Chapter 179: Ungrateful Actions
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I must say, what does the Jiang family’s house have to do with you?” Li Xia, the blind old woman from outside, couldn’t bear it anymore.
From their conversation, she realized Old Madam Jiang and the brazen wife of Jiang’s eldest son were plotting to take over the house.
When Jiang Gui’s wife saw the blind old woman, she pointed at her and retorted, “Why does it concern you, blind woman? The Jiangs have a tiny house of their own, so we, from the larger branch of the Jiangs, should move in. Isn’t that alright? After all, we share the same surname, Jiang.”
“What insolence! When the Jiang family were up in the mountains gathering wild vegetables, you audaciously separate their home and didn’t spare them even a grain of rice. Now you pretend to be part of the same family?”
Li Xia was never friendly with Jiang Gui’s wife. She had a knack for standing up to her.
Li Xia’s statement made Jiang Xia and her mother want to celebrate, for someone finally stated the obvious.
This sent Jiang Gui’s wife into a fury. She stomped over to Li Xia, hands on her waist, yelling, “Why are you meddling? This is a family matter, why are you, an outsider, butting in? Do you think you are the only one allowed to speak?”
Jiang Xia recalled Li Xia from a memory of her older sister helping Li Xia’s son.
However, this was just a memory from her former self. Since her arrival, she only witnessed a few arguments between Li Xia and Jiang Gui’s wife, with little other interaction.
Noticing Li Xia’s kindness as she stood up for them in front of many people, Jiang Xia sighed quietly. She didn’t want Li Xia’s help to go unappreciated.
Zhou Lan agreed, so before Jiang Xia could speak, she addressed the Jiang Gui’s wife, “Enough! When we left our family home, you didn’t even leave us a single grain. We almost starved! Now, whatever we possess is because of our hard work, gathering wild vegetables in the mountains. We live in this decent house thanks to the villagers’ help. How dare you say such things?”
“Exactly, we were nearly dead in the mountains, and nobody bothered to find us. It was the village chief who rallied the villagers to search for us. Without him, we would not only be homeless but probably dead,” Jiang Xia added, reminding the villagers of the past actions of Old Madam Jiang’s family.
“Slander! You’re slandering us!” exclaimed Old Madam Jiang, her face reddening with anger, barely able to form words.

“Slander? How is it slander? Didn’t you pay for your theft?” Zhou Lan retorted, “Do you realize that your current actions are illegal and far more serious than stealing?”
“Yes, call the village chief if you doubt it. Let’s see if he agrees with a family attempting to claim another’s property after separation. Will he side with you or us?”
“Yes, this is robbery, and robbers used to be tied to trees and burned.” Jiang Xia warned.
Considering Old Madam Jiang’s excessive behavior, Jiang Xia felt no need to respect their dignity.
“See everyone, robbers still exist in our time! We were poor and robbed once. Now it’s happening again. How can we survive?” Zhou Lan’s acting was convincing, tears streaming down her face. Seeing Old Madam Jiang’s actions, anyone would empathize with the Jiang family.
When Jiang Xia walked in, Shen Mo stayed outside to avoid suspicion.
Luckily, she and her mother handled it well.
Hearing Zhou Lan’s crying, Shen Mo decided it was time to step in.
When Jiang Gui’s wife and Jiang Hua’s wife saw Shen Mo coming out, they immediately shut up.
This young man was very attractive, tall, and had an impressive aura. He didn’t seem like a villager at all.
Could it be that he was from the city?
Jiang Gui’s wife was thrilled. She had been anxious about finding a match for Jiang Hong, and here was a prospect!
The Jiang Hua’s wife also eyed Shen Mo. She had a daughter and wouldn’t let Jiang Gui’s wife family take all the luck..
