Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 1169: Chapter 1170: Special Visitor

If she left him behind and entered the mountains alone, Tyrant Meng would probably settle scores with her for a long time.

”Teacher Kuang has arrived, Officer Wei just took him to the cemetery area,” said Zhao Xin, letting her through the blockade.

”Brother Kuang is here too?”

”Yes, heard they dug up some things the day before yesterday, and the expert team invited a few more people over. Teacher Kuang and their party of six people came.”

”At the cemetery?”

Chiang Xiao frowned slightly, she really didn’t want to enter the ancient tomb.

”Sister-in-law, no way? You’re not about to tell me you’re scared, are you?” Zhao Xin couldn’t help but laugh when he saw her expression.

In his eyes, Chiang Xiao was a woman of great courage, not afraid of anything; surely, she wouldn’t be afraid of ancient tombs?

”A little scared, yes. But with Brother Kuang and the others here, and so many people, I won’t be scared,” Chiang Xiao admitted frankly, ”Can I go over? If so, I’ll just go find them myself.”

”You can, then we won’t accompany you over.”

Dai Gang made a wry face and said, ”For the family of Officer Wei, we can make an exception.”

Chiang Xiao ignored his teasing, waved her hand, and walked towards the ancient tomb.

Actually, it wasn’t too far from the blockade, just a hundred meters or so.

Chiang Xiao went looking for Meng Xinian but didn’t expect that there would be visitors at home at this time.

And the visitor was someone she hadn’t expected, not the prepared-for Deng Qingjiang, but his wife, Chen Kaijin.

Chen Kaijin had hired a car directly, and the car drove into Siyang Village.

In the past, this would have caused a sensation.

The homes in Siyang Village didn’t have relatives who could drive a car back for a visit.

But recently, it was different. The excavation of the ancient tomb brought many outsiders who drove cars, so the villagers of Siyang Village had grown somewhat numb to seeing cars.

Especially since the people in the car asked for directions to Chiang Songhai’s home.

The villagers all knew that the Chiang family had prospered, and knew that Chiang Xiao was engaged to a military officer, so they didn’t find it strange that someone came looking for Chiang Songhai’s family in a car.

Chen Kaijin was somewhat puzzled.

She thought that these poor rural villagers would swarm around the car, especially the children. Shouldn’t they find it novel?

She had already braced herself to be surrounded by curious villagers to the point that it would be difficult to get out of the car.

But unexpectedly, it wasn’t until she reached the Chiang family’s doorstep that four or five villagers and children gathered around, which really made her feel a bit let down.

”Sis, this place really looks poor!” Chen Kaijin was accompanied by her sister Chen Sue, who looked much younger and prettier than her sister. However, the two sisters still looked somewhat alike.

”Siyang Village has always been poor, but it seems it’s going to develop now, didn’t you see they’re building roads outside the village?” Chen Kaijin said, ”They say you get rich by building roads first; with the road built, opportunities will start to come.”

Chen Sue was not convinced, thinking that if opportunities really were going to improve, why wouldn’t her brother-in-law even want to come back?

However, someone in front of them had already started asking questions.

”Older sister, who are you looking for?”

The one who asked was Xiang Mingying, who lived nearby. She was holding a bowl, feeding a child about three years old.

When Chiang Xiao had first arrived, Xiang Mingying was pregnant, and now the child was nearly three years old.

Chen Sue almost spat out blood.

”Who are you calling ’older sister’? Do I look that old?” There goes the country bumpkin, calling every young woman they see ’older sister’!
