After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 62 - Waiting for Uncle to Return

Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Waiting for Uncle to Return

Returning to her room, Mother Xia hurried forward.

“Chuyi, the He Family just came over, what did they say to your grandmother and the others?” Clearly, Mother Xia had noticed the situation in the main house, but her timid nature prevented her from getting involved.

“Chuyi, about that matter, did the He Family, or your grandmother, give you an explanation?” Mother Xia’s words made Xia Chuyi stop in her tracks.

“Mom, if there are things you don’t wish to handle, or can’t handle, then don’t ask about them,” Xia Chuyi said indifferently.

Mother Xia’s inquiries and care were always just verbal.

In the end, it was always her, Xia Chuyi, who ended up battered and fighting over issues.

...

And Mother Xia could only ever cry.

“Mom knows she is weak…” Mother Xia inevitably started crying again.

Facing Mother Xia’s tears once more, Xia Chuyi was now able to remain composed.

For Mother Xia, crying was probably as easy as breathing; just like breathing didn’t kill anyone, neither did crying.

“Mom, the marriage arrangement was canceled by He Qing and me on our own initiative. I don’t care about it one bit,” Xia Chuyi spoke frankly with Mother Xia, “From now on, this matter has nothing to do with me. You don’t need to ask anymore.”

Mother Xia paused and wiped her tears, “Then, what about Er Lan…”

“Her affairs are also none of my business. I belong to the second branch of the family. Whether it’s the main branch or the third branch, their affairs have nothing to do with me,” Xia Chuyi cut off Mother Xia’s path clearly and decisively.

Mother Xia hung her head and shrugged her shoulders, no longer asking.

Xia Chuyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Staying in the Xia Family Courtyard was truly exhausting, every single day.

Fortunately, with Xia Lan’s matter settled, she could now go to town to do business with a peace of mind.

But how could she keep it a secret from the Xia Family members?

After some thought, Xia Chuyi went to Uncle Xia’s house.

“What, you want to do business and you want your uncle to tell everyone that the business is his?” Aunt Xia was startled upon hearing her intentions.

“Yes, Aunt, you know how the people in my family are. If they found out that the business was mine, wouldn’t they turn the world upside down?” Xia Chuyi explained to Aunt Xia.

Aunt Xia frowned, clearly not quite understanding.

Seeing Xia Chuyi was firm, she finally said, “Sigh, Chuyi, it’s not that your aunt thinks doing business is bad.”

Aunt Xia sighed.

“Chuyi, as you know, your uncle has made a fair amount from his business. He’s invested in houses, bought cars, and many are envious of him,” Aunt Xia said earnestly, “I’m not afraid to be straight with you, your uncle has earned even more than what people see.”

“But…” Aunt Xia continued with emphasis, “the hardships involved are endless.”

“How about this, you went to high school, and even though you didn’t graduate, becoming a substitute teacher in the village and teaching primary school would be completely fine,” Aunt Xia patted her hand, “Teach for a few years, and then I’ll have your uncle find a way to get you into the civil service.”

Xia Chuyi then held Aunt Xia’s hand in return, “Aunt, I appreciate everything you’ve done for me, but Aunt, I still want to try it on my own.”

Seeing her determination, Aunt Xia had no choice but to say, “Fine, fine, I’ll leave this matter be. You can discuss it with your uncle when he returns.”

“When is Uncle coming back?” asked Xia Chuyi.

In her past life at this time, Xia Chuyi was still in the Provincial City. By the time she returned, Uncle Xia had just gone out again.

So she knew that in these next few days, Uncle Xia should be returning home for a bit because of some business, then he would leave again before the car accident happened half a month later.

“The message was he would return in the next few days, but I don’t know the specifics,” replied Aunt Xia.

“Okay,” Xia Chuyi nodded.

Uncle Xia, finally he was coming back.
