When Li Caixia and the others returned in the evening, they also learned about this matter. Anyway, Li Caixia had no intention of dealing with it; she was only concerned about her own shop and her son’s studies now.
"Big sister, I want to go back to see my mom tomorrow too," Xu Wan whispered to Xu Mumu. She was studying liberal arts and hadn’t participated in the physics competition, so she could ask for leave.
"Alright, you can co back with us tomorrow," Xu Mumu nodded, not refusing.
"Third sister, I’ll ask for leave for you tomorrow; I know your teacher Liao," Xu Jiaojiao imdiately said.
"Okay, thank you, Jiaojiao," Xu Wan said gratefully. Since she ca to this school, she got along well with Xu Jiaojiao. After all, they were real cousins, and her relationships with other classmates weren’t as strong, mainly because she was rather introverted.
"No problem," Xu Jiaojiao waved her hand indifferently. If it weren’t for the exams coming up, she would have wanted to rush back too.
The next morning, Xu Mumu got up early; it was rare for her to wake up so early, and she was a bit unaccustod to it.
Xu Mumu washed up, ate breakfast, and Yin Yang was also preparing to go back with them. Even though there were so many people from the Xu Family watching, he was still a bit uneasy with his little wife going so far.
Going back with them were not only Madam Chen but also Xu Hai. Li Caixia had to watch over the shop, Old Xu was guarding the fast-food restaurant, and not many people returned. Xu Minghui and the others were still in school, with all the business at the departnt store, there was simply no ti to return to the county.
Sitting in the car, looking at the changes in the provincial capital, she didn’t co back often, and the whole city was getting better and better. Xu Mumu felt proud. She knew very well how poor it was here in the past. Now, with such a big change, Yin Yang and Huo Qingze played indispensable roles.
The weather was a bit overcast today, sowhat stuffy, but there were quite a few people strolling around the county.
Nowadays, the county city is very prosperous, selling all kinds of goods. Even if there’s not much money in the bag, people still want to stroll around. Just looking at those exquisite goods makes people feel motivated to earn money.
The car drove to the county hospital; yesterday Madam Chen had already inquired about which ward Qian Ying was in. After asking two people, they found the room.
There were quite a few people in the ward. Xu Jiang was staying here with his son to look after Qian Ying. The couple from the fourth room had also brought their son over. It was Xu He from the third room, and Xu Qingxing and Qin Liang had co over too.
"Mom." Seeing Madam Chen and the others arrive, Xu Jiang and the others quickly made room.
Qian Ying lay on the bed, her face pale. Xu Xue was holding her little brother on one side, not looking pleased.
Xu Xue naturally knew about this incident. Thinking about how her family was being bullied like this, with her parents still advising her to let it go, there was no way she could just let it go.
Seeing her parents like this made Xu Xue feel extrely upset. Couldn’t they be a bit tougher? This ti it was a broken leg; would it be life-threatening next ti?
"Is everything alright with people?" Madam Chen disdainfully glanced around the room and then focused on Qian Ying.
"Mom, I’m alright. You didn’t need to make the trip," Qian Ying said weakly.
"It’s nothing serious, just a broken leg," Madam Chen rolled her eyes.
Over the phone, so things couldn’t be explained clearly. Madam Chen carefully asked about the situation here and knew that as long as Qian Ying lay in bed for two months, she’d be fine. As long as no one would die, it was fine.
"Second, just tell , how do you plan to solve this?" Madam Chen looked calmly at Xu Jiang.
"I-I don’t know," Xu Jiang pursed his lips, feeling a bit lost, not really knowing what to do. He didn’t want his in-laws to cause trouble at ho, but every ti they used filial piety to press him, causing a stir in the brigade, he was embarrassed to bother the team leader anymore.
It was a bit better when Madam Chen and the others were at ho. Madam Chen had a reputation for being fierce, and the family had a tough character like Li Caixia, making the Qian Family hesitant to provoke the Xu Family.
But now that the families had split, and Madam Chen had gone to the provincial city to enjoy life with the big room, only the second room was left in this countryside. The couple from the second room was soft-hearted and easily manipulated.
They knew that the shop run by the second room made a lot of money, even Xu Xue had opened a shop herself. They didn’t know how much she made, but it didn’t quell their greed.
Xu Wan had good grades in school and was said to have scholarships available. The second room was doing well, and the Qian Family, since Qian Ying was their kin, would co over. Every ti Old Mrs. Lin brought a few sons and daughters-in-law, they would take sothing from the second room every ti they made a move.
Only Xu Xue had a fiery temper; as long as she was there, they couldn’t get good things. They ca several tis without luck from Xu Xue, so they specifically picked tis when she wasn’t there to co.
Madam Chen’s face darkened, these useless fools, deserved to be bullied.
"Second brother, are you just letting this slide with sister-in-law?" Xu Hai sneered at Xu Jiang. If Li Caixia was bullied, he absolutely wouldn’t stand for it. Though there weren’t many who dared to provoke soone like Li Caixia.
"It won’t just end like this. Big brother, third uncle, fourth uncle, could you co with to the Qian Family to settle this?" Xu Xue stood up directly, not wanting to endure anymore. What was the point of having such relatives if they dared to hit people? This ti, she wanted to teach them a painful lesson.
"Go, you’re more useless than a girl. Oldest, go get back what the Qian Family took from us Old Xu Family, and second brother, you go too," Madam Chen decided directly, looking at Xu Xue with less dislike now. Luckily, the second room had soone capable; otherwise, the household would definitely be scattered by these two fools.
"Alright, listen to mom. Our family’s things shouldn’t be given away to others for nothing. Old fourth, do we still have the pole at ho? Get one; if they refuse to return our things, I’ll smash the Qian Family’s place," Xu Hai said eagerly. In his younger days, he was reckless, and now at the thought of causing trouble, he was naturally full of interest.
"There’re quite a few; the eldest brother can pick whichever you want," Xu Po said calmly. With so many brothers in the Xu Family, the advantages are now apparent.
Xu Mumu stood at the side, her mouth twitching. She now understood why Xu Minglei was so unruly before; it all ca from her father’s genetic legacy.
Listening to the brothers discuss how to cause trouble, Qian Ying turned pale, wanting to say sothing, but with Madam Chen standing by gloomily, scornfully looking at the second room, she didn’t dare speak.
Xu Wan sat beside her sister, seeing her parents like this made her feel wronged. Compared to her parents, she preferred her sister.
"Thanks to uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle." Xu Xue quietly breathed a sigh of relief, though she wasn’t particularly fond of the Xu Family’s big and third room mbers, at this mont they stood unwaveringly by her side, leaving her with mixed feelings.
