"Xiaomin, this is a gift for you. Your aunt told me you like this brand of building blocks." Xiaowu handed the cardboard box to Xia Minmin.
"Thank you, Brother Wu!"
“Xiao Wu, why are you being so polite? We’ll be family soon. And Xiao Min, you should start calling him Uncle.” Li Chunmei said.
Xia Xiaomei and Xiao Wu's faces immediately turned red; they were both quite shy.
Xia Minmin honestly believes that Xiao Wu is a really good person, a hundred times better than her uncle in her previous life. Apart from the fact that they always insist on bringing her along on their dates, he has no other flaws.
"Isn't this to apologize to Xiaomin?" Xiaowu said with a smile.
"I'm not saying this to criticize you, but you're both single and dating isn't a shameful thing. Every time you go out, you insist on dragging Xiaomin along as a shield."
"I've sacrificed so much for your love," Xia Minmin said sadly, looking at Xia Xiaomei and Xiao Wu.
Several adults couldn't help but laugh.

Everyone had a great time chatting during the meal.
Xia Jianguo asked, "Are you planning to go home with me to pay respects to our ancestors during the Qingming Festival?"

"As long as you two have reached an agreement, that's fine. Little sister, please keep this; it's a small token of our appreciation from your second brother and me."
Li Chunmei took a red cloth bag out of her pocket and handed it to Xia Xiaomei.
"This gold bracelet was custom-made for you by your second sister-in-law after she learned that you were getting married. She originally wanted to buy you home appliances, but then she thought it wasn't very practical, so she changed it to a gold bracelet. In case of any emergency, you can exchange it for money."
Xia Xiaomei took the bracelet and tears streamed down her face. The bracelet was heavy and must have cost a lot of money. If it weren't for her second brother and sister-in-law, she didn't know what would have happened.
Back home, Xia Xiaomei kept telling Xiaowu that she would help her second brother and sister-in-law protect the supermarket, as it had changed their lives.
If Xia Jianguo hadn't taken in Xiao Wu, who was penniless and injured, back then, Xiao Wu would probably be dead by now.
