Seeing everyone follow along—especially Uncle Xia—ward Xia Chuyi’s heart.
Many tis, when mistakes have been made, our eyes should seek out the good.
No matter how bad the Xia Family is, Second Brother Xia exists; no matter how bad Mother Xia is, Uncle Xia exists.
"Alright, let’s all go." Xia Chuyi smiled and said.
Upon seeing this situation, Huo Shiqian’s heart finally relaxed.
His girl had truly let go.
But Ou Jun’s brows furrowed even tighter; he glanced at Xia Chuyi, then at Uncle Xia and the others, and finally sighed without saying anything.
Just then, Chang Luhui and his subordinates returned with Sister-in-law Hong.
Chang Luhui shared what he had found with everyone, and after comparing notes, they confird Mother Xia’s words were true.
Xia Lan had indeed threatened Mother Xia.
"Alright, I get it; we’ll talk about this later." Huo Shiqian nodded and said to Chang Luhui.
Xia Chuyi nodded in agreent, saying, "Yes, we’ll talk about it later."
Then, just as everyone was getting into the car and starting it up, soone blocked the vehicle.
"Stop the car! Quick, stop the car!" The person blocking the car turned out to be Xia i.
Seeing Xia i, Xia Chuyi imdiately furrowed her brows.
Since there was soone in front of the car, the driver naturally didn’t dare to move.
Seeing the car stop, Xia i imdiately shouted, "Xia Chuyi, get out, co out!"
Upon hearing this, everyone inside the car imdiately frowned.
Especially Xia Chuyi, who frowned even deeper.
The main branch of the Xia family had stayed silent for so long without daring to act—what was Xia i doing now?
"I’ll go see what’s happening." After pursing her lips, Xia Chuyi said.
Xia Chuyi got out of the car, and Huo Shiqian and Ou Jun naturally followed her out.
Two imposing soldiers stood in front, slightly startling Xia i.
However, thinking of sothing, Xia i clenched her teeth, placed her hands on her hips, and shouted to everyone, "Officers, brother-in-law, hello, I’m Xia Chuyi’s cousin. My na is Xia i!"
"I know Chuyi found a high-ranking officer and studies in the Capital City, she’s accomplished, quite impressive!" Probably having prepared her speech well, Xia i spoke with great fluency, "But one can’t forget their roots, no matter how successful she is, she’s still one of us, from the Old Xia Family!"
"So, it’s absolutely unacceptable that she enjoys the high life in the Capital City, while we’re stuck eating rough food in the countryside. That would be forgetting our ancestors and betraying our roots—that’s looked down upon by others!"
With Xia i’s words, the atmosphere instantly fell silent.
Old Xia Family?
Betraying one’s roots?
Ha.
What effective ’moral coercion’ through blood relations!
However, Xia i thought that the stillness among the people was due to their being "afraid" of her.
So, Xia i displayed so smugness, saying, "I don’t ask for much now, just for Xia Chuyi to arrange a job for my husband in the county, then I’ll consider you a true mber of the Xia Family and be your genuine good sister."
What a "genuine good sister" indeed!
Upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian and Xia Chuyi were okay, but Ou Jun couldn’t help but feel an urge to act.
At that mont, seeing the situation ahead, Uncle Xia and the others from the car behind imdiately got out.
"Xia Family girl, what are you doing!" Uncle Xia rushed up as soon as he got out of the car, sternly rebuking and shielding the group.
"Xia i, go back!" Xia Chengzong shouted bluntly.
Aunt Xia went even further by directly pulling Xia Chuyi over, shielding her, saying, "Are you all from the main branch of the Xia family worms? Clinging on even now?"
