Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2519 - 2455: From His Perspective

Jiang Yingqiong paused briefly before inquiring, "Xinian, has Little ever mentioned her father to you?"

Meng Xinian caught on to the implication at once, yet she acted as if she didn't quite get it and responded, "Madam, what exactly do you mean?"

"Well, Xiao Sixth is still so young, you see—a man in his thirties is right at his peak. He shouldn't stay single indefinitely, don't you think?"

Jiang Yingqiong let out a sigh and went on, "I suspect Little might not be aware of the Jiang Family's present circumstances. The family has far too many members and endless matters to attend to. Grandpa's age is catching up, and he can't manage everything like before. Without a woman beside Xiao Sixth to assist with family duties, he'd be overwhelmed on his own."

"Madam, are you talking about Miss Lu?"

"Oh, please, drop the 'Madam'—just call me Auntie, like Little does. For some reason, it feels like Xiao Sixth isn't all that keen on marrying Shuangshuang, is he?"

Earlier, Jiang Yingqiong had gotten a call from Lu Shuangshuang, and the girl sounded like she was masking her true feelings with a forced smile. Her voice carried no real excitement, and she seemed distant, mentioning that the old master intended to take her back to the Lu Family alongside Grandpa in just a few days.

Upon hearing that, Jiang Yingqiong couldn't help but feel something was off.

In the past, Lu Shuangshuang's stays at the Jiang Family never raised any eyebrows. She had her own dedicated room there, set up just how she preferred, making the Jiang Family feel like her true home—and no one ever questioned it.

No matter how extended her time at the Jiang Family was, everyone viewed it as perfectly natural, without a hint of impropriety.

Whenever Lu Shuangshuang spoke, she'd casually say —

Sis, I'm home right now.

Sis, a visitor showed up at home, and I went to welcome them.

Sis, when will you return? The pomegranate tree outside your room is loaded with big fruits—if you delay, I might just harvest and devour them myself.

Overall, it's likely that the entire Jiang Family saw it as Jiang Yingqiong's own residence.

Hadn't the old master always believed that too?

Lu Shuangshuang spent at least more than four months of every year at the Jiang Family.

Plenty of folks in the Jiang Family surely regarded it as her home, with her splitting her time between her husband's side and her parents' place.

Yet now, the old master was urging her to return to the Lu Family?

This situation does appear rather grave.

What's more, Jiang Yingqiong couldn't quite wrap her head around it.

Still, after chatting about it with Li Hanzhong, he urged her to have faith in Xiao Sixth and let him sort it out on his own, advising against meddling since she might not grasp the full story.

Indeed, something must be amiss.

Why else would the old master utter those words?

But Jiang Yingqiong fretted that a fallout with the Lu Family could leave Xiao Sixth in a tough spot.

He's only just come back, so to speak—his strength isn't fully developed yet.

On top of that, she genuinely believes Lu Shuangshuang matches him perfectly.

A woman like her is the only one who can navigate the complexities of a Great Aristocratic Family without breaking a sweat.

Should Xiao Sixth pick a girl from lowly roots or a simple background, mastering all those customs would exhaust her—and wouldn't that lead to mockery down the line?

Fine, even if they shrug off the ridicule, in the end, the weight would all land on Xiao Sixth, with no one to lighten his load.

She's not being self-centered; from Xiao Sixth's perspective, she simply has to think this way.
