Chapter 12 Methods
Wang Ailing knew Jiang Xinyu had something to do, so she didn't stay, nor did she eat together in the cafeteria, and went home.
Jiang Xinyu returned home, took out a bowl of pickled vegetables, and sat at the dining table in the main room to drink porridge.
There were still tea eggs in the space, but she couldn't eat them now. The door wasn't closed; she didn't know when someone might come in.
Imagining herself enjoying her favorite delicacies, she pretended to eat delicious food. Otherwise, she feared she might actually gag.
After finishing the meal, no one came over. She didn't wait any longer, as there wasn't much water left in the water tank, she hurried to fetch water. With the nationwide drought, getting water was already fortunate.
Carrying a shoulder pole out, she didn't lock the door. It's an act of defending against gentlemen but not against thieves.
Zhang Yanhong finished her work and hurried to the Jiang Family. Seeing the door ajar and hearing no response when she called out, she thought Xinyu might have gone out briefly, so she decided to wait outside.
After a while she finally saw Jiang Xinyu wobbling with a shoulder pole coming over.
"Auntie, sorry about that, please come in."
"It's alright, Xinyu, your small frame must take five or six trips to fill this tank, right?"
"Not just that, it actually takes ten trips. Luckily, our house is close to the water well. Auntie, please come inside."
