After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Xia Xing briefly tidied up his clothes and rushed to the front yard without even putting on his coat. He picked up a stick and pointed it at Shao Yin,asking "Did you really do those things with another man?"

Shao Yin turned her head to the other side and remained silent. She did not want to say anything about these things. At this moment, she only wanted to harp on the fact that Xia Xing had already slept with her. She did not want to talk about anything else!

The more she said, the more mistakes she would make. She was very clear about this logic!

Xia Jun coughed twice and said, "Xia Xing, put down the thing in your hand. Your eldest aunt-in-law has probably already asked you. So is what Shao Yin said true?"

"It's true… but I'd rather go to jail than let this woman get what she wants! I won't marry a slut!" Xia Xing said through gritted teeth.

"Good! As expected of a child of the Xia family! You have backbone!" Xia Jun said in satisfaction.

During this era, the act of taking liberties with women was not considered a minor crime. The man could be sentenced to jail or even death! Moreover, everyone in his family would be criticized by everyone and they would be disgraced for their entire lives. It was not only Xia Xing who would get into trouble, even Xia Xing's two younger brothers would not be able to hold their heads up high.

Xia Guang rushed into the house from outside and knelt on the ground as he said, "Father! We can't send him to jail! Father! I beg you! We can't send Xia Xing inside!"

"Then what do you think we should do?" Xia Jun asked.

The truth was that Xia Jun had never intended to send Xia Xing to jail. He was just very pleased with Xia Xing's attitude. At least this was a man who dared to take responsibility for his actions!

It may appear to other people that Xia Jun doted on Xia Mao the most, but he actually doted on his youngest son the most. Back then, he had chosen an army unit where Xia Guang had the best chance to get promoted. As long as Xia Guang trained well and completed his missions successfully, Xia Guang would definitely do even better than him at his age. He did not expect Xia Guang to turn out to be such a disappointment.

"Just… just let Xia Xing marry Shao Yin… Then at least he'll be taking responsibility for her…" Xia Guang said.

"Father! Are you asking me to marry a woman who has an affair with another man!" Xia Xing said as he looked at Xia Guang in disbelief.

"Then do you want to drag your entire family down with you! Your two younger brothers are about to make a name for themselves in school! Of course you have to take responsibility for the dirty things that you did!" Xia Guang said.

Xia Xing looked at Xia Guang dejectedly. Even at this point, Xia Guang was only concerned about Xia Lu and Xia Yan and was ready to disregard his well-being for the rest of his life. What a good father he had! Sometimes, he even suspected that he was not Xia Guang's biological child, but a child that Xia Guang and Zhou Hua had picked up from the roadside. Otherwise, why would he be treated so unfairly today?

"In that case, before the wedding, I want the family to split up and live separately!" Xia Jun said solemnly.

Xia Mao immediately said, "Father! Are you so angry that you're all muddled? The family can't be split up!"

"That's right! Father, the family can't be split up! This matter isn't so serious that we have to go to that extent!" Xu Lan said nervously.

Even though Xu Lan hated Xia Guang's family to the core, she still did not want the family to split up. This was not a good thing.

In this era, every family had many children. In fact, it was not really uncommon for families to split up and live separately. There were typically only two reasons for it. The first reason was that the parents were no longer around and the siblings wanted to live their own lives separately. Under such circumstances, they would find the elders in the family to bear witnesses to the family being split up. The second reason was that an adopted son had found his biological parents and wanted to become independent. If he left the family and took nothing with him, he could split from the family.

Apart from these two reasons, this thought would not cross most people's minds. This was because people believed that splitting up a family to live separately would affect a family's fortune! Everyone wanted to have a harmonious and united family. Even when Qiao Zhuang was nasty to Qiao Mei and treated her badly back then, Qiao Qiang still could not bear to split up with Qiao Zhuang and they were still one family.

"Don't try to dissuade me. Let's split up and live separately. We'll all go our own ways and you can all do as you please. Don't come and bother me anymore. When I'm old, I'll go and live with Xia Mao. I'm sure your eldest brother won't treat me badly," Xia Jun said sadly.

Qiao Mei brought Xia Jun a pot of hot tea and said, "Grandfather, my grandfather still lives in the backyard. When you're free, come over and play chess with my grandfather."

The Shao family already thought that victory was within their grasp, but they did not expect Xia Jun to take such a drastic measure! Once Xia Guang's family was removed from the sphere of Xia Jun's glory and influence, they were equivalent to nobodies. They might not even be on par with the common people in the capital!
