Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

Chapter 68: The three girls can earn money now, and they will support their father in the future

Jiang Chen gently put his arm around Jiang Xue's waist, used his lightness skills, tapped the ground lightly, and the two of them flew lightly to the exit above.

"Mr. Jiang Feng, I'll take you upstairs." Chen Yuxi said, preparing to step forward to help Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng waved his hand quickly, stepped back a few steps and said, "Miss Xier, you go up first, I'll just climb up from the vines."

Chen Yuxi hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and flew up first.

On the way back, the group had an unexpectedly smooth journey, and even found a few prickly ash trees on the road. Jiang Xue's system worked again, and rewarded them with an enhanced prickly ash tree.

When the group reached the middle of the mountain, it was already 4pm in modern time, which was the ancient time of Youshi. As soon as they arrived, they were discovered by Jiang Dazhuang who was digging yam.

"Hey, isn't this Sanniu? She just went there yesterday and she's back today?" Jiang Dazhuang stood very close to the path and greeted Jiang Xue and others loudly.

Hearing Jiang Dazhuang's voice, Jiang Chen was startled and walked over quickly: "Uncle Dazhuang, you are still digging yam!"

"Why not dig? There's so much grain and everyone is having fun digging. The newly built warehouse in the village is full, and you see, we've only dug less than half of it." Jiang Lin, who was standing by, came over carrying a basket and took over Jiang Dazhuang's conversation.

As Jiang Dazhuang and Jiang Lin called out, more and more people gathered around. Soon, Jiang Xue and the others were surrounded by a group of villagers.

"Hey, warehouse? Oh, where is my grandpa?" Jiang Xue was looking for her grandfather in the crowd.

Jiang Dazhuang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "The head of the village didn't come today. It was Jiang An who came. He is downstairs looking for yam with others."

When Jiang Xue heard her father's name, she was delighted and ran down quickly. She searched for a while in the dense thorn bushes and finally found Jiang An who was looking for yam.

Jiang An was seen using his hands to turn over the thorns. The sharp thorns had already pierced his palms, but he seemed to feel nothing and continued to work. Jiang Xue looked at her father's hands covered with wounds and felt distressed.

"Dad!" Jiang Xue shouted, her voice trembling. "Don't do it. We don't need to eat yams. Look at your hands. They are all covered with wounds."

Jiang An was stunned for a moment when he heard his daughter's voice, and then subconsciously looked at his hands. He said lightly: "It's okay, this is how farm work is."

Although Jiang Xue had not had much contact with her father during the days she traveled through time, she could feel his deep love for her. Her father always gave silently and never complained.

In Jiang Xue's memory, her father was like the sun, and her light could be felt even on cloudy days.

As time goes by, my father is no longer the tall and strong man he used to be, but for the sake of his children, he has always been trying to change himself and put his love into every little thing, big or small.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xue couldn't hold back her tears any longer and they flowed down.

She walked over, pulled up her father's hand, and said in a choked voice, "We can have enough food at home now, and we don't have to work so hard. Sanniu can earn money now, and in the future Sanniu will support Dad, and Dad can just play chess or take a walk at home."

Jiang An was pulled up by his daughter. Seeing the tears on her face, he felt a little helpless.

He tried to wipe the tears off his daughter's face, but after looking at his dirty, calloused hands, he finally let go. He said gently, "Sanniu, don't cry."

Jiang Xue held her father's hand, and they walked out of the bush together.

Jiang An's eyes also turned red at this moment. He felt his daughter's emotions, but did not ask any more questions.

Jiang Feng waited at the intersection for a long time. He saw his sister walking over with her father. He saw that she seemed a little strange, but Jiang Xue just shook her head and said nothing, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing that Jiang Xue didn't seem tired, Jiang Chen didn't insist on carrying her. The group quickened their pace and headed home.

Old Master Jiang was sitting in the yard restlessly. Ever since Jiang Xue and the others went up the mountain, he had been worried about what might happen. He would go out and look around from time to time, hoping to see them return safely.

