The sound of a car stalling came from the door. It was Xia Wenyue who was back. She also bought a car this year for convenience.
When Xia Wenyue saw a stranger when she entered the door, she subconsciously put on a smile and said, "Hey, are there guests?"
She obviously didn't recognize Xia Li and Wang Tao, and she had never seen Xia Bao before.
"Second aunt," Xia Li greeted uncomfortably, "I am Xia Li."
Wang Tao said diligently, "Second aunt, I am Lili's son-in-law. Wang Tao, have you just come back?"
Xia Wenyue was stunned for a moment. She looked at Xia Hai and the others before she realized who the person in front of them was. The expression on her face softened, "How did you find this place?"
Wang Tao said with a smile, "Second aunt, your business is so big, the bosses praise you everywhere, and I hear it occasionally."
"When I heard that the names matched, and that there were three girls named Mao, the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to come over and have a look."
Speaking of this, he said excitedly, "I didn't expect it to be true!"
He said, handing over the gift in his hand, "The first one who came to the door didn't have anything good, just a little thought."
It was a few boxes of good cigarettes and good wine, as well as sea cucumbers in high-end gift boxes. "I know that uncle is here too, so these sea cucumbers are for you to eat. They are very nourishing."
The uncle said, "I'm determined."
Wang Tao said with a smile, "If I had known that the second aunt was also in Yan City, we should have come over and walked around. After all, we are a family."
It is said that you should not hit someone with a smiling face. Wang Tao's words were nice and his attitude was good. No matter how uncomfortable Xia Wenyue was in her heart, she could not say anything. She looked at Xia Li who was holding the child and said politely, "Sit down and have a rest first, Huilan." , go and pour water for the guests.”
Xia Li was obviously relieved, and the smile on Wang Tao's face deepened, and he said enthusiastically, "I heard that Sister Huimei is getting married. If you need any help, just ask."
"I'm a rough guy, and I can't do much else, but I have a lot of brothers under me, so just leave the hard work, running errands and the like to me."
"If you need a wedding car, I also have a few good cars here."
Xia Wenyue said politely, "No, everything is almost ready. You can just come over on the wedding day. It will be at the Victoria Hotel."
Just as he was talking, the sound of a car parking was heard outside, and soon the children cheered excitedly.
"uncle!"
"what is this?"
"Uncle Ning!"
Wang Tao, who had just sat down, immediately stood up when he heard Xiao Feng's name, subconsciously rubbed his hands and looked out the door;
Xia Bao was much more straightforward. Not only did he stand up and poke his head around, but he also walked out unconsciously, as if he couldn't wait to know who the visitor was.
Xia Mian narrowed her eyes...
Ning Shaobai had already come in surrounded by children. Today was the weekend. He was dressed casually, wearing a cotton T-shirt, casual shorts, a pair of sneakers, and a large foam box in his arms.
Xia Mian stepped forward and asked, "What is this?"
Ning Shaobai nodded to the people in the yard as a greeting, and then walked to the kitchen with the box in his arms, "Lychee."
The children immediately cheered and ran to the kitchen.
At this time, lychees were still rare in the north. Even Chenchen had never eaten them a few times. The few Mao Zhishan brought back two days ago were gone after so many people had two or three of them each, and they didn't even enjoy them to the fullest.
Unexpectedly, Ning Shaobai brought back another box.
Wang Tao looked at Ning Shaobai's back disappearing behind the kitchen door curtain, and confirmed with Xia Wenyue in confusion, "Is that Xia Mian's partner? Young Master Ning?"
Xia Wenyue narrowed her eyes. After they met, they never said anything about Xia Mian having a partner.
and…
"Young Master Ning?"
This is the name of people in the circle. They usually call Dr. Ning after Xia Mian. People in the hospital also call him Ning Bo. Only people in the circle call him Ning Bo. Wang Tao looks like he has a little money, but he is far from home. The upper class circles are still thousands of miles away, how could they possibly know this title
Xia Bao's face was full of disdain, "Brother-in-law, your friend is really teasing you, right? Does he look like a wealthy young man who earns 100 million a year?"
