Chapter 2274: Xia Guang's Second Marriage
Xia Guang looked at Qiao Mei in shock and she quickly said, "My neighbor is a famous old Chinese doctor in the capital. I've studied under him for a while. It's obvious that those people from the Huang family don't have much time left. Otherwise, they wouldn't have rushed to ask me for medicinal wine."
"Enough! Don't try to blame other people! Go back to pack your things and get ready to leave!" Xia Jun said as he waved his hand.
"Father! Are you just going to watch our family get bullied by the Huang family?" Xia Guang said furiously.
"Have you thought about why they don't bully your two older brothers! It's not as if I didn't give you any chances in the past! All these years, it's obvious that I favored you the most! But what about you! You're so hopeless! You're not even as good as Qiao Mei and the other girls in the family! They're all big bosses in various regions now! Xia Wan is even running a business in Country M! You should take a good look at yourself!" Xia Jun roared.
"That's because they all receive help from Qiao Mei! If our family has the same kind of help from Qiao Mei, we can also make a lot of money!" Xia Guang said indignantly.
"Now you're eyeing Qiao Mei's things. Have you forgotten what your family did to Qiao Mei's family back then? Have you completely forgotten what your three sons and your ex-wife did to Qiao Mei? You should be satisfied that Qiao Mei did not divorce Xia Zhe because of this!" Xia Jun reprimanded.
What Xia Jun said was not impossible. There were many women who asked for a divorce because of harsh treatment from their in-laws. If Qiao Mei had really gone back to her maternal home with her children at that time, it was not only Xia Zhe who would not be able to accept it. Even the eldest and second sons' families would not be able to accept Qiao Mei leaving.
At the mention of the past, everyone gradually looked at Xia Guang's family angrily, especially Xia Mao and Xu Lan. The two of them had not expressed their opinions on all these previous matters. After all, Qiao Mei and Xia Wen had handled it well and Xia Guang was Xia Mao's younger brother, so they did not want to say anything.
However, it was different now! There was a limit to one's patience. If Xia Mao and Xu Lan were forced into a corner, they would do anything, regardless of the fact that he was their younger brother.
"I'd go if you want me to! But I want to get married!" Xia Guang said righteously.
Xia Jun was so angry that he picked up the teacup on the coffee table and smashed it on the floor. He pointed at Xia Guang and shouted, "You still want to get married! Don't ruin another family's daughter! Who would want to go and live in the highlands with you!"
"I don't care! I want to get married!" Xia Guang said in a fit of pique.
Seeing that Xia Jun was about to pick up his walking stick to hit Xia Guang, Xia Wen quickly held on to him and said, "Grandfather, please give it some thought."
"Father, we've all met that woman before. One look and we can tell that she's someone who knows how to lead a good life. There's nothing bad about Third Brother marrying her," Liu Fen said.
Xia Jun sat back down on the sofa and sighed, saying, "We still have to ask the woman if she's willing to get married. When do you want to get married?"
"The sooner the better, within the week. I have to leave the capital after a week," Xia Guang said.
"Alright. Get lost now," Xia Jun said irritably.
Xia Guang did not stay any longer and left immediately. The reason why he was in such a hurry to get married was because he was afraid that Tang Hui would go back on her word once she heard that he was going to be transferred. He had just won her heart and he did not want to lose her again.
Xia Xing stood on the spot and looked hesitant, as if he had something to say. Qiao Mei and Xia Wen looked towards him and Xia Xing mustered his courage and said, "Are we going to do nothing and just let the Huang family bully us?"
"Of course not," Qiao Mei said.
Xia Jun turned to look at Xia Wen and Xia Wen said knowingly, "I understand, Grandfather. I'll make the necessary arrangements."
Xia Jun did not have to worry about these small issues anymore. Xia Wen could already handle everything very well, so Xia Jun could not even be bothered to worry about them. Xia Xing felt a little jealous. He had long known that Xia Wen had the most say in this family. Although he was a grandson as well, he was dispensable to Xia Jun. Even if he died one of these days, he would not cause a ripple.
"Elder Cousin, I've been transferred to the railway to be a lowly train attendant. Can you help me get another job?" Xia Xing begged.
"Just stay put for the time being. I have something in mind," Xia Wen said seriously as he looked at Xia Xing. If he wanted to take down the Huang family, he still needed Xia Xing's help.
However, Xia Xing did not understand what Xia Wen meant. He thought that all of them just wanted to watch from the side and did not intend to help him at all. He picked up his coat and left angrily.
"He... doesn't seem to understand what Eldest Brother means," Qiao Mei said helplessly.
"Trash! A whole bunch of trash! The children are brought up so badly by the two of them! What a sin!" Xia Jun said angrily. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
"Grandfather, don't worry. These are all small matters and I'll handle them. There's no need to get angry and let it affect your health," Xia Wen comforted.

The room fell silent. Qiao Mei quietly raised her hand and asked, "So what do we do about Third Uncle's wedding?"
