1234 Even Biological Brothers Must Settle Accounts Clearly
“Why haven’t you gone in?” Xia Wen asked.

“I… I don’t know where to go… I don’t know the way…” Shao Yin said shyly.

Xia Wen looked helplessly at the helper who was also standing beside Shao Yin. At this moment, the helper also looked very wretched. She had been working as Xia Jun’s helper for many years. In fact, she had been serving the Xia family since Wu Min was still around. No guest had ever viewed her with any suspicions.

Even these grandchildren of the Xia family showed her respect whenever they saw her. Without her care, Xia Jun probably would not be enjoying such a good quality of life!

It was not as if she had any ulterior motives towards Xia Jun. She had already been married for a long time and had children of her own. Her grandchildren were about to have children!

She stayed on only because Wu Min had treated her very well back then and even asked Xia Jun to introduce the young and handsome men in the army to her. That was how she found her partner in life. Therefore, she was grateful to the Xia family for this gift of lifelong happiness.

When other people were concerned about having enough money for survival, she never had to worry about that. In fact, Wu Min bought her the house that she was still living in!

Everything she had was given to her by the Xia family, so she did her best to take care of Xia Jun in order to repay Wu Min for her kindness in the past.

“Let’s go in. I’ll go with you,” Xia Wen said.

The two of them walked into the house side by side. As soon as they entered, Xia Wen could hear Zhou Luo talking loudly in the living room. She was talking about how many relatives and friends she wanted to invite to Xia Xing’s wedding!

As he listened carefully, he heard mention of the Zheng family, the Zhuang family, the Gao family and even the He family! Zhou Luo wanted Xia Xing’s wedding to be the grandest event in the capital! The Xia family did not even dare to invite these people to Xia Zhe’s wedding. How would Xia Xing have the clout to invite them?

The Zheng family and the Zhuang family might accept the invite as a show of respect to Xia Mao, but the wayward Gao family? It was not even the wedding of Xia Zhe, the most favored child of the Xia family. These people would not give even a minute of their time to Xia Xing, especially since they probably did not even know who Xia Xing was.

“I see Auntie Zhou has many issues to discuss! It looks like I haven’t chosen a good time to come!” Xia Wen said with a smile. He slowly walked to Xia Jun and gently patted his shoulder to reassure him.

Xia Jun smiled slightly, feeling both proud and consoled. He had not doted on Xia Wen for nothing all these years! Xia Wen knew to rush back to help him!

“No, no, no! You’re here at the right time! I’m talking about your younger cousin’s wedding. You can help me come up with some ideas!” Zhou Luo said excitedly.

“Auntie Zhou, go ahead. If there’s anything I can do to help, I’ll do my best,” Xia Wen said politely.

Zhou Luo immediately said, “Xiao Wen is still the most sensible. Then I’ll just speak my mind. Xia Xing and Shao Yin will be holding their wedding soon. When the time comes, we want to use your younger brother’s house as the venue and the bridal chamber. We also want to book the best restaurant nearby. I hear that your younger brother has also bought the house in the backyard, so there should be enough space for our relatives and friends. There won’t be a need to ask them to stay in a hotel!”

Xia Wen and Xia Jun looked at each other. With one glance, Xia Wen understood what Xia Jun was thinking and also knew how to deal with Zhou Luo. This was the tacit understanding which grandfather and grandson always had.

“Auntie Zhou, that’s not right. That house doesn’t belong to my younger brother. It belongs to my younger sister-in-law. Both the houses in the front and back courtyards belong to my sister-in-law, so we don’t have any say in this matter,” Xia Wen said.

“Why are you drawing the line so clearly? Shouldn’t your sister-in-law’s assets also belong to your younger brother? We’re all family, so why draw lines?” Zhou Luo said with a smile.

“No, that’s not possible! Even when I sold my house, I didn’t move into my younger brother’s house! Even biological brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Therefore, there’s no exception for you as well,” Xia Wen said.

At this point, Zhou Luo finally knew why Xia Wen was here. He was sent here as reinforcements! No wonder Shao Yin was sent here so quickly.
“Then what do you think we should do about this matter? Are you really not going to help Xia Xing even though he’s holding his wedding in the capital? Xia Xing is like a younger brother to you!” Zhou Luo said unhappily.

“Auntie Zhou is right. Xia Xing is also my younger brother, so our family will definitely help. However, can you tell me how much is your budget for the wedding?” Xia Wen asked.

“What… do you mean?” Zhou Luo asked as she looked at Xia Wen in confusion. Why was he asking her about money?
