The speaker was none other than Zhao Chunhui. She was the head of the Xia family, Xia Yunlong's first wife, and she also managed some of the financial affairs within the Xia family.
As soon as these words came out, many people looked at Xiang Chen with deep meaning.
This statement seems to mean something.
"My Xia family has three thousand direct members, nearly ten thousand collateral members, and countless servants. Daily food and drink expenses are a huge expense. Every member of the family should contribute his or her own strength."
Zhao Chunhui said calmly: "Needless to say, young people under the age of twenty are the future of the family, and they have an important responsibility to practice martial arts. Those over the age of twenty should serve the family, take on responsibilities, or join the army to make contributions and strengthen our Xia family.
Regarding Dashang’s status, what I said is correct, right?”
"Yes, every Xia family disciple should have his or her own responsibilities and missions and work hard for the family. Only in this way can our Xia family prosper."
"My lady is right. Disciples and clan members of the Xia family should take responsibility for the family."
People in the Xia family also agreed one after another.
Zhao Chunhui glanced at Xiang Chen deliberately, and then said: "So I don't allow people in my Xia family to occupy resources, not do anything for the family, and just eat and drink. Such people are parasites, scum, and rat shit of the family."
!”
Her words made many people look at Xiang Chen jokingly. Zhao Chunhui's words were very targeted.
Xiang Heng also seemed to realize who Zhao Chunhui wanted to say, his face was a little ugly, and he said: "What sister-in-law wants to say, just say it bluntly, why hide it."
"Xiang Heng, why are you excited? I didn't tell you anything." Zhao Chunhui sneered, and then she looked directly at Xiang Chen.
"Xiang Chen, how long have you been in Xia's house?" Zhao Chunhui asked.
Sure enough, when she asked, everyone looked at Xiang Chen.
"It's been more than two months." Xiang Chen said calmly.
"More than two months, very good. In the past two months, you have eaten and drank from the Xia family, and you have received the same training resources as direct disciples. Can you make any contribution to the Xia family?"
Zhao Chunhui asked.
"No." Xiang Chen frowned.
"Just admit it." Zhao Chunhui sneered and said: "Since you are in the Xia family now, you should also make some contributions to the Xia family. Where can you eat and drink for free? You can feel at ease. I am afraid that I, a disciple of the Xia family, will also feel the same.
Not convinced."
"Sister-in-law, you've had enough!"
Xiang Heng slapped the table and stood up, saying angrily: "Why are you fighting with a child? If you think Xiang Chen is wasting the resources of the Xia family, just deduct his expenses from my monthly payment!"
"Xiang Heng, shut up!"
Zhao Chunhui shouted coldly: "Don't forget your current status. You are just a slave of my Xia family. Your monthly payment is already gone. I can only give it to you because of Xia He's face."
"you……"
Xiang Heng was so angry that his face turned livid.
"Slave!" Xiang Chen narrowed his eyes, stood up suddenly, looked at Zhao Chunhui and said, "Aunt Hui, what do you mean? How can my third uncle be a slave?"
"Stop trying to get close to me, you should call me eldest lady." Zhao Chunhui said coldly.
She then sneered: "You don't know, right? Your third uncle has signed a lifelong slave contract in order to allow you to stay in the Xia family."
"What!" Xiang Chen's expression changed and he looked at Xiang Heng: "Third uncle..."
Xiang Chen felt extremely uncomfortable. His third uncle paid such a price for being able to stay in the Xia family.
"Zhao Chunhui!"
Xiang Heng was furious and said, "Why are you talking to your child about this?"
"Please show some respect to me and sit down for me!" Zhao Chunhui shouted.
"Sister-in-law, what exactly do you want to do?" Xia He also asked slightly angrily.
"I just want to say that the Xia family does not raise waste. Xiang Chen, if you want to eat well and keep the Xia family at ease, you must work for the Xia family. The Xia family has a small shop in Jinsha City. I plan to arrange for you to take care of it.
."
Zhao Chunhui said lightly that she wanted to drive Xiang Chen out of the Xia family in a different way.
"I don't agree. This has violated the original agreement!"
Xiang Heng said angrily.
"Humph, the agreement only stated that he would not be kicked out of the Xia family. That is also the Xia family's territory. This does not count. Besides, he is a loser, so giving him a shop is already a sign of respect for him."
Zhao Chunhui sneered: "At least you will have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. This is a treatment that some direct disciples do not have."
"If he leaves here, can Prince Xiang's Mansion let him go? You clearly want to kill him." Xiang Heng said coldly.
"Mom, this does violate Uncle Xiang's original agreement, and I don't agree with it either. It will ruin the Xia family's reputation."
At this time, Xia Qingcheng spoke up.
"Qingcheng, you are confused. I did this because I didn't want him to have the opportunity to pester you about the engagement and affect your future." Zhao Chunhui whispered.
"No one can influence me." Xia Qingcheng said coldly.
"Xiang Chen, if you are a man of character, you should go."
Zhao Chunhui stimulated Xiang Chen.
Xiang Chen looked indifferent and said, "I won't go."
"Why don't you go? Do you still want to eat and drink for free? You are still not a man." Zhao Chunhui said sarcastically.
"Listen!"
Xiang Chen stood up and said coldly: "I won't go because I don't want to let down my third uncle who has put so much effort into it. It's not that I can't live without your Xia family. I won't go because I, Xiang Chen, have a bigger dream."
It’s worth it. There should be a medical hall in the Xia family. I know medical skills. From now on, I will sit in the medical hall and treat illnesses and injuries for the Xia family. I will treat it as Xiang Chen repaying the expenses of eating and drinking at your Xia family."
"Haha, Xiang Chen, are you kidding me? You are the only one who knows medical skills?"
Xia Mingjiang laughed sarcastically.
"Who do you think you are when I'm in charge of the medical hall?" Xia Mingyu, a woman, sneered.
She is a famous pharmacist in the Xia family.
"That's right, Xiang Chen, what medical skills do you know and who do you study under?" Zhao Chunhui asked with a sneer.
"I don't have a master. I read medical books and become a self-taught person." Xiang Chen said calmly.
"Hahahaha, you read medical books and become a self-taught person? This kid is lucky enough to speak out."
"That's right, he can probably catch a cold."
The Xia family burst into laughter.
"Xiang Chen, let me ask you, what level of pharmacist are you?" Xia Mingyu asked with a sneer.
Dashang pharmacist qualifications are divided into elementary, intermediate, advanced and top levels.
"I, Xia Mingyu, am twenty-one years old this year. I am already an intermediate pharmacist. I can reach the level of senior pharmacist in five years at most. My master is the famous top pharmacist of Dashang, the Divine Doctor of China, and the owner of Wanyao Pavilion. You
Who do you think you are, you want to come and take charge of the Xia Family Medical Hall?"
Xia Mingyu is extremely beautiful, with a proud bust and neat, short hair. However, the words she speaks are extremely mean and bitter.
"The master you are talking about is Hua Fang, right? He is my disciple."
