Chapter 18: Birthday Gift

Xiao Zheng frowned. b𝚎dn𝚘v𝚎l.𝚌𝚘m

He really did not understand Young Master anymore. Just now, he looked like he was disappointed in love, but now, he could say it so calmly.

Xie Xingyun walked towards the spot where the horses were parked.

Xiao Zheng glanced at the flower that Bai Xianyu had thrown into the pavilion. "Young Marquis, do you still want this flower?"

Xie Xingyun got on the horse and closed his eyes. He said coldly, "Throw it away."

She didn't want it.

What was the point of him keeping it?

Bai Xianyu got into the carriage again, and Green Pearl quickly sized her up. "Miss, are you alright?"

Bai Xianyu heaved a sigh of relief. "It's fine now."

"Young Marquis and the others won't follow us anymore, right?" Green Pearl carefully lifted the curtain on one side and looked at the road ahead and behind.

There was no sound of horses' hooves. It seemed that they had already left.

Bai Xianyu calmed down for a while and said, "Let's go to the cloth shop in the outer city."

The coachman acknowledged the order.

Eldest Brother was going to battle the day after tomorrow. If she did not rush to make the birthday present, it would probably be too late.

A few people got off the carriage at the cloth shop outside the city. Bai Xianyu picked some needles and thread and suddenly remembered that Lin Xingjian seemed to have asked her for a pouch last time at the hunting ground.

Bai Jinyan tugged at the pouch on Lin Xingjian's body and looked at it. [Xingjian, I had wanted to tell you previously that the pouch you had on was really ugly. Indeed, when I look at it today, it is even uglier. Sigh, this is the difference between having a younger sister and not having one.]

[Look at my pouch. It was made by my sister. Doesn't it look good? Isn't it much better than those made by the embroiderers in the capital?]

Lin Xingjian: [My mother made this herself.]

Bai Jinyan: […]

Lin Xingjian looked at her gently. [Xianyu, if you really want to thank me, why don't you give me a pouch? I think the one on Jinyan looks pretty.]

Fourth Brother realized that he had spoken without thinking and had accidentally insulted Lin Xingjian's mother, so he did not say anything.

If it were any other time, even if Bai Xianyu's gift to his other brothers was better looking than his, Bai Jinyan would have to grieve for a while before he could perk up, let alone let Lin Xingjian get anything from her.

Bai Xianyu treated him as her savior, so she agreed.

Although Xie Xingyun said that he was the one who shot the white tiger, she had already agreed and could not reject him.

Bai Xianyu thought about this and asked for more needles and thread.

The snow melted, and it was soon the Lantern Festival.

Bai Xianyu took the materials and made a pouch for Bai Tanshen in the courtyard. The gift she had given him a few years ago was already worn out and had even been mocked by the soldiers. Bai Tanshen specifically said that he wanted a bigger one as his birthday gift this time.

When Green Pearl saw Bai Xianyu's technique, she exclaimed, "Miss, your embroidery skills are getting better and better!"

Bai Xianyu smiled. "Aren't you exaggerating?"

"It's true!" Green Pearl really felt that after young Miss fell into the lake, she seemed to have become a different person. Her embroidery skills had improved too quickly.

"Miss, look. You embroidered this not long ago. Then, you embroidered this today…" She placed them together and compared them. "The difference is too great."

Bai Xianyu thought to herself that she had embroidered many things for Xie Xingyun in the past, but he had never worn them. She had also seriously invited the number one embroiderer in the capital and carefully consulted him for a long period before she could hone her skills to what she had today.

Eldest Princess's residence.

"Take these with you." Eldest Princess Jing An took a look at the things in the servant's hands. "Don't take these. That girl from the Bai Family has her second brother, who knew his stuff. If you take these, we'll lose face."
