Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1062: Chapter 1063: A Familiar Feeling

Jiang Yingqiong had just returned from her checkup when she happened to see a young girl exiting her ward.

She caught a glimpse of her profile but before she could get a clear look, Chiang Xiao had already turned and left.

A faintly strange feeling surfaced in Jiang Yingqiong’s heart.

Why did that girl’s profile seem so vaguely familiar?

Upon entering, she saw her husband sitting on the sofa, lost in thought, with a rather self-deprecating smile. Puzzled, she asked, ”Hanzhong, who was that young girl just now?”

”Madam,” he couldn’t help but laugh, ”you have no idea, I just heard someone singing praises of Xinian.”

Li Hanzhong chuckled, then continued, ”So I couldn’t help myself and called her over, talked quite a bit to her. Now that I think about it, it’s strange, why I would say those things to a young girl”.

Indeed, after he spoke he felt somewhat baffled; those were things he should not have said.

Could it really be because he had heard what that young girl said outside, which touched his heart momentarily?

”Is it that little fiancee of Xinian’s who’s always been the talk of the town outside?” Jiang Yingqiong asked, surprised.

”Isn’t it her? The young girl’s name is Chiang Xiao...”

Li Hanzhong recounted the whole incident, his memory sharp, he repeated almost verbatim what Chiang Xiao had said, impressing Jiang Yingqiong enough to elicit a ”well done” from her.

”I never expected this. I was thinking of finding an opportunity to ask about this little girl in Xinian’s life, but now it seems, he has a good eye himself, having chosen a quite excellent partner. Why didn’t you keep her a bit longer just now so I could have a better look at her?”

Speaking this, Jiang Yingqiong couldn’t help but say, ”Actually, just as I was returning, I happened to see her leaving. Even a glimpse of her profile gave me this feeling of familiarity.”

”A feeling of familiarity?” Li Hanzhong was startled.

”Yes.” Jiang Yingqiong thought back to that brief look and felt more convinced of the familiarity, ”Shame I didn’t get a good look.”

”A beautiful young girl,” Li Hanzhong stood up, ”There will be opportunities in the future, but we must be going now, I still have official matters to attend to.”

That he could spare time to accompany her to the hospital was already a testament to their truly good marital relationship; otherwise, he really would be too busy to manage.

Jiang Yingqiong knew this and didn’t dare delay his time any longer.

Chiang Xiao reached the downstairs and returned to Meng Chaojun’s ward, and as soon as she approached the door, she heard Duan Qingqing’s voice and immediately didn’t want to go in.

Old Meng saw her and came out.

”Come on, come on, don’t stay here, it’s suffocating!”

Old Meng was dragging her to leave when Meng Chaojun had already noticed her and called her name. ”Chiang Xiao!”

In the room, Duan Qingqing also turned her head to look over.

”What’s up?” Chiang Xiao asked indifferently.

Meng Chaojun was suddenly choked up by her tone.

What kind of daughter-in-law was this?

Was there no such thing as dignity for elders anymore?

”Come in.”

A trace of smugness flashed in Duan Qingqing’s eyes.

Just now she had subtly reported Chiang Xiao, believing that Meng Chaojun would stand up for her to seek justice, and that he was likely going to reprimand Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao thought for a moment, then walked in but still kept her distance from the bed, not wanting to get any closer.

”Chaojun, let it be, maybe she didn’t mean it this morning, in the countryside they might be used to shouting and scolding,” Duan Qingqing spoke up gently, ”As for my elder sister-in-law, I will mollify her properly. How about this, she likes drinking tea, and we don’t have any good tea at home currently, why don’t we take some from father and let her try it first?”
