Wei Ran, filled with shame, hadn't reacted yet and just stood there in a daze.

Wei Miao walked past him as if he saw nothing, and someone pulled his sleeve.

"Brother, I was wrong." He cried and looked pitiful.

"So you want to stay?"

"Brother, why do I have to choose? I'm just a child... Why are you forcing me?"

Many images flashed through Wei Miao's mind, and countless thoughts surged in his heart. Finally, he looked at the "child" in pain in confusion.

Is this what Brother Lu meant by "I want this and more?"

Looking at the confused boy in front of her, Wei Miao wanted to talk to him about some truths. When the words came to her lips, Xu Ayu and Wei Ada's gloomy faces appeared. She pulled back her sleeves and said lightly:

"When A-Ling was your age, he had already brought back chestnut cakes for you to eat. Dad loved you so much that he always secretly shared his own with you. I wonder if the chestnut cakes you ate were worth the money you earned from picking up coal slag? After all, A-Ling picked up more than you, but ate less than you did."

These words were too heartbreaking. The neighbors looked at Wei Ran in a very strange way. Wei Ada grabbed Xu Ayu, who was a little soft-hearted, and shook his head at him.

Wei Miao looked at Wei Ran who was almost stunned and reminded him:

"My dear mother has already run far away. If I don't catch up with her, I will have to walk back again."

Wei Ran looked at his empty hands, cried out, and ran away crying...

Mrs. Peng handed the banknotes she had picked up from the ground to Wei Miao and comforted her:

"Oh, every family has its own problems. You can't keep a thief at home. Mr. Xiao Wei handled it very well."

"Mrs. Peng, thank you so much." Wei Miao took the money and thanked her sincerely.

Mrs. Peng waved her hands excitedly, "Oh, oh, you are too polite. Go back and comfort your mother first. I will come to her tomorrow to learn how to make pickles."

Wei Miao agreed with a smile, glanced at the neighbors who were still unsatisfied, and said:

"If you have any family problems or need to find someone, you can come to me. The price is negotiable."

When the people around heard this, they immediately dispersed.

You must be kidding. To find someone at such a price, is that person made of gold or silver?

The Wei family is really something. There has been no news for three days. We spent so much money looking for them, but they still turned out to be ungrateful. They really have a lot of money to burn.

Wei Miao closed the door contentedly, took Ali and Wei Dong's hands, and prepared to go and comfort the injured couple.

At this time, Wei Ling hugged the crying Ah Xi and shouted:

"Mom, Dad, it's bad, Ah Xi wet the bed again..."

Xu Ayu, who was secretly wiping away tears, muttered with red eyes, "Every one of them makes me worry."

Weidong and Pingmei went forward to hug Wei Ada's legs. Pingmei shook the bell on her little Jiujiu and said coquettishly:

"Dad, tomorrow the teacher asked us to bring our own kites, and you promised to make one for me."

"Dad, I want some too. Let's put it in the big pot!" Wei Dong's eyes lit up and he acted like a spoiled child.

Before Wei Ada could react, he was dragged to the utility room by the two little brats, and was given a headache by the two brats arguing over who should do it first.

Wei Miao, Wei Ling and Wei Li looked at each other and smiled, as if the farce just now had not happened.

Wei Miao shook the banknotes in his hand and said to the two of them:

"Change your clothes, I'll take you to Sister Lan's Cafe to get some free time!"

Wei Ling cheered and pulled Sister Li into the house, chattering about what clothes to wear and what kind of cake they wanted to eat.

Wei Miao put his hands behind his back with satisfaction and raised his chin to look at the human cub with tears in his eyes.

"Smile." Wei Miao teased him with her dimples.

The little cub was sleeping soundly, but was forcibly woken up, then accused of wetting the bed and blamed by his own mother. In the end, he thought he had escaped, but was still suppressed by the powerful aura. His pouting mouth was forcibly split open, revealing a small section of newly grown millet teeth. It was quite cute.

When Wei Miao came out after changing his clothes, Wei Ling and Ali had already changed their clothes and combed their hair. They were leaning against each other, whispering something.

Wei Miao walked towards Xu Ayu who was coaxing her child to sleep in the yard, "Mom, I'll go back to Juhuali tonight. Brother Lu can't leave without someone."

Hearing Lu Pingsheng, Xu Ayu's gloomy expression quickly faded, and he said with regret and distress:

"Yes, that's right. We need to take good care of Mr. Lu. I pray to the Buddha every day, hoping that he will get better."

Wei Miao's eyes flashed with cunning, and he handed the key to Xu Ayu, "Mom, if you have nothing to do, why don't you go to the east wing Buddhist temple in Mr. Zeng's house and chant sutras?"

Xu Ayu spit at her, "You've only had enough food for a few days, and you're already offering to the Buddha. You have to be sincere when you believe in Buddhism. Mom is afraid that the Buddha will blame you..."

Wei Miao curled his lips and took back the key.

She didn't know why Mr. Zeng gave her the key, nor did she want to find out the deeper meaning behind it.

"Brother is leaving."

After Wei Ling and the other girl finished their whisper, they stood under the eaves and told her to set off.

The three of them went out and when they passed by Mrs. Huang's house, they heard a quarrel inside.

"I don't know what kind of business the second wife of Wei has done, or what high position she has climbed. She was a beggar last time, but today the watch on her wrist is worth a lot of money. Cousin Luan, why do some women always want to become prostitutes?"

Her voice is shrill, recognizable, and sarcastic, and you can't help but hear it.

A soft voice like an oriole sounded, "I have really studied what you said, cousin. Men are all lowly creatures. A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and a secret lover is not as good as someone you can see but cannot eat. Are you right, cousin?"

Wei Ling took her eldest brother and Ali to walk a few steps quickly, wrinkling her nose and said, "I don't like the new cousin from Mrs. Huang's family."

Wei Miao thought of Xu Ayu's weird and disgusted expression when he mentioned Luan Qiaoling, and asked curiously: "What did she do? Did she hook up with my father?"

Ali and Wei Ling both looked at Wei Miao in admiration, "Brother, you are really awesome."

Wei Miao coughed violently, tears forming in his eyes, and then he felt better. "Really?"

Ali nodded, and Wei Ling complained, "When she first came, she was okay. She was pretty and spoke sweetly. Everyone in the alley liked her very much. But gradually I found that she only smiled at men. She was always like this to women..."

Wei Ling twisted her mouth and squinted her eyes, trying to imitate a disdainful expression, but ended up making Ali and Wei Miao laugh uncontrollably.

"That day when we came home from school, Ali and I saw it with our own eyes. She pretended to fall and threw herself directly into her father's arms..."

Wei Miao asked curiously, "How do you know she fell on purpose?"

Wei Ling was anxious, "Brother, shouldn't you ask about Dad's reaction?"

Wei Miao agreed with her and said, "A beautiful girl throws herself into my arms, what is my father's reaction?"

Wei Ling said in relief: "Dad was so scared that he almost crawled away, and he shouted, 'Just walk properly, you are the one who is blocking me, don't try to blackmail me.'"

The three of them laughed together again, chattering as they walked towards Sister Lan's coffee shop.
