Chapter 226: Chapter 226 This is Hard to Explain

Chiang Xiao was already exhausted today, but she still patiently explained to her grandmother, "Grandma, that Captain Meng is Zhao Xin’s captain, and I’ve only met him once."

Anyway, their so-called first meeting by the Nameless Creek didn’t count since she hadn’t seen them then.

"It was the day Brother Yao Cong and I went to town to buy paint, remember? I helped them out a little bit then, so this should be a thank-you gift. However, I won’t accept these things. But now Zhao Xin refuses to take them back, so I plan to find some time to personally return the items to Captain Meng."

Ge Liutao finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then casually asked another question, "What did you help them with? Aren’t those Supervisor Guards supposed to be very capable? Why would they need your help?"

Chiang Xiao had no response to that.

Anyway, she would never tell her grandparents about that night at Chu Liang’s House, it was too serious. With her grandmother’s weak heart, it was better not to scare her.

All she could do was vaguely reply, "It was nothing serious, maybe Captain Meng just likes to give gifts."

Gift-loving Captain Meng: Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!

This guy was always cunning. Li Hanzhong had originally agreed to discharge him from the hospital tomorrow, but he took a discharge application to Li Hanzhong for a signature. As soon as Li Hanzhong signed the agreement, he changed the date to today, showed it to the hospital director who then had no choice but to let him go.

The Chief Alliance Officer had agreed, so how could he stop Meng Xinian?

By the time Li Hanzhong went to find Meng Xinian, wanting to ask him a few more questions, he discovered that the man had already left his hospital room.

This made the Chief Alliance Officer so angry that he was jumping up and down on the spot.

Ge Liutao felt half-relieved, but the other half of her was still on edge.

"Then why does Xinzi call you sister-in-law? Do you know his brother? But we just talked about it, Xinzi is the only child in his family. He even said his parents are eager for him to get married soon and carry on the Zhao Family line."

Even if Chiang Xiao had helped them, what kind of help would warrant being called sister-in-law?

Chiang Xiao really felt powerless.

How could she explain this kind of situation?

If she didn’t tell the truth, there was no way to explain it.

"Grandma, he was talking about Captain Meng, it was just a joke, a joke they made!"

Just then, Xu Linjiang’s voice came from outside the door, "Little, we still need to rent an ox cart!"

Chiang Xiao slapped her forehead, oh my, she had completely forgotten about that!

Because of Zhao Xin’s "sister-in-law" comment, and the basket of gifts from Meng Xinian, she’d put her great-uncle and the mountain goods completely out of mind!

Chiang Xiao quickly went out with Ge Liutao, "Grandma, please take us to rent the ox cart. We got a lot of goods in the mountains today, and we can’t carry them home ourselves. We need to take them to town right away!"

Chiang Songhai and Zhao Xin also heard this conversation.

"You really found that patch of bracken? And mushrooms too?" Chiang Songhai immediately asked with surprise and delight.

Zhao Xin quickly stood up, "Need help? I’m almost ready to head back to town myself, I’ll go with you!"

Ge Liutao hurriedly stopped them, "All of you are hungry, how can you go like this? Eat the dumplings first, and then we’ll go after that."

Chiang Xiao hesitated as she looked at Xu Linjiang.

Indeed, she had the Space and medicinal herbs, and after resting for a while, her energy recovered quickly. But Xu Linjiang and Ge Dejun couldn’t do the same.

After toiling all day, not resting could be detrimental.
