A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 399 Giving Gifts
“Mother, wear this. Jiaojiao gave it to you.”

Shen Yunlian took out a gold bracelet.

Grandma Shen immediately waved her hand upon seeing this: "Why would I wear this? No..."

This is gold.

"Jiaojiao, you should keep this for yourself. Grandma can't wear this bracelet."

Yun Jiao tilted her head: "Grandma doesn't like it?"

"Of course I like it, how could I not like it?"

This is gold! Who doesn't like gold?

"This thing is too valuable, Grandma can't take it."

Yun Jiao shoved it directly into her arms.

“It’s not valuable, Grandma, you take it. I have plenty at home. My mother has some, my aunt has some, my grandmother has some, and Grandma should have some too.”

Shen Yunlian rolled up her sleeves and showed her grandmother the gold bracelet on her wrist.

“Our Jiaojiao is very capable and filial. The women in her family give her gold bracelets, earrings, necklaces and the like. The men also have them, but they are made of gold with their zodiac animal symbols.”

"Oh my, that would cost a lot of gold."

"Even if you have money, you can't waste it like this."

Yun Jiao is a wealthy young woman with an exceptionally generous nature.

"Grandma, don't worry, I have plenty more to go."

Grandma Shen: You can't say that outside, or people will take notice of you.

Yun Jiao approached Grandma Shen with a big smile. She was already pretty, and her smile was incredibly endearing.

"I know Grandma, I'm not that stupid."

"And if they really have bad intentions, I'll knock out all their teeth."

Grandma Shen was amused and laughed: "But, Grandma really can't wear this gold bracelet. I'm just an old woman from the countryside. If I wear something so valuable, someone will covet it and rob me."

"You know Er Gou's mother from the next village, right? Er Gou's older brother set up a clothing stall in the city and made some money. He bought his mother a gold bracelet, just a tiny one."

She wore that gold bracelet everywhere, showing it off even in our village. Then, a few days later, we heard it was robbed. Someone knocked her unconscious from behind and took her to the hospital. They still haven't found out who stole the bracelet.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yunlian and the others gasped in shock: "This is outrageous!"

Grandma Shen nodded: "That's right. After Er Gou's mother woke up, she was wailing and cursing everywhere, but what could be done? She didn't even see clearly who stole her gold bracelet."

Yun Linhai: "That is indeed dangerous. Mother, you should find a place to hide the bracelet. If you need money in the future, you can just sell it. It's nice to keep this at home and secretly look at it yourself."

Shen Yunlian nodded; this bracelet really couldn't be worn in public.

However, they had no intention of taking it back.

"Why send such an expensive gift?"

Although she said that, Grandma Shen had a smile on her face.

She was overjoyed that her children were so filial and her granddaughter was just as filial.

Yun Jiao: "My aunt has one too."

She then took out another bracelet and gave it to her aunt.

Aunt Shen was startled: "No, no, I can't accept this."

Yun Jiao also gave it to her.

"If Auntie doesn't like gold bracelets, how about this jadeite bracelet or this jade bracelet? Which one do you prefer?"

This jadeite bangle is a very beautiful one with floating patterns. The texture and clarity are close to glass-like, with snowflake-like blue-green patterns floating inside.

The jade bracelet is white with a fine texture.

Yun Jiao prefers jade and gemstones to gold bracelets.

Of course, Yun Jiao also really liked some of the very well-made gold bracelets.

She has collected several of them herself.

Aunt Shen's mouth dropped open.

It's only been a short time since we last met, and Xiao Yunjiao's wealth is beyond her comprehension.

"Then, I'll take this gold bracelet." The other two seemed more expensive.

Of course, the most important thing is that gold bracelets are durable and won't break if dropped on the ground.

Those two are a different story; if they fall to the ground and break, she'll be heartbroken.

Yun Jiao nodded, then turned to sort through the gifts for her maternal grandparents and uncles.

Grandpa Shen's pipe was made of sandalwood; it was not only beautiful but also had a pleasant fragrance.

Uncle Shen's was a large thumb ring, made of jade, full of imperial green.

My eldest and second cousins' zodiac animal figurines are made of gold.

The size of a child's fist.

Shen Xiuyuan stared wide-eyed at what he was holding.

"I'm suddenly rich?!"

The next second, his mother ruthlessly took away what he was holding.

“You’re still young, you can’t take this out and waste it. I’ll keep it for you and give it to you when you get married.”

Shen Xiuyuan: …………

"That's for the older brother."

Aunt Shen: "I'll keep what your eldest brother gave me too."

Shen Kuan had no objection; he himself was afraid of losing such a big thing.

Shen Xiuyuan was speechless.

Yun Jiao chuckled. Her brothers' money was also kept by their mother, who said it was to be used as dowry for their wives.

The main reason is that I'm afraid the children will take the items and sell them, and then spend money recklessly, which is a bad habit.

The adults in the family all agreed with this and usually controlled their allowance.

Yun Jiao's was also constrained.

Of course, these were all gifts from Yun Jiao; the gifts from others were still in the tricycle.

Outside, a crowd had gathered around the tricycle, with two dogs and a cat eyeing the contents intently.

"Hey, this cat looks familiar."

"How could it not look familiar? It's that fierce tabby cat from our village. Didn't it leave with Da Niu's granddaughter? It hasn't been that long, and it's gotten so fat."

The cat leader, who had been called fat, brandished its claws at the man.

The man quickly said, "Does this cat understand what we're saying? I feel like it's going to scratch me."

"It looks like I'm about to scratch your face a couple of times."

Yun Linhai and the others came out and greeted everyone with smiles.

"Ah Lian's family, what good things have you brought this time?"

"How do you make so much money? Do you have any good job recommendations? We've watched A-Lian grow up, and we should help each other out, hehe..."

That's really shameless.

Everyone was disgusted with it in their hearts, but they all pricked up their ears.

Yun Linhai chuckled and said, "What kind of work do we have? My whole family are fishermen. We were lucky enough to catch a tuna before, which we sold for a few thousand dollars, but some of it was stolen. All of these things are fish and shrimp that we catch ourselves from the sea. We didn't spend much money."

He then openly showed them what was in the truck bed.

There was a styrofoam box filled with ice, inside which were three large yellow croakers, as well as some smaller yellow croakers and seafood such as lobsters.

The other basket contained dried kelp, dried mantis shrimp, shredded squid, and smoked fish.

"Look, we got all of these from the sea ourselves. We have a boat, so it's convenient. We were lucky enough to get so much seafood."

Everyone glanced at him, and although they were also envious of what he said, they were also quite taken aback.

After all, this is all meat, and that lobster looks expensive.

That's incredibly generous.
