Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 823: Chapter 824: They Met

At that time, Sister-in-law Zhang was still worried that after Zhang Xiaomei’s mother returned, she would come to make a fuss because she had always wanted the house. Later, Chu Liang also mentioned a few times that Zhang Xiaomei had brought people to cause trouble several times, but he had always managed to deal with it.

Chiang Xiao had a lot of trust in Chu Liang’s capability.

Of course, as Chu Liang had told her, the main reason for this was that Meng Xinian had spoken to the head of the public security bureau, and besides, Zheng Yucheng and Xue Liujin had also greeted Uncle Ming, the deputy head. The Zhang Family mother and daughter were now key targets for them to watch. Knowing that Chiang Xiao had support behind her, they didn’t dare to cause further trouble.

Chu Liang had brought up that, at most, they would occasionally come outside the door to curse, but he always pretended not to hear.

Chiang Xiao had been to the provincial city a few times but had never encountered them. This was actually the first time since she bought the house.

So, the voice of the older woman was that of Zhang Xiaomei’s mother, the mother-in-law of Sister-in-law Zhang?

Listening to what she said, Chiang Xiao really felt disgusted in waves.

No wonder Sister-in-law Zhang felt this old woman was difficult to deal with at that time; she was simply a shameless old lady!

However, what caught Chiang Xiao’s attention was the mention of ”Peace Town.”

This woman had been to Peace Town? Hooked up with some old man?

Why did Chiang Xiao find these words so familiar?

The second thing that caught her attention was the mention of the young man they had just encountered.

That physique, surely strong...

Looked somewhat familiar...

Chiang Xiao thought that maybe because she was thinking about that man, she was so sensitively associating these pieces of information with him.

Zhang Xiaomei and her mother had walked over to this side, and they both stopped in unison, looking at the courtyard that now belonged to Chiang Xiao.

”Dammit, I just get so furious every time I see this house!” Zhang Xiaomei spat toward the house, ”Mother, it should’ve been ours! It’s all because my brother indulges my sister-in-law too much. In my opinion, she should’ve been beaten to death! How dare she sell this house!”

”Your sister-in-law is pregnant again, would your brother dare to hit her?” It was then that Chiang Xiao finally saw what Zhang Xiaomei’s mother looked like: a plump figure wearing a crimson cotton-padded coat, appearing to be in her fifties but definitely looked more fashionable and trendy than the average woman of the same age. She poked Zhang Xiaomei’s forehead, saying, ”I don’t see you doing anything commendable either. If you hadn’t offended Uncle Ming, would he be watching us like a hawk now?”

Zhang Xiaomei staggered from the poke, ”Mother, then maybe you should go and ’take care’ of Uncle Ming. Once you get that sort of relationship with him, he’ll definitely look out for me in the future and do us favors... Oh no, wait! I remember who that man was just now!”

Chiang Xiao watched as she suddenly turned around and dragged her mother back the way they came.

”No wonder I thought that man’s silhouette was so handsome from behind! He’s the one who went to the public security bureau last time! Hurry, hurry, mother, let’s go back. Wasn’t there a man asking us if we recognized him just now? I think the man behind him was not someone to be trifled with, surely an adversary! We should chase after that other man, I’m going to tell him that I know who his fiancée is!”

As Chiang Xiao listened to this, all confusion vanished. Her eyes lit up, and her heart started racing.

Seeing Zhang Xiaomei indeed dragging her mother back in a mad dash, Chiang Xiao immediately followed suit.

The words of Zhang Xiaomei were unclear, but she still understood!

She also understood who the person Zhang Xiaomei was referring to!
