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. It’s not easy for him to make a living as a child." Yang Dachuan said.
"Dad, let’s just forget it, he won’t 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 wouldn’t accept it, he wouldn’t. Especially when she had purposely sent the money away, and he still refused it, it meant that he really didn’t want it. If she insisted on giving it, it would make things awkward for the other party.
"How can we do that? We can’t take advantage of a child, and this isn’t 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 didn’t say it, and instead said, "Let’s 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 Chuxia’s concern was not unreasonable. With Ms. Hua Junior’s character, she would definitely not let it go. The days ahead were still long, why didn’t her grand-uncle just drive everyone out in one fell swoop?
"What you said makes sense. Let’s 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. It’s really pitiful. In a few days, we’ll invite him to our house for dinner. We won’t give him the silver now, but we can at least invite him for a meal to thank him for helping us sell the fish."
"That’s fine. When I see him next time, I’ll talk to him." Yang Chuxia had no objection to inviting Ye Zi’an to dinner. It was just a meal after all. Besides, Ye Zi’an 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, didn’t you keep the money for our family before? It’s better for you to keep it. You’re 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 family’s money.
Who knew that her father would just nod vigorously, "I agree, I agree, and when I get my wage tomorrow, I’ll 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, I’ll keep it then. Dad and Mom have such soft hearts and aren’t 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, it’s more appropriate for me to keep it."
