After lunch, Xia Qianqian pestered Xia Ruyu to find the village chief and clan members to resolve Xia Yu's issue to avoid any further complications.
Fan Ming supported Xia Ruyu very much and immediately notified the Xia family to gather for discussion.
"I won't go!" Grandma Xia insisted. She was usually good at throwing tantrums, but this time she was facing her own daughter, so she really couldn't do it and simply didn't show up.
Old Man Xia agreed with this and notified his family members not to attend the meeting. Humph, if they don't go to discuss it, Xia Yu will still be theirs.
Xia Dingfeng and Yang had another idea: send Xia Yu away, so that his two sons would be the legal heirs of the old Xia family, and Xia Qianqian would thank them!
Xia Dingfeng said: "Mom, Xia Yu is at my eldest sister-in-law's house now. If we don't go, it means we are giving up our custody rights."
"Nonsense! If we don't agree, can they still forcibly take us away?" Grandma Xia said with a stern face.
"Mom, it's our turn to go and snatch the person away." Xia Dingfeng reminded her, "Mom, Ruyu is here, do you dare to snatch her away? Even if Ruyu goes back, can you beat Xia Qianqian?"
Grandma Xia: “…”
Yang said, "I think it's not a good idea to just run away. Let's have a good talk!"
"Third sister-in-law, you are hoping that Xia Yu will be sent away, right? Don't you know what kind of temper Ruyu has? It will be useless if we go there!" Xia Dinghai said angrily.
"Second brother, Yu'er is not at home now. If you don't show up, you won't have any room to fight for it." Yang said.
Song, who was unable to give birth to a son and abused her stepson, dared not say a word and just stood there with her head hung.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and everyone in the old Xia family was shocked. Grandma Xia cleverly said, "I will pretend to be sick, and you go open the door. No matter who comes, tell them that I am dying of illness!"
"Okay." Song immediately started to act and went to open the door crying.
Xia Ruyu stood outside the door, looking at Song with an expressionless face. Song stopped crying in surprise: "Sister?"
"Who died? Who are you mourning for, sister-in-law?" Xia Ruyu asked. Before Song could answer, she had already given the answer, "Is it our mother who is pretending to be sick? Let her get up. This trick won't work on me!"
Song: “…”
"I'm giving you face now and coming here alone. Can I still enter this house?" Xia Ruyu asked forcefully.
Song stepped back repeatedly: "Of course you can go in, of course you can go in..."
Xia Ruyu strode in and went straight to Grandma Xia's room. Old man Xia stopped her at the door: "Ruyu, your mother is ill..."
"Don't pretend with me. I know my mother's tricks." Xia Ruyu sneered.
Xia Dingfeng smiled shyly: "Sister, you are here. Where are Qianqian and sister-in-law?"
"I came here alone to save face for the Xia family. I'm not here to discuss anything, I'm here to inform you. Xia Yu will be raised by my sister-in-law from now on!" Xia Ruyu took out the notarized document written by the village chief and slapped it on the table, "Sign!"
The momentum is as strong as a rainbow.
Old Man Xia's face turned pale and blue: "Ruyu, do you still respect your parents? How can you, a married daughter, be the head of the family?"
"Dad, are you going to be estranged from me?" Xia Ruyu asked, "Okay, then I won't come back from now on. Don't count on me for anything. I'll have someone send Shanshan back tomorrow."
Song was anxious and said quickly: "Sister, this matter has nothing to do with Shanshan. Shanshan is still counting on you to help find a good marriage!"
"Xia Qianqian said that she wants to send Xia Yu to school to study and take the imperial examination. Now that you have agreed, there is still some affection between you. If you continue to be deadlocked, you will not even be relatives! Xia Qianqian is a friend of the prefectural governor! Think about it yourselves, how will the government rule?"
