Chapter 209 Grandma Xia angrily scolds Yang Yunxia
Xia Guofang mustered up her courage and asked a colleague to introduce her to Luo Hao. The two got engaged after only one meeting. Then she called her parents, who told her to wait a little longer.
Xia Guofang, not wanting to wait any longer and fearing her aunt's discovery, told Luo Hao about her situation. Luo Hao agreed to marry her, and she secretly took her household registration booklet with him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage.
After receiving the marriage certificate, she called her parents again. Her parents didn't say anything, but just told her to go find one of her father's friends.
She received a house and some money from her father's friend, all left to her by her parents. Knowing her aunt was unreliable, they deliberately left it with their friend to be given to her when she got married.
"Guofang, are you alright?"
Seeing that she hadn't come down for so long, Xia Yichu was worried and asked Grandpa Xia to come upstairs to check on her. Actually, Grandpa Xia had wanted to come up to see his daughter earlier, but he was afraid that his wife would scold him in the heat of the moment.
"Dad, I'm fine, I'll be right down."
"Okay, your mother was just saying that in anger, don't take it to heart."
"Dad, I understand."
Grandpa Xia was also angry that his daughter called the school to look for her granddaughter, but thankfully she wasn't so confused as to say anything inappropriate.
"Grandpa Xia, is Auntie alright?"
Xia Yichu didn't want Xia Guofang to collapse so quickly, especially since the issues with Xu Yumei and Liu Yaohui hadn't been resolved yet.
"It's okay, she'll be down in a bit."
"Xiao Chu, I told you she was fine. You're so kind-hearted that you even sent your grandpa up to check on her. I really want to crack open her head and see what she's thinking."
And what does Yang Yunxia mean by this? She actually gave your aunt's school phone number; is she just trying to stir up trouble? I've said before that her mother's character is terrible, and her daughter isn't much better. Your uncle is just making empty promises…”
"Cough cough cough... Old woman, stop talking."
Grandma Xia realized she had said too much and shut her mouth. Xia Yichu knew what Grandma Xia wanted to say: she wanted to say that Xia Guohua had abandoned his childhood sweetheart Zhou Wenhui and insisted on marrying Yang Yunxia, who was a "brother-supporting demon."
In their past life, Grandpa and Grandma Xia passed away without knowing the truth. In this life, they wonder if they will ever know what Wang Fengxian and Yang Yunxia, mother and daughter, did to Xia Guohua back then.
If they knew the truth back then, it would probably be a huge blow to them; knowing it might not necessarily be a good thing.
She overheard this incident by chance in her past life. At that time, Wang Fengxian and her daughter were arguing in the courtyard house about the house she had to compensate Xia Zhiheng.
Wang Fengxian wanted to give the courtyard house to her eldest grandson, Yang Xingwang, but Yang Yunxia disagreed. She said it was more convenient for her son to live in a courtyard house now, as it was closer to the hospital.
Wang Fengxian said that if it weren't for her, she wouldn't have the good life she has now. If she wasn't given that house, she would tell everyone why she married Xia Guohua.
Xia Yichu happened to be there getting something and overheard this, but she wasn't interested in their story at the time. She left after hearing this, and later heard that Xia Zhiheng didn't want the courtyard house, so she gave it to Yang Xingwang. She didn't know if it was true.
Although Yang Xingwang was arrested not long after, he did not get the house back, and it seems that the house eventually ended up in Yang Xingyu's hands.
"Mom and Dad, have you eaten?" Xia Guofang asked in a hoarse voice as she came downstairs with red eyes.
"We've already eaten. Guofang, go and eat something yourself."
"Okay, Dad, I'll get you a glass of water."
Xia Guofang poured a glass of water for Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia, and gave Xia Yichu a bottle of soda.
"Where's your nanny? I haven't seen her."
When Grandma Xia asked about Xu Yumei, Xia Yichu also wanted to know. She had gotten up early today specifically so that she could see Xu Yumei at Xia Guofang's house.
