【Daddy is awesome! 】
Xia Zhiliao looked at her father who was speaking righteously at this time, and her eyes almost became starry. Then she looked again and saw that her love-brained mother had already become...
In fact, she also thought that her father was a scholar, which was rare in that era. Her father did not have any bad habits. He was not bad to her mother and had a good face. Her mother's obsession was understandable.
How could Dad, without any capital, be favored by the Prime Minister's daughter at first sight?
Since the knowledgeable daughter of the prime minister likes him, it is normal for his own mother to like him too.
If she didn't know the plot of the novel, she would also think that her father was a perfect man.
Xia Jinjun was praised by his daughter and felt very happy. He blinked at his smiling daughter.
"Are you not leaving yet?" Xia Jinjun asked coldly.
Zhang got up from the ground in shame. Now she only had the Xia family as her escape route, and she didn't dare to break up with the Xia family.
"Second brother, I...I didn't mean that. I meant..."
"Hurry up and leave, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you."
"Mom~" Zhang called out again with true feelings.
But Old Mrs. Xia didn't buy it. Without her granddaughter, she was still being kept in the dark by this evil woman. It was lucky that she wasn't strangled to death. How could she let her come back?
"Third brother, fourth brother, what are you still standing there for? Throw her out!"
"No, no, mother, I know you are still angry with me, but please don't get sick from anger, I will be worried, calm down, I will come to see you another day... another day."
"Shut up! If you dare to step into our Xia family again, I will break your legs." Old Mrs. Xia said hatefully.
Zhang knew that if Xia Jinyu and Xia Jinheng took action personally, she would be in trouble, so she left in shame.
"Zhang, you'd better pray that I can't find out how my eldest brother died, otherwise..."
Zhang's heart trembled when she heard this, and she ran away without even turning her head back.
"This bitch, she still has the nerve to come back, she...she even wants to ruin your future, what a bastard!"
Old Mrs. Xia sat on the kang and cursed angrily. Xia Zhiliao was afraid that she was too angry, so he patted her chest to calm her down.
When Old Mrs. Xia saw her granddaughter's nervous and filial look, she felt a little relieved.
"Mom, I was just saying it casually, but looking at Zhang's expression, my brother's death might really be related to her." Xia Jinjun said firmly.
Xia Jinxiu was also filled with resentment, "Second brother, is there any need to say this? It's true from the look on her face. This vicious woman killed my eldest brother and still has the nerve to stay in our Xia family. She is so despicable and shameless."
"Second brother, even if it was Zhang and that wild man who did it, so many years have passed. What can we do? There is no evidence." Xia Jinheng sighed and punched the wall angrily.
Although Xia Jinjun is a scholar, he doesn't understand this aspect.
Everyone was thinking of a solution, and Xia Zhiliao was also thinking of one.
This plot did not exist in the novel and she had no reference, so she could only think of a solution on her own.
[Got it, I have a solution! ]
Everyone looked at Xia Zhiliao, but she was thinking seriously at the moment and didn't notice at all.
[If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. When she comes again, I'll scare her with my uncle's ghost and see how she reacts.]
No one knows whether this method will work, but Zhang has just left and he probably won’t come back in the short term!
Besides, the person has been dead for so many years, so even if we want to find out the truth, a few days won’t be a big deal.
Xia Zhiliao rubbed the old lady's legs again. Old lady Xia felt much better and almost wanted to go downstairs to show off her granddaughter's cooking skills.
[It turns out that grandma can be so cute too. Old child, little child, we are all children! ]
At night, Mrs. Xia did not plan to wash her face because of her mobility problems. Farmers were not so particular.
Unexpectedly, Xia Chen came in with a basin of hot water.
When Old Mrs. Xia saw this scene, she remembered what her little granddaughter said, that after she collapsed on the kang, it was her second daughter-in-law who took care of her excrement and urine. Her heart softened a little.
People are all made of flesh and blood.
After wiping her face, Old Lady Xia asked Xia Chenshi to leave, but Xia Chenshi did not move. Old Lady Xia was angry at her cowardly attitude and wanted to scold her, but she restrained her tone and said, "What else? You've worked all day, aren't you tired? Why don't you go back and rest?"
"Mom... I... you haven't washed your feet yet."
Old Lady Xia sighed, "You, you can't get anything out of me. You obviously have good intentions, so just say it. You know I have a quick temper, and I get angry when I see you grunting and groaning."
Xia Chen was stunned. Was her mother-in-law explaining something to her?
"If you are like this, how can Jinjun become an official in the future?"
"Mother...I..."
"What are you talking about? He will be an official in the future and a respectable person. You can't be bad, otherwise you will be laughed at. How can an official's wife be like you? Just speak openly. Do you think I am a cannibal?"
"No, no, no, mother, you don't eat people."
"That's it. I'm not saying anything bad about you, but any other mother-in-law would look down on someone like you." Old Mrs. Xia spoke from the bottom of her heart.
After washing the old lady's feet, Xia Chen went back to her room to rest, but she couldn't help smiling.
Xia Jinjun seldom saw his wife like this. In fact, from this perspective, his wife was still very pretty, though a little haggard from working day and night. But when he thought that all this was for him, he felt a little more love for her.
"What are you laughing at?"
Xia Chen pursed her lips and said, "I...I feel like our mother seems different. She treats me better than before."
"Our mother wasn't bad to you before. She just had the habit of speaking loudly and harshly," Xia Jinjun explained.
[Grandma is really a good grandma and mother-in-law now, I like her. 】
Xia Jinjun stole a glance at his daughter. He waited for a long time but her daughter didn't praise him. He felt a mixture of disappointment and grievance.
It seems he has to show his loyalty.
"I'm not bad to you, right? Zhile, daddy is a good daddy, right?"
Xia Chen naturally nodded.
Xia Zhiliao smiled perfunctorily, but was secretly complaining in his heart.
[Daddy, it's still a little bit disappointing. It's Bai Huiru, and it's a rich girl in the capital. Let's see how you perform! ]
Xia Jinjun's expression changed slightly, "Wife, what happened with Bai Huiru..."
"Jinjun, I believe you, you don't need to explain."
[My love-brained mother is hopeless! Just wait for him to come to your house, and you will know! He wants to steal your man, live in your home, sleep with your man, and beat your children. Woohoo, I don’t want a stepmother! ]
When Xia Chen heard this, she sat up straight, as if facing a powerful enemy. That wouldn't do!
