Mingzhu thought there was something wrong with Third Aunt's health, so she stood up and asked, "What's wrong with Third Aunt?"

"It's not your third aunt. Something bad happened to her family. Someone is coming to Xia Xia's family again."

Mingzhu frowned when she heard this: "Xia Xia's house? Someone else is here?"

"Yes, you haven't been here these past few days, so I don't know. On the fourth day after you left, Xia Xia's father came over with her stepmother."

Mingzhu wondered: "Didn't her father stop interacting with Xia Xia a long time ago?"

"Yes, but they didn't know where they heard it. Xia Xia married into the famous Jiang family in the family compound, so they found her again."

Fang Shuyu talked about what happened in the past few days with a serious face.

Guan Xia's father Guan Zhisheng and stepmother Zhang Chunju would appear that day, which was also unexpected by Guan Xia.

Jiang Qi picked her up from get off work and returned to the family home. The two of them went to her grandfather's house to say hello. When they entered, they saw her father and stepmother, whom she had not seen for a long time.

Guan Xia's fists hardened when she saw the two of them sitting on the sofa, drinking tea face to face with her grandfather.

She stepped forward to ask Guan Zhisheng to leave, but Zhang Chunju stood up and asked her hypocritically why she didn't discuss such a big matter like marriage with her parents.

Guan Xia asked coldly: "My mother passed away, how can I discuss it with her?"

Zhang Chunju had tears in her eyes: "Xia Xia, your mother and I are good friends. Your mother is gone, and your father and I are also sad. But your father is still alive and well, and you still have me. Although I am just a Stepmother, but stepmother is also a mother, you must tell us when you get married."

Guan Xia sneered: "Back then, when you were behind my mother's back and messing around with my father, why didn't you remember that you were my mother's good friend? You forced my father to drive me and my mother out of my house under the pretext of being pregnant. When we were in the old house, why didn't we say that my stepmother was also my mother? Now that I'm married, you guys are running out to pretend to be elders? I don't have an elder like you, so don't make yourself proud either."

She said and looked at Guan Zhisheng: "Mr. Guan, it was you who said it back then. From now on, my mother and I's affairs have nothing to do with you. As a man, don't deny it. This is my husband's house. Please leave!"

Guan Zhisheng looked unhappy. He wanted to get up and walk, but Zhang Chunju held him down.

The tears on Zhang Chunju's face had disappeared and she ignored Guan Xia. Instead, she looked at her grandfather: "Mr. Jiang, Xia Xia is in trouble with her father because she is ignorant. Please don't mind. The child is Good boy..."

Grandpa looked at her coldly: "Of course we know that Xia Xia is an excellent child, otherwise we would not let my grandson marry her."

Zhang Chunju smiled and clapped her hands: "Yes, the child is a good child, and it is fate that he can enter the Jiang family. But, old man, since ancient times, men have been married to women. There is no such thing as such an unclear marriage without going through the elders. She Although my mother is gone, her father is still fine. I would like to ask, has our family given any betrothal gifts? How much has it been given? To whom?"

When Guan Xia heard this, she understood what Zhang Chunju meant.

She stepped forward and pulled Zhang Chunju out to pull someone out, but Zhang Chunju pulled out her hand and sat on the sofa: "Xia Xia, don't be ignorant. Your father and I are doing this for your own good. You are so rude." I don’t know if I’m married, but if I’m bullied by my husband’s family in the future…”

"As long as you don't come to hurt me, no one in the world will hurt me! Mr. Guan, I ask you again, will you leave? If you don't leave, I will call the police to arrest you."

Before Guan Zhisheng could speak, Zhang Chunju smiled and said: "Xia Xia, why are you so restless? This is your father. Even if the police come, they can't change this blood relationship. This is your husband's family, and this is your father's family." It’s our in-laws’ home, so why can’t we just come and visit?”

Guan Xia's face froze with anger, but the old man winked at Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi grabbed Guan Xia.

The old man smiled at Zhang Chunju: "Our family is not uncouth. Since the marriage is concluded, there will naturally be no shortage of things to give. We specially sent someone to check. Mr. Guan, you When you divorce your lover, you give Xia Xia to your lover, right?"

Zhang Chunju calmly said: "Old man, I gave it to you, but Xia Xia is still Guan Zhisheng's daughter. She..."

The old man's eyes flashed: "I'm talking to Xia Xia's father. Ms. Zhang, you and Xia Xia are not related by blood, so it's best not to interrupt."

Seeing the old man's cold eyes, Zhang Chunju calmed down a bit and pinched Guan Zhisheng's leg.

Guan Zhisheng could only look at the old man and nodded: "Yes, when I divorced, Xia Xia was given to her mother."

Mr. Jiang nodded: "Then you started a family again, and you had no contact with Xia Xia and her daughter, right?"

"I……"

Guan Xia interrupted, "Grandpa, that's it."

The old man continued: "Xia Xia and my grandson fell in love freely under the introduction of my other grandson-in-law. When they were together, Xia Xia was alone. Our family gave me the bride price, the house and all the furniture directly. Granddaughter-in-law, this is no problem."

Guan Zhisheng nodded again, and was about to speak, but Zhang Chunju looked at Guan Xia: "Xia Xia, this is what's wrong with you. Your father is still alive, and you decided to get married alone, and you also took the gift? Are you doing this? Slap your dad in the face and say your dad is useless?"

Guan Xia smiled: "My father has long been useless to me."

Zhang Chunju was annoyed and pushed Guan Zhisheng: "Listen to what your daughter said about you. You are mute, but you can still speak. What you said when you came here, you will say what you say now!"

Guan Zhisheng sighed and looked at Guan Xia: "Xia Xia, what your aunt and I mean is...since your marriage is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed, then as a father, I have to help you. Keeping the bride price is a tradition since ancient times, you see..."

Guan Xia didn't say anything, just stared at Guan Zhisheng coldly.

Guan Zhisheng felt guilty after being seen, so he could only cast his gaze on Jiang Qi's face again: "This is my son-in-law Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, this matter... how about you advise Xia Xia..."

"Mr. Guan, I'm sorry. I can't persuade my wife. My wife has the final say in my family. Everything I have is now in my wife's hands. I listen to whatever she says. I am just like you now. , just listen to your wife.”

Guan Zhisheng's face stiffened and he looked sideways at Zhang Chunju.

Zhang Chunju glared at him, seeing that he was useless, she said coldly: "Xiao Jiang, I don't care what is going on in your family. I am also the daughter-in-law of the Guan family now. I only care about the Guan family's affairs. When the Guan family marries a daughter, the bride price will be paid." We just can't keep it in our daughter's hands, so we have to take back the gift money.

Today... you may not be ready either, so let's do it this way. We'll pick it up another day. I hope you won't be so pushy by then. After all, we are a respectable family, and you probably don't want to see me causing trouble just for such a small amount of money. . "
