During the meal, Jiang Qing noticed Shen Mo sitting outside, chatting with others, and occasionally glancing at Jiang Xia. She asked Jiang Xia, “Xiao Xia, does Shen Mo like you?”

Jiang Xia replied nonchalantly, “Big sister, what are you talking about? That’s impossible.”

Jiang Qing, having experienced more of life, understood matters of the heart and said, “If he wasn’t interested in you, why would he keep stealing glances at you? Maybe he came this noon just for you, not expecting so many people to be here and his plans to go awry.”

Jiang Xia didn’t take it seriously, responding, “Big sister, you’re overthinking it. Shen Mo is a noble young master from the county town, surrounded by countless young ladies. Don’t talk nonsense.”

Zhou Lan, unable to watch any longer, intervened, “Silly girl, let me ask you, among all those chasing Shen Mo, has he ever treated anyone like he treats you?”

Jiang Xia thought for a moment and shook her head. It seemed Shen Mo hardly interacted with girls other than those in the military.

Zhou Lan then asked, “Does he often visit other girls’ homes?”

Jiang Xia shook her head again, “But isn’t he coming to our house to discuss serious matters?”

Despite saying this, Jiang Xia had already started to think differently in her heart.

She began to wonder, could it be that Shen Mo really had feelings for her?

Her mind was preoccupied with these thoughts throughout the meal.

After the meal, Shen Mo suddenly entered the house to speak with Zhou Lan, standing right between Jiang Xia and Zhou Lan.

Jiang Xia hadn’t minded Shen Mo being so close before, but today, his proximity made her face flush red and warm.

Unfortunately, Jiang Xia, who had never been in a relationship, didn’t realize she was blushing out of shyness. She hastily cleared the dishes and went to the kitchen to avoid Shen Mo.

Shen Mo, confused, watched Jiang Xia hurriedly leave and asked Zhou Lan, “Auntie Zhou, did I do something wrong to upset Jiang Xia?”

Zhou Lan sighed, “You haven’t done anything wrong. It’s just my silly daughter being muddled.”

Shen Mo wanted to ask more, but Zhou Lan had already changed the subject.

After the meal, when Jiang Chuan sent everyone away, Zhang Ping discussed with him that since they were free, they might as well help with the new house. With more people, they could finish the house quickly.

Jiang Chuan thought it was a good idea, as all the materials were ready and they only lacked manpower. With Zhang Ping’s known work capability, they could surely finish the new house in no time.

When Zhang Ping went to work on the new house, Forth Brother Zhang wasn’t idle either and went along to help his brother.

The progress was faster than expected; it took only about five days to finish the remaining two rooms. They left the house to air out for a day, and on the sixth day, Zhang Ping’s family moved in.

To celebrate moving into the new house, Jiang Xia prepared another lavish dinner, but this time it was a simple family gathering without as many people.

Now that Zhang Ping’s family had moved in, they naturally needed to contribute work points. After the house was completed, he started working in the fields with Xiao Li next door, watering and fertilizing.

Zhang Ping was very capable, doing the work of three people by himself. Often, after finishing his tasks, he would help Xiao Li, earning Xiao Li’s good impression.

Even other villagers developed a favorable view of this newcomer from the mountains.

As winter passed and spring arrived, the matter of Jiang Xia and Jiang Gu attending school came up on the agenda. However, considering various factors, Jiang Xia needed to stay at home, so only Jiang Gu went to school at the start of spring.

While at home, Jiang Xia made a plan with Jiang Chuan. She believed that relying solely on farming was not sufficient for economic stability. To solve the villagers’ problems of food and clothing and to make them prosperous, there needed to be production industries.

After a few spring rains, the ground was no longer so dry, and the water levels in the canals had risen, making a fish pond a viable option.

Jiang Xia thought of the many fish in her interspace and decided to start a fish pond in the village. However, this fish pond was not to be managed by their family. With only four people in their family, they simply did not have the capacity to run a fish pond..
