Before Grandma Xia could respond to Grandpa Xia, the second car arrived with Xia Chengzong and the police officers stepping out.
As soon as Grandpa Xia saw Xia Chengzong, his brows furrowed deeply, and he asked Grandma Xia with an unhappy expression, "Did this boy get himself in trouble?"
"Hmph!" Grandma Xia now wished she could flay Xia Chengzong’s skin and eat his flesh and said annoyed, "Of course it’s this little bastard’s doing!"
Intentionally creating confusion.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Xia couldn’t hold back any longer, cursing, "What the hell did you do this time, you damned brat? I’ll beat you to death!"
He rolled up his sleeves, ready to move forward and deliver a beating.
"What are you doing, comrade? Don’t you know it’s illegal to hit someone?" Seeing Uncle Xia’s aggressive stance, the police officer quickly scolded, "You dare to strike someone in front of us, the police? Do you think we don’t exist or what?"
The people of the Xia Family, each one worse than the next, utterly shameless.
Uncle Xia was just bluffing, and after being yelled at by the police, he immediately backed down, apologizing with a forced smile, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Officer, I didn’t mean it!"
"This stinking kid is my son. If he has broken the law, I was just trying to give him a lesson first, nothing else, nothing else..."
"Who told you Xia Chengzong broke the law?" The police officer said coldly.
Uncle Xia was taken aback and turned to look at Grandma Xia.
Even Grandpa Xia was somewhat puzzled looking at Grandma Xia.
Grinding her teeth, Grandma Xia rolled her eyes furiously.
"Yes, this little beast hasn’t broken the law, but he’s done something even more despicable!" Grandma Xia said only this much and would say no more.
What a joke. With so many people around, if she detailed the situation, wouldn’t everyone know about the issues with her precious grandson, Xia Chengzu?
Neither Grandpa Xia nor Uncle Xia got an explanation for their confusion, and from behind, Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian also got out of the car.
The Xia Family recognized Xia Chuyi, but let’s not go into that.
Upon getting out of the car, Huo Shiqian stood before everyone, expression stern, looking down icily, surveying the Xia Family members.
"Let’s get this matter resolved quickly, no need for delays," he instructed the officers indifferently.
His words were light, but the underlying authority was unmistakably intimidating.
Both Grandpa Xia and Uncle Xia were left stunned.
"Yes, Commander Huo!" the police officer responded.
Now, both Grandpa Xia and Uncle Xia were even more afraid.
Clearly, this man was a military officer!
But why would a military officer come to their house?
Both were greatly alarmed.
Uncle Xia, being somewhat of a coward, immediately hid behind Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia, not daring to look.
Grandpa Xia was also nervous, but tried to remain calm, and in a lowered voice, asked Grandma Xia, "What’s going on, Grandma?"
"It’s nothing!" Grandma Xia was still not pleasant, yet she also didn’t dare to be bold, scanning her surroundings and giving Grandpa Xia a meaningful glance.
Meaning, there were too many ears around, and it was inconvenient to explain at the moment.
Then, Grandma Xia said to Grandpa Xia, "Grandpa, go find the production team leader and the village head, we’ll need their help with a family issue."
Seeing that Grandpa Xia was puzzled and motionless, she felt compelled to give a rough explanation, "The second son’s family wants to change their household registration!"
"What? Change the household registration?" exclaimed Grandpa Xia.
Mention of this made Grandma Xia furious, and she couldn’t help but raise her voice, calling out in the direction of the second son’s quarter, "Second son’s family, come out quickly, your daughter wants to take you away from the Xia Family, to live a life of luxury!"
Soon, there was a flurry of noise from the second son’s place, and Mother Xia appeared before everyone, pale and overwhelmed with panic, tears streaming down her face.
"What do you mean, taken away from the Xia Family? I won’t go, I won’t go!" Mother Xia was utterly distraught, her face awash with tears that she couldn’t stop.
