The Savior is just a 3-Year-Old

Settling Down

When Jiang Huaiying saw the alley, she was full of resistance.

She looked extremely disgusted.

“Where’s our mansion?” Liu said with a gloomy face. She hadn’t looked well since she entered Desolate City.

It was even worse than the place where the bumpkins resided, in her eyes.

Brother Wang immediately laughed and said in disdain, “Your mansion? I’m afraid that’s wishful thinking. You were exiled. All the exiles share a bed with the others and sleep on straw mats. You also have to work during the day. And you want a mansion? You old lady must be still dreaming.”

“There are only mansions in the inner city and you must kill a certain number of evil spirits to get one. You old lady…” Brother Wang was extremely disdainful.

Old Lord Fang remained silent for a while and asked with a deep voice, “Brother, I saw that there are also some independent yards in the outer city. Could you tell me the price of those houses?”

Brother Wang glanced over this group of people and sneered in his heart.

“Things in Desolate City are extremely expensive. Do you see the house there? On the outside, you’ll be able to buy it with a hundred taels of silver, but here, a thousand taels of silver can only buy the worst houses.” The man pointed at a house nearby. The wooden door was almost falling and the bricks and tiles had even shattered. When it rained, there would probably be water leaking.

The faces of the members of the Jiang family instantly turned dark.

Xia knew how much money they had. Their family had only four to five hundred taels of silver, which were given by those students before they left.

Each family had their own money as well.

Xia had around two hundred taels of silver in her hands.

Liu was instantly enraged and was about to rebuke the profiteer, but Old Lord Jiang frowned and lifted his hand. “Change!” There were men and women in his family and he was a grandfather. He could never let them sleep on a bed with some strangers.

Xia gave a hundred fifty. She didn’t offer to give more and insisted that it was all she had.

Jiang Huaiying gave a hundred fifty, while the old lady took four hundred out from the family’s money and offered three hundred herself.

The Jiang family was then brought to a small yard. There were puddles everywhere. If it rained, the ground would be covered in mud. Liu looked extremely bad and she was worried about their future.

“We don’t have money. Let’s go to the shared home. Please lead the way. Where can we sign up for what you talked about? Our family doesn’t have anything, but we’re all tough fellows.” Old Lord Fang had two sons and a daughter. His daughter got married and stayed in the capital.

His two sons both married someone from a military family, so it wasn’t hard for them to make a future here.

Desolate City advocated force. Brother Wang looked much better. He immediately took the Fang family to a cleaner house.

“Luckily, the old man has students all around the world. If not, it’ll be embarrassing for us to sleep in a shared home at such an age.” Liu sighed. Once she went into the door, she stepped in a puddle and her feet were covered in mud.

Jiang Huailu lay on her brother’s back and looked towards the west of the city.

There seemed to be something calling her.

“I’ll go to clean the house with mother. Rest for a while in bed first.” Jiang Huaian quickly made the bed and put on the bedding he prepared earlier. The bedding was thin, but there was straw underneath.

The yard wasn’t big and there was a house in the middle.

There were two bedrooms on the left, one for Jiang Yubai’s family and one for Jiang Yuqing’s family. Old Lord Jiang and Old Lady Jiang would sleep in the back room.

The kitchen was in the corner.

“Hey, I got this candy for you secretly just then. Hide and eat it. Don’t tell Huaiying.” Jiang Huaian touched the tip of her nose and went out.

Jiang Huailu put the candy in her mouth and she seemed to hear a faint cry from next door.

Xiao Huailu only pouted when she heard Yuan’s depressed cry.

Her eyelids drooped slightly as she ate the candy in her mouth. In a blink of an eye, she fell asleep.
