Shen Baolan was kind and virtuous, treating her stepson as her own, while the original character was harsh and mean, either beating or scolding the stepson.

Shen Mingzhu had become a college student, Shen Mingzhu's man didn't die but instead became a big boss, and Shen Mingzhu's stepson turned into a child prodigy. Shen Baolan, who pined for her husband to succeed, was still bitterly waiting for the day her man would rise to greatness.

Chapter 77 Qin Jinlian Intends to Pawn the Gold Bracelet

"You damn girl, babbling nonsense? I'm already this old, how could I possibly give birth now? If anyone heard, they'd laugh their heads off."

"They'd laugh at you, not me."

Qin Jinlian was so angry she could only stare, her eyes suddenly caught sight of the gold bracelet on Shen Mingzhu's wrist.

"Did Pei Yang buy that bracelet for you?"

"Who else? You think I'd find some man on the side to buy it for me?"

"Can't you speak nicely? What, did you eat gunpowder?"

"You try being woken up harshly from sleep and see if you're not angrier than me."

Qin Jinlian pursed her lips, "Well, can you lend the bracelet to your sister-in-law for a few days?"

"No."

Shen Mingzhu's face turned cold as she pulled down her sleeves to cover the bracelet on her wrist.

"What's the harm in lending it to your sister-in-law for a couple of days? Are you going to lose a piece of flesh?"

"I might not lose a piece of flesh, but the bracelet will be like throwing a meat bun to a dog, gone for good."
