“Dad!”
Xia Nuannuan called him and bit her lip. “Dad, Mom, why did you do a silly thing like that?”
When Dad Xia and Mom Xia saw her in such a state, they took a glance in the direction of her bedroom. Being sure that Shen Zihao was still asleep, they grabbed her hand and pulled her into their bedroom.
Xia Nuannuan looked at the both of them.
Dad and Mom were only in their fifties. But whereas Aunt Xia looked young and pretty and Mei Feng looked like she was in her thirties, Dad and Mom looked old and quite frail.
She should have known back then that their family didn’t have much money. How could Dad and Mom just give away 1.11 million?
She could imagine that the 1.11 million had depleted them of all their savings.
With their house sold off, where were they going to live?
Xia Nuannuan stood up and said. “Dad, Mom, to whom did you sell the house? Let’s return the money, let’s not sell the house.”
She used the back of her hand to dry her tears, but they just kept flowing and would not stop.
Dad Xia sighed and said, “Silly girl, the money has been paid. How can we decide not to sell just like that?”
Immediately, Xia Nuannuan sobbed spasmodically and said, “I’ll go back to Beijing now and get the check back from Aunty Mei. I’ll return you the money from the sale of the house! Please buy the house back!”
Mom Xia heard the main point of the message at once and asked, “Are you saying that the check is still with Zihao’s stepmother?”
Xia Nuannuan choked back her tears. After a moment, she nodded and said, “She said she was safekeeping it for us, in case we spent it frivolously.”
