Jiang Jiang walked out of the door with difficulty, carrying a heavy load of firewood and a bundle of vegetables.

Her thin shoulders were already covered with thick calluses, as hard and thick as the palms of her hands.

The bruises and purples were faintly visible beneath her tattered clothes, which were undoubtedly irrefutable evidence of her long-term malnutrition and extreme abuse.

Jiang Jiang subconsciously reached out and touched his ribs, which seemed to be slightly warm.

She sighed silently, picked up the firewood and continued on her way.

After arriving at the market, she sold the things she had and exchanged them for some daily necessities.

When she passed by a vendor selling chicks, ducks and geese, she stopped, hesitated for a moment, and bought two adorable baby geese from them.

She gently stroked their fluffy feathers and looked at them with a smile as if she saw stacks of banknotes waving at her.

I fenced off an area in the backyard for the two baby geese to live in.

After Jiang Jiang left, the little devil sneaked around the house again.

But he learned his lesson this time and put everything back to its original place. But Jiang Jiang was so smart that he could tell something was wrong at a glance.

She looked around and understood.

He wouldn't find anything anyway.

Cut grass for the pigs and feed the geese.

Jiang Jiang is very hardworking, and the world seems completely different from what he had experienced before.

[Why didn't the host report to the village chief, or ask the county magistrate for help. 】

"They are not philanthropists. You have no contribution value. Why should they help you?" Jiang Jiang asked the system.

[…Is it possible that the host is too pessimistic and doesn’t trust anyone in any world?]

"Human nature is evil. It is better to bet on their kindness than to believe that mosquitoes don't bite."

【The host is making specious arguments.】

Jiang Jiang did not continue the topic.

Because the guests came.

There was a sound of gongs and drums, and several people came out from the road in a mighty procession. One of them was wearing a bright wedding dress and a red flower on her head, looking very festive. Next to her was a man wearing clean clothes, standing upright and honestly, with a simple smile on his face.

They came closer.

The middle-aged woman walking at the front of the team was wearing a red headscarf, with a beautiful flower behind her ear and a silk scarf in her hand. She was walking slowly in small steps.

Standing next to her was a young man who looked very honest and simple, with skin tanned by the sun and two rows of white teeth showing at the corners of his mouth. He was looking at Jiang Jiang with a smile.

There were two or three people following behind the man, all of them smiling, as if they were celebrating something happy.

At this time, the matchmaker saw Jiang Jiang, and waved the handkerchief in her hand towards her and shouted, "Jiang girl, come here quickly!" But Jiang Jiang did not move, just stood there quietly, staring ahead with an expressionless face.

Seeing that Jiang Jiang didn't respond, the matchmaker took a few steps forward and continued, "Jiang boy, look how good the old lady is to you. Today I brought you the child of the old Hu family. His family is well-known for its honesty in our village. I guarantee that you will not be bullied after you marry him."

After that, she pulled the man forward and pushed him in front of Jiang Jiang, smiling and saying, "Don't say that I don't love you. The boys from this good family are all given priority to you. Look, they brought their relatives directly to the door, how sincere they are. As long as you agree, you can get married today. Jiang Jiang, don't let everyone down."
