The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability
Chapter 79 Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet: Auspicious Bet
Then came gasps of surprise. What did they see? A luminous pearl bigger than a pigeon's egg? A pearl bigger than a cat's eye? And a whole box of them, dozens of them, right?
What a grand gesture! No wonder the old lady had to play with it privately. It must be incredibly enviable. Even the royal family doesn't have such a grand gesture.
The old lady was also shocked. Although she received various birthday gifts every year, this was the first time she had received such a valuable one. No wonder Madam Xiao had let her play with it in private. It was all Liu Siwan's fault. This was undoubtedly bringing hatred to the Mo family! She secretly blamed the mother and daughter for being so ignorant!
Mo Liuyun was very satisfied with the shocked expressions of everyone in the hall. These ancient bumpkins, let me show you the products of future technology, and I'll blow your mind! The key point is that they're not only good-looking, but also very cheap, haha!
Seeing that she had not achieved her goal of embarrassing the First Madam and her daughter, Liu Siwan tightened her grip on the handkerchief and forced a smile, saying, "The First Madam is truly generous!"
“As children, we should put our hearts into celebrating our mother’s birthday. We can’t just keep using the excuse of ‘it’s a small gift but the sentiment is deep’ to just embroider a picture or buy a decorative item, can we? Aunt Liu, don’t you think so?”
Xiao chuckled, glancing meaningfully at the Guanyin statue and the painting of a hundred longevity symbols.
Mo Liuyun silently gave his mother a thumbs up in his heart. He never expected that his mother, who used to be so gentle and indifferent to worldly affairs, would have such explosive fighting power now! It seems that he really doesn't need to worry about his mother anymore. Dealing with these people and things is child's play for her!
Liu Siwan could only force a smile and say, "Madam is right. The sun is shining brightly right now, and a banquet has been set up in the garden, along with a poetry and talent show." She turned to the guests and bowed, saying, "Please, distinguished guests, move to the garden for the banquet and to enjoy the flowers."
Xiao Shi also gestured for everyone to follow, and led by Xiao Shi and Mo Liuyun, they headed towards the garden.
Today, the garden is filled with chrysanthemums of various varieties, including Yao Huang, Lv Yun, Mo Ju, and Jin Gou, totaling over a hundred kinds. A gentle breeze carries the fragrance of chrysanthemums, their beauty vying for attention, rivaling even modern chrysanthemum exhibitions! Everyone praised them highly.
Suddenly someone suggested, "How can we not compose poetry in this setting? Why don't we all compose some poems?"
"it is good!"
"As it should be!"
"A beautiful scene deserves a beautiful poem!"
Then, the green tea Mo Zhixia came online again: "Everyone, why don't you let my eldest sister go first? I've been studying everyone's works diligently lately, and I'm sure she'll offer something refreshing, right, eldest sister?"
Upon hearing Mo Zhixia's words, some people expressed disdain, some sneered, and some nodded in agreement, even those who didn't understand.
Mo Liuyun: Good heavens, these schemes and plots are like an old sow wearing a bra, one after another! But we'll deal with whatever comes our way. It's just poetry. Even elementary school students in the 21st century know the Three Hundred Tang Poems. Who's afraid of who? Which of the Poet Saint's or the Poet Immortal's poems isn't a classic?
Mo Liuyun smiled and said, "Sister's reputation as a good-for-nothing is already well-known. Since my younger sister thinks so highly of me, I cannot let her down."
Today is my grandmother's birthday. I may not have done a great job, but consider it a way to entertain her. I'm just offering my humble opinion to inspire others! However, since it's a poetry competition, shouldn't there be some auspicious symbolism? Don't you all agree?
"Gentlemen and ladies present, how about contributing a prize from your person?" With that, he concealed himself with his wide sleeves and bought a transparent bead the size of a pigeon egg from the spatial shop. The bead had a flower in the center!
Everyone stared in shock at the transparent sphere in Mo Liuyun's hand, wondering what it was, and they all cast questioning glances at Mo Liuyun.
Mo Liuyun smiled gently: "This item was purchased by my maternal grandfather from an overseas merchant by chance. It is called a crystal ball and is worth a fortune! Whoever wins the first prize in the poetry competition today will receive this item as my prize!"
When Nangong Li saw Mo Liuyun take out the crystal ball, an image flashed through his mind: a group of children digging a hole in the ground, pressing their index fingers against their thumbs, and flicking the ball into the hole together—all toys for children! His eyes twitched involuntarily.
He didn't understand why he could even guess the next line of the dishes Mo Liuyun made, the things she brought out, and the poems she composed! He felt that this might be a predestined fate, not only in this life, but perhaps in a past life they were people who lived together, and were very important people in each other's lives!
Some people, arrogant and proud, were unwilling to compete with a young woman in poetry and prose, feeling it was beneath their dignity. But when Mo Liuyun took out that crystal ball, all those haughty thoughts went to hell.
Everyone had only one goal: to obtain this crystal ball, a treasure that could be passed down through generations!
Mo Liuyun brought this out because he understood these people's psychology. Just like modern gambling, those who always think they will win often end up losing! Looking at these people with their eyes shining as they stared at his glass marbles, Mo Liuyun couldn't help but smile as he thought about how he could openly make some extra money today.
Nangong Chun was stunned. She had never seen Mo Liuyun so composed and dignified. Wearing a veil, her eyebrows were like distant mountains and her eyes were like a starry river, which attracted people unconsciously!
Nangong Li watched as Nangong Chun stared intently at Mo Liuyun, her hands gripping the wheelchair so tightly it creaked.
Qingyang suddenly felt the air around him drop several degrees. He looked at his master staring at Nangong Chun and saw the wheelchair under his hand creaking.
Qingyang quickly stepped forward: "Master, this is made of wood. Please calm down. I think those people are the ones who are at a disadvantage!"
Upon hearing this, Nangong Li released the armrest of the wheelchair, took off the jade pendant from his waist, and handed it to Qingyang: "This is my prize."
Qingyang was shocked: "Your Highness! No! This was given to you by the Empress, who said it was for the future princess! What if Miss Mo loses?!"
Nangong Li: "I believe her!"
Seeing that Nangong Li had taken off his personal jade pendant as a prize, everyone was even less hesitant! They all took out prizes from their bodies or heads, one after another, very enthusiastically! Nangong Chun also took out a jade pendant from his purse, and Lian'er held a tray of prizes, smiling from ear to ear.
Lian'er: Miss is so smart, Miss will definitely win. All these good things belong to the young ladies, I'm so happy!
Mo Liuyun sighed, "This girl doesn't even know how to be discreet! She acts like all of this is hers for the taking! What if someone sees through her?!"
Mo Liuyun looked at Mo Zhixia and said, "Sister, you are a talented woman listed on the list in Beili City. Aren't you going to participate? After all, I'm a good-for-nothing. If you don't participate, our Mo family is doomed to lose today!"
Lian'er, with her keen eye, stood in front of Mo Zhixia: "Second Miss?"
She had dressed up carefully today to attract everyone's attention, and her jewelry was a complete set. Seeing everyone staring at her, she could only force a smile and take off the jade bracelet from her wrist: "Sister is joking. Of course, I will participate!"
Although Madam Xiao did not know what Mo Liuyun was planning, she had unconditional faith in her daughter. Even if she lost, they could afford to lose. Moreover, judging from Yun'er's calm and confident demeanor, she knew that her daughter would not lose!
