Xia Xia's feelings for Zhou Man come more from her bloodline and from Xia Yan buried in the cemetery next to her, so she sticks to her own understanding.

Old Zhou Tou still wants to reason with him, but Qian has already said: "So that Mr. Xia will know that we have no intention of letting Man Bao change his surname."

Xia Xia, who still wanted to speak, was choked up and his expression turned ugly.

Qian's face was still gentle, but she said: "Marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words. She was raised by us and she still calls us father and mother. So the marriage we have decided for her will only last as long as we

If she doesn't change, she will have to get married."

Xia Xia, who was still thinking about going to Zhou Man to talk to him, felt his heart sink.

Qian said: "I have told you about this matter. I will go to the county government office to meet other relatives of the Xia family later. We will talk about it again."

She said without much expression on her face: "I am a woman and I don't know much. If what I say is wrong, please forgive me, Mr. Xia."

She said: "As the saying goes, married children throw away water. Originally, when Zhou Yin married into your Xia family, he was no longer a member of our Zhou family. He is a good boy, but his eldest brother and I single-handedly brought him up.

, isn’t it easy?”

Hearing this, Xia Xia was speechless for a moment.

Lao Zhou stopped talking for a moment and stood aside with his neck curled up.

Qian said: "I know what he did was a good thing, but for our family, it was a devastating disaster. For more than ten years, I have raised Manbao and not only worried about her food and drink.

, I’m still gambling with the lives of the whole family, I thought, no matter how great the Xia family’s kindness is, it can’t be as important as my Zhou family’s kindness, right?”

Xia Xia felt guilty immediately.

Originally, Zhou Yin was a man. He took Xia Xin away and there was no news for more than ten years. The Xia family was very reasonable. But with Qian's comparison, Zhou Yin became the person to marry into their Xia family. In fact, he was also the one who married into their Xia family.

, they immediately felt guilty.

Xia Xia had to nod, "Yes, the in-laws' kindness to the eldest lady is indeed not weaker than the Xia family's kindness..."

Mr. Qian nodded and said, "Master Xia, just admit it."

She said: "In this case, let Man Bao repay our Zhou family's kindness by giving her the surname Zhou for the rest of her life, and let her give birth to a child named Xia Bao Xia for her kindness."

Qian took out her handkerchief and pressed her eyes. Her strong back softened slightly and she said weakly: "I'm not afraid of Mr. Xia's jokes. I raised Manbao with my own hands. I have feelings for her. I will take care of the next generation."

I'm afraid I won't be able to see much anymore, so I just let them go and let them have whatever surname they want, but she insists on taking my surname and even calls me mother all the time. She won't change it until I die and can no longer hear her.

go."

Xia Xia didn't think there was anything wrong. As a woman, it's normal to be emotional.

He couldn't help but look at Lao Zhoutou, and saw that Lao Zhoutou was looking down at his toes, with his neck still half-shrunk. Xia Xia couldn't help but remain silent.

Mr. Zhuang, who was sitting silently on the side, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mr. Qian came with him, otherwise...

Qian used his "unreasonable troubles" to calm down Xia Xia, and the rest of the matter went smoothly.

After everyone paid their respects, they went down the mountain to the county government office together.

Lao Zhoutou was not happy to sit in the same car with Xia Xia, so he went to sit with Qian.

Sitting in the car, Lao Zhou was about to speak but stopped.

Qian glanced at him and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't peek at me all the time."

Lao Zhoutou asked in a low voice, "Do we really not care about Man Bao's children?"

Qian:……

She couldn't help but stretched out her hand to twist his arm and whispered: "What do you believe in what I say? Xia is not easy to get along with. Even Xia Xia, who is a pretty good person, wants to take care of Man Bao."

, If I don’t say so, do you really want to give your daughter to someone else?”

Qian said with a stern face: "Man Bao and Tong Gonghe have only met twice. Apart from the blood relationship, how much affection do they have for each other? Blood relationship, Xia Xia and Man Bao's grandparents are also far apart, so if they kiss,

No matter how great the kindness is, is it important to have children and grandchildren of one's own?"

But Lao Zhoutou said: "That's all for the first sentence, but for the latter sentence, I think Xia Xia is still very grateful for his kindness. He told me just now in the car that he has been keeping the shop very carefully for Man Bao.

, he has been collecting the rent for more than ten years, and will give the shop and the rent to Manbao later."

Qian said: "This is not a matter of life and death. People will naturally remember their kindness. But one day, if Man Bao is put on the edge of a cliff with his descendants and asked to choose, will he still choose Man Bao?"

Old Zhoutou: "...

He couldn't help but muttered: "Then you may not choose Manbao, right?"

Qian:……

Lao Zhoutou immediately said: "What you said is right. I wasn't thinking about it. You said you didn't care about Man Bao's child. I was afraid that after hearing this, Xia would have other ideas. If Man Bao gave birth to a child, they would take it over.

What should I do if I inherit the Xia family?"

Mrs. Qian glanced at him and said, "You are stupid. The child's parents are here, and there is also a grandmother and great-grandmother above him. No matter what happens, it is not the Xia family's turn to raise him. How can I really ignore it if I say I don't care?"

She lowered her voice and said: "Manbao said that Xia Xia won't live long. With our bodies so strong, we will definitely live longer than those old people in the Xia family. What are we afraid of?"

Who knows whether she said this at that time?

Even if someone knew that she regretted it, who could really do anything to her?

Old Zhou opened his mouth wide.

Manbao and the other three people who were two carriages away from them also opened their mouths in surprise. They raised the curtains and leaned in the door in disbelief and asked Daji, the driver, "Did my mother really say that?"

Daji nodded and flicked his whip in the air to let the horse follow the car in front.

Man Bao thought about it for a while and said with admiration: "My mother is really amazing."

Bai Shan nodded in agreement. With such a mother-in-law, he felt that there was no need to be afraid of Mrs. Xia. A single act of kindness could make Mrs. Xia unable to straighten her back.

Man Bao can hide behind Qian. Even if there are discussions, Qian won't care. She has never lived in Shangzhou, so what is she afraid of?

Moreover, if one person is a good person, someone has to be a bad person, otherwise, others will think that Man Bao and the Zhou family are easy to bully.

Bai Shan also ignited his fighting spirit and whispered to Man Bao, "You won't go against Xia Xia. I have sent people to find out who the sacrifice sweeper is. It's really Xia Xia. You have to be grateful, but to Xia Xia

But you don’t have to be afraid of other people in the family. When it’s time to use official power, use official power. As for Xia Xia, let your uncle and aunt go. They are your elders and raised you. No matter what, they can do it for you.

The decision is back."

Man Bao nodded repeatedly, feeling more at ease.

Bai Shan continued: "Don't be afraid when we go in soon. There is also Mr. Xia. If Mrs. Xia threatens you with kindness, you will be sad. Leave the rest to us."

Man Bao asked curiously, "You are too young, what use can you use?"

Bai Shan hummed and said, "I'm of great use. We are engaged. I am your future husband, you know. I am still a son of an aristocratic family. The Xia family is just a small squire in Shangzhou. They can follow me."

Bi, do you dare to fight me?"
