"Xiaoying, don't worry about your studies. Your older brother is very capable. He's always first in his grade and is especially good at studying. He can tutor you. Don't rush your studies. You're not in good health, so don't overwork yourself."
Xiong Ge looked at her youngest daughter with great heartache.
Xia Xiang became pregnant unexpectedly before her divorce from Ye Siren. After the divorce, she was heartbroken and heartless, throwing herself into her work. She didn't even know she was three months pregnant and almost miscarried.
Excessive worry and overwork have made Xia Xiang's health even worse than Xia Mei's. If it weren't for her powerful supernatural abilities, her body would probably be even weaker.
"That's right, Xiaoying, if you don't understand anything, just contact your big brother. Your big brother is always here..." Xia Yu smiled indulgently, making people feel exceptionally at ease.
"You can also contact your sister; she's learned it all too," Xia Mei interrupted, unable to stand her older brother's boastful manner.
"You infatuated beauty, don't set a bad example for Xiaoying with your grades that have been hovering around the passing mark for so long." Xia Yu rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction.
"Hey, Xiaoying, me too..." Xia Tian still felt that he should share the burden for his little sister, and of course he should be included. Besides, he was already in junior high school, so first graders should be a piece of cake for him.
"Shut up!" Xia Yu and Xia Mei, who were still arguing, spoke at the same time.
Xia Tian looked at Xia Xiang with a resentful and aggrieved expression: "..." He couldn't win against them.
"Thank you, Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister, and Mom." Xia Xiang watched them bickering and suddenly felt so happy that her eyes welled up with tears.
Xiong Ge also felt a bit emotional. She felt that the people she owed the most to were her children, especially Xiao Ying, who hadn't been by her side since she was little.
As the person in charge of the Xia family, Xia Yu sensed the increasingly somber atmosphere and immediately changed the subject, "Alright, everyone, get ready. We'll set off after Xiao Ying's classmates arrive."
"Okay!" Xia Tian, Xia Mei, and Xia Xiang all obediently responded and sped up their breakfast.
This heartwarming scene brought tears to Xiong Ge's eyes. She didn't have any extravagant hopes; she only wished for her family to be safe and for her children to grow up healthy. Any sacrifice she made would be worthwhile.

"Hello, Xiangxiang, you're finally back! Chenwen has missed you so much!"
Before seeing him, one could hear his voice; Ren Chenwen's explosive voice came from the front door.
"Me too!" Shrimp Frog Bro chimed in.
"What are you doing here! It's a family gathering today, we don't welcome outsiders." Xia Mei was annoyed by the three of them and shouted at them.
"Don't be like that, Sister Meimei, I want to participate too." Ren Chenwen, a tough guy, pouted and looked at Xiong Ge with a wronged expression.
"Besides, we're related, we'll be family sooner or later~"
After saying that, he kept giving Xia Mei flirtatious glances, which almost made Xia Mei want to vomit.
Xiong Ge couldn't help but show his disgust, but he still let the rest of them join in.
She respects that boys can be cute and charming, but she's reserved...
"Ugh, so annoying!" Xia Mei didn't want to talk to him. She knew he would definitely follow her around again, like a piece of chewing gum that she couldn't shake off. She could only order him to do more work.
A short while later, Hu Yanjing and Ren Chenfeng also arrived.
"Brother Wen?" Ren Chenfeng was surprised to see his cousin here. It turned out that he was Xia Xiang's cousin, Xia Lanxingde.
"You two know each other?" Xia Xiang's eyes widened. She really didn't know that the superpower community was so small.
In fact, she might not even recognize someone with the same surname. For example, they were only the main branch of the Xia Lanxingde family, and there were other clansmen below them, whom she couldn't recognize at all.
Unexpectedly, Ren Chenfeng and Ren Chenwen were actually quite close; they were cousins.
"Oh my, Xiao Feng, you're my Xia Xiang's classmate?" Ren Chenwen said in a teasing tone. "What a coincidence! One of you is my cousin, and the other is my sister."
"He's your cousin?" Hu Yanjing couldn't help but laugh. Although it wasn't appropriate, Ren Chenwen did have a certain comedic talent.
"A cousin I'm not very close to, the kind I'm not close to at all!" Ren Chenfeng knew exactly what kind of person his best friend was, and threatened in a low voice, "If you want to laugh, then hold it in!"
My cousin is a typical performer with a histrionic personality. Even I, a first grader, am more mature than him. He's a disgrace to the Ren family!
Xia Xiang: She wanted to punch Ren Chenwen, but she didn't know if the mosaic could block it!
"Ren! Chen! Wen!" Xia Mei was furious. "What do you mean 'your sister'? She's my sister! If you keep talking nonsense, you'll regret it..."
As he spoke, he raised his hand to tear off the Dragon Sealing Sticker, but Xia Yu quickly pressed it back down.
——
After everyone had settled in, they arrived at a sunny and scenic forest park.
"Alright, kids," Xiong Ge said with a happy smile, "Now let's assign tasks. I'll be in charge of cooking..."
"Wait!"
Before she could finish speaking, everyone shouted for her to stop, leaving the newly joined Hu Yanjing and Ren Chenfeng looking on with confusion.
As the eldest son, Xia Yu naturally had to take the lead in stopping his mother's dangerous behavior, and carefully worded his statement.
"Mom, you finally have some time to rest, so just leave these little things to us. Besides, we're kids, we need to get more exercise, and it's more meaningful to do things ourselves, isn't it? Just enjoy the beautiful sunshine and the delicious food we made today."
"Waaah—" Xiong Ge was so moved by these words that she burst into tears. "Look, how sensible and well-mannered my child is. I am so proud of him."
Xia Mei never disagreed with her older brother when it came to her mother cooking, and she always went along with it, feeling fortunate to have escaped a disaster.
