Jiang Mingyi's eyelids twitched violently upon hearing this, wanting to deny it but not knowing how to begin.
"No, as long as Mother thinks it's suitable, that's fine."
So docile.
Gu An'an sighed silently to herself; she did want to see Jiang Mingyi argue with her on the side of reason.
Instead of acting like this now, as if I'm being unreasonable.
"You child, you are not cute at all."
Who says you can only choose one birthday gift?
She could choose to buy a zither, but that wouldn't stop her from giving Jiang Mingzhu a knife for chopping vegetables and meat.
In the adult world, it's always been about me being the best.
However, it's a bit difficult to find a suitable gift. Anping County is just a small county town, and there's no music hall there.
"Buy a zither?" Manager Lin of Taibai Restaurant hesitated slightly. "Then we'll have to ask someone to bring it from Anzhou Prefecture. If Madam Gu isn't in a hurry, I can arrange it. It should be delivered around the Lantern Festival. What do you think?"

Manager Lin quickly produced the silver notes. "Thank you so much, Madam Gu. That fermented pork is now a signature dish of our Taibai Restaurant. Even distinguished guests from the capital say it's delicious."
Upon hearing this, Gu An'an casually asked, "How could our small county town attract distinguished guests from the capital? Manager Lin is certainly joking."
"Why would someone my age lie to Madam Gu? He truly is a distinguished guest from the capital. Madam Gu, have you ever heard of the Marquis of Pingyuan? This distinguished guest is the heir of the Marquis of Pingyuan's mansion."
Manager Lin kept his voice extremely low, fearing that something might be leaked.
Seeing Gu An'an's pale face, he laughed. "Look, she's still scared."
Gu An'an wasn't scared or anything.
Who knew the male lead would appear online so early!
Is it too late to go home now?
