Hu Xibing entered the door and greeted Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao first.
"Big Master, ma’am, I’m a friend of Captain Meng, my name is Hu Xibing, I run a tea shop in town."
"Oh, oh," Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were a bit nervous, not knowing what had happened and thus hesitant to speak, they both turned to look at Chiang Xiao.
Before Chiang Xiao could speak, Hu Xibing already did, "Uhm, Sister-in-law," he was also instructed by Meng Xinian to call Chiang Xiao Sister-in-law, but he couldn’t help but complain internally, Captain Meng, you’re too beastly, such a young girl, even calling her Sister-in-law makes him uncomfortable, how could you bite the bullet and take her as a bride? "Did you receive Captain Meng’s letter?"
"Have you replied to it yet? If not, could you write a reply right away? I’ll wait for you to finish, then take it to town to mail for you."
Chiang Xiao looked at him incredulously with a face of utter disbelief, "You can’t have come all the way here just to ask me to write a letter, could you?"
Hu Xibing also felt like crying but had no tears, "Captain Meng called me this afternoon. He said it’s possible that you might not mail the letter, so he asked me to come over and help you get it to town to mail. He said that if he hasn’t received a letter within three days, he wants me to take you to the provincial city next Sunday to meet him."
To actually take her to the provincial city just to meet? And certainly, it must be to give her a lesson in ideology, right?
That’s totally outrageous!
Before Chiang Xiao could say a word, Ge Liutao became somewhat nervous, "What’s the matter? Is Xinian upset because Little doesn’t contact him? Little was just writing him a letter!" In her hurry, she went to grab the several pages of letter paper, "Is this it?"
"Hey, you’ve already written quite a bit! Then let me take this one first and mail it for you; Captain Meng will surely receive it within three days!" Hu Xibing quickly grabbed an envelope from the table, folded the letter pages, stuffed them into the envelope, and turned to leave.
"Sister-in-law, you can rest assured; I absolutely won’t peek. I’ll seal it and put the stamp on at the post office, but I’m in a rush to leave now. Big Master, ma’am, next time you come to town, come for tea with me; I’ll reserve some good tea for you. It was short notice today, I came empty-handed, my apologies."
Hu Xibing spoke and then quickly exited the door, moving so swiftly that even Chiang Xiao hadn’t reacted in time.
"Brother Hu, wait a minute..." Chiang Xiao was stunned; she had planned to recopy that letter, to change the handwriting!
"It’s fine, Sister-in-law. If you didn’t finish saying something, just rewrite it and mail it next time!"
Hu Xibing had already pushed his bicycle and hopped on, speeding away like a wind-chasing youth, leaving Chiang Xiao leaning against the door, dumbfounded.
Who would have thought that someone would remotely control another person to rush over and urge them to write a letter?
Who would do such a thing!
And, what kind of luck was this? For an entire month, she hadn’t picked up a pen to write, and just as she’d finished writing a letter for the first time, someone came to take it away!
"My God, what kind of trouble is this!" Chiang Xiao sighed to the heavens.
But now, it was impossible to chase after the letter, she could only wait with trepidation, hoping that Meng Xinian lacked an eye for fine handwriting and couldn’t tell the quality of hers.
Yet Meng Xinian’s own handwriting was so beautiful...
With that anxiety, Chiang Xiao didn’t sleep well all night, incessantly dreaming about how someone could possibly do that?
However, even though she didn’t sleep well, when she got up the next day, she still looked radiant, showing no signs of lethargy.
The medicinal herbs from Space had given her an incredibly robust physique.
This time with Chiang Xiao joining them to go up the mountain, both Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang were overjoyed. It had been over half a month since she last went up the mountain with them.
