Old Lady Xia wiped her tears and said:
"I know all this, but I just can't accept that our grandson has been harmed like this."
"Should we ask that bitch Liu Xiu to look for Xia Jin? She's rich, and she definitely wouldn't care about the little money the gambler has for his studies."
"Also, the money for treating his brother's leg is definitely not enough for him. Do you think we should try and see if we can get the money from her?"
"As long as he lends a hand to us, all the problems our family encounters will not be a problem. Although our family treated her badly before, Liu Xiu is still her biological mother after all. How could she bear to see her suffer?"
Old Man Xia looked at the naive man in front of him and said helplessly:
"Why don't you understand? It's too late. How can she not blame us for what we did to her before?"
"Liu Xiu means nothing to her. She has already found her biological father and no longer needs Liu Xiu's love. Besides, you know how Liu Xiu treated her before."
"Do you think you could forgive it if it were you? No one would forgive. Whether it's an apology or admitting your mistake, it's too late. Too late."
"She's successful and wealthy now. If we go there now, she'll think we have bad intentions and are after her money. Of course, she's not wrong."
"If we had come to our senses earlier and admitted our mistakes to her when she was kicked out, maybe our relationship could have been eased, but it's no longer possible now."
"Since we are all leaving, let's not bother her. If Liu Xiu is willing, let her write a letter to tell her that she is leaving. If not, then leave it at that."
After hearing what he said, Old Lady Xia muttered softly:
"Who knew she would become so successful back then? If I had known he was so capable, I would have definitely supported him and not tortured her so much when I was at home."
After hearing what she said, Old Man Xia thought to himself, yes, who knew at that time that she would have such a bright future.
He thought that after they kicked her out of the house, she would be living in poverty, maybe even unable to afford to go to school. She would definitely come back to beg him for help, so they were fearless at the time.
But who would have thought that the reality was just the opposite. Their family's life became worse and worse every month, while Xia Jin's life became more and more prosperous.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, their family does not lack food for her, but at that time they always felt that she was not their own family member and did not want to support her.
Every time he saw Old Lady Xia ordering her to work, he felt that it was as she should be. After all, Xia Jin lived in her own house and ate her own food, so what was wrong with doing some work?
But it was because of this that the rift between them grew deeper and deeper. When they finally drove the man out, they felt relieved, as if they had gotten rid of a big trouble.
But unexpectedly, in the end, they had to go up to her and beg her for help.
He had done so many wrong things in his life. The first one was ruining his brother's marriage for a job in the city. Another one was not raising Xia Jin properly.
In fact, if Xia Jing knew what she was thinking, she would definitely say, if she wasn't so successful now and her family didn't need her, would she be able to think like this?
If Xia Jin still seemed useless and accomplished nothing, he would definitely think that he had done nothing wrong.
In his heart, he admitted that he was wrong, but he just regretted that he didn't treat her well before she became rich, so that he couldn't take advantage of her after she became rich.
Seeing Xia Jin's prosperous life and the huge profits made in the store every day, how could he not be jealous? However, because of the previous incident, he also knew that the relationship between Xia Jin and them would never be eased.
He regretted it because Xia Jin was successful. He just regretted that he couldn't get a share of his business.
As for why he felt sorry for his brothers, it was because they were about to return to the village and only then did he remember how kind they were to him.
If there were no one else to take care of you in the village, you wouldn't be able to live comfortably. After all, if there are few people, you will be easily bullied by people from other families.
Now he was driven back in disgrace. There was no house to live in the village, and even staying at his brother's house was impossible. That was why he regretted and felt sorry.
If he had a good relationship with his brothers, it might be easy for him to get back the house his parents left him.
But it was impossible at this time. Apart from anything else, his brothers hated him so much that how could they let him take the house back so easily?
He had no roots, and in order to quickly gain a foothold in the village, he did not dare to mention this matter. After all, he was counting on a few brothers to help him quickly gain a foothold in the village.
Therefore, only when people are unlucky and can use others, will they feel that there is something wrong with them and feel that they have let others down, and then they will regret it.
Only then will I wonder why I didn’t treat her well in the beginning. If I had treated her well, would everything be different?
But there is no regret medicine in this world. What has been done has been done. Whether you regret it or not, the previous damage has already existed.
After thinking about all this, I can only say that the old man’s mental outlook is completely different from before. He looked like a 50-year-old before, but now he looks like a 70-year-old. It seems as if all his energy has been drained away.
In the next few days, the Xia family went to Xia Qingqing's house and made a fuss, but they only got 500 yuan and nothing else.
Looking at the money in her hand, Old Lady Xia wanted to go forward and tear the people in front of her apart. After all, there was so much money, and now only this little is left. How could she not feel distressed?
At first, they didn't want to give it to him. That was because the gambler was so consumed by alcohol and sex that he was no match for Xia Jianguo. Not to mention there were other people with him, so they beat him up before they got the money.
The old man thought about it for a while after hearing the news that his son had grown up. Then, that night he packed up all the valuables in the house and drove back to his hometown.
After all, he knew that if he stayed any longer, he would be robbed by people from the casino sooner or later. His family only had so little money, and he couldn't give it to others.
As she boarded the bus back to the village, Old Lady Xia gazed at the city with reluctance, tears streaming down her face. She had always imagined she would grow old here, but she had never imagined...
