"Haven't you heard that jade breaking is an ominous sign? It means your precious little daughter is indeed nearing the end. You should hurry up and prepare for her funeral." I was so angry that I couldn't help but stand up and retort sarcastically.
Tang Xiu'e pointed at my nose and yelled, "With such a vicious mouth, you'll get your comeuppance sooner or later! It's just a broken bracelet; it should have been buried with your mother long ago!"

After saying that, I gave a smug smile and prepared to leave.
