After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 243 - 2043 Mother Xia is happy

Grandma Xia turned her head to the side, her eyes gleaming with smugness as she looked at Xia Chuyi.

Huo Shiqian furrowed his brows, anger spreading across his face, and without a word, he looked worriedly at Xia Chuyi.

Xia Chengzong, who was beside them, also looked at her with concern.

Yet Xia Chuyi herself showed no trace of emotion on her face, seemingly indifferent to it all.

"No, I won’t leave the Xia Family, not even in death!" Mother Xia cried out miserably, pointing at Xia Chuyi from a distance, shouting, "You leave, just you leave, I don’t need your help, I won’t leave the Xia Family!"

The expression on Grandma Xia’s face became even more self-satisfied.

Xia Chuyi raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression utterly calm.

You resort to such petty tricks at the last moment? Are they of any use?

She couldn’t bother with Grandma Xia and directly addressed Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia, "I hope to settle the household registration transfer, the adoption within the family line, all of it, today."

"Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that there won’t be trouble on Xia Chengzu’s side."

Her words carried a clear threat.

"You!" Grandma Xia was furious, but she was helpless.

"Adoption? Adopt what?" Uncle Xia, on the side, heard the word ’adoption’ and felt puzzled. He turned to Aunt Xia and asked.

Aunt Xia looked up at everyone, especially Xia Chengzong.

But her own son wouldn’t even give her a glance, and she felt saddened, lowering her head.

Why couldn’t Chengzong understand her? frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Aunt Xia’s reaction had already made things very clear.

Suddenly, Mother Xia spoke up, asking uncertainly, "Adoption? Chuyi, what does this mean?"

Her tone was very anxious, her eyes lit up with hope, and her crying stopped.

Aunt Xia glared at Mother Xia with daggers in her eyes: This widow who had long coveted her own son had finally succeeded!

She directed all her resentment toward Mother Xia.

Unaware, Mother Xia just looked at Xia Chuyi, waiting for her answer.

Xia Chuyi smirked mockingly.

Mother Xia’s reaction had been completely within her expectations.

"You heard it right. Adoption. Grandma has already agreed to have the second brother adopted into the second branch of the family," Xia Chuyi didn’t beat around the bush and spoke directly, "I’ve agreed to it as well."

"But, if the second brother is adopted in, our second branch will have to completely move out of the Xia Family."

Hearing that the adoption was true, Mother Xia was initially overjoyed, but when she heard that they had to move out of the Xia Family, she hesitated.

Then Xia Chuyi added, "Moreover, the graveyard plot next to Dad’s, Grandma has also agreed and applied to the production team ahead of time. It will be left for you."

Upon hearing this, Mother Xia was stunned, urgently seeking confirmation, "Mom, big sister-in-law, is this true?"

At this point, Grandma Xia could not backtrack and could only huff in discontent, grudgingly confirming.

Aunt Xia clenched her teeth, glaring hatefully at her, then turned her face away, implying her tacit agreement.

Tears of joy immediately welled up in Mother Xia’s eyes. She wiped her eyes and looked at Xia Chenzong with a gaze full of care.

"Chengzong, is it true? From now on, you are the son of our second branch, you are my son?" she asked tenderly.

Mother Xia was incredibly happy at the moment, while Aunt Xia felt a bitter taste listening to this, her teeth practically crushed from anger, growing even more resentful of Mother Xia.

Mother Xia’s expression made Xia Chengzong quite uncomfortable—his emotions were mixed as he glanced at Xia Chuyi and eventually nodded, responding to Mother Xia, "Mm."

Hearing this, Mother Xia’s happiness doubled, repeatedly exclaiming, "Good, good!"

Now, regarding whether they moved out of the Xia Family’s house or not, she couldn’t care less.
