Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 585: Chapter 586: Wronged and Sorrowful (+24 for Alliance Leader)

Zheng Yucheng dropped them off near their hotel, and after Chiang Xiao said she wanted to explore the night market, he bid them farewell and left. He also repeatedly invited Chiang Xiao to visit the association and the gallery whenever she had time.

Now that Chiang Xiao was a member of the association, they had this additional connection, and Zheng Yucheng felt that he should take extra care of her.

”Sigh, last time I came to the provincial city and met Brother Liujin, he was still very strong and energetic. I didn’t expect him to have aged so much this time,” Chiang Songhai couldn’t help but sigh on the way to the hotel, ”People say that time flows like water, and it seems to be true. In the blink of an eye, people get old, and you never know when they’ll be buried.”

Seeing Xue Liujin like this, and being unable to help at all, made him feel somewhat distressed and caused him to reflect.

”Paying attention to diet and exercising more can help. When you’re in good health, aging naturally slows down,” Chiang Xiao said, holding Ge Liutao’s hand.

Suddenly, Chiang Songhai stopped, turned around to look at Chiang Xiao, and hesitated before saying, ”Little Little, actually, when I was at the Xue Family’s place just now, I wanted to ask you about your Ganoderma Lucidum Slices, do you still have any?”

Chiang Xiao had told them that she obtained a very large Ganoderma, cut it into very thin slices, and she would only use a small piece each time she boiled water.

But seeing such good effects, Chiang Songhai became interested.

”There’s a little bit left, Grandpa, what’s wrong?”

”I was thinking, Grandpa Xue’s problem with insomnia is really hard to bear. Ganoderma can help replenish qi and calm the mind, and it’s actually quite suitable for him,” Chiang Songhai said, ”He’s an old revolutionary, a veteran. The past wasn’t easy for him, and now that he’s old, he’s riddled with health problems. If you’re willing, could you share some of your Ganoderma with him? Let him also drink the Ganoderma water; I reckon it should be effective.”

Chiang Xiao was taken aback.

She hadn’t expected Chiang Songhai to be aiming for her supply of Ganoderma for Xue Liujin.

Of course, she had Ganoderma; her Space was practically inexhaustible. Every time she removed a small mushroom, a new one would grow back within a few days.

Of course, the mother plant was absolutely not to be touched.

But Xue Liujin was just an outsider; her Ganoderma was Spiritual Medicine from the Space. Chiang Xiao did not want to give it away initially, but Chiang Songhai’s words had moved her.

An old revolutionary, an old soldier from the past. Those days were not easy, and now that he was old, he deserved a healthy and comfortable retirement.

”There’s some left, but I haven’t brought much with me, you know. We almost finished what I brought during our stay at Tea Garden Villa. How about this: after we go back, I’ll send some to Grandpa Xue. What do you think?”

To her surprise, upon hearing her words, Chiang Songhai became anxious to return.

”Then let’s go back tomorrow. Insomnia is very hard to endure. The sooner we send the items, the sooner Brother Liujin can start drinking the Ganoderma water. Maybe his condition will improve sooner too,” he suggested.

As for the fact that Chiang Songhai changed his mind after visiting the Xue Family—deciding not to tour the city and hurrying back to Peace Town the next day—the most disheartened person was not Chiang Xiao, but Meng Xinian.

”I still have a few days off,” he said, looking at Chiang Xiao with a somewhat pitiful gaze.

Weren’t these days meant to be spent traveling around with him?

The last time they came, they hadn’t really explored everywhere either.

After sending her grandparents back to their room, Chiang Xiao went to report to Captain Meng.

After hearing her story, a certain Mr. Meng’s face turned dark, leaving her somewhat at a loss for words.

”But Grandpa really is in a hurry to get back.”

Chiang Xiao was also feeling quite frustrated, okay?
