Dong ihua left with so disappointnt. She had indeed co hoping Xia Xiao would help, wishing that Xia Xiao and Gao Jiaxing might persuade her family mbers, and perhaps they would agree.
But how could Xia Xiao and Gao Jiaxing possibly ddle in the affairs of the He Family? As soon as Dong ihua left, Xia Xiao went upstairs to discuss Dong ihua’s matter with Gao Jiaxing.
Gao Jiaxing simply said, "You did the right thing by not agreeing."
Xia Xiao asked, "What, do you also think it’s wrong for her to want to remarry?"
"It’s not a question of right or wrong, ah, we really shouldn’t comnt on other people’s family matters," Gao Jiaxing didn’t want to talk about Dong ihua’s situation.
Xia Xiao didn’t pursue it further, as they weren’t going out on the first day of the New Year, and tomorrow her older and second sisters’ families, along with Weilin, would be over.
"Mom, co down for mahjong," Spirit called from the doorway.
Xia Xiao was tempted to play. She enjoyed playing mahjong, but she didn’t have much ti for it, only once or twice a year.
Seeing Xia Xiao’s eager expression, Gao Jiaxing said, "Let’s go, let’s play mahjong."
Right away, the couple went downstairs, where in the living room two tables were set up. Gao Guoqiang, Zheng Xianghong, along with Feiyang and Li Min were at one table, while Feiteng and Spirit were teaching their grandparents how to play.
As soon as Feiyue and Feiyi saw their parents, they hurriedly said, "Mom and Dad, sit over here."
When the ga began, the children declared they wanted to win New Year’s money from their parents. Xia Xiao laughed, saying that they were old enough to not want New Year’s money anymore and should hurry up and contribute their earnings.
Unlike the harmony and joy at Zheng Xianghong’s table, after a few rounds at Xia Xiao’s table, Feiyue and Feiyi started to cry out, "No way, no way, Spirit, co and substitute for Dad. He keeps helping Mom win, and we’re losing badly."
"I don’t know how to play," Gao Jiaxing said with an innocent face, indicating it wasn’t intentional.
Yeah, right, as if we’d believe that; it was obviously on purpose, the children exchanged glances, expressing disdain for their father.
However, after a few rounds, Gao Jiaxing switched places with Spirit and moved next to Xia Xiao.
Then, after a few more rounds, the kids were howling, "Mom and Dad are wiping us out!"
They had initially thought to go easy and let their parents win to make them happy, but they hadn’t expected their parents to be so lucky. It was a total sweep.
So Feiyue and Feiyi ran off to the other table, and Feiyang and Feiteng ca over, while Li Min taught Zheng Xianghong.
Gao Guoqiang knew how to play, and Zheng Xianghong had so knowledge, but she would often misread her hand or accidentally make a false Mahjong.
After Feiyang and Feiteng joined in, Xia Xiao wasn’t as lucky anymore, but after a while, she gave her spot to Gao Jiaxing and went to watch Zheng Xianghong play.
But to her surprise, Gao Jiaxing started losing consecutively, squandering all the earnings, "Xiaoxiao, co save quickly!"
Ha ha, Feiyang, Feiteng, and Spirit laughed joyfully, loving to see their dad losing.
On this first day of the New Year, the family played mahjong, which was incredibly fun.
In the afternoon, they stopped playing mahjong and instead played card gas, with the loser having to stick on a piece of paper.
Whenever she had a mont, Spirit would look through the cara, click-click, capturing everyone’s natural and beautiful monts on film.
On the second day of the New Year, the families of Gao Chunfang and Gao Lifang, as well as Weilin and Ge Liang, ca over, and the atmosphere grew even livelier.
Crackling fireworks from outside mixed with the sounds of mahjong inside, creating a symphony.
Gao Guoqiang and Zheng Xianghong were in high spirits, surrounded by a horde of children and grandchildren, and everyone took nurous family portraits.
This New Year, Spirit’s cara never stopped, and who knows how many rolls of film she had prepared.
By the third day of the New Year, Xia Xiao expressed a desire to go to Nanhua Mountain.
Several children joined in, everyone drove around Nanhua Mountain. Since Xia Xiao planned to build an animal zoo, the children were very invested, even offering many suggestions.
At night, while Gao Jiaxing and He Xuebing were gathering with the team, Xia Xiao said she wanted to sleep and asked the children not to disturb her. She closed the door and went to Black Bear Cave through her secret space.
It had been a long ti since Xia Xiao visited, but because the black bears had sensitive noses and were familiar with her scent, they welcod her warmly upon her arrival.
Xia Xiao talked to them, regardless of whether they could understand or not, about her plans to turn Nanhua Mountain into an animal zoo.
She released so spring water and left so vegetables from her space, then Xia Xiao prepared to leave.
Suddenly, Shitou sighed, and Xia Xiao asked, "What’s wrong?"
"I just felt a slight vibration."
As soon as Shitou finished speaking, Xia Xiao said, "Energy stones? Impossible, isn’t it? We’ve been here many tis. If there were any, we’d have found them long ago."
"It’s not here," Shitou said. "Let’s head east."
"Okay," Xia Xiao and Shitou occasionally ca out of the space and went back in, back and forth until they reached a certain place.
Suddenly, Shitou said, "Isn’t that the mine?"
"Which mine?" Xia Xiao asked reflexively.
"Which mine here? There’s only one."
As Shitou spoke, Xia Xiao realized, "You an you felt the energy vibrations here?"
"Yes," said Shitou, puzzled. "I haven’t felt it here before. Maybe it’s not, it might be so other substance."
"Let’s go check it out." Xia Xiao checked the ti and thought that Gao Jiaxing wouldn’t be back so soon, then decided.
"This mine’s been completely excavated," Shitou said along the way.
"So many years have passed, decades, right? It’s definitely been mined out a long ti ago." Xia Xiao took out a flashlight and shone it around.
Since the mine was exhausted, there were no guards present, so Xia Xiao and Shitou could be there without anyone around.
Soon, Shitou found a small energy stone, a very small one, and felt sowhat disappointed.
Xia Xiao, on the other hand, happily said, "Although it’s just a small one, it still ans that your perception has improved. You see, you could feel it all the way from Nanhua Mountain, that’s a good thing."
"Maybe it’s because of the active volcano," Shitou brought up the active volcano, feeling excited at heart.
The energy stones in that active volcano were not just a big piece of at but rather a dragon’s at. However, he could only look at it and not eat it, which hurt Shitou deeply.
"We should hurry back," Xia Xiao, holding the energy stone, took Shitou back into the space.
"Okay."
They then returned to the Gao family, and Xia Xiao gave the energy stone to Shitou before she ca out on her own.
At that mont, the sound of Feiling knocking on the door echoed, "Mom, Mom, are you in there? Answer ."
Xia Xiao, startled, quickly responded, "I’m taking a shower, what is it?"
"Oh, nothing, then you keep showering," Feiling’s voice faded away.
Xia Xiao hurriedly grabbed clothes and rushed into the bathroom to shower, thankful that she had locked the door. Otherwise, if Feiling had entered and not found anyone, it would have been difficult to explain.
When Xia Xiao finished showering and opened the door, Feiling imdiately ca over.
"What’s wrong?" Xia Xiao looked at Feiling.
