Chapter 37
The dinner party is coming soon, and Liu Xiran is about to bring the birthday gift to the front hall, but she doesn't want Se'er to rush over in a panic, with a flustered expression, "Miss, Miss..."

"What's wrong?" Liu Xiran raised an eyebrow.

"Miss... birthday birthday..." Se'er took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions, and then said tremblingly, "Shouli Ruyi and Jixiang have been completely changed."

"Unrecognizable? What do you mean by that?" Liu Xiran followed her to the gift box where auspicious wishes were placed, and took a look inside. Sure enough, the two white radishes that Zhuer had originally carved were so delicate that they could not be more delicate. Crushed, unsightly.

"I checked carefully last night that it was intact, but now..." Se'er couldn't believe it.

"Our birthday gift..." Mian'er rubbed her hands back and forth in dismay.

Liu Xiran remained silent, staring at the plate of destroyed birthday presents, the note from Xing Nuan floated in his mind: Be careful of those around you.

My heart couldn't help shaking.

It must have been done by one of the maids, for no one could enter the inner room except them.This indisputable fact made Liu Xiran feel uncomfortable, she suddenly felt that a wall was erected around her to trap herself inside, and the sky should not be called the earth.

"Forget it, miss took out a piece of jewelry that you like to replace it temporarily." Zhu'er was the first to break the silence.

"Well, you can choose Mian'er." Liu Xiran said, turned and walked out of the room.

When we arrived in the courtyard, there were red lanterns everywhere, beaming with joy. Mrs. Liu and Liu Yun stood side by side, talking from time to time, while Liu Yanran was dressed in a very happy manner, and her red dress was very eye-catching. If others didn’t know it, they would think it was her today. What about the birthday?Liu Xiran stood still, and Mian'er leaned into her ear and said, "Miss, I chose a gold necklace, a long life lock, which means longevity and wealth. I don't know if it will work..."

"It's over now." Liu Xiran nodded.

At this time, Liu Yanran had already seen Liu Xiran with sharp eyes, and walked over proudly, "You are finally here."

"The luncheon hasn't started yet, so it's not too late, my little sister." Liu Xiran smiled and looked her up and down, "Third sister is really happy today."

"It's natural. It's my mother's birthday, so I naturally want to be happy." Liu Yanran raised her proud chin, "There will be many dignitaries coming to celebrate my mother's birthday in the evening. Everyone knows that today is the birthday of Mrs. Liu's wife. no?"

Liu Yanran's words were full of sarcasm, she was proud that she was the main wife's daughter, Liu Xiran could still hear this, she secretly swore in her heart that one day she would not be so proud, but now... "Third Sister indeed."

"Yo, Xi'er is here too, come over here." As the saying goes, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Liu Yun greeted Liu Xiran with a smile, and Liu Xiran immediately stepped forward with a smile, called him daddy sweetly, and then respected Mrs. Liu Greetings, "Xi'er is here to wish my mother a happy birthday, good luck and good luck, every year there will be today, and every year will have today."

Liu Yun nodded with satisfaction, liking this more and more sensible and sweet-talking daughter more and more.Mrs. Liu nodded, "Okay, okay."

Immediately afterwards, Bai Xuezi and the others came out of their rooms and rushed over one after another.The luncheon is a family reunion celebration, so there is no need to see outsiders, it looks very close and the atmosphere is harmonious.

Dong'er presented colorful colored glaze beads, which caught everyone's attention. You must know that these colorful colored glaze beads were rare items that Liu Yun entrusted someone to bring back from the Western Regions two years ago, and they have been kept in the study. Anyone who touches it will emit different colors at night, which is very radiant and very beautiful.Never thought that Liu Yun brought this rare treasure to Dong'er.

"Master and I decided to give it away together." Dong'er should have been shy and sweet when she said this, but she couldn't hide her reluctance. This reaction was a bit strange.

Liu Xiran saw the complex expression of envy and loss on her mother's face, but Mrs. Liu did not have the embarrassment she imagined, but expressed her liking, "Oh, it's really a rare and rare treasure. cut love."

"Happy birthday." Liu Yun was also very gentle to Mrs. Liu.

Seeing this, Bai Xuezi put away the disappointment on her face, and motioned Xian'er to give the longevity garment, "Sister, this is the longevity garment I asked Su Xiuxiu to embroider. I hope you will live forever, and I hope you will like it."

Everyone looked at the countless longevity characters on it, and gasped in amazement.

Mrs. Liu signaled to her mother to accept it, and sighed softly pretending to be distressed, "Oh, sister, you are pregnant, why bother to work so hard, in fact, my birthday is nothing important, it is just a birthday, as long as the master Being healthy and safe with my sisters is the greatest gift to me."

What was said in this scene was really high-sounding, Liu Yun was very happy to hear it, and everyone pretended to benefit a lot, nodding their heads in agreement.Suddenly Liu Yanran's eyes fell on Liu Xiran, and she asked, "I wonder what birthday gift Sister Xi'er has prepared."

Just as Liu Xiran was about to speak, Bai Xuezi, who didn't know that things had changed, answered, "Oh, sister, Xier has a very delicate gift for you."

Mrs. Liu couldn't help being curious, "Oh, really? Then I want to take a look."

