Rebirth of Xia Ze

The fight between Chi Yiheng and Xia Yuan was not discovered due to the remoteness of the location and the lack of traffic in the old Xia family house.

After Chi Yiheng's initial anger, his emotions have gradually calmed down.Although Xia Yuan's words pierced Chi Yiheng's heart, but he was powerless to refute, as long as he thought of Xia Yuan's real identity, and because of this identity, even if he guarded Xia Ze for another 18 years, Xia Ze would not be able to refute it. Ze will definitely not be with him, Chi Yiheng has a natural sense of superiority over Xia Yuan, and there is also a faint sense of pity-like pleasure.

He lowered his eyes, carefully adjusted the clothes on his body, went straight around Xia Yuan, opened the car door and took out the tightly sealed painting.He didn't forget the purpose of coming here today, and Xia Yuan's action was just an act of impulsiveness and loss of reason.Now that he has returned to his senses, he just wants to solve the Xia family's affairs as soon as possible.

Chi Yiheng put on a calm and self-sufficient appearance, and Xia Yuan also returned to his usual gentleness.The two looked at each other, as if nothing had happened, each picked a path around the parking lot and walked towards the backyard of the old house.

The old house of the Xia family has an antique flavor, and the small paths in the courtyard have a sense of winding paths leading to secluded places.Chi Yiheng walked around the parking lot, only felt that the path was dotted with greenery on both sides, and it was quite interesting to walk along the winding road, and the depression in his heart unconsciously dissipated a lot.When he passed a fork in the road and was about to turn to the left, he heard the voice of someone arguing not far from the right.

Chi Yiheng frowned, and was about to leave here quickly, when he heard an angry female voice suddenly raised, the voice was shrill and trembling, "That's Ozawa's thing."

The word "Ozawa" almost instinctively attracted Chi Yiheng's attention, and he subconsciously stopped in his tracks. After the high-spirited female voice, Xia Zhijie's voice resounded faintly, resembling a rascal. "Little sister, why are you reacting so strongly? I didn't say no. Besides, I only borrowed it for a few days, and finally returned it. Compared with me, who is an uncle, the fourth child is really shameless and honest. I'm calculating my son's things."

"Fourth brother is shameless, second brother, how good are you? One is scheming against his nephew, and the other is scheming against his own son. After all, you are just as good as you are, and you are exactly the same."

"Xia Sihui!" Xia Zhijie lost face a little, "Why did you talk to me, have you forgotten your upbringing?"

In the bushes, Xia Sihui took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said calmly: "The calligraphy and paintings left by my father are all Xia Ze's. I will not agree with my mother's proposal."

When she said this, Xia Zhijie immediately became dissatisfied. "Xia Ze is your nephew but not your son. Do you have to fight for him like this? Besides, isn't Xia Bin your nephew? Why don't you fight for Xia Bin?"

"Xia Bin has a father and a mother, but does Xia Ze have one? Don't you just think about Xia Ze's things because Sister Chi left early? And fourth brother, if he really thinks Xia Ze is his son, he won't I should just watch my mother divide up what my father left to Xia Ze. I don't care what you think, anyway, I won't agree."

After Xia Sihui finished speaking, she turned her head and left, but her heart was very blocked.

Yesterday she received a call from the housekeeper, before she had time to settle things around her, she hurriedly bought a plane ticket and rushed back to China overnight.She came back full of worries, she didn't even take a break, and put all her mind on her mother's body.Unexpectedly, when we met on the first day of junior high school, my mother said that it was just in time for her to come back, and the whole family was looking for a time to talk about the calligraphy and paintings of the Xia family.She knew exactly what mother meant.She didn't dare to provoke her mother, so she found an opportunity to find her second brother who had always been close to her and wanted to ask what happened, but what she heard was that the second brother was also thinking about those things.

Xia Sihui couldn't figure it out, if everyone in the Xia family lived in poverty, and everyone lived by pointing at those calligraphy and paintings, even though it was unreasonable to fight over it, it was justified.But everyone in the Xia family has no worries about food and clothing, and is extremely wealthy.Those things are just dead things on the icing on the cake, why do people have to calculate and calculate about it.

When Xia Sihui was born, the turmoil in Huaguo had come to an end.At that time, the Xia family had been rehabilitated, and the standard of living was not as good as before, and it was much better than ordinary families.She has no memory of hard times, but she often hears her second brother mention the hardships of the past.My father was reforming in the countryside, and my mother survived those days alone with her three sons and one daughter.According to the second brother, when they were at their worst, the five of them, the mother and the son, ate a dry and hard sesame seed cake together.Everyone pushed back and forth, clutching their cramping stomachs and saying they were not hungry. In the end, each of them took a small bite, leaving most of the rest for the youngest Xia Zhicheng.

Xia Sihui always remembered the story told by her second brother. She couldn't imagine what it felt like to be hungry, but every time she heard this story, she felt the deep affection of the family.But since when did everyone change?Start all kinds of small calculations?The relationship between brothers and sisters is becoming more and more alienated, and even fighting for a little profit is hideous, unusually ugly?

