Yang Chuxia shrugged helplessly.
Yang Qingrui said, "Sis, Brother An also sent some pastries." Yang Qingrui pointed to the table, and Yang Chuxia just remembered that Brother An had indeed put a package on the table earlier.
"This kid, really!" Ms. Wang shook her head, not knowing what to say.
"Xiaxia, give him back the money tomorrow. Itâs not easy for him to make a living as a child." Yang Dachuan said.
"Dad, letâs just forget it, he wonât take it." Yang Chuxia shook her head. Although the boy had stopped going to school, he still had the pride of a scholar. Since he said he wouldnât accept it, he wouldnât. Especially when she had purposely sent the money away, and he still refused it, it meant that he really didnât want it. If she insisted on giving it, it would make things awkward for the other party.
"How can we do that? We canât take advantage of a child, and this isnât a small amount." Yang Dachuan was an honest and upright person, absolutely unwilling to take advantage of others.
Ms. Wang also said, "Yeah, Xiaxia, that child is quite pitiful all by himself."
Yang Chuxia was speechless. She actually wanted to say that they were pitiful as well.
However, she didnât say it, and instead said, "Letâs just keep it for now. If he needs money later, we can help him out. Besides, I think his house is quite unsafe. That brother duo could steal in broad daylight. If we give him this silver, whether he can keep it safe is another issue."
Yang Chuxiaâs concern was not unreasonable. With Ms. Hua Juniorâs character, she would definitely not let it go. The days ahead were still long, why didnât her grand-uncle just drive everyone out in one fell swoop?
"What you said makes sense. Letâs just help the child more in the future." Ms. Wang nodded her head and said, "That child is all alone and has such a stepmother. Itâs really pitiful. In a few days, weâll invite him to our house for dinner. We wonât give him the silver now, but we can at least invite him for a meal to thank him for helping us sell the fish."
"Thatâs fine. When I see him next time, Iâll talk to him." Yang Chuxia had no objection to inviting Ye Ziâan to dinner. It was just a meal after all. Besides, Ye Ziâan was working at a restaurant now, so perhaps they would need his help in the future. It was better to build a good relationship now than to look for him when they needed help.
"All right, let your father buy some vegetables later," said Ms. Wang with a smile.
Yang Dachuan also nodded repeatedly.
Ms. Wang then said, "Daughter, put away the money quickly so we can eat."
"Huh?" Yang Chuxia was taken aback, "Mom, I should keep the money?"
Ms. Wang smiled and nodded her head, "Yes, didnât you keep the money for our family before? Itâs better for you to keep it. Youâre better at hiding things than your mother."
"Dad, do you also agree that I should keep it?" Yang Chuxia asked Yang Dachuan again. She had originally thought her father might have some objections, but in the end, he was the head of the household, and usually, it was the head of the household or his wife who kept the familyâs money.
Who knew that her father would just nod vigorously, "I agree, I agree, and when I get my wage tomorrow, Iâll give it to you to keep as well."
Yang Chuxia looked around at her family and saw that everyone had no objections, so she nodded and put the silver away.
"Well, Iâll keep it then. Dad and Mom have such soft hearts and arenât suitable for keeping silver. If someone from the Yang family comes crying that their father or grandmother is sick, and asks our father for silver to treat the illness, he would definitely be unable to refuse. So, itâs more appropriate for me to keep it."
