Jia Qingwu couldn't bear to eat the fish she brought back. She checked on them every day and fed them, but unfortunately, some of them still turned upside down.

Xia Chu was fine, and Jia Qingwu persuaded her to go to class. After not seeing her for two days, Tian Mi'er had changed a bit, not as unbridled as before.

This is also due to the fact that Jia Wanlin no longer spoils her. With her mother's support, she does what she wants and doesn't pay much attention to Tian Mier.

After all, the small classroom belongs to the Jia family. The reason why they gave in to Tian Mier before was because even Jia Wanlin and Jia Wanqing avoided Tian Mier.

Now that Jia Wanlin's attitude had changed, the others had also changed accordingly. Although they wouldn't embarrass her in person, Tian Mier felt bad enough that she didn't get any praise.

Xia Chu didn't know anyone besides Jia Wanlin and Jia Wanqing, and had no desire to socialize. Tian Mier stopped picking fights, and instead spent a few days in peace.

But when the small ones don't look for trouble, the big ones come.

Mrs. Jia's sister, Madam Qiu, came to visit.

Seeing her sister, who looked like she was going to accuse someone, asking who Wang Xiachu was right away, Mrs. Jia was still a little confused as to who Wang Xiachu was. "Is there such a person?"

Could it be that my sister is deliberately showing partiality? Madam Qiu was used to being spoiled, and her expression was not concealed. She said unhappily, "Why not? Wanlin and Wanqing call her cousin. Is she the child from the Second Madam or the Third Madam's family? Big sister, you must distinguish between relatives. You and I are sisters, and Mi'er is your niece. How can you let outsiders bully her at will?"

This was truly rude, and Madam Jia was secretly annoyed. If she hadn't had a heart-to-heart talk with her daughter last time, she wouldn't have known how much injustice her own daughter had suffered. Looking at her younger sister's appearance, she felt even more that she had done something wrong. There was also a hint of sarcasm in her words, "Sister, are you here to blame me?"

Madam Qiu hadn't even noticed anyone's expression, and didn't notice that her sister was already unhappy. "Mi'er has been wronged, and as her aunt, don't you care about it?"

Mrs. Jia then remembered who Xia Chu was: her sister-in-law's newly found daughter. Her expression remained unchanged. "Oh? What wronged her?"

Since their last heart-to-heart talk, she had been spending a lot of time with Jia Wanlin. Not only did she care about her food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, but she would also ask about her day and any troubles at dinner every night. There was no daughter in the world who disliked her mother, especially since Madam Jia had only been a little neglectful and hadn't done anything wrong. It was easy for her to win her daughter's heart back, and she became close to her, often chatting with her.

Therefore, Madam Jia knew everything that happened during this period. Not to mention that Sun Juexia didn't pay any attention to others, even if she hit Tian Mier's hand, it was she who started it first.

And it was because of this incident that Lady Jia realized her daughter had almost fallen out with her. She was so grateful that she couldn't blame her.

Mrs. Qiu had no idea her sister had a problem with her and Tian Mi'er, so she exaggerated what Tian Mi'er had said, adding a little more, "When she saw Mi'er, she hit her without even saying a word. I think she's jealous of Mi'er's beauty, or maybe she's resentful of Mi'er's good clothes. People like her can't stay in the Jia family. It's better to just kick her out. She didn't do anything before she came. This time she bullied Mi'er, and next time she might hit Wan Lin. Sister, you can't let her do that. If Wan Lin gets hurt, don't blame me for not warning you."

After saying this, he gave Madam Jia a sidelong glance, as if he felt that she was ungrateful.

Mrs. Jia laughed in anger, not wanting to waste any more words. She picked up the tea and scraped the floating tea leaves with the lid without even glancing at Madam Qiu. "If it's about this, I know."

Even though Madam Qiu was not good at reading people's expressions, she knew her sister was angry. She immediately served tea and sent the guest away, a treatment she had never received before. But she didn't understand why. Hadn't they said so? It turned out that she was deliberately favoring the new young lady. She stood up angrily, "You are Mi'er's aunt. Even if you don't look at me, don't you worry that Wanlin will be bullied in the future?!"

"Wanlin, you don't need to worry about her." She wanted to vent her anger on her daughter, and even dragged Wanlin into it. But thinking of the injustice Wanlin had suffered before, Madam Jia felt even more hypocritical and a little sickening. Her sister's bright face no longer struck her as beautiful; her aggressive expression was ferocious.

Madam Qiu was a little stunned for a moment. A little powder rose at the corner of her open mouth, and she looked a little funny. "Sister, are you going to turn against me for an outsider?"

"I didn't say that." After all, they were sisters. Madam Jia sighed inwardly and softened her tone, "It's just that the new young lady didn't do what you said. Wanlin has already told me what happened. You should ask Mi'er about the details when you go back."

"What do you mean, sister? Could it be that Mi'er would lie to me?" Madam Qiu asked back.

Knowing her sister well, she was afraid that if she said that Tian Mi'er needed to be disciplined and change her domineering temper, she would immediately turn hostile. Well, forget it, everyone has their own fate. Madam Jia wiped the tea from the corner of her lips with a handkerchief and said softly, "That's all I have to say. Think about it carefully. I have something else to do today, so I won't accompany you."

After saying this, Madam Jia stood up to see the guest off.

Mrs. Qiu gritted her teeth and left angrily. She got in the carriage, and the driver asked if she wanted to go home. She felt unhappy and said in a bad tone, "Where else are we going if not home? You're asking that? Don't you have a brain?"

The driver choked and didn't dare to say anything, pulling the carriage towards the Tian family. After a few steps, another voice came from the carriage: Go to the Qiu family.

She would definitely go back and have a serious talk with her parents about her sister's behavior. Where in the world could there be an aunt like that who didn't care when her own niece was bullied?

Humph, she would come again tomorrow. She wanted to see what kind of little bastard Wang Xiachu was, daring to hit her own daughter!

Madam Jia sighed and rubbed her forehead tiredly.

Xia Chu over there didn't know that someone was about to come and cause trouble, and was teaching Jia Wanqing and Jia Wanlin how to play the pipa.

After Tian Mier's experience, the two girls became very close to their cousin. Xia Chu was easygoing and easy to talk to when faced with kindness. The Jia sisters all liked her very much. Wan Qing also found that her cousin seemed to be particularly tolerant of her, so she tentatively acted coquettishly and wanted to learn to play the pipa.

Xia Chu couldn't possibly refuse a primary school student, a cute and pretty one at that. Besides, teaching her a lesson wouldn't be a big deal. With the two of them around, Qingwu Courtyard would be a bit more lively, so naturally, she agreed.

Even Jia Qingwu showed her happiness. She let them choose their own pipa and sat quietly by the side, watching her daughter explain the pipa to her niece bit by bit, identifying the strings, with a smile on her face the whole time.

Aunt Xu asked the kitchen to send some fruit snacks and also asked for some sweet water.

Qingwuyuan hasn't been this lively for a long time.
