Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Unspeakable Misery

While speaking, he stuffed the last tomato into Jiang Mianmian’s hand with a face full of affection, "If it’s not enough, I will go pick some more for you."

She had always blatantly favored certain family members, it used to be her eldest son, then her two grandsons, and now it was Jiang Mianmian.

Even though Jiang Mianmian had never been very close or fond of her grandma, who favored boys over girls, Jiang Mianmian didn’t feel burdened by the favoritism and responded with a sweet smile, "This is plenty."

Jiang Changhai, disfavored by the old lady, wasn’t upset either; he just grabbed a tender cucumber and started eating.

Zhaodi sat on a small stool inside the house, watching the touching scene between grandparents and grandchild unfold before her eyes, her fingernails almost digging into her palms.

How disgusting!

Sun Lixia didn’t mind it at all, she didn’t even blink an eye; the few persimmons and cucumbers grown at home weren’t worth much money.

Eldest had even brought meat back!

The others thought it was only proper, after all, each time his family came back, they brought nice things; taking and eating seemed only natural.

Jiang Mianmian held a cucumber in her left hand and ate a persimmon with her right, her large eyes scanning everyone in the room.

She noticed that everyone except Laidi, who stayed back to take care of his brother, had been out working in the fields and were considerably tanned by the sun.

Especially the boys Zhiwen and Zhiwu, who were both suntanned and shiny, it seemed they had really put in a lot of work over the summer.

The two usually lively and active boys now looked utterly drained, as if they had been battered by society.

The brothers were pressed by Jiang Changtao to work in the fields every day alongside the adults due to their poor grades, and it was truly miserable.

Seeing Jiang Mianmian sitting leisurely on the kang, eating a persimmon, Zhiwen looked at Jiang Changtao and said, "Dad, Mianmian hasn’t been back in such a long time, and all the kids in the village have been asking about her. They keep asking us when Mianmian will return. Now that she’s back, Zhiwu and I can take her out for a bit."

He wanted to use Jiang Mianmian as an excuse to go out and have fun; they were cooped up at home every day, working by day and doing homework at night, and these days had really been stifling.

"Huh?" Jiang Mianmian was a bit baffled since Zhiwen and Zhiwu usually disliked playing with girls.

Wondering how their attitudes had changed over the time she hadn’t seen them.

Once Zhiwen spoke up, Jiang Changtao knew what the boys were up to, but considering they had indeed suffered a lot lately, he didn’t stop them.

Moreover, now that San Ya was so promising, it would be good for them to spend more time with her and develop a closer bond so she might remember her brothers in the future if any good opportunities arose.

"Okay, you boys take your sister out, but keep a good eye on her," Jiang Changtao said, showing a rare understanding.

By then, Jiang Mianmian had also figured out Zhiwen and Zhiwu’s intentions, but since her uncle agreed, she didn’t raise any objections.

Now, only Zhiwen and Zhiwu remained in the house. Da Ya and others only entered the house to accompany them for a while when Jiang Mianmian’s family visited, but now they had all gone out to work.

"Alright, go out and have fun. Zhiwen, Zhiwu, watch your sister, and don’t go swimming in the river," Jiang Dashan instructed; he knew the kids couldn’t sit still but didn’t restrict them anymore.

"Got it, Grandpa," Zhiwen and Zhiwu said excitedly.

They had been working in the fields all summer, harvesting rice and had not gone out for a long time, so seeing they could step out under the pretext of being with Jiang Mianmian really thrilled them.

"Let’s go, Mianmian," Zhiwen said as he grabbed Jiang Mianmian’s hand and dashed outside.
