Reborn back to the time before I sold my blood to support my scumbag boyfriend's college educat

"Sister-in-law, what should I do?"

Xia Guofang repeated what Xia Yichu had said to Yang Yunxia and asked her for advice.

"I'll go home with you after get off work later. Let's ask Xiao Chuan about what happened that day. Since Xia Yichu said that, those things probably weren't stolen by her."

Xia Yichu is a college student. Stealing would ruin her future. She's not stupid; she definitely wouldn't do that.

"But if it's not her, then who is it?"

"Let's go! I'll go with you to find Zhiheng and have him help you analyze the situation."

"Okay, but it's not your off-get off work time yet!"

Xia Guofang glanced at her watch; it was just past four o'clock, almost five. Yang Yunxia's workday ended at five-thirty.

"It's okay, I was taking the day off anyway."

Yang Yunxia tidied up the things on the table and went directly to Xia Zhiheng's house with Xia Guofang. Yang Yunxia knocked on the door, and Su Qingyan opened it. Xia Zhiheng probably hadn't gotten off work yet.

"Mom, Auntie, come in quickly."

Su Qingyan found it strange that the two of them came together; her mother-in-law hadn't visited for almost a month. She hoped her mother-in-law wouldn't cause trouble this time. When they first got married, she thought her mother-in-law was quite reasonable and kind to her, but now she seemed increasingly clueless.

"Qingyan, is Xiaobo asleep?"

During Su Qingyan's postpartum period, Xia Guofang visited her several times, bringing her many tonics.

"Auntie, no, Auntie is changing diapers in the room."

"By the way, Xiao Bo seems to have turned one month old. Aren't you planning to have a celebration?"

Yang Yunxia was stunned. She had forgotten such an important thing; her grandson was already a month old.

"Yes, Zhiheng said the full moon celebration will be on October 1st, which is a holiday and everyone will be free."

Actually, Su Qingyan wanted to hold the full-moon celebration on October 1st, but she wanted to wait for Xia Yichu to have a holiday. However, she couldn't say it directly, for fear that her mother-in-law would have objections and cause trouble for Xia Yichu.

"Mom, Auntie, have some water."

Su Qingyan went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water for each of them, while Chunhua stayed in her room and didn't intend to come out. Yang Yunxia didn't know she was Zhou Miaoying's aunt, and Su Qingyan and Xia Zhiheng didn't want her to know either.

"Qingyan, stop fussing around and come sit down. You're still in postpartum confinement, so don't walk around for too long. Go back to your room and lie down after a while."

Here, the postpartum period usually lasts forty days, but Su Qingyan is only on her thirty-first day. When Xia Guofang gave birth to Luo Yuechuan, her mother-in-law didn't help, and Luo Hao had to go to work.

Her mother had just returned home from the Northwest and had been in poor health, so she couldn't take care of her. Her father ran back and forth every day to cook for her and take care of her mother, so she didn't have a proper postpartum period.

She had many health problems. After giving birth to Xiao Kai, Luo Hao made some money in business, put aside his business, and devoted himself to taking care of her for two whole months.

During that time, I took her to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to improve her health. Now she is in good health and has no problems at all.

She could empathize with Yang Yunxia's attitude and felt a little resentful that Yang Yunxia didn't care about Su Qingyan. Fortunately, things were different now; they had money to hire a nanny to take care of her.

"Auntie, I understand."

"Qingyan, when is Zhiheng coming back?"

Yang Yunxia didn't care about Su Qingyan at all, and was even more unaware that Xia Guofang had a problem with her.

"It should be soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Zhiheng opened the door and came in carrying groceries. He didn't have much to do today, so he went to the market to buy some groceries after getting off work early.

"Qingyan, I'm back. Aunt, Mom, you're here."

"Xiao Heng, why are you the one who went to buy groceries?"

Su Qingyan also looked at Xia Zhiheng. Aunt Chunhua had already bought groceries. Did her husband know that his mother and sister-in-law would be coming to their house today? Was he worried that they wouldn't have enough food, so he went to buy some more?

"Oh, I don't have anything planned for today. I'll just buy some of Qingyan's favorite dishes and cook them at home."

Yang Yunxia was unhappy to hear this, as she had never eaten any food cooked by her son.

"That's right, a good man should treat his wife well. Qingyan, go to bed and lie down for a while, don't sit for too long."

Xia Guofang was quite happy. Su Qingyan was a cultured and beautiful woman, and now she had given birth to a grandson for the Xia family. She was very satisfied with this niece-in-law.

"Okay, then Mom and Auntie, you can stay for dinner later."

"Don't worry about us, go inside and rest. We'll talk to Zhiheng for a bit and then head home. Sister Mei is cooking at home, your mom and I will eat there later."

Su Qingyan didn't say anything more and went back to her room to rest. She didn't want Yang Yunxia to stay either; Yang Yunxia had been speaking sarcastically lately. She didn't want to be with her, as it would spoil her good mood.

"Auntie, what do you want?"

"Come sit down, sit down and let's talk."

Xia Zhiheng first took the things to the kitchen before sitting down on the sofa.

"Your aunt's gold bars and jewelry were stolen, and we've come here to ask for your help in finding the thief."

"How could it be missing? When did it disappear?"

Xia Guofang recounted to Xia Zhiheng in detail how she discovered the things were missing. Su Qingyan arrived in the room as well. The child was still awake, and the door was open.

When she heard Xia Guofang's housekeeper say that Xiao Chu had been to their house, and when she heard Xia Guofang call Pengcheng University looking for Xiao Chu, her anger flared up.

She was so angry that she was about to go out and confront them, but Aunt Chunhua wouldn't let her. The two people outside were her elders, and she couldn't very well confront them.

"Mom, what a terrible idea you came up with! How could you let Aunt call Xiao Chu at school?"

Are you trying to get Xiao Chu expelled from school? Xiao Chu just saved your grandson's life, and you're already so eager to harm her.

Xia Zhiheng said, his face ashen, that his mother was becoming increasingly confused; she herself was a leader in the Education Bureau. Didn't she understand the enormous impact this would have on Xiaochu if the school found out about it? Even if it was just a suspicion.

"Xiao Heng, don't blame your mother, and don't get agitated. I'm only approaching Xiao Chu as an elder; the principal doesn't know we suspect Xiao Chu of stealing."

Even if Xia Guofang was stupid, she knew that the school couldn't find out about this. Her parents would be the first to come after her, especially since this was just their suspicion.

"Auntie, do you even have a brain? You believe everything the nanny says. It was Xiao Chu's first time visiting your house, how could she know what was in your closet?"

Don't even bother thinking about it. Where could Xiao Chu have hidden her summer clothes? I think the nanny is the most suspicious.

"But Sister Mei has been with our family for almost ten years, so it shouldn't be her."

"What if she didn't steal before because she was rich, and only started stealing now that she's short of money? Ninety percent of the time, this kind of theft is committed by someone you know. How could a stranger steal half of your gold bars and leave you with the other half?"

"But that doesn't quite make sense either. If she was afraid of being discovered, she shouldn't have stolen the gold bars."

She only stole a little of all my gold jewelry, so it was hard for me to notice. If half the gold bars hadn't been gone, I wouldn't have realized my other gold jewelry was missing too.

This is also what Xia Zhiheng can't understand. He has been back from military service for many years and has seen Xu Yumei many times.

She's a very perceptive and intelligent person. Otherwise, Xiao Kai wouldn't be so spoiled by her, and the first thing he does when he gets home is look for Xu Yumei.

"Auntie, I'm going home with you now."

"OK"

Xia Zhiheng went to his room to tell Su Qingyan before going to the Luo family with them.
