It Isn’t Something That Can Be Measured With Money

“This… This is the best of the best! It’s very expensive!” said Old Madam Gu.
Old Madam Li was in a very good mood. As she put on the bracelet, she smiled and said, “My precious Ling’er’s gift isn’t something that can be measured by money.”
As she said that, she held Jiang Ling’er’s hand affectionately.
She said, “Ling’er, thank you. I haven’t been so happy in a long time.”
“It’s just a string of beads,” Han Xiaoxiao whispered. “There’s many fakes on the market; this one could be the same.”
Although her voice was very soft, her words were basically audible. Everyone looked at Old Madam Li as if they were watching melons grow.
Gu Hanhan was interested in this. After all, Jiang Ling’er and Han Xiaoxiao had both embarrassed her before. If both of them fought, she’d be very happy no matter who won. Of course, it’d be better if both sides suffered.
On the other hand, Mrs. Li was furious and looked at Han Xiaoxiao.
She warned, “Xiaoxiao, you’d better shut your mouth.”
“Aunt, I don’t know much about materials, but I know that the yellow rosewood is top-quality; it’s very rare. Suddenly taking out such a big bunch of them, Jiang Ling’er must’ve bought a fake,” Han Xiaoxiao said unwillingly.
Some of the guests who didn’t understand started discussing when they heard this.
Hearing the discussions, Han Xiaoxiao revealed a smug look.
However, Old Madam Li was very angry. Although this was her in-laws’ child, she had no upbringing.
She was about to lecture her when Old Madam Gu spoke first.
She asked, “Miss Han, do you think that my eyesight is bad and I’m mistaken?”
Han Xiaoxiao felt awkward. She didn’t expect Old Madam Gu to speak up.
She explained, “These days, high-quality imitations are very good. It’s fine to be wrong once in a while, Old Madam Gu.”
Old Madam Gu mocked, “You must’ve been living for a long time, Miss Han. You don’t know anything, but you still dare to speak nonsense. You’re the first to be like this. If you say you were the second best in the city, no one else would dare to say that they’re the first.”
Han Xiaoxiao’s expression turned ugly.
She looked at Jiang Ling’er and said, “Miss Jiang, didn’t my cousin abandon you? How do you still have the nerve to come? Moreover, you’re even trying to use fake goods to deceive Grandma Li.”
“Are you from Aunt Li’s family?” Jiang Ling’er asked.
Han Xiaoxiao nodded proudly.
She continued, “I heard your grandfather was a soldier and later went into business. Your father retired from the military and now he’s taking over Han Group.”
“You’re correct,” said Han Xiaoxiao proudly.
“I also heard that the Hans have a very strict upbringing,” Jiang Ling’er continued contemptuously.
Not knowing Jiang Ling’er’s insinuation, Han Xiaoxiao arrogantly replied, “You know quite a lot.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled, “Not much; just a little. Before I got engaged to your cousin, I heard from Auntie Han about the Han family’s upbringing.”
Han Xiaoxiao said innocently, “Hehe, so you knew that before your engagement was canceled. You’re abandoned now, though. Why are you sucking up to me?”
“Miss Han, you’re very interesting,” Jiang Ling’er said calmly. “Why should I be ashamed to come? I was the one who called off the engagement because he cheated on me. It’s also Li Yan’s fault. Anyuway, I’m here today because the Li family’s head personally invited me, and your uncle himself personally wrote me one.”
She paused briefly before continuing, “On the other hand, seems like you didn’t take your medicine before you came over. Or did you just leave your brain at home? You dare talk about me and Li Yan at Grandma Li’s birthday party; aren’t you slapping the Li family in the face? Also, what right do you have to call my gift fake goods? Do you have evidence? If you have it, then take it out. If you don’t, then use your brain and shut up before you ruin your reputation further.”
She then glanced at Mrs. Li and continued, “I’m also quite curious; Aunt Li is such a smart person, so how did she get a brainless niece like you? How much grease did you eat to be able to say those words just now?”
Han Xiaoxiao had lived for more than twenty years, but she had never been insulted like this. It could also be said that no one dared to slap the Han family’s face like this.
“You dare to lecture me, Jiang brat?” she angrily said.
Jiang Ling’er said scornfully, “What, do you think you’re in the right here? You insulted me; should I just keep quiet? If you don’t have a brain, then don’t leave the house. Even if you did, don’t forget your medicine, okay?”
Han Xiaoxiao looked at Mrs. Li with a wronged expression.
She whined, “Aunt, Cousin did the right choice by leaving this woman!”
