Chapter 7 ruined the scumbag father's plan; the scumbag father broke down and slapped Xia Yuhuan.
Xia Yuhuan stepped forward and opened the door.
The door had just opened when a huge bag came right in front of me.
Xia Yuhuan reacted quickly and dodged the other person's hand.
Although she is a doctor who mainly conducts medical research, she pays great attention to exercise in order to maintain good health so as not to hinder her research progress.
So although she hadn't specifically trained in self-defense and wasn't particularly skilled, her reflexes were quick; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to escape their pursuit so easily yesterday.
After all, she adheres to the principle of running away if she can't win, and she runs incredibly fast.
"Xia Jianyong, what's wrong with you?" Xia Yuhuan snapped, her face displeased.
Xia Jianyong glared angrily at Xia Yuhuan: "What did you do? Why did the Chi family come to our door saying they're not going to hold the wedding?"
Xia Yuhuan then understood why Xia Jianyong had broken down.
It turned out that Zhang Xianya had come to their door to say that the wedding was being canceled.
No wonder Xia Jianyong reacted that way.
Xia Yuhuan said, "Chi Yanzhou is still unconscious. There is no need to hold the wedding. Even if it were to happen, it would only make us a laughing stock."
"You don't know anything!" Xia Jianyong shouted angrily, "Go and tell the Chi family right now that the wedding will proceed as scheduled and will not be canceled."
He also hoped to build connections with the Chi family at the wedding to pave the way for the Xia family.
Xia Yuhuan's commotion has completely disrupted his plans and arrangements.
Seeing that Xia Jianyong looked like he wanted to devour her, Xia Yuhuan secretly chuckled to herself: This was exactly the effect she wanted.
"I'm not going. You can go by yourself," Xia Yuhuan said, closing the door and walking downstairs.
"Xia Yuhuan, don't force me to beat you up! I'm telling you, you have to go today whether you like it or not!" Xia Jianyong roared.
"I said I wouldn't do it, so I won't. I said I'd do it, so I won't. Who do you think I am, that I can arbitrarily influence the Chi family's decisions?" Xia Yuhuan replied irritably.
"The fact that the Chi family readily agreed not to hold a wedding shows that they didn't really want to have one in the first place. Is canceling the wedding my achievement? It was their own idea! I was just a catalyst."
Upon hearing this, Xia Jianyong's anger faltered, and his eyes showed some uncertainty.
Yes, if the Chi family really wanted to hold this wedding, why would they cancel it just because of Xia Yuhuan's few words?
The current situation only shows that the Chi family never wanted to hold the wedding.
Realizing this, Xia Jianyong's eyebrows furrowed.
Xia Yuhuan was secretly laughing to herself when she saw Xia Jianyong following her train of thought.
How could the Chi family be unwilling? Zhang Xianya felt that Chi Yanzhou was unconscious and unable to personally marry her, which made her feel very sorry for him. She wished she could make up for it by giving him everything she could. The one who really didn't want to have a wedding was her!
It was because she made this request and repeatedly begged that Zhang Xianya reluctantly agreed.
Xia Yuhuan was destined to divorce Chi Yanzhou, and she didn't want to start off with a huge commotion that would end badly.
"I can't do anything about the wedding anyway, so let it be. As long as I marry Chi Yanzhou, the Xia family and the Chi family will be related by marriage, and you will get what you want. What's there to worry about?"
Xia Jianyong was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to swallow this bitter pill.
After all, it was he who needed to rely on the Chi family, not the other way around. Their status and position determined their hierarchical relationship.
After dinner, Xia Yuhuan wandered around the Xia family villa by herself.
Xia Zhuyu thought she was going to do something, so she followed her closely.
Xia Yuhuan didn't care that she was following along and wandered around aimlessly.
After wandering around for a while, Xia Yuhuan had finished digesting her food and turned back to her room.
Xia Zhuyu followed her all night but found nothing. She was walked around like a dog, and Xia Zhuyu was furious.
In the dead of night, Xia Yuhuan quietly left her room and tiptoed downstairs to the storage room to retrieve a hoe and a sickle.
She found this place after scouting it out after dinner.
She wanted to cultivate the wasteland in the space to grow things, but she needed tools; she couldn't just dig it up with her hands, could she?
As for the items, she will return them after she has used them.
Xia Yuhuan dug in the space for most of the night.
She was so tired that her back ached.
However, after a few sips of the spiritual spring water, her fatigue vanished, and she was fully rejuvenated.
At this point, Xia Yuhuan unlocked the second function of the spiritual spring water: eliminating physical fatigue.
Xia Yuhuan secretly put the tools back in the middle of the night before going back to her room to sleep.
Before falling asleep, she vaguely thought that she should go out and buy tools such as hoes and sickles to put in her space, so that it would be convenient to use them later, and she wouldn't have to go through all this trouble of sneaking around.
Moreover, these things can be used not only for farming but also for self-defense.
Xia Yuhuan acted on her idea immediately, and went directly to the supply and marketing cooperative after breakfast the next day.
Although she didn't know many people in the capital, Xia Yuhuan still disguised herself and covered herself up completely before going to buy farm tools in order to avoid being discovered by Xia Zhuyu.
When she was buying things, the salesperson kept staring at her because she was wrapped up so tightly, as if she were some kind of dangerous person.
After buying the farm tools, Xia Yuhuan found a secluded, dark corner of an alley, put the tools in her spatial storage, removed her disguise, and then left the alley, returning to the supply and marketing cooperative.
She was too nervous just now and didn't even get a good look at what a supply and marketing cooperative looked like or what they sold inside.
This is a good time to take a good look around.
Xia Yuhuan didn't have anything she absolutely needed to buy, so she strolled around casually, looking here and there, and soon finished visiting the supply and marketing cooperative.
The supply and marketing cooperative was essentially a general store, selling almost everything. However, in that era, the planned economy meant that everything was rationed, and productivity was low, so the variety of goods was limited, and good products were even scarcer.
What we have now, future generations will also have, and even better.
What doesn't exist now, will exist in future generations.
So after walking around for a while, Xia Yuhuan lost interest.
She was about to leave when she heard people arguing, loudly and noisily.
Xia Yuhuan couldn't help but turn her head and glance at the counter, where a sales clerk was scolding an elderly woman standing in front of her with a fierce expression.
The old man was so angry that his face turned ashen, and he clutched his clothes at his chest, looking like he couldn't breathe.
"Something's wrong, this is bad." Xia Yuhuan knew something was wrong when she saw the old man's expression, and hurriedly walked over there.
The saleswoman snapped, "Don't think I'll let you off the hook just because you're pretending to be out of breath. I'm not going to fall for your tricks..."
As she was speaking, the old man suddenly collapsed softly to the ground.
The sales clerk was stunned, her eyes wide, and she even forgot to reach out and help the elderly woman.
Xia Yuhuan arrived just in time and hugged the old man tightly.
"Grandpa, how are you? Can you hear me?" Xia Yuhuan shouted loudly.
However, the old man's eyes were now closed, and he appeared to be in a coma.
Seeing this, the sales clerk panicked and hurriedly tried to distance herself, saying, "She fainted on her own. It has nothing to do with me. I didn't cause it."
The commotion was so great that it attracted other customers from the supply and marketing cooperative to come over.
