He Tingchuan had to appease both the older and younger children, which exhausted him.
After confirming that Yun Jin was alright, Mrs. He breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the things on the ground, she picked them up and looked at them with a pained expression: "Mom..."
Although Mrs. He felt sorry for Yun Jin, she couldn't blame her: "It's alright, the bracelet is broken, as long as you're okay. It's a case of losing money to avoid disaster; it protected you from a calamity."
Yun Jin: "......"
Just then, Sister-in-law He and her daughter, who had heard the commotion, appeared and asked curiously, "What's going on?"
When Sister-in-law He saw the broken bracelet on Mother He's wrist, she exclaimed dramatically, "Oh dear, how did it break? Such a nice bracelet, how could you be so careless?"
Mother He glared at her, signaling to her sister-in-law to shut up.
Sister-in-law He looked at Yun Jin with a belated expression and said, "Don't be sad, sister-in-law. It's good that you're alright. The bracelet is broken, but it's broken. Mom can just buy you another one."
Mrs. He wanted to curse. This bracelet was something you could just buy whenever you wanted.
Yun Jin noticed the gloating look on Sister-in-law He's face, as well as the smug expression on He Zizhen's face. She narrowed her eyes and said, "It's just a broken glass bracelet. I don't need Mom to buy it for me. It's only a few cents. I can buy it myself."
"Glass...glass bottom?" Sister-in-law He couldn't believe it.
Mrs. He looked at it carefully: "It definitely doesn't look like the bracelet I gave you."
He Zizhen retorted, "Why are you wearing a glass bracelet? I don't even wear them. You really are..."
Yun Jin asked with a smile, "What is it?"
He Zizhen knew she would be scolded if she said it, so she wisely kept quiet.
Yun Jin's eyes turned slightly cold as she stared at He Zizhen, then picked up the glass bead from the ground: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have tripped. How come there's one like this in the house?"
Mother He looked at He Zizhen, who retorted, "I didn't do it on purpose. Who knew I'd lose one while playing?"
Sister-in-law He defended her daughter: "That's right, it's her own fault for not watching where she's going and accidentally stepping on it. She can't blame anyone else."
Mrs. He was angry: "If you hadn't left it lying around, would your aunt have stepped on it? Luckily, no one was hurt. It was just a broken glass bracelet. If she had been injured, I would have made trouble for you."
Mrs. He instructed, "Pack your things properly from now on, and quickly apologize to your aunt."
He Zizhen retorted, "She's blind and didn't see it, so it's my fault? I'm not apologizing!"
After saying that, he ran back to hide.
He Tingchuan, who hadn't spoken until now, snapped, "He Zizhen, apologize."
