Chapter 1181: Chapter 1181: Bai Xue is Pregnant 5 Chapter 1181: Chapter 1181: Bai Xue is Pregnant 5 Guo Xiuying shook her head without speaking.
Bai Xue’s attitude towards her stepson was naturally not right, but everyone was aware of those two children’s behavior, so no one blad Bai Xue.
When Feng Qingxue got off the kang and started to move around, she suddenly rembered what Guan Cheng had ntioned yesterday and asked, “Sister Xiuying, Bai Xue, do you know any old revolutionary’s wife nad Wang Xiangxue, about fifty years old?”
Guo Xiuying and Bai Xue were both startled and blurted out simultaneously, “Wang Xiangxue?”
“That’s right, she seems to be from Shanghai,” said Feng Qingxue.
Bai Xue was the first to shake her head. “I’ve never heard that na before, never have.”
Feng Qingxue looked towards Guo Xiuying. “Bai Xue doesn’t know. How about you, sister? Have you heard this na before?”
“Wang Xiangxue? Wang Xiangxue?” Guo Xiuying thought for a long ti but couldn’t recall, “I haven’t heard it before; it’s possible she changed her na, or else I just don’t know her. Because of family reasons, I grew up in the military, and my father used to be an army doctor, so I’m acquainted with most of the anti-Japanese war generals and their families, but I’ve truly never heard the na Wang Xiangxue.”
Feng Qingxue felt a bit disappointed. “Never mind then, I was just casually asking.”
“Do you need to find this person for sothing important?” Not only was Guo Xiuying curious, but Bai Xue also widened her curious eyes. “I can ask Old Su later, he’s been at war for years and knows a lot of people.”
Feng Qingxue smiled. “It’s nothing important, just inquiring for soone else.”
Guo Xiuying and Bai Xue both took note of it, and that evening, when Bai Xue got ho, she asked Su Junlin.
Su Junlin was surprised, “Why are you asking about her?”
“Just asking. Is there a problem?” Seeing Su Ping and Su An eating as if they had never been full in eight hundred years, smacking their lips and tossing the chopsticks they had sucked on back into the plates to turn over the food, Bai Xue was clearly unhappy and lost her appetite as well.
Su Junlin quickly moved the only dish the sons hadn’t ssed up in front of Bai Xue and at the sa ti tapped the back of the hand of Su Ping, who was about to jab his chopsticks into the plate, and glared at him sternly before saying to his wife, “There’s nothing wrong with asking. It’s just been a long ti since I’ve heard that na, it’s strange hearing it co from you suddenly.”
Seeing the dish in front of her, Bai Xue’s mood improved a bit. “So, do you know Wang Xiangxue?”
“Yes,” Su Junlin nodded. “She’s the wife of Zhou Xuekui, Chief of Staff Zhou. Didn’t you et Sister Zhou when you stayed in the compound? Her birth na is Wang Xiangxue.”
Bai Xue thought for a while, then suddenly said, “The Shanghai capitalist’s daughter?”
“That’s her.”
Bai Xue had nothing to say because she, too, had once been envious of Wang Xuehai’s grace and sophistication.
Now she must be in her fifties. When Bai Xue saw Wang Xuehai in the compound, she had just turned fifty, yet the years seed to have left no trace on her. Her skin was very white, her cheeks beautiful, she was so composed, so elegant, her hair done in a neat bun, dressed in a proper cheongsam, always wearing lipstick, and would sotis spray so French perfu.
However, Wang Xuehai rarely left the house; in her free ti, she would water the flowers and prune the bamboo in her small courtyard, living a rather capitalist lifestyle. Many people gossiped about her behind her back, calling her an old witch, sothing Bai Xue had overheard several tis.
Even if she was being called an old witch, it was still worthwhile in Bai Xue’s eyes, who dread about spraying so perfu and applying so lipstick and rouge.
“Wait a minute, Old Su, you said Wang Xiangxue is Wang Xuehai, isn’t she the one who got into trouble? I seem to recall hearing soone say that Wang Xuehai and Chief of Staff Zhou were sent down to Shanbei Farm.”
