"What's the matter? Sister Xian, tell me." Xie Songlin asked hurriedly.

"Wan Ning, what are you going to do?" asked Mrs. Xie.

It was obvious that Guan was not going to survive.

She was involved in what happened back then, so her death did not deserve it.

But how should Xie Wan Ning deal with it?

She has been growing up in the Xie family. Now her status is different. If they want to kill her directly, after all, they have raised her for so many years.

And this matter cannot be known to outsiders.

Even if you say it, it will make people laugh.

The Xie family was plotted against like this, and had to raise the daughter of a beggar and refugee as a treasure. If this were to get out, it would really become the laughing stock of the entire capital.

But if we send the person away, where should we send him to?

Even if she is sent to the farm now, everyone will think she is not worthy!

Besides, if we keep her, who knows what she will do in the future. If we want to avenge our mother, even if we don't have to be afraid of her at all, keeping her will still be disgusting.

Xie Songlin's eyes grew colder, and he said to Madam Xie, "Of course you should stay in the mansion and let the servants take good care of you."

When Mrs. Xie heard this, her brows darkened and she frowned, looking at Xie Songlin in confusion. Her face was already a little unhappy and she was about to get angry.

"What do you mean?" Mrs. Xie suppressed the anger in her chest and glanced at Xie Songlin coldly.

There was a hint of anger in his eyes, and there was a hint of an explosion.

Xie Songlin didn't dare to keep it a secret and said quickly, "Madam, don't worry. I'm worried even if you let him go."

"Stay by my side, and feel at ease with him under my nose."

Xie Songlin's eyes grew colder as he spoke of this. "After some time, when things are clear, we'll announce to the public that she's not in good health... Let her take care of herself for a while. How long can someone with poor health live?"

Mrs. Xie's eyes flashed, and she instantly understood what was going on.

This was to make Xie Wan concentrate without anyone noticing and not be in Xie's house.

Mrs. Xie bit her lip and looked at Xie Songlin: "After all, you've kept her by your side for so many years, are you willing to let her go?"

Xie Songlin said coldly: "She is a scheming person, not innocent at all."

"Even if you educated her in the past, her personality was such that she wanted to imitate the one in the palace and act noble."

"The one I'm learning doesn't look like him. Not to mention that he's not my biological child, even if he is, I can't keep him."

Mrs. Xie couldn't help but nodded. What Xie Songlin said was right.

She did not educate Xie Wan Ning in this way, but Xie Wan Ning knew that the young lady in the Xie family was favored, so she subconsciously wanted to imitate her.

Mrs. Xie said, "If it was really your biological child, would you be willing to give it up?"

"Even if they are my biological children, I cannot keep them if they have such calculations."

Xie Songlin said: "Blood ties mean nothing in this situation."

"If you want to count it, it will hurt you and our daughter even more."

When Xie Songlin said this, his tone softened and he looked at Mrs. Xie with burning eyes.

Mrs. Xie's anger and resentment were much less at this moment.

This man did not let her down after all.

Seeing that Madam Xie didn't speak, Xie Songlin frowned and looked at Madam Xie with some worry: "Madam, you won't be soft-hearted, will you?"

After all, Xie Wan Ning has been by her side for so many years, if she is soft-hearted... that would be troublesome.

Madam Xie's face darkened. "How could I be soft-hearted? My Nan Yan has suffered so much, all because of them!"

"Xie Wan Ning is not innocent at all. She even wants to snatch the Seventh Prince away and make things difficult for our daughter."

Xie Songlin heaved a sigh of relief when she said this: "Madam is right. If that's the case... then I'll get busy. You should rest well and don't rush to get up."

"Ah."

Mrs. Xie nodded and lay down again.

Xie Songlin felt relieved, turned around and left.

As soon as Xie Songlin left, the expression on his face became cold again.

Ye Nanyue woke up before dawn.

Squatting in the dressing room, I was browsing the shopping list in the system mall and was in a dilemma.

There are several wooden boxes in front of me, all used to store things.

But she doesn't know what to pretend!

I didn’t care about it before, thinking that he was just my third brother’s teacher.

But it’s different now, he is her real grandfather now.

The birthday gift she prepares must be grand!

Also, we have to prepare a portion for the third brother as well.

This is a bit troublesome.

I have already given Mr. Xie a glass cup before. What should I give him now to attract his attention and become the most handsome guy in the crowd?

Giving a glass cup as a gift would be too risky and would arouse suspicion.

Pearl powder and skin care products are fine as gifts for female elders, but not for Mr. Xie...

Firstly, she couldn't afford or buy the famous paintings and masterpieces, and secondly, the famous people and paintings she recognized might not be recognized by the people here!

What to do?

Ye Nanyue scratched her head anxiously.

I barely slept last night.

Apart from preparing a beautiful birthday peach cake for Mr. Xie, she really couldn't think of anything else!

The medicine is not good, it's unlucky...

She was rummaging through it...and suddenly she came across the watch column!

Hey, that works!

Buy a mechanical watch!

At that time, we can call it a watch, not a clock.

Well……

Give him a pocket watch, which is more suitable for Mr. Xie’s style and status.

This must be very novel, they must have never seen it before!

Ok, Ok.

Ye Nanyue picked out a vintage copper pocket watch and spent 999 yuan on it, which was a huge expense!

Put it in the smallest wooden box and keep it away.

Then, I bought another set of vintage rice paper and put it in another box.

No matter how good the ancient Xuan paper was, it could not compare to modern craftsmanship.

Just consider this as a gift from the third brother, as it suits his status.

I guess my third brother has prepared some for himself, and with this rice paper, it’s just right.

She also bought some wild Changbai Mountain ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum.

The prices of these things online are not expensive, but they can easily fool the ancients.

After finally choosing the birthday gift, Ye Nanyue breathed a sigh of relief, put the things in order, and went to the kitchen to prepare the cake.

The cake base was baked last night, and she bought ready-made cream, molds, and edible spray paint directly from the system mall.

A twelve-inch big cake with several longevity peaches on it, which looks lifelike.

She also bought some accessories from the system to decorate it, and bought some Oreos to secretly pinch them into the cake base and sandwich them between the cream layer of the cake.

Just looking at this look is enough to fascinate people. Ye Nanyue believes that it will definitely steal the show!

After the cake was done, it was sealed and covered with a layer of cloth and placed on ice.

This thing is the largest and the most troublesome, so it must be handled properly and must not be dropped.

After finishing all this, Ye Nanyue went back to change her clothes and asked Huichun and Beizhi to dress her up.

She wanted to be festive today, but didn't want to be too ostentatious, so she wore a bright pink long skirt with a slightly lighter-colored long shirt of the same color.

This skirt is extremely well made, with gradient colors and layers of shading, which is very rare given the limited shading techniques in ancient times.

The slender waist is tied at the waist, which further highlights the layered color under the skirt. A thin and transparent long gown is draped over it, and the embroidery and colors inside are faintly visible, giving it an unreal beauty.

Bei Zhi had specially arranged this dress for her to wear today. He really had good taste: "Madam, you will definitely outshine all the other beauties today."
