Shocking The World After Bringing My Family Back In Time! Chapter 24

Chapter 24

Leaving the Jiang family
On the way back to the Jiang family’s house, Jiang Xia heard a lot of discussions about her family.
“Hey, what kind of deity do you think Jiang Chuan offended? He just came down from the mountains yesterday, and now he wants to move out. His mother is so cruel that she doesn’t want to share anything with him. How can there be such a mother?”
“Now that you mention it, I remember that there were rumors in the village saying that Jiang Chuan isn’t a child of the Jiang family. He was picked up from the streets.”
“Picked up from the streets? Impossible! In this day and age, no family could fill their own stomachs, yet they had the mood to pick up children?”
“I didn’t believe it at first either, but look at how the Jiang family treated Jiang Chuan. Although it was normal to have a favorite child, it didn’t make sense Jiang Chuan was mistreated.”
Jiang Xia perked up her ears and listened carefully to the topic. She, too, was suspicious of the relationship between her father and the Jiang family.
At the Jiang family’s house, Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan went to the house to pack their things while Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu waited outside.
It wasn’t that they were afraid Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu would cause trouble. They were actually worried that they would injure themselves again.
While Jiang Xia was drawing cute characters on the ground for his sister, a shadow loomed over them.
“You two money-losing things, move aside. Why are you blocking the door? Are you keeping a look out for your parents?”
The woman’s voice sounded like a new piece of chalk scribbling on the blackboard. When she heard the woman’s raised voice, Jiang Xia felt like covering her ears.
“What’s there to be a lookout for?” Jiang Xia asked calmly without raising his head.
“Hmph! Perhaps they were up to no good and wanted to take away things that belonged to the Jiang family. Move aside and open the door.”
Jiang Gui’s wife was here to pick a fight with them. Everyone in the Jiang family knew that Jiang Chuan was poor. She just wanted to pick a fight and make them unhappy before they left.
“Aunty, mind your words. You know in your heart whose hands are not clean. Five years ago, who was the one that took the fifty cents from the locked cabinet? Do you need me to tell you?” Jiang Xia’s voice was not loud, so only the three could hear him.
Upon hearing this, the eldest daughter-in-law’s face turned pale. She said sternly, “What nonsense are you talking about, you worthless thing?”
“I still remember the extra things you put back after that. Now that my family is moving out, do you think grandma will suspect you if I mention this? If she really starts suspecting you, your coming days won’t be easy!” Jiang Xia said while raising her head and revealing a malicious smile.
Jiang Xia used to be very smart and had a very good memory, so it was easy for her to remember things. She became so quiet and did not like to talk or look at others because she had gotten abused by the Jiang family.
“You! You!” Jiang Gui’s wife was getting annoyed but did not dare to say anything.
Because she was no longer trying to stir up trouble, Jiang Xia pulled Jiang Gu along and started drawing other things.
When Jiang Chuan finished packing up, he saw Jiang Gui’s wife standing at the door, and his two precious daughters were squatting in front of her.
Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan hurried forward and carried them.
“Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?” Jiang Chuan asked coldly.
Jiang Gui’s wife was about to fight back when she saw Jiang Xia’s cold gaze. In an instant, all the vulgarities were swallowed back into her stomach.
“I’m just checking to see if you’ve taken anything that belonged to the Jiang family.” Jiang Gui’s wife said.
Jiang Chuan knew she was here to cause trouble after hearing what she had to say, so he ignored her and walked out of the gate.
Zhou Lan followed him and took two steps forward. Feeling frustrated, she turned around and gave the eldest daughter-in-law the middle finger.
Sitting in his father’s arms, Jiang Xia couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Xiao Xia, what are you laughing at?”
“It’s nothing. I just saw mother give aunty a gift. ”
“Eh? What gift?” Jiang Chuan was full of questions.
“Father.” Jiang Gu called out, and Jiang Chuan turned around.
“Mother just did this to her,” Jiang Gu said while showing her middle finger.
Seeing her daughter’s honesty, Zhou Lan quickly pressed her hand down and smiled at Jiang Chuan.
When Jiang Xia saw the hand gestures, he could clearly feel his father’s face darken. His expression then turned helpless. There was nothing he could do when he pampers his wife so much!
