When Duan Mei heard this, she glared at Yu Pan. Then, she hurriedly looked at Mr. Yu as she explained guiltily, "If I bring jam to them, they'll think that our family is doing well. Wouldn't this give our Yu family pride? I don't want to be inferior to my sister and let those gossipy women say that you're inferior to my brother-in-law."
Only then did Mr. Yu relent. Yu Pan secretly rolled her eyes. It had been quite a while since her mother had been subsidizing her maiden family behind her father's back. However, she didn't want to be the bad guy who revealed it. She was going to marry out of the family anyway, so if she offended her mother, her dowry might get deducted.
