Xia Erge said unhappily: "Mom, you guys are always like this. How can I, a grown man, be deceived by others?"
Aunt Xia said with a look of disgust: "If it was your brother, we wouldn't worry, but you are too stupid to worry."
Looking at the quarrel between the mother and son, Xia Jin smiled and said, "Aunt, why don't you let the eldest and second brothers come with me to my place?"
Aunt Xia said, "No, Xiaojin, it's not easy for you, how can you take them away? Besides, how can we trouble you? Just take care of yourself and don't worry about us."
Grandpa Xia also spoke up, "Xiao Jin, it's not easy for you out there. We can't help you much, but we won't hold you back. Your two brothers want to make money and go out and make their own way. That's their own business. We can't bother you."
"Besides, they have enough food and drink at home. The most important thing is that you live your own life well. They have everything they need and don't need your help."
Father Xia also said: "Xiao Jin, we are very happy that you can take time to come back and see us. You don't have to worry about anything else. Just go to school well."
Xia Jin smiled and said, "It's okay, Grandpa. I'm opening a new store and I'm short of staff, so my two cousins are going over to help me."
"Besides, we are all family. I can eat and drink well myself, but I can't bear to see you work so hard every day."
"Just let the two cousins follow me. I will definitely not let them get cheated. Second cousin, what do you want to do with me?"
Second Brother Xia said excitedly: "Really? I want to go."
Uncle Xia started to scold, "Stop making trouble, Yan Bing. What are you doing? You're causing trouble for your sister."
"Uncle didn't cause me any trouble. Just imagine if I was bullied there, you guys wouldn't be able to get there from such a long distance. If my two cousins were there, they could at least help me."
Second Brother Xia also said loudly: "Grandpa, Mom, Dad, and Uncle, don't worry. I won't cause any trouble for my little sister. I will protect her. You think I'll be cheated if I go out alone, but now my little sister wants to take me with her and you won't let her. What should I do?"
"Mom and Dad, I'm only nineteen. I don't want to live the predictable life you guys lead. I want to go out and explore the world. I want to see this rapidly developing country. I also want to make money so you can live a good life."
Grandpa Xia thought for a while and said, "Xiao Jin, tell me the truth. Would it really not cause you any trouble if you let your two brothers work with you? And you didn't deliberately reserve these positions for them, did you?"
Xia Jin said, "Without Grandpa, I'm really planning to open a new store, and I'm just short of staff. And what if my stepfather bullies me over there? Just let your two cousins go with me."
The entire Xia family is afraid of taking advantage of Xia Jin. They didn't help Xia Jin when she was having a hard time before, and now that Xia Jin is doing well, they can't take advantage of her. Although they are relatives, there is a boundary.
In fact, if they agreed to this matter as soon as Xia Jin mentioned it, Xia Jin would still be a little disappointed even though it was Xia Jin who proposed it. But when Xia Jin saw how cautious they were for fear of causing trouble for him, he felt relieved.
Xia Jin had seen many brothers fighting over money and becoming estranged, so he didn't want them to do the same. Xia Jin didn't know what the future would be like, but in the near future, they probably wouldn't. Right now, they all had a sincere heart towards Xia Jin.
When Second Brother Xia heard what Xia Jin said, he stared at his grandfather expectantly with his big eyes. He knew very well that this matter would only be possible if his grandfather said yes, and his parents' words were useless.
Old Master Xia sighed and looked at his second grandson, who looked expectant, and his eldest grandson, who looked calm but nervously clenched his fists. He paused and said, "Since your sister said so, you should follow her."
"But let's make it clear, no matter what, this is your sister's property. You can't be ungrateful. You can't be greedy and do your job properly."
"You can't just take advantage of being Xiaojin's relative and slack off. If I find out that you're not working hard and have ulterior motives, just wait and see."
Grandpa Xia has lived a lifetime and knows what Xia Jin means. She stood up on her own and wanted to help the poor relatives in the family. Although the child did not grow up with him, fortunately, her personality did not go astray.
This is good. I don't have the ability to give my descendants a good life. Now, with the help of my granddaughter, the family will become stronger and it will also be helpful to Xia Jin.
When Second Brother Xia heard what Grandpa Xia said, he said excitedly, "That's great. I can finally go out and take a look."
Although Brother Xia was not that excited, he also smiled widely.
Aunt Xia looked at her two silly boys, took Xia Jin's hand and said earnestly, "Xiao Jin, you are alone and we can't help you at all. Instead, we have to trouble you to take care of your two useless brothers. It's really a big trouble for you."
"If they don't listen to you or make any mistakes, just punish them as much as you want and don't worry about us. If they don't do their job well, just fire them. Don't worry about him being your brother. You're the most important thing, okay?"
Xia Jin smiled and said, "I understand. If they make a mistake, I will definitely tell you and let you punish them both."
"Oh, that's right. And you two heard what I said, don't act recklessly just because the boss is your sister."
Second Brother Xia said helplessly: "Mom, if you are worried about me, are you also worried about my eldest brother? With him around, nothing can happen to me."
Aunt Xia said, "I'm completely confident in your brother's well-being. I'm just worried you won't do your job properly."
"Mom, I promise to listen to my big brother and little sister and not cause them any trouble."
Aunt Xia said, "That's about right."
Xia Jin watched them bicker and said, "Then you can go over there after the New Year. You can spend the New Year at home first."
Father Xia said, "Xiao Jin, why don't you spend the New Year here with us? We haven't celebrated the New Year together for many years."
Xia Jin said reluctantly, "Dad, next year, definitely next year. I have a lot of things to do in the store that I need to go back to."
There were indeed some things going on in the store. When Xia Jin left, he only told them that he would be away for a few days. The New Year holiday and other things had not been arranged yet, and he had to go back to make new arrangements. Moreover, he had promised Gu Jingmo that he would go to Beijing with him, so he didn't want to let him down.
Father Xia said: "You can't..."
Grandpa Xia interrupted Father Xia and said, "Xiao Jin is so busy now, let's not make things more difficult for her. Next year will be next year."
