Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2521 - 2457: Judging People’s Character

Indeed, the problem concerning Jiang Yingqiong lies in the fact that two decades have passed, and throughout those twenty years, she has consistently viewed Lu Shuangshuang as her sister-in-law.

In the course of these years, Lu Shuangshuang has truly offered her considerable solace. The pair of women frequently recalled memories of Jiang Liu together, cherishing his remembrance.

After all, Jiang Yingqiong avoided mentioning Jiang Liu in Old Master Jiang's presence, since bringing him up always left the elder unwell.

Thus, within Jiang Yingqiong’s mind, Lu Shuangshuang retains a substantial place.

He comprehends this fully.

Yet, humans tend to be self-centered, and it's essential to differentiate between main priorities and lesser ones, isn't it?

"You need to realize that your close bond with Lu Shuangshuang over the years stems mainly from treating her as Xiao Sixth’s fiancée, or even his spouse. However, she no longer possesses that role. Your focus should remain on Xiao Sixth. Without him connecting you two, you lack many common grounds, and your talks aren't as free-flowing as with your other intimate companions. Your relationship isn't merely an ordinary companionship."

Li Hanzhong was already preparing the tea.

The aroma from the tea appeared to gently ease the exhaustion from his daily labors.

He lifted a cup and set it before Jiang Yingqiong, inviting her to partake, while he himself sipped from his cup.

"Therefore, at present, Xiao Sixth ought to be your top priority, and Little should rank higher than Lu Shuangshuang. Consider the desires of the father and daughter, rather than constantly fretting over Lu Shuangshuang’s views."

With the tea sliding into his mouth, its deep, invigorating taste elicited a contented sigh from him.

Suddenly, a thought struck Li Hanzhong.

The tea from Chiang Xiao boasts such superior quality—might it qualify as an exclusive supply?

Still, as an exclusive item, it wouldn't appear in regular markets.

Perhaps he could seek a chance to discuss with Little whether this tea variety could be offered in tea stores?

Observing his pleased look as he relished the tea, Jiang Yingqiong couldn't resist commenting, "At times, I can't help but think that merely a tin of tea from Little has you captivated. It seems you're perpetually anxious about me upsetting her."

Li Hanzhong chuckled heartily.

"Your habit of assessing folks that way has been directed solely at me." With a grin toward her, he added, "Wait and see—Little’s prospects could rival the support Lu Shuangshuang receives from the Lu Family. She's just starting out young, but in a few years, observe the difference."

In any case, he was confident in his judgment.

Chiang Xiao’s road ahead remains vast and promising.

On the other hand, Lu Shuangshuang’s opportunities may not expand much more.

Following her bath, Chiang Xiao dozed briefly, emerging refreshed and serene, before exiting the Space.

The moment she stepped from the room, the scent of cooking wafted toward her.

Her belly rumbled in response, prompting her to rush straight to the dining area.

Meng Xinian had freshly dished out the rice, and spotting her, he beamed, "You arrived right on time." Drawing her to the table, he urged, "Try out my culinary handiwork. Though I haven't managed full lessons from Grandma Yang yet, I phoned her for the instructions."

Grandma Yang was Yang Zhiqi’s mother.

"You went as far as to phone Grandma Yang?" Chiang Xiao showed mild surprise.

Glancing at the trio of dishes laid out, one appeared rather scorched, another was ambiguous—perhaps dried veggies or a soup—and the last one seemed reasonably presentable.

"Well, don't go by the looks—it may not appear appealing, but I've sampled it, and the taste is actually pretty solid. I'd call it a win."

Noticing her face, Meng Xinian instantly sensed her internal critique and hastily defended his efforts.

Chiang Xiao erupted into giggles.
