Chapter 279 Sooner or later she will make trouble
Shao Yunhan and Shao Yunlu really like coming to the Xia family. The atmosphere in the Xia family is much better than their own family. Their grandparents are kind, and their uncle and aunt are also very good to them.
Although Xia Ying rarely spoke to them, she was always smiling when she saw them. Although Xia Yi's words were harsh, they could feel that he had no ill will towards them.
In the Xia family, they could do whatever they wanted, but it was different when they returned home. Their mother had too many expectations of them. They had to be elegant in eating, talking, walking, and even sleeping. If they didn't do what she wanted, they would be scolded.
At this moment they are in the study upstairs. Xia Ying is about to graduate from university and will study abroad. She is studying English day and night during this period and is now reading an English book.
Xia Yi was also holding a book. Shao Yunhan walked over and took a look at it, then seemed to be struck by a needle and stood there motionless.
Xia Yi turned his head to look at her, then lowered his head to read again, saying, "Why are you standing there?"
"How did you get this book?" Shao Yunhan asked, pointing at the book in Xia Yi's hand. It was "Whose Youth Is Not Reckless" by Nian Doubao.
Without even looking up, Xia Yi said, "Why can't I have this book? I heard it was written by a kid about your age, but he's better than you. What's all this stuff you wrote? It's so pretentious at such a young age."
Shao Yunhan knew Xia Yi's words were always harsh, but what she couldn't stand the most was being compared to her and told she was better than her. With tears in her eyes, she said, "Xia Yi, how could you say that to me?"
"Xia Yi? Did you call me Xia Yi?" Xia Yi turned her head to look at her, "Look at what your aunt has taught you."
"I'm going to tell grandma that you bullied me." Shao Yunhan stamped his feet, but Xia Yi remained unmoved. He added, "Go ahead and tell her."
"you"
At this time, Xia Yuan's voice came from below, "Shao Yunlu, Shao Yunhan, what are you still doing up there? Can't you see that you are all unwelcome? Let's go home!"
Shao Yunhan looked back at Shao Yunlu. She didn't want to go home, even if Xia Yi's words were unpleasant. But Shao Yunlu had already stood up, and she heard her uncle's dissatisfied voice from downstairs. She could only follow Shao Yunlu downstairs.
After the two left, Xia Ying looked at Xia Yi and said, "Can't you speak more nicely? She'll go down and tell grandma about you. Auntie might be unhappy again."
"She can be happy or not." Xia Yi said indifferently, "It's all because of grandma and the others who spoiled her. They said she suffered a lot when she was young, and then she was taken back home when she was three. What kind of hardship did she suffer? We don't even know where the real hardship is."
"You can't say this in front of grandma. She can't stand hearing this the most." Xia Ying said seriously.
"I know." Xia Yi lowered his head and continued reading, saying, "Sooner or later she'll get into trouble."
Xia Ying was stunned for a moment after hearing his words before returning to her book. She felt that Xia Yuan looked smart, but was actually very stupid, and even if she got into trouble, it wouldn't be a big deal. She actually hoped that Xia Yuan would get into trouble, not too big or too small, so that the elders in the family would be able to punish her.
Downstairs, Xia Yuan left angrily with Shao Yunhan and Shao Yunlu. Old Mrs. Xia covered her chest and said, "How did you develop such a personality?"
Xia Zhengming poured her a glass of water and watched her drink a few sips before saying, "She's already forty years old. You don't have to worry about her anymore."
"You say you don't care, but you really do?" Old Lady Xia put down her water cup. "I've thought about it. With her personality, it's a good idea for her to marry Shao Yuhe. If she marries Tian Shikang, something terrible will happen."
Tian Shikang was originally chosen by Old Lady Xia and was about to marry him to Xia Yuan, but Xia Yuan refused to agree, saying that Tian Shikang was too ordinary. Now Tian Shikang holds real power, and given Xia Yuan's personality, if she married Tian Shikang, it might cause a big trouble.
Xia Zhengming thought it would be a good idea for Xia Yuan to marry Tian Shikang. Tian Shikang was a ruthless man, perfect for teaching Xia Yuan a lesson. But it was useless to say that now, so Xia Yuan decided to just make a scene with her family. She liked to act pretentiously outside, but it wouldn't cause any big trouble.
Xia Yuan and her two daughters left the government compound. They hadn't walked far when they saw Gu Siqing and a tall, bulky man in his forties standing on the side of the road, talking. They looked like they were father and daughter.
Xia Yuan narrowed her eyes, then asked Shao Yunlu to take Shao Yunhan home. She looked at Gu Siqing and the man from afar. Is this family moving to Kyoto? Isn't it better to stay at home? Why do they have to come to Kyoto?
After a while, two girls in their twenties came out of a house on the street and started talking with Gu Siqing and the man. As they talked, they pointed at the house. Were they looking to rent a place?
That’s not right. This house is not suitable for living, but it is suitable for doing business.
Xia Yuan looked at the clothes of the few people carefully again. The styles of the clothes were all the latest models. She had never even seen the styles of clothes worn by the two older girls, but from her point of view, they were definitely not cheap.
She clenched her fists and rode away. If she wanted to know about their situation, she could just come back and ask the owner of the house.
Gu Siqing and the others were unaware that they were being spied on. They were discussing whether this house was suitable. The location was naturally good, surrounded by government compounds, government agencies, and large factory staff quarters.
The residents in this area have high incomes and decent living standards. Gu Jianguo, however, found the house a bit small, at just over 100 square meters. It could be a regular small supermarket, but for the first three stores he opened in Kyoto, which he wanted to create as models, this space was a bit small.
Gu Siqing looked at the house next to this one. It was a cloth shop, but business was average. She whispered to Gu Erhui, "Go talk to the owner."
Gu Erhui immediately understood what she meant. A house over 100 square meters is small, but if two houses over 100 square meters were connected, it would definitely be quite large. She walked over and chatted with the boss for a while. After about ten minutes, she came out and told Gu Siqing and the others, "The house belongs to the boss, but he has no intention of selling or renting it out."
Gu Jianguo automatically ignored the latter part of the sentence and said, "Let's wait and see. If there's nothing suitable, we can talk to him about buying a house."
I'm not selling because I'm not impressed by the price. If I had enough money, I would definitely sell it. It's okay to spend a little more to find a suitable store.
After they finished their conversation, Zhang Zijun drove over. He had been away for a while for something. They got in the car and drove around the streets of Kyoto again. They had basically reserved three tables before going home for dinner.
One is near the government compound, another is near the university town, and another is near the Forbidden City. All three locations have good foot traffic. You just need to carefully consider the property.
