Then, with a look of utter dismay, Ma Jinhua took out a silver bracelet wrapped in a floral handkerchief.

"This bracelet was bought for me by Jianqiang with the money he saved from copying books for others when he passed the imperial examination. Now that he is no longer here, I will give this bracelet to you as a keepsake."

How high-sounding your words are!

In fact, this family is smarter than monkeys. They traded a broken bracelet for the family's drinking water, which was an incredibly good deal!

But Liu Yingying did not accept the bracelet. "This won't do. Since it's a gift from the scholar to his mother, I dare not accept it!"

When the Zhu family heard her say this, they thought she was going to refuse them the water, and their hearts sank.

Ma Jinhua hurriedly explained, "No, it's not like that..." She suppressed her anger, "Look at you, ever since you married into our family, you have to take care of the old and the young, and do all the housework. In the end, the scholar passed away, and you don't have a son or daughter to rely on. Your father-in-law and I feel sorry for you, so you must accept this bracelet!"

Zhu Youcai quickly added, "Don't worry, from now on, Jiawang and his two siblings will be your own children. I will tell them to take good care of you and see you off in your old age!"

!!

Liu Yingying immediately frowned in displeasure, and her voice involuntarily rose, "Who are you cursing here?"

"No...that's not what I meant!!"

Zhu Youcai looked at everyone with a wronged expression, knowing in his heart that Liu Yingying was clearly putting on airs on purpose.

But now they are the ones who need their help, so no matter how angry they are, they have to hold it in.

Liu Yingying did it on purpose.

The original owner suffered so much grievance and humiliation after marrying into their family, and this resentment is not so easy to resolve!
