Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1051 You Are Such a Scourge

Meng Xinian was silent for a while before he responded.

”Okay.”

Chiang Xiao hung up the phone and turned to look at Old Meng. ”Grandpa, I’ve made some porridge. Have some and then get some rest early. No matter what, we need to wait until tomorrow to find out the results before making plans.”

Old Meng nodded.

”You’re right, I am indeed hungry. Serve me a bowl.”

He watched Chiang Xiao’s back as she turned to head towards the kitchen and couldn’t help but sigh again.

Luckily, Little was here today.

Otherwise, he himself wouldn’t have noticed, and Meng Chaojun wouldn’t have mentioned his headache to him, while that woman, Duan Qingqing, was truly as senseless as a pig!

And Meng Chaojun was just as much a pig!

Clearly, there had been no relief or improvement in his headaches after her massages, yet just to cajole her, to comfort her, he would insincerely praise her massage skills, claiming his head no longer hurt after her treatments.

Fortunately, Chiang Xiao came.

It was also fortunate that she was at home at this time; otherwise, when he returned, he would face nothing but darkness and solitude, with his son and daughter-in-law in the hospital, and he, an old man, would be helplessly guarding this old house.

Just thinking about that feeling made him shiver.

After eating a bowl of very sweet and warm porridge, Old Meng felt revived.

Feeling warmth in his body and strength returning, he felt somewhat more optimistic.

”Little, you’re right, maybe tomorrow they will find that the thing in his brain is benign.”

”Yes, that’s right. Don’t worry. You need to rest first. When Xinian returns tomorrow, he’ll take over.”

Thinking of his eldest grandson’s immediate agreement to come back upon hearing the news, Old Meng felt much comforted.

”That’s right, leave it to him. You may not know, but when Xinian was little, he used to ride on his dad’s shoulders, laughing like a little fool,” Old Meng sighed and said, ”Back then, our house was filled with laughter every day.”

Chiang Xiao didn’t know what Meng Xinian would feel when he thought about those times.

But no matter what, he had to come back now; otherwise, he would regret it in the future.

But what they did not expect was that plans can never keep up with changes.

At four o’clock in the morning, Meng Xinian received a secret mission, with no chance to explain or clarify his personal situation, he was already rushing thousands of miles away to carry it out.

Even this time, he hadn’t been able to call Chiang Xiao and Old Meng. This mission was also not to be revealed to anyone.

The next day, Chiang Xiao got up early to cook porridge for Old Meng and also planned to make extra to take to the hospital later. She added a bit of Spiritual Spring Water into the porridge, intending to remind Old Meng to only let Meng Chaojun eat it.

Eating a little now, it was hoped that it might have some effect.

But just as she was leaving the kitchen carrying the thermos, several people burst in, led by Duan Qingqing who, without a word, rushed at her, hand raised, ready to slap her hard across the face.

She screamed, ”Chiang Xiao, you disaster!”

Chiang Xiao’s eyes narrowed—how could she possibly let herself be slapped?

She quickly stepped back to dodge the slap.

Duan Qingqing, having exerted too much force and not expecting her to dodge, ended up missing and falling to the ground herself.

”Qingqing!”

”Qingqing, be careful!”

The people who had come with her were her older brother Duan Feian and sister-in-law Kuang Hong.

They had both received calls from Duan Qingqing early in the morning and rushed to the hospital. Meng Chaojun hadn’t yet awakened, and Duan Qingqing, having not slept well all night and cried for half the night, had bloodshot eyes and looked visibly haggard.
