Chapter 2314: One-Month-Old Celebration Banquet



"It'll probably be a while longer. Don't be anxious, I'll come back to look for you," Qiao Mei said by way of comfort.

Yin Yue told Qiao Mei a lot of current gossip, including information about Bella's suitors. Their international phone call went on for more than an hour!

"Oh no! Yin Xing is scolding me! I'm hanging up now! Think of me often!" Yin Yue hung up the phone in a panic.

Qiao Mei laughed resignedly. These two were really a pair of quarrelsome friends. Qiao Mei did not feel very happy even after she got hold of the bangle. She kept getting a feeling that this bangle was part of a pair and that there must be many other people out there who possessed superpowers and could use the energy of jewelry to do all kinds of things.

If Gao Tao's jewelry had such functions, then it must mean that there were other people who also owned similar family heirlooms which they kept in the dark. She must keep a low profile now and not become a moving target in the eyes of these "superpowered people".

While Qiao Mei was busy handling the issue regarding Qian'e, there was good news from the family of the Xia family's third son. Xia Xing and Shao Yin had a new addition to the family and it was a boy! Xia Xing had named him Xia Hai and the entire family was overjoyed. Now that the baby was almost one month old, it was also time for Qiao Mei and the rest to prepare their gifts for him.

"I really hate buying things for that family! If we buy expensive things, they'll say that we look down on them. If we buy cheap things, then they'll say that we don't care about them! How about I don't turn up!" Xia He said angrily.

"Don't be angry. Maybe you should just give them money. They won't be able to complain about getting money," Xia Wan said.

"Elder Cousin, you still don't know what they say about me behind my back! The last time, I really wanted to just give them money! They said that I was just trying to dismiss them with some money because I think of myself as being well-off! You don't know how aggrieved I feel then!" Xia He said agitatedly.

Everyone calmed down after hearing that. No matter how hardy Xia Jun was and how clear-cut he was about right and wrong, he was advanced in age now and it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble. This was nothing more than using money to avoid trouble. Money was not an issue for all of them, so they decided to just bite the bullet and go through with it to avoid unnecessary trouble.

However, Shao Yin was much greedier than they had imagined. At this moment, she was already sitting inside Xia Jun's house and telling him about her requests.

Xia Jun hugged Xia Hai happily and said, "This child really looks like Xia Xing when he was young, especially his eyes and eyebrows. The two of them look almost exactly the same. It would have been great if we had a camera at that time. During the celebration banquet, we must ask Xia He to bring along the cameras. Let's take a few more photos to commemorate the occasion!"

"Whatever you say, Grandfather. By the way, we haven't decided on the venue for the celebration banquet. Is there anywhere you prefer? How many people should we invite?" Shao Yin probed.

Xia Jun asked the helper to carry Xia Hai away, leaving only three people in the living room, namely Xia Xing, Shao Yin and Xia Jun. Xia Xing realized that Xia Jun was unhappy and quickly said, "We can hold it at home! We can do it at home!"

"How can that do! This is the third son's first grandchild! And it's a boy!" Shao Yin said

proudly.

"That's true. Since it's the third son's family issue, then you should go and speak to Xia Guang," Xia Jun said calmly.

"But... but Father is outstation and he has no time..." Shao Yin said.

"Then go and talk to Tang Hui. Tang Hui is now Xia Guang's wife and also your stepmother. Although you're not willing to accept the fact, she's the one running the household for the third son's family. I'm just an old man and I can't make any decision," Xia Jun said.
