Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Upon hearing the old lady's words, Zhao Anbang didn't feel right to dampen their spirits further, but he confirmed again, "Just drive them away? I think such actions can't completely resolve his desire to covet your property."

According to the elderly couple's description, Xu Lei was clearly not willing to let go unless he got the money.

People like this are like sticky candy, impossible to shake off.

Old Xu sighed, "We said we didn't have gold or jewelry, but he simply doesn't believe it. I really can't find a one-time solution right now." Thɪs chapter is updated by nοvelfire.net

His heart was in turmoil, the excitement and joy of being vindicated had been shattered by Xu Lei's appearance.

Old Lady Xu also said, "If he can't get the gold and jewelry he wants, he will probably target this old house and the tens of thousands in compensation money from the state. Such villainy, truly villainy, when we were struggling, their influence was minimal from far away, never once did they say they would visit us, those letters they sent might've been half-truths and lies, now knowing we have been vindicated and have money, with no danger anymore, it's like a cat smelling fish and rushing over eagerly."

The old lady burst into tears, exceptionally sorrowful.

"Such people are shameless by nature, you both know his character, don't be too upset, being upset won't solve the problem."

Hearing Zhao Anbang's words, Old Lady Xu wiped her tears, "Then just drive them away, my old man and I will find a place to hide, after all, I don't want to see him anymore, we've made it through without him before. Also, could you trouble Xiaoxue to make a call, ask someone to investigate the current situation of Xu Lei, when he divorced, when he remarried, when people from Great Northwest had a channel to go to Hong Kong. We want to know who the grandparents mentioned by his daughter are."

Old Xu continued, "Perhaps knowing all this, we might actually have a way to deal with Xu Lei."

Zhao Anbang nodded, "You definitely can't go back to Wanglou Brigade, just stay at my place, regular people can't easily get into the big compound I live in."

Old Xu and Old Lady Xu were grateful beyond words.

Zhao Anbang assigned someone to drive Xu Lei and his daughter out of the Xu Family's mansion, then called Lu Jiang to have him look into Xu Lei.

As for Xu Lei's reaction, Zhao Anbang didn't care at all.

The Great Northwest, which was once Commander Rong's territory, is now under Huo Beiting's control, finding out about Xu Lei would be easy.

Old Xu told Zhao Anbang everything he knew about Xu Lei's workplace, which Zhao Anbang of course passed on to Lu Jiang.

Lu Jiang frowned, not expecting fifty-something Xu Lei to be so overt with his scheming, no wonder the couple were disheartened, unwilling to see him again.

"Got it, I'll call you once I have news."

After hanging up, Lu Jiang relayed the matter to his wife and elders at home without any embellishment.

Cheng Baoguo exclaimed, "Old as they are, to encounter such a matter, really don't know what to say."

Wang Cuilan commented, "I said the oldest of the Xu Family is no good, his expression is quite unsightly."

"All hustle and bustle in this world for profit, nothing is impossible," Lu's father said calmly, seemingly expecting it, "Just watch, those who severed ties with their parents and kin will eventually come back flattering and clinging to the parents and kin they once discarded, for those vindicated comrades have compensations after all, their status isn't bad."
