Quick Transmigration: Host, Please Be a Mute Beauty

Chapter 53 Historical Fiction: Handsome Guy, What a coincidence, you're also cannon fodder 6

Jiang Yanchuan raised his head and patted his chest: "Of course, my older brother is the best older brother in the world."

Jiang Qiao peeled a candy and put it in his mouth, then put one in her own mouth as well.

"It's so sweet! This is the first time I've ever eaten candy. It's so delicious, with its sweet and sour taste."

"It's delicious, I'll make it for you again later."

Jiang Yanchuan quickly refused. His mother had said that candy was a very expensive thing, and his family couldn't bear to buy it: "No need, thank you. What's your name?"

"My name is Jiang Qiao."

When Jiang Yanchuan heard this name, he felt a little confused; he seemed to like this older sister even more.

"Does your surname also include Jiang? What a coincidence!"

"It's not the ginger you're talking about, it's the 'Jiang' from the Yangtze River."

Jiang Yanchuan didn't know that he hadn't learned that word yet: "Oh".

……

After walking for another twenty minutes, we finally arrived at the Jiang family's house.

Jiang Yanchuan happily ran to open the door; it was already evening.

Jiang's mother, Zhao Fangru, was cooking, while Jiang's father, Jiang Wenli, was chopping firewood in the yard. Jiang's father was a little angry when he saw that this brat had only just returned.

"Where did you go? Come back earlier next time."

Jiang Yanchuan ignored his scolding and cheerfully told his father, "Dad, the brigade leader has arranged for a female educated youth to stay at our house. He wants you to go to his house again."

Jiang Yanchuan's voice was quite loud, attracting everyone in the room to come out.

This was the first time Jiang Qiao had seen Jiang Zhouye's face clearly.

His deep brown eyes held a hint of ruthlessness, he had a high nose bridge, and his skin was a healthy wheat color, probably from years of hard work in the sun. He looked like someone you didn't want to mess with.

Jiang Qiao met his gaze, but he quickly looked away and went back inside.

Jiang Qiao was overjoyed: He's so good-looking! I'm so good-looking; I chose the dating mode.

Wangcai corrects: [Host, this is strategy mode.]

Jiang Qiao: [Is there a difference?]

Wangcai: ...

Jiang's father put down the axe he was holding and quickly came over to greet her: "Hello, young lady, you must be one of the new educated youths who arrived today!"

Jiang Qiao remained polite to the end: "Hello, Uncle, I'm sorry to bother you."

At this moment, Mother Jiang also came out. When she saw this celestial-like girl, her eyes flashed with amazement: "Since you're here, please come in and sit down. I'm glad you don't mind."

Jiang Qiao looked at the beautiful woman. They must have suffered a lot over the years. Their clothes were patched, and they looked older than their peers. Jiang's mother had many wrinkles on her face, but she had fair skin and was still beautiful.

"Okay, thank you, aunt."

Jiang's mother called Jiang Zhouye over and asked him to help Jiang Qiao settle in and make room for her to stay.

Jiang Zhouye remained cold and indifferent, completely ignoring Jiang Qiao. He tidied up his sister Jiang Yuzhu's room and then brought out a mattress to lay on the small bed.

Jiang Yuzhu and Jiang Yanchuan were talking in the courtyard.

"Second brother, who is she? She's really beautiful."

Jiang Yanchuan raised his little head: "She's a new educated youth who came to the village. I think she's like a fairy from heaven. Oh, and she gave me candy today. I'll share some with you. It's so delicious."

"She's so nice!"

Jiang Yanchuan carefully unwrapped the candy and stuffed it into Jiang Yuzhu's mouth.

"Second brother, it's so sweet, did you give it to eldest brother?"

Jiang Yanchuan scratched his head: "Not yet, it's okay, I'll give it to him tonight, you eat first."

house.

Jiang Zhouye finished tidying up and was about to leave when Jiang Qiao called him back.

"Jiang Zhouye, thank you."

