When Xia's mother and father received Xia Jing's call, they were a little confused. They hurriedly memorized the address but forgot to ask Qiao Shu's sister's name.

They asked several passersby at the alley entrance, but none of them knew who "Qiao Shu's sister" was or where she lived.

"Come with me!"

As soon as Ye Linlang saw the two sisters, Qiao Xiang and Qiao Yu, she guessed the identity of the couple.

"Girl, do you know Qiao Shu's sister?"

"What kind of person is she? Is she a good person or a bad person?"

Mother Xia asked Ye Linlang as she spoke.

Ye Linlang didn't respond, and Mother Xia continued to ramble on, "I don't think he's a good person. If he were, his brother wants a divorce, and as his sister, shouldn't he try to persuade him?"

Father Xia had a sullen face and scolded, "Family disgrace should not be made public. Do you understand?"

Mother Xia closed her mouth silently, then turned to Qiao Xiang and Qiao Yu and said, "Qiao Xiang, Qiao Yu, when you see your heartless father later, you must have a good talk with him. Your daughter is already so old, why is he thinking of getting a divorce?"

Ye Linlang glanced at the sisters Qiao Xiang and Qiao Yu without making any expression.

She really didn't know which side the two sisters, Qiao Xiang and Qiao Yu, would stand on after they knew what Xia Jing had done.

Xia Zhi knew that Qiao Nian and his family were out, so he made some side dishes and wanted to send them to the Ye family.

After everyone from the Ye family came back, the sisters Qiao Nian and Chen Xuelan didn't have to rush to prepare dinner.

As soon as Xia Zhiyi came out of the courtyard gate, he bumped into Xia's parents.

Mother Xia didn't even bother to give any instructions to the two sisters, Qiao Xiang and Qiao Yu.

She rushed to Xia Zhi and grabbed her hair.

"You ungrateful, unlucky person, why don't you just die outside?"

When Xia Zhi heard his mother's voice, his body trembled inexplicably.

The fear deeply rooted in her body brought her back to those miserable days.

"Don't you dare touch my mom!"

Xia Zhao rushed to Xia's mother like a little wolf cub, and bit her arm that was pulling Xia Zhi's hair.

Mother Xia loosened her arms in pain and angrily pushed Xia Zhao away.

Xia Zhao lost his balance and nearly fell to the ground.

Ye Linlang reached out and hugged Xia Zhao.

"Xia Zhao, be careful."

Xia Zhi also handed the bamboo basket in his hand to Ye Linlang, "Linlang, take it back."

"Oh, okay."

Xia Zhi took Xia Zhao's hand, without even looking at Xia's mother, and said softly: "Xia Zhao, let's go home."

"Xia Zhi, stop right there!"

Mother Xia was furious.

Father Xia grabbed Mother Xia and scolded her, "That's enough. What are you making a fuss about? The most important thing right now is Xia Jing."

Mother Xia stared at the backs of Xia Zhi and Xia Zhao, mother and son, and suddenly an absurd guess emerged in her mind.

Could that little brat be the son of Qiao Shu and Xia Zhi?

No!

impossible!

When Xia Zhi left as an educated youth, she was not pregnant yet.

As Mother Xia was thinking this, her eyes happened to meet Xia Zhao's wolf-like, fierce eyes.

She shuddered inexplicably, took a deep breath, suppressed the panic in her heart, and followed Ye Linlang into the Ye family.

Mother Xia asked Ye Linlang, "Is this Sister Qiao Shu's home?"

Ye Linlang nodded.

"Qiao Shu, get out here!"

As soon as Qiao Shu heard Xia's mother's voice, he hurried out of the bedroom and into the courtyard.

Just as Qiao Shu left the bedroom, Xia Jing, who had been unconscious, opened her eyes.

Her scarlet eyes stared at the mosquito net above her head, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly, revealing a cunning sneer.