Xia Sihui walked to the fork in the road, after thinking about it, she turned in the direction of Wufutang.Xia Zhijie followed her out, but chose another direction.

Not long after the two left, Chi Yiheng's figure flashed out from one side.He looked coldly at the back of Xia Zhijie leaving, and squeezed the painting in his hand tightly with his slender fingers, so hard that the veins in his hand burst out.

The calligraphy and painting that Grandpa Xia left for Xia Ze, Xia Zhijie's so-called borrowing, Xia Zhicheng's calculations, and the "Mount Lu Mountain under the Moon" in Xia Ze's hand a few days ago are all connected in this way.

Chi Yiheng's eyes were deep. Before he came, his father specially warned him that this matter was a scandal of the Xia family. For the sake of the Xia family's face, they tried not to get involved too much.But now after hearing these words, what face does the Xia family need?He thought of his father's praise of Mr. Xia's integrity last night, and compared it to the current Xia family, he only found it ironic.

Chi Yiheng lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in it, and walked towards the backyard in the direction of Xia Sihui from a distance.According to what Xia Sihui said, the calligraphy and paintings left by Mr. Xia are all Xia Ze's. Although he really wanted to get these things back for Xia Ze, when his eyes fell on the "Picture of Heralding Spring" in his hand, But he suppressed this thought.

Grandma Xia didn't keep it strictly, and those calligraphy and paintings are now probably confused with real and fake.Now, through the Xia family's own investigation of the authenticity, it won't be too late for the Chi family to come forward after the Xia family solves the trouble.

The group of three people had different thoughts, but they all walked in the same direction.

In Wufu Hall, Grandma Xia was sitting on the bed, and only Xia Zhicheng was with her in the room.Looking carefully, the atmosphere between the two is not good, there is an invisible barrier between them.

Grandma Xia glanced at Xia Zhicheng faintly, and said, "According to my opinion, when Sihui comes back this time, find a time for the whole family to get together to discuss the disposal of those calligraphy and paintings again."

Xia Zhicheng didn't speak, and said in silence for a while, "Xia Ze is my son after all."

His objection was expected by Grandma Xia, who said unhurriedly: "I know Xia Ze is your son, you listen to me first. Back then your father insisted on leaving these things to Xia Ze, your elder brother and second brother I'm dissatisfied, but your father can't help it. You quarreled with your second brother yesterday, and you heard it. After all these years, this incident is still a thorn in his heart.

Why did your father leave these things to Xia Ze back then?You and I both know why.He felt sorry for the Chi family and wanted to make up for Xia Ze.But have you ever thought about how old Xia Ze is?Can he keep these things?Are you not afraid that Xia Ze will ruin it?Even if Xia Ze didn't spoil it, what would the Chi family say if they asked?Like what the second child said yesterday, Xia Ze is neither the eldest son nor the grandson, and the Xia family is not dead, so why should these things be left to him alone over Xia Ze's uncle?The Chi family wouldn't suspect that there was some unknown reason for this?How much effort did your father and I put in to suppress that matter back then, aren't you afraid that the Chi family will turn upside down again? "

Even if the Chi family doesn't doubt or ask anything, Ke Zhicheng, you have to remember that you are a person who will do great things, and your mother has high expectations for you.Are you satisfied with a small sea city and don't want to move to Zhongjing?No matter where you go, you can't be alone, you need your family to support you.Compared with the old house of outsiders, these people surnamed Xia are the ones who will never turn their backs on you.Are you willing to cause estrangement between brothers because of these calligraphy and paintings?leave you alone?Zhicheng, you can't be short-sighted, think about it carefully. "

Grandma Xia's words made Xia Zhicheng silent again, and these words of his mother just hit his secret worry.He has been hiding Xia Ze's will all these years. On the one hand, he feels that Xia Ze is still young, and he is afraid that he will know about the nonsense and ruin things.On the other hand, why not worry about the Chi family asking about that incident back then.As for the family support his mother mentioned, Xia Zhicheng didn't care much.As long as he can bring enough benefits, the Xia family will unite around him.Just like what my mother said, the eldest brother and the second brother have always been dissatisfied with the matter of their father's will, why didn't they mention it all these years?Isn't it because he has brought enough benefits to the family all the way through the promotion, so they can hold back.This time, it was also a mistake that caught the second brother's fault, and the second brother became angry for a while before proposing the will, otherwise the second brother could continue to bear it.

On the one hand, Xia Zhicheng felt that what his mother said was reasonable, on the other hand, he finally remembered that he knelt in front of his father's hospital bed and swore that he would take good care of Xia Ze and would never wrong him.From Xia Zhicheng's point of view, it was nothing if he borrowed one or two calligraphy and paintings. He could compensate Xia Ze with more things, and he would never let his son suffer.But if the calligraphy and paintings were redistributed according to his mother's wishes, it would be hard to say how much could be distributed to Xia Ze, and he was a little bit hesitant to make up his mind.

Grandma Xia saw that Xia Zhicheng's expression was relaxed, and was about to say a few more words when she heard Xia Sihui's voice at the door.

