Chapter 322 Birthday gift
Soon, Chen Jiayu's birthday came, and Lei Yingying and Lin Shuran arrived at Prince Jin's mansion together by car. Lei Yingying gave a gift of a good ginseng tree for Chen Jiayu's body, and Lin Shuran gave it The thing is relatively big, so she asked someone to make a pregnancy pillow for Chen Jiayu.

When the servants of Prince Jin's Mansion received the gifts from Lei Yingying, they all lamented that the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion was really generous, but the majestic wife of the general gave her a pillow, which was too perfunctory and perfunctory some.

Gu Xiruo saw the gift from Lin Shuran from a distance, snorted coldly with disdain, then deliberately walked up to the servants in Prince Jin's mansion who were in charge of receiving gifts from guests, and asked, "This thing is really strange, why is it so big? I don't know what it is Who gave you the expensive gift?"

The servants of Prince Jin's Mansion also act according to their faces. Now in the palace, only the old prince thinks highly of the concubine, and everyone else is more or less holding back. In my eyes, this concubine is now half of the family in the palace, and they all know the relationship between Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu. Although the gift that Lin Shuran gave today is a bit unattractive, they dare not say anything more.

"Responding to this lady, it was given to my concubine by the wife of the great general, and she said it was a pillow!" After finishing speaking, the servant was busy receiving other guests.

Gu Xiruo seemed to be very fond of the servant's "Madam", she nodded her head and then turned to go to the female relatives of the palace to entertain guests, but she was still resentful in her heart, she tried every means to marry into Lingwang's mansion, thinking that even if she couldn't become a princess in the future , at least she is also a side concubine of the prince. Now that Prince Ling's mansion has become the uncle's mansion, she has become the uncle's aunt Gu. This gap makes her really regret her original decision.

Now Uncle Anning’s mansion is still in charge of the old lady, and no one is willing to marry her daughter to the disabled uncle as the main wife, so the old lady decided to choose someone between her and Qi Rouer to be the main wife. Time gave birth to a daughter, and now she is in confinement, so the old lady brought her and the young lady Zhao Kerou to the banquet at Prince Chun's mansion today.

"Where did you go? Don't look unruly!" Gu Xiruo reprimanded Zhao Kerou in a low voice when she saw her.

Gu Xiruo just smiled softly, but she looked down on Zhao Kerou very much in her heart. Now she is not a mighty Princess Kerou, she was divorced by the Dingyuan Houfu, and she is not going to marry a good family. But she hasn't learned to bow her head and be well-behaved, and her previous arrogant temperament hasn't changed at all.

"Is my sister looking for something? I just wandered around casually just now, and happened to meet a guest receiving the gift from the palace. Seeing the strange gift in his hand, I said a few more words out of curiosity." Gu Xiruo looked at Zhao Kerou deliberately and said, she Knowing that Zhao Kerou is just like herself, she doesn't like Lin Shuran.

Sure enough, Zhao Kerou gave her a more contemptuous glance, as if mocking Gu Xiruo's ignorance of the world, and said, "Don't be so shallow-skinned and lose the face of the uncle's mansion, how can you say that your father is also the Imperial College Jijiu, isn't it? Haven't seen anything good?!"

Gu Xiruo leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words, Zhao Kerou looked suspicious in her eyes and asked, "Are you sure? She really gave it to you?"

Gu Xiruo nodded and said that the servants of the palace told her that the gift Lin Shuran gave Chen Jiayu today was a strange and big pillow.

Zhao Kerou immediately walked forward with a soft snort, and soon she saw Lin Shuran, Lei Yingying, Chen Jiayu, Ming Shi and others gathered in the living room to talk together, accompanied by many wives and young ladies from the house.

So, she also walked into the hall, and it was very customary to salute and greet, but when she came to Lin Shuran, she deliberately asked with a look of curiosity: "Mrs. The gift is a pillow, but Ke Rou wants to ask, is there any particularity in giving a pillow as a birthday gift?"

Her question made the originally lively living room quiet. Everyone had different expressions on their faces. Then the old lady from Anningbo's mansion and the mother and daughter Ruan and Chen Jiating from the Prime Minister's mansion who came in were also taken aback. What, Is Lin Shuran's birthday gift to Chen Jiayu today a pillow?

"When did Ms. Zhao start to care about these things?" Lei Yingying could tell at a glance that Zhao Kerou had no good intentions and deliberately wanted to embarrass Lin Shuran in front of all the female guests.

Zhao Kerou pretended not to see the displeasure on Lei Yingying's face, and continued: "I'm asking because I don't understand. I've never heard of anyone giving a birthday gift, and the guests gave pillows. I still remember when she gave me pillows. When Aunt Gu of our family puts on her makeup, she buys thousands of taels of jewelry, which is so generous, but why does she become stingy when she arrives at Shizifei's place? A few days ago, Shizifei gave charcoal in a timely manner to help her Xu family The candy shop in the house has come back to life, isn’t there some treasure hidden in this pillow?”

Chen Jiayu just smiled politely. Zhao Kerou has gone through great changes in her family and has not changed her troublesome temperament. Whether Lin Shuran gives her gold or mud is a matter between them, so what has to do with her? She talks a lot.

Lin Shuran looked at Zhao Kerou before Chen Jiayu said anything, and said, "I didn't expect Miss Zhao to be so curious. There are no rare treasures in the pillow, just some soft cotton wool. My gift is indeed not expensive. I will share with you all." Compared with the gift I gave, it is a bit shabby, I hope you don't dislike it, Shi Zifei."

Lin Shuran talked and smiled and turned to Chen Jiayu, but Chen Jiayu looked at her with a smile, and replied: "Since ancient times, gifts are not based on high or low, but on the heart. My sister and I have a close relationship. Give me the biggest and best gift for my birthday, how can the price of ordinary things compare with my sister's heart."

"Sister Chen, what you said is wrong. The gift we gave you today is not as good as that given by my sister. I chose it with my heart." Lei Yingying pretended to be jealous and said angrily .

Chen Jiayu immediately smiled and said: "Don't misunderstand me, I know that everyone came to celebrate me today with great care, I am grateful before it is too late, I always want everyone to laugh, but don't be offended."

"It sounds good. I know why my sister gave you a pillow. You told me a while ago that you always felt uncomfortable when you turned over at night. I told my sister about it, and she remembered it. She specially came up with this kind of pregnancy pillow for you, saying it will help you sleep, she didn't even think of it herself, she only thought of you!" Lei Yingying was able to tell Lin Shuran the reason why she gave Chen Jiayu a pillow today .

"So the general's wife meant this. I thought you were worried about my sister's sleeplessness and tears in the middle of the night, so you specially made her a pillow instead of her brother-in-law to accompany her!" At this time, Chen Jiating uttered a half-smile Said, obviously in a very aggressive tone, not so friendly.
