Chapter 158 Thank You Gift

After interrogation by the government, it turned out that the gang was actually kidnappers who were roaming around and committing crimes.

Yu Siyang assisted the government in catching kidnappers and made great contributions. The government also gave him a subsidy of three taels of silver.

These were all trivial matters. After Yu Sanbao found out that Xingxing was almost kidnapped, he was shocked and scolded Yu Siyang, telling him that next time he took Xingxing out, he must not leave Xingxing's side.

Yu Siyang was scolded by his third brother, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he nodded like a fool and reflected deeply on himself.

Xing Xing, on the other hand, hurried to speak for Yu Siyang and shook Yu Sanbao's sleeve: "... Third Uncle, don't be angry. Fourth Uncle didn't go far either. Don't blame Fourth Uncle!"

Yu Sanbao was reluctant to be vicious to Xingxing, so he touched Xingxing's little head and said nothing in front of Xingxing.

Xingxing is already sensible enough, sometimes even to the point of making him feel distressed. He hopes Xingxing can be more unrestrained.

But when he turned around and carried Xingxing on his back, Yu Sanbao took Yu Siyang out again and gave him a lecture.

The next day, Xingxing was lying on her brothers' desk copying the big characters that her brothers had taught her the day before. The girl named Awu came yesterday.

This time she did not come alone; she was followed by an old woman in velvet blue clothes.

The old woman had her hair combed neatly, was smiling, and was holding a brocade box in her arms. She said her surname was Xia.

Mrs. Xia did not neglect Yu Sanbao and Yu Siyang just because they were businessmen. Instead, she enthusiastically expressed her gratitude to Yu Siyang for saving their young lady yesterday.

He presented the brocade box very attentively, saying it was a thank you gift.

Yu Sanbao was quite surprised.

He knew that his brother had saved a girl yesterday, but he didn't expect that the girl he saved had a prominent family background.

Yu Siyang felt a little embarrassed, and looked at the old woman with clear eyes, sincerely refusing: "No need, I just wanted to save my niece, and your lady just did it for the sake of convenience."

The girl Ah Wu sighed, "Why do you still say that? I told you yesterday that no matter how convenient it is for you, I still want to thank you for saving me. Please accept it."

Yu Siyang stuttered, but still said: "...But, but I am telling the truth."

After a pause, he was a little entangled again: "My mother once said that if a favor is not repaid, you can't blame me in your heart? ... Then accept it."

Ah Wu looked happier now: "That's right."

Mrs. Xia felt a slight movement in her heart as she listened to the conversation between her young lady and Yu Siyang.

This boy looked to be about 17 or 18 years old, but his eyes were clear and bright, and he spoke in this way. How come he looked so similar to her young lady...

Her young lady had a fever when she was a child. Although it didn't seem to be a big deal at the time, as she grew older, she became too naive.

The master of the mansion invited a doctor to come and found the clue.

Of course, this was quite different from an ordinary burnt brain. Her young lady was not stupid, but just too naive. Her mind was as clean and pure as crystal. In addition, her young lady's parents had passed away a few years ago, and she was the only orphan left in their family. Everyone in the mansion felt very sorry for her.

The young lady returned to her hometown with her retired grandfather, and it has not been a few days yet when this incident happened. Yesterday, Moliu, who went out with her young lady, was almost beaten half to death!

This is all thanks to a kind-hearted person who rescued her. Otherwise, if this innocent young lady had fallen into the hands of human traffickers, who knows what kind of torture she would have suffered!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xia became more enthusiastic towards Yu Siyang. She bowed and presented the brocade box in her arms to him with both hands.

Yu Siyang gave the brocade box to Shuanghe and asked her to take it to the backyard.

He said to Ah Wu in a stammering voice, "...Why didn't I see your maidservant today? You better be careful and don't let someone kidnap you again."

Speaking of the maid, Ah Wu was obviously a little sad: "Moliu was punished... I wanted to go out and buy something for her today."

