Madam Liu repeatedly waved her hand, "Such expensive items, I really cannot accept them, please take them back."
But Muniang immediately put on a stern face, "Auntie, are you treating me like an outsider? Today I received your handkerchief, and the embroidery is so exquisitely crafted that it's beyond compare— I'm truly touched and feel that you're sincere towards me. Now if I offer the children some snacks, you push them away?"
Madam Liu stood there stiffly, uncertain whether to return the pastries in her hands or not.
Muniang turned to Tianniu with a smile, "This time your sister brought some snacks for you to enjoy, but there won't be any next time."
These words were clearly meant to placate Madam Liu, who, with no alternative, sighed and accepted the gift, "Muniang, you child are really—"
Muniang laughed, "Children learn their lessons after being scolded; there's no need to take it so seriously. Besides, they are growing and need to eat well to develop properly."
