Chapter 2320: Causing Havoc at the One-Month-Old Celebration Banquet

The rag was wrapped around a dirty silver bangle which looked very old. Xia Wan recognized it immediately. This was the birthday gift that Zhou Hua had bought for Xia Yan when he was born!
“Auntie Zhou, there’s no need for you to dig out these old items. I remember that there’s a set of gold jewelry among Xia Hai’s gifts. It’s from Third Aunt-in-law. You should keep this silver bangle for Xia Yan’s children,” Xia Wan said coldly.
No matter how much Xia Wan disliked the third branch family, they were all members of the Xia family. Her relationship with them was definitely closer than with Zhou Hua. At this moment, they must be “united against outsiders”.
Recently, Tang Hui had made a lot of money after working with Qiao Mei. They had already launched those practice workbooks for sale and they made more than 300,000 dollars as soon as the workbooks hit the market. Tang Hui did not get a big share of the earnings and only received o60,000 dollars, but it was already enough money for her to spend for a long time.
Zhou Hua’s expression darkened. She pointed at Tang Hui and scolded angrily, “What’s so good about gold! You extravagant b*tch! You must have spent all of Xia Guang’s money!”
“Madam Zhou, you have to be careful with your words. Our third aunt-in-law earned all that money herself. Besides, isn’t my third uncle’s money meant for my third aunt-in-law to spend? Otherwise, you can go ahead and buy gold jewelry for your biological grandson so that our aunt-in-law won’t have to give that set to him,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
She really enjoyed seeing Zhou Hua getting all worked up. The crazier Zhou Hua behaved, the happier she felt. Anyone with a discerning eye would definitely be able to tell which party was in the right and what kind of person Zhou Hua was.
“I don’t have money because all of you chase me away! You force Xia Guang to divorce me! You even make me leave with nothing! I’m in this situation because of all of you!” Zhou Hua screamed hysterically.
All the Xia family members ignored Zhou Hua and went about their own business, treating her like she was invisible. Shao Yin suddenly felt a little awkward. After all, she was still the Xia family’s daughter-in-law. The current situation would make it hard for her to return to the Xia family.
“Mother… Tang Hui is right there… Don’t you want to take revenge on her? As long as… as long as you can cause chaos in the Xia family, I will let you take care of Xia Hai in the future!” Shao Yin said to Zhou Hua, keeping the volume of her voice at a level that only the two of them could hear.
Immediately, there was a glint in Zhou Hua’s eyes. She was feeling totally hopeless now and felt that Xia Hai was her only way out. As long as she could get Xia Hai, she would even be willing to commit murder!
“Ah!!! I’m going to kill you!” Zhou Hua shouted as she ran towards Tang Hui. As Tang Hui was standing at the back of the crowd, when Zhou Hua pounced on her, she fell over and hit her head forcefully against the ground. She immediately felt dizzy and was unable to move.
Zhou Hua kept punching Tang Hui with all her might and even bit Tang Hui on the shoulder, acting like a rabid dog. Qiao Mei took action without thinking and moved forward to kick Zhou Hua away. As everything happened so suddenly, Qiao Mei did not manage to control her strength well. Zhou Hua hit the wall on the opposite side and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing that the matter had been blown up, Shao Yin went to take cover, feeling satisfied. Although she could not be the villain in the Xia family, there were naturally other people who were willing to take on that role. If Xia Xing still did not want to listen to her, she did not mind doing something like this again.
In the beginning, she was worried that Xia Xing would divorce her, but whatever hold he had on her had to do with those things that happened before she got married. She had long lost her good reputation back in her village, so she did not care about being linked to any more scandals. After she got married, she had conducted herself well and did not do anything out of line. In this era where sons were favored over daughters, she had even given the Xia family’s third branch family a grandson!
If Xia Xing divorced her without any good reason, the Xia family would definitely face strong criticism! No one would stand on the side of a man who found fault with his wife and abandoned her after he started doing well for himself.
“Send Madam Zhou to the hospital first.” Xia Wen waved his hand to ask the bodyguards to come over.
Qiao Mei reluctantly took out two medicine bottles from her pocket. She fed Tang Hui the golden liquid and gave the green liquid to the bodyguards to feed Zhou Hua.
She knew that the kick she gave Zhou Hua was a fatal one. If she did not provide Zhou Hua with her life-saving ginseng juice, Zhou Hua would probably die on the way to the hospital.
In the room upstairs, Xia Xing was getting scolded by Xia Jun.
“Look at the kind of woman you found! Your father had bad taste in the past! You’re the same now! What do you want me to say! Fortunately, your eldest cousin reacted quick enough and ensured that the child was protected! What if something happens to the child! What will you do then! Do you think you have a spare life to exchange for Xia Hai’s!” Xia Jun roared.
“Grandfather, do calm down. Xia Xing doesn’t know that this will happen either,” Xia Wan said gently as she handed him a cup of tea.
“Grandfather, I didn’t invite my mother. She came here on her own accord,” Xia Xing said aggrievedly.
