"Big sister, since Big Brother and the others have lost their allowances, you must help us out."
After leaving Grandma's room, Yan Wenkai quickly cornered Daohua.
Behind him, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wentao also looked at Daohua with hopeful faces.
There was no choice, among the younger family members, only Daohua had achieved financial independence. For them, being at the Academy without a single piece of silver was truly inconvenient, to be honest.
Whether it was buying more writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, or going out with classmates, all of these required spending silver.
Daohua would not comply; her three brothers had run off to Fenxi on their own without notifying the family beforehand. No matter how you looked at it, what they did was wrong, and she wasn't about to encourage their misbehavior.
"Absolutely not! Although you have your reasons, the family was genuinely worried. When you do something wrong, you should be punished, right, Big Brother?"
