Song Yan sensed Chen Lian’s mocking tone and turned to glare at her. “Enough with the sarcasm. Do you really believe that Xia Ye will definitely get into a university?”

“You know, many people manage to get into universities every year, but only a handful from our county make it,” she continued.

“Even if he does get into a university, if it’s not a top-tier one, it remains to be seen if he can handle the big city.”

Chen Lian seemed unconvinced and was on the verge of arguing with Song Yan.

However, it was Xia Chen who intervened, wisely preventing a confrontation.

“Auntie, I came back specifically to avoid seeing you and other aunties argue. Regardless of whether you accept Xia Ruts boyfriend or not, it might be best for you to meet him.”

Xia Chen deliberately left the door open when he spoke, ensuring that his words were heard by the people nearby.

Many were out for a post-lunch walk, and they overheard the conversation. Curiosity got the better of them, and they joined the gathering. One pa.s.serby

said, “This is quite unusual. Let’s go see Xia Rut s boyfriend.”

Only then did Song Yan realize that the door was ajar, and she shot Xia Chen a fierce glare.

“You used to be the most straightforward in the family. Now, you’ve become so cunning. Did you leave the door open on purpose to invite ridicule upon my Xia

In the past, Xia Chen would have been at a loss for words, knowing he was in the wrong. However, dealing with customers had thickened his skin.

He replied calmly, “Auntie, that’s not the case at all. I just believe that it’s essential for you to be aware of this. Do you think Xia Ru’s boyfriend is not suitable?”

“What’s wrong with him being older?” he continued. “He’s financially stable. Hasn’t Xia Ru always wanted a well-off boyfriend?

“Wealth takes time to acc.u.mulate; how can a young man have that much money? Xia Ru must have chosen her boyfriend with her goals in mind. You’ve always been open-minded, Auntie.”

Liu Hua couldn’t help but chuckle discreetly, hiding her face behind her hand to avoid being caught.

She noticed how much Xia Chen had changed. In the past, he would never have been able to say such words that left no room for retort.

Chen Lian joined in, playfully teasing Song Yan. “Sister-in-law, Xia Chen is right. Let’s not do anything today. Let’s go see Xia Ru first. After all, it’s her child who’s returned.”

Chen Lian took the items from Song Yan’s hands and encouraged her to join the group.

The onlookers, eager for drama, also expressed their desire to go.

Song Yan scowled, exclaiming, “It’s my daughter who’s back, not yours. It’s only natural for me to go see her. Why are you all so eager to join in?”

An elderly person spoke up, “Your argument isn’t valid. Xia Ru is your daughter, but she’s also part of our village. Now that she’s with a foreigner, it’s only right for us to a.s.sess his reliability.”

“Even if you’re wise, you’re still a woman. You haven’t seen much of the world.

We’re going on Xia Jiang’s behalf to check on his daughter’s boyfriend.”

Another added, “Exactly, Song Yan. Don’t be ungrateful. If you hadn’t treated

Xia Ru as your own, would we be so concerned?”

Song Yan glared at their faces, growing increasingly frustrated.

She knew exactly what they were thinking—curiosity about Xia Ru’s relations.h.i.+p had led them to tag along.

However, Song Yan, as a woman, had lower status in the village, and these men used their authority and experience to dominate the situation. She had no choice but to reluctantly agree. Through clenched teeth, she said, “Fine, but only one person can go.”

A 50-year-old man stepped forward, volunteering himself. “I’ll go. I’ve seen a lot of people and can help Xia Ru judge the situation.”

The chosen representative was Uncle Chen from the village, known for taking care of the villagers. However, he had one major flaw: a penchant for gossip.

Seeing Uncle Chen stepping up, Song Yan felt even more uneasy. She feared that the entire village would be aware of the situation when Uncle Chen returned.

The others appeared quite pleased with the developments..
