Xie Dahong really didn't like the daughter he had with Tao Hongmei.
Never cared either.
But this daughter is currently his most promising child.
Not only did he make achievements, he also went to high school and had a good partner.
He has heard that the one from the Qin family is about to be reinstated. The great man wants to rotate the eight military regions, and that one is likely to make further progress.
Xie Dahong said to Fan Yong with a cold face: "Xiaoyong, apologize to Xiaowan!"
Xie Dahong usually has a face like Maitreya Buddha, but when he really gets angry, everyone in this family knows that he is quite terrifying.
Fan Yong was also afraid of his stepfather.
The reason he came back this time was because the working group was inspecting construction corps in various places. He had done some things and was afraid of being discovered, so he came back to hide.
He was also hoping that Xie Dahong would transfer him back to the Second Division and join the regular army.
At this moment, he didn't dare to offend Xie Dahong at all.
Although Fan Yong was unwilling in his heart, he still swallowed his anger and quietly apologized to Xie Wan: "Xiao Wan,...I, I shouldn't have done that."
Xie Wan was just pretending to be weak.
She wanted to block Shi Yun and her son's way of framing her in the future.
She would not let this mother and son go so easily.
So, she squeezed out tears, leaned on Xie Dahong's shoulder and cried, "Dad, they wanted to drive me away just now, but I said this is my dad's home.
Aunt Shi said that I was only fit to live in the woodshed, and asked me to give up my room to her son, wuwuwu...
Dad, am I not your daughter?
Isn't this your home?"
What she said was extremely heartbreaking.
Xie Dahong's anger, which had been suppressed because Fan Yong bowed his head to apologize, suddenly rose again.
He yelled at Shi Yun: "This is my home. If you dare to bully my daughter, get out!"
Shi Yun usually dares to make trouble with Xie Dahong, but when Xie Dahong really gets angry, she can only admit defeat.
She explained in a panic: "I didn't mean to chase Xiao Wan away. I just wanted her to squeeze in with Hongxia."
Xie Dahong said rudely and unreasonably: "Why do you ask Xiaowan to squeeze with Hongxia?
My daughter, doesn’t she even deserve a separate room in this house?
If you want to live in the woodshed, then go live in the woodshed!"
The Xie family doesn’t have a woodshed.
There was only a shed with honeycomb coal in the yard.
Under Xie Dahong's rage, Shi Yun, Fan Yong and others finally gave in.
But Xie Wan saw the hatred in the eyes of the mother and son.
It is easy to dodge a spear, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark.
At this time, the idea of getting married also popped up in Xie Wan's mind.
Living with Qin Muye is much safer than staying under the same roof with this family, right?
And as for Shi Yu, Xie Wan always felt that today's incident was most likely instigated by Shi Yu in the ears of Shi Yun and Fan Yong.
When Xie Dahong sent Xie Wan upstairs, Xie Wan said:
"Dad, there's something I want to tell you."
Xie Dahong followed into Xie Wan's room.
Xie Wan continued to pretend to be weak, half lying on the bed.
After careful consideration, she said to Xie Dahong: "Dad, Shi Yu was very strange."
Seeing that Xie Wan was fine, Xie Dahong calmed down.
He tucked the quilt for Xie Wan disapprovingly and said with a smile: "Xiao Wan, Shi Yu is just a little girl.
You can't target her just because she once dated Qin Muye."
Xie Wan wanted to make Xie Dahong have a grudge against the Shi family.
"There is something I have been holding in my heart and have not dared to tell you, for fear that you would say I am imagining things."
"Then go ahead and talk. Dad is listening."
"Dad, I suspect Shi Yu has something to do with my mother's death."
Although Xie Wan couldn't find evidence to make Shi Yu accept legal sanctions, she didn't want her to get away with it.
She thought that if she told Xie Dahong about the matter, perhaps with Xie Dahong's ability, he could find out something.
"Xu Bing and I both saw Shi Yu with Zheng Hu, the guy who tried to rob people on the road last time.
Zheng Hu's accomplices confessed that they had been to Renjia Village on the day my mother died and had also gone to my mother's home to search for things.
My mother's family is so poor, what could there be worth stealing?
Someone must have instructed this.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Xie Dahong's expression changed.
After Xie Wan came back, Xie Dahong sent someone to investigate.
The family that Tao Hongmei married into was really poor.
Those people are not from Renjia Village. What can they steal by running so far to Tao Hongmei's house?
Xie Dahong immediately thought of the jade ring that Tao Hongmei had stolen from the Xie family.
The only thing worth stealing from Tao Hongmei's house could be the jade ring.
Xie Dahong asked suspiciously, "But I didn't tell Shi Yun about the jade ring."
Xie Wan added: “I don’t know what’s going on.
If you hadn’t asked me to go back and search my mom’s belongings to see if there was that ring, I wouldn’t have been able to remember some things…”
Xie Wan told Xie Dahong that when she first came to the Xie family, Shi Yu had tried to see her belongings many times and her room had been searched.
Xie Dahong's eyes became increasingly gloomy.
He has a problem of talking in his sleep.
He began to wonder if he had exposed the matter of the emerald ring while talking in his sleep.
“What are they looking for that emerald ring for?
If it were in the past, it might still be worth some money.
But now, even if I sell it, it's worth at most a hundred bucks, is it really necessary to go to all this trouble?"
Xie Dahong obviously had no idea of the value of the jade ring.
Of course, Xie Wan couldn't tell Xie Dahong.
But she expressed some of her speculations.
"Dad, even though our family was poor peasants for three generations, since we have a family heirloom like the jade ring, we must have been a big family in the past.
