Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2212: Chapter 2148: Did Something Big Happen or Not

Chiang Xiao smiled, "I’m truly not upset."

On the contrary, she felt this indicated that, deep down, they still felt a bit guilty towards Ah Liu, which was better than having no feelings at all, right?

"Don’t worry about things here; in the next few days, I’ll find someone to come help with cooking and cleaning. Grandpa, Grandma, when do you plan to go back?"

"Let’s go back tomorrow. There are so many flowers at home, and I can’t stop thinking about them. Didn’t you plan to use them?"

Chiang Xiao nodded and said, "By the way, Grandpa, when Little Uncle is born in the future, expenses will only increase. Now you don’t want to take money, so how about this: in City M, see if you can find any land suitable for growing more flowers. I’ll open a tea pastry workshop, and in the future, the demand for pastries and flower tea will increase. We can cooperate—you grow the flowers, and I’ll pay you, how about that?"

"Sure, sure, that sounds good. I’ll start looking as soon as I get back."

Chiang Songhai suddenly brightened up.

He was genuinely happy.

He felt in good health now, with plenty of energy and strength. If he wasn’t allowed to do anything, he’d be bored and restless, not to mention feeling uncertain and empty inside.

In the future, he’d still have a wife and children to support. How could he manage without earning money and just rely on Chiang Xiao?

He would feel too guilty towards Chiang Xiao.

Besides, their good health was all thanks to Chiang Xiao, wasn’t it?

So, when he heard there was work he could do and money to earn, Chiang Songhai felt at ease all at once.

He brushed aside the matters involving Chen Zhu and Kuang Kanzhi.

Life had to go on, and it seemed promising—how wonderful.

Feeling revitalized, Chiang Songhai talked much more than usual on the way home, chatting with Chiang Xiao almost the whole way.

Beside him, Ge Liutao, holding her belly, couldn’t join the conversation, but hearing their talk and thinking about possibly having a son, she couldn’t help but feel secretly happy.

In the evening, when talking to Ah Liu about Chiang Songhai and his wife returning to City M, Ah Liu nodded and wished them a safe journey.

The next day, Chiang Xiao took them to the train station early in the morning.

"Be careful on the road, Grandpa, and take good care of Grandma."

Seeing them leave, Chiang Xiao felt a slight reluctance in her heart.

Mainly, she felt that this farewell was different from the past; before, she and her grandparents were truly a family, relying on each other for survival.

But now, despite not wanting it, things had somewhat changed.

She had a father now, and her grandparents would have their child.

Her grandparents might feel uncomfortable living with Ah Liu, and Ah Liu might not be completely indifferent to living with them.

So things between them had inevitably become a bit different.

However, when Chiang Xiao thought it over, she realized that this might not necessarily be a bad thing.

"I will, Little, you still have school, so you should go." Chiang Songhai waved at her.

As the train slowly left the platform, Chiang Xiao exhaled, and after a puff of white mist, the morning sun shone brightly.

She rubbed her hands together and turned to leave the platform.

Upon arriving at school, just as she stepped into the classroom, she heard Jin Lei calling her loudly.

"Chiang Xiao! Come over quickly!"

Seeing him with the look of someone about to share big news, Chiang Xiao smiled and walked over, but Jin Lei immediately pulled her out of the classroom and to a corner of the sports field.

"Did something big happen yesterday afternoon?" Jin Lei asked urgently.

"What’s considered a big deal? It’s not really a big deal."

Chiang Xiao knew that Director Jin wouldn’t gossip, but it was possible Jin Lei had been told a few things to be careful about, and that he wasn’t able to get the full story from him, so naturally, he’d come to ask her.
