Chapter 138: The Willows and Flowers Are Bright
Xia Xiang's gaze fell on Aunt Du's hand that had not fallen for a long time, and the hot pain of the palm print on her cheek had not faded, she looked at her unrepentant brother on the ground again, and frowned slightly.
"Sixth brother, my aunt is already exhausted here, and what I gave you before was raised by my aunt racking her brains......"
Before the words were finished, Xia Heng had gloomy eyes in displeasure, "Ninth sister, the sixth brother doesn't like to listen to this, what is the end of the mountain, I see that you are obviously afraid that your aunt will take out the dowry prepared for you, and I will come back and remember to bring you jewelry, I didn't expect you to be so selfish, do you want to be happy to watch the sixth brother being found by the creditor to unload eight pieces?"
He looked up and down at the girl in front of him with a look of disgust, "Ninth sister's complexion is getting better and better, it seems that my aunt has paid out of her own pocket to buy you high-quality medicine patches, right? Speaking of which, you are the burden that drags your aunt back!"
Xia Xiang couldn't help but darken her expression, pursed her lips aggrievedly, Xia Heng's words pierced deeply into her heart, although her aunt always sneered at her on weekdays, she never gave up treating her, and now the word "cumbersome" was put on the table by Xia Heng, and the fear that Xia Xiang had been trying to suppress in her heart was dug out again.
Yes, she was afraid, afraid that her aunt would run out of all her patience at some point, and she would not want her as a daughter, and then she would really have nothing.
Aunt Du only felt a mouthful of stuffy blood blocked in her heart, and she was so angry that she gasped violently, "I tried every means to send you to Yingtian Academy, and I only taught you to eat, drink and have fun? What kind of face, are you stupid and blame others for not giving you face? Now you dare to be angry with your sister!"
Xia Xiang raised her eyes and looked at Aunt Du in astonishment, as if she didn't expect that in front of the sixth brother, she would be able to protect herself.
After all, my aunt has always given her the feeling that once something happens in the future and she has to choose one or the other, her aunt will definitely abandon her pawn without hesitation, and the sixth brother is the only reliance in her heart.
But he didn't want Xia Heng to stand up suddenly, and argued angrily, "I didn't want to go to any academy in the first place, wasn't it all forced by my aunt? If it weren't for the sake of fighting for my aunt, I would have fooled around with them? Now that the child is in prison, my aunt only knows how to blame, since that's the case, let me be beaten to death by the people in the gambling house!"
Where would Aunt Du have thought that he would actually play a scoundrel, looking at that glamorous dress, I only feel that the more I look at it, the more ironic it becomes.
"Okay, that's great......"
Xia Heng only felt that his mouth was dry, he walked to the side and sat down, raised his head and drank a large pot of tea, and waved his hand angrily, "That's it, it's a big deal to go to Qianzhuang to borrow a few more times in the name of the third sister, anyway, my mother will help her pay it back, and I will find a friend to make up for the rest, so I won't bother my aunt!"
The mother in his mouth is naturally the eldest lady Wen, such a trick has not been used before, Xia Qianwei at that time was an impatient child, and very confused, when Wen took the IOU to the past, she always answered nonchalantly I don't remember, and I will lose my temper if I ask her more.
The money that can be borrowed always has to be repaid, and the Wen family held Xia Qianwei so high, anyway, the wool came out of the general's mansion, and she helped her repay it with a small amount, and she also won the reputation of a loving mother.
Aunt Du's face became more and more gloomy, and her voice trembled uncontrollably, "You also went to Qianzhuang to borrow silver? I'm afraid you haven't even read the letter I wrote, right? The eldest lady has already gone to Lei Ruo Temple, and now Xia Qianwei is very shrewd, can she let you do such nonsense?"
"What?!Mother, she's not in the house...... Auntie, aren't you joking with the child? I just know how shrewd the third sister can be......
I only heard Aunt Du sneer, as if she wanted to screw Xia Heng's head off, "Aren't you capable? Ask your fox friends and dogs, what great things have the third sister you said about recently! Even Xia Lanchu was made out of the house by her, and you still dare to hit her with the idea?"
Xia Heng still didn't want to believe it, if what his aunt said was true, when someone from Qianzhuang came to the door, wouldn't the good things he did go to his grandmother and father?
"Auntie help me! I, how did I know that so many things have happened in the house, my grandmother and father have always disliked me, and you are the only son like me, do you want to watch the child being swept away?"
Xia Heng, who was still ashamed of his words, finally knew that he was scared this time, and he pleaded and pulled Aunt Du's sleeve, but she threw him away.
"Aunt could have helped you, but now she can't protect herself! Get out, get out!"
If she can get the power to be in charge, she can think of a way to maneuver, but when she thinks of Xia Hengfang, she keeps saying that she forced him, and now she really has the idea of letting this unmotivated son fend for himself, so she simply let him be beaten to death to save her eyes!
Xia Heng suddenly became discouraged, and looked angrily at Xia Xiang, who was standing beside Aunt Du obediently at the moment, "Are you always saying in your aunt's ear that the sixth brother is not, okay, I can do it no matter what, I'll figure it out myself!"
He flicked his sleeves and rushed out of the house, Xia Xiang hurriedly chased after him, "Sixth brother!"
"You go, what are you going to do with me?"
There seemed to be a subordinate passing not far away, so Xia Heng immediately straightened his clothes with a flash of eyes, and coldly watched Xia Xiang, who was panting after trotting a few steps, come to him.
"What my aunt said is angry, don't take it to heart, Xiang'er knows that the sixth brother is also working so hard for us, where do you dare to say that the sixth brother is not. ”
Looking at the girl in front of him with a pitiful expression as if she was about to cry, Xia Heng's face eased slightly, and he glanced at her with a shelf, "Really?"
"The sixth brother is the only support of Xiang'er and her aunt, we are still waiting for the title of the sixth brother's gold list, how can Xiang'er deceive?"
Also, my aunt's favorite is him, and she has always responded to her needs, where can she really abandon him?
Xia Heng frowned with a hesitant look, and asked softly, "Auntie really doesn't have any private money?"
Xia Xiang nodded, he became more and more anxious, how can this be good, even if he really takes his sister's dowry, it is not much!
Seeing the appearance of the man in front of her, she seemed to mention it casually, "Xiang'er heard that someone gave her grandmother a few valuable ginseng ......"
Ginseng?
Xia Heng's eyes immediately crossed a gleam, why didn't he think of it?! His father had prepared a lot of expensive medicinal materials for his grandmother to condition his body, and he didn't count the ones sent by others, so it was estimated that he wouldn't be able to eat them all in a few years......
"Go back, tell my aunt that I have already asked my grandmother to be there, and I will have a small gathering with a few classmates tonight, so I won't come back for dinner!"
Xia Heng, who had been crying all the time, came to life all of a sudden, leaving such a sentence and turning around and leaving in style, Xia Xiang looked at his fiery back, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
