Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2951: Chapter 2887: Changing So Fast

”Alright, when I get back I’ll dig through some things and see if there’s anything suitable for her,” Madam Cui spoke softly.

On the way back, Meng Xinian couldn’t help but ask Jiang Xiao.

”Little, did I do something wrong just now? Did I upset Madam Cui of the Commander Cui?”

When Meng Chaojun heard this, he thought, really? Did they actually get angry?

”What’s going on?”

He felt it was fine.

Jiang Xiao paused.

Grinding her teeth.

”Madam Cui of the Commander Cui is not angry, I’m the one who’s angry!” She snorted and turned her head to ask Meng Chaojun, ”Dad, how did your talk with Commander Cui go?”

Meng Chaojun coughed lightly and said, ”I don’t know, Commander Cui asked me to wait at home for news. But he did ask me a lot of questions, I feel there’s still a bit of possibility.”

”That’s good, congratulations.”

”Still need to thank you. By the way, Little, is tomorrow’s dinner at home? Your grandfather said to check who we should invite. Let’s tally up the numbers since we need to borrow another set of tables and chairs.”

Meng Xinian furrowed his brows, ”For what? Who are we inviting?”

He didn’t know about this.

Jiang Xiao only realized now that he really slept so deeply yesterday, with so many conversations happening in the ward, he didn’t hear a single word.

”Grandpa says to welcome you back and shake off the dust, inviting a few friends over for a meal and a gathering.”

”There’s no need for that, what’s the point of welcoming me back and shaking off the dust?” Meng Xinian immediately vetoed it.

Meng Chaojun’s expression was a bit stiff.

Jiang Xiao pursed her lips and said, ”And also to celebrate me being discharged, Grandpa says it’s to sweep away the bad luck.”

”Then who should we invite? We should invite Teacher Liu and Teacher’s Wife, right? Bring in Director Jin, Chen Yin, Wang Yi, and should we invite Wang Yi’s little cousin?”

Meng Chaojun was dumbfounded.

The change in attitude was way too fast?

On the way back, Meng Xinian had already finalized the guest list.

When they reached the Meng Family, Old Meng heard the car sound and quickly came out to greet them, ”Xinian, Xinian.” He still hadn’t got a chance to talk to his eldest grandson.

”Old man, your voice is pretty loud.”

Meng Xinian got out of the car and walked towards him.

Seeing him, although slightly thinner, his mental state and everything else seemed fine, Old Meng was truly relieved.

”You’ve worked hard, come in. Did you fill up at Commander Cui’s place? There’s chicken soup saved for you at home, one bowl each for you and Little, each with a big chicken leg.”

Jiang Xiao’s mouth twitched.

After Tyrant Meng returned, saying she had gained some weight, now they want her to drink that oily chicken soup and eat a big chicken leg?

When Aunt Meng brought out the chicken soup, Old Meng indeed urged them to drink it.

Jiang Xiao glanced at Meng Xinian, ”I’m going upstairs to wash my face, you guys eat first, Brother Xinian, you can bring it up for me after you’re done.”

”Yes, yes, Little just got out of the hospital, must be tired, freshen up and rest upstairs first.”

Old Meng thought Jiang Xiao was leaving them Room to talk, and couldn’t help but feel warm inside.

Jiang Xiao nodded and ran upstairs, ”Thump, thump, thump.”

”Be careful!”

Meng Xinian watched her move, his temple throbbing.

With injuries still on her knee, even with the Pain-Relief Talisman Diagram stopping the pain, the injury was real, and he worried she might trip and hurt herself again.

Seeing his normally cool and detached eldest grandson now watching Jiang Xiao like a mother hen, Old Meng felt both amused and a little embarrassed.

”Alright, Little is such a smart kid, she’ll be careful. You hurry up and drink the chicken soup,” he said.

Meng Chaojun indeed hadn’t eaten enough at Commander Cui’s place.
