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

After dinner, Xia Zhiheng and Luo Yuechuan talked about the scene when Xia Yichu was at Luo's house, but Xia Zhiheng did not tell Luo Yuechuan about the things that were stolen from the house.

Xu Yumei, who was clearing the table nearby, was terrified as she listened. Xia Zhiheng had indeed come because of the theft at Xia Guofang's house. Fortunately, Luo Yuechuan didn't mention that her son had also been at the Luo family's house that day when he returned to his room.

Since the police left, Xu Yumei has gone to the rented house to look for her son, but she hasn't found him. She's very anxious but there's nothing she can do. After searching for a while, she has to go back to the Luo family to work.

"Aunt, according to Xiao Chuan, Xiao Chu didn't have a chance to take your things that day."

"Zhiheng, your aunt didn't mean anything by it, she was just asking."

Yang Yunxia couldn't bear to see her son defend Xia Yichu. Besides, after seeing how wealthy Xia Guofang's family was, she was already planning to borrow money from her to build a house for her family.

Then, she asked her youngest son to repay the money, as she didn't believe Zhiqian would dare not. If he didn't repay, it would ultimately be his aunt who would suffer; Yang Yunxia had no savings whatsoever besides her monthly salary.

Yang Yunxia knew her mother well; if she didn't pay the 50,000 yuan, she would definitely reveal what happened back then. She didn't want anyone to know about that incident, especially the Xia family and her two sons.

"Xiao Heng, I understand. I shouldn't have doubted Xiao Chu. It's just that I wasn't home when I went to see your mother that day, so I didn't know what was going on at home."

She didn't get home until around 10 p.m. that night, when everyone was asleep. Luo Hao left early the next morning, and two days later he went on a business trip again and hasn't returned yet.

Her eldest son only knows how to study all day and never talks to her about these things. Her youngest son only wants to eat and cling to Xu Yumei; she has no one to talk to at home.

"Aunt Mei, I heard that my aunt said she was suspicious of Xiao Chu, and it was you who reminded her."

Xu Yumei finished washing the dishes and was about to take the trash out when Xia Zhiheng called her back.

"Director Xia, I didn't mean anything by it, nor did I suspect Miss Xia. It's just that the police asked if any strangers had come to our house recently, and since Miss Xia hadn't been here before, I mentioned it."

Xu Yumei dared not look Xia Zhiheng in the eye; he was even more intimidating than the two policemen from that morning. She grew increasingly anxious; she absolutely couldn't let Xia Zhiheng know that her son had also visited the Luo family. Otherwise, Xia Zhiheng would definitely investigate further, and sooner or later he would discover it.

"Xiao Chu is my sister, and this is also the home of her aunt and uncle. How did she become a stranger?"

His grandmother was right; Xu Yumei was dishonest. He needed to find a time to talk to his uncle and suggest that they change the nanny.

Xiao Kai's growth has become a bit erratic, especially if we hadn't found a reliable nanny. Now that both children are older, we don't need a nanny anymore.

"Director Xia, that's not what I meant."

"So what do you mean? Trying to drive a wedge between my sister and my aunt—is that something a nanny should be doing?!"

"I...wife, you know, I really didn't mean it that way. I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being so talkative."

Tears streamed down Xu Yumei's face, and her body trembled slightly. She was terrified, worried that Xia Zhiheng would continue to investigate, and she knew that Xia Zhiheng was not someone to be fooled.

Xia Guofang was still angry about what had happened with her youngest son and didn't say anything in defense of Xu Yumei. Yang Yunxia couldn't stand it and disliked Xia Zhiheng's aggressive behavior regarding Xia Yichu's situation.

"Alright, Zhiheng, I was there when Yumei said it this morning. She just said it casually, don't treat her like a criminal, you see, you scared her to tears."

Go throw out the trash.

Yang Yunxia was annoyed to see Xu Yumei crying and told her to leave quickly. Xu Yumei couldn't wait to leave, so she picked up the trash and hurried away.

