"Just throw it away. I don't want those things anymore. Why are we worried about it?" Compared with Chunmiao's eagerness, eight-year-old Chunya seemed much calmer.

"And sister..." She kicked the small stones on the ground and said in a cold voice, "He is no longer our father. You should never call him dad again."

Hearing this, Chunmiao was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect her sister's reaction to be so cold.

She glanced at Jiang Xiaoxiao beside her. The five-year-old girl was sitting there quietly, with a fair face and clean clothes.

Look at my sister again. She is still wearing tattered clothes that Zhao Ergou threw away. She looks very thin because she has been hungry all year round. The clothes on her look empty. She is obviously eight years old, but she stands at the age of five. Next to Jiang Xiaoxiao, she still looked very thin.

Chun Miao couldn't help but feel a sore nose. She stepped forward and touched Chun Ya's head, and said in a trembling voice: "Okay, we won't call him dad anymore. Zhao Rascal is not worthy of being our dad!"

The news that Widow Xu moved into Rascal Zhao's house quickly spread throughout Yuhe Village.

Everyone is speculating, how could the perfectly good Widow Xu move into Zhao Zai's house?

In the past, even if her scandal with Zhao Zai was discovered by the whole village, she never moved into Zhao Zai's house for the sake of reputation. Why did she suddenly change her mind now?

……

"Everyone in the village said that Widow Xu is pregnant..."

The next day, Chunya came to the house with grass to feed the rabbits, and brought the gossip of the villagers: "When Aunt Wang passed by, she saw her lying in the yard retching. Zhao Rascal was so happy that he even asked Langzhong Zhou to help. She looks.”

After Chun Ya said these words, her face looked a little downcast.

When her mother was beaten to death by Zhao Lai Lai, Zhao Lai Lai was reluctant to spend a penny to treat her mother. Why would he be willing to spend money to find a doctor when Widow Xu was pregnant?

Chun Ya bit her lip, feeling very unwilling.

Jiang Xiaoxiao could only pat her shoulder and comfort her: "Don't worry about her, you are better off living your own life than anything else."

"Yes." Chun Ya nodded, holding the chopped grass into the rabbit nest.

After a while, Chun Miao also came with Old Man Zhao.

Since leaving the delivery work to the two of them, Chunmiao would get up early every day and go to the village to wait for Old Man Zhao. She couldn't worry about Old Man Zhao walking to Yuhe Village alone, so she went to Jiang's house with him every day.

Jiang Wei came out of the kitchen and loaded all the freezers onto the carriage. Seeing Chun Miao's equally distracted expression, he said, "Chun Miao, you don't have to go today, Xiaoxiao and I will go."

"Ah?" Chunmiao was stunned for a moment. Jiang Xiaoxiao was afraid that she would think too much, so she added another sentence: "Today my mother and I are going to discuss something with shopkeeper Zhou. I will give you a day off. Go back and spend time with your mother. "

The two sisters were distraught when they found out about Widow Xu's pregnancy. Sister Zhao, who had always been soft-hearted and sensitive, didn't know what to think.

Chun Miao did not move. Instead, she and Chun Ya finished feeding the poultry in the yard before going home together.

Jiang Wei and his party drove a carriage to the town.

Since we got the carriage, we arrived in town earlier than usual.

Jiang Wei took a look at the freezer in the carriage and decided to let Old Man Zhao drive to several restaurants in neighboring counties to deliver goods, and finally went to Yuelai Building.

However, when they arrived at Yuelai Building, shopkeeper Zhou informed Jiang Yu that he was not there. Jiang Wei could only let Mr. Zhao drive the carriage back first, and he and his daughter waited for Jiang Yu to come back in the restaurant.

"Uncle Zhou, where did Master Jiang go?" Jiang Xiaoxiao asked. Jiang Yu was not here when they came for the second time.

Why does this young master run out every two days?

Shopkeeper Zhou served two plates of soft jujube cakes to the mother and daughter, while responding: "Master Jiang went to the county government office to find his second brother."

"Second brother?" Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned. Why didn't she know that Jiang Yu had a second brother?

It doesn't seem to be mentioned in the book...

Moreover, people say that the Jiang family, the owner of Fu'an Trading Company, only has an only son. How could a second brother appear?

However, since we have a second brother, maybe there is an eldest brother or sister above us...

While thinking about it, Jiang Xiaoxiao picked up the soft date cake on the plate with her fingers and took a bite. It was not as delicious as she imagined.

She was used to eating the soft and sweet pastries her mother stuffed her at home, but the soft jujube cakes that were very popular in the town were not to her liking.

She couldn't help but wonder, if the ice cream and ice cream business couldn't continue, could they switch to making pastries?

But then I thought about it and thought it wouldn't work. The cakes her mother fed her were all made with modern fine flour, milk, animal butter, etc. In ancient times, there was no such technology, and she couldn't bear to use such expensive materials to make them. If the cost is too high, it won’t be sold.

Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed as he thought about it.

Shopkeeper Zhou caught a glimpse of her sighing like a little adult and couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you sighing at such a young age? Are you still thinking about the matter with the wife and brother of the grandson of a wealthy businessman in Qingping County? Don't worry, Master Jiang will help you settle it. Well, then the Sun family won’t dare to trouble you.”

"Hey?"

Shopkeeper Zhou had almost forgotten about it if she hadn't mentioned it. Jiang Xiaoxiao quickly asked: "What happened? Is it possible that Zheng Yaocai still wants to cause trouble for me afterwards?"

"Young Master Jiang's father is an old acquaintance of the headmaster of Suiyang Academy. The young master went to Qingping County that day just to visit his father's old friends. However, when he was passing by, he saw you being bullied in the study. He couldn't get angry, so he sent Zheng Yaocai away. I told the mountain chief about my unjust accusation..."

At the end of the conversation, Shopkeeper Zhou shook his head helplessly: "That Yang Shanchang was born as a Jinshi. He is full of knowledge and possesses both political integrity and talent. Naturally, he cannot tolerate such a disgraceful student appearing in the college. He even embarrassed himself in front of his old friend's son. Then Zheng Yaocai was ordered to drop out of school."

"This, so serious..." Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment. Is the academic style of this ancient academy so strict?

She didn't expect that she was just wronged by Zheng Yaocai that day, but he was directly expelled from Suiyang Academy.

This is Suiyang Academy. Many students have fought hard to get into Suiyang Academy!

"You don't have to blame yourself for this." Seeing a slight guilt on Jiang Xiaoxiao's face, shopkeeper Zhou added: "Anyway, Zheng Yaocai didn't study well in the college. He ate and waited to die every day. He harassed those students every day just because his family had money. A good official student. The old scholars and many students in the college have long been dissatisfied with him. Now that he has been expelled, everyone is so happy."

Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly sat up straight: "Then Zheng Yaocai hates me to death?"

"Don't worry, with the young master here, he won't dare to trouble you." Shopkeeper Zhou assured him, patting his chest again.

Even Jiang Wei, who was drinking tea next to him, said calmly: "Don't worry, if he dares to come, I will just settle the score with him."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao immediately scratched his head in embarrassment. I have to say that it feels so good to be protected by so many people...

However, Zheng Yaocai didn't dare to trouble her, so would he go to trouble Duan Yu?
