Chapter 277 Grandma Xia Manipulates Yang Yunxia
"Xiao Chu, take good care of yourself. Your grandfather and I are going back now."
More than an hour later, all the guests left, leaving only the Xia family, the Zhou family, the best man and maid of honor, Xia Guofang's family, and Grandma Xia, who was tired and wanted to go home to rest.
"Okay, Grandpa and Grandma, I'm going back to Pengcheng tonight, so I won't be visiting you later."
"You've had a long day too, go home and rest for a bit, you don't need to come to our place. Zhiheng, take us back, Yunxia, you come back with us too."
Grandma Xia just learned from Pei Shizhou that he was going to Pengcheng with his granddaughter, and she felt very reassured with him by her side.
"Okay, Grandma."
The child is asleep. Xia Zhiheng just took Su Qingyan and her child home first.
"Mom, I want to go to Zhiqian's house. Those two young people don't know anything, and there are so many things to do at home that I need to take care of."
Yang Yunxia wanted to take a break today during the wedding. She felt dizzy and hadn't had a good night's sleep in the past two weeks.
"No need, I'm very tired today. You need to go back and take care of us. Zhiqian and Aying have Chunhua with them, so you don't need to worry about them."
Grandma Xia was worried about Yang Yunxia staying behind. She had never wanted her grandson to marry Miaoying in the first place. She thought Yang Yunxia was wicked and worried that she might scheme against people again.
"Guofang, Luohao, Mom isn't feeling well, and I've been taking care of her for half a month. Today is Zhiqian's wedding, could you help me take care of Mom for a bit?"
"Sister-in-law, sure, I'll take care of Mom for the next few days."
Xia Guofang didn't have time to stop him; Luo Hao had already spoken. He had only been back for a short time and didn't know what Wang Fengxian had done to her older brother. Her mother was now treating Yang Yunxia this way to vent her anger on behalf of her older brother.
"Okay, thank you."
"What's so good about it? Xiao Kai was frightened this time. It's been many days and he's still listless. Why don't you stay home and keep him company? Why are you taking care of this old woman like me?"
"Yang Yunxia, if you dislike me and don't want to take care of me, just say so. There's no need for this."
Xia Yichu then noticed that Luo Yuekai was huddled next to Xia Guofang, looking timid and unlike his usual lively self. He even seemed to have lost some weight, and she hadn't heard him speak all day. She wondered what her grandmother meant by "fright."
"Mom, I didn't mean that. It's just that Zhiqian is getting married today, and I thought..."
"Zhiheng, take us back."
Grandma Xia didn't give Yang Yunxia a chance to explain. She leaned on her cane and had Grandpa Xia help her walk away. Xia Zhiheng quickly followed, and Yang Yunxia followed with a livid face.
After Xia Zhiqian and Zhou Miaoying escorted the Zhou family home, they came in and noticed the strange atmosphere. They had run into his mother at the door earlier, but she hadn't responded when they called her.
"Zhiqian, Miaoying, your aunt and I will head back now."
Seeing his mother-in-law leave angrily, Luo Hao figured she was probably upset because she felt sorry for Xiao Kai. Xiao Kai had been kidnapped by Xu Yumei's men a while ago, and he hadn't been in the mood for pleasantries; he just wanted to get home and be with his son.
"Alright, Uncle, I'll see you off."
"No need, family doesn't need to see us off. You take care of the others."
"Okay, then Aunt and Uncle, please take it easy."
After Luo Hao's family left, only the four best men, Xia Zhiqian and his wife, Xia Yichu and her bridesmaid, and two drivers remained. Gu Yunting left not long after the banquet began.
"Brother Li, please take Li Hongxue, Jian Mingshun, and Jiaying back."
Xia Zhiqian said to one of the drivers that, apart from Xia Yichu and He Jiaying, these two drivers were the only ones who hadn't been drinking.
Su Lihong is the quiet truck driver in Xia Zhiqian's fleet. Chen Xuejian is also Xia Zhiqian's employee and the best man who is one year younger than He Jiaying. Jiang Mingde is Xia Zhiqian's friend who sells furniture.
