Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2780: Chapter 2716: A Bit of a Clue

She needed to go see for herself now, to verify whether this Ah Hong was actually the Chun Hong that Gao Shan mentioned!

If it was Chun Hong, perhaps she knew what happened at the Hongfeng Welfare Institute back then!

Luo Yongsheng immediately grabbed his keys and followed her out.

The person tailing them led the way and soon brought them to an old house.

The car stopped in an alley not far from the old house.

”Ah Hong lives here?”

This place really didn’t seem very conspicuous, just quite ordinary.

Moreover, it was a bit of a distance from the city center.

However, transportation was still convenient because there was a minibus route that came to this place, and the bus stop was just a short walk away.

Their car was rather conspicuous, so they parked it in this alley to hide it.

”Yes, she lives here. Deng Qingjiang often drives over to pick her up.”

”Does she live here alone?”

”No, there’s a mute woman here too.”

Hearing him say there was a mute woman here, Jiang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat.

Gao Shan had said that Red Bean didn’t talk much, was very introverted, and often kept to herself.

So, could this mute woman be Red Bean?

”That mute woman has come out.” The man pointed over.

Jiang Xiao immediately looked in that direction.

Her heart had jumped to her throat.

With Shi Xiaoching’s portrait and Gao Shan’s description, she felt that if she saw Shi Xiaoching now, she would definitely recognize her.

So, she was somewhat expectant, thinking she’d see a middle-aged Shi Xiaoching if she just looked.

However, when she saw the woman, she was disappointed.

Because that woman looked at most thirty, not older than thirty, and her face was a bit square, her build rather stocky, clearly not Shi Xiaoching.

”Is it this one?”

”Yes. She seems to be helping Ah Hong with cooking, laundry, and cleaning.”

So that’s how it is, not Shi Xiaoching.

Jiang Xiao’s disappointment weighed heavily in her heart, making her expression slightly darken.

This Ah Hong seemed to enjoy herself, even hiring someone to cook and do laundry for her.

It was rare for someone to do that these days.

”Ah Hong lives here alone, do the neighbors not know anything about her background? Did you ever ask?”

”We did send someone to ask. But the people said Ah Hong is the mute woman’s relative, a rich relative. They said having such a relative is good. Though the mute woman is busier, Ah Hong gives her money, and they think it has helped the mute woman escape misery. She used to have no income and lived a hard life, but now she has new clothes to wear.”

The man continued, ”However, they all said Ah Hong didn’t like socializing or talking to people, seemed too lofty, so they didn’t want to talk to her, and nobody knows anything else.”

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao was almost certain that this Ah Hong was Chun Hong.

Because of the connection with the painting by Qingshuang and Deng Qingjiang.

But why would Chun Hong give Deng Qingjiang such a painting?

Why does Chun Hong have a painting Qingshuang made years ago?

Is Shi Xiaoching still alive, is she beside this Ah Hong?

And what role does Deng Qingjiang play in this?

These were the burning questions Jiang Xiao was eager to find answers to.
