Bi Zhu accepted An Lingge's orders and went to the location where the wedding ceremony would be stored with him.
She was also a quick-witted person. Knowing that An Lingge was trying to lure a snake out of its cave, she pretended to open a green colored cyan jade box, revealing a crystal clear Buddha statue.
The Buddha statue was only the size of a palm and it was made from the finest of Lantian's warm jade. Just by looking at it, one would be able to feel a gentle warmth.
Lan Xin's face revealed a look of surprise, she was just about to take another look, but Bi Zhu had already closed the box, "This wedding gift is fine, I was just too careful."
Lan Xin could only smile and imitate the "understanding" look, "I was being careful so that I wouldn't make a mistake. This is the first time that the Old Mistress has celebrated her birthday after returning to the Residence.
That is what you say, but isn't it you who hope that Miss will make a mistake?
Bi Zhu's heart flashed with disdain, but she did not show it on the outside. She brought him back with her, and the words that came out of her mouth did not stop, "Tomorrow is the old madam's birthday, but Miss's clothes are not ready yet."
She angrily pulled at the flowers on the side of the road, and crushed them in her hands, her face had a look of resentment, "It's all because of that shameless b * tch Lan Xin who secretly took Miss's clothes and sold them for silver, causing Miss to have no choice but to send someone else to get them. As for those who were rushing over from Heaven's Clothing Workshop, they would have to wait until the end of the day before they were delivered."
Lan Xin was initially smiling the same way as Ming Xin, but after hearing this, his smile froze.
In order to prevent Bi Zhu from becoming suspicious, she faked it and echoed her words, "That's right, Lan Xin is too much. Fortunately, Miss is kind and kind, so I let her go so easily."
"Heh, if our young miss doesn't take care of her, there will be plenty of people to deal with her. "Her hands and feet were dirty, yet she went to wander around the Third Miss' yard. Serves her right to be beaten to death by Third Miss' order!"
Bi Zhu fiercely snorted, her fierce expression made Lan Xin unable to help but dodge to the side.
I'm not dead yet!
As she shouted this in her heart, her smile became stiffer and stiffer, almost unable to maintain it.
But thinking about the promise Aunt Li had given her, Lan Xin forced herself to calm down.
As long as she was done with this matter, he would transfer her to the Third Miss' yard to serve her and make her a first-class maid. When she reached her age, he would find a steward in the mansion to marry her.
Such a good job wasn't something that everyone could get their hands on.
The corner of Lan Xin's mouth quirked into a dry smile as she randomly responded.
Seeing that Lan Xin had been almost beaten up by him, Bi Zhu heaved a sigh of relief and avoided this topic.
The two of them had just walked to An Lingge's house when they met the embroidery lady from Heaven's Clothing Workshop.
"Miss Bi Zhu, the princess' clothes are ready."
The news of An Lingge being bestowed the title of County Master by the Emperor had already spread a long time ago. Although no one specially discussed this matter, the people from Heaven's Clothing Workshop had specially made clothes for the rich and high families, so they naturally heard of this news.
She didn't address An Lingge as Eldest Miss, but called her Princess instead. She was flattering her.
The angry look on Bi Zhu's face had disappeared long ago, but when she was facing the embroidery lady, her round face had a pleasant smile, "It's the Madam Sun, I thought that the clothes would need some time to finish, but who would have thought that it was even done a few hours earlier than what I expected."
"Your family's old mistress wants the birthday, of course the eldest young miss's clothes have to be rushed out. If there's anything that's inappropriate, you can still change it, lest things get messy." As Madam Sun spoke, she walked to Bi Zhu's side and passed the clothes in his hands to her, "I hope that Miss Bi Zhu can give them to the princess for a try."
"Madam Sun's cooking skills have always been trusted." Even though Bi Zhu said that, she still took the clothes and turned around to enter the house.
Lan Xin stayed outside and imitated what she had done before ordering someone to invite Madam Sun to a side hall for tea.
This time, there were no problems with his clothes, An Lingge tried on his clothes, then got Bi Zhu to send him out of the house.
Lan Xin then took the chance to sneak into An Lingyi's courtyard and told her the news.
An Lingyi's eyes flashed, her charming face revealed a hint of malice, "She actually prepared another Buddha statue?"
In the past, when the Old Mistress had entered the residence, An Lingge had given her what she wanted and gave her the White Jade Guan Yin Statue. Now that the Old Mistress wanted to pass her birthday, An Lingge even prepared a picture of her.
"Is it because you asked for the wrong information? An Lingge is not that stupid."
Thinking about how many times she and her concubine had tried to plot against An Lingge, that cunning bitch definitely wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
She didn't even stay for a month, so she didn't know that An Lingge had once given a picture to the old lady. Hearing An Lingyi's words, she hesitantly said, "Last time, the young miss gave the old lady a white jade image. This time, she prepared warm Lan Tian jade, probably because the old lady likes the Buddha statue, so she came looking for another type of jade to please the old lady.
This argument made some sense, so An Lingyi put aside the doubt in her heart and waved his hand for her to return to the Parasol House.
When night came and covered the earth, the figures of people could be seen swaying along with the dim moonlight. However, none of them woke up from their Parasol House.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the second day. On the Old Mistress' birthday, An Lingge woke up very early as she helped her to dress up.
Bi Zhu had always been clever. She stood behind An Lingge, her ten fingers flicking back and forth between her thick, jet-black hair. Before Lan Xin could even clearly see her movements, an exquisite chignon made from immortal energy had already formed.
"There are many madams and mistresses here today, and Miss, you will definitely amaze them with your presence."
As Bi Zhu said that, she took out a beautiful golden hairpin from her wooden dressing case and placed it into An Lingge's hair. Then, she used water fat to slowly apply it onto An Lingge's mouth, causing her already tender lips to become a bit fuller.
An Lingge was naturally beautiful, so her makeup wasn't suitable for her to be complicated. Other than a golden foot that was tied up in a bun, there was no other decoration on her body.
Even so, her beautiful face was so dazzling that it was hard to look at.
She had a face like a goose, a mouth like a cherry, a brow like an ink painting, and a face like an ethereal fairy who had just walked out of a painting. Only her bright black eyes were enough to make one know that she was a rare beauty.
An Lingge slightly curled her lips, and the person in the mirror also revealed a smile, "Let's go, don't make Grandmother wait."
