Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 285: Chapter 285 It’s Her It’s Her It’s Definitely Her

He felt that with so many people around, it wasn’t a good idea to blurt out about the Wild Ganoderma.

A wild boar had already scared him enough.

It was better to be cautious.

Chiang Xiao had told her grandfather about it because she knew she couldn’t hide that scent from him.

Before planting the Wild Ginseng, when she used the Small Ganoderma to boil water, it hardly had any smell, so naturally, she hadn’t mentioned it. But after she started using the Wild Ginseng, the Wild Ganoderma she harvested had this faint scent and even the medicinal effect had improved.

Meng Xinian thought about Chiang Xiao going up the mountain and considered what Zhao Xin had said about the big conflict that happened yesterday, and his face grew dark.

If Chiang Songhai really was the lifesaver his grandfather had spoken of, then it wasn’t just Meng Donghai whose life he had saved back then, but several others who now held high positions.

If they were to learn that the person who had saved their lives was now living in such a sorry state, he didn’t know where they would put their old faces.

Meng Xinian set down his cup, sat up straight, and wore a serious expression. Seeing him like this, Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao couldn’t help but also sit up straighter.

”Grandfather, there’s something I need to ask you. Did you once provide a battalion with homemade medicine and a jar of the very precious Shuangzhen Medicinal Wine?”

Ge Liutao’s eyes widened as she looked at her husband.

Chiang Xiao’s pupils constricted slightly, and she quickly realized what was happening. Shuangzhen Medicinal Wine—she knew her grandfather had once made a jar, and even Doctor Huang had mentioned it recently.

That jar of Shuangzhen Medicinal Wine Chiang Songhai had made was very famous for its miraculous medicinal effects, but the ingredients for brewing it were extremely rare and sought after, making it hard to produce a second jar.

Thus, when Meng Xinian brought up Shuangzhen Medicinal Wine and delivering medicine, Chiang Xiao immediately understood.

She was stupefied and shuddered, momentarily losing her balance and plopping down onto the floor with a thud.

”Is it worth that reaction?” Meng Xinian, suppressing a laugh, walked over to help her up and pressed her back into her chair before pulling up another chair to sit next to her.

Chiang Xiao hadn’t come back to her senses yet.

Her mind was in turmoil.

Chiang Songhai had already decided not to mention this matter, but who knew that Meng Xinian would come and ask directly. Since he wasn’t good at lying, he could only nod uneasily in response to the expectant look, saying hesitantly, ”Yes, that’s right.”

Yes, he was that person.

Meng Xinian completely relaxed, a smile spreading across his lips, ”Then there’s no mistake, Grandfather. The fellow villager who saved my grandfather all those years ago was indeed you. And the one I am engaged to is...” He turned to Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao almost jumped up again.

It was one thing to think about it, but quite another to hear him say it out loud, confirming the matter.

Good Lord, was she really playing a joke on her?

She’d actually been promised in marriage? And to this man?

Where had all these people been in her previous life!

Her emotions were incredibly mixed. She bit her lip and looked at Chiang Songhai, ”Grandfather, how come you never told me about this?”

Chiang Songhai hesitated, then said, ”Little, at that time you weren’t even born yet. I didn’t take the matter seriously either. Besides, after so many years, no one has...”

He didn’t feel comfortable completing his sentence in front of Meng Xinian.

In truth, when their family was barely making ends meet, he also occasionally thought that if that Supervisor Guard truly remembered their agreement and sent someone, Little wouldn’t have to suffer alongside them...

But after so many years, no one had come to find them.
