Then he said, "Your brother came to see you before he left, and he said he would write to you when he got there. If you miss him, Xiaoai, how about asking your dad to take you to see him around the New Year?"
"Is it really possible?"
"certainly."
He Xiaoai's eyes were like stars in the night sky, shining brightly. "Aunt, I have a lot to say to my brother. I've even thought about what clothes to wear when I send him off. Oh...it's okay. I'll talk to him slowly when I get to see him."

He Xiasheng was standing next to them in a white coat, discussing something with the nurse.
She was forcibly recalled by her parents two days ago. Zhao Meiya warned her that if she didn't come back this time, she would not have to use the surname Xia anymore.
