This was the first time the girl had such pretty clothes. She was afraid that Han Yu could not bear to let them go and would be sad if they took the clothes away for now.
Actually, she had the money to buy her new clothes. But since Han Yu lived at the Han house, she could not spend money on such nice clothes for her. Otherwise, her mother would definitely demand money from her or even take Han Yu’s clothes and sell them.
As her aunt, if she had the money, it would be more worthwhile to buy food for Han Yu.
In the past, she bought new clothes for Han Yu a few times, all made of plain cloth. Now Li Qinglang was buying such expensive clothes. Her family could not afford such things.
Han Yu was already delighted to have such things. What did it matter if she had to wait a day?
She would have been happy to wait a few days.
“Aunt, I understand.”
She understood that these were gifts!
When the shopping was done, Li Qinglang sent Han Jing and Han Yu home, but he did not drive them to their doorstep. Instead, they got out of the car at the village entrance.
Han Jing brought Han Yu back. It was late now. She waited until her elder brother and sister-in-law would be back before returning.
Han Jing was carrying things that Li Qinglang had bought – some biscuits, melon seeds and small snacks.
There was also a roast duck and some braised pork.
Li Qinglang bought the meat for them. Since Han Jing had to tell her parents that they met that afternoon, she could not possibly come back empty-handed. It was only acceptable if her boyfriend bought some food as a present for his girlfriend.
When Han Jing entered the house, everyone could smell the fragrance of the roast duck and the braised meat.
Han Chuanzong had a particularly sensitive nose, and he immediately charged over.
“Meat! It smells so good! Give it to me!”
Han Jing frowned. “Wait a while. We’re going to have dinner soon, and we can eat it together. There’s plenty for all of us.”
“You’re not allowed to eat it. It’s all for me!” Han Chuanzong shouted.
Han Jing immediately lost her temper. “Nonsense. Han Chuanzong, how many times have I told you that you’re not to eat it yourself.”
Han Chuanzong fumed, “Give it to me. It’s for me alone. The rest of you are girls. You’re not allowed to eat it.”
“Han Chuanzong…” Han Jing roared.
“Why are you shouting? He’s just a child. You’re his elder sister. Shouldn’t you give in to him? Hurry up and hand it over!”
Mother Han’s protective voice rang out before Han Jing could correct Han Chuanzong.
Han Jing’s head throbbed. It was always like that. Every time she tried to correct Han Chuanzong, her parents would stop her. Her younger brother was unbearably spoilt. Sooner or later, he would be ruined!
“Mother, you mustn’t continue to spoil Younger Brother like that. He will be ruined sooner or later. Look at him now. He…”
“Shut up!” Father Han banged on the table. “What’s the matter with your younger brother? You think you’re so great because you got into a university? Don’t forget, you’re a girl. In the future, you will have to depend on your younger brother. If you don’t treat him well now, why should you depend on him in the future?”
Han Jing: “…”
Han Chuanzong said as a matter of fact, “That’s right! Let me tell you, if you don’t treat me better, you can’t expect to depend on me in the future.”
Han Jing was infuriated. “Who needs to depend on you? You don’t know how to do anything. You’re only number one when it comes to eating. You’ve been in school for so long, but you only know how to read a few words. You don’t know how to do any of the chores around the house. What kind of future will you have? I don’t think I’ll need to depend on you!
“Even now, you depend on me to get married so you can have a villa to get a bride! If you’re so capable, then don’t depend on me!”
“You…” Father and Mother Han were about to explode.
“If you continue fussing, I’ll throw away the meat!” Han Jing threatened.
