Chapter 87: Chapter 87: The Visitor at Dusk

Chiang Xiao carried a basket of mushrooms on her back, with a thin layer of herbs covered on top, following her grandfather down the mountain with light steps.

Along the way, neither of them dared to linger.

It wasn’t until they passed Nameless Creek that both of them let out a sigh of relief together.

Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Seeing her joy, Chiang Songhai also touched her head and joined in the laughter.

"Grandpa, from now on, we’ve got to hold it in a bit, or else everyone will definitely know we’ve found something good," Chiang Xiao said, still reminding her grandfather after she laughed.

Upon hearing her words, Chiang Songhai couldn’t help but have mixed feelings of laughter and tears.

Who was it that couldn’t hold back from laughing just now?

However, he also thought that Chiang Xiao was right.

Chiang Liutao was on tenterhooks all day long.

She didn’t even understand why Chiang Songhai agreed to take Chiang Xiao up Bai Gu Mountain.

What if something happened?

It was so late, and they hadn’t returned.

Anxious in her heart, Ge Liutao couldn’t help but look out the door.

Just as Chiang Baohe, who had just been turned away by Liu Caiyun, saw her standing at the door, he thought of Chiang Xiao.

"Aunt Second, where’s Chiang Xiao? Call her out, I have something to ask her."

"Baohe, what do you want to ask Little Little?" Ge Liutao felt somewhat intimidated confronting Chiang Baohe. She hadn’t left the house all day, but Aunt Hua had come to visit, telling her the village gossip.

One was about Chiang Xiao, and the other concerned Chiang Baohe.

Ge Liutao felt it definitely wasn’t a good thing for him to be looking for Chiang Xiao.

"I’m not asking you, what’s the use of telling you?" Chiang Baohe said, somewhat impatiently peering into the house, "Where is that damned girl? I haven’t seen her all day."

"She went out with your Second Uncle to dig for herbs and hasn’t come back yet."

"Just her?" Chiang Baohe was skeptical, because Chiang Xiao had never liked to work before—how could she possibly go with Chiang Songhai to dig for herbs? "That damned girl isn’t avoiding me, is she? Call her out right now!"

Seeing that Ge Liutao didn’t move, Chiang Baohe couldn’t help but push her, "If you won’t call her, I’ll go in myself!"

Just as he was about to barge in, someone suddenly ran over, shouting loudly at the Old Chiang Family’s door, "Aunt Ho Laidi, Aunt Ho Laidi! Is Baoguo at home? Someone at the village entrance is looking for him!"

Chiang Baohe’s attention was immediately captivated upon hearing that someone was looking for his brother.

"Who’s looking for my brother?"

Chiang Baoguo, Song Xiyun, and Ho Laidi all heard the shouting and came out of the house together.

The person lived at the village entrance and said loudly upon seeing Chiang Baoguo, "I don’t know who it is! They came on a bicycle! There are two of them, dressed neatly, asking around for your family! I hurried over to let you know!"

Chiang Baoguo’s eyes flickered, and he said to Ho Laidi, "Mom, I will go take a look!"

With those words, he strode out.

But Song Xiyun held onto the messenger, "Were the people who came men or women?"

Upon hearing her question, Ho Laidi was displeased, "What kind of question is that? Don’t you know what kind of person your husband is? What woman would come looking for him at this hour?"

Song Xiyun became somewhat embarrassed.

However, the messenger’s expression was rather strange.

He looked at Song Xiyun and said, "There actually was a woman. It was a man and a woman who came."

Ho Laidi spat dismissively.

"It must be a married couple! What do you mean a man and a woman?"

Song Xiyun felt unsettled and ran out too, "I’m going to take a look!"

"You get back here!" Ho Laidi yelled, but Song Xiyun didn’t listen to her and ran off anyway.

Annoyance surged in Ho Laidi’s heart, and she shoved Chiang Baohe, "You go take a look too! Help your elder brother if there’s any trouble!"

Chiang Baohe was quite obedient to her and followed after hearing her words.

The messenger also ran after them, looking like someone who might miss the excitement if they were too late.
