When Xu Di arrived, this was the atmosphere he found. After bowing to Wu Muyue, Xu Di said, "Uncle, my wife and I went to the street and bought some things. Please help us take them to Ganzhou."

Xu Bai said, "Brother, I'll go too. Just let me take you. We'll have to trouble Uncle."

Xu Di said, "If you are capable of handling this important task, then I won't trouble my uncle."

Xu Di has always adopted a harsh approach to educating his younger brother, delivering a heavy blow to Xu Bai's tender heart at any time.

Xu Bai clutched his chest and said, "I'm finally breaking up with you. I'm finally free from your clutches."

Xu Di said, "Don't worry, even if we are thousands of miles apart, I will always find a way to keep your tail wagging."

Xu Bai turned his head away angrily; he didn't want to talk to his heartless brother right now.

Looking at the way the two brothers interacted, Wu Muyue understood why Xu Bai was so clever and mischievous at such a young age. With such a cunning and quick-witted older brother, he really had no chance of survival.

Xu Di glanced at his sulking younger brother and said to Wu Muyue with a smile, "Uncle, please move to the front yard. I'll give you the things."

Wu Muyue and Xu Di walked towards the front yard. Looking at Xu Di walking ahead of him, Wu Muyue said, "Brother Di, Brother Bai is a very smart child. I have always felt that children should be praised sometimes."

Xu Di was surprised that Wu Muyue advocated encouragement, and said with a smile, "Uncle, it's precisely because Bai Ge'er is so smart that we need to wake him up from time to time. This child is a bit complacent."

Wu Muyue nodded and said, "Children are sometimes complacent because they believe they can do this well, and because they are confident. Otherwise, they would not have the confidence to be complacent."

Xu Di was very happy that Xu Bai had met a famous teacher. He bowed respectfully to Wu Muyue and said, "Uncle, I will entrust Bai'er to you in the future."

Wu Muyue said, "We're family, no need to be so polite. I was drawn to Bai Ge'er's intelligence and drive. This little guy is quite impressive."

Xu Di said with a smile, "He's very petty, you should be careful of him."

Wu Muyue smiled and nodded, saying, "Just now, because of the wedding procession from my cousins, Brother Bai was a little unhappy. I think Brother Bai always manages to vent his bad mood well, which is quite good."

Upon hearing this, Xu Di wrote it down. After showing Wu Muyue everything he and Li Yuexi had bought, he packed it into a box. Wu Muyue's two attendants put the box away, and only then did Xu Di return to his study from the front yard.

It was already break time between classes, and Xu Di quickly found out what had happened in Xu Bai's bedroom after lunch in just a few words.

Considering Xu Bai's money-loving nature, Xu Di felt that his cousins' actions this time had probably really hurt Xu Bai's feelings.

To be honest, the painting and inkstone that Chen Yu-han and Chen Yu-chiao gave me should be quite valuable, but they were parting gifts. Apart from taking good care of them, there's really nothing else to do with them. It would be better to give Xu Bai some money instead.

Xu Bai has had a stipend since birth, but Chen Zhaoci usually has Granny Lu help Xu Bai keep it. This time when they came to Tai'an, Chen Zhaoci did give Xu Bai some money, but felt that Xu Bai was too young to have much use for the money, so she gave it directly to Li Yuexi to keep for him. Xu Bai can ask his sister-in-law for it whenever he needs to spend it.

Xu Bai was actually quite embarrassed to ask Li Yuexi for money. He felt that as a grown man, how could he ask a woman for money? Li Yuexi did want to give him some, but Xu Bai pretended to be generous and said he wanted to save it for his future nephews and nieces. He didn't accept it. As for himself, he was a foodie, and since coming to Tai'an, he had really spent his limited time looking for good food on the street.

Because Tai'an is located at the foot of Mount Tai, people flock to climb the mountain. The streets at the foot of the mountain are filled with delicacies from all over the country. Xu Bai finally ran out of money. As far as Xu Di knew, Xu Bai had also borrowed money from Chen Yuyuan. Now that he saw Chen Yuhan and Chen Yuqiao giving him things, and Chen Yukang even gave him IOUs, all three of them gave Chen Yuyuan banknotes or silver. It's no wonder they were envious.

During dinner that evening, Xu Di said to Li Yuexi, "Find me two fifty-tael silver notes and a few taels of loose silver."

Li Yuexi asked curiously, "What do you need this for?"

Xu Di said, "I'll give it to Brother Bai so he can take it with him for his journey."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuexi quickly put down her work, found two fifty-tael silver notes, put them in a purse, and then found her wooden box for storing loose silver. She estimated that there were more than thirty taels of loose silver inside, found a purse, and divided it into two portions.

Li Yuexi asked Xu Di, "These two packets of loose silver, one for Brother Bai and one for Yuyuan. Do we still need to give Yuyuan silver notes?"

Xu Di said, "No need. His two older brothers have already given him quite a lot. I'll just give him this bag of loose silver. It's better for a child not to carry too much money on him."
