Chapter 395: Jiang Qing’s Family
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Today, thanks to Jiang Chuan’s rescue of Xiao Hu, Qin Ming’s wife had a change of heart about Jiang Chuan and felt guilty for her previous thoughts.
After they left Qin Ming’s home and had walked a distance, Jiang Xia finally expressed her worry, “Dad, I was afraid I couldn’t save the child, and then I might have put too much interspace water. Do you think his recovery might be too fast and raise suspicions?”
Jiang Chuan comforted her, “In an emergency, we had no choice. We shouldn’t think about the consequences now; saving the child was the most important thing. If a problem arises, we’ll find a way to explain it then.”
Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully and followed her father home.
That afternoon, Tian Zao had the personnel in charge of population management at the commune bring Jiang Qing and her family’s household registration proof personally to Jiang Chuan’s home.
Jiang Chuan was stunned when he saw the proof. Was this the proof he had tried so hard to obtain? And now it had been delivered to him so easily.
Jiang Chuan felt that perhaps fortune was turning in his favor, with things moving in a positive direction.
Now everything was ready; all that was missing was his eldest daughter’s family’s arrival.
Jiang Qing’s family arrived sooner than expected, which was perhaps the only surprise for Jiang Chuan.
He had planned for a month to finish building the house and complete all the procedures. Now, only half a month had passed, the house was only half-built, but his eldest daughter’s family had arrived early.
On the day Jiang Qing’s family arrived, Jiang Chuan was at work at the commune. Following the map drawn by Zhou Lan, Jiang Qing found her way home.
When Zhou Lan opened the door, she was taken aback for a few minutes before realizing, “My precious daughter has returned! Xia Xia, go inform your father quickly, tell him your eldest sister has come back early!”
Jiang Xia wasted no time and ran to the commune to inform Jiang Chuan.
Fortunately, there wasn’t much work that day, and Jiang Chuan hurried back. In good spirits, he even invited Chen Xing to join them at home as a guest. After all, they owed the finding of Jiang Qing’s location largely to Chen Xing’s help.
Of course, after informing Jiang Chuan, they also had to inform Zhang Ling. Zhou Lan sent Jiang Gu to the old Jiang family to tell Zhang Ling to come over for lunch, allowing the family to reunite.
Fourth Brother Zhang, upon hearing the news, shouted that he wanted to go too.
He was the youngest in the family, and Zhao Wan’s personality definitely did not take the initiative to discipline him. Therefore, Zhang Ling taught him a lot when he was young. When he was young, his urine scans were changed by Zhang Ling, so the relationship between the two siblings was better than that of other brothers. Since it was the first time he came to Pushan Village to see his sister, Fourth Brother Zhang naturally had to go along.
When Zhang Ling saw her brother, her reaction was much like Zhou Lan’s. After coming to her senses, she patted Forth Brother Zhang on the shoulder. It had been months since they last saw each other, and her brother had grown taller, now half a head taller than her, which made her happy.
Forth Brother Zhang urged Zhang Ling to join them for a meal, mentioning that he brought some wild animal meat and cured meat from the mountains, and asked her to invite her husband as well.
Looking at Jiang Shui picking his teeth with a grass root in the courtyard, Zhang Ling felt a mix of frustration and disdain as she decided to bring him along too.
Jiang Shui, hunched over with his hands in his sleeves and his neck shrunk into his collar, appeared timid and reluctant. He still clutched the grass he was using to pick his teeth in his mouth.

Complaining about the tiring walk, Jiang Shui grumbled, “Why go to Third Uncle Jiang when they are so poor? What good food could there be? Grandma might even stew a chicken today. Why leave good chicken soup to go to Third Uncle Jiang place?”
Jiang Ling, with a face full of disdain, replied, “Third Uncle Jiang situation is not like before; his life is getting better and better. Plus, with our cousin and his family here, they surely brought plenty of food. You’ll definitely eat better there than at Grandma’s house! Besides, you’re not the favored one; if Grandma really did stew a chicken, you should be glad to get some soup, not even expect any chicken meat.”
Zhang Ling spoke the blunt truth, and Jiang Shui had no comeback; he could only sulk and admit defeat.
Jiang Gu could detect the protective tone in Zhang Ling’s words toward their family and immediately felt affectionate towards her. A child’s thoughts are simple; liking Zhang Ling, she straightforwardly showed it by reaching out and taking Zhang Ling’s hand.
Zhang Ling was taken aback when a soft little hand grabbed hers, but once she realized what was happening, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart, as if she had tasted honey..
