Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2199: Chapter 2135: Does My Dad Look Like He’s Collecting Junk?

As her father, he couldn’t teach her, couldn’t protect her. He hadn’t contributed a single effort; what right did he have to criticize the grandparents who at least raised Chiang Xiao?

Chiang Xiao took a deep breath.

The reason she was so tolerant of her grandparents now was because she had already hated them in her previous life.

Moreover, in her previous life, her grandmother had passed away five years ago, and her grandfather later died alone, without any family by his side.

She felt that the resentment she held towards them in her past life had been resolved, so in this life she was more forgiving towards them.

However, it’s fine to treat her that way, but why did they have to say such things to her father?

Don’t they know what kind of person Chiang Qingzhu is?

How could they shamelessly claim that everything Chiang Qingzhu said about him was good, and she never uttered a bad word?

”Grandma, my dad doesn’t need her affection at all.”

Chiang Xiao said coldly.

Ge Liutao felt heartache thinking about her daughter, whose whereabouts were still unknown, and with Ah Liu now successfully recovering from surgery, living alone but getting along well with Little. If only the three of them could reunite, how wonderful would that be.

She and Chiang Songhai could stay in the Capital City to cook for them, and help take care of their children in the future. Wouldn’t that be a happy and harmonious family?

Ge Liutao lightly patted Chiang Xiao’s arm, a bit reproachfully saying, ”Look at you, child! What are you talking about? That’s your biological mom, and this is your biological dad. Isn’t it better for your biological mom and dad to be together? Your dad is still young, he can’t stay single forever!”

Then she turned to Ah Liu, wiping tears from her eyes, ”Little’s dad, people need to broaden their hearts, and life becomes much easier. Maybe in the future, you’ll have another child, a brother for Little, and they won’t be lonely anymore. The siblings can support and take care of each other...”

Chiang Xiao couldn’t believe her ears and widened her eyes at her, ”Grandma!”

Just moments ago, she thought Ge Liutao was merely defending Chen Zhu, unwilling to listen to Ah Liu denounce her.

But now hearing Ge Liutao’s intentions, she was actually contemplating bringing Chen Zhu back, pairing her with Ah Liu, and having them bear more children?

She never imagined Ge Liutao would have such thoughts!

”Little, do you want a stepmother?” Ge Liutao was anxious.

This thought had lingered in her heart for a long time now. Chiang Songhai never allowed her to voice it, but she couldn’t understand why it couldn’t be mentioned?

Isn’t this beneficial for everyone?

Ah Liu is so young, a man in his thirties, not yet forty. He can’t be single for life, eventually he’ll find someone, and wouldn’t that give Chiang Xiao a stepmother?

It’s often said that stepmothers aren’t good, and if she treats Chiang Xiao poorly, always bullying her, what then?

She was only thinking of Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Songhai tugged at her hand, ”Enough, don’t say anymore!”

”Grandpa, do you think this too?” Chiang Xiao felt weary, looking at Chiang Songhai with disappointment in her eyes.

Chiang Songhai’s heart trembled seeing her expression.

”No, Little, don’t mind your grandma, she’s just daydreaming, it doesn’t count.”

Chiang Xiao gritted her teeth and said, ”Why should it count? I would rather have a stepmother, no matter how bad she treats me, as long as it’s not Chiang Qingzhu, and as long as it’s someone my dad truly likes, that’s fine!”

”Little?” Ge Liutao stared at her dumbfounded.

What was she saying?

Chiang Xiao looked at her and said, ”Grandma, do you think my dad is a scrap collector?”

”...Scrap... collector?”
