Chapter 2315: Asking for Help

Editor: Atlas Studios

Shao Yin had never liked Tang Hui. Now that Xia Jun was asking her to go and look for Tang Hui, she felt even more unhappy. Shao Yin said aggrievedly, “She’s not our Xiao Hai’s biological grandmother after all. She definitely won’t care about Xiao Hai’s issues!”

“Then tell me, what is it that you want?” Xia Jun did not want to beat around the bush with Shao Yin. He wanted to hear what she wanted so as to know exactly how shameless she could be!

“Third Cousin-in-law’s mother owns a restaurant, right? I’m thinking about hosting the one-month-old celebration banquet for Xiao Hai there. I also want to invite all my relatives and friends! We can have a big party!” Shao Yin said excitedly.

Xia Jun nodded and continued asking, “What else?”

“Also… I would also like Third Cousin-in-law to make a few sets of clothes for our Xiao Hai! She’s good with her hands so the clothes will definitely look very nice!” Shao Yin said.

Xia Xing hurriedly tugged at Shao Yin’s clothes and said, “What is this issue about new clothes! We don’t need Third Cousin-in-law to make new clothes! All the kids in this generation are still very young. Third Cousin-in-law has the most boys, so we just need to ask her for the old clothes which Xia Fan and Xia Yue have outgrown.”

Xia Jun looked at Xia Xing approvingly. Ever since Xia Guang got divorced and remarried, Xia Xing had matured quite a lot. There was marked improvement in the way he dealt with people and handled issues and he seemed more like a Xia family member nowadays. However, this wife of his… was really the incompetent type!

“Huh! Those are old clothes! What do you know!” Shao Yin said as she looked at Xia Xing angrily.

“What else do you want?” Xia Jun continued to ask.

“Grandfather, I also want Second Cousin to gather her colleagues from the art troupe to put on a show to liven things up at the banquet! It’ll be fun! Also, Eldest Cousin-in-law is from a scholarly family. Her father’s calligraphy pieces are priceless! Perhaps we can ask her father to write a few words of blessing for our child! Also…” As Shao Yin continued, her demands became more and more atrocious. She was definitely trying to take advantage of all the Xia family members.

Xia Jun looked at Xia Xing as he listened to what Shao Yin was saying. Xia Xing lowered his head more and more and did not dare to raise his head to look at Xia Jun at all. Xia Jun also felt a little helpless as he looked at Xia Xing.

“Alright, I hear you,” Xia Jun said impatiently.

“In that case… you are agreeable, Grandfather?” There was a bright glint in Shao Yin’s eyes as she looked at Xia Jun excitedly.

“I ask because I want to know what you expect from me. You’ve said so much, but none of the issues seem to have anything to do with me,” Xia Jun said as he took a sip of tea.

“I just… wonder if you can put in a good word for me, Grandfather?” Shao Yin said obsequiously.

“I’m already so old and I have limited energy. You know where they live. If you have time, you can go and ask them yourself,” Xia Jun said.

“But… but me and them…” Shao Yin said hesitantly.

“As long as you make a booking and put down a deposit at Li Gui’s restaurant, she will definitely organize the event well. After all, she’s a businesswoman. As for the people whom you want to invite, you can just send them the invitation cards. Let Xia Xing handle this matter and check on who wants to attend. You can think about how to handle the rest of the requests yourself. I’m feeling tired by now.” After saying that, Xia Jun wanted to go upstairs to take a rest.

Shao Yin hurriedly stopped Xia Jun and said, “Grandfather! You can’t just leave us hanging like this! Xia Hai is your great-grandson!”

“It’s not as if he’s my only great-grandson. I have so many great-grandchildren and I never have to worry about their issues. Why do I have to take care of everything when it’s your turn?” Xia Jun questioned.

“No need! Grandfather, that’s not what we mean! We’ll take care of this matter ourselves! I’m sorry… for troubling you…” Xia Xing said embarrassedly.

“Yes, you should head back soon.” Xia Jun went back upstairs after saying that.

Shao Yin sat on the sofa in annoyance and complained softly, “Useless thing! What’s the use of having you around! Do you know how much money it will cost to hold the one-month-old celebration banquet! How many people will accept an invitation from us! Without the Old Master’s help, we won’t be able to do anything!”

Xia Xing sighed and said, “Perhaps we should just forget it. Let’s just gather all our family members and have a meal together.”

“How can that do! How can the birth of a Xia family’s great-grandson be so muted! In the future, people will laugh at him! All the other babies get a celebration banquet, so why do we have to do things so simply when it comes to our Xiao Hai!” Shao Yin said indignantly.

“The thing is that the one-month-old celebration banquets for Xia Fan and the other kids were organized by their parents. Grandfather and the other elders did not need to do anything at all,” Xia Xing said awkwardly.

Shao Yin found herself speechless. If she had known that the Xia family members did not care about the third son’s family, she would not have set her heart on marrying into the family. She should have just worked on seducing Xia Wen back then!
