"During those two years, they exchanged letters twice. Xinian's mother once told my wife in a letter that in Capital City she had no one else to rely on anymore, and if something were to happen to her, after much thought, the only person she could ask to look after Xinian was my wife. Afterwards, during those turbulent times, we moved several places, and their correspondence thus ended. But my wife always remembered her."
Chiang Xiao listened quietly, but she didn't quite understand why Li Hanzhong was explaining these things in such detail to her. Did Meng Xinian also know about this?
But she was sure that Old Meng didn't know, because from Old Meng's behavior earlier, she realized that although he directly called Li Hanzhong by his name, it was clear that he was not well-acquainted with Li Hanzhong and was quite polite, even reminding her to be modest.
It was known that Old Meng himself was quite a domineering person, and not everyone could receive his special regard.