Bai Xuezi signaled Liu Xiran to take it out quickly. "Xi'er, hurry up."

"..." Mother, mother, do you know that you have brought this up to this point, what should I do in the future...

Liu Yanran also urged, "Sister, quickly take it out, I'm curious too."

An ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her parents-in-law, so there is no point in hiding it like this, so Liu Xiran simply asked Mian'er to offer it, "Mother, this is a longevity lock. I hope you live a long and boundless life."

Under Bai Xuezi's slightly embarrassed expression, Liu Yanran burst out laughing, "Is this my sister's new idea?"

Although everyone didn't say anything, they all covered their mouths and smiled. Among so many gifts, the one she gave was the most vulgar and the least thoughtful.Liu Xiran waited unhurriedly for everyone to finish laughing, and said unhurriedly, "As my mother said just now, in fact, the most ordinary happiness is that the family is around, healthy and healthy, and birthday gifts don't need to be innovative, as long as The wish to bless my mother is the best birthday gift."

Liu Yun nodded, and spoke to Liu Xiran, "Well, I think Xi'er's long life lock is very beautiful. Ma'am, you must wear it even more beautifully. Wear this for the dinner."

"...Yes, master." Mrs. Liu smiled awkwardly, took the longevity lock, glared at Liu Xiran from the corner of her eye, feeling faintly unhappy, this girl was prevaricated by a few coquettish tricks!

Liu Yanran's eyes widened even more angrily, seeing Liu Xiran rescued herself from the dangerous cliff, her heart felt like a volcano erupted, damn it, something bad happened.

The luncheon was like this, and it passed happily.

Everyone went back to the room to take a nap, but Liu Xiran couldn't fall asleep. She looked at Mian'er, Se'er, and Zhu'er standing side by side in front of her, feeling mixed emotions in her heart.It stands to reason that she should not have this kind of meeting and there is no need to hold such a meeting, but now that something happened, she had to do so...

"I think, you must have guessed what I'm going to say." After hesitating for a while, Liu Xiran said.

"The birthday ceremony was destroyed." Mian'er nodded.

"People inside and outside cannot enter." Liu Xiran clicked.

The three people looked at each other, and no one spoke first, which was a very emotional thing.

Liu Xiran naturally expected such a scene, and she said again, "Man, no one has made mistakes. You have been with me for more than three years, and you are as close as sisters. I don't want anyone to betray me and sisters. But everyone I have aspirations, but I can't force it. No matter who it is, I will see that I will not pursue my previous relationship and let her go. It is the last bit of love. I put the bottle outside on the pansy lace , Whoever did it, admitted it, put it in a vase, and I will put the silver in it. I will give you three days to think about it."

"Miss……"

"Miss……"

"Miss……"

"Don't be afraid, but you don't need to lie anymore." Liu Xiran stood up, "This is my last request to you."

With that said, she went into the back room and lay on the bed with all her clothes on.To be honest, she was also afraid, afraid that these three days would pass, afraid of seeing someone's mistake admitting note in the bottle, or not.No matter what kind of situation it is, she has imagined it and is unwilling to face it.

Sister Xingnuan, I hope you are wrong.

Mrs. Liu's room.

Behind the screen, Mrs. Liu was sitting, and Dong'er was sitting beside her. Mrs. Liu took a sip of her tea, and saw that Dong'er hesitated to speak.

"Just tell me what you have." Mrs. Liu said quietly.

"I want to go to Fahua Temple tomorrow, I wonder if I can..." Dong'er's voice gradually weakened, and even she couldn't hear her.

"Why?" Madam Liu pretended not to know.

"I just want to go again tomorrow..." Dong'er trembled, her eyelids kept twitching, and Chang Gui's letters were frequent, and she tried her best to avoid him and avoid troubles.

"The master loves you so much, why would he let you out of the mansion? But if you want the master's love to continue, I advise you to go to the Fahua Temple as soon as possible to pray for the blessing of the Bodhisattva." Mrs. Liu looked dignified and cold.

Seeing Mrs. Liu's sharp eyes, Dong'er knew that it was useless to talk too much. It was impossible for Mrs. Liu to change her mind. Regarding today's birthday gift, Mrs. Liu deliberately asked her to give colorful glazed beads in front of everyone, because she wanted her to be The target of everyone's criticism, let her firmly rely on and obey her.

Now it is thorough, one step at a time.

Mrs. Liu saw Dong'er's contradictory thoughts, and said calmly, "People, the reason why there are grades, high and low, is because some people are smart and understand current affairs, and some people pretend to be smart. Yingxin will end up harming others and herself in the Han Dynasty. Sister Dong'er, since you knew how to climb up when you were a slave, you should be smarter when you become a concubine, because half-hearted will be struck by lightning."

While speaking, there was a sudden roar of thunder outside.

Dong'er was so taken aback that she almost fell off her seat.Mrs. Liu glanced at Dong'er coldly, secretly happy in her heart, look, even God helped her.Seeing this, Yu's mother went forward to serve hot soup, and seeing the pale Dong'er, she said slowly, "Fifth Aunt, Madam really wants to help you, tell me about who is in charge and who can help you in this huge mansion." Can it protect you to give birth to this Liu family's child safely?"
