“i don’t care! you have to think of a solution for me! i must have what the others have! i didn’t marry into your xia family to be bullied! why can your third cousin-in-law’s children get such lavish banquets, but not mine! even your father’s second wedding gets more attention than our child’s one-month-old celebration banquet! you’re such a useless father!” shao yin pointed at xia xing’s nose and scolded him angrily.
fortunately, the walls in xia jun’s house were fairly soundproof and he did not hear what shao yin said. otherwise, she would not be able to organize any banquet for xia hai at all.
xia jun did not really care about all these issues. he was more concerned about the future of the third son’s family and xia hai’s future development. from the looks of it, xia xing and shao yin would not be able to raise xia hai well. he decided to send xia hai to stay with xia xiu once the boy learned how to talk.
back then, xia zhe and the other children were brought up by xia xiu in the army base from a young age. all of them were doing well for themselves now, so he felt very much at ease to leave xia hai in xia xiu’s care.
xia xing dragged shao yin out of xia jun’s house. along the way, xia xing had to listen to shao yin’s nagging and all her requests related to the celebration banquet. each of her requests was something too extravagant for their own small family to fulfill. given their relationship with the rest of the xia family members, it was likely that no one would want to help them.
“should we invite auntie tang to xiao hai’s celebration banquet?” xia xing asked tentatively.
shao yin chased xia xing off the bus at the bus stop and asked him to head to tang hui’s house immediately. he did not even have a single cent in his pocket and he felt really embarrassed to have to visit tang hui so abruptly. however, if he did not do what he was asked to do today, he would not be able to go home too. xia xing could only brace himself and wait at the door outside tang hui’s house.
today was a workday for tang hui. xia xing waited until 7 p.m. before he saw tang hui coming back from work.
“xiao xing? why are you standing at the door?” tang hui said in surprise.
“auntie tang, i’m here to visit you...” xia xing said sheepishly.
tang hui knew that xia xing must have a favor to ask of her, so she invited him in. this was xia xing’s first time at the new house which tang hui and xia guang moved into. he did not expect tang hui to have decorated the place so nicely.
xia xing knew his mother’s character well. at the very least... although zhou hua and xia guang were together for so many years, their home never felt as “warm” as this one.
“have a seat. your father isn’t in the capital now and it’s probably difficult for you to contact him too. if you need anything, just tell me,” tang hui said gently.
“i... my... we want to hold a one-month-old celebration banquet for our xiao hai. i hope that you will be able to attend it...” xia xing said.
“of course i will. i’ll go on behalf of your father. your father has already phoned me previously and reminded me to go and take a good look at xiao hai and to send him photos! he really likes this child very much,” tang hui said.