"The style is not as good as yours, brother-in-law."
really.
Xia Wenyue narrowed her eyes and asked Xia Bao, "Who said he is the young master of a wealthy family?"
Xia Bao looked at Wang Tao.
Wang Tao obviously felt that he had been cheated, and with a face full of disappointment, he said to Xia Wenyue, "I also heard that Second Aunt, you are great, Xia Mian is even more powerful, and she directly found a wealthy young master as a partner."
"You said he was Mr. Ning, an investor in Mohe, etc., making 100 million a year."
He found that things were different from what he imagined, so he became frank, "Isn't this just curious? The most powerful boss I have ever seen earns tens of millions a year, and that's all, nanny, bodyguard, secretary, etc. When I go out, I’m followed by a group of people, it’s so cool.”
"I haven't seen this wealthy young man who earns 100 million, so I don't want to come and see him."
In the final analysis, I still want to curry favor.
After a brief period of disappointment, Wang Tao quickly accepted the reality.
It is estimated that the fact that Xia Mian's partner is the young master of a wealthy family is like winning the lottery to them. Now that he is just a handsome ordinary person, it makes him more real.
Wang Tao suddenly became less reserved and cautious than before.
After all, his net worth is not bad compared to Xia Wenyue. Among the nouveau riche in the 1990s, contractors accounted for the largest proportion.
He took out a pack of good cigarettes from his pocket, handed it to Uncle Xia and the others, and said with a smile, "That man is indeed a braggart. No matter how beautiful Xia Mian is, she can't find a wealthy young man!"
Xia Li also became visibly relaxed, and she dared to say, "The rich young master's family has so many rules, it would be nice to find an ordinary person." oo-┈→ωωW.ｂＫXＳ.иΣㄒ༊
She obviously still remembered Ning Shaobai's very recognizable face, "Is this the family where Xia Mian saved the child? The person who drove to pick up her and Xiaofeng at home."
"I remember it was a doctor, or a doctor?"
"This is good. A doctor is better than a young master."
Wang Tao also smiled and said, "Yes, the doctor is good. No one is sick. It's great to have someone in the hospital."
He said that he was not polite and sat down to chat with Uncle Xia, Xia Hai and the others. The fat girl in Hongjuan's arms had also been looking at Junjun for a long time. At this time, Xia Li also sat down. The two children looked at each other and soon Playing with each other with their short hands stretched out.
However, Xia Bao, who had been relatively calm before, immediately said impatiently after knowing that there was no profit to be made, "Then when will we return?"
Xia Li frowned and said, "Why did you just come here? Just stay calm."
Xia Bao said disdainfully, "There is no eldest young master, so why stay here? Why don't I just play a few games? I want to go back."
Wang Tao was obviously annoyed with him, "Okay, you can go back first."
Xia Bao said, "Then you give me money and I'll take a taxi back."
Wang Tao happily took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and gave it to him, "Let's go, be careful on the road, we will probably be late coming back tonight, you can go to a restaurant by yourself."
Xia Bao stood up with satisfaction and saw Xia Mian coming out with lychees and placing them on the table. Suddenly, two big hands stretched out and grabbed a large handful with one hand. After grabbing two full hands, they walked out.
Seeing the half-pot of lychees that had fallen down at once, Xiao Feng and Chen Chen, who were running over, were stunned. Apparently they had never seen such an impolite adult.
However, Qiangqiang was very experienced, so he directly picked up a small stick and chased after him, and unexpectedly slapped Xia Bao's wrist. Xia Bao let go in pain, and the lychee immediately rolled to the ground.
Xia Bao rubbed his wrists angrily, "Qiangqiang! You little brat!"
Qiang Qiang made a face at him, "Damn fat man! Shameless! I won't even feed you even if I throw it away!"
