"Grandpa, Grandma, I'm back!" As soon as Xia Chuyi entered the Xia Family's doorway, she shouted, almost wishing her voice wouldn't carry.
No sooner had her voice faded away,
"Xia Chuyi, you damned girl, why are you even back? Weren't you going to change your surname to Zhao?" Grandma Xia's angry scolding came blasting out from the main room.
Having offended Grandma Xia's beloved grandson, Xia Chengzu, this treatment upon returning to the Xia Family was expected.
She saw this coming and just laughed it off nonchalantly.
"Sister Mei, Sister Mei, are you there? The matter written in the partition agreement about finding you a job is settled, your appointment letter has arrived!" She stood at the entrance to the courtyard, cupping her hands around her mouth like a megaphone, and yelled energetically inside.
"What did you say?" The three words echoed from all directions.
The door creaked open, and Xia Mei rushed out like a gust of wind.
