By the time everyone heard the commotion, it was too late.
Xia Anhua's face was contorted with rage as she charged towards Xia Anyan, a switchblade in her hand.
Grandpa Xia and his entourage turned pale with fright.
However, it was too late to stop it.
After all, no matter how fast they react, they can't outrun a young man.
At this moment, Gu Shen jumped out.
He immediately raised his foot and kicked Xia Anhua, yelling, "You deserve to die!"
After Xia Anhua was kicked away, the captain realized what was happening, waved his hand, and ordered his men to take her away immediately.
If she succeeds here, he can forget about being the captain.
Thinking about it carefully, he felt sweat breaking out on his forehead.
"Capture her; we can't let her hurt anyone else."
Then, he looked at Gu Shen and Xia Anyan.
The two men's faces had turned very pale, as if they could drip ink at any moment.
The captain had originally intended to say a few words with a joking smile, but seeing the two of them like this, he couldn't bring himself to say anything.
For no other reason than that he couldn't afford to offend Gu Shen because of his status.
“Captain,” Grandpa Xia said with a dark face as he walked over, “What she did was too dangerous. She was trying to kill my granddaughter. We can’t let her stay in the brigade anymore, nor can we let her go to the countryside.”
The captain's heart skipped a beat.
Could this old man really be that heartless?
Although he didn't have concrete evidence, based on his many years of experience, Xia Anhua must be the eldest daughter of the Xia family.
Although they are not much different in age, their bloodline is undeniable.
Xia Anyan's mother passed away a long time ago, and Zhou Xiuning has been by her eldest son's side all these years.
This child is also well-fed and fair-skinned, much better than the girls in their village.
Wow...you're really willing to spend that much?
"Old man, you..." The captain wanted to say something more to persuade him.
But Grandpa Xia has already made his decision, and that won't change.
Xia Anhua panicked.
She thought the old man would forgive her because she was his granddaughter.
Can……
"Grandpa, Grandpa... I know I was wrong, Grandpa, please don't treat me like this, Grandpa... I really know I was wrong, I'm willing to apologize, I'm willing to go to the countryside, Grandpa..."
Xia Anhua struggled frantically, but to no avail.
Not only that, but they were also dragged towards the entrance of the brigade.
Xia Chengzong had been hiding in a corner the whole time. He was very anxious and angry when he saw his sister being taken away, but he didn't dare to stand up.
Grandpa... he really will send them all in.
Damn Xia Anyan, damn it, damn it, damn it!
After Xia Anhua was dragged away, Old Master Xia returned home with his men.
The brigade leader wanted to follow them in, but was stopped outside by Grandpa Xia with a look of disdain: "Brigade leader, we won't eat at your house today. It's the middle of the day, you should hurry up and go to the fields to keep an eye on the workers."
"Oh, right, this is for you. Xia Anhua, that girl, has been spoiled by her mother all these years. Go ask her if she wants to be sent down to the countryside or obediently stay in the prison. Let her choose for herself. Don't blame me, as her grandfather, for not giving her a choice."
When the captain saw the small cloth bag that Grandpa Xia had slipped into his hand, he could tell what was inside just by feeling its thickness.
He was actually very happy inside, but on the surface, he still showed a conflicted expression, and...
"Old man, what are you doing? With our relationship, aren't you being too formal?"
"And another thing," he said, leaning closer to the old man and lowering his voice so only the two of them could hear, "If I'm not mistaken, Xia Anhua is your son's biological daughter, right? You... are you really that willing to part with her?"
"Whether it's being sent to the countryside or being confined to a prison, it won't be good for her reputation. If anything happens to her, this child will be completely ruined!"
Grandpa Xia glanced at the brigade leader indifferently: "Brigade leader, I don't even acknowledge my own son, why would I acknowledge a bastard child born to another woman?"
“I’ve said it before: I’ve only ever recognized one daughter-in-law in my life, and that was Ayan’s mother. Now that she’s gone, I have no other daughter-in-law.”
Grandpa Xia spoke with a firm and powerful voice, without a trace of reluctance in his eyes.
At this moment, the captain finally realized that the old man was serious.
He sighed and nodded.
Grandpa Xia glanced at him, somewhat disdainfully: "This is for your hard work. You've been working hard as the brigade leader these past few days. Those two have been causing trouble at your place all the time, so they probably haven't had a good rest either."
"Also, my granddaughter and grandson-in-law are going to have a banquet here, and I'll need your help then."
The captain smiled and agreed, then left.
Judging from his scurrying away, you could tell how happy he was.
After watching the person leave, Grandpa Xia was about to close the door.
Xia Chengzong suddenly ran out.
Grandpa Xia was so frightened that he tried to close the door, but the boy actually knelt down in front of him: "Grandpa, Grandpa, I am your only grandson. I don't ask for anything else, just give me some money and some things to use when I go to the countryside, okay?"
This kid is smart; he knows he can't force things, so he starts playing the victim.
The old man has always been a man who cannot tolerate any dissent, and as he just said, he can even disown his own son, let alone these grandchildren who are dragging him down.
This Xia Chengzong has bullied his beloved granddaughter quite a bit. Although he doesn't live with these children, it doesn't mean he doesn't know.
"Alright, get up now."
After Grandpa Xia finished speaking, Xia Chengzong thought that he had agreed, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. He even said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
But Grandpa Xia raised his hand and said, "Don't rush to call me grandpa. I didn't say I wanted to acknowledge you as my grandson."
"You don't need to rush to deny what your parents did and say you didn't know anything. I'm just old, not so old that I don't know anything. When your family wanted to leave, leaving your eldest sister and me behind, you should have thought this day would come."
"Now that you've chosen to obediently go to the countryside, I believe you can take all the property your parents left you with you. Go find your parents and keep those things safe while they're still here. That way, you can at least live a few years in peace."
"After you go to the countryside, learn from the people in the brigade, and don't be like your selfish parents. If you can find a suitable girl, you can start a family on your own. You don't need to bring her back to me or tell me. Just do whatever you want."
