Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Up to No Good
Xia Chengzong thought carefully, then nodded firmly, saying, “There shouldn’t be any, people in ‘that’ world value these things the most.”
“That’s good.” Chuyi also nodded after hearing this.
After all, her older brother was a “professional hooligan”; he knew more about these tricks than she did.
“No matter what, let’s just be careful about what needs attention,” Chuyi concluded in the end.
The next day, when she saw Zhang Xiaoling again, those with “Youwei” were able to face her calmly, doing what they needed to do without giving her any extra glances.
As for Zhang Xiaoling, for some unknown reason, besides still putting on an arrogant demeanor as she passed by, she had stopped provoking any further trouble.
Seeing this, Chuyi breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when one is down on their luck, even drinking water can cause problems between the teeth.
Zhang Xiaoling had temporarily ceased her mischief, but the Xia Family had come again.
The Xia Family arrived at the store when “Youwei’s” business was almost ending.
“Chuyi, your grandma has come to see you!” Grandma Xia had come with Aunt Xia, and as soon as the two appeared, Aunt Xia cheerfully called out to Chuyi.
“You old… why are you here?” Zhao Xiaogui, who was busy, almost cursed upon seeing the Xia Family, but he held it back in consideration of the customers present.
Compared to Zhao Xiaogui, Chuyi was much calmer, “Grandma, why have you come?”
“Look at this child, how can you speak like that? Is it wrong for your grandma to come and see you?” Aunt Xia scolded.
With a sanctimonious smile of kindness, Grandma Xia said, “Yes, Chuyi, Grandma just came to see you.”
Chuyi snorted at that thought.
They came to see her store and her money, no doubt.
It was expected that the Xia Family would come looking for her; she just didn’t expect them to come so soon.
It seems that the Xia Family was really well-informed.
Sharing her thoughts, Zhao Xiaogui also suspected someone had tipped them off, casting a suspicious glance at Xia Chengzong.
“It wasn’t me!” Xia Chengzong responded with a dark face.
Chuyi shook her head, whispering to her cousin, “It’s not him.”
Xia Chengzong wasn’t that type of person.
And as for who it might be? She guessed it was likely Xia Chengzu, who had been loitering around the county for a while.
After all, only he could prompt Grandma Xia to step in.
“Grandma, Mom, why have you come?” Xia Chengzong stepped forward, blocking the two, and asked.
“Second kid is also here?” Grandma Xia seemed to have just noticed him standing boldly in front of her.
Aunt Xia also expressed surprise, “Chengzong, why are you here?”
This is what real mothers and grandmothers are like.
Only seeing money, they fail to notice their own grandson and son standing right in front of them.
Without waiting for Xia Chengzong to answer, Aunt Xia’s eyes shifted, and she added, “Ah, I said it. Chuyi has opened a store in the city; how could the Old Xia Family not know?”
“Only, Chengzong, why didn’t you come home to tell us?” Aunt Xia questioned her own son.
Zhao Xiaogui didn’t .
“What business is it of yours whether my sister opens a store or not!” Zhao Xiaogui retorted loudly.
“Xiao Gui!” Chuyi chastised lightly, then calmly said to Grandma Xia, “Grandma, since you came to see me, you’ve seen me, now you may leave.”
She was directly ordering them out.
Grandma Xia and Aunt Xia’s expressions immediately turned ugly.
They hadn’t expected Chuyi to be so heartless!
After their faces stiffened, Aunt Xia tried to smooth things over, “Child, what are you talking about? Your grandma came to see you because she cares!”
Caring for her? A weasel praying for a chicken really.
