章 207: A Test

Zhou Wan and Xu Niu had already departed, but Zhou Lan remained upset for some time. Jiang Chuan patted his wife's shoulder and reassured her, "Don't worry. I'll go to the county town again in a few days. Once we earn more money, we can buy gifts and visit them. We'll see them soon."

Known for her lively personality, Zhou Lan quickly bounced back. Soon, she was joyfully planning her shoe soles project.

Jiang Xia patiently waited for Zhou Lan's mood to lift. The moment Zhou Lan began to smile, she called out mysteriously, "Mom, Dad, wait. I have something to share."

She stepped outside to lock the main door and returned, her actions rousing a sense of concern in Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan.

The cloud of worry once again shadowed Zhou Lan's cheerful heart. "Xiao Xia, please, tell us straight away. We can handle it."

Jiang Xia responded calmly, "It's not about me; it's about Xiao Gu."
