Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 658: Chapter 659: Do You Want to Sell the Orchid?

She absolutely didn’t want Chiang Songhai or Chiang Xiao to have any further personal connections with the Xue Family!

She was really scared!

Moreover, if they asked the Xue Family for help again, what would they use to return the favor in the future?

That’s why Ge Liutao insisted on making Chiang Xiao leave after she learned of Ho Laidi’s plans.

This could be said to be the first time she was so resolute in refusing Ho Laidi.

”Little, we don’t have any Lingzhi left at home, do we?” Ge Liutao thought it over but still felt somewhat uneasy, so she asked Chiang Xiao again.

Chiang Xiao felt their bodies had been well-nourished by now, and even without Ganoderma water, they should be fine, so she planned to stop for a while and told her that indeed, there was none left except for a little bit for Hu Xibing.

Later, when she found an opportunity to go into the mountains again, if there was still a need, she could ”find” another wild Ganoderma.

It was only after hearing this that Ge Liutao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When Chiang Songhai and the others returned that evening, their faces were beaming with joy.

Their harvest was good.

Ge Dejun had caught a hare in his trap this time, while Xu Linjiang had prepared simple homemade arrows for hunting. According to Ge Xiaotong, he had taken a liking to making bows and arrows for hunting lately. At first, he didn’t catch much, but after some practice, he actually started bringing home game now and then.

Today, he had shot three small ones: a rabbit, a pheasant, and a young deer.

That was considered a bountiful harvest.

So, all three of them returned in very high spirits.

”Little, there are quite a few wild fruits ripening on the mountain. In another month or two, you can eat as many wild fruits as you want till you’re full!” Xu Linjiang reported eagerly to Chiang Xiao as he walked in the door.

After hearing this, Chiang Xiao was tempted, but she still thought it would be better to go later; the wild fruits weren’t ripe yet and inedible for now.

However, her top priority at the moment was to save money to renovate that apartment in the provincial city, so she was hesitating whether or not to continue heading to the mountains to look for wild game.

”Little will start school soon, skipping a grade to ninth. She should focus on her studies and strive to make a good impression on the principal and teachers. She can go to the mountain later,” De Jun said.

His words struck a chord with Chiang Songhai.

He, too, was a bit worried about Chiang Xiao’s grades.

Skipping two grades, could she really keep up with her studies?

”Alright, then let’s wait until I have taken a unit test after school starts, and you guys can rest assured once I get my results,” Chiang Xiao nodded in agreement.

That night, after everyone had gone to sleep, she entered the Space.

The scent in the Space intoxicated her the moment she smelled it.

Then she saw the Orchid that had bloomed, with its pink and white petals tinged with purple; it was so elegantly beautiful that it was mesmerizing, and it had a total of seven blossoms.

There seemed to be a mist surrounding the Orchid. Chiang Xiao crouched beside it, becoming so captivated that she felt entranced.

Suddenly, she was conflicted in her heart.

Should she simply sell this Orchid?

If she could find the right place and meet an expert buyer, this Orchid would certainly fetch a good price.

By doing so, she might be able to cover the costs for the house renovation and furniture.

But looking at the elegant Orchid, she found it hard to part with.

Chiang Xiao sighed.

In the three days before school started, Chiang Xiao was in a state of being observed.

She was indeed assigned to Class 1 of the ninth grade.

This class was full of top students.

Of course, all the students in the class were older than Chiang Xiao.

They were generally two years older, but there were also those three or four years older; some started school late.
