Chapter 114 A Solid Backing: She Can Fully Represent the Chi Family
Chi Shaokang and Zhang Xianya are both very cultured people.
Even when surrounded and complained about by several people in such a menacing manner, they did not lose their temper.
After calmly listening to their words, Chi Shaokang said, "I understand what everyone has to say, so what do you want?"
His question left everyone completely dumbfounded.
Didn't they make themselves clear enough?
They just want Xia Yuhuan to apologize and for the Chi family to pay compensation!
"Although I don't know the specific process, I will only say one thing: my daughter-in-law's opinion represents the opinion of the Chi family."
"Her decision is the decision of the Chi family."
"She can fully represent my Chi family."
"So there's no need for you to tell us again, because the outcome won't change."
"My wife and I fully support my daughter-in-law."
After speaking calmly, Chi Shaokang swept his indifferent gaze across the crowd, bringing them immense pressure.
The group of people who had just been shouting suddenly fell silent.
They exchanged a glance, no longer daring to harbor the idea that they had the upper hand, that they could take advantage of He Xiaojie's inability to speak, and force the Chi family to admit their mistake.
An awkward atmosphere spread, but Xia Yuhuan chuckled and said with her arms crossed, "Everyone, it's time to go home for dinner. Are you trying to stay here and have dinner at my house?"
Upon hearing this, the few people who hadn't gained anything couldn't stay any longer and hurriedly left the Chi family.
Chi Shaokang and Zhang Xianya then stepped forward and asked Xia Yuhuan, "Is Xiao Jie alright?"
"It's nothing, he just fell and scraped his hand. I've already put some medicine on it, so don't worry, Mom and Dad."
"Xiao Jie is already asleep. Let's eat first, and then we'll talk later... Xiao Jie? Why are you awake? Was the noise too loud and disturbed you?"
As Xia Yuhuan turned to walk into the house, she saw He Xiaojie hiding behind the door and spoke in surprise.
He Xiaojie rushed up and hugged her, rubbing against her.
Those people were making too much noise, which woke him up, so he sneaked out.
He Xiaojie was filled with panic when he saw that they had come to his door to cause trouble because of him.
He's caused trouble for the family, she'll definitely hate him, right?
However, he witnessed Xia Yuhuan protecting him throughout the entire process.
This made him like and depend on Xia Yuhuan even more.
Xia Yuhuan's eyes softened, and she picked him up.
"Since you're up, let's eat. Eat first, then go back to sleep, so you won't wake up hungry in the middle of the night."
The family went inside for dinner together, and afterwards, they sat in the living room and watched the news broadcast.
He Xiaojie's hand was injured, and it was Chi Shaokang who gave him a bath.
Back in her room, Xia Yuhuan washed up and told Chi Yanzhou about how He Xiaojie had been bullied that day.
"Xiao Jie's silence is a disadvantage. He can't even cry when he's bullied, let alone complain."
"I wonder how many times Xiao Jie has been bullied like this without us noticing."
“After you wake up, we need to have a good talk about Xiao Jie’s upbringing. We can’t let him keep being bullied like this.”
"Otherwise, you can teach him martial arts and self-defense techniques. As long as he is strong enough, even if someone bullies him, he will be able to fight back."
“I don’t want our child to be bullied outside and not be able to fight back.”
As she spoke, Xia Yuhuan snorted again: "I thought that the people living in the compound were all officers with some rank, and their manners should be decent. I didn't expect that the children they raised would be so unruly and impolite."
Although children are young and roughhousing is normal, bullying others like those kids did today goes far beyond normal roughhousing.
Furthermore, the fact that their parents brought their children to cause trouble, trying to take advantage of the situation, made Xia Yuhuan's impression of them extremely bad, and she felt utterly disdainful.
"But it's understandable. People are complex. Just because soldiers are of high quality doesn't mean their families are all good."
"That scumbag Xia Jianyong got a staff officer position because of my grandfather."
"I just hope Dad can act quickly and expose Xia Jianyong's true colors and bring him to justice."
Xia Yuhuan mumbled to herself for a while before drifting off to sleep next to Chi Yanzhou.
Chi Yanzhou was thinking about what Xia Yuhuan had said about teaching He Xiaojie self-defense techniques.
He thought it was feasible, and that once he woke up, it could be arranged.
But what he really wanted to do was teach Xia Yuhuan self-defense techniques.
She was so outstanding that, given the current situation, he found himself worried about her safety.
He would feel more at ease if she were able to protect herself.
But the thought of having a delicate little girl learn self-defense, with all the falling and hitting, made him afraid she would suffer too much.
It's pitiful that such a decisive and ruthless soldier has become indecisive at this moment.
...
The next day was Saturday, and Chi Shaokang took Xia Yuhuan to Jiang Zhicheng's house to attend the apprenticeship banquet.
Zhang Xianya had to go to work, so she couldn't go with them.
When we arrived at Jiang Zhicheng's house, it was still early, and his guests had not yet arrived.
Upon seeing the two arrive, Jiang Zhicheng happily went to greet them.
"Why did you arrive so early? I thought we would have to wait."
Jiang Zhicheng was dressed in a Zhongshan suit today, and he looked particularly energetic.
Xia Yuhuan lifted the things she was carrying and waved them.
"Teacher, this is a gift for your apprenticeship. Where would you like to put it?"
"Why did you bring a gift? I don't need it, you can take it back." Jiang Zhicheng frowned.
He was lucky to have such a good disciple as Xia Yuhuan; he was practically a lucky find. How could he possibly accept Xia Yuhuan's apprenticeship gift?
In fact, he would be happy to give Xia Yuhuan gifts and ask her to become his disciple.
This child's talent is so extraordinary that he can't bear to let it go to waste.
Xia Yuhuan: "In ancient times, there was a fee for becoming a disciple. Although it is not appropriate to make a big fuss about becoming a disciple now, this fee is still a token of my appreciation. You must accept it, or I will not accept it!"
Jiang Zhicheng was about to say something when Xia Yuhuan said, "Stop dawdling and hurry up and pack your things. It would be really bad if the guests came and saw them."
Chi Shaokang, who was standing to the side, also smiled and said, "Just accept the child's kind gesture. It's nothing valuable, so there's no need to feel pressured."
Jiang Zhicheng smiled helplessly upon hearing this: "Hey, you guys, Cheng, come on in, let's go inside first."
As he led the two into the house, he called out, "Xiaoxiao, come quickly, my apprentice Xiaohuan is here, come out and greet him."
As he finished speaking, a woman wearing an apron walked out of the kitchen.
Jiang Zhicheng said to Xia Yuhuan, "My wife, your teacher's wife, is Gao Xiaoxiao."
Gao Xiaoxiao greeted him with a smile, "You must be Xiao Huan, the apprentice Lao Jiang always talks about? It's nice to meet you."
"Hello, Madam." Xia Yuhuan quickly responded with a smile, and then took out the meat, canned goods, and dried goods such as red dates that she was carrying.
"Madam, I brought some meat. Would you like to add a dish for lunch? These dried goods are from the kitchen; I'll take them to the kitchen for you."
"No need, I can do it. There's no reason for you to go into the kitchen on your first visit," Gao Xiaoxiao quickly stopped her.
As she spoke, she took the things from Xia Yuhuan's hands, "Old Jiang, you take care of Lao Chi and Xiao Huan, I'll go to the kitchen to get busy."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, wife," Jiang Zhicheng quickly replied.
"Here, this is for you." Chi Shaokang said from the side, stuffing the things he was carrying into Jiang Zhicheng's hands, looking like he was reluctant to part with them.
