Shocking The World After Bringing My Family Back In Time!

Chapter 40



40  Back to the village

Even though they were gone for a few hours, the construction speed did not slow down at all. In fact, It was even faster than usual.

Seeing that they had returned, the village chief walked up to them. Looking at their cart full of things, he smiled and said, "You've earned quite a lot!"

"It's all thanks to the village chief for letting Xiao Wu take us there. Otherwise, we might have been scammed."

Jiang Chuan was telling the truth. They couldn't even figure out the price of the items, if it weren't for the letter of recommendation, it all depended on what Xiao Wu said.

"You are too polite. I have also gained a lot of benefits from you. Chief, you don't even know, the people at the purchasing station only gave me enough food for my two rabbits after Jiang Chuan brought such a big prey." Xiao Wu said.

"Alright," the village chief patted their shoulders, "You just need to get your things home now."

While the village head was chatting with the two, Jiang Gu rushed over to Jiang Xia. Jiang Xia was about to catch her, but the little girl climbed over her and onto the donkey cart.

"Sister, you guys exchanged the deer for so many things?" Jiang Gu asked in surprise.

"Of course not! We caught some rabbits on our way there, so we exchanged them for more things."

The family had discussed this with Xiao Wu on the way back. Xiao Wu was really understanding. After all, he knew that the Jiang family had to take care of themselves too and could not share everything with the villagers.

"You caught rabbits? You guys are so lucky!" The people helping out couldn't help but sigh when they heard the conversation.

Jiang Gu helped Zhou Lan and Jiang Xia unload the things into the cottage. While they were moving, Jiang Gu shared with Jiang Xia what happened in the morning.

Old Sun's wife had publicized that if they were willing to offer help, they would be able to eat and find wild vegetables. It brought a lot of villagers to their houses as most of them just wanted a free meal, and it angered the people who helped build the house previously. Only when the village chief said he had already recorded the names of the people who helped them that the others left.

Jiang Xia found the situation to be amusing. Did she really think that everyone was a fool? Even if the village chief didn't remember the names of those that helped, she would remember it. They had to return the favor to those who were helpful to them and those who wanted to take advantage of them should get as far away as possible.

After the two of them were done packing, Zhou Lan began to cook.

While helping Zhou Lan with the cooking, Jiang Xia vaguely heard someone saying that it was suspicious that they managed to exchange so many things with the deer. Then, someone else explained that they had caught a rabbit on the road.

Jiang Xia knew the villagers would be suspicious, but it didn't matter. If they couldn't find any evidence, it was useless to doubt them.

The fragrance of the wild vegetable porridge spread far and wide. The first ones who ran to the pot and waited were the group of friends that Jiang Gu had called over yesterday.

Many pairs of big eyes stared at the porridge, and people started to feel hungry one after another.

With the interspace water's help, Zhou Lan and the others only needed to eat their usual amount to be full. However, the appetites of these people were not small. In order to prevent the porridge from burning at the bottom, Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu had to mend the fire while Zhou Lan stirred the porridge with a spoon.

Jiang Xia took a look at the house in her free time. The walls had already been built and if they were quick, they might be able to build the roof tonight.

The pot of fragrant wild vegetable porridge was done, and everyone's eyes glowed with greed.

Looking at the amount of food that they had brought back, everyone would only have a small portion of porridge. However, Jiang Xia was not worried. Whether it was cooking or distributing the food, it was to build an image in everyone's hearts that her family was grateful to people. Even if they were to finish the food, she could just exchange for more, her family would not go hungry.

Jiang Xia took a small bite to check if the porridge was cooked, and she was immediately hit by the fresh fragrance. Although they had already eaten it once last night, Jiang Xia couldn't help but praise her mother's cooking.

"Is it cooked?" Zhou Lan asked.

Jiang Xia nodded vigorously, indicating that it was already cooked and that it was very delicious.

Zhou Lan smiled and then called Jiang Gu over. She asked Jiang Gu to bring over the bowls from the various households, and she gave them some porridge.

The first to enjoy the porridge was naturally the village chief. The village chief tried the porridge that Jiang Gu brought over and couldn't help but praise the cook.
