Chapter 853: Nephew, you are blushing
The Xia family was talking about Tang Bao, while the Su family was happily discussing the promotion of Magistrate Xia.
The two families had a close relationship, and the Su family was naturally very happy that Magistrate Xia was able to get promoted and make a fortune.
"This is a great joy!" Old Man Su said happily, "In two days, our whole family will go to the capital to see Brother Xia and his family off."
Er Pan glanced at Da Pan and asked, "Master, are we going too?"
"Go! Everyone!" Old Man Su waved his hand and said proudly, "Our two families will be far apart from each other in the future. It may not be easy to meet again. Let's take this opportunity to say goodbye properly."
When a group of little kids heard that they were going to the provincial capital, they immediately jumped for joy.
They don’t quite understand the feeling of separation yet, but they are happy to be able to go out and play.
Er Pan bumped Da Pan's arm and asked, "Brother, should we give Xia Siya something?"
Da Pan's heart moved.
Then, he glanced sideways.
"No! If it gets out, it will be bad for her reputation!"
Er Pan: "...Really not? We grew up together, so a straw grasshopper or something like that shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
Erpan looked casual.
"Rich families have many rules," Da Pan said expressionlessly. "Especially the Bai family. They look like a pedantic family. That Bai Shuzhi also seems to have a lot of bad habits. Let's not cause trouble for them, or we might get caught."
Er Pan: “…”
Patted Da Pan's shoulder.
"If you don't want to send me off, then don't." Er Pan said indifferently: "Brother, you are still thoughtful."
Da Pan glanced at Er Pan and said nothing.
At this time, the Su family did not know that not only Prefect Xia was promoted, but Old Man Su was also going to be promoted.
Tang Bao picked up the needle and thread again and quickly made two pairs of shoes for Mrs. Xia and her husband.
Fortunately, the soles of the shoes were made by the sisters-in-law of the Su family, and Tang Bao was only responsible for embroidering the uppers.
Otherwise, we really won’t be able to make it in time.
The Xia couple were naturally very happy to see the entire Su family come to see them off.
"Hahaha...Brother Su, I have been thinking about you guys these past two days." Prefect Xia greeted Old Man Su warmly.
Old Man Su laughed and said, "Hahahaha...Brother, you've been transferred and promoted. I have to come and congratulate you no matter what."
After saying this, he clasped his fists towards Magistrate Xia and said solemnly, "Congratulations, brother, on your rapid rise to prominence and a smooth official career..."
Several sons and grandchildren of the Su family said in unison behind Old Man Su: "Congratulations, Uncle Xia (Grandpa Xia)..."
Upon seeing this, Magistrate Xia laughed heartily with joy.
"Hahahaha...congratulations." Magistrate Xia's face was full of high spirits.
After saying that, he took Old Man Su's hand and walked inside, sighing, "I've only been congratulating your family for the past few years, and today I finally hear you congratulating me. It's really not easy..."
When Magistrate Xia said this, everyone laughed.
Xia Siya, Old Lady Su and others exchanged greetings, then pulled Tang Bao aside to have a private conversation.
As soon as the two of them left the flower hall, Da Pan came out.
"Auntie!"
"What's wrong?"
Tang Bao stopped and looked back.
Da Pan walked over and looked at Xia Siya hesitantly.
Then, he took out a small homemade bamboo bow from his sleeve pocket.
The bamboo bow looks a bit old, which shows that it is not newly made.
"Here, this is for you." Da Pan handed the bamboo bow to Xia Siya and said with a stern face.
Xia Siya took the bamboo bow with a look of surprise on her face and said, "You still have it? We worked on it together. We were originally planning to show off our skills and hunt a rabbit or something, but the bowstring was weak, so we could only show it off in front of Wang Lai and the others..."
Xia Siya couldn't help laughing when she finished speaking.
Da Pan's face could no longer remain calm, and his eyes sparkled.
"It's better than what they made anyway."
There was a hint of pride in Da Pan's tone.
Then, his eyes dimmed again.
"When you go to the capital, if anyone bullies you, especially someone from the Bai family, if they dare to bully you, send a message back and I will definitely..." Da Pan stuttered, "I mean, Er Pan and I will definitely go and support you!"
Xia Siya happily patted Da Pan's shoulder and said excitedly, "Okay! Nephew, it's a deal! If I get bullied, I'll write to you right away! You take Er Pan and the others and rush to the capital. Let's make a big scene there."
He looked completely fearless.
After saying that, she looked at Da Pan with emotion and added with a gratified tone: "Aunt Xia really didn't love you in vain."
Da Pan's face immediately darkened.
The corners of Tang Bao's mouth curved slightly.
After Xia Siya finished speaking, she looked at Tang Bao again.
"And sister Fuya, you also said you would support me."
Tang Bao nodded naturally.
"Don't worry, Sister Siya, I told you I'd ride Dabai to support you." Tang Bao said proudly, "Let's not talk about our fighting ability. Just Dabai can scare away a large group of people."
"Hehehe..." Xia Siya rubbed her hands when she heard that and said, "Why am I kind of looking forward to someone bullying me?"
"Who bullied you?" Er Pan strode out, rolled up his sleeves, and said, "Tell me, I'll beat them until they cry for their parents!"
Xia Siya was even happier.
He shook the bamboo bow in his hand and said, "Not yet. Isn't this just a precaution? But I'll remember what you said! If that day ever comes, I'll definitely tell you."
"Don't worry, just say the word and we brothers will definitely help you vent your anger!"
Erpan said this proudly, and his eyes fell on the bamboo bow.
Then, he glanced at Da Pan.
"Brother, didn't you say..."
"What did I say? I didn't say anything!"
Da Pan interrupted Er Pan hurriedly.
There was a slight blush on her wheat-colored face.
Tang Bao and Xia Siya looked at each other.
Xia Siya pointed at Da Pan and laughed heartlessly.
"Nephew, you're blushing!"
After saying that, he looked at Erpan with excitement.
"Second nephew, tell me quickly, what did my eldest nephew say? Why is he blushing?"
Da Pan's face not only turned red, but also turned black.
He reached out and tugged at Erpan's arm, saying in a gruff voice, "You're the only one who talks too much! In that case, let's go talk to Second Brother Xia!"
After saying that, he pulled Erpan and ran away to find Brother Xia.
Xia Siya played with the bamboo bow in her hand, looked at Da Pan's back, and asked curiously, "Sister Fuya, what did our nephew say?"
Tang Bao glanced at the bamboo bow in Xia Siya's hand and answered irrelevantly: "I can't believe that after so many years, Da Pan still has this bamboo bow."
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Xia Siya looked down at the bamboo bow in her hand and said, "That's right, I didn't expect our nephew to be such a thoughtful person."
Tang Bao looked at Xia Siya with an indescribable look and said nothing more.
