Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2969 - 2905: Another Matchmaking Arrangement

Whenever he tried to give it back, she never accepted and just told him to keep it on him for when he might need it.

Hearing Wang Lili praise Jiang Xiao like that, he felt that Wang Lili was very clear-headed and fair in her assessment.

It wasn’t just random flattery because he and Jiang Xiao were family; you could tell she was speaking sincerely.

This improved his impression of this girl even more.

At this moment, Aunt Meng emerged carrying a plate of meat. She glanced around and, noticing that Meng Sheng and Wang Lili were absent, didn’t think much of it.

"Our teeth aren’t that great inside; this meat is for you young people to eat. Chief Meng asked me to bring it out."

She spoke as she bent down to place the plate of meat on the table, but accidentally tripped over a chair leg and almost fell onto the table.

Xie Landi, who was sitting nearby, quickly stood up and caught her deftly.

"Aunt, be careful."

"Oh, oh, I’m really too careless."

Aunt Meng steadied herself, and Xie Landi had already taken the plate of meat from her hands and placed it on the table. She then handed Aunt Meng a napkin, "Aunt, wipe your hands."

She pointed to some sauce that had splattered onto Aunt Meng’s hand.

Aunt Meng accepted it and smiled at Xie Landi.

"I’ll go wash my hands. Girl, you eat, you eat."

She turned around with a little yelp.

Jiang Xiao looked over, "Aunt, are you alright?"

"I’m alright, I’m alright," Aunt Meng quickly gave her a look, then said to Xie Landi: "Girl, I might have stubbed my toe earlier. It’s a bit painful to walk now. Could you help me find a bottle of liniment?"

"Sure, I’ll help you. Be careful."

Xie Landi quickly helped Aunt Meng inside.

It wasn’t that she suddenly became clever; it was more that Xie Landi was naturally closer to people like Aunt Meng, who seemed honest and good-natured and just focused on work, like her mother.

To her, others seemed like people from a different world, and she unconsciously kept her distance from them.

Helping Aunt Meng walk away, she felt somewhat relaxed but also a little wistful, wondering if Wei Yixi noticed her?

Xie Landi wanted to glance at Wei Yixi but didn’t dare.

Jiang Xiao watched their departing backs and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

What is Aunt Meng up to?

Wasn’t she interested in Wang Lili?

Now she seems interested in Xie Landi?

Even though Xie Landi had changed a bit, Jiang Xiao thought she wasn’t suited for Meng Sheng.

Meng Sheng, able to connect with varied circles, clearly wasn’t a particularly honest person. He had foresight and some means, and Xie Landi might not keep up with his pace.

But it’s not really her concern, and it might never happen, so she said nothing more.

"Seems like there’s a matchmaking event here?" Wei Yixi chuckled quietly.

His sharp eyes had caught on immediately.

Jiang Xiao shook her head, "I don’t know either."

Really doesn’t know?

Wei Yixi could tell this girl clearly knew everything.

Her eyes were too bright.

This gathering, everyone enjoyed themselves.

After the meal, the others gradually left, while Wei Yixi stayed behind.

Old Meng and Meng Chaojun kept him company for a while, but Old Meng felt a bit tipsy and went to sleep, leaving Meng Chaojun thinking it might be easier for the young people to talk among themselves, so he also went upstairs to his room.
