Legitimate Daughter: Encounter Devil Prince - C186

Although the Great Zhou Empire did not have any specific rules or regulations, it was still a popular place for high-ranking officials and nobles like the capital city to receive gifts.

Every time the family’s elders celebrated their birthday, they would always do the same thing.

This wasn’t a gift from the guests, but a gift prepared by the younger generation. They used this gift to show that their children were filial, that their families were harmonious, and that they had deep financial resources. They prepared gifts that were worth thousands of gold, and even used this opportunity to show off their deep financial resources in front of everyone.

The madame had not been in the capital for many years, but she had not forgotten this rule.

Hearing An Lingyi talk about this, she knew that she was rushing him.

She looked at the crowd’s expression with a smile on her face and readily agreed.

“Alright, Little Ge, take out the things you prepared and let Grandmother have a look.”

An Lingge nodded, her bright and beautiful face was only filled with a gentle and peaceful look, there was nothing unusual about her.

She stretched out her hand to beckon him, and Bi Zhu, who was standing behind her, quickly came over and bent down to listen to her young miss’s instructions.

The Aunt Li and her daughter changed their gazes and saw the same excitement and anticipation in each other’s eyes.

When Bi Zhu slowly walked out of the hall, she suddenly brought out a small tray of golden crabapple blossoms. Aunt Li and An Lingyi’s expressions immediately changed.

According to the news from Lan Xin, An Lingge had prepared a statue of the Buddha with the warm jade forehead of Lan Tian for the madame. It was placed in a box, but the jade bead held up the plate.

What went wrong?

Aunt Li had a bad premonition, her heart was in a mess, but under these circumstances, he could not do anything, she could only watch Bi Zhu take off the red silk cloth on her plate.

“Oh? “What is this?”

There was a lady in the crowd who asked this question. An Lingge then smiled shyly, “This is a hundred years old map I drew. I hope Grandmother can live a long life safely.”

Bi Zhu took that thing down, and everyone could see that it was a painting. When she opened up the scroll, a pitch black Danqing slowly opened up for everyone to see.

An Lingge’s mind was extremely clever, she used those small words to make the largest longevity character. The word “longevity” spread from the mountain and river in the painting as if it had turned from a landscape painting to a calligraphy character, or even a life word that had transformed into a mountain and river. There were even flowers, birds, plants, and plants on it, which made people feel that it was extremely astonishing.

“This painting is wonderful!”

No one knew who exclaimed, but the ladies started to praise An Lingge one after another.

The old lady’s eyes were filled with laughter, but her mouth was still filled with humble words, “If you keep praising her, Little Ge this girl will probably show off how she is praised by you all in front of an old granny like me.”

Even though she said so, the madame did not sound displeased. Instead, it was because they were close that she was made fun of.

It seemed that the young lady had already won the madame’s favor.

This thought flashed across the minds of the various madams, but they didn’t show it on the surface.

However, the sunbathing ceremony had already begun, so naturally, it had to proceed in order.

An Lingge was the oldest person in the Duke Palace, and behind her was An Linghao.

However, he was currently in the East District, so the madame gestured for the servants to bring out his gift.

Finally, it was An Lingyi’s turn. An Lingge slightly raised her chin, and revealed a contemptuous smile towards An Lingge.

Even if An Lingge did not give the Buddha statue to the old lady, her congratulatory gift was still not comparable to the gift that she had meticulously prepared.

An Lingyi was filled with confidence, and ordered the servant beside her to bring the things that she had prepared.

The maidservant’s movements were also fast. In a short while, she returned with a box in her arms.

The things she had prepared were not in here!

When An Lingyi saw the unfamiliar box, her eyelids twitched and an ominous premonition arose. She couldn’t help but have a bad guess and anxiously looked towards Aunt Li for help.

The Aunt Li only sent Gu nanny to help An Lingyi design the An Lingge, she did not know what kind of congratulatory gift her daughter had prepared for the old lady, and after receiving her daughter’s instructions, she did not understand what she meant, and did not dare make any small movements in front of so many people.

“Open the box and take a look.” The madame’s expression was one of happiness, and one could tell that she was in a good mood.

Before the two of them could come up with a countermeasure, the madame had already spoken. The maidservant immediately opened the box in her hands, revealing a Buddha statue inside.

Indeed!

An Lingyi’s face immediately became pale. From the moment An Lingge took out the congratulatory gift that was the Buddha statue, she should have noticed it, but she had thought that this person had changed it back then.

This must be An Lingge’s doing!

An Lingyi glared at An Lingge fiercely, her eyes were fierce, if her gaze could turn into a blade, An Lingge would have died thousands of times over.

However, no matter how resentful he was, An Lingyi couldn’t just do nothing and allow An Lingge to scheme against her.

She did her best to restore the charming and innocent smile on her face. With a clear and melodious voice, she said, “Grandmother, why did this maid bring this box up? The congratulatory gift that my granddaughter prepared isn’t inside.”

The old mistress’ amiable expression froze for a moment before returning to normal. However, there was an unavoidable coldness in her eyes. “Oh, the maidservant by your side took the wrong gift? You’ll have to punish her when you get back. ”

She said that she wanted to punish the servant, but the old mistress was already dissatisfied with An Lingyi.

She should have prepared the wedding gift long ago. She only said that it was the wrong one when she brought it out in front of everyone, didn’t she take it seriously?

Even if the old lady already knew that An Lingyi did not mean anything to her, for her to make such a mistake was embarrassing the old lady.

The good thing was that Aunt Li realized that something was wrong and immediately smiled to smooth things over, “Yi Er is really mischievous, she even wanted to play tricks to tease us. When we return, I will properly manage her character.”

With just a few words, Aunt Li had caused an accident to her daughter. She said that she had specially planned it for the madame and that it was due to her childishness, she wanted to take this opportunity to get some fun.

Regardless of whether the crowd believed her words, the madame’s face was no longer as unsightly as it had been before.

An Lingyi heaved a sigh of relief, just as she was about to let the servant girl leave, she saw that the servant had unknowingly taken the Buddha statue into her hands.

Just as they were talking, the Buddha statue’s eyes that were filled with smiles, started bleeding.

“Heavens, what is going on!”

Madam Wang cried out in alarm, and his body fell backwards. Fortunately, the servant girl beside her had been quick enough to support her, otherwise, if she were to fall down like this, the child in her stomach would not be able to be preserved.
