Xia Yiwei came in and was welcomed by everyone, and told her to have a seat quickly, “Come on, Yi Wei, sit next to Big Brother.”
“How can Yi Wei sit still? She is afraid that old grandpa will embarrass her boyfriend.” The second child of the Xia Family joked. He and Xia Lingxiao were both sons of Xia Jinyuan’s uncle. They were now the deputy captain of a warship, and we’re the only ones of the Xia Family that were in the navy.
Xia Yiwei was the only daughter of the Xia Family, she was not too young, but it was only this year that she brought back a cheeky boyfriend. Old grandpa was very worried, so he had to test him.
“Who says I’m afraid that old grandpa will embarrass him? I am worried that he will annoy old grandpa. I don’t want him to trouble our family during the New Year.”
Xia Yiwei saw that the old grandma was not there, nor was her aunt Xia Sujun, so she sat down and asked, “Where is old grandma and aunt?”
“Aunt Xiu is in the flower room; she said that the “hexagonal red” has bloomed, and the old grandma happily pulled my mother along. I am grateful for the timely blooming of the camellia so that I can be free for a while.”
A girl with heroic eyebrows and beautiful facial features of about twenty-three or twenty-four years old smiled and winked at Xia Yiwei, seeming to convey a certain meaning.
Sitting next to her, a handsome young man directly raised his hand and flicked her forehead. He smiled and said, “You rest well; if mom doesn’t see you when she’s back, you’ll have a headache afterward.”
The man’s words made the room burst into laughter.
Old Grandpa Xia, who had four sons and one daughter, has about nine grandsons and granddaughters.
He had six grandsons; Xia Jinyuan was the youngest, excluding his other grandson Zhou Yichen.
His only granddaughters were Xia Yiwei and Zhou Yijin.
Other than Xia Jinyuan, Xia Yuzheng also did not return to the old house this year for the New Year. The rest of his grandchildren all gathered together; it was so lively.
Zhou Yijin, who was knocked on her head by her elder brother, stared at him in dissatisfaction, and then she let out a “hmph,” chewing the melon seeds in her mouth faster.
“You ah, don’t go out and trouble, mom. Du Jiayi just said a few words to other people, and then you’re so angry about it? From the 30th night of the new year to the second day of the new year, tsk tsk, you’re too petty.”
Zhou Yichen unceremoniously exposed his sister’s shortcomings in front of his cousins.
He was the teacher of the command school, he had a gentle temperament, he spoke calmly, and had a sense of rhythm, “Didn’t you already know who she is? It’s none of your business if she wants to talk so much.”
“Why is it not my business? She was talking about my good friend Wei Jiayue, how can I not be angry? That insidious, cunning, hypocritical, and hateful woman, just looking at her makes me lose my appetite!”
After speaking, she made a nausea action. That kid-like behavior made Xia Yiwei and the others laugh hysterically.
Zhou Yijin was actually the youngest of the siblings. No matter how cheeky Xia Jinyuan was at that time, he had never bullied her.
After graduating from university at the age of 22, she signed up for the army without telling her aunt. She was assigned to the Nanguang Military Region together with her good friend Wei Jiayue without relying on family relations.
They knew about the relationship between the Xia Family and the Du Family. Mentioning Du Jiayi now, the other siblings would naturally help Zhou Yijin.
The second child, Xia Junbai, said jokingly, “Would you like to say hello to Brother Yu Zheng and ask him to transfer you from the Nanguang Military Region? So you won’t be pissed off by Du Jiayi.”
