Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 1788 - 1724: I Want to Ask

"Xiao, Xiao Chiang, this potion will be effective, right?" Jiang Yingqiong looked at Chiang Xiao, on one hand unable to distrust her face, but on the other very worried about the old man. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

After asking this question, she felt it was a bit too much to ask, who can guarantee a hundred percent?

However, what she didn’t expect was that as soon as she finished speaking, Chiang Xiao nodded immediately and said confidently, "It will be effective."

She spoke with such certainty, such confidence, her tone strong.

Jiang Yingqiong was momentarily stunned.

She saw Chiang Xiao slightly lower her head, and she couldn’t help but follow her gaze, seeing the old master still tightly clutching Chiang Xiao’s clothes, creasing them into a bundle.

"Chiang Xiao, don’t be mad, Grandfather is just afraid you’ll leave." Jiang Yingqiong felt a bit embarrassed.

The old master had been proud all his life, serious all his life, and had never behaved like this.

He seldom laughed, always serious even when with his family, so much so that she had always feared his scolding since childhood.

The old master adored Xiao Sixth the most, but even when speaking to him, his tone remained serious, rarely ever speaking gently or jokingly.

Therefore, almost no one in the Jiang Family had been close to the old master.

The old master also didn’t have those affectionate gestures like touching heads or holding hands with the younger generation; it never happened.

But now he was clutching Chiang Xiao’s clothes so tightly.

Jiang Yingqiong couldn’t help but keep looking at Chiang Xiao’s face, and the more she looked, the more she felt like crying.

Now she certainly saw the difference between Chiang Xiao and Xiao Sixth.

Being a girl, Chiang Xiao was naturally more delicate than Xiao Sixth, but they still looked so alike.

Chiang Xiao pressed her lips together and didn’t speak.

Nor did she try to pull Old Master Jiang’s hand away.

"Xiao Sixth," after a while, Old Master Jiang indeed seemed to recover a bit, with some color returning to his face and his eyes appearing clearer, as if he could focus again. He looked at Chiang Xiao, his lips trembling, "You, you’re a girl..."

His tone was indescribable, disappointment, or shock.

Chiang Xiao nodded, "Yes, I’m called Chiang Xiao, Chiang as in ginger, I’m seventeen years old this year."

Two lines of turbid tears once again rolled down Old Master Jiang’s cheeks.

"You’re not Xiao Sixth, not Xiao Sixth."

Jiang Yingqiong also started to cry, "Grandfather, she’s not Xiao Sixth."

Chen Baoshen saw that Old Master Jiang was indeed much better, so he looked at Li Hanzhong, gesturing with his fingers whether they should leave, to which Li Hanzhong gently shook his head.

They absolutely trusted Chen Baoshen, especially since he was familiar with Chiang Xiao and knew quite a bit about the Jiang family’s affairs, so they naturally didn’t mind him staying here.

Chen Baoshen had no choice but to continue standing aside.

Old Master Jiang, with tears flowing, said, "It seems that I won’t be able to see Xiao Sixth again before I enter the coffin, nor see him return to the Jiang Family."

"I want to ask," Chiang Xiao suddenly inquired, "the name of Sixth Young Master Jiang."

"Shiheng, his name is Jiang Shiheng." Li Hanzhong saw that both the old master and Jiang Yingqiong were crying uncontrollably, so he answered for them.

Indeed, the name Chu Liang had noted in his book.

"Then," Chiang Xiao asked again, "what about Han Chu? Have you heard this name?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the old master and Jiang Yingqiong both shuddered and suddenly looked at her.

"That’s Xiao Sixth’s courtesy name! Han Chu is Xiao Sixth! But it was only at the age of fourteen that he took this courtesy name, known only to family and not yet spread outside. How do you know this?"
