Xia Tiezhu ignored his elder brother's gloomy expression, walked up to Yuan Qiu with a smile, and said, "Wu Qiu, you have become more and more beautiful in the past few years. My third uncle can hardly recognize you."
Yuan Qiu raised his eyes and looked at the flattering Xia Tiezhu in front of him, with a sarcastic smile on his lips and a sharp insight into people's hearts in his eyes. He said calmly: "How many years?"
Xia Tiezhu was slightly stunned: "What?"
"I mean, Uncle San hasn't seen Yuan Qiu in a few years?"
Xia Tiezhu was speechless, how many years? He really couldn't remember this clearly. In his impression, he seemed to have only met Xia Yuanqiu once or twice, when she was very young.
"Don't remember? Then when my parents passed away three years ago, did my third uncle ever meet Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hao?"
Xia Tiezhu frowned, with an embarrassed look on his face. His brother passed away, leaving two orphans behind, but he avoided them because he was heartless and unrighteous.
Yuan Qiu raised his eyebrows and said: "Last year Yuan Hao was seriously ill and my uncle refused to help. I took Yuan Hao to the town to find you, but you said you didn't know me and asked your third aunt to take me and me with a broom. Yuan Hao, who was seriously ill, rushed out, and I guess my third uncle doesn’t remember this either.”
How could Xia Tiezhu not remember that that day happened to be the day when he was paid. He was about to take his family out for a nice meal, but he didn't expect to meet Yuan Qiu's sister and brother at the door of his house. Although he did not recognize Yuan Qiu, But Yuan Hao looked exactly like his dead second brother when he was a child, how could he not recognize him.
Seeing that Xia Tiezhu was silent and his brows were so furrowed that he could kill a fly, Xia Tieniu snorted: "You said you won't let me speak. If I don't speak anymore, we will be kicked out."
Xia Tieniu glared at his third brother, then turned to look at Yuan Qiu: "Bad girl, it's been so long, why are you settling old scores? We are all members of the same family, how can we write two Xia Zi in one stroke?"
Yuan Qiu sneered: "Didn't you say a while ago that I am not a member of the Xia family? Why am I a member of the Xia family again now? Is it possible that, seeing that my life is getting better now, you plan to admit that I am a member of the Xia family again?"
A few words pierced the thin window paper, but Xia Tieniu was not ashamed at all. Instead, he raised his voice and said: "Stop talking nonsense, when did I stop recognizing you? It's my second brother who will You raised him single-handedly, and even though you didn't show any kindness, raising kindness is greater than giving kindness, so you should repay him."
Yuan Qiu shrugged: "You should repay the kindness of raising me. You two don't need to worry about it."
"Is this how you repay? Two elders stand in front of you and don't even look at you. Is this considered repayment?"
"I think you may have misunderstood. When I talk about repayment, I don't mean you two. Have you ever raised me and Yuan Hao? Even if it's just for a day, have you raised us for a day? In terms of repayment, It’s not about you anyway, right?”
Xia Tieniu said solemnly: "Why can't we discuss it? Your father is my second brother. Since the second brother is gone, you should repay me for your kindness."
"Now I know he is your second brother? Did you have any involvement in my father's funeral? Did you come to see my father for the last time? When he was buried, did you come to see him off? "Her eyes became sharper and colder. It was really off-putting for her to talk to such a cold-blooded, ruthless and unjust person.
Seeing that Xia Tieniu was also blocked and had nothing to say, Xia Tiezhu could only smile apologetically and said: "Yuan Qiu, I know you have resentment in your heart, but these things have passed after all. We are still a family. These days we have to Keep on living, now you need help, we can spare no effort to help you, whether it's you or us, isn't it beautiful."
