorry for Jiang Chuan and his daughter. In this severe drought, they had nothing to eat, barely managed to catch some rabbit to bring to the city, and had to use the excuse of needing water to sell it.
Moreover, the father was dressed in worn-out clothes while the daughter was wearing good clothes. It was obvious he cared for his child. How could such a person be bad?
Jia Ju looked at the wild rabbits in the basket, noticing that they were indeed fat. If she bought them, she would have a good meal and wouldn’t be at a loss.
So Jia Ju pulled Jia Guang aside and said sternly, “Enough, don’t scare this young girl.” After saying this, she put on a smiley face and said to Jiang Chuan, “Kids don’t understand things, please forgive him. How much are you selling
these rabbits for? 1’11 take both..”
