Chapter 220: Chapter 220 Zhao Xin Visits

"Could it be my sister-in-law?" Ge Liutao now truly felt a sense of alarm when it came to Ho Laidi.

Just yesterday, she was kicked by Little and drenched with a bucket of footbath water. It was simply impossible for her not to show up and create a scene.

Chiang Songhai shook his head, "Doesn’t seem like it. My sister-in-law wouldn’t knock on the door like that."

Ho Laidi always banged on the door forcefully, making it pound loudly, and she had no patience at all, slamming the door and shouting at the same time.

"I’ll go check." As soon as she heard it wasn’t Ho Laidi, Ge Liutao let out a sigh of relief and hurried to answer the door.

When she got to the courtyard, she glanced over at the next house and saw Chiang Caijiao quickly slip into the main house.

"Who is it?"

As Ge Liutao opened the door, she saw Zhao Xin dressed in a Supervisor Guard uniform, and she was immediately startled.

"Madam, greetings!" Zhao Xin, upon seeing Ge Liutao, knew he hadn’t come to the wrong place. That day at Nameless Creek, he and Meng Xinian had seen both Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao, and knew she was her grandmother.

"Ah, Comrade, whom are you looking for?" Called ’madam’ by him, Ge Liutao felt a bit unnerved. A soldier in a Supervisor Guard uniform in front of her made her unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.

However, fortunately, it was Zhao Xin who came. Zhao Xin’s baby face was somehow reassuring, so although Ge Liutao was nervous, she wasn’t scared.

Peeking into the house, Zhao Xin didn’t see Chiang Xiao, so he turned his gaze back to Ge Liutao and said, "Madam, you can just call me Xinzi. I’m here to look for Little Sister-in-law..." He abruptly corrected himself, "to look for Chiang Xiao. Is she home?"

The slip made him break out in a cold sweat.

After so casually calling her Little Sister-in-law these past few days, he almost addressed her that way in front of Ge Liutao.

If she found out that their team leader took such an advantage of Chiang Xiao, who knows what might happen. After all, Chiang Xiao is so young.

"Looking for our Little? Come on in, come in. Did you walk here? That must have been tiring."

Knowing he was someone acquainted with Chiang Xiao, Ge Liutao immediately relaxed and, not dwelling on how Chiang Xiao came to know someone in the Supervisor Guards, promptly ushered him inside.

After Zhao Xin entered the yard, he looked around.

The living conditions of their Little Sister-in-law’s family really were...

Poor.

Seeing the state of things, the items the team leader had sent him to deliver now seemed hardly sufficient.

"Who is it? Looking for Little?" Chiang Songhai stood up and asked. Just as Zhao Xin walked in and he saw his Supervisor Guard uniform, Chiang Songhai was startled and instinctively straightened up, forgetting about the wound on his back. The sudden movement pulled at it, causing his face to slightly wince in pain.

Ge Liutao was startled and quickly walked over to support him, "Uncle Hai, be careful!"

Zhao Xin also quickly stepped forward to help him sit down, "Big Master, is it your back that hurts?"

"Yes, it’s the back. Comrade, did you come to find our Little?" Chiang Songhai finally regained his composure.

"Yes, Big Master. My name is Xinzi, I’m here to see Chiang Xiao about something. Class hasn’t started yet, right? Did she go to school this early?"

Zhao Xin had chosen this time to visit precisely because it wasn’t yet time for school. Chiang Xiao went to school in the village and was sure to come home for lunch. He had hoped to see her as he had thought about how to speak to her on the way over. If she refused to accept the items, he had considered how to persuade her to fulfill the task his team leader had entrusted to him.

Furthermore, he wondered if she might get angry when she heard him call her Little Sister-in-law and how he would explain it to her.

But she wasn’t home.

Chiang Songhai eyed him for a moment and asked with some unease, "She went up the mountain to gather wild vegetables. Comrade, did our Little get into some trouble, cause a problem?"