Jiang Xue and the others quickly entered the village. Because the people digging yams had widened the road, they arrived at the village entrance in less than half an hour this time.

Jiang Chen was chatting with a few women in the pavilion. She had already delivered all the meatballs she had made today and was now chatting with a few old sisters and women in the village.

"Old sister, you are enjoying your life now. You married a boy when you were young, and now your husband is the head of the village." Jiang Qin, the wife of the third elder, said enviously.

"Yes, Aunt Chen is better now than before. This Sanniu is very promising. Look at the jewelry she is wearing, they must have cost a lot of money! This bracelet, wow, it looks valuable." Another woman added.

"Not only Sanniu, look at her daughter Jiang Yu, she's also very capable. I heard that she took the top spot in the county exam this time, and it's said that she will have no problem getting the title of scholar in the provincial exam in April. This is what the dean of their academy said." Another woman interrupted excitedly.

"Really? Oh, my old sister, you finally made it." Jiang Qinshi became even more envious.

"That's right. If the scholar wins, his family will no longer have to pay taxes." Jiang Chen said proudly.

"Vulgar! This tax is nothing. From the teacher's tone, it's no problem for Jiang Yu to pass the imperial examination. The key point is that he is only eleven years old!" A woman sighed.

"Alas, look at my boy. Apart from eating and hunting birds, can you expect him to pass the imperial examination for you? We can't enjoy this blessing." Another woman sighed.

Jiang Chen listened to everyone's praise and felt even more proud. Her grandchildren were so successful, which made her very proud in the village.

"Look at what you said, these were all given by the child. I said I didn't want them, but she insisted on giving them to me." Jiang Chen smiled and stretched out her hand, revealing the silver bracelet on her wrist.

A group of women began to praise him with envy again.

At this time, Mrs. Tao said with emotion: "The more capable they are, the more benefits our Jiang family will get!"

"Hey, isn't that your third daughter?" Jiang Liu on the side suddenly patted Jiang Chen lightly and pointed at Jiang Xue and others who were walking in the distance.

Jiang Chen was startled and immediately stood up from her seat and turned to look. When she confirmed that the person walking across from her was indeed the little ancestor she had been thinking about, she hurriedly picked up the stool next to her and walked over quickly.

"Oh! My little ancestor, I was so worried about you. You are finally back! Are you okay? Come here and let grandma take a good look at you." Jiang Chen handed the stool to Jiang Feng who was standing beside her, then pulled Jiang Xue over and began to examine her body carefully.

Jiang Xue gently patted Jiang Chen's hand and comforted her, "It's okay, you see, I'm fine." After that, Jiang Xue turned around for Jiang Chen to see in order to prove her words.

Seeing that her granddaughter was indeed not injured, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and urged everyone to go home.

"Let's go home and make you something delicious."

Jiang Xue nodded, took Jiang Chen's hand, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

"it is good."

Jiang Feng looked at his grandmother's concern for Jiang Xue, and he was indeed a little confused, feeling like he was forgotten. He touched the stool in his hand, smiled bitterly, and then followed everyone silently.

With a creak, the door was pushed open. Old Master Jiang was sitting in the yard. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Xue and the others. He immediately stood up and went to greet them.

"Are you okay? Is everything going well?" asked Mr. Jiang with concern.

Jiang Xue nodded, with a happy smile on her face: "It went smoothly, Master, we found what we needed."

Old Master Jiang nodded in relief. Just as he was about to say something, Jiang Xue suddenly remembered something and said excitedly, "Oh, Grandpa, when Xier and I went to the mountain to look for something this morning, we unexpectedly encountered a group of wild boars fighting. We took the opportunity to pick up twelve wild boars, each weighing four or five hundred pounds!"

Mr. Jiang was stunned and asked in surprise: "Wild boar? Four or five hundred kilograms? Twelve? How is this possible?"

Jiang Xue nodded seriously: "It's true, Master."
