Xia Jin restrained his emotions and choked up as he said, "I want Liu Xiu to pay the price, I want his whole family to pay the price. Why should they do that? That was my father's hard-earned money. Why should they do that?"
After saying that, Xia Jin murmured again: "It's all my fault. I'm the one who hurt him."
Gu Jingmo saw that Xia Jin was not in a good state. Fearing that she would get stuck in a dead end, he quickly said, "Baby, listen to me. You are not wrong. You were also deceived by your mother and others. This has nothing to do with you. It's all your mother's fault."
Xia Jin said, "No, no, I should have noticed it long ago. You know how Liu Xiu gets particularly happy for a few days at the end of every year? During those days, my stepfather and his family treat me better than usual, and sometimes they even bring some local specialties home. Every time I ask them, they say they're from relatives in the countryside. But how can they even have relatives in the countryside? I should have noticed it, but I was too stupid."
Gu Jingmo wiped Xia Jin's tears with a tissue and said, "It's okay, baby. Once we find your father, we'll go to your stepfather's house with her remittance slip and get the money back one by one."
Xia Jin avoided Gu Jingmo's hand, wiped her face a few times and said, "Yes, I can't cry. I have to cheer up. I still have to take revenge on the Xia family."
Gu Jingmo handed the tissue to Xia Jin and said, "Use this to wipe it. I'll take care of everything. I'll make them redundant when I get back, okay?"
Xia Jin took the tissue and said, "I've already thought of a solution. Why don't you let them get laid off after I've almost exacted my revenge? And let them get laid off one by one. Let my good mother get laid off first. I want to see how she can survive under Old Lady Xia without her job and the money my father gives her every year."
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I won't cry now. But if you can't figure it out, be sure to tell me."
Xia Jin said with a half-smile: "Liu Xiu is my mother after all. I am not easy to deal with, but my father is here. You said that you took so much money and didn't treat the child well. Shouldn't my father go and make a fuss?"
"Also, Liu Xiu is the only one in my stepfather's family who is related to me. No matter what I do with the others, they have no reason to lecture me. When I get home, I'll start with my good stepsister. Doesn't she want to marry Luo Zisen? I'll help her."
Gu Jingmo said with an indulgent look: "I'll do as you say."
Secretary Zhao said from the side: "That's what we should do. Miss Xia, your mother told me that she's worse than a stepmother. You should let your biological father's family teach her a lesson."
Xia Jin said: "Yes, I would rather she was my stepmother, so that I wouldn't feel so bad."
"Secretary Zhao, what else are you trying to find out? Have you ever seen my father?"
Secretary Zhao said, "I haven't met your father. Otherwise, your uncle's family treated your father very well and took good care of him. Your two cousins also respected him very much."
Xia Jin said: "I want to ask if the villagers have told you why Liu Xiu married my father." After knowing what Liu Xiu had done, Xia Jin didn't even call her mother anymore because she felt that Liu Xiu was not worthy.
Xia Jin often wondered why she married Liu Xiu, since he looked down on her biological father so much. Why did he take her away when he knew she was a burden? Was it just to take revenge on her father? If she hated him, why did she marry him?
Secretary Zhao said, "We heard a few older people scolding Liu Xiu. It seems that when your mother went to the countryside, she was beautiful and very popular among the male educated youth and unmarried young men in the village."
"This aroused the jealousy of some girls at the time. Your mother, on the other hand, was always so popular that she accepted everyone she met. Soon, some negative rumors about her began to spread."
"Your mother didn't care at first, because she was having a passionate affair with a young man from a wealthy family. But every young man was a good match for your mother. After dating her for a while, he dumped her."
"Your mother jumped into the river in a rage and was rescued by your father who happened to be passing by. At that time, the rumors about your mother intensified. Some even said that your mother had already lost her innocence before jumping into the river. Of course, these are just rumors, and the truth is unclear."
"When your mother woke up, she realized that her reputation would become increasingly bad after this incident. She definitely couldn't survive alone in the countryside, so she turned to your father."
"Your father had no choice but to marry her. At first, things were fine, but after you were born, things deteriorated dramatically. It wasn't until Liu Xiu's family used their connections to get her back to the city that things improved."
Xia Jin smiled disdainfully and said, "So that's how it is. Seeing how much Liu Xiu hated my biological father, I thought my biological father forced her into this relationship, but it turns out she got it herself."
"Didn't Liu Xiu find a helper because she couldn't support herself in the countryside? As for why she became like that after giving birth to me, wasn't it because my grandparents used their connections to get her back to the city? So, her husband in the countryside became a disgrace and a burden to her, so she wanted to get rid of him."
Xia Jin guessed Liu Xiu's selfish mentality at that time exactly. For the self-centered Liu Xiu at that time, Xia Minye became her shame from the moment she received the letter from her parents.
As for why he wanted to take Xia Jin away, it was just to take revenge on Xia Minye. When the two got married, Liu Xiu didn't want to get a marriage certificate, but Grandpa Xia made a harsh threat, saying that if he didn't get a marriage certificate, he would cancel the engagement and Liu Xiu would never be able to enter their house.
Grandpa Xia had long seen through Liu Xiu's true face. He knew that if they didn't get the marriage certificate, Liu Xiu could leave his stupid son and go back to the city at any time. In order to prevent this, he forced the two of them to get the marriage certificate. Unexpectedly, in the end Liu Xiu still divorced his stupid son and took away his only granddaughter.
Grandpa Xia regretted his decision and why he let such a daughter into the family.
Xia Jin asked, "Anything else?"
"No, that's all we found out."
Xia Jin smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work today. You must be tired after running so far. Go back and rest first. I'll need you to accompany me again tomorrow."
Secretary Zhao looked at Xia Jin, who looked completely different from her previous crazy look, and said, "It's okay, Miss Xia. It's not hard. We are very happy to help you." After that, the two of them left.
In fact, although Xia Jin cried very hard just now, it was better after crying. Xia Jin knew what she should do. Crying was useless. After crying, Xia Jin also thought it through and let it go. Since the past cannot be changed, then change the future. At least in this life, she will not let her father live such a hard life.
