Although Shen Wenfang spoke firmly, she was still heartbroken and breathless when she thought about having to throw away the box full of small yellow croakers.
Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn't help but smile with her hands covering her lips. She had just admired the two people in her heart for not being moved by money.
She quickly stuffed two small yellow croakers into Shen Wenfang's hands.
"Mom, now that we have money, we can exchange this for cash and buy more food, meat and vegetables to nourish your bodies."
When Shen Wenfang heard this, she no longer cared about the box of small yellow croakers. She immediately held the two small yellow croakers tightly like a calf and hurriedly stopped them:
"What money? No! This nice little yellow croaker must be kept for your dowry. We have food at home."
Even Lin Weiguo nodded in agreement:
"It's better not to take this out yet. Who knows if someone will notice it? What if the person who hid it happens to find it?"
"So I'd better put it away first and talk about it later when I have the chance."
Now it was Lin Ran's turn to be dumbfounded.
No, she took these things out to improve her family's living conditions, but now she is not allowed to exchange them for money. Wouldn't her efforts be in vain?
Lin Ran did not give up and continued to fight:
"But Dad, aren't you planning to treat Shi Zhiqing to a meal? Wouldn't it be bad to have no meat or vegetables at home? We can find another one first, it should be fine."
Lin Weiguo rejected it again.
"Don't worry about the meat. I've already told someone I know who knows the people at the commune slaughterhouse. He said he'll give me some leftovers tomorrow. I can buy them without a ticket, so there's no need to exchange them."
Seeing Lin Ran's depressed expression, Shen Wenfang teased:
"Ranran, are you craving meat? Ask your dad to bring back some more meat tomorrow so you can eat more."
What else could Lin Ran say? She could only force a smile and nod.
She really didn't expect Lin Weiguo to be so cautious, but she couldn't say that these things were all hers and there was really no danger.
At this moment, Lin Laosan's voice suddenly came from outside the window.
"Second sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
Wang Zhaodi laughed awkwardly.
"I saw that my parents hadn't come out yet, so I wanted to call them for dinner."
Hearing the conversation outside, the three people in the room looked at each other and immediately stopped talking.
Shen Wenfang even glared fiercely out the window.
"Wang Zhaodi is so treacherous! She even came here to eavesdrop. What's going on? Is she planning to steal the gold bracelet?"
"No, I have to hide these somewhere secluded. I can't let her touch them."
It was really because of Wang Zhaodi's previous behavior of stealing food that Shen Wenfang was instinctively on guard.
When the three of them went out, they saw Lin Laosan blocking Wang Zhaodi at the window.
Wang Zhaodi, who was originally standing with her hands on her hips and looking very aggressive, immediately restrained her expression and smiled ingratiatingly when she saw Lin Ran and the others coming out.
"Mom, Dad, and little sister, you guys are out! I saw lunch was getting cold, so I wanted to call you to eat. But my third brother stopped me like he was guarding me against thieves. This really hurts me."
Lin Laosan curled his lips when he heard this:
"It was you who wanted to eavesdrop, and you were the first to complain."
Shen Wenfang was too lazy to pay attention to them and immediately urged impatiently:
"Okay, let's eat quickly, it's getting late."
At the dinner table, Boss Lin and Liu Ping were leaning against each other, fiddling with their bracelets and had no time to eat.
Shen Wenfang tapped his chopsticks, frowned, and asked:
"Boss, what are you two busy with if you don't eat?"
Liu Ping blushed and stammered:
"Mom, I want to take off the bracelet."
Shen Wenfang's expression was indescribable. They were so stupid that they couldn't even take off the bracelet.
"Hold it with your hands!"
Shen Wenfang took off the bracelet in no time.
Now she didn't want to take it back, after all, she was no longer the same person she was before.
She had just touched two small yellow croakers and had just given up a box of small yellow croakers.
Now this gold bracelet can no longer stir up much waves in her heart. After all, Liu Ping is her daughter-in-law, so she might as well give it to her.
But Liu Ping just waved her hand and refused.
"Mom, I really can't take this. Give it back to my little sister."
She really couldn't stand the way her second brother and sister-in-law looked at her. She felt like she was on fire and was about to burn herself to death.
Moreover, she was the only one who had it, even her younger sister didn't keep any for herself. She felt really guilty about taking it, so even though Boss Lin glared at her several times, she still refused to take it.
Seeing that she refused so strongly, Lin Ran did not force her. As long as she achieved her goal, it was fine, so she let Shen Wenfang put it away herself.
"Mom, then you can keep it for my sister-in-law first. When my sister-in-law gives birth to a child, you can give it to the child in the same way."
Maybe maternal love is a woman's instinct. Liu Ping, who had a rare firm attitude, suddenly fell silent when she heard this and lowered her head shyly.
Even Shen Wenfang agreed with a smile.
"That's a good idea. Let them see how kind an aunt you are to them. You've prepared gold bracelets for them before they were even born."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhaodi immediately jumped out to show her presence.
"Mom, if I give birth to a child, wouldn't it be my nephew? If I have a nephew and I don't have one, what will the child think?"
But Shen Wenfang didn't buy her trick and directly retorted.
"What can you think? If the child asks, just tell the truth. It's you who doesn't want it."
Wang Zhaodi was speechless and so angry that she almost bit her teeth off.
Just then, Lin Weiguo spoke.
"No one of you is allowed to tell anyone about the bracelet Ranran found today, do you understand?"
