Chapter 318 The Naughty Child Bei Yanyu
Many people were whispering to each other. Madam Cao, who disliked Madam Qiu, was even more proud and consoled her, saying, "Madam Qiu, even though the princess doesn't care about you, we are still here."
"You just can't invite the princess, but you can find a whole courtyard of people."
"Even if we are embarrassed in front of the princess, we are here to give you honor, so your birthday won't be too lonely~"
If it wasn't for the words "although", "just", and "even if".
Mrs. Qiu almost thought she was really kind.
But she remained calm, knowing that the second princess was going to find a baby for her.
When the time comes, take it out and blind these people’s eyes!
It’s the young lady’s birthday, so naturally the young ladies play together.
Everyone took out the precious flowers and plants they had prepared, competing with each other for novelty and beauty.
Flower lovers are dazzled by the sight, but their hearts bleed when they think that these delicate flowers, which have been nurtured with great effort by craftsmen, will eventually be reduced to being played with by a group of young men.
The atmosphere reached its climax when Lady Cao displayed her white crown and lotus tripod.
Especially the ladies who came from other aristocratic families, they did not hide their flattery and envy towards her.
Even Mrs. Qiu's sister couldn't help but sigh: "Is this the best flower in the world?"
"It is an orchid, but its shape is like a lotus, simple, elegant and beautiful."
Mrs. Qiu glared at her and asked, "Who are you working for?"
Mrs. Qiu Er rubbed against the eldest sister and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't be angry, sister. We are sure to lose this time, but next time it's her birthday, we will definitely go to her place to make a scene and take over her hostess."
"Don't be angry~"
Someone asked Madam Cao, "Didn't they say that this flower was bought by the elder of the clan? The Cao family is really very powerful. It's so hard to get it from him."
Madam Cao stood there proudly, her chin unconsciously raised slightly.
He said in a very pretentious manner: "What's this? It's just a flower. I am a direct descendant of the Cao family. I can find any good things I want."
"Even the tributes from the palace are much better than this."
All of a sudden, the birthday boy was ignored, and the focus of the banquet became another person, just as Mrs. Qiu had expected.
but......
"The Second Princess has arrived——"
The suspicion that Madam Qiu was not favored by the princess was dispelled.
Bei Yanyu didn't know how the situation would develop, but she came to support her friend, and the first thing she said was not to ask those who were greeting to stand up.
But: "Finally caught up."
She reached out to hold the little sister's hand, helped her up, and said, "I think that ordinary gifts are not worthy of you."
"I heard you were going to hold a grass-fighting party, so I found a treasure to make you happy."
Then he remembered to ask everyone to stand up.
After personally handing the brocade box to Madam Qiu, she did not rush to open it and take it out, but glanced at Madam Cao.
She placed her white fingers on the lid of the brocade box, slightly opened a slit and looked inside, and said in surprise, "Your Highness actually brought the treasure I wanted. This is a thousand times more valuable than the white crown and lotus tripod."
"As expected of Her Royal Highness the Princess."
This statement was suspected of bragging, so Lady Cao reminded her: "A princess's love is worth a fortune."
"But if we only talk about value, no matter what kind of flowers and plants, they can't compare to the Suguan Lotus Tripod, right?"
"Besides, this box isn't made of fresh flowers, and dried flowers can't be used to fight weeds."
"Madam Qiu, don't talk big and lose your tongue. You don't know how to save His Highness's face."
Madam Qiu also pulled her sleeves and begged, "Sister, please stop talking. What if His Highness gets angry if you say such big words?"
Looking at the others, she also felt that she was trying to save face for herself, but because the Second Princess was present, she did not dare to say much.
Madam Qiu opened the brocade box and took out a straight, pure white beard.
No one would think that the beard the princess gave as a gift would be an ordinary beard, but they could only guess: "Your Highness, which elder's beard is this?"
But it's too ridiculous. It's too cheap for an elder to cut off his beard and let the kids play with it.
Bei Yanyu said proudly: "Do you know the poet Xie Lingyun from the previous dynasty?"
Everyone took a deep breath, unable to conceal their expressions.
Madam Cao questioned, "Your Highness, Mr. Xie's beard was donated to Xiangji Temple for decoration of Buddha statues. How could it be in your hands?"
Madam Qiu was like a little fox with a tiger's back, taking advantage of the tiger's power. She replied with great momentum, "The whole world belongs to the king. Whatever the princess wants, even the big Buddha will give it to her."
"If you don't believe me, go and have a look. The beard on the Buddha statue is long gone."
Until the end, Mrs. Qiu was always flattered and enjoyed great glory.
After all, the princess had brought even these things as gifts for her.
Bei Yanyu has been immersed in pride until today, unaware that danger is approaching rapidly.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip of water.
Hmm? It's cool.
So she put it down and asked, "Who is in charge of warming the tea today?"
A young eunuch stood up and said, "Your Highness, it's your servant."
The green porcelain hit him on the forehead.
The little eunuch's forehead swelled up quickly, and he knelt down to apologize: "Your Highness, please calm down. I deserve to die!"
"Don't you know it's cold? How dare you neglect your duty?"
"I've already had a sip of cool water today. If you have pain during your period next time, I'll show you how I can deal with you."
But you obviously feel pain every time...
Moreover, he was ready to change the water, but...
But he didn't dare to refute and could only let his anger be vented.
Just as he was ready to receive a more severe punishment, a domineering little girl rushed in with a feather duster.
I asked casually, "What did he do wrong that you caned him?"
Bei Yanyu replied: "Eldest sister, he let my water get cold and didn't even change it."
"It made me drink a sip of cold water today!"
Bei Jingchu scratched his ears with his free hand, suspecting that he had heard wrongly.
I can't believe that my sister, who is as kind as a little white rabbit, can be so naive and cruel to other people.
It's like a child using water to scald ants to death, innocent yet full of malicious intent.
Take pleasure in the struggle of the weak.
The clever child knew best who not to offend. He could see that his eldest sister was unhappy, so he spoke very softly.
She even reached out her little hand stealthily, trying to take the chicken feather duster that Bei Jingchu was holding in her right hand.
Unsuccessful, could not lift it.
The next moment, she was hit on the butt with a feather whisk.
Not to mention, it feels just as soft as I remember.
“Ah~!”
Bei Jingchu was really angry.
"You just left the palace to attend a birthday party, and you caused me such a big trouble! Huh?"
"I thought pulling out a tiger's beard was a sign of bravery, but you dared to pull out the beard of Vimalakirti Buddha!"
"You're not a warrior, you're a gangster!"
