Chen Momo accepted the order, opened the lid of the box and set it aside, holding the box and walking slowly in front of everyone.
Everyone looked around and saw a round fan lying in a wooden box. The handle was filled with sandalwood. The surface of the fan was made of fine Tencel brocade and embroidered with vivid lotus flowers. There were obvious bulges on the petals. The closer you get, the scent of herbs.
Because the scent of sandalwood is neutralized, the medicinal scent is not unpleasant and even feels soothing.
Everyone who saw it, except for Mrs. Qi who looked calm, all spoke with praise, no matter what they thought in their hearts.
Princess Qin was afraid that Mrs. Qi would open her mouth again, so she even praised her from the fan to Lin Jinyan, who looked like sisters.
When Mrs. Qi saw this scene, not only was she not dissuaded, but she felt even more heartbroken and said with a smile:
"If every stitch and thread of this fan is really made by Miss Lin, then Miss Lin is really a genius. She has lived in the wilderness for many years, and she can actually teach herself without a teacher, be a prostitute and paint, but what else can she do? ? Can you play the piano, sing and dance?"
A smile flashed across the queen's eyes:
He's a talker.
The eyes of Concubine Xian and Princess Qin were filled with annoyance:
This old witch seeking death really has no taboos as she gets older. Can she say such stupid things in front of others?
Before they could stop them, Bai Yiran, who was burning with anger, bowed to the Queen Mother with a smile and said:
"Empress Dowager, although this fan is small, the medicinal materials sewn in the silk thread are indeed rare and have the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind. If used commonly, it can prolong life. Although Cangsheng Mountain is far away from Kyoto, it is not a wilderness. It is good to learn something. It’s normal, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to teach so many famous doctors, so there’s really no need to be so strange.”
"When Yan'er was young, he once gave the Empress Dowager a girl's gift, but it was difficult for the Empress Dowager to accept it because she was kind and magnanimous. Even though many years have passed, if you compare it, you can see whether it was made by the same person. Qi If the old lady doesn’t believe it, she can ask the Queen Mother for Yan’er’s birthday gift many years ago and compare it.”
Before Mrs. Qi could speak, Bai Yiran turned to look at her:
"Whether Yan'er knows anything, since we elders are here, there is really no need for the old lady to worry about it. As for the singing and dancing that the old lady mentioned, Yan'er is too shy to learn those. On the contrary, the old lady's granddaughter, just by virtue of I just imagined that I would stand up for others at the birthday banquet, with such a brave and lively temperament, I imagine that the descendants of the old lady must be outstanding in singing and dancing."
Madam Qi had a smooth life, and it was common for her to act arrogant and domineering in front of her daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, and concubine. How could anyone dare to talk back to her? She had never been choked by someone like this before, so she angrily pointed at Bai Yiran and opened her mouth to curse:
"You are so brave..."
"Mrs. Qi!"
Chen Momo put on her standard serious smile and interrupted. Seeing Mrs. Qi looking over, she said in a calm and unhurried tone:
"This is the Palace of Longevity, and the Queen Mother hasn't spoken yet."
After finishing her words, Mrs. Qi quickly closed her hands and looked towards the Queen Mother. Lin Jinyan was the first to kneel down, kowtowed and apologized:
"The Queen Mother, please calm down. Mrs. Qi only acted like this because of Miss Zhao and saw that my daughter was unhappy. It is not disrespectful to the Queen Mother. I should not have a dispute with Miss Zhao. Please don't do it because of this." It ruined the mood for the birthday.”
With such a clear complaint, everyone here couldn't help but raise their eyebrows. The Queen Mother kindly called them up without pursuing any further investigation.
When the Queen saw this, she praised Lin Jinyan verbally and squeezed Mrs. Qi overtly and covertly. Concubine Xian almost pinched her fingernails to prevent her smile from changing.
