Chapter 19 The Village Chief Knows Xia's Family Affairs
After talking for a while, Zhang Daqing took out the pension money given by the Xia family and said, "This is the pension money given by Brother Xia's family, one hundred coins. They told you to give it over there." After that, Zhang Daqing pointed in the direction of the Xia family.
The village chief sighed again, "Ah, what's going on? Such a good son is being tortured. None of the two raised at home are capable of anything."
The village chief took the silver and counted it in front of Daqing.
"One hundred coins, no more, no less."
"Yes, Brother Xia is a filial person." Zhang Daqing sighed.
The village chief's granddaughter Xia Xiu and grandson Xia Kang gathered in front of the car early in the morning. When they saw a lot of food being taken out of the car, they were so happy.
The youngest son of the Xia family has been staying at home these days because of school.
Daqing also saw his brother-in-law.
He was still somewhat dissatisfied with his brother-in-law, but he didn't want to ask too much about his father-in-law's family affairs.
"Grandpa, grandpa, there are candies. I want to eat some." Even though Xia Xiu is a girl, she is still a little princess in the village chief's house.
As you can tell from the name, you know, in ancient times, single words were valuable.
Xia Xiu, this name is very expensive.
Hearing his granddaughter's cry, the village chief put away the unhappiness on his face and said, "Okay, eat, eat it all. You must remember that these things are sent by your uncle and Uncle Xia Feng's family. You should be grateful, okay?"
The village chief has done an excellent job in educating his children.
"No need to thank me. These candies were bought by Xiaotong. My elder sister saw that she bought so many candies, so we didn't buy any this year." After saying that, Daqing took out two red envelopes from his clothes.
"This is the New Year's money given to you by your aunt and uncle. We hope our Xiuxiu and Kangkang will be healthy and become more and more lovely." After saying that, she put two red envelopes in the hands of the two.
Xia Qingshan didn't want to say no, but he glanced at his father and when he saw his father nod, he didn't say much.
He took his wife and carried the things on the ground into the main room.
Xia Zhixue is a smart man. He has always known that his brother-in-law doesn't like him very much. How can he not blame himself in his heart?
If I had been more successful, I wouldn't have been a burden to my father, elder brother and sister-in-law.
Daqing was also a good person. He took out a bigger red envelope and said, "Zhixue, this is a little gift from your sister. You should keep it and study hard. You will take the exam soon. You must pass it this year and don't let your parents worry anymore."
He did not deny that studying was hard.
But is it harder than making a living?
He is a man who has experienced hardship and knows how hard it is to make a living.
My brother-in-law had such a good opportunity, but he failed the exam last year. It’s really unfair.
"Thank you, elder sister, thank you, brother-in-law. I will definitely pass the exam next year." He will never let his family down again.
"Okay, but don't put too much pressure on yourself." As a brother-in-law, Zhang Daqing can only say and do this much.
It was impossible for him to use money to support his brother-in-law.
Besides, his father-in-law would never do such a thing.
The family was talking and laughing. After Zhang Daqing had lunch at Xia's house, he drove the ox cart back to town.
The village chief drank some wine at noon, and when he woke up, he called the people from the Xia family over.
Hand over the pension money given by Xia Feng to them in front of the villagers.
He also said some good things about Xia Feng to everyone.
The affairs of the Xia family have never been settled in the village. Now when they heard that Xia Feng had someone send back his pension money, everyone was very envious.
…
Xia Feng's family had no idea what was happening in the village.
Their business is getting better and better now.
Business gets better before the Chinese New Year.
"Dad, I'll go with you tomorrow." The school is on vacation, and Xiaoxuan is now helping to make braised food at home every day.
"Sure. Tomorrow is a good time to ask your elder sister to prepare some food for the New Year at home." Father Xia ate his meal in big mouthfuls, chewing while replying to his son.
Xiaoxuan is a capable and strong man, so he can do this job.
Strangely enough, Xia Feng felt that he had become stronger and stronger recently, and he had endless energy all over his body.
After thinking about it for a long time without figuring it out, he stopped thinking about it, but he never stopped when he saw Xiaoxuan practicing boxing and kicking every day.
"Xiaoxuan, help your father collect money and pass the oil paper tomorrow. Don't touch the knife." Xia Yutong was a little worried about Xiaoxuan.
That knife is not light.
It was difficult for her to swing it herself.
"Well, I know. The knife is very heavy. I can lift it, but I can't use it." Xiaoxuan knows himself very well.
When Rongrong saw her brothers and sisters talking and laughing, she couldn't help but shout.
"I want to go, I want to go." Rongrong's body recovered after being nourished by the water in Xia Yutong's space.
Although he didn't grow taller, his speech became clearer.
"Rongrong, be good. Can you just stay at home and accompany your elder sister?" Xia Yutong put down the dishes in her hands and took Rongrong from her mother's arms.
"Sister will make you something delicious at home, okay?" Xia Yutong coaxed.
"No, give me money, give me money." Rongrong pointed at the cloth bag on her father and shouted.
The childish words immediately made everyone laugh.
"Haha, our Rongrong has become a money-grubber." Xiaoxuan walked up and kissed Rongrong on the face, jokingly saying.
Father Xia also said happily: "Good job, from now on I will count all the money I earn for you, okay?"
Mother Xia's reaction was stunned, but her eyes gradually became focused.
She turned her gaze to Rongrong and started laughing too.
Everyone saw these reactions and felt happy.
The Xia family had a very happy and rich New Year's celebration in the town.
On New Year's Eve, every household in the town set off firecrackers.
The Xia family was no exception, and Xia Yutong also bought firecrackers.
Xiaoxuan was always thinking about it, so early in the morning, after practicing his exercises, he picked up some firecrackers and started playing with them in the yard.
The sound of "bang bang" echoed in the courtyard, scaring away the bad luck and welcoming the god of fortune. Xia's mother was unable to do any housework due to health reasons. Xia's father didn't want his daughter to be too tired, so he got up early to help her make breakfast.
After the meal was ready, the whole family sat at the table, feeling very emotional.
"Sister, our family will get better and better in the future." Xiaoxuan still couldn't let go of the past.
Father Xia understood what he meant, "Don't worry, Dad will definitely let you all live a good life in the future."
"Don't talk about this, let's eat, Dad and Mom." Xia Yutong didn't want to cause any unpleasantness during the New Year, so she hurried to talk to Xini.
After the meal, Father Xia took out three red envelopes.
"Xiaotong, you have worked so hard in the past six months. Although you are the eldest sister, you are only eight years old. I am sorry for you. Don't worry, I will never let my dear daughter suffer again." After saying that, he handed her a big red envelope.
Xia Yutong took it without caring at all, "Thank you, Dad. We are all family, it doesn't matter whether it's hard or not."
Father Xia smiled and nodded, "Yes, we are a family."
