Chapter 403: Whose stuff was all of this?

Matriarch Yu placed Xiao Liuliu onto the sofa as she said this. After that, she held onto Nian Xiaomu’s hand and made her sit beside her.
With all smiles, she said, “Come to Grandma and look at the gifts that I have brought for you.”
“…”
As Nian Xiaomu was pushed onto the sofa, she counted the number of boxes on the coffee table. There were a total of four boxes.
All of the boxes were very delicately crafted.
She was unable to guess the contents inside the boxes immediately though.
However, Matriarch Yu wasn’t someone who would keep people in suspense as well. Holding up a box, she opened it right in front of Nian Xiaomu.
A gentle and bright ray of light emitted from the highly permeable jade bangle.
The black flannel that laid beneath the bangle further accentuated the radiance of the jade.
Nian Xiaomu only took a single glance at it before she squinted her eyes lightly.
She could see that the price of this jade bangle was hefty even without asking!
Furthermore, it was very difficult to find such fine jade nowadays…
There wouldn’t be much of a concern if the price of the jade was the only factor that was important.
However, she noticed that Yu Yuehan’s expression had also flickered slightly when Matriarch Yu opened the box just now.
There must be a story of some sort behind the bangle, right?
Yu Yuehan caught sight of her gaze. Opening his thin lips, he said, “This was the dowry that Grandma brought along from her family’s home when she married my Grandpa. For all these years, she has treasured it dearly and has been very reluctant to wear it.”
“…”
Nian Xiaomu quickly retracted her hand that had reached out halfway and was in extending midair.
“Matriarch, I cannot accept such a precious gift!”
“I’m gifting it to you, so just take it. Any valuable items will become useless once a person is dead. It is good that Yuehan did not let me down and brought me a satisfying granddaughter-in-law before my eyes closed permanently. Grandma is very happy!” As Matriarch Yu said this, she insisted on having her way and slipped the bangle around Nian Xiaomu’s wrist.
After that, she patted the back of Nian Xiaomu’s hand gently.
“I knew that this would be perfect for you. My little girl, you carry such elegance in you. Even though you were not born in a rich family, you do not fall a single bit behind those daughters from the rich and powerful families whom I have seen.”
Matriarch Yu reached out and picked up another box once she finished her sentence.
At this point in time, Nian Xiaomu absolutely did not dare utter a single word since the first gift was already so precious.
Matriarch Yu brought the second gift before her. When she saw that it was a very small and exquisite necklace with silver pig, she heaved a sigh of relief immediately.
She received it happily.
“It’s so cute, but this should be an accessory that is worn by a child when they are at a very young age. Was it Xiao Liuliu’s?” Nian Xiaomu sized up the little silver pig necklace and asked with uncertainty.
Judging from its style, it seemed to be an old design.
However, it was indeed an accessory for a kid, and there weren’t any other young kids in the Yu Family villa other than Xiao Liuliu.
Upon hearing Yu Yuehan cough, Nian Xiaomu turned around and looked at Yu Yuehan with a perplexed look.
Immediately, Matriarch Yu laughed out loud and said, “Haha, it wasn’t Xiao Liuliu’s. It belonged to Yuehan when he was young!”
Nian Xiaomu: “…!!”
When she twisted her head around and looked at Yu Yuehan for a second time, he reached out and took the little silver pig necklace from her hand.
After that, he conveniently placed it in his pocket.
Nian Xiaomu got a rude shock!
Trying to destroy all trace of evidence?
Too late!
Nian Xiaomu had finally found a chance to mock him. Without saying anything further, she lunged forward and proceeded to ransack his pockets.
“Return it back to me! The matriarch gave it to me!”
“This is mine… Nian Xiaomu, don’t grope around!” Yu Yuehan blushed slightly as he reached out and restrained her fiddling hand.
Yu Yuehan’s body tightened up silently as her hand rubbed around his thigh.
His voice grew lower and deeper as well.
Nian Xiaomu was so blinded by her reclamation effort that she blurted out, “What do you mean by groping?! I observed and checked the correct spot before I laid my hands on you!”
