“Even if Mom and Dad were still alive, they wouldn’t let Jianguo give us the money. We’ve already received enough. You should be content. What my little sister said is also very true. It’s better to rely on yourself than on others.”

“We are all adults with hands and feet. Jianguo and the others have also gotten to where they are today step by step on their own. After we are settled, we will find a shop and open a store.”

The headlights of a bus in the distance were flashing.

Xia Jianguo stood up and picked up his luggage. "The bus is here. Hold Xiaobao's hand. We should go."

It was almost ten o'clock when we arrived at the house rented by Chen Chunhua's younger brother and sister.

Chen Chunhua's younger brother took the luggage from Xia Jianshe's hands. "Fifth Sister, why are you only arriving now?"

"Yes, Fifth Sister, I thought Fifth Brother-in-law had forgotten the way. I was just about to go to the bus stop with the youngest brother to pick you up."

Looking at the cramped apartment her younger siblings rented, Chen Chunhua thought to herself that this was the real life of a working-class person.

Chen Chunhua asked, "Where is Yan'er?"

"You guys will fall asleep while you're waiting!"

With guidance from Chen Chunhua's younger siblings, Xia Jianshe put his luggage away. Xiao Bao leaned back in his chair, his eyes half-closed, as if he was about to fall asleep.

"Brother-in-law, let me take you and Xiaobao to take a bath! Look how sleepy Xiaobao is."

Xia Jianshe took out a change of clothes from his suitcase, picked up Xiaobao, and went to take a bath with Chen Chunhua's younger brother.

After Xia Jianshe walked away, Chen Chunhua's younger sister could no longer contain herself. "Fifth sister, what's wrong between you and your husband? I have a feeling that you two are acting strangely."

Chen Chunhua recounted the general course of events.

"Fifth Sister, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you made a terrible move. I've never seen anyone so eager to offend someone."

Chen Chunhua became increasingly frustrated, but unfortunately, the deed was already done.