Xia Bao raised his leg to chase, but Wang Tao stopped him, "Xia Bao!"
"If you do this again, I will send you to Mingxi County tomorrow!"
Xia Bao sneered, "You give it away. If you take it back, I will tell the Mao family immediately that Mao Huimei is getting married!"
Wang Tao and Xia Li's expressions changed.
Wang Tao said angrily, "Okay, don't even want the five thousand yuan!"
Xia Bao paused for a moment, then snorted coldly, raised his leg, crushed a few lychees scattered around his feet, and walked away.
Several children were so angry when they saw the lychees being trampled that they forced Mao Huizhu and the others to pick up the lychees, and then chased them out. After a while, they heard Xia Bao's screams of pain mixed with angry curses.
Several children snickered.
Wang Tao obviously also felt that he was extremely embarrassed and said angrily, "I don't know how my father-in-law raises children. A bear like Xia Bao is a disaster wherever he goes."
Xia Li sat next to him with an indifferent expression, as if she was not talking about her biological brother.
Xia Wenyue didn't care about this, "What did he mean by telling the Mao family that Huimei was getting married?"
Wang Tao said, "Didn't we hear the news about your second aunt's family? I also heard that Xia Mian is dating a very rich young master, so Xia Bao insisted on coming with her."
"You have also seen his virtues. I didn't want to take him with me. If I take him with me, I will really become a enemy. But he said that if I didn't take him, he would tell the second aunt about your family's news to the Mao family."
Wang Tao said angrily, "Can I let him tell me?"
"Mao Huihe is crazy, and Hao Xufeng is vindictive and lawless. It's okay to tell him."
"I brought him here as a last resort, and then I told him to be obedient throughout the whole process, and I gave him another two thousand yuan."
Then he said, "Second aunt, don't worry about the Mao family. The main reason is that they are afraid that they will cause trouble when Sister Huimei gets married, which will not look good."
"When Sister Huimei's wedding is over, we won't be afraid if they come to Yan City."
"He, the richest man Hao, is also the richest man in Mingxi County. How can we still ask him to run wild in our Yan City?"
It's so awesome that Yan City has become his territory.
No matter what, they finally showed their kindness, and Xia Wenyue didn't want to chase away the guests, so she left them to have dinner.
Wang Tao, Uncle Xia and Xia Hai chatted in the yard, while Xia Mian and Mao Huilan sat in the yard washing vegetables while chatting with their sisters-in-law and Xia Li.
Junjun and Pangpang were already playing together. Xia Li picked the beans neatly in her hand and stared at the child, "Junjun, you are the elder brother, give way to the younger brother."
Junjun said in embarrassment, "But mom, my brother wants to crush the bug to death!"
Upon hearing this, Hongjuan quickly stepped forward and got rid of the bugs in Pangpang's hand, touched Junjun's head and said to Xia Li, "Your Junjun's teaching is really good."
A big smile suddenly appeared on Xia Li's face, "I don't know how much effort it took."
Then she unconsciously talked about the process of raising Junjun, and then Xia Mian realized why she had changed so much.
"... When I was young, I felt that I was very capable, but I would definitely be able to make a name for myself in a big city."
"Only when I got out did I realize how difficult life is. Wang Tao boasted in front of me about how awesome he was, but when he came to Yan City, except for the brothers who followed him, he had to nod and bow to everyone he spoke to."
"I got so many looks on me when I followed him. Anyone except the workers could scold us."
"When I was holding my belly, because I accidentally said the wrong thing, the contractor's mistress scolded me and even encouraged his old man to slap Wang Tao. Finally, I begged grandpa to sue me. The project that grandma finally managed to get is gone."
"As a result, when we were leaving, we saw a young engineer coming over. The foreman was trying to please him. The mistress acted coquettishly and acted like an idiot. As a result, she was scolded. The foreman scolded the mistress all over her face. The scolding was very unpleasant.”
