Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Chatting and Joking

"They’re worried their grandfather will deduct their allowances and find chores for them to do. In this family other than for my eldest and second brothers, the rest, aside from me slacking off, receive allowances from our eldest brother, Xia Feng gets a specific living stipend for his studies, the others either hold a position in the company or run their own businesses, but they don’t earn much each month, the family gives them more or less of an allowance."

"If Grandfather speaks up, their allowances might be deducted or stopped." Xia Xi explained in a low voice.

"No wonder they gave me a card." Xia Xi finally remembered that since she came back, the family indeed provided her with a bank card, but she always used her old card for daily expenses and didn’t bother much about the card given by her family.

"Anyway, I’ve been living off an allowance from my brother since I graduated and didn’t start working." Xia Yue laughed as she spoke.

Seeing how scared the four of them got, Grandfather Xia nodded, "All right, I’ll let it go for now. I won’t meddle with you playing with your family, but remember, if you dare to gamble, I’ll break your legs."

"Yes, Grandpa, we understand." The three, including Xia Xin, quickly nodded their heads.

"Alright, enough now. The kids came to visit us, don’t scare them," Granny Xia laughed as she spoke.

"Hmm." Grandfather Xia nodded and looked at Xia Xi and Xia Yue, "To see you two getting along so well is quite surprising, and pleasing."

"Has Xixi been busy lately? Yueyue, you seem to have lost a lot of weight in the few months since I’ve seen you. Are you having a hard time?" Granny Xia lovingly looked at them and asked.

"There’s been some issues recently, so I’ve been a bit busy." Xia Xi nodded.

"No trouble at all. I have an easy time every day. I’ve just been working out a lot recently so I seem thinner, but I feel great." Xia Yue laughed as she spoke.

"As for what you two are doing, we wouldn’t ask. Just be careful out there, don’t get hurt, safety comes first. Everything else comes second to your own safety." Grandpa Xia’s few words were directed at Xia Xi. From his life experience, he could sense a stern aura from her, something a normal young girl wouldn’t possess. As for Xia Yue, he did not sense any such thing, meaning she’s in a peaceful place.

"Thank you for your concern, Grandpa. I understand." Xia Xi took in Grandpa Xia’s words, feeling his concern for her. She’s not one to bite the hand that feeds her and smiled in response.

"Yueyue, the strawberries you sent back last time were really delicious. I ate two in a row and got full." Xia Xin suddenly remembered the strawberries Xia Yue had sent back and laughed as she spoke.

"They do fill you up, but you’d probably get hungry easily if you only eat strawberries." Xia Yue nodded in agreement.

"I’m on a diet, so I’ve bought tons of them to eat as meals. I’ve lost a few pounds already and haven’t felt bad anywhere." Xia Xin said.

Xia Yue looked at Xia Xin’s thin waist, blinked, took a glance at her own waist, and really couldn’t figure out where Xia Xin was fat.

"Xinxin dear, you shouldn’t diet anymore. Look at Yueyue and Xixi, they’re not dieting, if you lose any more weight you’ll be nothing but bones." Granny Xia said, shaking her head as she looked at Xia Xin’s waist.

"Yes, Xinxin. Look at me, I’ve never dieted. Eat when you want, drink when you want, it’s a blast." Xia Yue nodded.

The few of them chatted and joked around in the pavilion.
