Chapter 338 Carrot Meeting
While Xia Daohua was wearing a nightgown, gritting her teeth and glaring, stealing quickly in Wang's farm, the Xia family was gathered in the old couple's child's room, huddled together, chatting under lamplight and holding a family meeting.
The main topic of discussion at this family meeting was that since Xia Daohua had offended Wang, she had also offended the county magistrate. So, should the whole family live in the countryside or move to the capital with Xia Daohua?
The old couple were the least likely to make a fuss, but they had experienced two large-scale migrations and were not opposed to moving. It was just that they did not express their opinions at the beginning, but planned to see what other family members thought.
The fourth room has a very contradictory attitude towards Xia Daohua. They want to indulge this capable girl, but they also want to take care of the entire family. With so many concerns, they are inevitably a little hesitant.
However, Xia Erlang and Zhou Yunniang stood firmly on Xia Daohua's side.
The two men had a clear plan: as long as Xia Daohua didn't mind them following her around for free meals, they would follow her wherever she went.
In fact, Xia Erlang and Zhou Yunniang had discussed this privately more than once.
Both of them admired Xia Daohua's wild ideas and the fresh ideas that she eventually put into practice.
As for my parents, their intention may not be to cause trouble for me, but their views are there, and it is normal for them to hinder me.
If I really listened to them, I would not even be able to save up this much money.
Sun really disliked Xia Daohua, but she didn't dare to say it.
Erlang had told her several times before that if there was something going on at home, she should not say anything and just follow the crowd. If she really had to express her opinion, she should support her son. Even if he was really wrong, no one could blame her.
Even for the sake of the pocket money Erlang gave her, Sun was unwilling to go against Erlang's wishes.
What's more, although Erlang was disobedient, he was truly filial. Sun was a bit stupid and sometimes acted silly, but she understood how good Erlang was to her.
The couple in the third room expressed their opposition in a down-to-earth manner - they did not intend to take advantage of their niece, nor did they want to be dragged down by her. They just wanted to live a down-to-earth life as ordinary people.
I finally escaped from the war zone and arrived at a quiet place like Jixiang County. I just want to live a peaceful life and don't want to be bothered by it anymore.
I can farm, work, save some money, and raise my two daughters quietly. Then I can marry them off and slowly provide for myself in my old age. That's it.
Although they have no sons, they have many nephews. When they are too old to move, they will not be left without care. When they die, they will not be left without burying them.
As for the incense offerings a hundred years later, I can’t care so much about them.
The couple in the fifth room basically let Cheng have the final say, although when it comes to external speeches, Xia Youliang is always the one who speaks first.
But those who knew the Fifth House knew that the one who really had the final say in the Fifth House was Cheng, the daughter-in-law. The couple had a good relationship, and Cheng gave Xia Youliang enough face in front of others, so what outsiders said was useless.
As expected, Xia Youliang's words were what everyone expected when he spoke, but his words were as piercing as always:
"Daohua is a promising child. Our fifth room will definitely follow Daohua.
Besides, even if she loses money, so what? We can't just eat the meat when she makes money, and then shrink our necks and pretend we don't know when she loses money, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who felt the most uncomfortable were not the second house, but Xia Youtian and Jiang.
If uncles and aunts can be so righteous, how can my own parents be so timid?
Both aunts, Xia Xuejiao and Xia Yujiao, expressed their willingness to give enough support to Xia Daohua - Xia Yujiao did so out of affection, while Xia Xuejiao did so out of her deep understanding of the old couple.
She did not make money with Xia Daohua, nor did she benefit much from Xia Daohua, but she felt that based on the old couple's personalities, they would definitely support this child - otherwise there would be no need to bring up this matter!
Therefore, she stated without hesitation that as an aunt, she would not stand idly by when her niece was in trouble!
Xia Yujiao puts feelings first.
She didn't say how good Xia Daohua was to her, but she knew it very well in her heart.
If she really had to make a choice, Xia Daohua would be ranked first in her opinion, and her weight was completely different from that of others. Even Doctor Hu, who was flirting with her, had to step back a little.
Seeing that everyone's opinions were very clear, the old couple also expressed their views:
"The child is in trouble, we can't just stand by and watch. Since Daohua wants to go to Beijing to make a living, we should naturally follow her.
As for you, if you are willing to follow, let's go together. If you are not willing to follow, just go back to the countryside and farm. Stay down-to-earth in the countryside, don't stand out, don't stand out, and if others bully you, just endure it and wait until the storm is over. "
That night, the light in the old couple's room was on until three o'clock in the morning.
When Xia Daohua returned home, half of the sun had already appeared.
However, the Xia family had been up most of the night and were sleeping soundly, so no one noticed her whereabouts.
Xia Daohua deeply regretted not teaching Wang Silang a lesson that day. Every time she recalled it, she felt angrier and angrier. So she worked almost all night to clean out Wang's two farms, four houses, and five shops.
Finally, Xia Daohua stripped Wang Silang of all his clothes, leaving him with only a strip of cloth - which was used to cover his eyes - and tied him up and hung him on the gate of the county government office.
This is simply a naked provocation!
The biggest suspect is Xia Daohua!
But after her initial anger, Wang calmed down and did not send troops to surround Xia Daohua's house.
Wang's house and shop were patrolled by more than one team of guards day and night to prevent all kinds of scoundrels.
Xia Daohua was able to avoid the eyes and ears of so many people and clear out her own territory without anyone noticing. Could she really do this alone?
Maybe the person behind her has already taken action.
But the person behind her would rather empty his own house than meet with me. It is obvious that he does not want to have direct contact with me.
Therefore, regardless of whether Xia Daohua was held accountable or not, or whether she was dealt with by her boss behind the scenes, her own industry was in trouble...
This is a clear warning!
After careful consideration, Wang decided not to act rashly. Not only did she not cause trouble for Xia Daohua, she also used all her skills to stop the furious County Magistrate Yang.
Xia Daohua waited quietly for Wang to come to her, but she never did.
However, almost all of Daohuaxiang's men showed up, expressing their willingness to follow her to the capital. Among the hundreds of homeless vagrants in "Puji Rescue", more than 70 people were willing to follow Xia Daohua for the rest of their lives.