"Mom, she went to buy groceries, she should be back soon."
Xia Guofang knew her mother wasn't just coming to settle scores with her, but also to see Xu Yumei. Right now, she was barely able to protect herself and couldn't worry about anything else. Besides, if Xu Yumei hadn't brought up Xia Yichu, she wouldn't be crying from her mother's scolding.
Bang bang bang!
Xia Guofang was just about to go to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat when someone knocked on the door again.
"I'll go open the door."
Xia Guofang guessed that it was Yang Yunxia who came to see her, since Xu Yumei had a key to the house and didn't need to knock.
"sister in law"
Opening the door, it was indeed Yang Yunxia; she had run home after beating Xia Zhiheng yesterday. Zhang Xiaohua and Li Xiuzhen were waiting for her at the door, saying that her mother wanted them to come over that evening to help tidy up, as the whole family was moving in for the next few days.
Yang Yunxia sent the two women back to take care of her mother, saying she would handle the cleaning herself. She knew time was short and borrowing money was urgent, so she planned to ask Xia Guofang for money today to help her family build a house.
"Guofang, what's wrong? What happened?"
Upon closer inspection, it was clear that Xia Guofang had been crying; her eyes and voice betrayed the signs of her distress.
"It's alright, sister-in-law, come in quickly."
"it is good"
Seeing that Xia Guofang was unwilling to talk, she didn't press further and followed Xia Guofang inside.
"Yunxia, you've come at the right time. I want to ask you why you gave Guofang Elementary School's phone number. What are you up to? Are you trying to ruin Elementary School?"
Yang Yunxia was surprised to find that there were still people in Xia Guofang's family, and they were the people she least wanted to see. Moreover, her mother-in-law started questioning her as soon as she saw her.
"Mom, I didn't mean anything by it. I just thought it would be good to call and ask, so that Xiao Chu can be cleared of suspicion."
Xia Guofang quickly abandoned her sister-in-law and hid in the kitchen to eat, afraid to come out and be implicated by her sister-in-law and scolded by her mother again.
Sure enough, upon hearing the word "suspect," Grandma Xia exploded. In her heart, Yang Yunxia was even more hateful than Xia Guofang and Xu Yumei.
"Bullshit! My Xiao Chu has lived an honest and upright life. What suspicion could she possibly have that she needs you to clear her name?"
"Do you think everyone is like your Yang family, coveting other people's property? Your own nephews are good-for-nothings, stealing chickens and dogs, and you still have the nerve to doubt my granddaughter."
Yang Yunxia's face flushed red and then turned pale. She was both angry and annoyed. This was the first time in all the years of their marriage that her mother-in-law had spoken to her so bluntly.
"Mom, aren't you going too far by saying that?"
Grandma Xia didn't want to save face for Yang Yunxia. She had been too accommodating to Yang Yunxia's feelings in the past, which emboldened the Yang family. Now Yang Yunxia wanted to harm Xiao Chu. Don't think she didn't know Yang Yunxia was holding a grudge against Xiao Chu for hitting her mother last year.
"Where did I say something wrong? Your mother didn't covet the house and money of the National Security Bureau last year, your niece Yang Liyan didn't covet Xiaoyan's job and cause her to have a premature birth, and your nephew didn't steal or harm others and get arrested and imprisoned."
Yang Yunxia was speechless, and looked pleadingly at her father-in-law, but Grandpa Xia looked away when he met her gaze. Yang Yunxia then looked at Xia Yichu, picked up her soda and drank it, pretending not to have seen anything.
"Mom, I know you've always looked down on my family, but..."
"You're mistaken. I've never looked down on your family. The problem isn't that your family is poor, but that they have character flaws."
Yang Yunxia felt ashamed after being scolded by her mother-in-law, and just as the atmosphere became awkward, Xu Yumei returned, carrying a lot of things, and walked in.
The moment she stepped inside, five pairs of eyes turned to her. Hearing the door open, Xia Guofang also came out of the kitchen.
