Chapter 34: I Don’t Want My Child To Suffer
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What is it?” Yan Han laughed coldly.
“Your mother lost ten yuan today. She didn’t even ask and said that our Wanwan stole it just because our three children ate a bowl of beef noodles at the county.”
“Our Wanwan is rich now. Your salary is in my hands even if she and the others don’t have money. I’ll give the three children cash and let them eat beef noodles. They can afford it.”
“But what about mother? She didn’t even ask. She just said that there are only a few children in the family. No one else would do such a thing other than our three children.”
“In the end, it was Xia Yu who stole the money. Wan Wan brought your mother and happened to catch Xia Yu eating snacks at the convenience store. With the boss’s testimony, it was confirmed that Xia Yu stole the money.”
The more Yan Han spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. She had seen Li Jin’s expression at that time as if he wanted to eat someone up.
Her three children were clearly good, honest, obedient, but why couldn’t they get Li Jin’s favor?
Yan Han even blamed herself for being too stupid. Li Jin didn’t like her, so she didn’t like her children as well.
Seeing Yan Han’s aggrieved expression, Xia Hai felt a little guilty. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t protect you well enough.”
Xia Wan couldn’t bear to see her parents so unhappy. She immediately handed the dried meat snacks to Xia Hai and Yan Han. “Dad, Mom, take it. We don’t eat much usually, but we do the most work. You should eat some meat every day to replenish your energy. As long as you don’t get sick, it’ll save you money!”
Looking at Xia Wan’s adorable appearance, Yan Han and Xia Hai were filled with grat.i.tude. Their daughter was so sensible.
However, they did not take the dried meat. Xia Hai subconsciously handed it to Xia Wan and said, “We understand your kind intentions, but you’re still growing and need to eat more nutritious food. You guys can eat this. It’s the same for mom and dad.”
Xia Hai and Yan Han’s thoughts were simple. Whenever there was something good, they would always want to share it with their children. They were willing to suffer for their children as long as they lived well.
Xia Wan naturally knew what the two were thinking. She handed the items to them and said, “Take it. If you don’t, I’ll give it to Xia Yu. When he finds out I have money to buy food, he’ll kick up a fuss. Dad, mom, you don’t want to cause me trouble, right?”
After being threatened by Xia Wan, the two could tell that they had to take the dried meat, so they took it immediately.
Xia Wan smiled and said, “Don’t worry about it. I’ll find a lot of herbs in the future and sell them for lots of money. I can also help the villagers earn. Once this thing is gone, I’ll buy it for you. Don’t save it.”
Yan Han and Xia Hai agreed. In reality, they didn’t dare to be so wasteful.
Xia Wan also knew that it was impossible to change their living habits immediately, so she said nothing more.
Xia Feng was smart. He immediately stared at Yan Han and Xia Hai and said, “Dad, Mom, hurry up and eat it. Eat it in front of us. Otherwise, who’ll know if you’d really eait it?”
Xia Wan and Xia Chen both looked at him.
Xia Hai and Yan Han were touched, and they put the beef jerky into their mouths.
The meat was dry, but it wasn’t old. It was fragrant, and it even had a little spiciness. Even if it had been swallowed, the fragrance of the beef jerky lingered in the mouth, causing one to reminisce on the good old days.
Yan Han had never eaten such high-cla.s.s food ever since she had married into the Xia family, and her eyes immediately turned red.
She had been tolerating the Xias ever since she married Xia Hai, and now, her child was the one who bought her the precious food she was having.
At this time, Yan Han’s mood was particularly complicated.
She regretted not being able to give the three children a better life, hated her own weakness, and was pleased with the three children’s sense and filial piety.
After Yan Han had eaten it, she stuffed another piece into Xia Hai’s mouth.
Subconsciously, Xia hai took the piece of beef jerky. As soon as he put it in his mouth, the aroma stunned him for a long time.
He realized that Yan Han was smiling brightly, and so did the three children. Such days were really good, he thought to himself, and his eyes were filled with joy.
As Xia Hai looked at the remaining beef jerky, he showed some hesitation in his eyes.