"That's when I really understood that no matter how much money I make, I still have to be educated to be respected." She looked at Xia Mian, with some vicissitudes in her eyes, "Those words I told you when I was a child are really too much. I’m so ignorant. Fortunately, you didn’t listen to me and study hard.”
She only said one thing, but there must have been more than one similar social beating.
"After that, I thought, I must let my son study hard and become a cultural person."
Xia Li looked at Junjun with a loving smile, "It's also my luck. There is a professor living upstairs in the house we bought. Their grandson is about the same age as Junjun, and they know how to teach children."
"When I first learned how to speak, I could recite poems. I was polite and sensible. I would tell anyone who would be promising in the future when I met him. I thought that we Junjun could also grow up like that. But I don't know anything. I always act politely when we meet. Ask people shamelessly.”
"If I don't say that I am a well-educated person, they don't dislike me. They also tell me what books and stories to read to my children every day, and how to teach them to develop good habits from an early age... I also say that parents should also read."
Xia Li sighed, "I have never studied so seriously, but fortunately I have studied, otherwise our handsomeness would have been ruined."
"His storybooks now have half a bookcase. He understands the truth. As long as I talk to him properly, he will obey me." When she said this, she looked at Junjun and was very proud.
Hongjuan said in admiration, "You read him stories every day? Will reading stories make him smart?"
"I read it every day," Xia Li said. "Whether they are smart or not is secondary. The main thing is to teach children to be sensible and reasonable. The professor said, be a human being first, then learn. He also said that parents are their children's best teachers."
"I have a bunch of fables in my mind right now, and I don't even dare to say a single curse word when I quarrel with Wang Tao..."
She enthusiastically shared her parenting experience and recommended parents’ books to Hongjuan and others.
Xia Mian looked at her and couldn't help but sigh. In her previous life, she had also heard people say that the best education is to grow up with children, and children are also teachers of their parents.
But not many people can do it. Unexpectedly, Xia Li did it. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she was severely beaten by society when she was still young and her worldview was not fully formed. After all, she followed Wang Tao to Yan City when she was seventeen. If you think about it, when she gave birth to Junjun, she was But eighteen years old.
Later, in order to educate Junjun, she also learned how to behave again.
This can be considered a blessing in disguise. Being woken up by society early is better than being stupid and becoming like Xia Bao.
In the end, Xia Li couldn't help but sigh, "I must teach Junjun well. I can't rely on Wang Tao in this life. In the end, I have to rely on our Junjun."
Xia Mian couldn't help but said, "How old is Junjun? Can't you rely on yourself in the future?"
Xia Li smiled and said, "I'm not as capable as you, and when Junjun gets older, I want to have two more so that the child can have company."
Hongjuan said, "Now that family planning is in place, can you have more children?"
Xia Li said disapprovingly, "Just pay the fine. Anyway, if the money is not spent on the children, I don't know which vixen will be spent on it. Why should I save it for him?"
When the topic reaches this point, the atmosphere becomes a bit awkward.
Mao Huizhu happened to bring a plate of lychees and placed it between them, "Sister-in-law, sister, here you go."
Several sisters-in-law wiped their hands or tasted it themselves, or peeled it and fed it to their children.
Xia Mian was picking leeks in her hands but did not move. Ning Shaobai passed by her and stuffed a peeled one into her mouth. Before leaving, he patted her head out of habit.
Xia Li's eyes were filled with envy, "Xia Mian's partner is so kind to you."
Hongjuan smiled and said, "What's wrong with this? My second aunt said that I'm afraid I won't find a better man than Dr. Ning in this world."
"I just need to hold Mianmian in my hands."
Xia Mian smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated. Why didn't you see me holding him in my heart?"
Several people laughed, and Xia Li sighed, "So, the doctor is very good. He is educated, well-educated, and treats people well. He is much better than finding a rich man."
"Rich men don't have many good things."
Xia Mian was noncommittal.
