Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 783: Chapter 784: Much More Clever Than Her

But surprisingly, after all this time, Chiang Baoguo still hadn’t considered divorcing Song Xiyun. Now, Song Xiyun had even come to the county town.

”I’ve wronged you,” Chiang Baoguo whispered, ”She heard something about a hooliganism charge from who knows where. If that crazy woman really gets desperate, she might actually go through with suing me. What would you do then? So, I figured I’d better placate her first.”

As soon as Chiang Xiao appeared, Chiang Songhai, who was standing on the second-floor terrace looking out, saw her.

He breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned around to shout inside.

”Ah Tao, you can start cooking now; I’ve seen Little.”

Ge Liutao responded from inside.

Just as Chiang Xiao was about to knock, the door opened just as her hand was raised, and she immediately understood that her grandfather must have been waiting for her on the terrace this whole time.

”Little, why did you come back so late today?”

Chiang Xiao entered, changed into indoor slippers, set down her school bag, went to wash her hands in the bathroom, and said to them, ”I ran into someone I know, Grandpa, guess who I met?”

”Someone I know too?”

”Yeah, you couldn’t be more familiar with them.”

Chiang Songhai thought for a moment and said, ”Did you run into Baoguo?”

”That’s half right, and half wrong.” Chiang Xiao, thinking of the ”spectacular” drama that might be unfolding at the hospital at that moment, couldn’t help but laugh.

”What does that mean?” Ge Liutao came out too, still holding a spatula in her hand.

”I ran into Song Xiyun and Chiang Caijiao first, and only afterward did I run into Chiang Baoguo,” Chiang Xiao explained.

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao didn’t think much of it and even felt a bit surprised.

”Xiyun brought Caijiao to the county town? Dongdong didn’t come?”

Er. Chiang Xiao had to admire her grandparents, who still spoke about them as if they were their own family; she didn’t even want to call her uncle and aunt anymore.

”Chiang Lidong didn’t come.”

”Then is Baoguo’s factory close to our place?” Chiang Songhai asked.

”I don’t know,” Chiang Xiao shrugged and said, ”He was with Ding Meifen, holding a one-year-old child, going to see a doctor at the hospital, and then he ran right into Song Xiyun.”

”What?”

”That woman?”

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were instantly stunned.

”Yes.”

”Why is Baoguo still with that woman?” Ge Liutao and Chiang Songhai exchanged glances, both feeling that this matter would be tough to settle.

”Where are they now?”

”I just left,” said Chiang Xiao, choosing to share this with her grandparents in case they unexpectedly ran into Chiang Baoguo too. She had a feeling that this time, Song Xiyun wouldn’t leave the county town so easily. Even the most oblivious woman wouldn’t want to get too far from Chiang Baoguo at such times, when her sense of security was at its weakest.

”Then, what do we do? They won’t start fighting, will they? If they really do start fighting, what will Caijiao do? It’s a sin; there are children involved.” Ge Liutao, as a woman, genuinely felt sympathy for Song Xiyun.

She even thought that Chiang Xiao could bring Chiang Caijiao over first, to spare the child from being scared of watching her parents fight too fiercely.

Chiang Xiao revealed a thin smile.

”Don’t worry, Grandma, I actually think that with Chiang Caijiao there, they probably won’t fight too fiercely,” she said.

That little girl was much sharper than she had been in her previous life.

”Sigh, what a mess, Baoguo is really confused,” Ge Liutao lamented.

”Never mind them. Grandma, is the food ready? I’m so hungry,” Chiang Xiao redirected the conversation.

Afterward, she also put the matter out of her mind.

However, a few days later, she unexpectedly saw Chiang Caijiao at the school entrance.
