Chapter 7: Do something big to vent Dad's anger
Mother Xia cooked until two days before her departure. Knowing her daughter's level, she taught her while cooking outside during the day, and simmered rice and steamed buns in the space. Even at night, she would drag her to the space to continue steaming buns and making dumplings until she was too sleepy to open her eyes.
In Xia Wanyang's space villa, Xia's mother specially cleaned out a room to store the cooked dishes. She put them in boxes one by one and wrote what was inside on the boxes. Apart from anything else, if Xia Wanyang ate these things alone, there would be no problem for her to eat them for three years!
The day before departure, all the seeds that Xia's mother had someone collect arrived by mail. Xia Wanyang was once again surprised by her mother's skill, as she could fit an egg in her mouth.
Mother Xia lifted her chin and closed her mouth. "Are you so surprised, you old-fashioned guy? Your mother is in her forties and knows hundreds of people, if not thousands. Who doesn't have a few rural relatives? What's the big deal about collecting some seeds?"
Xia Wanyang heard the old man's words again within a few days, and the corners of her mouth twitched, "Mom, you always said that I was like a delicate little doll, am I really unsophisticated now?"
"I said you are ignorant, not because you look unsophisticated! Tsk, why aren't you as smart as me? Maybe it's all because of your looks!"
After saying that, he shook his head and walked forward.
Xia Wanyang: “…”
At night, the mother and daughter entered the space together. Xia Wanyang used her consciousness to plant all the seeds in the ground, and then irrigated the ground with water from the stream. Mother Xia started to make noodles with soybean paste again. As soon as she finished cutting the noodles, Xia Wanyang pulled her out of the kitchen, "Okay, mom, you've done enough. You've worked hard these days. Let's go, I'll take you to the stream to soak. You'll feel different!"
When the black mud first came out, Xia's mother was so scared that she jumped up. Later she realized that it was discharged from the body. After washing it thoroughly, the mental tension, arm soreness, and lack of sleep in the past few days were all gone. Even the old problem of back pain seemed to have been completely cured!
"Hey, it would be nice if you could give this to your dad, too. Your dad has too many hidden injuries, and sometimes he even frowns when he sleeps."
Xia Wanyang immediately found a few large vats and filled them with water, then used her mind to put them into her room, "Isn't this good? After I leave, find an opportunity to let Dad soak in the water too. You can tell Dad the truth or just fool him, it all depends on Mom's opinion!"
Mother Xia nodded, "We still have to tell your dad the truth, but we have to wait for some time. That guy has been staring at your dad every day, which has made your dad very upset. It will be bad if he is distracted again after I tell him this!"
Xia Wanyang blinked her eyes and said, "I've already gone to the countryside, why is there still someone staring at Dad? Why is this person so annoying!"
"He's competing with your dad for the position. If he steps on your dad, won't he have a chance?" Xia's mother said with a sigh.
Xia Wanyang leaned over and whispered a few words to her mother, but her mother shook her head and said, "No, it's too dangerous!"
Xia Wanyang picked up a stone from the grass and squeezed it gently, and the stone turned into slag.
Mother Xia: “…”
"I soak this every day, and somehow my strength has become so great!"
Mother Xia was very happy. Her strength had increased, and her daughter now had another protection besides the secret garden!
In the end, she couldn't persuade her daughter. The mother and daughter took advantage of the night to quietly come to Xu's house not far from home. Xia's mother stood not far away to keep watch. The houses in the compound all had the same structure. Xia Wanyang took out the tools and pried the door open without anyone noticing. As soon as she entered the house and closed the door, she heard a stern voice, "Who!"
Xia Wanyang hurried into the space. Xu Zhengguo turned on the light, but there was nothing there. He checked the door and went back to sleep!
Xia Wanyang came out of the space and went straight to the study. Just as she closed the door and was about to show her skills, Xu Zhengguo came out again.
Xia Wanyang had no choice but to hide in the space again, but at this time she saw Xu Zhengguo take out a small box, open it and take a look, then carefully put it back to its original place before going back to sleep.
Xia Wanyang immediately understood that the thing that could make him so frightened that he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night must be the most important!
"Oh my daughter, you're finally out!" Xia Wanyang covered her mother's mouth and ran back home.
After returning to the house, Xia Wanyang put the small box on the bed, raised her eyebrows and looked like she was asking for praise.
