Chapter 245: Li Jin’s Benefits
Li Jin quickly arrived at Xia Wan’s house. She knocked on the door and said,
“Xia Hai, open the door. I know you’re home.”
Li Jin knocked hard on the door, but no one answered. Not giving up, she began to shout even louder.
The villa’s door was made up of two doors. After the inner door was opened, an iron grille stood between them and outsiders. Through the iron grille, one could look at the people outside, but those outside couldn’t break in.
Xia Hai walked out of the house, opened the door, and looked at Li Jin.
Xia Hai sounded helpless. “Mother, what are you doing here again? You’ve just been released, so please stop making trouble. I’m a cripple now, and I can’t make a decision even if I say so. We really don’t have that token here.”
Li Jin waved her hand. “It’s fine if you don’t have the token. I’m not here to talk to you about this. I heard that Xia Wan brought people to the village and found seven girls to work in the factory in the south. Have these people been spirited away? Why didn’t you think of Xia Ru?”
Xia Hai did not know about this, so he was still confused when Li Jin brought it up.
“Mother, I don’t know about these things you’re talking about. Wanwan and the others are selling clothes now. If you really have something to ask, I’ll help you ask her when she comes back.”
Xia Hai then added, “Wanwan has always been a sensible child. Since she didn’t tell Xia Ru about this, it means that she isn’t suitable for the job. I think it’s better if you don’t talk to her. Otherwise, you two might get into another fight.”
Even though the two families were at loggerheads and Li Jin and the others were sent to prison, Xia Hai still remembered his filial piety and did not want to see his mother and Xia Wan argue.
He could already tell that Li Jin was no match for Wanwan when it came to arguing and reasoning. If Li Jin insisted on interrogating Wanwan, he would only be asking for trouble in the end.
Li Jin didn’t care what Xia Hai was thinking. She stood at the door with a cold harrumph with no sign that she was going to leave.
“Go and call Xia Wan back now. Otherwise, I’ll go to her stall and argue with her. You don’t want me to delay her business, right?”
Xia Hai could tell that Li Jin was starting to act shamelessly.
“Alright, Mother, wait here first. I’ll help you call someone.”
Xia Hai walked out, but he didn’t invite Li Jin in. He remembered that Wanwan had said that if Li Jin and the others were allowed in, they would be even more presumptuous in the future. Therefore, Li Jin couldn’t enter this door.
Li Jin saw that Xia Hai had given in, so she stopped making a fuss.
After walking for some distance, he finally relaxed his wrist. When he pushed the door open, he realized that his hand had completely recovered.
He had always known where Xia Wan sold clothes, but he had never been there. This time, Xia Hai followed the direction and saw his family helping customers choose clothes.
Each of them was so enthusiastic and energetic, and the customers all had smiles on their faces. It was obvious that they were very satisfied with their service.
Xia Wan had just brought a customer to buy clothes. She put away the money and looked up to see Xia Hai rushing over. She quickly smiled and greeted him.
“Dad, why are you here?” Xia Wan held his arm and pulled him over
Xia Hai was a little embarra.s.sed. “Your grandmother came over alone. She said that she wanted to talk to you about Xia Ru going to work. I didn’t know what she wanted to say, but considering she didn’t want to cause trouble, he said that he would come to look for you first and asked her to wait over there.”
Xia Wan nodded in agreement.
Early in the morning, she was looking for that seven people when. Xia Ru also wanted this opportunity, but why would she take her there?
After the seven of them finished their statements, Xu Ye got the final preparations ready for them. Now, Xia Wan was very glad that she had made this decision. Otherwise, if they continued to stay in the village, Xia Ru would definitely come looking for them. If they let it slip and Xia Ru really found out about this factory, they would be finished.
“Mom, Brother, look after the stall. I’ll go home with Dad. It’s time to talk to her about Grandma so that she won’t disturb us again and again.”
Yan Han nodded and said confidently, “Don’t worry, Wanwan. Your mother is very capable now.”
Xia Wan and Xia Hai were walking back. Xia Hail s mind was still filled with Yan Han’s confidence..