"it is good"
"Wait a minute, Ah Ying, I can go back by myself, no need to see me off."
There were four grown men in the car, and she was the only girl. He Jiaying didn't want to go back with them.
"Jiaying, wait a minute, it's Zhiqian who didn't think things through."
Zhou Miaoying grabbed her, not letting her leave, and Xia Zhiqian realized that his arrangement was indeed inappropriate.
Just as he was about to say something, Jiang Mingde looked outside and said, "Zhiqian, my friend is here to pick me up. I'm going home first."
"I send you"
"No need, please stay here."
"Okay, slow down."
Jiang Mingde nodded, waved, and left. Xia Zhiqian then looked at the driver, Brother Li.
"Brother Li, you take Lihong and Xuejian back first."
"it is good"
After the three people left, only Xia Yichu, Pei Shizhou, He Jiaying, and Xia Zhiqian and his wife remained. There were five people in total, and one car was just the right size.
"Jiaying, I'm sorry, I didn't think of that earlier. We'll take you home. Shizhou, Xiaochu, let's go! Brother Wang, could you please give us a ride to the West District and take Jiaying home first?"
He Jiaying rents an apartment with her cousin in Xicheng District, not far from her workplace.
It would take about an hour to get there from here. Xia Zhiqian felt bad for letting her take a taxi back, so He Jiaying went the same way as Su Lijian and Chen Xuejian.
Xia Zhiqian's convoy was in the West District, which is why he arranged for her to go back with them.
However, the wedding room of Xia Zhiqian and his family is not in the same direction as the home of Pei Shizhou and Xia Yichu.
"Zhiqian, don't worry about us, Xiaochu and I can take a taxi back."
The West District was in the opposite direction from them, and they had to take a flight that night. Pei Shizhou didn't want Xia Yichu to be too tired. He also wanted to spend time alone with Xia Yichu and didn't want to waste time with them.
"Fine, watch your step, or my uncle and Uncle Lin won't let you off the hook, and neither will my brother and I."
He Jiaying was disappointed when she heard that Pei Shizhou wouldn't ride in the same car as her, and after hearing Xia Zhiqian's words, she had a bad feeling.
"Xiao Chu, call me when you get to Pengcheng. You know my home phone number."
"Sister-in-law, it's not convenient tonight, so I won't call."
On Xia Zhiqian and Zhou Miaoying's wedding night, he had no time to answer her call.
"Xiao Chu, let's go." Pei Shizhou pulled Xia Yichu away.
"Pei Shizhou, let go of me!" Xia Zhiqian said angrily from behind.
"Alright, you were like this when we were dating. Jiaying, let's go."
"Ah Ying, are Xiao Chu and Xiao Chu dating?"
"Yes, that's how clingy we are when we first start dating, not wanting to be apart. Shi Zhou is quite busy at work, and he even said he'd drive Xiao Chu back to Pengcheng tonight."
Before leaving, Gu Yunting complained that Pei Shizhou had dumped all the company's affairs on him and was just going off to date.
He Jiaying was heartbroken; she had finally fallen for a man, only to find he already had a boyfriend. She always felt she was no less attractive than Zhou Miaoying, only that her family background was less favorable.
Her father passed away when she was young, and her mother raised her and her brother on her own. She dropped out of school before finishing elementary school to help her mother with chores, and at the age of eighteen, she came to Kyoto to work with other villagers.
Her younger brother will graduate from university in two more years. Once her family graduates, things will be better, and she can start thinking about her own marriage.
Having grown up in hardship, she wouldn't consider any man who liked her if he wasn't well-off. Pei Shizhou was different. He Jiaying heard that one of the wedding cars today was his, and learned from others that he owned his own company at a young age.
"It's just dating; whether we'll get married in the end is still unknown."
He Jiaying's eyes lit up upon hearing this. That's right! Xia Yichu is young and still in university. Pei Shizhou is already twenty-five; he's willing to wait, just in case his family isn't!
"Zhiqian, Shizhou is doing well. Can't you hope they're doing well?"
Xia Zhiqian pursed his lips and stopped talking, opening the car door for Zhou Miaoying to get in.
