Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 1550 - 1552: It’s not that I can’t recognize
Chapter 1550: Chapter 1552: It’s not that I can’t recognize
No matter if it’s just secretly asking about their circumstances, knowing that they’re alive, that they can still get by—only then can she be at ease and live her days, treating her illness as well.
How could she possibly be so heartless, ignoring them completely?
Even as her parents, they couldn’t help but feel some resentment toward her, couldn’t understand her behavior no matter how hard they tried—let alone Chiang Xiao, who already had no memories of her at all?
And how could she stay in someone else’s home like that? How could she get entangled with a married man?
She even became a laughingstock in the Capital City for ten years.
If Chiang Xiao had to acknowledge her, then what would happen to Chiang Xiao?
She had borne the reputation of an unknown father and a missing mother for so many years, only to finally silence the whispers through her own efforts. Must she now carry the label of having a fox-spirit for a birth mother?
How would that be fair to Chiang Xiao?
For a moment, these questions weighed like a heavy mountain on the hearts of Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao. freewёbnoνel.com
Their expressions genuinely did not look good.
"Grandpa, Grandma, have a cup of tea." Meng Xinian placed two cups of tea in front of them.
He had already learned the secret of these teas made by Chiang Xiao, so he knew that as long as they drank two cups of this tea at such moments, their health would certainly remain fine.
In Meng Xinian’s view, the matter concerning Chiang Qingzhu was, in essence, a consequence that Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao should bear.
Parents are to blame for failing to teach their children properly.
It was their indulgence that had brought Chiang Qingzhu up to become this way.
Of course, given his position, he couldn’t say something like that outright.
He simply cared deeply for his little girl, so he thought it was better to have more people share the burden of these matters.
Chiang Qingzhu was coming tomorrow, and if Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao didn’t know the truth and treated Chiang Qingzhu warmly as if nothing had happened, insisting Chiang Xiao recognize her—wouldn’t that hurt Chiang Xiao?
He couldn’t let that scenario unfold.
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao subconsciously heeded his suggestion, picked up their teacups, and drank the tea.
The refreshing scent of the tea passed through their throats, subtly reinvigorating their spirits.
Meng Xinian refilled their cups again, saying, "Have another cup."
"Alright, alright."
The two elders followed his advice again and drank the tea.
Wang Yi watched from the side, marveling at how well Meng Xinian handled the situation. He could also tell that Meng Xinian was unmistakably protecting Chiang Xiao.
After drinking two cups of tea, the faces of the two elders had somewhat improved.
Chiang Xiao also let out a breath of relief, as Meng Xinian had already brought a cup of tea directly to her lips. Without thinking much, she drank the tea from his hand.
"Grandpa, Grandma."
Chiang Xiao sighed and said, "I’ve actually thought about this matter. Honestly, it’s not that I absolutely can’t acknowledge her."
The eyes of Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao lit up, and their spirits were revived.
The two gazed at her expectantly, awaiting her next words.
This decision of Chiang Xiao’s was, in fact, carefully deliberated.
Of course, from her own perspective, she really didn’t want this birth mother. But, after all, that was her grandparents’ daughter. In the end, aside from people like Chiang Qingzhu, what parent in the world could easily abandon their child?
No matter how disgraceful Chiang Qingzhu had once been, as long as there was a chance, Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao would surely still feel pity for her.
Thus, Chiang Xiao made this decision entirely for the sake of her grandparents.
"This is what I’m thinking—her staying in the Kong Family’s household is certainly inappropriate. Grandpa, Grandma, would you agree with this point?"
