Fourth Aunt's mention of a child's first-month celebration stunned her. She was still a child herself, and she was supposed to have a child? She had never even considered having a child with Xiao Yunjing.
Ms. Qiao sighed helplessly, took out a purse from her bosom, and poured out a silver kernel, which looked to be about an ounce. She took Gu Qingli's hand, placed the silver kernel in her palm, and said, "Xiaoli, please take this. Consider it a small token from us elders."
Gu Qingli was annoyed but accepted it anyway. If she didn't, who knew how long this would drag on.
She said, "Thank you, First Aunt, and my other aunts. I will accept this. Let's go up the mountain now."
The people who had come to help repair the house arrived, and only then did Ms. Qiao nod.
