Jiang Chuan had also thought of this previously so he just nodded.

When the short man came out, Jiang Chuan agreed with the exchange plan he had proposed.

“Uncle, we still have something to exchange.” Jiang Xia quickly added after they confirmed the plan of exchanging for the deer.

“We also want to use these to exchange for diesel lamps, salt,jars, and so on.” Jiang Xia said as she lifted the wild vegetables that were covered in the basket.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu also came over to join in the fun. The moment the basket was opened, two fat rabbits can be seen sleeping in it.

For a moment, the four man and Xiao Wu both had some subtle changes.

If Jiang Xia and her mother really met the deer based on luck, then was no way catching these two rabbits was based solely on luck.

The short man’s eyes lit up as he thought it would be great if he could get in touch with someone who was good at hunting. Without thinking much, he asked Jiang Xia to weigh the rabbit on the scale.

Xiao Wu didn’t think about the benefits of being friends with Jiang Chuan’s family previously. But now he thought that since Jiang Chuan’s family was so good at hunting, it could help him out if they could hang out more in the future.

Jiang Xia finally felt relieved when he saw that Xiao Wu did not have any special expression on his face. She had been worried that Xiao Wu would think that they were hiding their food when he saw them take out other meat and was unwilling to give more to the villagers.

It seemed that Jiang Xia had been overthinking it. However, in this era where everyone was starving, it was no wonder that she had such thoughts.

After weighing their rabbits, the short man then moved on to weigh the rabbit Xiao Wu had brought. He then started checking with them on the items they wanted to exchange for one by one.

To Jiang Xia’s surprise, even though they had exchanged very few items, they somehow still manage to exchange them all.

Xiao Wu, who was exchanging items with Jiang Xia and the others, also benefited from this. In the past, he would lose half of his weight after removing the skin and bones, but today, he was able to exchange everything with a full weight.

Jiang Chuan and Xiao Wu followed the three other men to carry the food, while the short man took Jiang Xia and Zhou Lan to get the daily necessities.

The short man told them to follow him to get the daily necessities but in fact, He just wanted to show Jiang Xia and her others around. His main purpose was to get to know them, if they could really hunt for such great meat all the time, it would benefit him if he kept in touch with them.

Jiang Xia followed the short man and stopped in front of a courtyard. When the door was pushed open, there were three large brick houses. It seemed like they were living a good life.

The short man’s mother had also returned with them. As soon as she opened the door, she rushed into a house, presumably to see the short man’s pregnant wife.

Before the short man went to get the things, he pointed out the chairs in front of him and told them to sit on it if they do get tired.

After he left, Jiang Xia looked around and said to her mother, “Mum, since Xiao Wu isn’t here, why don’t we exchange the things we brought before?”

Zhou Lan had the same idea before Jiang Xia even mentioned it. Although Jiang Xia and her father were usually the ones who had to worry about most of the family matters, Zhou Lan was still the lady of the house, she still tried to help out whenever she can.

“I think so too, but what reason should we give? If we suddenly have so many things, Xiao Wu will definitely suspect us.”

“Don’t be afraid, we’ll use the Jiang family as a shield. They probably won’t ask too much if we just want to exchange for things.”

The mother and daughter had decided to start acting when the short man came out. Jiang Xia was the first to speak, “Mom, I think the uncle who we exchanged things with today is quite good. Why don’t we exchange the noodles we brought here?”

“Your grandparents gave this to us when we separated from the family. Should we really exchange it?” Zhou Lan’s tone was conflicted.

“Mum, grandpa and grandma only gave us this noodle. The most we can do with it is have one or two meals, why not exchange it for something better? Mom, exchange it!”

“You are right. It’s not practical to just eat the noodles, it’s better to exchange them for something useful.” Zhou Lan said.

Before they could continue, the short man who overheard the conversation added, “I’m sorry! I happened to overhear your conversation when I came over.”

“It’s fine! I’m just hesitating. After all, it’s something given by the child’s grandparents. Actually, I brought it with me because I wanted to exchange it, but…” Zhou Lan continued acting.

Zhou Lan had only completed half of her sentence, when the short man, being a smart person, immediately understood what Zhou Lan was worried about and said, “It’s okay. You can exchange if you want, my lips are tight, and I never talk about other family affairs.”

“So should I really exchange it?” Zhou Lan looked at Jiang Xia with uncertainty, only to receive a firm nod from her.
