Little Xie Min chuckled, "I miss Mother, too. Oh, Mother, Madam Tang asked me to bring you some jujube paste pastry. She said she saw you liked it when you went to Uncle Xuanlang's house last time, so she bought it specially for you. Qingshu, bring it here."
The young attendant Qingshu handed the box in his hand to Xia.
Xia's face turned pale.
Shen Heng's face was gloomy. What did Madam Yu mean by this? Was she trying to show goodwill or intimidate others?
If this kind of small action happens a few times, even if the eldest brother of the Xie family is willing to come back in the future, how can the eldest sister-in-law not feel uncomfortable?
"Thank Madam Tang on my behalf. Min'er, is Madam Tang treating you well?" Mrs. Xia didn't want to show her sadness in front of her son, so she asked with a forced smile.
"Sure. Madam Tang will invite me to have some snacks with her, and let me play with Roujieer. And Lord Tang has even held me several times." Little Xie Min said happily. For some reason, he really liked being held by Lord Tang. Seeing his mother's sad face, he thought she was worried about him, so he said to Qingshu and the other attendants, "You all go wait outside."
"yes."
Seeing that everyone had gone far away, little Xie Min whispered, "Mom, Aunt, don't worry. I was deceived by my best friend before. From now on, no matter who I like, I will only trust Mom, Aunt, and Uncle, and will be careful with others." I hope Mom won't worry if he says this.
Chen Heng looked at the maturity on Min'er's tender little face. A seven-year-old child can still look cute even if he looks old-fashioned, but his eyes reveal the vicissitudes of life.
Xia wanted to say something, but was afraid that she would choke up if she spoke, so she could only touch her son's head.
"People who studied with me said that I was the grandson of a eunuch and looked down on me. So it was strange that Lord Tang and Madam Tang were so nice to me. My uncle told me that we must never make the same mistakes again. My uncle also told me about the mistakes he and my mother had made, and I will learn from them." Little Xie Min's childish voice was extremely firm.
"Min'er, you are still young. Don't think about these things." Xia felt uncomfortable listening to her son's words.
"Mother, I'm not a child anymore." Xiao Min'er wiped away her tears and said, "Don't worry about me. I can take good care of myself. Grandpa is also very good to me."
Shen Heng took a deep breath. She couldn't bear to hear the child say this.
At this time, Aunt Feng came back with a basket of vegetables: "Min'er is back. I haven't seen you for more than a month. I missed you so much."
"Mammy, I miss you too." Little Xie Min ran over and gave Mammy Feng a big hug.
"Mammy knew that Tianmin'er would be coming, so she bought your favorite dishes. Mammy will cook for you at noon, okay?"
"good."
With Min'er, there is always laughter in the house.
During lunch, everyone was busy putting food into Min'er's bowl.
Although Xia was distressed, her son was so well-behaved and understanding that the pain was nothing.
When the family saw Min'er off in the afternoon, they were reluctant to leave. Only after the carriage disappeared into the alley did the three of them return to the house.
Just as Shen Heng was about to close the door, a breathless man came to the door and looked at her with great joy: "Boss."
The young man in front of me looked dusty and his face was dirty as if he hadn't washed it for several days. Because he was tall, he looked quite scary when he stood at the door. There was joy and kindness in his eyes.
"Liugang?" It took Shen Heng a while to recognize him.
Xia came over and recognized Liu Gang: "You came so soon?" She knew that her sister-in-law had written to ask Liu Gang to come and be the manager. At that time, she had said that she was afraid that Liu Gang would not agree to leave his hometown with his family. Later, she learned that all of Liu Gang's relatives were killed in the snow disaster.
"Madam Xia." Liu Gang was so happy to see someone he knew: "Yes, I packed my things and came here that day after receiving the letter from my boss."
