"That's fine." The old man nodded, and did not forget to remind Mrs. Ji: "Xia Xia and Nan Nan are both our children. We treat them equally and don't show partiality to anyone."
Mrs. Ji secretly complained in her heart, who could be more partial than the old man? He didn't love his own granddaughter, but instead called the bastard of unknown origin "good girl".
On the surface, Madam Ji still smiled and agreed: "Of course, both of them are my treasures, Aunt Min."
Madam Ji beckoned to Aunt Min and ordered, "Bring my handbag here."
"Okay, ma'am." Aunt Min hurried to get it.
On this side, Mrs. Ji pretended to be a loving mother, holding Ji Zhixia's hand and looking at Ji Zhinan tenderly.
"My sisters are so envious when they know I have two sweet little girls. I also feel blessed to have two beautiful and sensible daughters..."
Aunt Min brought the bag over: "Madam."
"Yes, yes, yes." Mrs. Ji quickly took the bag and unzipped it while saying, "A lot of things have happened recently. Xia Xia is in a bad mental state. As a mother, I was extremely worried and said a lot of unpleasant things to Nan Nan."
"Xia Xia is almost well, so I bought a diamond bracelet for each of my two children. All the unhappy things in the past are over. From now on, everyone will be fine and free of illness and disaster."
As she spoke, Mrs. Ji took out two jewelry boxes from her bag, opened one of them and gave it to Ji Zhinan: "Nannan, this is yours."
Without waiting for Ji Zhinan to take it, she placed it directly on the table next to her and opened another one with a smile: "This is for my Xia Xia."
The beautiful diamond bracelet lay in the jewelry box, so beautiful.
Ji Zhixia's eyes lit up.
Looking at her daughter's expression, Madam Ji smiled dotingly and scratched her nose: "This is specially picked for you by Mom. Do you like it?"
"I like it!" Ji Zhixia answered quickly.
Mrs. Ji was in a good mood.
Ji Zhinan watched the interaction between the mother and daughter with an unknown smile on his lips. He didn't take the bracelet and didn't say anything.
After coaxing her daughter, Mrs. Ji looked at Ji Zhinan again. Although she was still smiling, she was obviously not as doting as before.
"Nannan, you must wear the bracelet mom gave you every day."
Ji Zhinan didn't answer.
Seeing that she didn't look happy at all, Mrs. Ji frowned and asked, "Don't you like the gift Mom gave you?"
Looking at her expression, it seemed that as long as Ji Zhinan said "yes", she would frown.
Ji Zhinan picked up the jewelry box on the table, first looked at the things, and then looked at Mrs. Ji: "Mom, did you really buy this for me?"
"Of course, I don't favor either you or Xia Xia." Mrs. Ji said.
"How much did it cost?"
"Tens of thousands..." Madam Ji stared at Ji Zhinan warily: "Why are you asking this?"
Ji Zhinan smiled and threw the jewelry box on the table: "Mom, you bought a fake."
It was visibly that Mrs. Ji's expression froze, her eyes were wandering, and she was obviously feeling guilty.
"You're talking nonsense!" Mrs. Ji was no longer as confident as before, and she stammered, "I bought this myself, how could it be a fake? You must have seen it wrong."
Ji Zhinan accurately took in Mrs. Ji's expression and asked meaningfully, "Really?"
"certainly!"
Mr. Ji is very old and doesn't know much about jewelry, but since his daughter-in-law bought it herself, he thinks it can't be wrong.
