Chapter 786 A Special Birthday Gift
Chapter 786 A Special Birthday Gift
Pei Yi glanced sideways at the confident look of the old man, and couldn't help but raise a sly smile at the corner of his mouth, bringing up the old story again.
"Then I wonder what birthday gift my cousin prepared for Sister Qing?"
Lin Yuzan: ...
The expression on the old man's face froze instantly.
The next moment, he glared at the young man fiercely, angrily threw his sleeves and left, leaving behind a sentence: "Remember to check Chen's letter carefully, and don't let her spread the news."
A smug smile also turned to the young man's face. He watched the old man leave and touched the tip of his nose happily.
At this moment, a shadow guard quietly came to his side and whispered to him, "Your Majesty has ordered that Chen Jiaoyi's life must be exchanged for the account of the Chen family's withholding of military pay and collusion with the Hu people. However, the Duke of Chen's mansion has been searched thoroughly and there is no such thing."
Pei Yi's smile suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly realized: "So this is what the old man meant by what he said just now."
The boy's expression became extremely depressed, and he turned and walked towards the dungeon.
Lin Yuzan quietly won back a game, but he did not feel happy at all.
He returned home in silence, and saw his wife, who had been abducted by his grandmother, heading towards the wing room with soft and delicious cakes and tea.
He called out softly, "Wanniang, I'm back!"
Wan Niang looked back at him calmly and asked, "My dear, have you got Sister Qing's birthday gift back? Sister Qing's birthday is the day after tomorrow. If you act like you did last year, I won't agree!"
Lin Yuzan: ( ̄_, ̄), shouldn’t you ask him about his well-being first?
The old man longed for his wife who did not follow the rules, hoping that she would care about him.
Ran Wanniang left this warning and walked straight towards the wing room without looking back.
Soon, her cheerful laughter and puzzled questions could be heard from the room.
"Is what Grandma said true? In order to continue his family line, that man actually found a good friend to borrow sperm from his wife while she was asleep!"
"Of course it's true. In fact, his wife also knows about this, but she just won't say it out loud!"
"Huh? No!"
"..."
Lin Yuzan: ( ̄_ ̄|||), my grandmother talks about these nonsense every day, which really hinders the relationship between husband and wife!
The old man helplessly put his hands into the hand warmer and stood alone in the yard, letting the cold wind blow past him. He felt his heart become more and more desolate due to being neglected.
Little Yining in the girls' school didn't know that her father had become a lonely man. She waited and waited, and finally the eve of her birthday arrived.
Unlike last year when the holiday coincided with the ten-day holiday, this year the holiday was adjusted to fall on a school day, and the ten-day holiday fell on the day after her birthday.
Therefore, the little kid happily got two days off a week.
Wang Cheng also took leave early, and waited in front of the mountain gate under the watchful eyes of the gatekeeper, waiting for his niece to come out of school.
After an unknown amount of time, the figure of a little boy holding a small box in the distance caught his eye. Behind him were several maids besides Zhao Yaqiuyi, and each of them was holding a gift box of varying sizes.
Seeing this, the old man couldn't help but take a step towards the mountain gate.
The next moment, two hands immediately blocked his chest.
At the same time, a deafening voice rang out from the doorway: "Wang Lin and dogs are not allowed to enter the girls' school, and the same applies to you!"
Wang Cheng: ......
The old man immediately pulled out two golden hairpins from his bosom and handed them over, saying flatteringly, "Please, sisters, be kind. My niece has too many things. Please let me in and help her get one or two!"
However, what the old man did not expect was that the two women guarding the gate regarded gold as dirt and were even a bit cynical!
The two men's eyes swept over the golden hairpin in Wang Cheng's hand, and they raised the same sarcastic smile.
"Master Wang, are you treating us like women out there just for fun?"
"What a shameless and hypocritical person! He is a disgrace to the holy land!"
The golden hairpin in Wang Cheng's hand froze in mid-air, and the smile on his face also froze.
An awkward atmosphere permeated the entire mountain gate.
Fortunately, the movement here was noticed by the sharp-eyed and sharp-eared Xiao Yining. She quickly moved her legs and ran over, saving Wang Cheng from his embarrassing situation.
"Uncle, Qingjie is here!" the little girl shouted while holding the small box, and the people behind her also started running.
Wang Cheng cursed the gatekeeper countless times in his heart, put the gold hairpin back into his arms angrily, immediately forced out a gentle smile, and squatted down.
"Sister Qing, go slow, don't be impatient!"
When the old man saw his niece approaching, he quickly reached out to take the small box, then held her in his arms and stood up.
Little Yining excitedly pointed behind her and introduced, "Uncle, these are the birthday gifts that the older sisters from the girls' school gave to Qingjie."
Early this morning, there were constant knocks on the gate of Linglong Courtyard, all of them were people who wanted to give her birthday gifts.
This is a brand new experience of being a princess for the little girl.
This was the first time she had seen Linglong Courtyard so crowded with people. What shocked her even more was that the people in the girls' school were so well-informed that they knew she would take a day off and sent the birthday gift a day early.
Wang Cheng glanced at the birthday gifts calmly and said, "Qingjie, remember to ask Madam Zhao to register them so that you can return the gifts later!"
Being reminded of the countless favors she had to deal with and the gifts she was receiving, Xiao Yining's smile suddenly vanished. She pouted and said obediently, "Don't worry, uncle. Aunt Zhao and Qiu Yi have both made sure of this!"
Wang Cheng nodded with satisfaction, then carried the baby and led a group of gift boxes down the mountain in a mighty procession.
At this time, the two women who had been arguing with others returned to their usual respectful demeanor and respectfully saw Xiao Yining off.
The little kid leaned on the old man's shoulder, looking at the birthday party procession behind him. He put his depression behind him and became excited again. He chattered to the old man: "Uncle, Qingjie'er's classmates also gave me a lot of fun things!"
"Sister Liu also gave me a promise, saying that if Lord Liu impeaches you in the future, she will inform me in advance!"
Wang Cheng paused, glanced at his niece speechlessly, and reminded her again, "Miss Liu is so thoughtful. Sister Qing, remember to send a message to Lord Liu the day after tomorrow, asking him to be gentle and not punish Miss Liu too harshly."
Xiao Yining: (⊙o⊙), Why did Lord Liu beat Sister Liu? How did she betray her father?
