“Haha,” Old Mrs Han laughed coldly. “Even if you came over here, you’ll end up being attacked by me.”
What?
Wei Zhiqian looked at Old Mrs. Han innocently.
“Our family’s Zhuo Zi already found a wife, when will you find one?” Old Mrs. Han asked.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
Haha, this group of old ladies, none of them was kind!
“Old Mrs. Han, just take pity on me. Please don’t call my family’s Old Madam to aggravate her. Otherwise, I can’t live my life anymore. Zhuoli’s yesterday is my tomorrow,” Wei Zhiqian said, pleading for mercy.
“Look at what you’re saying. Zhuoli was hit by me every day before he decided to find a wife and came back. Isn’t this a prime example of not being able to do things if they are not hit?! What a good method, how could I not tell your grandma about it?” Old Mrs. Han said.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
Wei Zhiqian looked at Old Mr. Han, his gaze asking for help. Old Mr. Han started to fiddle with the eaglewood beads on his bracelet.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
Why were they so hurtful when it was the New Year!
Couldn’t they let people enjoy the New Year in peace!
In the end, Wei Zhiqian almost cried and left.

Han Zhuoli and Lu Man spent the whole morning just doing New Year greetings.
They had visited all the eight big families.
It cannot not be said that these Old Masters and Old Madams were as cute as the two elderly in the Han Family.
Han Zhuoli entered with Lu Man, and Old Mrs. Han already excitedly asked, “How was it? How was it? What was the reaction of Qian Zi’s Grandma and Grandpa?”
Old Mr. Han laughed and said, “In the afternoon when Zhiqian came, he was attacked by your grandma until he almost cried and left.”
Han Zhuoli instantly felt great. “I did not betray your orders. When he goes back, Zhiqian probably won’t be able to eat at the table. I told Old Mrs. Wei about how you taught me in the past.”
“Good good good!” Old Mrs. Han was very satisfied.
Lu Man: “…”
Her heart ached for Wei Zhiqian.
At that moment, the doorbell rang again.
Old Mrs. Han said, confused, “Who’s here to give their New Year greetings again? That’s not right, Chengzhi and the rest had all come already.”
In the past years, it was just Chengzhi and the rest who came over to give their New Year greetings, and the other people also did not know the address of the family house.
Butler Wang went to the doorway and looked through the camera. “Mr. Wang, please hurry in.”
Butler Wang instantly opened the door.
Turning around, he told Old Mrs. Han and Old Mr. Han. “It’s Wang Juhuai, who came back.”
“Oh?” Han Xijin said in surprise. “He actually came back to the country! This guy, not even telling me!”
There was the sound of clanking.
Xia Qingwei’s teacup almost fell out, but thankfully, she steadied it in time.
Lin Liye asked in concern, “What is it? Did you get burned?”
“It’s nothing.” Xia Qingwei shook her head, in a bit of a daze. “My hand slipped, and I did not hold it properly. It’s nothing, sorry for shocking everyone.”
Shen Nuo asked, “Did it get splashed on your clothes?”
“No, everything is alright,” Xia Qingwei explained.
But her face was still a bit pale.
“You’re alright, right?” Old Mrs. Han had also noticed.
“I’m alright,” Xia Qingwei said with a smile. “I just was a bit shocked. It’s nothing, don’t be worried.”
Lu Man walked over and asked in a low voice, “Mom, how are you? Are you really fine?”
Xia Qingwei held her hand. “I’m really fine.”
Xia Qingwei wanted to leave a bit, but if she said goodbye now, even if she went out, she could not avoid bumping into him.
Furthermore, she really did want to see what he looked like now.
“If you don’t feel well, you must tell me.” Lu Man did not feel at ease.
“Alright.” Xia Qingwei smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, it’s all family here. I have no reason to insist that I’m fine when I’m not.”