"Did mother take her medicine in the morning?" Xia Sihui asked the doctor who was guarding the door.

Grandma Xia stopped talking, and secretly complained that Xia Sihui appeared at an inappropriate time.Her little daughter's temper completely followed her father's, she was very naive.Chi Xinyun only treated her a little bit back then, and she always remembered it in her heart. She has been devoted to Chi Xinyun for so many years.Speaking of which, she was not worried about Xia Zhicheng's objection to this proposal. As long as the fourth child weighed the pros and cons, she should know that what she said was right, and it was Xia Sihui who gave her a headache.It's true that children are debts, and it's so troublesome to pay her back.

Grandma Xia complained in her heart, and watched Xia Sihui walk in with a smile on her face.

"Mother is awake?"

Grandma Xia hummed, and said: "I'm fine, Sihui, you've been on the plane all night, go to sleep."

"I am not tired."

Xia Sihui coquettishly moved to Grandma Xia's side, glanced at Xia Zhicheng, and deliberately mentioned Xia Ze's matter when the three of them were alone.But she was worried about irritating her mother, so she hesitated.

After a while, Xia Zhijie also followed, followed by Xia Zhifei and Chi Yiheng.

Xia Zhijie greeted the few people in the room with a smile as if nothing had happened. "Coincidentally, when I came here, I happened to meet Big Brother and Yiheng."

Chi Yiheng smiled faintly, and nodded to everyone.

Xia Zhicheng's eyes jumped slightly when he saw the painting in Chi Yiheng's hand. In order to save trouble, he didn't mention the matter of "Mount Lu under the Moon" to his family that the Chi family came forward and Xia Ze withheld the painting.Seeing the painting in Chi Yiheng's hand now, he subconsciously thought that Xia Ze had given the original work to the Chi family, and the Chi family was about to send it back, so he immediately wanted to call Chi Yiheng and him outside, what would be the best thing to do? I have passed Grandma Xia on my back.

Before Xia Zhicheng could speak, Chi Yiheng had already taken out the painting.

"This is?" Xia Zhijie asked puzzled.

Chi Yiheng carefully spread out the painting on the table in the room, and explained: "Yesterday, a friend gave this junior a painting, which claims to be the authentic work of "The Picture of Heralding Spring" from the late Song and Tang Dynasties."

"Impossible!" Granny Xia immediately said as soon as the words "Announcement of Spring" came out.

Chi Yiheng's expression remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "Father also said the same thing. The authentic work of "Announcement of Spring" is in the Xia family's collection, so how could it be spread out? But this painting has been authenticated by experts in the industry, and it has been confirmed that it is authentic. .My father saw this painting and thought it was authentic, so I asked the younger generation to send it over to see what's going on?"

After Chi Yiheng explained, he heard the expressions of everyone in the room change, and their eyes subconsciously fell on Xia Zhijie.

Xia Zhijie was shocked, and hurriedly defended, "This matter has nothing to do with me."

Xia Zhicheng snorted coldly and was about to speak, but Grandma Xia interrupted him coldly, "Bring the painting closer, let me have a look."

Xia Sihui was worried about Grandma Xia's body, so she carefully held the painting in front of her.Grandma Xia recognized at a glance that it belonged to the Xia family, she couldn't get it up and fell on Xia Sihui's body, clutching her heart.

"Mother!"

Everyone was shocked, Xia Zhijie's face turned pale, and while going to help Grandma Xia, he argued, "This matter really has nothing to do with me, it must be Shen Jiashi."

Xia Zhicheng said angrily: "Shen Jiashi is so courageous that he dared to steal things from the house. Could it be that you are behind him?"

How dare Xia Zhijie let this basin of sewage be poured on him, if he can't explain clearly, he will be in trouble.Immediately, he said indiscriminately: "What am I supporting? Didn't Shen Jiashi come out from his mother? His mother regards him as her own grandson, and even Xia Bin has to back off in front of him. Is this also my support?"

"Second brother and fourth brother!" Xia Sihui hastily interrupted their dispute.

Granny Xia, who had woken up faintly, heard Xia Zhijie's last words. She felt a severe pain in her heart, supported her body weakly, and said helplessly, "Second brother..."

Xia Zhijie breathed a sigh of relief seeing Grandma Xia wake up, and confessed again: "This matter really has nothing to do with me. I just borrowed the painting to turn around for a few days. I will never let our family's things go out."

His repeated excuses were obviously to push the matter to Shen Jiashi. Grandma Xia pointed at him and wanted to say something. Xia Zhicheng said in a deep voice: "Since the second brother said that it has nothing to do with you, call Shen Jiashi back. What happened yesterday He should also give us an explanation."

"Zhicheng..." Grandma Xia tried to stop her.

Xia Zhicheng didn't listen, but ordered the doctor to take good care of Grandma Xia, and called Xia Zhifei to let Xia Zhifei come back.

"Zhicheng." Grandma Xia said sharply, "Are you going to destroy Jiashi and the Shen family?"

Xia Zhicheng remained silent, and no one in the room spoke.
