Speaking of Gu Ronglan, Mu Shi thought of his daughter, his eyes turned a little red, and said, "Your eldest sister is gentle, virtuous and virtuous, and will not easily grudge with others, the bracelet is given to her, and nine times out of ten it will be shelved like her mother, and the bracelet will be handed over to you, and your mother will not let people cheat her, and if you encounter an assassin again, you will also have some strength to fight back." ”

On the day of Minglan's assassination, Mu regretted not handing over the bracelet to Minglan earlier, in case Young Master Chu didn't arrive in time, she would lose another daughter.

It was also on that day that Mu made up his mind to pass the bracelet to Minglan.

Minglan had red eyes and threw himself into Mu's arms.

Outside the bead curtain, Gu Shi opened the curtain and came in, and when he saw this, he said, "What's the matter?"

Mu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "When I think of Mrs. Tai, I can't help but feel a little sad." ”

Minglan stretched out his hand and said, "On my birthday, did my father prepare a gift for me?"

Gu Shi took out a brocade box from his arms, handed it to Ming Lan, and said with a smile, "How could Daddy miss your birthday gift?"

Minglan took the brocade box and opened it to take a look.

There is a purple hosta in the brocade box, which is exquisite and clear, and it is worth a lot of money at a glance.

Minglan likes it.

Seeing this, Mu also stretched out his hand, "What about mine?"

Gu She, "......." ”

Minglan celebrates her birthday, what does she want?

Mu Shi knew that there was no gift from her at a glance, and said angrily, "Yesterday I also said thank you for giving birth to a few good daughters, I thought I had a share." ”

Gu Shi couldn't cry or laugh, no matter how old he was, he was not afraid that his daughter would see a joke.

He glanced at Minglan, and Minglan got up and said, "Mother, I'll go first." ”

After saying that, he blessed his body indiscriminately, took the brocade box and flashed people.

As soon as she came out of the inner room, she saw Gu Xuelan who walked away from her and looked at her angrily.

These big stares couldn't be avoided, and Minglan walked over hard.

Seeing Gu Xuelan, Minglan looked at her bun and said with a smile, "Seventh Sister's hair seems to be much softer?"

Gu Xuelan puffed out her cheeks and said, "Don't think that if you say a few nice words, I won't be angry with you, you told me that egg whites can moisturize hair, why don't you tell egg whites that they will also become egg flowers, do you know how long I washed those egg flowers yesterday, and my hair has broken hundreds of roots!"

Thinking that so many maids and women knew about this and laughed at her behind her back, Gu Xuelan couldn't wait to go crazy.

Such an accusation, Minglan really feels very innocent, this is an unclear matter, if you don't ask a word, something will go wrong.

Fortunately, she has a birthday today, and she has to hold back if she is angry, otherwise she may not be able to withstand the trouble.

Gu Rulan came with her and said with a smile, "Although the egg white has turned into egg flower, the effect is really good, I will try it when I go back in a while." ”

When she said this, Gu Xuelan's anger disappeared by half, and she gave the gift she brought to Minglan.

Gu Xuelan gave Minglan an embroidered handkerchief, and Gu Rulan gave a purse.

Between sisters, the birthday gifts are very simple and expensive.

Minglan stretched out her hand to take it, and when she saw the bracelet she was wearing on her wrist, Gu Xuelan's eyes lit up, "What a beautiful bracelet!"

Gu Rulan was also amazed, the bracelet couldn't be pulled out at a glance.

"When did the second sister buy such a beautiful bracelet, why don't we know?" Gu Xuelan said enviously.

Minglan smiled, "This is a birthday gift from my mother. ”

"This is the birthday," Gu Xuelan looked envious.

The three of them went to Changsong Courtyard with a smile, and when they entered the house, Gu Xuelan said to the fourth wife, "Mother, the second sister has a birthday today, and the second aunt gave her a particularly beautiful bracelet. ”

In front of the old lady, she coquettishly behaved to the fourth lady.

The fourth lady smiled, "I want to see how beautiful it is." ”

What can Minglan do, he can only show his hand to the fourth wife.

When the fourth wife saw it, she was also full of praise, "Such a beautiful bracelet is worth a lot of money, but my mother is not as rich as your second aunt and can't afford it." ”

Gu Xuelan didn't let go, she just wanted it.

When the old lady saw it, she smiled and said, "There is only one gift for a lifetime, and if she likes it, just buy her one." ”

"Okay, I'll ask you where your second aunt bought it from," the fourth lady replied.

Gu Xuelan couldn't close her mouth happily.

She was so happy that Minglan couldn't bear to tell her that her mother didn't know where she bought this bracelet......

On Minglan's birthday, the old lady gave her a set of headdresses, the third wife gave her a jade bracelet, and the fourth wife gave her a golden hairpin.

Minglan thanked them one by one.

At this time, a maid came in from outside and said, "Second girl, the young master is here." ”

Cousin is coming?

Minglan was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and went to greet him.

When I walked to the second gate, I saw two cousins walking side by side.

One is Mu Li, and the other is Lu Mingcheng.

"Why are the two cousins here together?" said Ming Lanfu.

Lu Mingcheng said with a smile, "I happened to meet in front of the Bofu." ”

"Mingzhu, why didn't she come?" Minglan looked behind him, thinking that Lu Mingzhu had hid and teased her before, and said with a smile, "This time, won't she hide again?"

Lu Mingcheng smiled, gave the gift, and said, "Yesterday she went to Anpingbo's Mansion to play, and accidentally broke her foot, and her ankle was red and swollen and she couldn't come, let me bring the gift she prepared for you, and when her ankle is healed, I will come to look for you again." ”

"Why was you so careless?" Minglan said worriedly.

Lu Mingcheng smiled and didn't explain, so as not to add to her troubles, she only sent the brocade box.

Two brocade boxes, one was given by Lu Mingzhu, which contained a pair of red coral earrings, and the other was given by him, which was a beaded flower.

It is not an ordinary bead flower, it is made of gold wire, and it is decorated with millet beads, which are sparkling and beautiful in the sun.

After reading it, Minglan thanked him, then aimed his eyes at Mu Li, stretched out his hand and said, "Where's my cousin's gift?"

Mu Li slapped Minglan's palm with a fan and said, "How can anyone ask for a gift?"

After the fight, Mu Li felt a gaze staring at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Isn't it, just joking with my cousin, and you have to be stared at?

Such a cousin-in-law who likes to keep an eye on and be careful...... Didn't my cousin look for it at night with a lantern, right?

Mu Li just patted it lightly, it was not heavy, and Minglan's hand was not returned.

Feeling that the sight lingered, Mu Li silently took out the brocade box and put it in Minglan's hand.

Minglan happily took it, opened it and looked at it, and immediately smiled, "Xiangfei fan?"

She took out the fan and unfolded it casually, with reddish-brown markings blooming on the sallow yellow background, like a blooming plum blossom, ancient and delicate, and her nose seemed to be able to smell a plum blossom fragrance, which was quiet and elegant.

Minglan couldn't put it down.

Mu Li leaned closer and whispered, "When you see the prince of Liwang, let him stop staring at me in the future, that kind of taste is not comfortable." ”

Minglan, "....... ”
