Chapter 137: Want to Buy a Rabbit?

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Want to Buy a Rabbit?

Chiang Xiao probably knew what was going on, but after all, that kind of thing was disgraceful, and Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao had told her to cover her ears and not to listen or ask questions, so she pretended to know nothing.

Later, it seemed that the matter had been suppressed, but Song Xiyun’s temperament had changed a bit after the provocation and had become even more annoying. However, Chiang Baoguo didn’t actually have any trouble caused by it and even later on, he was said to have been promoted several times, transferred to the county’s main factory to work as an accountant.

Once Chiang Xiao left with Deng Qingjiang, she never heard any news about them again.

First, Deng Qingjiang rarely mentioned the people from Old Chiang’s family, and second, she had no interest in knowing about them.

When Director Ding and this woman showed up at Old Chiang’s door, Chiang Xiao never thought about getting involved in the matter, and she also didn’t understand why in this lifetime this father and daughter appeared so much earlier and even took the initiative to visit them.

"Meifen, look at what you’re saying. You’ve already called me ’Brother Baoguo,’ which makes you my sister. It’s only right for a brother to do things for his sister."

Upon hearing Chiang Baoguo’s words, Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but shudder.

All this brother and sister talk—if she remembered correctly, Director Ding had also called him "Brother Baoguo" when he had visited, and now his daughter was calling Chiang Baoguo her brother, which really made for a confusing set of relations.

However, she had an unfavorable impression of this father and daughter, so it seemed quite normal for them to forge such chaotic relationships.

"Brother Baoguo, you’re so kind. No wonder my dad told me that you’re obviously a righteous and good person."

Pfft.

Another sentence that nearly gave Chiang Xiao goosebumps.

Please, stop insulting the word ’righteous,’ okay?!

Chiang Xiao lowered her head and stopped looking at them. In fact, with such a distance, she logically shouldn’t have been able to hear their conversation clearly—Chiang Songhai certainly hadn’t heard it. But Chiang Xiao’s hearing was very good now, and she heard them loud and clear.

Seeing that they were approaching this way and estimating that they would reach them in a few more steps, Chiang Xiao gently tugged at her grandfather’s sleeve and said in a hushed voice, "Grandfather, I see my big uncle."

Chiang Songhai was startled for a moment, "Baoguo? Where?"

Chiang Xiao nodded her chin in the direction.

Chiang Songhai looked up and indeed saw Chiang Baoguo, dressed in new clothes. And that girl, Director Ding’s daughter. But, weren’t they walking a bit too close to each other?

The fair was crowded, and Chiang Baoguo’s arm was pressed close to the woman’s. He was also slightly bending down to listen to her speak. From this angle, their faces were also rather close.

Chiang Songhai felt there was something odd about it.

He was just about to call out to Chiang Baoguo when Chiang Xiao quickly stopped him.

"Grandfather, don’t call out to him. What if he’s in the middle of something important?"

Chiang Xiao herself wanted to keep her distance from Chiang Baoguo, so why would she want to encounter him at a time like this?

Chiang Songhai thought about Director Ding’s status and nodded.

The grandfather and granddaughter both lowered their heads and tried their best to diminish their presence, quietly waiting for the two to walk past in front of them. But contrary to their wishes, and as if fate enjoyed playing jokes on Chiang Xiao, Ding Meifen suddenly saw the wild rabbit in their basket and shouted out in surprise.

"Brother Baoguo, look, a wild rabbit!"

Chiang Xiao was at once covered in a rush of exasperation.

Ding Meifen had already walked briskly over without even looking at them, and asked outright, "Hey, how much are you selling this wild rabbit for?"

Chiang Baoguo followed her over and upon seeing the two crouched behind the stall, his eyes widened in shock as if he had seen a ghost and he cried out, "Second Uncle? Chiang Xiao?"

Well, it looked like they couldn’t avoid it after all.

If they couldn’t avoid it, then they might as well do what they needed to do.

Ding Meifen wanted to buy the rabbit, right? Then they would simply sell the rabbit.
