The village chief's wife was also among them. Seeing that the village chief had resolved the matter, she was about to follow him to Xie's house when she accidentally saw a dazed person next to him.
Isn’t she her good daughter-in-law, Mrs. He?
Thinking of something, the village chief's wife's face changed. She walked to Mrs. He and pulled her. The two of them quickly walked to the back of the team.
"Mom..." Mrs. He shouted somewhat embarrassedly.
Ever since she was beaten for selling overnight braised food with the Lu family, she could no longer be arrogant in front of her parents-in-law.
Especially since her and the Lu family's braised food business failed, but the Xie family's business, supported by her parents-in-law, was growing bigger and bigger, she felt more and more embarrassed. She avoided her parents-in-law and even spoke very quietly at home, trying to reduce her presence as much as possible.
"The eldest brother's wife," the village chief's wife looked at her coldly.
"Hey?" Mrs. He responded quickly.
The village chief's wife: "You should be very happy to know about the Xie family, right?"
Mrs. He shuddered for a moment and said quickly, "No, no!" Of course there is!
After she failed in her business with the Lu family, she was laughed at by the villagers.
What happened to the Xie family now is similar to what happened to them before, and even more serious than theirs. They were just beaten, but Xie Qingxiao was arrested by the police.
How could she not secretly rejoice?
But before she could show off, Mother Lu showed off and mocked the Xie family before she did, and then she was besieged by the villagers...
She watched the whole process, so how could she dare to show off?
I wish I could disappear right there and not let anyone know that she was there!
How well does the village chief's wife know her daughter-in-law?
She sneered and said, "Don't say that the matter of the Xie family has not been determined yet. Even if the Xie family really falls in the future, there are many people in the village who have received favors from their family. You just saw it. If you still want to live in the village, you should keep your tail between your legs and stop causing trouble for me. Otherwise, the fate of the Lu family today will be your fate!"
"Yes, mother, I know!" Mrs. He said hurriedly, her smile uglier than crying.
The village chief's wife ignored her and quickly caught up with the village chief in front of her and went to Xie's house together.
The Xie family also did not sleep all night, as they were all worried about Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi.
After Gao Shengnan returned home last night, she kept calling various parties to inform them that the business would be closed. For some calls that didn't go through, she got up in the early morning to call again. After finishing the calls, she rushed to the factory to take charge of work without even having breakfast.
Mr. and Mother Xie seemed to have aged ten years overnight. Aunt Zhao was heartbroken when she saw them in the morning.
Kuai Le Le was still young and didn’t understand what had happened, but when he woke up in the morning he couldn’t find his mother and cried for a long time.
Aunt Zhao already knew what was going on and took the initiative to take care of the housework. Soon Uncle Xie, Aunt Xie, members of the Xie clan, the village chief, and villagers arrived one after another.
The courtyard at home was almost full of people.
Everyone tried to comfort Xie's father and mother one by one, and the two elders were so moved that they cried. They turned their backs to wipe the tears from the corners of their eyes and said with a slightly choked voice: "Thank you!"
"What are you thanking me for? We can't do anything. We don't even know what happened!"
"That's right. Xiao and Xiangyi have done so much for the village. We are the ones who should be thanking them!"
"If you two elders need our help with anything, just ask us!"
"Yes, you must take good care of yourselves. Ah Xiao and Xiang Yi are both so smart and capable, they will definitely be fine in the end. The village chief said he will go check on them soon, and we will know what happened when he comes back!"
"Yes, I'm going now," said the village chief.
Xie's mother hurriedly said, "Village head, are you going to the county town? Wait a minute, I'll go pack some food and you can bring it to them for me. I wonder if Xiangyi and the others have had their meals yet..."
As she spoke, Xie's mother hurriedly went to pack the food. It was definitely too late to make more, but fortunately there were plenty of dry food and snacks at home.
Upon seeing this, the villagers hurriedly asked the village chief to take the breakfast they had brought for Xie's father and mother. The village chief picked out some easy-to-carry items and went to ride his bicycle.
Xie's father and mother went out to see him off, and the villagers also came out to see him off. It was a spectacular scene.
"You guys go back, I'm leaving now!" The village chief waved his hand and was about to pedal his bicycle when a roar suddenly came.
The villagers also heard it, and the scene was like a boiling pot:
"Why do I hear a truck?"
"Yes, I heard that too!"
"Could it be that Xiao is okay? He came back with Xiangyi!"
"Although I also hope so, it's obviously impossible. How long has it been? Xiangyi and Pengfei must have returned because they were afraid that the two elders of the Xie family would worry."
“I think this is possible too!”
Seeing this, the village chief did not leave in a hurry. He got off his bicycle and looked at the approaching truck with everyone.
The closer the truck got, the more strange it seemed to everyone—
"Xiang Yi is sitting in the passenger seat, but why does the person in the driver's seat look so much like Xiao?"
"Yeah, I think so too!"
Xie's father and mother were old and their eyes were blurry, so they didn't see anything. However, when they heard what everyone was saying, their hearts tightened. They squeezed to the front to see, and seemed to have seen something. They trotted towards the truck, and the villagers followed suit when they saw this.
"Why are mom and the others running over here?" Lin Xiangyi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said curiously when she saw a large group of people running over from the front.
"It should be my parents who saw me!" Xie Qingxiao said. When the distance between them was about six or seven meters, he simply stopped the car and jumped down with nimble movements.
"It's really Axiao!" When they saw him get off the car, everyone exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
"Ah Xiao!" Xie's father and mother lost control of their emotions and ran faster.
Xie Qingxiao strode up to greet them, frowning and saying, "Why are you running so fast? Be careful not to fall!"
"Dad and mom are worried about you, you little naughty boy~" Xie's mother grabbed Xie Qingxiao's hand tightly, slapped him hard, and burst into tears.
Mr. Xie was not as emotional as Mrs. Xie and was wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Xie Qingxiao couldn't help but be moved. He had never seen parents like this before. He consoled his parents guiltily and said, "I'm sorry, Dad and Mom, I made you worry!"
Father Xie patted Xie Qingxiao on the shoulder and said with relief: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
"Ah Xiao, are you okay?" The village chief asked hurriedly when he saw that Xie's father and mother had finished their warmth.
The rest of the villagers fell silent and looked at Xie Qingxiao expectantly.
"Yes, it's okay!" Xie Qingxiao spoke in the spotlight, looking for Lin Xiangyi, meeting her gaze, and said with a smile: "My wife is very capable, she solved the problem in one night!"
On the way, Lin Xiangyi told Xie Qingxiao about their actions last night. Xie Qingxiao was surprised and distressed when he heard about it.
"Good! Good! Hahaha~" The village chief and everyone burst into deafening laughter, and the originally heavy atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.
Afterwards, Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi were surrounded by the crowd and returned to the Xie family to listen to their story of the whole incident.
