120: Finally realized the mistake at 120!

120: Finally realized the mistake at 120!

Xia Yuzheng heard Xu He express her thoughts so directly for the first time.

He was stunned…

But remembering how distant Xia Ye had been towards him yesterday, he couldn’t come up with any rebuttal.

After a long pause, he tentatively asked, “Do you really think…

I haven’t been good enough to Yeye?”

One minute later.

After being kicked out of the bedroom by his wife, Xia Yuzheng smoked in the living room.

He kept the window open to prevent his wife from smelling the smoke.

Through the living room window, he noticed that today, like last time, his younger daughter had left the house without taking Wang Dahai’s car.

And Wang Dahai showed no reaction, just routinely wiped the car as if he hadn’t seen his younger daughter.

Xia Yuzheng called Wang Dahai in, he wanted to find out what exactly was going on.

“Sir,” Wang Dahai said as usual, “The second young miss has always been like this; she doesn’t like to ride in the car but prefers to ride a shared bicycle.”

Having been displeased for a long time, and seeing that Mr.

Xia finally asked him, he couldn’t help but add, “The second young miss’s personality is quite difficult to get along with, unlike the elder young miss…”

Having said that, he glanced at Wu Ma, who was tidying up the household nearby.

If it had been in front of the lady, Wang Dahai wouldn’t dare say such things, but he vaguely heard from Wu Ma that the master seemed to favor the elder young miss.

Wu Ma, being more involved in the house, saw more than he did, and since Mr.

Xia shared their view, he dared to speak out.

It was a good opportunity for Mr.

Xia to discipline the second young miss, to teach her some decency instead of always being defiant and difficult for them.

However, upon hearing his words, Wu Ma did not show any expression like ‘well said, Mr.

Xia should know,’ instead, she cautiously stole a glance at Mr.

Xia, as if observing his reaction.

“Difficult to get along with?”

Indeed, within just a few seconds, when Mr.

Xia heard the words and looked up at Wang Dahai again, his gaze was solemn and icy, quite terrifying.

Wang Dahai couldn’t help but straighten up, unclear of his emotions, suddenly feeling a bit panicked.

Xia Yuzheng’s generous palm slammed on the table, authoritatively saying, “You, a driver, are waiting for the second young miss of the family to initiate interaction with you?

Now that the elder young miss is not living at home, your responsibility here at the Xia Family is to drive the second young miss.

If she does not wish to use your car, do you think you have any necessity to remain at the Xia Family?”

Wang Dahai’s eyelids twitched fiercely.

He looked again towards Wu Ma, but she just pretended to ignore his gaze.

When the second young miss first returned, Wu Ma indeed felt that, compared to the well-read and genteel elder young miss whom she had watched grow up, and whom Mr.

Xia overly indulged, a second young miss brought from the village could not possibly shake the elder young miss’s status.

But ever since the elder young miss left home a while ago, Wu Ma gradually felt that something was amiss.

As Wang Dahai mentioned, she was more in tune with the news being inside the house.

If she was surfing 5G, then Wang Dahai was still a pager user.

Wang Dahai began to understand Mr.

Xia’s words somewhat, feeling as if he was struck on the head by a heavy stick,

As he often gossiped with Wu Ma about the second young miss, his dissatisfaction with her had grown over time.

Only when he heard Mr.

Xia’s words did he finally realize, regardless of whether Mr.

Xia was partial to the elder young miss or not, the second young miss was the master, while he was just a driver.

If the master doesn’t use his service, wouldn’t he become useless?

Yet, there he was, brazenly blaming the second young miss for being difficult to get along with…

Wang Dahai’s face suddenly flushed with shame.

Facing Xia Yuzheng’s stern look, he was startled, and quickly bowed to apologize, “I’m sorry sir, I have not performed well, forgetting my place.

I’ll be sure to…”

Xia Yuzheng knitted his brows tightly, too impatient to listen to any promises, and interrupted directly, “Start driving and follow her immediately.

If tonight I see Yeye returning by herself on the bike, you will leave the Xia Family immediately!”

Wang Dahai repeatedly agreed, taking the car key and leaving in a flurry.

By the side, Mrs.

Wu’s work had also stopped for quite a while, her heart filled with extreme trepidation.

Mr.

Xia’s distinct stance clearly showed the significant position of the second young mistress in the Xia Family.

Thinking of her previous disrespectful behaviors towards the second young mistress, Mrs.

Wu suddenly felt her forehead turn dark and her lips begin to tingle…

Xia Yuzheng’s gaze slowly moved toward the front gate.

It had been a long time since his daughter was home; he had always assumed that, at home, there were servants at her service and a driver to follow her when she went out.

But unexpectedly…

The driver’s negligence was one thing, but daring to grumble about his younger daughter right in front of him was another.

If the driver was like this, he was sure the servants were not much better.

It seemed he had been rightly scolded by his wife.

As the master of the house, his attitude directly determined the servants’ attitudes.

It seemed this situation was related to his past greater concern for Yourong.

Yet his favoritism towards Yourong had other reasons…

He had intended to take good care of this child, but he had not expected her recent behavior to be so disheartening.

He could tolerate other mistakes, but if it hurt Yeye, he could not bear it…

Today, Xia Ye went out to purchase some gardening supplies; as she was watering Lanlan (a certain blue mutant potted plant: precisely for this reason) earlier, she noticed that its rhizome was growing very fast, the previous pot had cracked a large fissure and was continuously leaking water.

She had no choice but to temporarily move the pot to the living room balcony.

She needed to buy several large pots and a few bags of chicken manure soil.

At the flower, bird, and fish market.

With over a hundred stalls, Xia Ye walked around once, looked at the faces of the stall owners, and accurately found the old man who sold items the cheapest.

She bought three concrete pots and four bags of chicken manure soil.

The old man was especially amiable, thoughtfully stacking the three concrete pots securely together, tying them tightly with a rope, even leaving a hand strap on top for carrying; he did the same for the four bags of chicken manure soil.

These two large items each weighed several dozen kilograms.

The old man grinned, “Our concrete pots are always well-made, providing warmth for plants in winter, breathable and exceptionally sturdy, but there’s one drawback, they are very heavy.

Young lady, where is your family?

Let me help you carry this out and you can have them come to pick it up…”

Xia Ye handed him the money, “No need, I can carry it myself.”

The old man turned back to get change, “Young lady, you must be joking, how could you possibly…”

Upon turning back with the change, he saw Xia Ye carrying a concrete pot in one hand and a bag of chicken manure soil in the other, effortlessly lifting them off the ground, both items at the same time.

The old man held the money in his hand: …

His thoughts were in disarray in the wind.

It was only after leaving the market that Xia Ye started to worry.

Carrying them was easy for her, but the shared bike she intended to use would definitely be overloaded.

Just then, a familiar car stopped not far away.

Wang Dahai, drenched in sweat from urgency, exited the car and, abandoning his usual disdainful lightness, hurried forward in two strides, “Second Miss!

Please put that down, I will help you carry it!”
