Xia Zheng and Xia Jun had not seen each other for such a long time and they had a lot to catch up on. By now, Xia Zheng’s family had already stayed at Qiao Mei’s villa for four days. He felt a little embarrassed and wanted to bring his family to go and stay in the dormitory compound at the research institute.

“Second Granduncle, why are you in such a hurry? My eldest brother has asked for you. The house over there is still under renovation. You can stay here for now,” Qiao Mei said.

“It’s fine. They can take their time to renovate that house. Surely the research institute will find us temporary accommodation,” Xia Zheng said.

“Grandfather! Are you getting too old and confused! Even if the research institute finds you a place, it will only be for you and Second Sister’s family. What about the two of us!” Xia Bai said unwillingly.

“That’s right, Grandfather! You can’t just leave us to our own devices! What about your grandson!” Wang Kun said agitatedly.

Xia Zheng said impatiently, “I didn’t say that I won’t take care of you! Shut up!”

“Second Granduncle, you can stay at my place. You haven’t seen Grandfather for so many years and he must miss you a lot. The two of you should chat more. There’s a reservoir behind my villa! There’s a lot of fish there! If the two of you are bored, you can go fishing!” Qiao Mei said.

Xia Jun smiled and said, “The kid is being filial to you. You should just take up her offer.”

“Alright, then we’ll go with what Xiao Zhe’s wife says!” Xia Zheng said. He was very pleased with these two kids, Xia Wen and Qiao Mei. Among his own grandchildren, only Xia Ding and Xia Chu were dependable people. The rest of his grandchildren were all unruly and willful.

In the past, Xia Zheng was very focused on his work at the research institute. His wife had passed away quite early and it was his colleagues in the compound who helped to take care of his children. Given that the children were brought up by so many different people, they all had some flaws in their personalities. The truth was that he felt very regretful about this. If he could choose again, he would rather go to the countryside to farm and be an ordinary person. This way, at least he would be able to have a happy family life.

It was soon the family reunion festival. During this festival, every family would get together for a reunion and admire the moon. This served to symbolize a happy and united family.

Qiao Mei had already informed everyone to come to the villa for dinner. Xia He was finally done with her confinement period and could attend this dinner.

During this period of time, Xia Guang had been sending Tang Hui to and from work. The two of them had become much closer very quickly. Xia Guang blushed in front of Tang Hui all the time and he started to give her gifts.

“By the way, Big Brother Xia, you don’t have to come and pick me up over the next two days. I won’t be going to work for two days,” Tang Hui said.

“What happened? Did something happen at home?” Xia Guang asked.

“No, that’s not it. I make it a point to sponsor the poor students who come from my hometown. Every year, at this time of the year, I will go to visit them at their homes and also send them some basic necessities,” Tang Hui said honestly.

Xia Guang was a little surprised. Teachers did not get paid a lot, but Tang Hui was actually willing to fork out her hard-earned money for charity. This woman was really a very kind soul.

“It’s tough for you to carry so many heavy things alone. I’ll go with you,” Xia Guang said earnestly.

“Really?” Tang Hui asked expectantly.

“Of course. I’ll come and pick you up tomorrow morning and we’ll go shopping together. I also want to do something for those children,” Xia Guang said.

Tang Hui nodded and agreed to Xia Guang’s request. With Xia Guang tagging along this year, Tang Hui finished sending the items very quickly. In the past, when she did this alone, it would always take her three days to cycle from house to house to deliver the items!

Xia Guang heard from those families that Tang Hui had been sponsoring them for three to four years already. Not only did she buy them daily necessities, but she was also the one who bought most of the children’s clothes for them.

“Big Brother Xia, thank you so much for today. I thank you on behalf of those children,” Tang Hui said as she stood at the door of the apartment block.

“You don’t have to stand on ceremony with me. This is what I should do. I remember you telling me that your hometown is not the capital. It’s almost the holidays. Aren’t you going home?” Xia Guang asked curiously.

Tang Hui shook her head sadly and said with a dejected expression, “I don’t have a lot of money this year. My family members are also busy with their own lives. Even if I go back to my hometown, there’s no one at home, so I won’t be going back.”

Before Xia Guang could say anything, a figure suddenly darted out from the corner and rushed towards Tang Hui. Xia Guang was previously a soldier after all, so he reacted very fast and gave that person a hard kick.

“Ah!!!” A woman exclaimed as she lay on the ground.

“Zhou Hua!” Xia Guang shouted in shock when he saw who the person on the ground was.

Zhou Hua held her abdomen and shouted angrily, “Bastard! How dare you hit me because of this woman! I knew something must be going on between the two of you! A man and a woman whispering to each other downstairs in the middle of the night! The two of you are shameless!”
