Chapter 246 Xia Hai Regrets His PastChapter 246 Xia Hai Regrets His Past
"Wanwan," Xia Hai said to Xia Wan, "I saw your mother selling clothes just now. She made me realize something. When I was young, before I married your mother, she seemed to be just as beautiful."
As he spoke, Xia Hai seemed to be lost in his memories. "When did the smile on your mother's face disappear? I think it was after she married me. Your two aunts were more talkative than her. They were very good at pleasing your mother, but your mother was honest. She only knew how to work quietly behind the scenes.
"At that time, I thought that your mother and I were being filial. Your two aunts loved to take advantage of others and had bad personalities. I thought that your grandmother would understand who was the one who really treated her well.
"But time proved that we were wrong. The old saying is right. The kind will be bullied. Your mother and I have been too simple and honest."
Xia Wan didn't say anything. She didn't know how to comfort Xia Hai.

In reality, though, Li Jin only thought that his family was easy to manipulate. With a few soft words, Xia Hai would obediently give her all the money.
Slowly, Li Jin started to disregard him. She was used to Xia Hai's efforts, and she took them for granted.
Now, Xia Hai and the rest of the family had their own thoughts. They no longer wanted to hand over money to Li Jin. Li Jin couldn't take it anymore. She felt that something that belonged to her had been snatched away.
To put it bluntly, Xia Hai spoiled Li Jin.
If she hadn't been reborn, her parents would have remained simple for their entire lives. In the end, their daughter's marriage was stolen, and the money that they had worked hard for half their lives would have fallen into Li Jin's pocket. Both of their sons would not have had a good ending either. They would have died early, and tragically as well, in a car accident.
In the end, it was all because the Xias did not have a clear understanding of people. They thought that they were filial, but in reality, they were simply tools.
Before Xia Wan could think for long, she returned to the rented villa. Li Jin was sitting on the stone stool at the door. When she heard footsteps behind her, she immediately looked in the direction of the sound.
Seeing that Xia Wan had arrived, Li Jin stood up excitedly and walked towards her.
"Xia Wan, what's wrong with you? Why did you have the chance to go to the factory in the south? You didn't give it to your cousin, but you gave it to an outsider in the village. What do you mean?"
Xia Wan stopped her from approaching and said, "Relax, Grandma. Since you've come to ask about the factory, I have to tell you. Calm down, and we'll talk."
Li Jin was a little surprised and stared at Xia Wan suspiciously.

Li Jin was very surprised. This was very abnormal.
"Xia Wan, you're not right. You didn't talk to me like this in the past. Tell me, are you plotting something?"
Xia Wan raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't expect Li Jin to have a brain.
However... She was very confident that the reason she made up would convince her grandmother.
"Grandma, I'll tell you the truth since you're here. I didn't actually pick these seven people, but Young Master Chen did. He first looks at the girl's hand when he picks his factory workers. They have to be slender and delicate. Xia Ru's hands are no good, to say the least."
When Li Jin heard this, he was unconvinced. "Your cousin's been a smart girl since she was a child. Why can others have this qualification but not your cousin? Finding a job in our small county is hard, yet your cousin could find one. Why can't she do a good job there?
"Xia Wan, I think you're just a sour grape. You don't want your cousin to be successful. Are you afraid that she will surpass you?"
Xia Wan's lips twitched, and she looked at Li Jin somewhat mockingly. "Grandma, you've been blindsided. In your eyes, Xia Ru is very outstanding, but in the eyes of outsiders, she's nothing."
"I'll make it clear to you today. They don't want Xia Ru. Her ability is one thing, but more importantly, Xia Ru is of poor character. They don't want such a person with such an attitude."
