Chapter 10: The Biased Li Jin
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia He’s arrival put Chen Lian’s heart at ease.
“Our son was beaten up by Xia Chen,” she said hurriedly. “Now Xia Wan’s like a crazy person. She’s even banging her head against the wall. She wants to embarrass the entire Xia family.”
As she spoke, she looked at Li Jin as if she was protesting his injustice. “Sigh. We really pity our mother. She’s already so old, but she still has a troublesome granddaughter. These children are just playing around. How did it get to this extent? If word gets out, how will others look at the Xia family?”
“I thought that the girls raised by the Xia family were all shrewd and showed no respect to their elders. She would say ten words when the elders say one.”
Hearing Chen Lian’s words, Li Jin felt that she was right.
She went up to Xia hai and lectured him, “Look at the good daughter you’ve raised. How dare she disobey me, her elder? I can’t control her now, can I?”
“When your father passed away early, I raised the three of you by myself. I washed your clothes when you were young and cooked every meal. In order to take care of you, I lived a hard life, harder than the animals at home. Now that I’m old, your children can bully me, right?”
As he spoke, Li Jin continued to hit Xia Hai, as if she had been wronged.
Unlike Xia Wan, Li Jin couldn’t cry. He could only say how pitiful he was, but in reality, he couldn’t squeeze out any tears.
Xia Hai didn’t completely believe Li Jin and Chen Lian. He knew his daughter well. She was usually very obedient. Why would she seek death and even talk back to Li Jin?
“Mother, is there a misunderstanding? Wanwan is not an insensible child. She’s always been very obedient. How could she have wanted to commit suicide? Why did it become Wanwan who tried to destroy the family’s reputation?
“Wanwan is also a part of this family. Why would she ruin its reputation? Isn’t that something only a fool would do?”
Seeing that Xia Hai did not believe him, Li Jin sat down on the floor and started acting shamelessly. “I’m old now. You don’t believe me anymore. Now that you have your own children, you’re biased. You want to give everything good to your children. I’m old now. You all looking down on me.
“I’ve worked so hard to raise you two and watched you get married and have children. I didn’t expect that you would have everything now, except for me. Xia Wan said that she wanted to hit her head on the wall just now. Everyone heard it, but you still think I’m talking nonsense.

“In your heart, am I a person full of lies? Xia Hai, I’m your mother!”
Seeing Li Jin’s reaction, Xia Hai was at a loss.
As the eldest son, Xia Jiang immediately stopped Li Jin and advised him, “Mother, what are you doing? Let’s talk this out. We’re all family. What can’t we talk about? There’s no need for all that fuss. If the neighbors hear this, they’ll be laughing at our family.”
Li Jin didn’t seem to care and continued to shout regardless.
Xia Wan looked at him coldly, then at Xia Hai’s conflicted expression. She knew that it wouldn’t be that easy to make Xia Hai’s heart turn to them.
At that moment, Chen Lian had already explained the situation to Xia He.
Xia He knew that his son, Xia Yu, had done something wrong, but he didn’t take it seriously.
Xia Wan was just a little girl, and no matter how important she was, she could not be compared to Xia Yu.
Hence, Li Jin would definitely side with Xia Yu. Today, Xia Wan couldn’t escape.

Even those who were protecting Xia Wan couldn’t.
“Mother, don’t make a fuss. Can’t we talk things out properly? Can we sit down and talk?” Xia Hai lowered his body and pleaded.
Li Jin did not get up. Instead, he glared at Xia Wan. “Xia Wan did something wrong today. She hooked up with another man and ruined her reputation. She even wanted to ask for eggs from me. Where would I get eggs for her?
“That’s why she’s holding a grudge against me. Now that she has the chance, she’s threatening an old woman like me. I’m so pitiful. How did I meet such an insensible and shameless granddaughter?
Xia Hai furrowed his brows and quickly said, “Mother, what are you saying? How did Wanwan hook up with a man? You can’t say this blindly. If this gets out, then Wanwan’s reputation will be ruined.”
