Chapter 2016: An Excellent Woman
The reason why the Xia family was able to become the largest family in the capital and have many talents was mainly that everyone in the family was very united. They did not do anything to harm the family.
For example, the Du family, who did not dare to compete with the Xia family openly, had to resort to underhanded means to make things difficult for the Xia family from time to time. No wonder the Xia family looked down on them.
Although Zhou Yijin’s surname was Zhou, she had half of the Xia family’s blood flowing in her. She was like all the Xia family members, born to be rebellious. Hearing that, she scrunched up her nose and snorted. “Why should I leave? She should be the one leaving, okay? I don’t want to trouble Brother Yuzheng.”
“Let’s not talk about her. Let’s talk about Sister Yiwei’s boyfriend and Brother Jinyuan’s girlfriend. Yesterday, I heard Third Uncle say that he went to see Brother Jinyuan’s girlfriend. The old madam was still complaining that Third Uncle didn’t bring her granddaughter-in-law back.”
This 24-year-old woman had grown up in a good family environment. Even though she was mature, she maintained a pure and kind heart. When she faced her family, her words were filled with the innocence of a little girl.
Xia Yiwei picked up the orange from the fruit tray on the coffee table and smiled as she threw it into her arms. “What do you want to know? Are you tempted as well? Do you want to bring a boyfriend home for us to meet?”
“Sister Yiwei, you’re my target!” Zhou Yijin, who caught the orange swiftly, raised her eyebrows playfully. She raised the yellow fruit in his hand and smiled brightly. “I’ll have to ask Sister Yiwei how she managed to remain single for so many years!”
“You’re quite bold, teasing Sister Yiwei! You really need a beating.”
“Jinjin, provoking your mother isn’t that scary. But provoking the queen is.”
Zhou Yijin replied with a look that seemed to say that she was not afraid. Then, she immediately picked up the cut orange and handed it to Xia Yiwei. She hugged her arm and smiled. “Sister Yiwei, just tell me about Brother Jinyuan’s girlfriend. Third Uncle must be very satisfied with her. Otherwise, how could he tell the old madam that she should wait until Little Six comes back and not to scare her away?”
Everyone was really interested in Xia Jinyuan’s girlfriend. As the only one who knew about the situation, Xia Yiwei became the focus of attention.
Xia Yiwei, who was tidying her hair elegantly, met their burning gazes. She curved her lips slightly and revealed an intellectual and dignified smile. “She’s a good woman. Yijin, if I hand you over to Little Six’s girlfriend, you’ll become the pride of your parents in just three months.”
“She’s that good?” Xia Lingxiao was interested. He just wanted to know if their relationship was good. Now that he heard Xia Yiwei’s praise, Xia Lingxiao was interested in Ye Jian. “What kind of woman is she? Tell me.”
Xia Yiwei didn’t mind putting in a few good words for Ye Jian in front of her family. It didn’t matter if she said it or not. As long as they saw Ye Jian, especially the soldiers among the siblings, they would definitely admire her.
“A woman who can catch my eye. Big Brother, that should say enough. She’s a very good woman. She’s skilled, capable, and looks good. She has talent, looks, and skills. Little Six has good taste and will be marrying a treasure.”
The men in the Xia family sat up straight.
The eldest brother, Xia Lingxiao smiled and said, “Our Xia family’s queen has never praised another woman before. It seems that Little Six’s girlfriend is really not bad.”
