Let her say whatever she wants, let her do as she pleases.
Before leaving, Gu Zhiyun called Shen Jingyan out alone and gave her twenty yuan.
"Jingya, this is from your parents. Take them and buy some things."
Shen Jingyan understood Fang Ru and Gu Huaiqian's good intentions.
They didn't want Shen Jingyan to spend money, but she definitely wouldn't accept the money if they gave it to her in person, so they asked Gu Zhiyun to pass it on.
Shen Jingyan accepted the money, but had no intention of spending it.
She took Gu Qing and Wang Hongfang to the department store. The mother and daughter had a consistent style, and they were not polite to Shen Jingyan at all. They took whatever they liked.

Wang Hongfang is really asking for an exorbitant amount.
Seeing that Chen Jingyan remained silent with a smile, she hurriedly said, "I'm just a country woman, and I've never worn a gold necklace in my life. If I buy one and wear it back to show the villagers, they'll definitely envy our family for having good relatives in the city."