She looked at the dazzling array of goods displayed in Yu's store with curiosity in her eyes.

Ah Wu was born and raised in the capital, and was used to seeing silks, satins, jade and jewelry. It was the first time for her to see such unique gadgets as those in Yu's shop, and she felt that everything she saw was novel.

Ah Wu became happy again and pointed at several items, asking Yu Siyang to take them down from the shelf for her.

Ah Wu began to divide the fruits: "This one is for Moliu, and this one is for Grandfather..."

Mrs. Xia looked at Awu's back with loving eyes.

"Oh, I almost forgot, where is your little niece?" Ah Wu remembered something, turned his head and looked around the Yu family store, and chose to ask Yu Siyang.

Yu Siyang thought for a moment and said, "Xingxing is in the backyard. Do you want to see her? She was still thinking about you before she went to sleep last night, and she was afraid that you would get scared."

Ah Wu was very happy to hear this.

She carefully took out a pair of things wrapped in a handkerchief from her arms.

"This is a pair of pearl earrings I wore when I was a child. I think she looks like a snowball and it will look great on her," Ah Wu vowed.

Mrs. Xia laughed.

Yu Siyang asked Shuanghe to call Xingxing over.

Xing Xing wrapped in a shawl came running over: "Third Uncle! Fourth Uncle!"

When she saw Ah Wu, she called out in surprise, "Sister Ah Wu!"

Ah Wu was also very happy: "You..."

She couldn't help but look at Yu Siyang and whispered, "What's your niece's name?"

Perhaps because he was saved by Yu Siyang in that situation, Ah Wu obviously had some trust in Yu Siyang.

"Call her Xingxing." Yu Siyang said.

Xing Xing nodded happily: "Yes, my name is Xing Xing!"

The little girl is lively and cute, with a babyish voice and a sweet tone that makes people happy just by listening to it.

Ah Wu was even happier and quickly handed over the pearl earrings in the handkerchief: "This is for you! I like you!"

Xing Xing was stunned for a moment.

Ah Wu, however, directly stuffed the pearl earrings and the handkerchief into Xing Xing's hands.

She smiled and said, "Granny Xia prepared a lot of thank-you gifts, but this one was picked for you by me personally!"

Mrs. Xia also said, "Yes, Miss Xingxing, please accept it. My lady specially found this earring today, wrapped it up and put it in her pocket. She has been carrying it all the way."

Seeing this, Xing Xing said happily: "Thank you, Sister Wu! It's so beautiful, Xing Xing loves it so much!"

Seeing how much Xing Xing liked the things she picked out herself, Ah Wu felt even happier.

She bought a few small things from the Yu family's store. When she was leaving, Mrs. Xia wanted to pay, but Yu Sanbao refused and said with a smile, "The young lady gave my niece beautiful earrings. These small things should be considered as gifts from our Yu family to the young lady."

Yu Sanbao only needed to glance at it to see how valuable the earrings were. If he really wanted to return the favor, he would probably have to sell some of their property.

But he also saw that Mrs. Xia who came with the young girl did not stop the young lady from giving the gift, and even urged Xingxing to accept it. It can be seen that this was really nothing in her eyes.

However, even if it is nothing, the gift still needs to be returned - this is also the attitude of their Yu family.

Ah Wu pointed at the exquisite little things and asked happily, "Are these gifts for me? I'm so happy."

Seeing this, Xing Xing brought over a few more beautiful boxes and said, "Sister Wu, can Xing Xing help you pack them?"

Two heads, one big and one small, came together and put those little gadgets into the jewel box.

When she was leaving, Ah Wu held a bunch of boxes in her arms. Mrs. Xia wanted to help her share some of the burden, but Ah Wu was not happy.

Before getting on the carriage, Ah Wu turned around and said to Xing Xing, "I like you! I'll come and play with you next time!"

Xing Xing nodded repeatedly and waved, "Goodbye, Sister Wu!"

Xingxing was so happy when such a beautiful sister told her that she liked her!
