The people in...

Chapter 31 A Priceless Gift

Logically speaking, a woman like her wouldn't have much strength to push a man very far.

But what's that saying again?

When you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can cause you to choke.

By sheer coincidence, Shen Hui's push sent Du Yutao tumbling into a corner, causing him to fall backward and hit the back of his head hard against the corner of the table.

There was a muffled thud, followed by Du Yutao's painful groan.

Shen Hui subconsciously turned her head to take a look.

Just then, I saw Du Yutao clutching the back of his head, slumped limply to the ground.

His eyes were wide open, staring intently at her. His hand reached towards the door, and his mouth opened as if he wanted to beg her to save him.

There was a trail of bright red blood flowing from the back of his head.

Shen Hui was startled when she saw this.

Without thinking, she quickly closed the door and ran away.

At this moment, she no longer cared that the drab countryside was unworthy of her, the chosen reborn woman. She rushed back home without looking back.

The Huo family.

Grandpa and Grandma came here this morning to wait for their grandson, knowing he was being discharged from the hospital today.

Seeing their eldest grandson being pushed in by his granddaughter-in-law, who not only hadn't lost weight but also looked like he'd gained some weight, the elderly couple finally felt relieved.

Yueyatou is indeed very lucky for her eldest grandson; this goes without saying, and it can be seen from Huo Cheng's expression and other aspects.

The family sat happily chatting on the sofa. As a great contributor to Huo Cheng's hospitalization, the old man and the old lady liked Yingyue very much.

The old man couldn't do much, so he could only give Yingyue a few things.

The old lady took out a handkerchief from her bosom, inside which was a clear, bright green bracelet without a single impurity.

I took off the handkerchief, held the bracelet up to the light, and the emerald green inside the bracelet seemed to flow.

It's obvious at a glance that it's a very rare and valuable item.

“This was given to me by your great-grandmother when Grandma was young.”

She had kept this bracelet with her for decades, and now she was giving it to Yingyue, which could be considered a kind of inheritance.

I don't know if I can accept Yingyue.

It's too expensive.

She looked at Huo Cheng.

The old lady put the bracelet on her wrist, saying, "Don't listen to everything A-Cheng says."

You need to get used to taking charge.

“From now on, you will be in charge of your household, and A-Cheng will have to listen to you.”

"If he doesn't listen to you, tell Grandma, and she'll deal with him."

The old lady pretended to be fierce as she lectured Yingyue.

Yingyue blinked curiously.

Can even auspicious beasts make decisions?

Will Huo Cheng listen to her?

She didn't know.

But this bracelet is really beautiful!

"Huo Cheng, is it good-looking?"

She habitually held up the bracelet in front of Huo Cheng so he could see it.

Huo Cheng smiled faintly and gently took her hand.

"nice."

"Thank you, Grandma."

Yingyue also thanked Tiantian, "Thank you, Grandma."

The old lady gave Yingyue a bracelet, and the old man, not to be outdone, also handed Yingyue a small box.

The carved wooden box looks like it's been around for many years.

There was a small lock hanging on it.

The old man handed her the key.

"Yue'er, open it and take a look. This is something your grandfather entrusted to me for safekeeping. He said he would give it to you when you grow up."

Old Master Huo and Old Master Cheng were old acquaintances.

Although one was a soldier and the other was the son of a family of doctors, the two shared similar interests and got along very well.

They had known each other since they were young, and had even made a promise that if they could grow old together, they should never forget to play chess together. But who knew that Old Cheng would pass away so suddenly...

Thinking of the past, Old Master Huo couldn't help but wipe the corner of his eye.

"Moon Girl, quickly open it and take a look. Inside is something your grandfather left for you."

"grandfather?"

Yingyue was curious about the grandfather the old man mentioned, so she took the key and opened the lock.

There was an envelope inside.

She looked at Huo Cheng, and Huo Cheng nodded.

Yingyue then took the letter out of the envelope with a puzzled look and opened it.

The letter is very well preserved; even though nearly twenty years have passed, the smooth handwriting is still clearly visible.

This is a letter that Grandpa Cheng wrote to his only granddaughter.

The letter stated that by the time Yingyue read it, he would likely no longer be alive.

He felt extremely guilty for not being able to take good care of Yingyue as she grew up.

But please don't doubt it, Yingyue, their love for her has never changed...

The letter left by the old man was short, just a thin sheet of paper.

It's an elder's reluctance to part with a younger generation and their words of advice, as well as the wealth left to her by her grandfather, enough for her to rely on.

Inside the envelope was a land deed.

It was a large mansion located in a very good location in Beijing.

Besides this mansion, there is also a bank deposit slip and a key. It is a deposit slip from a foreign bank in Shanghai, and the amount written on it is US$30,000.

Thirty thousand US dollars was a huge sum of money at that time.

The key was used to open the bank's safe deposit box.

Inside are things that Grandpa Cheng prepared for Yingyue.

Yingyue had never met this grandfather before.

However, judging from the things he left behind, he truly loved his granddaughter very much.

She felt depressed after reading the contents of the envelope.

It felt like being stuffed with a lemon, leaving me feeling sour and weak.

She looked up at Grandpa Huo beside her and asked, "Grandpa, do you know how the Cheng family got into trouble?"
