Chapter 2335: First meeting with “Doll” Ma Siyi!

“Look~” Xie Wanghe naturally couldn’t just talk without any evidence. He was just a kid whose hair hadn’t even fully grown yet, and he had already made some preparations for tonight.

He took out several folded newspapers from his pocket, opened them and spread them neatly on the table. He knew very well the old man's feelings for the canal, as he had lived by the canal all his life and even been on a boat when he was young.

When his father Xie Tiancheng bought this boat, he was the one who brokered the neighbors to invest and even took the lead in paying the money.

So don’t think that your cheap father Xie Tiancheng is jumping for joy. Whether you can finally exchange it for a big ship still depends on the decision of the old man in front of you.

《Beijing-Shanghai Expressway will be fully connected by the end of the year! 》

"The impact of the highway on the canal after it is completed!"

"Where should the Millennium Canal, which is gradually declining, go?"

The headlines in the newspapers left Zhou Yipu speechless for a long time. He sat in his chair with his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
“Wanghe, this canal... is it over just like that?” The old man himself probably didn’t realize that what he said at this moment meant that he no longer regarded Xie Wanghe in front of him as a child.

"Grandpa Zhou, the canal will always be there, it just exists in a different way!"

"With rail transport and high-speed truck transport, shipping may be gradually phased out, but tourism can also be developed in the future. After all, the Grand Canal under our feet has a history of thousands of years, and we can't just give it up!"

Xie Wanghe was very sure of what he said, because from his memory he knew that the old man in front of him had a very deep affection for the canal.

"Alas~" Zhou Yipu sighed, and looked up at Xie Wanghe with a complicated expression. "Child, we are old now, and the Grand Canal will depend on your generation in the future!"

"Don't worry, Grandpa Zhou, I will definitely make a lot of money and revitalize the canal in the future!"

"Okay, okay, grandpa has been waiting for this day!"

After that, the old man no longer supported changing ships.

The yard became quiet again, the sky began to darken slowly, and everyone went back home to look for their mothers.

Under the cover of night, Xie Wanghe tiptoed and lay in the crack of the door.

There's no way. I felt really good about the scolding I just did, but I'm also afraid that I'll be beaten when I get home. After all, I was reborn as someone else's son.

Just as I was hesitating whether to go into the house, a loud roar suddenly came from behind me.

"Xie Wanghe, what are you doing?"

"Ouch!" Xie Wanghe was startled. He turned around and saw that it was the tomboy Xia Fenghua. He knew she did it on purpose by looking at her decent appearance.
"Dahuazi, you are sick!"

"Don't you know that scaring others can kill them?"

"Hehehe~" Xia Fenghua is in the period of changing teeth, and two gaps in her teeth are exposed when she smiles.

"Xie Wang and you..." She hadn't finished her words yet.

Xie Tiancheng's angry roar was heard from the room again.

"Get in here, you little bastard!"

"Uncle Xie is calling you. I'll go home first!" Xia Fenghua smiled and turned to leave.

"Don't leave!"

"Come with me quickly~" Xie Wanghe grabbed her without saying anything.

Then just push the door open and enter.

"Hey...Uncle Xie!" Xia Fenghua was a little scared when she saw Xie Tiancheng with a dark face.

"Feng Hua is here!"

"Aunt Hong~"

Liang Haihong held Xia Fenghua's hand and tidied her messy hair with his hands.

He also reminded his son: "Wanghe, talk to your dad nicely!"

"dad!"

"You little bastard, do you still know that I am your dad?" Xie Tiancheng, who was soaking his feet, got angry when he heard his son call him that.

Xie Wanghe said with a grin, "Anyway, you can't buy a boat now. We don't have enough money. If Grandpa Zhou doesn't support you, other neighbors won't lend you money at all~"

"Just give up on this idea!"

"You little brat!"

Xie Tiancheng stood up and was about to kick. Ever since the old man expressed his disapproval, all the neighbors had spoken with almost the same voice.

That means I totally disagree!
It's all because of this little bastard's nonsense~
When Xie Wanghe saw his cheap father rushing towards him, he naturally dodged quickly and opened the door and ran out. Only a fool would stand there and let him hit him!
"Tiancheng, don't do it!" Liang Haihong stopped her husband. She actually didn't agree to change the boat either.

Why take on so much debt when you can live a good life?
She hadn't been able to sleep well before this, and only recently did she feel relieved when her costs were recovered and she slowly started to make a profit.

……

The wood is done.

Anyway, the Xie family didn't have enough money to buy a new boat, and the neighbors didn't agree. Xie Tiancheng tried everywhere but couldn't get enough money. He was so angry that he was jumping up and down, but he still couldn't buy a new boat.

Xie Wanghe has been hiding these past few days, either going to Shao's house or Zhou's house at night, trying his best to avoid meeting this cheap father.

I know I won’t go home until he goes sailing again.

In the early morning, the sound of ship whistles echoed throughout the Flower Street.

Along both sides of the canal, quaint alleys extend in all directions, dotted with numerous century-old houses.

"Wanghe, wake up!"

"Ok?"

Xie Wanghe opened his eyes drowsily and saw several friends standing beside the bed.

"Dahuazi, Haikuo, Xingchi, why are you three here so early?" They were somewhat puzzled. After all, every one of them seemed to be a poor student, and it was the first time they were so enthusiastic about going to school.

"Hurry, hurry, get up!" Xia Fenghua came up like a tomboy and tried to lift Xie Wanghe's quilt.

"You forgot, there's a ball game at school today!"

"Oh~"

"Yawn!" Xie Wanghe grabbed the quilt tightly, helplessness visible on his face, but he was not really a 12-year-old child.

"Dahuazi, can you please go out first?"

"Uh... there are so many problems!" Xia Fenghua blushed rarely.

After getting dressed, several friends went to school.

As the days passed, Xie Wanghe slowly began to regain his childishness, running around with his friends all day long.

The yard looked different that day.

Because there was suddenly a new person in Grandma Ma’s house, where she lived alone in the backyard.

Looking at the gentle and doll-like girl, Xie Wanghe knew that this should be Ma Siyi, who came from an extremely unhappy family and was abandoned by her biological mother.

"Hello, my name is Xia Fenghua and you can call me Dahuazi!" Xia Fenghua greeted in a familiar manner.

"I am Shao Xingchi!"

"Hello, Zhou Haikuo!"

The three of them greeted them enthusiastically, which made Ma Siyi, who was born in an original family, a little scared. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and subconsciously hid behind his grandmother.

"Okay, you guys, don't scare them!" Xie Wanghe went over and grabbed one each in his hand, pulling Shao Xingchi and Zhou Haikuo apart.

"This is grandma's granddaughter Ma Siyi. I'll ask you guys to take good care of her from now on!"

"Siyi, let's go play!" Although Dahuazi is jumping up and down now, she is a girl with a more delicate mind after all.

As soon as he saw that Ma Siyi was worried, he immediately calmed down and became gentle.

But Siyi was still very scared.

"Grandma Ma, let's take Siyi to get familiar with Flower Street!" Xie Wanghe looked at the old lady with a smile.

The old man was very popular in the compound. He had never had a quarrel with anyone and treated these children like his own grandchildren. He was reluctant to eat any delicious food himself.

"Siyi, go and play!" The old man gently touched his granddaughter's little head.

Ma Siyi, who obviously had mixed-race features, looked at Xie Wanghe curiously, wondering if she was infected by his smile.

After hesitating for a while, he just nodded gently: "Okay!"
