Xia Hai looked up and saw Xia Wan and Cheng Mu coming together. He was momentarily startled before quickly stepping forward to greet them, “Brother Cheng, what brings you here?”
Cheng Mu was about to speak when Xia Wan interrupted, “Uncle Cheng came to town for some business and just happened to pass by our house. Since mom and dad weren’t home, I invited Uncle Cheng over.”
“Oh, I see,” Xia Hai responded with a smile, “Brother Cheng, feel free to take anything you like from the shop.”
“It would be too embarrassing,” Cheng Mu politely demurred, but his hands were already browsing through the clothes.
The men’s clothing in the Xia family’s shop was relatively limited, but for
Cheng Mu, who lived in the countryside, the styles were quite fashionable.
Watching Cheng Mu carefully selecting clothes, Xia Wan pulled Xia Hai aside.
“Dad, I need to tell you something.” Xia Wan recounted the matter of entrusting Xia Jiang and Song Yan to Cheng Mu’s care, omitting some details that Xia Hai shouldn’t know.
Xia Hai, though somewhat disapproving, nodded and said, “I heard about this from your brother. I thought it was your uncle and aunt’s own wish, but it seems they indeed need someone to take care of them.”
“Your arrangement might be for their own good. ”
Saying this, Xia Hai couldn’t help but sigh.
He and Yan Han weren’t aware when Cheng Mu came to pick up the people.
Later, when they asked Xia Chen, he simply said that the uncle and aunt didn’t want to stay at their house for long and insisted on returning to their rural home.
Xia Wan, worried about their health, had given Cheng Mu some money to take them away for care.
Seeing that Xia Hai did not ask further, Xia Wan felt a sense of relief.
Xia Hai approached Cheng Mu, who was holding several pieces of clothing in each hand and suggested, “Brother Cheng, why don’t you try on the ones you’ve picked?”
Cheng Mu excitedly held the clothes up to himself, “No need, they all fit!”
Xia Hai didn’t say more, waiting as Cheng Mu picked out more than ten pieces of clothing.
Finally satisfied, Cheng Mu looked a bit embarrassed, “You see, I rarely get the chance to buy clothes throughout the year, and I ended up picking a few too many. ”
“How about you help me decide which ones are more suitable?” Cheng Mu pushed the clothes towards Xia Hai, as if waiting for his opinion.
Xia Hai began stuffing the clothes into several large bags he had taken from a shelf nearby, saying to Cheng Mu, “Thank you, Brother Cheng, for taking care of my brother and sister-in-law recently. ”
“Feel free to take these clothes, and come back if you need more! ”
Seeing this, Xia Wan quickly added, “Our family’s circumstances may not be great, but we can still afford these clothes. Uncle Cheng, feel free to come over anytime you need!”
Cheng Mu grinned at Xia Hai filling three or four bags, eagerly taking the bags from Xia Hai’s hands, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of your brother and sister-in-law!”
Xia Wan also handed two bags to Cheng Mu, “These are for my uncle and aunt, please also take them back.”
“It’s better this way so they don’t get upset seeing us, which isn’t good for their health.’
“Wanwan knows how to be considerate!” Cheng Mu’s face creased with a smile as he took the two bags of clothes and bid farewell to Xia Hai before walking out of the shop.
Xia Hai and Xia Wan watched as Cheng Mu quickly rode away on his tricycle.
Yan Han and Xia Chen, the two brothers from the shop across the street, came out and saw Xia Hai and Xia Wan still standing at the doorway. They asked, “I think I just saw Brother Cheng, what did he come for?”
“Greedy, that’s what he is!” Xia Feng couldn’t help but mock.
Xia Chen glared at Xia Feng, then said to Yan Han, “Probably came to complain about how difficult it is to take care of our uncle and aunt.”
Yan Han frowned at this, knowing full well what kind of people Xia Jiang and Song Yan were. It was already good that Cheng Mu hadn’t come to ‘return’ them.
“I packed some clothes for Brother Cheng to take back, to thank him for looking after my brother and sister-in-law,” Xia Hai explained to Yan Han, “After all, we haven’t given him anything, so we should be grateful for what he’s done!”
Xia Chen wanted to say something but stopped upon seeing Xia Wan shaking her head at him.
Xia Chen sulkily swallowed his words..
