Duolu said indignantly, "She insulted her aunt, so she deserves to be beaten."

Seeing her disapproving expression, the tall young man, nearly 1.8 meters tall, actually showed a hint of grievance on his face, as if she were the one being unreasonable.

Yu Rujia sighed and comforted her, "Auntie knows you don't like her, but your grandparents will handle her affairs. You're just a junior, so don't worry about it so much, lest others say you don't know how to behave."

Duolu: "If she dares to scold my aunt, I dare to hit her. I don't care about manners or anything like that."

Yu Rujia: "Alright, Auntie knows that our Duolu is the best. She will come over again later. I'll have your grandparents scold her. We're not angry anymore. Be good and go deal with the game you brought back."

Seeing that Duolu still wanted to say something, Yu Rujia pushed him toward the area where the prey was placed, letting the young man get to work.

After seeing off the troublemaker, Yu Rujia spoke to the other children, telling them not to interfere in Xia Wenqing's affairs, and then returned to the courtyard.

She didn't know that some of the children had their own ideas. As soon as she and Xia Yuanqiang left, Duo Le pulled Duo Yi and said, "Duo Yi, when Dad comes back, let's go and tell him."

Mom said to let the elders handle it, and Dad is their elder, so it's no problem to find their biological father.

Duo Yi nodded without hesitation: "Okay, let's ask Dad to teach that bad woman a lesson. Let her curse Mom. She deserves a beating."

The twins and Duoxi also thought they could complain to their grandparents and their father, determined to thwart Xia Wenqing's scheme.

Actually, there's no need for them to complain. Given Xia Wenqing's hostility towards Rujia, she'll definitely lash out in front of Han Meifeng. It would be strange if Han Meifeng let her off easily then.

Yu Rujia is not arguing with Xia Wenqing now because there is no need to waste her precious time on a stray dog.

Xia Tai'an was called over by his father as soon as he entered the door after finishing a day's work. His father then told him that his daughter had come to visit.

Xia Tai'an asked, puzzled, "Isn't Ru Jia always at home? What happened to her?"

Xia Yuanqiang glared at him: "Do you only have one daughter, Rujia?"

Seeing that his father was angry, Xia Tai'an thought for a while before remembering Xia Wenqing, whom he had stuffed into some unknown corner. He hesitated and asked, "Is it Wenqing?"

Xia Jingsheng received Duofu's message last night, but thinking it was getting late, he didn't go to inform his family members one by one. He planned to tell them about it when he got off work this afternoon.

Therefore, Xia Tai'an was unaware that Xia Wenqing had returned.

Xia Yuanqiang: "It was her. She came back and not only cursed Ru Jia, but the children heard it. If Ru Jia and I hadn't come out to stop them, they would have started a fight."

"Think about how to handle this. The house has finally become peaceful. Don't make a mess of it just for her sake."

A cold glint appeared in Xia Tai'an's eyes. After hearing from Xia Jingguo that Xia Taishun had relayed Xia Wenqing's actions, he had given up on this daughter.

This went on for more than a decade. It wasn't until Xia Yuanqiang said his daughter had returned that he stopped thinking about her.

Xia Tai'an: "Didn't we agree to pretend this person doesn't exist in the house? If she comes over, just kick her out. There's no need to be polite with her."

Xia Yuanqiang: "That's what we think, but she doesn't understand. You have to explain it to her clearly, so that she doesn't bother Rujia too often or talk nonsense in front of the children."

Xia Tai'an frowned: "Ru Jia has done more to our family over the years than she, a member of the Xia family, has done. How dare she insult Ru Jia?"

Xia Yuanqiang: "Back then, in order to get out and help us, Ru Jia went through connections and submitted a letter of denunciation. Wen Qing was unaware of the inside story and blamed Ru Jia for the trouble in her family."

“I wrote the whistleblower letter back then. Ru Jia simply submitted it under her own name. This shouldn't be blamed on her. Tell her the truth and tell her not to come.”

Xia Tai'an: "Our family was the first to have an accident. Ru Jia stayed with us for three days before she took your letter of complaint and managed to get things arranged for us to take care of young Duofu and the others."

“If it weren’t for Rujia pulling strings outside, we wouldn’t have been able to be sent down to the countryside so quickly, and even get to such a good place as Shangfen Brigade.”

“Wenqing doesn’t know anything and is just talking nonsense. I will handle this matter properly and will never let her come to cause trouble for Rujia.”

While the father and son were talking about Xia Wenqing, the eldest son, Xia Taiping, and his wife were also greeted by their two grandsons, Duofu and Duoxi, who were eagerly serving them tea and water.

Xia Taiping knew without a doubt that these two boys had something to ask them. After all, these two grandsons were always close to their nephews, Rujia and Xia Jingshu, and never came to them privately to discuss matters.

Xia Taiping glanced at Duofu, who was pretending to be busy, and Duoxi, who was moving around like a monkey, and couldn't help but laugh.

Xia Taiping: "If someone is being overly solicitous, they must be up to no good. Tell me, what do you want me to do for you? Let me make it clear first, don't even think about doing anything illegal or disorderly."

Duoxi immediately moved closer to him and chuckled, "Grandpa, look at what you're saying. I'm a soldier, and the grandson of a high-ranking official like yourself. How could I do those things? Of course not."

Xia Taiping added another point: "I will not hide from your aunt the things you forbid to do and do for you."

Duofu: "Grandpa is wise. Nothing can be hidden from you. It's like this, you know Aunt Wenqing, right?"

Xia Taiping glanced sideways: "How do you know her?"

After Duofu finished explaining, Xia Taiping fell silent, pondering how to handle the situation.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Duoxi quickly asked, "Grandpa, can't you control that Aunt Wenqing either?"

Xia Taiping: "So you came to me wanting me to avenge your aunt?"

Without hesitation, Duoxi replied, "Of course, Auntie forbids us from causing her trouble. She says we are juniors and shouldn't meddle in the affairs of our elders. Grandpa is of a higher generation than that so-called Aunt Wenqing, so he can definitely control her."

Xia Taiping said irritably, "You never come to see us usually, but now that you're elders, you suddenly remember us."

Duo Xi said aggrievedly, "When we are at home, we are busy doing housework every day. When Grandpa comes back from outside, he can have a hot meal and a hot bath. If we didn't think about Grandpa, we wouldn't prepare these things for you."

Xu Xiangyue advised, "Alright, Taiping, stop teasing Duoxi. He's always been sensible, and we don't have to worry about his studies at home."

"Duofu is so busy that he doesn't even have time to rest. How many people can join a major project team at his age? With two such outstanding grandsons, what more could you ask for?"

“Wenqing has really gone too far. You should go and give the second son a heads-up. We can’t let everyone’s hearts be broken over the sake of one biological daughter.”
