Chapter 326: This Must Be Dealt With Seriously
Shirley knew what Shen Meng meant and nodded to her. She started to pack the clothes, shoes, and socks for both children and herself. The hospital had a temporary resting room; she would just need to make do and take care of Dezi there. Looking around the house, there were things that shouldn’t be left for too long.
"Daya, take these bits of meat and pig’s feet to your aunts and your uncle’s mother. I’ll pack some more things, and then we’ll go see your brother."
"Okay, Mom," Daya hesitated for a moment before adding, "Mom, can’t we take Brother with us to the county? Uncle Qian is a good man. Just now at the door, he even said he wanted to raise Brother!"
"We can’t talk like that, Daya. Your Uncle Qian and Granny Qian are good people, and they treat you all with so much heart and soul, I’m grateful enough. Your brother is the grandson of the Xu Family. No matter how that brute of a father treats him, he is their flesh and blood. If I really took your brother away, it’s likely none of us would end up with good days ahead. It would also bring trouble to your Uncle Qian and Granny Qian. Don’t worry, the village chief, the Secretary, and your Grandma Guo will all help take care of your brother. It’ll be okay!"
"Ah!"
Daya, biting her lip and with slightly reddened eyes, went out carrying a cloth bag. She used to hate Dezi when he bullied her, but so much time had passed, and he realized his faults. Besides, he was young, led astray by the grandparents, and now he had become sensible. They were blood siblings; she couldn’t truly disown him.
Thinking that she might never see him again, she felt very upset.
The mother packed a bundle of things and borrowed a bicycle to go to the county.
