Chapter 1814: A True Home
With her words, no one will easily let Chiang Xiao go into the deep mountains to gather herbs anymore.
"Xinian, I'm also grateful to you." Ah Liu patted Meng Xinian's shoulder and said, "I knew you were trustworthy."
He just trusted Meng Xinian, trusted his character, and trusted his abilities.
"You haven't had a proper rest since you came back, have you? You haven't had dinner either?" Ying Qiong said, "Then hurry home."
She didn't dare to keep them any longer and urged them to go home quickly.
Chiang Xiao glanced at Old Master Jiang, who was sleeping soundly, his complexion indeed worse than a few days ago.
She sighed slightly and retreated out.
After the herbs were dug out, she planted them in the Space. They had been planted for a day and a half, some for two days, and surely their potency had strengthened.
Plus, with the upgraded Spirit Spring Water, she believed it could definitely restore Old Master Jiang's health.
"Dad, Brother Xinian, let's go." Chiang Xiao linked arms with Ah Liu and waved at Ying Qiong, "Goodbye, Aunt."
"Goodbye, see you tomorrow."
Being called Aunt by Chiang Xiao, Ying Qiong couldn't help but feel a softness in her heart.
It's rare for her to find her closest relatives, having a young girl call her Aunt. And recalling that this girl once saved her, she felt some tenderness and gratitude towards Chiang Xiao.
Chiang Xiao was just thirteen when she fought against those ruthless criminals; now, not even eighteen, she's been sent to the deep mountains to find medicine fighting against tigers and poisonous snakes for Old Master.
Truly troublesome for her.
Thinking about this, Ying Qiong suddenly remembered Old Master's words, that the fortune teller said Jiang Family's benefactor; Old Master always thought the benefactor was Xiao Sixth. Now she wondered, could it be Chiang Xiao who is the Jiang Family's benefactor?
Because even Xiao Sixth was found and saved by her.
The more Ying Qiong thought, the more she felt this might be the case. She decided that when Old Master wakes up, she would talk to him about this.
Chiang Xiao, Meng Xinian, and Ah Liu went downstairs and got into the car arranged by Li Hanzhong, driven by the guards back to their home on Liuli Street.
Once the door closed, the three couldn't help but relax at the same time, then instinctively looked at each other and smiled together.
It seemed that returning home, leaving those people and matters behind, shutting the door themselves, they truly felt relaxed.
This was their own Space.
"Today, since Xinian returned, I told Xiao Li to pull back the people around us, giving them a day off." Ah Liu said.
Otherwise, there were always people guarding around their home.
"Thank you, Uncle Six, for your trust." Meng Xinian cast a proud glance at Chiang Xiao.
Look, as soon as he returned, Ah Liu withdrew everyone. Doesn't this show that in Ah Liu's heart, he is more reliable than all those people combined?
Chiang Xiao looked at his proud expression and couldn't help but smile.
"You two go freshen up first, I'll go make dinner for you, go ahead, go ahead." Ah Liu extended both arms, gently nudging them forward.
"Thank you, Uncle Six." Meng Xinian always felt that, now, Ah Liu has truly accepted him as a son-in-law, sensing a subtle change in him, treating him like family.
"Dad, then it's hard on you."
Chiang Xiao gave Ah Liu a hug, and just as she was about to let go, Ah Liu suddenly whispered, "Little, wait for Dad to make Jiang Family your true home."
