"Ah? Why do you suddenly want to go shopping? It's almost time for dinner." Xu Mengyao asked in confusion.
Xiaomei explained, "My aunt, my younger aunt, and my aunt all gave me gifts. I have to buy some gifts in return before they go back this afternoon."
"There's no need to return the gift. My parents will prepare gifts for Erya and Yinliang when they get admitted to university." Xu Mengyao advised.
But Xiaomei was firm in her attitude. "No, if I don't buy it today, I will keep thinking about it."
Seeing this, Xu Mengyao had no choice but to accompany her out.
Wenxia saw them leaving and followed them out. Arriving at the department store, Xiaomei and Xu Mengyao looked around but didn't know what to buy.
Wenxia suddenly said casually, "This toy is really beautiful. I'm going to bring Erya and the others over to see it again this afternoon."
"Wenxia, do you like this?" Xiaomei asked.
"Of course I like it, but the pocket money my second sister approved for me this month has been used up." After saying this, he looked at Xu Mengyao with resentment.
"Okay, then buy this, buy three portions, one for you and one for Erya." Xiaomei said decisively.
"Wow! Sister Xiaomei, you are so nice!" Wenxia jumped up excitedly.
After returning to the Huang family, Xiaomei gave the gifts to Erya and Yinliang. The two children were indeed overjoyed, with happy smiles on their faces.
Grandma Huang took Xiaomei's hand and sat down, saying to everyone, "This child is the most sensible one in our family."
In the evening, when Xu Mengyao and Xiaomei were packing their luggage, Huang's mother came over with a bag.
"Xiaomei, the two sisters don't want me to worry about them, so I won't bother with them. Here are some new clothes that Auntie bought for you. They've been washed, so you can wear them directly when you get back."
At this moment, Xiaomei's tears, which she had been suppressing for a whole day, finally burst out.
"Auntie, you're so kind to me, I really don't know how to repay you."
Her voice was choked with sobs, and tears fell from her eyes and hit the ground.
Huang's mother came forward and hugged the crying child, gently soothing her back.
"You silly child, don't think so much. You are a member of our family. We treat our children well and we don't ask for anything in return."
