    ?

    Yan Xi was buying flower thread next door, and Xi Le stood in front of the window of the cake shop, looking at the cakes inside, and had been standing there for more than ten minutes.  Yan Xi came out of the shop next door and called out "Xi Le", but she still stood there without any reaction.

    "Xi Le." Yan Xi walked up to her, looked at the cake inside, "Want to eat cake?"

    Xi Le shook her head without confidence.

    When Yan Xi saw the price above, she couldn't help being shocked. She didn't expect the cakes to be so expensive now.  I remember that in the past, a cream cake of more than ten inches cost at most thirty or forty yuan, but now a nine-inch cake costs more than one hundred yuan?  This is too expensive!

    With the current family situation, it is absolutely extravagant to buy such a cake for my daughter.

    Xi Le also seemed to understand that she couldn't afford such a cake, so she took Yan Xi's hand: "Mom, let's go."

    Yan Xi clearly saw the disappointment in her daughter's eyes, and couldn't bear it.  Bringing Xile back to the window, he said, "Which cake does Xile like?"

    Xi Le shook her head and said, "Xi Le doesn't like any of them."

    Yan Xi squatted down: "When Xile celebrates her birthday, mother can buy Xile a cake that Xile likes."

    Xi Le said: "Mom, I don't want cake. I can just eat a bowl of noodles."

    Yan Xi's heart seemed to be pricked by a needle, and he forced a smile: "There are more than a hundred days until Xile's birthday, let's save one yuan every day, and then we can buy cakes for Xile."

    When Xi Le thought about it, one dollar didn¡¯t seem like a lot, so if you save one dollar a day, you should be able to save it, right?  She opened her eyes wide: "Is it okay? Grandma said, our money is going to buy medicine for Dad?"

    Yan Xi said: "Saving one dollar a day will not affect the purchase of medicine for Dad."

    "Thank you mom!" Xi Le smiled happily.

    The mother and daughter returned home.  Yan Xi immediately found a cardboard box, took out glue and a utility knife, sat down on the floor, and began to make a piggy bank for Xi Le.  Xi Le squatted beside her, handing Yan Xi this and that, very attentive.

    Yang Fan came over and asked, "What are you doing?"

    Yan Xi said: "Make a piggy bank for Xi Le."

    "Why do you suddenly want to make a piggy bank?"

    Yan Xi said: "I saw a cake on the street just now, and she was worried that she would not have enough money to buy medicine for you after buying the cake, so I told her that I could save one dollar a day, and it would be enough for her birthday.  "

    This was not a big deal at first, but Yang Fan thought of what Song Yunqing said just now, and felt that Yan Xi's approach was very hypocritical, isn't it just a cake?  Is the family so poor that they can't even afford the cakes that the children want to eat?  She still saves a dollar a day. Is she deliberately wanting the child to know that the embarrassing life in her family is caused by him?  What does the child remember when he thinks of him in the future?  He was the one who dragged the family down, making her unable to afford even a piece of cake!

    He sneered coldly: "A cake costing tens of dollars is worth the effort?"

    Yan Xi heard the unkindness in Yang Fan's tone, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "You should go out more often, now you can't buy a cake for tens of dollars. The smallest cake costs more than one hundred  !"

    "Really?" The price was indeed beyond Yang Fan's imagination, but he said immediately, "Even if it is more than a hundred, there is no need for the child to save a dollar a day to buy cakes, right? Those godfathers and godfathers of Xile, who are they?  Pay attention to the cake worth more than 100 yuan!"

    Yan Xi had already seated the piggy bank, and she told Xi Le: "Xi Le, take the piggy bank to your room, draw a picture on it, and make the piggy bank more beautiful, okay?"

    "Okay!" Xi Le agreed and ran into the room.

    Only then did Yan Xi look up at Yang Fan: "In front of the child, can you not speak so eccentrically?"

    "Am I pissed off? I'm just telling the truth. As long as you open your mouth, whether it's Yi Jingchen or Xie Wei, don't rush to buy cakes for the children? Don't talk about cakes, you just want the stars in the sky.  I can find a way to take it off for you!"

    Yan Xi sneered and said, "Don't you think it's ridiculous to ask others to buy cakes for your own daughter's birthday?"

    "It's ridiculous, but what else can I do? Haven't I been a joke in this town long ago? I have nothing but illness. I have to rely on my wife's old lover to help me out. I am now in your  In my eyes, there is probably no difference with that Wu Dalang, right?"

    As soon as he finished speaking, a slap landed on Yang Fan's face.  Yang Fan touched his face, and it hurt hotly. What made him even more frightened was Yan Xi's angry eyes.

    ?"Yang Fan, I have to warn you that you have cancer, which is indeed very regrettable and sympathetic, but it doesn't mean that you can do whatever you want, and it doesn't mean that everyone has to accompany you to worry and sigh! It doesn't mean that you can  Even give up the bottom line of being a human being! As long as you are still alive, as long as you still want to be a human being, I hope you think about it before you speak and do things! You are an adult, don¡¯t act like you are weak and vulnerable!  "

    Like a child who has done something wrong, Yang Fan stood in front of Yan Xi with his hands down.

    Yan Xi went into the kitchen to cook, opened the refrigerator, and saw another bag of pickles in the refrigerator, needless to say, Song Yunqing must have been there.  She always felt that her son was sick and the medicine was so expensive, so Yan Xi should be a virtuous daughter-in-law, and the standard of a virtuous daughter-in-law is to cut down on food and clothing, eat pickles by herself, and give Yang Fan the money saved to see a doctor.

    "After Yang Fan's father passed away, I ate dried pickles and radishes every day, and I saved Yang Fan's school money bit by bit." Almost every time she saw Yan Xi, she had to say something.  It seems that if Yan Xi is not eating pickles every day, she is committing a crime and murdering her son.

    Yang Fan's weird words just now must have something to do with his mother.  Thinking of this, Yan Xi became furious. She took out the bag of pickles and threw it into the trash can.

    Yang Fan saw it outside and wanted to say something, but he didn't dare.  He knew that Yan Xi was really angry!

    Yan Xi threw away the bag of pickles and felt uneasy, turned around and looked at Yang Fan: "Tell your mother, I, Xi Le, don't know how to eat pickles. Please don't judge my life. If you mother and son think that I am Pan Jinlian, I'm afraid  I murdered you, you can live with your mother, I will bring you meals every day, and your mother and son can test for drugs with a silver needle, what do you think?"

    Yang Fan said nah, "I, I didn't mean that!"

    Yan Xi wanted to say something else, but saw Xi Le walking out holding a piggy bank: "Mom, I finished the drawing."

    "Show mom." Yan Xi took the piggy bank in Xi Le's hand and looked at it, "What is this painting?"

    "It's Mom and Dad, and there's Xi Le." Xi Le pointed at the three small figures above, smiling very happily.

    Yan Xi went to the place where the wallet was kept in class, took out one yuan, and put it into Xile's piggy bank: "Today is the first day of saving money for Xile."

    Yan Xi shook the piggy bank: "Mom, do I have a dollar?"

    Yan Xi nodded.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
