Jiang Xue followed behind Xiao Wang, quietly observing her. Seeing that her face showed neither anger nor sadness, she couldn’t help but think more highly of her.
The people spoke so loudly that Xiao Wang must have heard, but she didn’t mind. This showed that she had a good temperament.
Xiao Wang took Jiang Xue to see several types of houses, visiting quite a few places, yet she showed no impatience. No matter what Jiang Xue asked, she answered patiently.
Because of this, Jiang Xue was quite satisfied with Xiao Wang’s service and also found three apartments she liked. They happened to be on the same floor. She planned to have one for herself, one for her parents, and one for her parents-in-law.
However, this way, she would have to spend all her money.
Moreover, she had to pay for the surgery fee this afternoon, though she didn’t know how much it would cost yet. So, she agreed with Xiao Wang to come back in a couple of days to make the payment.
Xiao Wang agreed with a smile and saw Jiang Xue out.
After Jiang Xue left, Xiao Wang returned to the sales office, only to be mocked by everyone again.
"Oh, you’re back. Did you sell any houses?"
"Sister Liu, are you kidding? That person looked like she came from the countryside. It would be a miracle if she could afford a house."
"Exactly, and some people just can’t tell the difference between the rich and the poor. As soon as anyone shows up, they rush to them."
"Haha, that’s true. It’s been so long, and not a single house has been sold. Next month, they probably won’t even have a salary."
"I heard from the manager that if certain people can’t sell a house next month, they’ll be fired."
"Really? No wonder some people are desperate to entertain anyone."
Xiao Wang sat in the corner, indifferent to their words, as if they weren’t talking about her at all.
After talking for a while, seeing that Xiao Wang didn’t respond, they lost interest and one by one closed their mouths. Only then did Xiao Wang slightly curl her lips, revealing a faintly mocking smile.
Jiang Xue was in a good mood after finding the houses. On her way back, she brought food for her parents.
After dinner, Jiang Xue stayed to watch over Father Jiang, while Mrs. Jiang went back to rest.
Since Father Jiang hadn’t had surgery yet, nothing much happened in the evening, and Jiang Xue took a little nap. However, the accommodation bed in the ward was a bit small, so she didn’t sleep very comfortably.
Waking up in the morning, Jiang Xue helped Father Jiang brush his teeth and wash his face. Just as she was planning to go out to buy breakfast, she saw Mrs. Jiang already coming with breakfast.
So, the family gathered around the small table in the ward and had breakfast.
After breakfast, Mrs. Jiang urged Jiang Xue to go back and rest, while she stayed to accompany Father Jiang. Jiang Xue returned to the hotel but didn’t immediately rest. Instead, she entered the space, drank some spring water from the space, practiced some spiritual energy, wrote a short piece, and only then did she rest.
Lying in bed, Jiang Xue couldn’t really fall asleep; she missed Little Reunion. It had been two days since she left, and she didn’t know how Little Reunion was doing, whether he missed her, or if he cried. She wondered if the bamboo marrow she left was enough for Little Reunion to drink.
Now, she had no way of going back, and she didn’t know how things were at home.
At this moment, in Huanglong Village, Little Reunion hadn’t seen Jiang Xue for two days and missed her a little. As soon as he woke up, he looked for his mom, but not seeing Jiang Xue, he cried for a while. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel·fiɾe·net
In the end, it was Bai Yuhua who coaxed him with bamboo marrow, which finally made him stop crying.
