Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 3154 - 3090: Trouble Brewing in the Backyard

She never thought Cui Zhenyan had such a matter.

Meng Xinian continued, "Speaking of it, Cui Zhenyan, having lived for thirty or forty years, is somewhat just and upright like Commander Cui, never having done anything to betray someone. In both public and private affairs, he has never done anything shady. This is the only matter he wants to keep hidden yet doesn’t know how to deal with it."

Jiang Xiao pursed her lips and said, "He clearly made a mistake. He was already wrong before he divorced for the first time, not trusting his ex-wife enough, which led to such a misunderstanding, not handling it well at the time. Later, feeling guilty, he sent her money and things, fair enough, but why write to her and chat? It must be because the exchange of letters provided comfort to his ex-wife during her loneliness, making her reliant upon him and grow fond of him. In this, he has wronged both his ex-wife and his current wife."

"Hmm, my wife is definitely right."

Meng Xinian timely complemented her.

Jiang Xiao thought about it, feeling puzzled, "But how did you know about this, Tyrant Meng?"

Cui Zhenyan must have kept this matter very tightly guarded. Gao Ming and his group, with their various methods and dealings, they were able to uncover this matter, which didn’t surprise Jiang Xiao since there are no secrets that can remain forever hidden.

Yet Meng Xinian never had any interest in gossip or such matters. He had no conflicts or stakes with Cui Zhenyan or the Cui family, so how did he come to know about this?

Meng Xinian paused for a moment, said with a bit of helplessness, "Zhu Shun, you know? Cui Zhenyan’s ex-wife is from the same village as Zhu Shun. Zhu Shun knows about this matter."

Later, Zhu Shun told him, not out of interest in the gossip, but Zhu Shun is the kind of person who would always consider his friends as his own brothers, thinking that the Cui family’s status might have some implications for Meng Xinian in the future. He found an opportunity to inform him about this.

Such matters, unless something happens, Meng Xinian would never remember them. He also didn’t intend to casually spread gossip.

He only remembered because Jiang Xiao brought it up.

Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but rub her forehead.

It was because of this.

"But now knowing this, I really have no way to intervene. This isn’t a matter outsiders can help solve." Jiang Xiao said resignedly.

This explains why Cui Zhenyan wouldn’t say anything to her.

Nor could he help but heed Gao Ming’s advice.

Such a matter, if truly exposed, would definitely tarnish his reputation.

Being married for so many years and yet remaining linked with the ex-wife?

Not to mention an impending scandal, Madam Cui wouldn’t be able to bear the blow.

Meng Xinian pondered for a while and said, "There are two ways, one is to directly let the matter be exposed."

Jiang Xiao immediately had a black face.

"How is that possible? What if Grandma Cui really can’t handle the shock?"

"Didn’t you say Madam Cui’s heart illness has improved a lot?"

"It has improved a lot, but I can’t be sure if faced with a major shock something could happen." It is said that heart ailments require heart medicine, and Madam Cui’s heart ailment has not been completely cured.

If this matter were to come out, and Madam Cui really couldn’t handle the shock, wouldn’t she indirectly harm Madam Cui?

She likes Madam Cui and absolutely cannot do such a thing.
