Chapter 719: Pretentious

Qiao Xuan smiled proudly, showing off her bracelet. "Oh, this," she said, rolling up her sleeves to reveal her pure white wrist.

The translucent bi-color jadeite bracelet stood out against her skin, creating a pleasing contrast.

"First Madame gave it to me," she continued, "her Auntie Hua told me it's worth around 10,000 liang and asked me to take good care of it. Breaking it would be such a pitiful thing. It was a gift from First Madame, you know. But for my husband who makes it to Provincial Champion, I would not have put it on!"

Madame Qiao's expression turned sour upon hearing this, and the others were envious of Qiao Xuan's prestigious gift. Even Concubine Du was impressed by the value of the bracelet.

The others all gasped in disbelief.

"What? Worth 10,000 liang? You must be joking!"

"I can't believe it either!"
