After saying that, he took Jiang Suihe's hand and walked into the house.

Jiang Yaojie looked at Shen Congxin with some anger. After seeing Jiang Ling and Jiang Suihe leave, Shen Congxin also put on a cold expression.

The two stared at each other, locked in a stalemate.

After a long while, Jiang Yaojie gave in and softened his tone, saying, "Why did you give away the things I gave you to someone else?"

"Then why did you buy two hairpins but only give me one?" Shen Congxin finally asked the question on her mind when no one was around.

“That was for my mother. It wasn’t easy for her to raise us children. How could you, a rich young lady, know the lives of us poor folks? Originally, I just wanted to buy you a hairpin to apologize, but I felt that the hairpin suited my mother very well, so I bought it as well. If you don’t like the hairpin, just give it back to me. Why give it to someone else?” Jiang Yaojie blurted out everything on his mind.

Hearing Jiang Yaojie's words, Shen Congxin felt even more annoyed. She shouldn't have assumed such things about Jiang Yaojie; now it seemed she had truly been "judging a gentleman by her own petty standards!" However, Shen Congxin was too embarrassed to admit it, so she hummed and said, "I... I just think it's suitable for Sister Suihe to wear..."

"Then you can't give away the things I gave you to someone else!" Jiang Yaojie was really getting anxious, and his face started to turn slightly red.

Shen Congxin knew he was in the wrong and didn't say anything more. The atmosphere was extremely awkward when Jiang Ling appeared beside them at the right moment. She glanced at Jiang Yaojie and said, "Yaojie, go check on the growth of the cotton and potatoes in our fields! Congxin, come with me!"
