Xia Daohua didn't know that what Zhu said to her were basically excuses.
Yinhua was indeed sent by Liu to live with her aunt.
But it wasn't about marriage at all.
It was because the family had set up a trap for Jinhua to control Dai Sanlang, and Liu didn't want Yinhua to be present.
Liu had always favored Jinhua because of her striking appearance, while Yinhua was quite ordinary. However, Yinhua was still Liu's biological daughter.
Even though she couldn't devote as much energy to Yinhua as she did to Jinhua, Liu still loved Yinhua.
Liu sent Yinhua away because she was afraid that if things got out of hand, she would be frightened. If Yinhua was frightened by this and started to tremble around men, how would she go out in the future?
Xia Daohua, unaware of the true situation, took Zhu's words seriously, and was inevitably worried about the old couple's future.
The elderly couple don’t have to worry about their retirement.
After all, they had more than one son. Among so many children, there would always be a few who were filial.
But how could the old couple swallow this bitterness of sadness and disappointment? Even if Xia Youtian and others were filial, they couldn't feel sad for the old couple!
While Xia Daohua was in a daze, Zhu carefully rescued her sleeve and went to the kitchen with the medicine bowl to work.
Xia Daohua came to her senses and found that she was the only one left in the main room. She ignored the table littered with cups and plates, and slowly carried the sleeping A Liu to Liu's hands in the bedroom.
After putting the child down, she turned and walked out the door, heading towards Jinhua's boudoir.
Xia Daohua didn't even turn her head in response to Liu's greeting. She just waved her hand casually and said, "You guys go to sleep first. I'll go see Sister Jinhua."
Jinhua's toes were wrapped with white cotton cloth, forming a bulge. The color of the ointment seeped through the cotton cloth, making it look a little dirty.
Xia Daohua suppressed the smile that was about to burst out and looked at Jinhua.
At this moment, Jinhua was not crying as sadly as before, but there was a particularly clear indifference in her expression.
Xia Daohua felt that Jinhua was also a little strange.
If she had cried so hard when her toes were bumped, wouldn't she have been sad when the Dai family bullied her? Why did she act so concerned about Dai Sanlang during dinner?
As a single person since birth, Xia Daohua had never been attracted to anyone in her previous life and had never tasted the magic of love. She really couldn't understand how people could be so abused and yet enjoy it.
Lihua leaned on the headboard of the kang, her cheeks flushed. She didn't take off her clothes, shoes, or hair, and just covered herself with a quilt. She fell asleep like that.
Although she looked messy while sleeping, she was still quite cute and adorable.
Xia Daohua couldn't help but think of Xiangyun getting drunk and Begonia sleeping in Dream of the Red Chamber, and smiled slightly.
But Jinhua said to Xia Daohua coldly, "Daohua, what's wrong? I hurt my foot. Are you in a good mood?"
Xia Daohua rolled her eyes at Jinhua:
"Sister Jinhua, you worry so much every day, aren't you tired?
I just couldn't help but smile when I saw my sister sleeping soundly. It's not because your foot is injured?
Besides, your injury is just a minor one. There are no broken bones, no broken skin, and no bleeding. You just hit the table leg and your toe is a little swollen. It's not a big deal.
If it were in the old house, I wouldn't even need to see a doctor, I could just take a rest.
If it happened to Sanlang or Silang, they would just let out a "hiss" and continue playing with such a small injury. Who would be so delicate and fragile?
You even cried because of this!
You're already a married woman, yet you still act like a three-year-old kid. Aren't you ashamed? "
Jinhua was so angry that her breathing became heavy and her nose almost tilted to the side.
"Daohua, you're really becoming more and more outrageous. I just said one thing to you, and you've already lashed out at me like this! Do you still see me as your sister?"
Xia Daohua laughed and said, "Sister, I'm telling you all this because I have you in my eyes! If I didn't have you in my heart, I wouldn't bother to talk to you! When have you ever seen me talk to someone I hate?"
What Xia Daohua said was not entirely untrue. She did not have any eyes for Jinhua. She simply wanted to pick on Jinhua.
Jinhua's particularly cold look just now was directed at Lihua.
Xia Daohua saw this clearly and instantly decided that she would not go back tonight and would stay here.
Who knows if Jinhua will go crazy in the middle of the night?
What if she wants to bully Lihua?
Xia Daohua didn't know that she had hit the jackpot by accident.
Jinhua hinted and hinted at her going back to Zhu's house, but Xia Daohua ignored her suggestion. Finally, she told Jinhua plainly, "Lihua is a weak drinker and is drunk, and you're injured and can't move around easily. I'm worried about you two living alone in this house."
Jinhua was so anxious she almost cursed: "This is my home, what are you worried about? Who are you worried about?"
Xia Daohua stared at Jinhua until she felt a little flustered, then she replied:
"Lihua kicks off the quilt in the middle of the night, can you cover her? If you want to drink water in the middle of the night, can Lihua pour it for you?
A Liu is still young, not only can he not take care of you, but he also needs his sister-in-law to look after you at night!
As for your aunt, she's already this old and has been working hard all day. Isn't she tired? Do you have the heart to let her take care of you?
The Dai sisters are guests. We in the Xia family can’t be so rude as to let the guests take care of the host, right?
My uncle is not young anymore, and his health is not good. It is not convenient for him to look after you at night!"
Xia Daohua didn't mention Dai Sanlang, and neither did Jinhua.
After all, there is still Lihua in this house.
She couldn't reveal her conspiracy in front of the victim's family.
But Xia Daohua refused to leave, and Jinhua couldn't help getting anxious.
Soon, seeing that Xia Daohua had not returned yet, Liu was worried that things would not go smoothly in the evening, so she came to look for her.
Seeing that Xia Daohua and Jinhua were confronting each other, he persuaded Xia Daohua to go back.
Xia Daohua already had an idea at this time.
Although she didn't dare to think that the eldest family was so shameless, she had seen the dark side of human nature.
She was worried about Lihua.
Liu held Xia Daohua's arm tightly and dragged her forward. They returned to Zhu's room together. After entering the room, she bolted the door directly and told Xia Daohua and Zhu to go to bed quickly, saying that they had to get up early.
Zhu was about to clean the dining table, but Liu stopped her:
"There's no point in cleaning up all that stuff. You've been tired all day. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Zhu widened her eyes in surprise, and seeing that Liu was already impatient, she had no choice but to agree meekly.
Seeing Liu's behavior, Xia Daohua became more certain of her guess.
The anger in her heart could no longer be stopped from rising.
Xia Daohua closed her eyes, bit her lips, and reached her hand into the space.
