Chapter 16: Xia Wan Slandered
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Song Yan saw that even the usually gentle Yan Han had lost his temper and knew that Xia Wan’s illness must be really serious. She knew Yan Han well. She was willing to suffer but not the child. If Yan Han was really forced into a corner and spread rumors, it would surely affect Xia Ru’s reputation.
Song Yan didn’t care about Xia Wan, but Xia Ru was her precious baby. She still had a bright future ahead of her.
“Ah, sister-in-law, look at my mouth. It’s all my fault. How could I doubt you? You’ve always been the most honest one. It’s all Sister-in-law’s fault. Since Wanwan is in poor health, then you should quickly give her some nourishing food.”
With that, Song Yan turned around and left to look for her husband, Xia Jiang.
“Xia Jiang,” Song Yan asked, “Why did I hear from Yan Han that Xia Hai’s salary this month will be for himself? Didn’t he give all of it to mother before?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXia Jiang briefly explained the matter and concluded, “I think Wanwan’s really angry. She actually said that she wanted to move out of the family. Every time we give up our salary, third brother indeed pays the most. Also, between our family and second brother’s family, Mother is actually more partial towards second brother’s family.
“That’s why I think it’ll be better if third brother doesn’t give us the money. Otherwise, Mother will give all the money to second brother’s family because of Xia Yu’s injury.”
When Song Yan heard this, her anger toward Yan Han completely disappeared.
“Xia Yu is such a glutton. It’s a pity we don’t have a son. It’s all my fault for not being able to live up to expectations,” Song Yan said regretfully.
Xia Jiang consoled her. “It’s fine if you don’t have a son. Xia Ru is a good girl too. She’ll definitely marry a good man in the future.”
“Yes, that’s true.”
At the mention of her daughter, Song Yan’s face filled with pride.
Xia Jiang didn’t mind, but Chen Lian was in the wrong. Thus, no one mentioned Xia Hai’s salary again.
Yan Han brought two boiled eggs over to Xia Wan. Knowing that her body was weak, and she had to recover her strength first before she could do more things, Xia Wan finished up the eggs.
As she ate, she wondered how great it would be if only there were pickled cucumbers and carrots.
The thoughts were so vivid she could actually imagine those condiments next to her. However, Xia Wan could only rely on her own imagination and ate the two eggs pretending they were delicious.
Yan Han had been looking at her gently the whole time, and after Xia Wan finished the egg, she said, “Sleep early. There’s still more tomorrow. You should rest well first and don’t worry about anything else.”
“Okay, Thank you, Mom,” Xia Wan replied obediently, which made Yan Han very happy.
Her Xia Wan was so obedient. Those people who said that her Xia Wan was bad must have very poor eyesight.
After Yan Han left, Xia Wan looked at Xia Chen and Xia Feng’s room, which was very close to hers, raising her voice slightly. “Brother, let’s go to the county tomorrow.”
Before Xia Chen could say anything, Xia Feng impatiently said, “Why do you have to be so nosy? You’re still sick, but you’re already thinking of going out. Why? Are you thinking of spending dad’s money?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXia Chen wasn’t happy to hear this. He stared at Xia Feng, who was lying next to him and growled sternly, “Xia Wan is your sister. How can you talk to your sister like that?!”
“Who’s my sister? She’s not my sister. I wouldn’t dare to have such a sister.” Xia Feng turned his face away, preventing Xia Chen from getting a good look at his face.
“Xia Feng! What’s the matter with you?” Xia Chen’s expression did not look good.
Xia Wan knew what Xia Feng was feeling uncomfortable about, but it was late now, and it was not nice to say it in person. It was better to wait until tomorrow. Thus, she immediately advised, “Brother, don’t be mad at Xia Feng. It’s all my fault. Alright, let’s go to bed. We still have a lot of work to do tomorrow.”
Xia Chen originally wanted to ask Xia Wan what she was doing in the county, but now that she said this, he didn’t ask anymore and went straight to bed.
The three children fell asleep very quickly, but Yan Han kept sighing, her face stained with worry.
Seeing her like this, Xia Hai naturally couldn’t fall asleep. “What’s wrong?”
“When I went to buy eggs for Xia Wan today, I heard people talking about our Wanwan. They said that she stole someone else’s boyfriend and likes to hook up with men, especially those who already have girlfriends.
“Our Wanwan was pushed into the pond and almost died, but no one cared. They’re even talking about her behind her back, but they don’t know the truth. That boy isn’t Julie’s boyfriend, so why did they say that our Wanwan hooked up with someone else’s boyfriend?”
“If they continue to spread such things, our Wanwan’s reputation will be ruined completely. How would she get married in the future? ”
“What?!” Xia Hai was shocked to hear this. “How can they talk about a child behind her back like that? How can they be so black-hearted!”