"Mom, I haven't even said anything to you yet! Not only do you not defend Xiaochu when outsiders are badmouthing her, but you also went to your workplace to look up the phone number for the president's office at Pengcheng University and had my aunt call the school. What are you trying to do? Do you really hate Xiaochu that much?"

After Xu Yumei left, Xia Zhiheng no longer gave his mother any face. He was afraid that if they argued at home, it would disturb Qingyan and the child, but now that Luo Yuekai and Luo Yuechuan had gone upstairs to take a shower, there were no outsiders at home.

"Xia Zhiheng, I gave your aunt's phone number so she could call and find out the truth. I'm trying to clear Xia Yichu's name."

"Mom, Xiao Chu only visited Auntie's once, how can she become a suspect? You're prejudiced against her."

"She even hit your grandmother, shouldn't I be prejudiced against her?"

Seeing that Yang Yunxia was getting more and more agitated, Xia Guofang stepped forward and said, "Alright, sister-in-law, Zhiheng, stop arguing and each of you should say less."

"Auntie, don't worry about it. I'll talk to my mom about it today."

"Guofang, don't worry about it. Zhiheng has a lot of opinions about me. I want to hear what kind of grand principles he can give me."

Seeing the state of the mother and son, Xia Guofang simply sat down to rest. The theft at her home was already enough to bother her; she had no interest in offering any more advice.

"Mom, back then, Xiao Chu risked her own safety to save Qing Yan, and a month ago she saved Qing Yan and the child again."

To me, she's not just my sister, but also the savior of my family of three. If she ever needs anything, I'd give my life for her.

Besides, what did she do wrong? She just came to her aunt's house for a meal, and you all accused her of stealing without even asking what happened.

Yang Yunxia felt uneasy after hearing Xia Zhiheng's words. She felt that her son had been completely bewitched by Xia Yichu.

Xia Zhiheng then continued, "Grandma tried to extort money and a house from my uncle. She was being unreasonable first. It's not that old people are always right."

"Yes, your grandmother was in the wrong first, but wasn't Xia Yichu also right to hit her? Your grandmother is almost seventy years old; what if something had happened to her if she had hit her?"

"Mom, if you're worried about Grandma getting into trouble, you should tell her and the Yang family to have some self-respect and stop coveting Uncle's things."

Whether you want money or a house, you have to rely on your own efforts, not on fighting, grabbing, or scheming. What you gain through scheming will never truly be yours.

Snapped!

Hearing the words that what she had schemed for would ultimately not be hers, Yang Yunxia trembled with anger and couldn't help but raise her hand to slap Xia Zhiheng.

"Sister-in-law, why did you hit Xiaoheng?"

Xia Guofang stood up anxiously and went over to look at Xia Zhiheng's face. There were five bright red handprints on his face, which made her feel extremely distressed.

"Auntie, I'm fine."

Xia Zhiheng could have dodged, but he didn't want to. His mother would definitely be angry tonight for saying these things, so it would be good for her to slap him to vent her anger.

"Sister-in-law, really, can't you just talk things out properly? Why do you have to..."

Before Xia Guofang could finish speaking, Yang Yunxia suddenly ran away.

"Why did your mom run away? What's wrong with her? I'll go get some ointment to put on your face."

"Auntie, no need, I'll apply the medicine when I get home."

After Xia Zhiheng finished speaking, he left. When Xia Guofang came out with the ointment, he had already disappeared.

"Mom, I want to eat ice cream," Luo Yuekai said as he came downstairs after taking a shower.

"Go get it from the fridge yourself. You can only have one ice cream."

"Mom, where's Aunt Mei?"

"Aunt Mei, Aunt Mei, why do you keep looking for her? Is she your mother or am I your mother? If you want ice cream, you should go find your Aunt Mei."

Seeing his mother's explosive temper, Luo Yuekai dared not say another word. He went to the refrigerator, grabbed an ice cream, and ran upstairs to eat it.
