“Mom, I just saw Xia Wan and her siblings. They actually came out of a beef restaurant! Where on earth did they get the money to eat beef noodles?”
As Xia Ru spoke to Song Yan, she couldn’t help but shake Song Yan’s arm.
Song Yan stuck her face out of the bowl and immediately denied it. “Impossible. How can the three have any money to eat beef noodles? Are you seeing things?”
Seeing that Song Yan did not believe her, Xia Ru became a little anxious. “Mom, I grew up with them. How could I be wrong? I just saw them. It really was the three of them, wearing the same clothes as yesterday.”
Song Yan knew that her daughter had good eyes, and now that she said it so confidently, she was sure that it must be true.
It made Song Yan furious.
“Xia Hai’s family sure knows how to spend. They even said that they wanted to treat Xia Wan’s illness with their salary. Yesterday, Yan Han used the money to buy eggs, and today, the three went to eat beef noodles. They’re not using their salary to treat Xia Wan’s illness; they’re clearly looking for an excuse not to pay their share so that they can keep it for themselves to spend!
Xia Ru had been working in the county for the past few days, so she didn’t know what had happened yesterday. The family had gone out for noodles today, so Song Yan and the others didn’t have time to tell her.
“Mother, what’s going on?” Xia Ru asked.
Song Yan told Xia Ru about the argument between Xia Yu and Xia Wan, as well as the reason why Xia Hai did not hand in his salary.
Xia Ru also felt angry after hearing this and couldn’t help but say, “Mom, third uncle’s family is so smart now. They’ve even learned a new excuse not to part with their salary. Hence, the three children in their family can now afford beef noodles. If we don’t pay our salary, we can also afford beef noodles ourselves!”
Then, she looked at Song Yan’s face with some disdain, “One bowl of beef noodles is with three bowls of our noodles!”
Hearing Xia Ru’s words, Song Yan got even angrier. She glared at Xia Jiang and said, “It’s all your fault. Why did you take the initiative to pay your share yesterday? If you paid later, Xia Hai would have started it. If our family didn’t pay, mother wouldn’t have been able to say anything.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
“That’s not right. Xia Wan was coughing her lungs out yesterday, and she’s fine now. Xia Ru, did you get a good look? How was Xia Wan’s health? Are you coughing?”
“Of course, I’m not. I look very healthy,” Xia Ru said unwillingly with eyes filled with jealousy. 𝑓r𝙚ew𝚎𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝗲𝘭. c𝘰m
In her opinion, Xia Wan had pretended to be sick to deceive Li Jin and keep her family’s salary.
On the other side, Xia Wan and the other two were walking slowly. With the money in her pocket, she wanted to buy some nutritious food for her parents, so she went to the cheaper market and bought some dried beef and pork. The smell of the meat was relatively mild, so Xia Yu wouldn’t find out even if she took it home.
Nonetheless, Xia Wan couldn’t help but worry.
It was clearly their own money, and they were using it to buy meat. Now, they were like thieves, sneakily trying to prevent Xia Yu from eating it.
These were really tough days.
She couldn’t help but complain. I really want to part with the family now. I can’t live like this.
Xia Chen was stunned, and his expression became serious. “Wanwan, do you really want to move out?”
When Xia Wan told him yesterday, he thought she was just angry.
Looking at Xia Wan’s expression, she was obviously serious.
Xia Wan nodded. “Of course. Now that we’re all living together, we can’t even eat anything good. We have to give it to eldest uncle and second uncle’s family, and grandma won’t let us eat. If we move out, we can make our own money. How wonderful would that be?”
She blinked and looked at Xia Chen and Xia Feng curiously. “Don’t you want to?”
Xia Chen was a little hesitant.
Of course, it was good to move out, but no one in the village had ever moved out before. If their family became the first, the villagers would definitely start rumors that something must’ve happened to their family.
These were certainly not the best of times.
Xia Feng understood Xia Chen’s concern, so he just pursed his lips and didn’t say anything.
Xia Wan could see the wavering in the brothers’ eyes. Obviously, they also wanted to split the family.
She had felt the need to tell them so that they could be prepared to move out.
