Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1031: Do You Still Remember Me?

This ti, having visited everyone she needed to at the chanical Factory, Xinyan followed He Jinxuan towards Shangze Town.

On the way, He Jinxuan shared the information he had gathered with Xinyan: "Back then, those who attended the burial of Old Master Gu — we can only locate two of them now. However, one had a stroke and can no longer speak clearly, so we can only reach out to that uncle with the surna Liang now.

However, he used to be the village’s caretaker, taking the mule cart into town every day during winter, which counted as a side business for the village.

Now that land has been distributed, the animals raised by the village have all been assigned to the mbers, and Uncle Liang couldn’t bear to part with the mule he had carefully raised, so he bought it.

Now that he is older, his family won’t allow him to work in the fields anymore. Except during busy farming seasons, when he’ll help out in the fields, he usually drives the mule cart into town to ferry passengers and earns a little running fee."

Upon hearing Uncle Liang’s na, Xinyan recalled the several ntions of him by the Grandson of Gousheng, and also rembered having once taken a ride on his mule cart, wondering if it’s the sa person.

They chose to find him in town because Uncle Liang wouldn’t return from town until the sun sets. If they wanted to find him before heading back to the city, they must go to the town.

On this cold day, there weren’t many pedestrians around, and the reason why He Jinxuan didn’t ask Lu Haibo to drive them was that Lu Haibo had been called away by his leader after accompanying He Jinxuan. He didn’t want to affect others because of himself.

Secondly, the chanical Factory is only two li from Shang’an Town. They strolled over, which didn’t take long.

He Jinxuan glanced around to make sure no one was nearby, then reached to hold Xinyan’s hand: "Yanyan, I’ve already arranged things at the little white building. Tomorrow is just the weekend, leaving only the duty staff in each departnt. We can visit again after nine in the morning, and I’ll take you inside."

Upon hearing about the little white building, Xinyan felt sowhat heavy-hearted, having stayed at the chanical Factory for more than half a year without realizing it was previously an industry owned by the Gu Family.

Old Master Gu was quite shrewd, handing over all his apparent assets in advance, which included this chanical Factory. The governnt said they left the ownership of the little white building to the Gu Family, welcoming them to visit the factory anyti.

But nobody knew what exactly happened that year, when Old Master Gu, on his last visit to collect his things, encountered a tragic incident leading to his demise.

Unable to figure it out, Xinyan decided not to dwell on it. Without any clues, it was presumably about money and interests, believing that the truth would eventually co to light.

They didn’t have much trouble finding Uncle Liang.

Xinyan was indeed right — it was the Uncle Liang from the sa village as the Grandson of Gousheng.

What surprised Xinyan was that Uncle Liang actually recognized both her and He Jinxuan: "Oh, isn’t this Director He?"

Then he looked at Xinyan: "Ah, it’s you, Miss?"

Xinyan approached with a smile: "Uncle, you still rember ?"

Uncle Liang laughed, stepping down from the cart, ignoring the other drivers playing chess: "How could I not? The Grandson of Gousheng often talks about you."

Since the Grandson of Gousheng was ntioned, Xinyan naturally inquired: "Uncle Liang, how is Gousheng’s grandmother?"

Uncle Liang sighed: "She passed away in March this year, it was for the best; she’s no longer suffering, and the grandson doesn’t need to worry about dicine costs anymore."

For a mont, everyone fell silent.

Though that was the reality, it nevertheless felt unsettling in their hearts.

Uncle Liang might have sensed the awkward atmosphere: "This year, Gousheng was sent to school too. He’s a diligent student, aware of the difficulties his grandfather faces to send him to school, so he studies very hard. Recently, I heard he got two perfect scores and made his grandfather very happy."

After speaking, Uncle Liang sighed again: "Gousheng is a good child who knows gratitude; after school, he rushes ho to help his grandfather as much as possible, yet he doesn’t neglect his studies."

After discussing this, Xinyan spoke up: "Uncle Liang, we ca today specifically looking for you, hoping to ask you about past events. Do you think we could discuss this privately?"
