Chapter 78 Chrysanthemum Appreciation Feast as a Gift
Mo Liuyun chuckled, "What a perfect understanding!" "Mother, these are just some beads forged by hand. They're not worth much, but to outsiders, they're quite rare. In any case, we have to save face."
Madam Xiao took the pearl and examined it carefully, but she couldn't tell if it was real or fake. However, she trusted her daughter, so she had someone take the two items to the front hall to wait for everyone to arrive before presenting them as gifts.
She led Mo Liuyun to the main gate to greet the guests. A banquet was being held at the manor today, and as the matriarch, she was to greet the guests at the gate as a sign of respect. The male guests were received by Mo Liujin Wushuang and the steward.
Upon arriving at the door, Liu Siwan and her daughter were also there. This time, the two were quite sensible and obediently stepped forward to greet them! They helped to greet the ladies and young women they knew, creating a harmonious scene among the concubines!
Lady Wang, the Minister of War, and her son have arrived! With a shout...
"Madam Wang and Young Master Wang are here to enjoy the chrysanthemum banquet. The old lady will surely be delighted!" Madam Xiao stepped forward, and the elders and younger generations of both sides exchanged greetings.
"I see that my sister's health has improved a lot now. She looks younger than before!" Madam Wang said with a smile, holding Xiao's hand.
Young Master Wang also looked at Mo Liuyun, only to see that Mo Liuyun was wearing a veil, her beautiful eyes were sparkling, and her expression was no longer as timid as before, as if she had become a different person.
"Hello, Miss Mo, it's been a long time." Wang Ziwen stepped forward to greet her. Mo Liuyun smiled and returned the greeting: "Hello, Young Master Wang, it's been a long time. I hope you are well."
Mo Liuyun had a slight impression of this young master Wang. At the previous gathering, everyone took pleasure in mocking her, but this young master Wang never took advantage of her misfortune. On one occasion, he even spoke up to defend her. He was gentle, refined, and upright.
"Sister, please come inside quickly. Someone, please invite Madam Wang to the main hall for tea!" Madam Xiao instructed.
"The Minister of Rites' wife and son, Mr. Li, have arrived!"
"Princess Anyang, Young Master Liu has arrived!"
Mo Liuyun was delighted to hear that the Minister of Rites, Young Master Wang, and Princess Liu of Anyang had arrived. "It's good that they're both here," he thought. He had just finished instructing his servant to lead the group to the main hall.
A voice announced, "His Highness the Prince of Qing has arrived."
Even though Lady Xiao disliked Nangong Chun, he was still a prince, so she led everyone forward to pay their respects.
Nangong Chun raised her hand to signal everyone to rise and dispense with formalities, but her gaze fell on Mo Liuyun next to Xiao Shi. Looking at Mo Liuyun, she saw that the girl in front of her was wearing a light green flowing fairy dress, and a butterfly gold hairpin was pinned to her flying fairy bun. The butterfly seemed to be about to take flight.
Mo Liuyun knew that Nangong Chun was looking him over, so he didn't deliberately lower his head. He simply performed the greeting in an ordinary manner and stood beside Xiao Shi.
Seeing this scene from a distance, Mo Zhixia couldn't help but want to go forward. Just as she was about to lift her foot, a hand grabbed her and pulled her to her side.
Liu Siwan warned, "Don't forget what happened today. Everyone thinks we came here to find a confidant. Be patient. Even if the Prince of Qing treats you the same as always, you should still act as if you are looking for someone else."
Men are all the same; they only value what they can't have! Food tastes best when everyone's fighting over it; they only cherish something after they've lost it!
Upon hearing Liu Siwan's words, Mo Zhixia forcibly restrained herself from stepping forward and turned to walk towards Young Master Liu, who had come over to chat earlier. Sure enough, after Nangong Li finished looking at Mo Liuyun, he did not see Mo Zhixia step forward, but instead saw Mo Zhixia talking and laughing with the second son of Princess Anyang.
Nangong Chun frowned. Everyone in Beili City knew that Mo Liuyun was obsessed with him, while he was in love with Mo Zhixia. Now, these two sisters were ignoring his existence. One was arrogant and the other was chatting happily with another man! Where did they put him?!
