The old lady is reborn

"Why should you lose my things when you lose the bet? I won't give it to you!" Huanqing's wife yelled angrily.

Her gambler brother said, "What do you mean? Didn't you just say that you are my relatives and that I will naturally ask you for help when I encounter trouble?

You are so angry when I ask you to take out some jewelry? Aren’t those gold jewelry given by your mother-in-law and brother-in-law? They will give more in the future. If the old ones go, the new ones will come.”

After hearing this, Huanqing's wife seemed to really think about getting new jewelry from her mother-in-law and husband again, and turned her head to look at Huanqing.

Huan Qing, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up: "The jewelry my mother gave me has been passed down from generation to generation. If we sell it, the inheritance will be cut off in our hands."

The brother-in-law said, “Listen, sister, your jewelry is just for you to keep, and you will give it away in the end.

In my opinion, only when you spend something, it is yours."

Huanqing recalled the last time he saw his mother and younger sister. His younger sister seemed angry, but his mother still felt sorry for him.

The mother said that he worked day and night and was very tired, and because she felt sorry for him, she didn't want to cause any trouble.

But my sister said that this bottomless pit was like a monster, opening its bloody mouth wide and ready to skin and eat her whole.

He smiled and thought that his sister was still a child who had read too many storybooks.

But the younger sister saw the worry in her mother's eyes, the worry that made him sad and guilty, and she sighed.

She also said that she was not talking nonsense, saying that if the eldest brother did not withdraw from this family, he would be squeezed dry sooner or later, and even the set of jewelry passed down would not be able to be kept.

Huan Qing blurted out: "No."

Huanxi asked, "What if they really sold that set of jewelry?"

Huanqing remembers his wife's joy when she saw the gold jewelry. She only took it out to wear during the holidays in recent years and kept it like a treasure.

He knew that his wife loved her good-for-nothing brother, but she would not sell the set of gold jewelry that had been used as a token of engagement between the couple.

What's more, she likes it very much.

So Huan Qing replied firmly: "If she really sells it, we can do whatever you say!"

Huanxi smiled and said, "You won't regret what you said, right?"

Huan Qing was relieved to see his sister smile: "Brother will never break his promise."

"Okay, if she sells that set of jewelry, you have to sell the only small house you have left and return the money to mother."

Huanqing was stunned.

Huanxi added, "Brother's original house was originally bought for you by your parents, but you sold it without even telling me and gave half of the money to your brother-in-law to buy a house.

If I don’t return it, I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep this small house that I bought with the other half of the money.

If you can keep the gold jewelry, I believe you can keep the small house. If you sell all the gold jewelry, the small house will be gone sooner or later. It is better for you to return it to your mother. "

Huanqing felt guilty and thought that his brother-in-law, who had just learned a lesson, should not repeat the same mistake. He also felt that his wife would never sell the gold jewelry, so he agreed.

Now he instinctively wanted to stop his wife and brother-in-law from taking possession of this set of jewelry.

But after just a few words, it seemed that the brother-in-law's twisted logic prevailed.

My sister said that for the sake of fairness and to truly understand what they would do, she couldn't tell them about it. If the jewelry was sold secretly, she couldn't tell them before the house was sold.

Huanqing had a bad feeling about his wife's silence. Given her temper, she didn't refute him immediately, which meant she was probably persuaded.

The brother-in-law moved in these few days. Huanqing had a vague feeling that his father-in-law, mother-in-law and their children were discussing something, but he had two jobs to do and really had no time to take care of it.

Before taking the two sets of jewelry out, the celebrating wife looked at them for a long time with nostalgia. Each piece was very heavy.

Two large gold bracelets, an exquisitely crafted necklace with a heavy gold medal with auspicious cloud and Ruyi ingot pattern, a set of six gold hairpins, and six pairs of pendant-like earrings of different styles.

The set of gold jewelry given by my mother-in-law is impeccable in terms of quality and craftsmanship.

Although the style is not the latest, it is still eye-catching due to the exquisite craftsmanship.

The only drawback is that the size, weight and style are too large, heavy and complicated, and it is not a small jewelry that can be worn on a daily basis.

Because of this, the husband took out the money he had saved before marriage and bought himself another set. There were quite a few pieces, but they were all slender and smart designs that could be worn on a daily basis.

She was reluctant to part with it at first, but her parents said that as long as she sold it and bought her brother a smaller house in the village, her and her brother's names could be written on the deed to the house.

Celebrate that your wife is moved. The flowers are yours.

She took one last look at these treasures and resolutely handed them over to her brother, who had ways to sell them for a high price.

Huanqing's father-in-law was worried about his son, and when he heard that the things had been given, he hurried out of the house, thinking it would be safer for them to go together.

But soon after he left the house, the gambler met an acquaintance in the casino: "You look like you have a lot of money today, why don't you go and play a few rounds? If you are lucky, you will be extremely rich."

The gambler's heart moved.

His father caught up with him from behind, and the gambler's brother and the acquaintance laughed twice, said goodbye to each other and parted ways.

Worried about his son, the man who caught up with him breathlessly asked, "Who is that man?"

"I don't know him. I was walking too fast and bumped into him. We apologized to each other."

"Okay, I'll help you sell the things."

"Okay." The gambler said this, but he didn't think so in his heart. Once his gambling addiction was aroused, he couldn't help it.

He wants to go gamble right now, thinking that he is very lucky.

Besides, once these things are turned into cash, there is no chance that they will fall into my pocket and I will be able to gamble happily.

When passing by a noodle shop, the gambler's brother said he was hungry, so the father and son went in and ordered a bowl of noodles each. The waiter brought them tea.

But after eating a few bites, the father felt dizzy and fell headfirst on the table.

When he woke up from a daze, he found that the seat opposite him was empty. He was startled and looked at the waiter who was also looking at him: "Where is the person who was eating noodles with me?"

The waiter said, "That's your son, he said you were too tired and wanted to take a nap.

He went to the store opposite to buy two meat patties and then came back. We didn't pay attention to him, but he didn't come back for a long time.

If you don't wake up, we won't dare touch you. We're thinking about whether to report to the police."
