Chapter 78: Prelude to the Investigation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Gu did not understand what was in her sister’s mind. She was just happy she got to eat a few strawberries today.

When the two of them returned to the group, Jiang Gu was taken to her mother’s side for questioning, while Jiang Xia walked to her father’s side to share about what had just happened.

Upon hearing what his daughter did, Jiang Chuan asked in shock, “Did the man day anything?”

Compared to his daughter, Jiang Chuan had a deeper understanding of the political system.

Due to the war, the people of the country see their leader as a god. As long as it was a policy that was implemented, everyone would strictly abide by what he said.

Although her daughter only mentioned the problem with one leader, if they really wanted to capture her, it is going to be easy.

Jiang Xia waved her hand. “They will not be able to find me. I did not give them my name or address. If they really want to capture me, they would have a very hard time. However, if they are good people, the higher-ups will know about our situation and try to improve our lives as soon as possible.”.

The autumn harvest was coming soon. If what she said was effective, everyone would be able to have some food this year.

With coarse grains and wild vegetables, they could barely survive the winter. When spring came the next year, the mountains, forests, and fields would produce fruits. Then, they could catch some animals. They should be able to survive until the policy of land reclamation was implemented.

Jiang Chuan was still frowning. He knew that his daughter had good intentions, but they were just ordinary villagers now. It is not going to be easy to help the other villagers, especially in this time period. The moment they say something wrong, they would get punished.

Jiang Chuan’s speculation was not without reason. At this very moment, the Shen family was discussing what Jiang Xia said.

“Did that little girl say those words?” Shen Mo asked, putting down his bowl and chopsticks while looking at the man with interest.

“Yes. I didn’t expect a little girl from the countryside to be so insightful!” The man praised Jiang Xia as he picked up a mouthful of food.

Shen Mo was not considered old, but he looked a little mature in his military uniform.

“Uncle Wang, help me find out where that girl is from. I’ll report this to the higher-ups. It will be best if the girl can lead the way when someone does go to the countryside to investigate.” Shen Mo put down his chopsticks and stood up.

The man ignored him and continued to eat his food but he quickly remembered something and called out before Shen Mo could leave.

“Xiao Mo, why did the young lady from the Jiang family come back with you?” The man turned around and asked silently.

Shen Mo frowned deeply and said coldly, “I don’t know.”

Shen Mo always came back at this time every year to clean up the ancestral house. He really did not know when Jiang Qing had climbed into one of the carriages he came back with.

The man listening rolled his eyes and smiled.

Seeing the man’s expression, Shen Mo’s brows furrowed even deeper. He did not like Jiang Qing and had already made it clear to her multiple time. It was Jiang Qing that insisted on pestering him.

“I don’t like her.” Shen Mo emphasized again.

The man sighed.”So nice to be young!”

Shen Mo looked at the man coldly, and then his lips curled into a malicious smile.

“Uncle Wang, since you’re so free, why don’t you help me go back to the team and take care of those new recruits?”

The man who was still eating suddenly froze and revealed a smile to Shen Mo, “No. Did you not ask me to investigate that little girl? I do not have time to take care of the recruits.”

The man escaped right after saying that.

Shen Mo watched the man run away and fell silent. After a moment, he frowned and asked the soldier beside him, “Is life in the countryside really that difficult now?”

The soldier was stunned at first, but then he nodded silently.

In the 1960s, there was a big difference between towns and villages. People who could live in towns basically had an iron rice bowl in their hands. For example, in the town here, many people worked in the supply and marketing cooperative, as well as drivers, postmen, announcers, etc. In short, the work was much easier and they earned a lot more than farming.

The current policy was that after the farmers handed in the grain, it would be distributed by the state. The people in the towns only needed to buy it with food stamps and coins.

How could such a convenient and relaxed lifestyle not make rural girls yearn for the city?
