Qin Jiao immediately gave her younger sister a look. Xiao Shi's lower lip quivered, and she instantly started to sob.
Qin Zhonghui continued, "And when Xiao Yun and I got married, we had nothing—just a few quilts."
Old Mrs. Qin chimed in, "Didn't I give you a bracelet?"
Su Yun chuckled humorlessly. "Mom, to be honest, I was quite happy when I first received that bracelet. It wasn't valuable, but it was a gesture from my elder, after all. But who would have known that Feng Lan would later tell me it was originally part of a pair? One was lost, and the remaining one was chipped, which was why I got it. Then, she proceeded to show off the 'three big-ticket items' she received for her wedding. Mom, can you imagine how I felt then?"
Old Mrs. Qin fell silent.
Qin Jiqun grumbled, "Whatever. I don't have the money right now! I can't come up with five thousand!"
