It wasn't long before a woman in her fifties entered the courtyard.
Tall and strongly built, the woman wore an outdated brown thin jacket, looking even more robust than a man.
She approached Elder Chief and joked, "My Da Huang has gone missing, and I guessed right away that Elder Chief Jiang must have lured him over."
It was a joke, and everyone in the courtyard burst into laughter.
Seeing that Elder Chief was busy breaking up a pancake into pieces to feed Da Huang, the woman didn't rush to take the dog back. Instead, she stood in the yard and chatted with Jiang Mingguo in the local dialect, which Jiang Yi didn't understand a word of.
Soon, the woman's attention turned to Jiang Yi.
Her voice was incredibly loud, and she looked kind of fierce when she laughed, saying, "This girl is really good-looking, she looks like a fairy."
Complimented so suddenly, Jiang Yi didn't know how to respond and could only stand there awkwardly, watching her grandfather feed the dog.
