039 The Mo Family's Heirloom 2
But never mind. Just like my daughter-in-law said, from now on, this child belongs to the Mo family. The Mo family will definitely protect her and will not let anyone hurt her, a member of the Mo family.
As the old man pondered, he rummaged through the chests and cabinets like a treasure hunter, and finally brought out the item.
He carefully placed the sandalwood and camphor wood box on the table, then gestured to Chu Jiuyue as if the box were a rare treasure that needed to be passed on in the most solemn way.
This surprised Chu Jiuyue. Pointing to herself, she hesitated and asked, "For me?"
"Yes, here you go, but..."
Grandpa Mo seemed to have anticipated her reaction and did not offer any further explanation. He simply gestured for her to pick up the box again, as if it contained a huge secret waiting for her to uncover.
This left Chu Jiuyue frozen in place, as if she were a statue, completely at a loss.
She never imagined that so soon after her marriage, her husband would give her such a big surprise, a surprise that was like a lightning bolt, piercing through the confusion in her heart.
She began to consider whether she should stay here or leave decisively.
[Host, you cannot leave. You must understand that in this era, without a letter of introduction, you are like a bird with its wings bound, unable to fly. Moreover, wherever you go, as long as you are a woman, countless eyes will be watching you like hungry wolves, even attempting to devour you. You should understand this, host.]
The system's words were not alarmist, but a harsh reality.
Moreover, he was counting on the host to save his life, so how could he possibly let the host leave so easily?
Of course, even if the host really leaves, as long as he stays with him, he can carry out rescue operations anywhere.
However, staying by this man's side is undoubtedly the safest choice.
Moreover, he could deeply feel that by staying by this man's side, his strength was like a bamboo shoot breaking through the soil in spring, growing slowly but steadily.
Although this growth is as slow as a snail's arduous crawl on a long journey, it is a real phenomenon.
Therefore, for whatever reason, the host must not be allowed to have such a dangerous thought.
Knowing what Chu Jiuyue was thinking, Mo Wenchen was about to speak when he caught sight of Chu Jiuyue carefully picking up the box as if it were a rare treasure, gently opening it, and when she saw a bracelet inside, her eyes flashed with a dazzling light like a shooting star streaking across the sky.
Chu Jiuyue took out the bracelet and examined it carefully; the bracelet emitted a warm luster.
"What's so special about this bracelet?" she asked softly.
Mo Wenchen approached, his gaze also falling on the bracelet. "Legend has it that it contains a mysterious power that can protect the Mo family. I don't know exactly what it is."
At that moment, a sudden commotion arose outside.
Mo Wenchen became alert. "It seems those people who covet the treasure have returned."
Chu Jiuyue gripped the bracelet tightly and followed Mo Wenchen out to investigate.
A group of villagers were standing in the courtyard, arguing about something. This made Mo Wenchen frown warily, and he did not let his guard down.
The men in black stood outside the courtyard. The leader sneered, "The Mo family's treasure, it's time to hand it over today."
Mo Wenchen stood in front of Chu Jiuyue, saying, "You stay in the room, I'll go out and take a look."
Before Chu Jiuyue could respond, Mo Wenchen walked out of the room and closed the door slightly.
