The Divine Healer Gets a Divorce after Reincarnating!-Chapter 52 - Xia Hai's Part-Time Job
52 Xia Hai’s Part-Time Job
When Yan Han mentioned her father, Xia Wan was afraid that she’d worry, so she said, “I heard someone’s gone to look for Dad. Brother has gone to look for him and he should be back soon. Mom, you should go home and wait for him.
Yan Han had never doubted Xia Wan, so she immediately returned home to wait in peace.
About an hour later, Li Hai and the others returned. She was panting in anger, and her clothes were in a mess. It was obvious that the battle had been intense.
Li Hai became enraged when she saw Yan Han and Xia Wan at home. She directly asked, “What’s wrong with you guys? We’ve been bullied all the way to our doorstep, yet you guys are still resting at home? Aren’t you a part of this family?”
If it were any other time, Yan Han would have panicked when Li Hai questioned her. However, when she thought about what Xia Wan said, she put on a wronged expression, saying, “Mother, I’ve just returned. I really don’t know what happened.”
Li Hai’s face was cold. “We were fighting in front of our house. Are you blind?”
Yan Han stared at her with a pair of innocent eyes. “Mother, I always go home from the back door. As you know, the back door is closer to our land. Today, I was supposed to go to the fields with my two sisters-in-law, but they didn’t come. I was alone, so I stayed a little longer. I was afraid that something would happen to their land.”
When Xia Wan heard Yan Han’s reply, she began to reveal a small smile.
She knew it. Yan Han was so smart. It was said that she inherited her intelligence from her mother. How could her mother’s brain not be good? She was very smart to say that she was fooling Li Hai.
When Li Hai heard Yan Han’s words, she recalled that Song Yan and Chen Lian were indeed lazy and would sometimes leave the chores of both families to Yan Han. Thus, at that moment, she felt that he was in the wrong and didn’t continue to hold Yan Han accountable.
She turned to look at Xia Wan unhappily. “What have you been doing? It’s so late, and you’re running about instead of studying at home. Why are you so free?”
Xia Wan wasn’t afraid of her. She smiled and said, “Yeah, I’ve been out every day, but I’ve never seduced any wild men. On the other hand, Xia Ru’s been beaten up. The Xia family has completely lost their reputation.
Xia Wan then put on a mocking smile. “Grandma, have you forgotten how you scolded me when they accused me of seducing a wild man? Why aren’t you accusing Xia Ru for the same thing? Instead, we’re the ones taking the blame. Is this how you handle things? Grandma, aren’t you afraid the neighbors will say you’re biased?”
Although Li Hai’s favoritism was plain to see, and the neighbors knew it, Li Hai’s pride didn’t allow her to admit it. Hence, when Xia Wan questioned her, Li Hai naturally had some reservations.
She was furious but could not vent it out on Xia Wan. She thought of Xia Ru, who was the cause of today’s incident, and immediately wanted to find her.
Xia Wan immediately followed behind Li Hai.
Yan Han tugged at her arm and asked, “Where are you going?”
Xia Wan smiled. “Grandma must be going to settle scores with Xia Ru now, but Xia Ru is too talkative. I’m afraid that a few words from her will make Grandma think that it’s our family who’s in the wrong, or that she’ll direct bad things to us. So I have to follow her to take a look.
“Mom, don’t go. I’m a little hungry. Can you make me something to eat?”
When she heard that her daughter was hungry, Yan Han immediately went to prepare some food.
On the other hand, Xia Wan followed Li Hai to Xia Ru’s room. At this time, Xia Ru was wrapped up tightly and sitting on the bed, depressed.
Seeing that Li Hai had arrived, Xia Ru, immediately pretending to be pitiful, whined, “Grandma, I’m still in pain. What should I do? Why don’t you ask Dad and Mom to take me to see a doctor in the city? Grandma, I can only earn more money for the family after I recover.”
If Xia Wan hadn’t said that, Li Hai would have analyzed the situation. Should he pay a sum of money to cure Xia Ru’s illness in the city, then get her to work to pay her back, or something else?
However, Xia Wan’s words reminded Li Hai that Xia Ru ended up like this because she seduced a man. Because of this, the Xia family was completely humiliated, and she was pushed to the ground in her old age.
