Those two old coots from Old Jiang’s family really won’t let go of their grudge against them.

Thinking about it, both Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan also felt the complexity of the situation, frowning together. However, with this matter, they didn’t have any solid evidence and could only swallow this bitter pill.

Jiang Xia held back her anger. Very well! The previous grudge against Old Jiang’s family for mistreating the third branch hadn’t been settled yet, and now there was another one. They would take their time to deal with them when they had the opportunity.

“I’ve got the idea, thanks for telling us about this, Xiao Wu,” Jiang Chuan said.

Xiao Wu waved his hand, “It’s all minor stuff. But, Third Brother, you should be careful in case someone tries to do something harmful again.”

Jiang Chuan nodded. But what he didn’t say was that apart from Old Jiang’s family and Old Sun’s family, they hadn’t had any feuds with other families.

While Xiao Wu was talking, Xiao Li from the neighboring house hadn’t said anything. It was not until Xiao Wu finished speaking that Xiao Li asked about what had happened. After listening to it once, Xiao Li frowned and said,” Brother Wu, did you say that Jiang Gui made some money?”

Xiao Wu nodded, not understanding why Xiao Li was asking this.

Xiao Li continued, “I saw Jiang Gui in the black market a few days ago. He was carrying a black bundle, but I couldn’t see what was inside.”

” Black market? ” Jiang Xia asked curiously.

Xiao Li nodded and explained the situation of the black market to Jiang Xia. In this era, apart from the supply and marketing cooperatives, private trading was not allowed. It was okay for households to occasionally exchange items, but when it involved monetary transactions, speculation would have to be brought up.

Speculation referred to illegal commercial activities where one took advantage of opportunities to make huge profits through means like short selling.

And the black market Xiao Li was talking about was a place where private trading could occur. Some things could be bought directly with money without the need for vouchers. Even everyday items like food vouchers could be bought there, but that would depend on luck.

“Uncle Xiao Li, where can one find these black markets?” Jiang Xia asked.

Xiao Li’s explanation piqued Jiang Xia’s curiosity about the black market. If such a place existed, she could sell the items in the interspace.

However, Jiang Xia was disappointed. Xiao Li said that this black market was in the town, and he occasionally encountered it, but it was always very early and had no fixed location. He also didn’t know who organized it.

Even though she didn’t gather any more information, knowing there was a black market was enough.

Jiang Chuan asked both of them to stay for dinner. After dinner, they helped Jiang Chuan’s family clean up before leaving.

As soon as the they left, Jiang Gu hopped over to Jiang Xia and asked, “Sister, what’s a school like?”

When Xiao Wu had mentioned school earlier, Jiang Gu had listened intently, her eyes wide open. But Jiang Xia didn’t expect Jiang Gu to be so keen.

“A school, huh? Schools have many classrooms, with a teacher’s podium at the front. During class, the teacher will stand behind the podium to teach you, and you’ll have classmates sitting around you studying together.”

Jiang Xia gave Jiang Gu a rough idea of what a school was like, and Jiang Gu listened very carefully. To Jiang Gu, who had never attended school before, everything Jiang Xia said was new.

Seeing how much Jiang Gu yearned for school, Jiang Xia couldn’t help but say, “When our family settles down, I’ll talk to Dad about sending you to school.”

Coming from modern times, Jiang Xia naturally knew the importance of learning, so whenever she had free time, she would teach Jiang Gu.

From the most basic calculations to some simple formulas, Jiang Gu learned very quickly. After Jiang Xia taught her twice, she could almost remember everything. Other than mathematics, Jiang Xia also taught her how to read and write ancient poems.

Jiang Xia thought that when Jiang Gu would be able to go to school, she would definitely surprise her teacher and classmates.

Jiang Xia thought that Jiang Gu would be happy to hear this, but to her surprise, Jiang Gu’s adorable face was full of hesitation.

“Sister, wouldn’t going to school be expensive? And then I wouldn’t be able to help Mom and Dad with the work. That won’t work. Grandma said that girls who can’t work shouldn’t have been born. It’s better to sell them.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xia gritted her teeth in irritation.. What kind of ideas had Old Lady Jiang been instilling in Jiang Gu when they weren’t around?
