The steamed buns they usually had in the morning were as rough as they were hard, and it would hurt their throats. Now, though, smooth noodles were in her stomach, accompanied by warm, spicy soup. It was so delicious that Xia Wan almost bit her tongue.

After finis.h.i.+ng the noodles, she even finished the soup.

When she looked at the two brothers, she found that they had only eaten the noodles, but left the meat alone.

“Why didn’t you eat the meat?” Xia Wan looked at them in confusion.

Beef noodles, of course, were meant to be eaten with beef. They usually didn’t even get to eat meat. It couldn’t be that they disliked the meat in the noodles, right?

“Mom and dad work hard every day,” Xia Chen explained. “We want to save the meat for them.”

Xia Feng nodded in agreement.

Xia Wan’s heart ached when she heard this. She thought of her parents, who worked hard every day, and her eyes turned red.

Li Jin only bought meat during festivals every year. He didn’t buy much each time, and most of it went to his first and second uncle’s families. Xia Hai was an honest man, so his family didn’t like to s.n.a.t.c.h away his share. The meat that was given to his family, however, would always be taken away by the other two families.

Every year, the number of times the family could eat meat could be counted on one hand.

Now that they had the chance to eat a big bowl of meat, Xia Chen and Xia Feng were not used to it.

Xia Wan understood why, but the more she understood, the more her heart ached.

She took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and said to the two, “You guys should finish this. If we bring it back, it’ll go bad before mom and dad can eat it.

“Besides, this meat is some strong-smelling stuff. You know how voracious Xia Yu is. If he catches a whiff, our parents can forget about having a bite.”

“Don’t worry, I’m rich now. I’ll definitely let mom and dad have meat to eat.”

Hearing Xia Wan’s words, Xia Chen and Xia Feng finally finished the meat in their bowls.

After eating, Xia Chen reminded her, “Wanwan, you found this ginseng, so its proceeds are naturally all yours. However, don’t be spendthrift just because you have a bit of money. There will be many places where you might need it, which is why you should save it.

Xia Wan knew that her brother advised her out of kindness, so she nodded. “Brother, don’t worry. I have a plan. I won’t waste the money.”

Xia Wan then looked at Xia Feng and stared into his eyes. “Xia Feng, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have ignored you for the sake of my reputation and let those people laugh at you. You did it for my sake, but I still treated you like that. I was wrong. Will you forgive me?”

“I promise that I will never be vain again. I will live my life in peace. You will always be my cutest and smartest little brother!”

Xia Feng didn’t expect Xia Wan to tell him this. He was both touched and embarra.s.sed.

When he first arrived at the noodle restaurant, Xia Feng felt awkward and uncomfortable.

The last time his sister brought her cla.s.smates to the restaurant, he happened to deliver food to them and was looked down upon by his sister’s cla.s.smates.

They were also having a meal now, but the waiter from before also looked down on the three of them.

However, when his sister took out the three yuan just now, he instantly changed his att.i.tude.

Now, his sister was apologizing to him.

Xia Feng’s eyes reddened at the thought.

Xia Wan reached out and rubbed Xia Feng’s head, her voice exceptionally gentle. “My good little brother, I will definitely protect you in the future. I will teach a hard lesson to whoever dares to laugh at you and let them know that my little brother is the best brother in the world.”

Xia Feng sniffled and slapped Xia Wan’s hand away. “Who needs your protection? I’m strong enough.”

Although he said that, his tone was much more contrived than before.

Xia Wan smiled.

She knew that her brother must be feeling shy.

alright, let’s go home quickly after you’re done eating. Mom and dad will be worried if we’re late. Xia Feng said as he rose to his feet.

Xia Chen smiled. He was happy to see Xia Wan and Xia Feng making up with each other.

They were all bounded by blood, after all, and were of the same parents.

Previously, when the two of them had a conflict, he was worried, but he couldn’t change anything.

Now, Xia Feng seemed to have forgiven Wanwan.

After the three left, Xia Ru and her family ate at a noodle stall not far away. Xia Ru’s sharp eyes spotted the three siblings and couldn’t help but them. After confirming that they were the siblings, she stood up in shock.

Meanwhile, Song Yan was eating soup noodles with an egg in them. In her eyes, it was already considered a fine meal. She almost buried her whole face in the bowl and slurped the noodles in big mouthfuls.

Xia Jiang looked better when she ate than Song Yan, but she was too focused on eating her noodles to care about anything else.
