Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1782: Chapter 1718: Understanding Everything

He still preferred her face clean and fresh, a pinch so tender it seemed water could be squeezed out, now it’s all powdery at a touch.

Chiang Xiao stuck out her tongue, said as she walked downstairs, ”The quality of makeup products nowadays isn’t good enough.”

Meng Xinian’s eyes flashed.

Hmm, nowadays?

He felt that Chiang Xiao’s words seemed a bit strange.

The quality of makeup products nowadays isn’t good enough, so when are they ever good enough?

Why would she make such a comparison?

However, although this sentence sounded a bit odd, it seemed like a minor issue. Meng Xinian grasped this point but didn’t think deeply into it.

Chiang Xiao washed her face, changed clothes, and took him out of the space. Outside, it was already broad daylight.

Probably because last night’s events were overwhelming and they slept too late, Ah Liu hadn’t gotten up yet.

”Let’s go out and buy breakfast.”

Just as Chiang Xiao finished speaking, she saw the door open, and Ah Liu came in carrying a large bundle of newspapers tied with string.

So many newspapers, at least dozens...

Turns out he had already gone out.

”Dad, why did you buy so many newspapers?” Chiang Xiao was taken aback.

Meng Xinian had already walked over and took the newspapers from Ah Liu.

He glanced at them; they were expired old newspapers, and all were serious ones, mostly reporting national affairs, politics, and military issues.

He looked at Ah Liu and suddenly understood the purpose of Ah Liu buying these newspapers.

”You two are up? The kitchen has hot eggs for you, see them?” Ah Liu said nothing more, smiled, went to the kitchen to wash his hands, and then brought out four boiled eggs.

Chiang Xiao felt a bit embarrassed, she initially wanted to go out to buy him breakfast, but he had already been up, while the two young ones slept until now, it felt a bit inappropriate.

Her face was flushed.

Fortunately, Ah Liu didn’t say anything, ”Quickly eat the eggs, you can have lunch in an hour.”

Saying this, he took the bundle of newspapers into his room.

Meng Xinian watched his back, patted Chiang Xiao’s shoulder, and said, ”I guess Uncle Six wants to understand current political situations and sees traces of the head and Jiang Family in the newspaper.”

Li Hanzhong’s itinerary would be reported in the newspapers, meetings, diplomatic tasks, and Jiang Family’s traces often appeared in the papers too.

”Yes.” Chiang Xiao suddenly understood.

She pursed her lips.

Although Ah Liu hadn’t said anything and mentioned there was no need to go back to the Jiang Family, he still wanted to understand everything.

Knowing nothing right now might be a fairly uncomfortable feeling for him.

”Brother Xinian, I can’t be so selfish, right?” So, she had to go to the Jiang Family, see Old Master Jiang, and check their attitude towards Ah Liu.

”When are you planning to go?” It would be a lie to say he wasn’t disappointed, he just got a four-day leave, planned to spend time with her, and as soon as he arrived, she had to leave.

They always had their own things to handle.

”I’ll leave this afternoon, since you’re home, I’ll feel much more at ease.”

”Alright.”

No matter how disappointed he felt, Meng Xinian didn’t say much, just nodded directly.

Ah Liu had been reading the newspapers for an hour.

Indeed, there were quite a few reports on Li Hanzhong, and also on Madam Li. Not much about the Jiang Family, but with Ah Liu’s intelligence, he still caught some traces related to the Jiang Family, people, and events.

These were originally very distant from him.

But now he knew, these were his family.

Li Hanzhong was his brother-in-law.
