Xia Qingyuan originally didn't want to talk about this matter as soon as she came back.
But before she came back, Gong Lianxin called her and said that someone from the Zhang family would be coming to take Xia Sitong back in the next two days.
The Zhang family wanted to make Xia Jingchen visit their home during the Chinese New Year and bring some things with him.
Xia Jingchen ignored their overt and covert "hints" and made the Zhang family lose their temper, saying that he would take their children back.
Shen Yizhou wanted to persuade her to slow down, but when the words reached her lips, she swallowed them again: "Okay, I'll call him."
Xia Jingchen was outside with his children and greeting guests. He was a little surprised when Shen Yizhou said that Xia Qingyuan was looking for him.
He said to Xia Sitong: "Tongtong, take your sister and brother to play, while dad talks to aunt about something."
The children were very happy to see their aunt and uncle back, but when they heard that their aunt was not feeling well, they obediently did not disturb her.
Xia Sitong nodded. Perhaps he had been suffering from physical loss for a long time. During the past few days in the Xia family, the flesh on his body had not grown back and he was still very thin.
She responded obediently: "Okay."
So he took Xia Siyan to play with his two cousins.
Xia Jingchen came into the room, moved a stool and sat beside the bed: "Are you feeling better?"
He knew that Xia Qingyuan suffered from motion sickness. This time during the Chinese New Year, except for Wang Ping who didn't say anything, they all unanimously told Xia Qingyuan and his wife not to rush back.
The journey is long and tiring.
Xia Qingyuan sat up against the pillow: "It's an old problem."
In the past, I could almost catch my breath by lying down for half a day, but I don't know how long it will take now.
Fortunately, she only has discomfort in her stomach and chest, and the children are still fine.
Shen Yizhou closed the door for the two of them: "You guys chat, I'll go out to greet the guests."
As wise as Shen Yizhou, he has already guessed why there are so many people at home today.
First, he stayed up late to finish the work, and then he devoted himself to taking care of Xia Qingyuan for the past two days. He was also very tired.
But if Wang Ping wants face, he will definitely cooperate.
I just hope that she and Xia Qingyuan will be fine, and that the mother and daughter will not have any bad feelings because of this matter.
He could see that Xia Qingyuan was in a bad state some time ago, mainly because she was worried about dealing with Xia Sitong's affairs all day long, which caused the mother and daughter to turn against each other.
Xia Qingyuan came back this time with the determination to break the boat.
He felt really sorry for her solitary and courageous attitude.
When Wang Ping saw Shen Yizhou coming out, the smile on her face immediately became more sincere: "Look, Yizhou is coming out."
She stood up and waved for him to come over: "This is Sister Hua from next door, do you remember?
And this is Uncle Hong, the grandfather in the village. When you and Qingyuan got married, he came to drink your wedding wine.
…”
Shen Yizhou has an excellent memory. He remembers everyone Wang Ping talks about, and follows her words to tell interesting stories from the past.
His humble and courteous attitude greatly satisfied the villagers who had just thought that he would not recognize anyone since he became an official.
It seemed that he was really worried about his wife and didn't say more to them.
Xia Youming noticed the tiredness on Shen Yizhou's eyebrows and winked at Wang Ping, indicating that she was almost done.
Wang Ping glanced at him before reluctantly giving up.

In the room, Xia Qingyuan looked at Xia Jingchen with burning eyes: "Second brother, actually I came back this time mainly for your sake."
"For me?" Xia Jingchen didn't react, "What's wrong with me?"
Xia Qingyuan pondered: "Before I tell you, I want to confess something to you: a few days ago, I asked my sister-in-law to help take the hair of you and the two children."
Xia Jingchen's eyes narrowed slightly and he was stunned for a moment, as if he had guessed something.
He swallowed: "Did you... take it for testing?"
Xia Qingyuan nodded: "Yes.
Now that the results are out, it’s up to you whether you want to know and how to do it.
But first of all, your thoughts may not affect my approach."
She will respect Xia Jingchen's decision, but will not let the Zhang family continue to enslave her family.
If anyone is willing to continue like this, she will take away anyone who is willing to leave with her.
By doing this for this family, she thought she had already lived up to her grandfather and her own conscience.
Xia Qingyuan just looked at him quietly, waiting for his answer.
Looking at Xia Qingyuan's expression, Xia Jingchen had already roughly guessed it.
He took a deep breath and said, "Just tell me."
Xia Qingyuan said: "Second brother, Tongtong is not your biological child."
Even though he was mentally prepared, Xia Qingyuan's words still struck Xia Jingchen's ears like a bolt from the blue.
He had no impression of anything Zhang Yujiao said that night.
He thought at the time that no girl would risk her innocence.
Unexpectedly, I was still too naive.
He clenched his fists and bit his cheek tightly without making a sound, his heart was in turmoil.
Xia Qingyuan continued: "I don't know if you will blame me for making my own decisions, but I don't want our family to continue to be sucked by the Zhang family and never live in peace."
Xia Jingchen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Qingyuan, I don't blame you."
If he is an older brother, why should his sister worry about it?
It was his uselessness that brought down the whole family.
Seeing that Xia Jingchen was not really angry with him, Xia Qingyuan's worries disappeared.
She said: "Next, how are you going to deal with this matter?
If you want Tongtong, I will find a way to solve it for you; if you don't want it, then I will completely cut off the relationship with the Zhang family."
Xia Qingyuan's words have ended, it depends on Xia Jingchen's choice.
Xia Jingchen's whole brain was in chaos at the moment, almost about to explode. No matter which choice he made, it was extremely difficult for him.
The nearly thirty-year-old man showed his helplessness in front of Xia Qingyuan for the first time.
He lowered his head, held his hair tightly with both hands, and pulled it hard as if to vent his hatred.
Xia Qingyuan did not rush him and waited quietly.
I don't know how long it took, but he raised his head with red eyes: "Qingyuan, I want to keep Tongtong."
Xia Jingchen's answer was within Xia Qingyuan's expectation.
If Xia Sitong had a good life in the Zhang family, he might not say this.
Children are innocent of the mistakes adults make.
They also saw with their own eyes that if Xia Sitong was left in the Zhang family again, she would probably not survive to adulthood.
Even though he is not Xia Jingchen's biological child, our relationship with him for more than four years has been filled with sincerity and devotion.
Xia Qingyuan smiled and said: "Okay, we will help you."
This is the second brother in her impression, a loving and righteous second brother.
Xia Jingchen said: "Don't tell mom that Tongtong is not my biological child.
I will explain it to her personally when I have a chance later."
This is his matter, Xia Qingyuan has already helped him with this, and he doesn't want her and Wang Ping to get hurt anymore because of this matter.
I'm afraid that if Wang Ping does something completely contrary to his and Xia Qingyuan's wishes after knowing the truth, things will become more complicated.
Xia Sitong called his father for four years. He could not cruelly abandon her even though he knew that she was not doing well.
Xia Sitong, he must.
Xia Qingyuan nodded: "Yes, I know."
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the sound of porcelain falling to the ground was heard outside the door.
The door of the room was pushed open from the outside, and Wang Ping's face was in disbelief.
She rushed in and stared at the two of them: "What are you talking about? Tell me clearly!"
