Last night, Xia Lianâer managed to swindle all of Mother Xiaâs savings from these years.
So now, seeing Mother Xia being embarrassingly driven out by Uncle Xia, Xia Lianâer couldnât be bothered to keep a pleasant demeanor.
"I..." Mother Xia couldnât understand why her daughter changed her face so quickly and felt terribly wronged, "Itâs not me...itâs your uncle, he was deceived..."
The "person" Mother Xia referred to was Xia Chuyi, she wanted to defend herself.
However, Xia Lianâer couldnât be bothered to listen, simply saying, "You canât get the store back, nor can you make Uncle like me and dislike Xia Chuyi..."
"Then what use are you as a mother recently?" Xia Lianâer said irritably.
"I, I..." Being scolded like this by Xia Lianâer, Mother Xia was extremely hurt and immediately started crying, "Mom really didnât mean to!"
Xia Lianâer couldnât stand Mother Xiaâs appearance and said hatefully, "Whatâs the use of crying? Youâre still a complete failure!"
"What kind of mother is like you? Canât even protect your own daughter!" Xia Lianâer rolled her eyes and said, "If I go back to the Capital City empty-handed like this, Iâll be tortured to death by the Wang Family sooner or later!"
"A mother like you, better not to have!" Xia Lianâer spoke without any regard for feelings.
Having said this, she turned around and left first.
"Lianâer!" Mother Xia immediately chased after Xia Lianâer.
The figures of the two quickly disappeared down the street.
Just after the two had left, Xia Chuyi and the others finished their business and came back.
"Chuyi, Xiao Guiâs mom, youâre back?" As soon as Uncle Xia saw Xia Chuyi and his wife returning together, all the anger he had felt upon seeing Mother Xia instantly dissipated.
Chuyi was still more in tune with his family, Uncle Xia thought with relief in his heart.
"Yeah, weâre back." It was Aunt Xia who replied to Uncle Xia first.
Just hearing Aunt Xia say, "Chengzong does things really in your style."
"He said he wanted to close the shop and quickly moved things out of the store." Aunt Xia said with a smile, "Fortunately, heâs a man and doesnât have much luggage.
"Otherwise, Chuyi and I couldnât handle it..." Aunt Xia shook her head and said.
Just then, Xia Chuyiâs stomach growled.
"Chuyi, youâre hungry again?" Aunt Xia immediately said, "I told you earlier to eat more in the morning, but you wouldnât listen!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi said with a smile, "I already ate a big bowl of noodles and two poached eggs, isnât that enough?"
"Itâs just that I havenât eaten what you made in a long time, Aunt Xia, so I especially miss it, which is why Iâm always hungry." Xia Chuyi said deliberately in a serious manner.
"You!" Knowing she was flattering her, Aunt Xia shook her head and laughed, "Youâre such a sweet talker!"
Xia Chuyi stuck out her tongue and smiled playfully.
At this moment, Uncle Xia immediately said, "Chuyi, since youâre hungry, quickly go back with your aunt. Donât go hungry!"
"Yeah, letâs go back quickly." Aunt Xia also said, "Donât you like what I make? Iâll make a lot of good food for you and let you eat your fill!"
"Okay." Listening to Aunt Xiaâs bold words, Xia Chuyi smiled and nodded.
In the following days, Xia Chuyi busied herself with helping Xia Chengzong close the shop and rent it out.
Meanwhile, she found an opportunity to discuss with Chen Hai, who was once a black-market dealer and now an organic farm owner.
They talked about providing a supply for "Youwei" in the future.