Jiang Zhouye stood there, stunned. How did she know his name?

[Host, you've been exposed! You don't know who he is!]

Jiang Qiao quickly explained, "Xiao Chuan told me your name."

"Ah."

Jiang Zhouye left quickly.

That evening, Jiang Qiao ate dinner with their family.

Dinner was simple: dark yellow cornbread that looked very hard, a large bowl of wild vegetable soup in the middle, and a boiled egg.

Jiang Zhouye sat there, taking in Jiang Qiao's incredulous expression.

Jiang Qiao knew the Jiang family might be poor, but she didn't expect it to be this difficult.

Jiang's mother pushed the egg in front of Jiang Qiao: "Jiang, you just arrived in our Stone Village today. You must be tired from your journey. Here, have this egg to help you recover. We've really been neglecting you since you came to our house."

Jiang Yanchuan and Jiang Yuzhu stared at the egg, swallowed hard, then quickly looked away and began to drink their wild vegetable soup.

"Auntie, you're too kind. I'm really grateful that you provided me with a place to stay. Please give this egg to the children."

Jiang Qiao pushed the eggs back.

Jiang's mother objected: "Jiang, you don't need to do this. The food is already bad today. Listen to your aunt and eat this egg."

Jiang Qiao wanted to say something more, but she didn't know how to start. She was the one who had troubled others. Actually, she had planned to give Jiang's mother some food coupons and money, but she hadn't had time yet.

She took the egg, peeled it, broke it in half, and put half in each of Jiang Yanchuan and Jiang Yuzhu's bowls.

"Auntie, I already feel bad for bothering you today, but I can't refuse again. Give it to the two children; they're growing too fast."

Neither Jiang Yanchuan nor Jiang Yuzhu dared to touch their chopsticks; this was food meant for the guests.

Seeing Jiang Qiao's expression, Jiang's mother stopped making excuses. She glanced at the two little ones and noticed that they were indeed a bit too thin. She had a good impression of this educated youth and had originally thought he would be picky, but now he seemed very easy to talk to.

"You two eat, and quickly thank Jiang Zhiqing."

The two little ones said in unison, "Thank you, sister."

Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Eat up!"

Jiang Zhouye glanced at Jiang Qiao, his gaze indifferent, and continued eating.

This must be the first time Jiang Qiao has ever drunk wild vegetable soup. She stared wide-eyed in disbelief; it was so delicious!

[Host, you're like a wild boar that can't eat fine chaff.]

Jiang Qiao: [Get out of here, it really is delicious.]

"Auntie, your wild vegetable soup is so delicious! Can you teach me how to make it sometime?"

Jiang Mu looked up at the silly child. Who would think wild vegetable soup is delicious?

"Whatever you like, it's just ordinary wild vegetables with salt and a few drops of oil."

Jiang Qiao: Is it that simple?

"I love so much."

After dinner, Jiang Qiao wanted to help Jiang's mother wash the dishes, but Jiang Yuzhu simply picked up the bowls and left.

Jiang Qiao, in a self-absorbed manner: It seems I'm quite popular with kids.

The Jiang family's house wasn't big. In the past, the brothers Jiang Zhouye and Jiang Yanchuan shared one room, their parents shared another, and Jiang Yuzhu had her own room. Now that Jiang Qiao had arrived, she had to share a room with the young girl Jiang Yuzhu.

Jiang Qiao packed her things and took out a pound of brown sugar, a small bag of mung bean cakes, some grain coupons, and five yuan.

She took these things to Jiang's mother's room.

Knock on the door.

"Enter."

Jiang's father hadn't returned from the team leader's house yet, and Jiang's mother was knitting a sweater. When she saw that it was Jiang Qiao, she thought that Jiang Qiao needed help with something.

"Jiang, what's wrong?"

Jiang Qiao placed the things on the table on the kang (a heated brick bed) and said with a smile, "Auntie, I just arrived today and there are many things I don't understand. Thank you for taking me in. This is a token of my appreciation, and I hope you can accept it."