Mother Xia touched her little face and said, "Oh, my precious daughter has grown up and can help mom and dad solve problems. What's the point of raising a son? He is just here to collect debts!"
After praising for a while, the mother and daughter opened the box, which turned out to be a bunch of letters. When Xia's mother opened the first letter, she was so angry that she trembled! "Xu Zhengguo, this bastard, he would do anything to get promoted. He even dared to collude with the secret agents to set a trap for your father!"
"Don't be angry, Mom. Isn't this the evidence? Now that these are in Dad's hands, he can do whatever he wants to him! Tell Dad to wait two days before handing them in, so that he can worry for a few days! He probably won't be able to sleep if such important things are lost!" Xia Wanyang said as she calmed her mother down.
Mother Xia slowed down and said, "Yes, let your father study these letters carefully, and then stimulate him a few times from time to time, so that he can also taste the pain!"
"That's right!"
The next day, Xia Wanyang and her mother got up early. Today was the day she was going to the countryside. The train was in the afternoon, and Xia's father specially changed her ticket to a sleeper. The two-day train ride must be extremely boring, so she deliberately got up early so that she could catch up on sleep before getting on the train!
Xia Wanyang took out a box of big unity, "Mom, keep these for emergencies. I know your salary is enough, but if there is any emergency and you need money, I won't be able to come back. Don't bury them in the same place as before, just spread them around the house. I will lock the room when I leave, you take the key, and it will be convenient for you to take it when you need it urgently!"
Mother Xia nodded in agreement. The mother and daughter hid a lot of them under the bed, in the closet, and in the desk drawer. In the end, there were still some left to one side. "I will take apart the thick quilt at home and sew these into the quilt when I have time!"
It’s terribly cold in the countryside of Northeast China. “Put away the thick quilt and find a chance to use it before winter. It’s inconvenient for you to carry it alone in the car. Travel light and just take the necessities with you. I mailed the mattress a few days ago, so you can probably pick it up directly when you arrive!”
After packing up, Xia Wanyang was dumbfounded. What happened to the agreement to travel light?
What the hell are these three big packages and one big box?
Mother Xia touched her nose and said, "Why don't you put away the clothes and other things first and carry the empty box. No one will open it to look at it anyway, so you can take whatever you want when the time comes. Take a package and put some light things in it!"
The family had breakfast together, and Father Xia also took half a day off. "My daughter, Dad will drive you this afternoon. Check carefully for missing things and buy whatever is missing. Don't be afraid to spend money. Dad can support you. I have already called my comrade in Shen City. If you have time, go visit him. He will take good care of you. Here is the address and phone number. Keep it!" After saying that, he handed Xia Wanyang a piece of paper.
Big brother Xia Shuqian gently hugged Xia Wanyang and said, "Little sister, I can't take a leave, so I won't send you off this afternoon. Your sister-in-law will send you off. You should write home often. Remember my office phone number and call me directly if you have anything!"
"Oh, what do you need to send me? There's no need to deduct my salary for taking leave! It's not like I won't come back. I heard that people in Northeast China stay indoors during the winter. Who knows, maybe if I behave well, I can go home for the New Year this year~! Don't invite my eldest sister-in-law, and don't invite my second brother and his wife either. Just let my parents send me off. Who wants to be sentimental with you at the train station!" Xia Wanyang said with disgust.
Second brother Xia Shuhan tapped her little nose and said, "You are so skinny like a monkey, but you behave well enough to go home for the New Year. It's good enough that we don't deduct your work points!"
The two sisters-in-law each stuffed an envelope into her hand. The second sister-in-law Liu Yue said, "Yangyang, my eldest sister-in-law and I have collected a lot of tickets for you these days. Keep them well! If I hadn't been married, I would have accompanied you to the countryside this time because of our childhood relationship. You must be very careful when you go there alone!"
Xia Wanyang smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law Yueyue, marrying my second brother has been your dream since childhood. Even if you don't marry him now, can you rest assured to come with me?"
Xia's father, mother, eldest brother, sister-in-law and second brother were all amused. Liu Yue's face turned red. "You little rascal, you are making fun of me! Humph, I won't pay attention to you! Give me back the envelope!"
Xia Wanyang put her hands behind her back and said, "What envelope? I didn't see it! If you don't go to work, your salary will be deducted. Let's go!"