Nangong Chun looked up and, through the thin veil, saw Mo Liuyun's lips curl into a smile, seemingly mocking him. Nangong Chun took a step forward, intending to tear off Mo Liuyun's veil. However, a piece of broken silver struck the back of his hand, causing Nangong Chun to wince in pain and withdraw his hand. Mo Liuyun seized the opportunity to retreat!
Nangong Chun turned around and looked in the direction from which the silver had flown. She saw Qingyang pushing a wheelchair slowly towards the gate. A person was sitting in the wheelchair, wearing a dark brocade robe with dark patterns and a half-silver mask covering his face.
Nangong Li's lips curled up, his tone light and teasing: "What's wrong, Fourth Prince? Long time no see, have you forgotten the royal rules again? Pulling off a young lady's veil in public? Isn't that a bit too impolite? Should I teach you a lesson?"
Upon seeing this, everyone knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "May Your Highness, the Prince of Pingnan, be well!"
Nangong Qing had no choice but to step forward and bow: "Greetings, Third Imperial Brother. What brings you here to admire the flowers in Modi today?"
Nangong Li told everyone to rise, then looked up at Nangong Chun, his voice icy: "What? Do I need to report to you where I'm going?"
“Brother, that’s not what I meant!” Nangong Chun hurriedly said.
"Not the best." Turning to Lady Xiao, he said gently, "I heard that there is a black chrysanthemum at today's chrysanthemum banquet. I wonder if I would have the honor of seeing it?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Xiao was slightly surprised. It was rumored that after Prince Pingnan was poisoned, he rarely left the mansion. Why did he come to the mansion today? Was he really just here to see the chrysanthemums?
But she still stepped forward with a smile: "It is a blessing for the black chrysanthemum to be seen by Your Highness! Your Highness, please first attend the ceremony in the main hall and rest for a while before going to the garden to admire the flowers!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady came out to greet them personally. Upon hearing that the Prince of Pingnan had graced the Mo residence with his presence, who would dare not come out to greet him?
Before the old lady could bow, Nangong Li raised his hand to stop her: "Today is the old lady's birthday, there is no need for such formalities. This is my gift!" Behind him, Qingyang took the gift box from the guards and handed it to the old lady's maid.
Qingyang pushed Nangong Li in front, the old lady lagged half a step behind, and the rest of the group followed closely behind, arriving at the main hall.
The old lady invited Nangong Li and Nangong Qing to take the seats of honor, but Nangong Li politely declined, citing the old lady's birthday. Nangong Qing also declined as a junior.
The old lady had no choice but to sit in the head seat, but looking at Nangong Li, she felt that the seat was a little too hot.
Next came the presentation of gifts. When Madam Xiao saw that Liu Siwan and her daughter were presenting a painting of a hundred longevity symbols and a jade Guanyin, her gaze turned cold. It was exactly the same as what she had prepared. Fortunately, Yun'er had changed the gift today, otherwise she and Yun'er would have been a laughing stock!
When it was Xiao's turn to present her gift, Liu Siwan smiled and said, "I wonder what gift Madam has prepared? We are truly looking forward to it!"
Mo Liuyun beckoned to Mo Liujin, and the three of them stepped forward. Mo Liuyun took the gift box from Lian'er's hands: "Grandmother, although the gifts we prepared are not as light as Aunt Liu's but heavy with sentiment, Mother started preparing for this congratulatory gift half a year ago. It was not easy to get these good things. This is a gift with great sentiment."
Liu Siwan sneered inwardly. Good stuff? She had just presented the gift and seen the surprise and anger in the First Madam's eyes. Today, she was going to make them a laughing stock.
So he stepped forward and said, "Madam, you prepare such exquisite gifts every year. Why don't you let us all see them?"
The old lady smiled and nodded, and Madam Xiao did not stop her anymore, but the coldness in her eyes intensified. Liu Siwan gestured for the maid to step forward and open the boxes, but when the two boxes were opened, everyone present widened their eyes in disbelief.