Xia Li continued, "When I first heard that you were going to marry some young master, I was really uncomfortable. I heard that those wealthy families have a lot of rules. If Wang Tao hadn't insisted on asking me to come, I wouldn't have wanted to come. "
Xia Mian smiled and said, "Wang Tao will be disappointed now."
"Let him be disappointed," Xia Li said nonchalantly. "I know that when he wanted to curry favor with you, he felt extremely uncomfortable. He really didn't want to come."
"The things I did ignorantly before were enough to make people look down on me, but now I'm looking for you and want to take advantage of you. You don't know how embarrassed I feel."
When Xia Li said this, she laughed and said, "It's okay now, there's nothing to fawn over, we can just walk around as relatives."
Xia Mian didn't expect that this misunderstanding would have an unexpectedly good result.
Xia Li looked at Wang Tao and said, "Don't look at him saying he is disappointed, in fact he is also happy."
"You are our most respectable relatives in Yan City. You are a family of college students and intellectuals."
"He thinks he is rich and great, but in his heart he still likes educated people. Otherwise, he would not have to hire a college student, but he is willing to spend money..."
Xia Mian let out a long sigh. It was obvious that Xia Li had been severely beaten not only by society but also by her marriage.
When she talked about these things about Wang Tao, she didn't even have any strong emotional ups and downs. Most of her anger was just that he supported others outside and took away her money.
Obviously she was disheartened about marriage and only regarded Wang Tao as a partner to live with.
During dinner in the evening, Mao Huimei and Fang Yongpeng also came back. Wang Tao came forward and exchanged warm greetings, praising Mao Huimei to the highest degree.
It can be seen that this guy has become a good talker after being tempered by society. He obviously believes in the principle of having many friends and many paths, and making friends with everyone he can, without offending anyone at all.
Although sophisticated, it is not a bad thing for the Mao family.
Although Xia Wenyue said there was no need to help, Wang Tao still went to the hotel to help the next day, and was very dedicated. Xia Wenyue also knew the changes in Xia Li, and the resentment in her heart disappeared.
After all, blood is thicker than water, and she also hopes that the descendants of the Xia family will be well.
As for the reason why they came to the door. After Wang Tao and the others left that day, the family sat together and analyzed it, and felt that they were probably people who hated Xia Mian and Ning Shao's good intentions.
The other party's purpose is obviously to attract the best relatives from his hometown. Entanglement or causing trouble for Ning Shaobai will make Ning Shaobai tired of Xia Mian.
It's a pity that the other party overestimated the knowledge of the people at the bottom, especially Uncle Xia's family. They were very superficial. They only judged a person's wealth by the size of his ostentation, and directly concluded that Ning Shaobai was an ordinary doctor.
But now that the people behind the scenes have found Uncle Xia, have they also found out what happened to the Mao family and the Hao family
Even if they didn't notify the Mao family and the Hao family, Xia Bao would still be in trouble.
It was not that he was afraid that the Mao family and the Hao family would come to his door, but that it would affect Mao Zhishan's career.
As a star, once there is a stain, not only himself, but Xia Wenyue and Mao Huimei's factory may also cause a series of chain reactions.
Moreover, Mao Zhishan, who has been acting for four years, is no longer as indifferent to this job as he was at the beginning.
Unexpectedly, Xia Wenyue said with a relaxed face, "Don't worry, I have already discussed this matter with your father and already have a countermeasure."
Mao Huilan said, "What countermeasures?"
Xia Wenyue smiled and said, "The strategy of striking first and taking advantage of others will completely wipe them out this time."
"Okay, you don't have to worry about this, it's already been done."
"If they dare to come to your door, they will be the ones who are finished."
"Xia Mian, on the other hand," Xia Wenyue said, "Think about who you have offended in your circle, and ask Dr. Ning if he can find out."
"Otherwise, if we solve it this time, it will still be troublesome if I try to stumble you quietly in the future."
