Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 779: Chapter 780: Met everyone that should be met

”Sister Xiao Xiao, I miss Second Great-Uncle and Second Great-Aunt so much...” Chiang Caijiao said pitifully.

”Save that act. I’m not going to take you back. Listen, if you make a scene at my school, I won’t guarantee I won’t get physical.” Once Chiang Xiao had finished speaking, she pushed Song Xiyun away without any mercy and walked toward the door.

With that push, if Song Xiyun hadn’t grabbed onto the foot of the bed, she would definitely have fallen on her butt to the ground.

But it was precisely because of this that she was genuinely frightened and dared not pull on Chiang Xiao anymore.

Yu Hang glanced at Chiang Caijiao and quickly followed Chiang Xiao out.

Chiang Caijiao tightly clutched the banknote in her hand, not daring to let Song Xiyun see it.

Yu Hang caught up with Chiang Xiao and saw her indifferent face. He couldn’t help but want to poke her with his finger again, but Chiang Xiao shot him a glance, and he withdrew his finger, giving her a smile.

”Chiang Xiao, smile a bit, don’t always look so stern, it’s quite scary.”

”How much did the bread from earlier cost? I’ll pay you back,” Chiang Xiao didn’t pick up on his comment, ”However, that five yuan you gave to Chiang Caijiao just now, I don’t acknowledge it. That was your own daily act of kindness.”

Uh.

Yu Hang touched his nose, surprised that his earlier action, despite being so covert, had been noticed by Chiang Xiao.

However, hearing those four words ”daily act of kindness” from Chiang Xiao, he couldn’t help but feel there was a strong sense of mockery.

”Isn’t she just a child? She looks to be about eight years old, right?”

”Ten. Chiang Caijiao is ten years old this year,” Chiang Xiao said as she strode towards the hospital’s main entrance. However, someone was hurriedly approaching from the opposite direction and almost bumped into them.

Yu Hang pulled her aside, shouting at the other person, ”Walking without eyes?”

”This isn’t your family’s road... Chiang Xiao?”

Chiang Xiao was truly taken aback this time.

She knew the county town was neither small nor large, and everyone was here. Despite having visited many times before and having lived there for a month and a half, she had never once run into Chiang Baoguo. Yet today, she had coincidentally encountered him.

Was it not because of her, but because of Song Xiyun and Chiang Caijiao?

Was this a deviation in the life trajectory of Chiang Baoguo?

Chiang Xiao, returning to her senses from this serendipitous encounter, looked at Chiang Baoguo, who seemed quite different from before, and called out with a semi-smile.

”Uncle, what a coincidence.”

Her gaze also fell on the woman beside Chiang Baoguo.

Of course, she still remembered Ding Meifen.

But the current Ding Meifen had changed quite a bit compared to the last time she visited the Old Chiang Family. With shoulder-length permed hair, a plum-red blouse tucked into wide-leg pants, and white sandals on her feet, she looked very fashionable.

She seemed a bit plumper than before, her cheeks full, obviously living well and in good spirits.

With one hand hooked on Chiang Baoguo’s arm, and Chiang Baoguo himself holding a child swaddled in a pink blanket in his arms—a baby girl.

As their eyes met, Chiang Baoguo flinched and hurriedly explained, ”This is my colleague. Her child is sick, and I’m helping her bring the child to see the doctor.”

Chiang Xiao really wanted to laugh.

Did he think she was a fool?

Yet, Chiang Xiao didn’t want to get involved in Chiang Baoguo’s affairs at all.

”Is that so? Well, you’re busy then.” Chiang Xiao said and was about to pass by them.

Behind her, Song Xiyun chased after her, ”Chiang Xiao, Chiang Xiao, why didn’t you pay the fee... Baoguo?”

Now that was perfect, everyone who should have met had met.
