Wen Yuzhi reminded him: “We can talk about it later. Don’t forget the purpose of our visit today.”
Wen Changyun, who originally wanted to ask his father for clarification, paused.
By the way, today’s main event is celebrating Xiaowu’s birthday.
It’s better not to delay Xiaowu’s birthday.
“No need, I’m not in a hurry.”
Wen Si smiled, “If you have anything to say, please speak up now.”
She was enjoying watching the show.
Wen Yue didn’t really want to be watched by her here.
If she doesn’t stop him, Wen Changyun will probably be out of her control.
Wen Yue immediately forced a smile and said, “No matter what it is, it’s not as important as Fifth Sister’s birthday today, don’t you think, Big Brother?”
Wen Changyun nodded subconsciously, “Yes, Xiaoliu is right.”
“OK.”
Unable to watch the good show, Wen Si simply spread her hands and asked Wen Quansheng, Wen Changyun and others, “Then bring it here.”
“What?”
Wen Changyun hadn’t reacted yet and stood there in a daze.
“A gift.”
Wen Si smiled and said, “Didn’t you come here specially to celebrate my birthday? Why do you all come with nothing?”
As soon as these words came out, Wen Changyun, who finally realized that he had forgotten something, was immediately filled with shame.
“Dongdang.”
The bucket in Wen Zichen’s hand fell to the ground and he was stunned.
Not only the eldest brother, he also forgot about this matter!
The two brothers were at a loss for what to do.
“I’m sorry, Xiaowu, I was in such a hurry when I came here…”
“Xiao Wu, don’t be angry with me! I was wrong. I forgot such an important thing. I will go down the mountain and buy it for you right now!”
“Yes, brother is going too!”
“No.”
Wen Si called them in a calm tone.
She didn’t really want it, but she just couldn’t stand the hypocritical look of these people and wanted to expose them.
Wen Ziyue and Wen Yuzhi’s reactions were not that big. They just froze for a moment before returning to normal.
It’s just a gift.
If Wen Si really wants it, can’t I just make it up to her later?
Although Wen Quansheng frowned, he didn’t react much either. He just said as if he was giving alms: “This may be the last time I celebrate your birthday. Think about what you want. There won’t be a next time.”
“Then forget it.”
Wen Si took back her hands without hesitation, “I dare not accept the alms you give me. I am afraid that if I accept it, you will add the accusation of ‘greediness’ when you come to humiliate me next time.”
“you–!”
The more Wen Ziyue felt that Wen Si was becoming more and more shameless.
Okay, okay, go ahead and do it.
The more you do, the better!
Wen Yue was gloating in her heart. She just wanted to see how long it would take for this little bitch Wen Si to kill herself completely.
“Fifth sister, father and brothers didn’t forget to prepare gifts on purpose, so please don’t be angry with them, okay? How about this, father and brothers gave me so many gifts at the coming-of-age ceremony, and there were many precious things. If you like them, Yue’er will give them to you on behalf of father and brothers, okay?”
“not good!”
As soon as Wen Yue finished speaking, the first person to get anxious was Wen Ziyue.
“Xiao Liu, those are birthday gifts for you. You are not allowed to give them to Wen Si! She doesn’t understand other people’s kindness at all. It would be a waste even if you gave them to her!”
“Xiao Liu, your third brother is indeed right about this.”
Wen Changyun also disagreed with Wen Yue giving away her birthday gift.
“But today is Fifth Sister’s birthday. How sad would she be if she didn’t receive any gifts?”
Wen Yue looked over Wen Changyun’s shoulder and spoke words of concern and pity, but her eyes were full of provocation when she looked at Wen Si.
“It’s not the first time anyway, so why should you be sad? Didn’t you not receive any flowers at your coming-of-age ceremony before?”
Wen Ziyue sneered and said something that hurt people’s hearts.
“So Wen Si, you’d better behave yourself. As long as you behave yourself, father and we can still give you this birthday gift.”
Wen Si said impatiently: “I said I don’t want to…”
“So the etiquette of the Zhenguo Mansion for celebrating someone’s birthday is to come back empty-handed, and you have to threaten someone before they’ll give you a gift?”
At this moment, a familiar low voice suddenly came from outside the yard.
Wen Quansheng and others looked back and saw Regent Beichen Yuan standing outside the door, holding two gifts in each hand, looking at them with a smile.
“Why is the prince here?”
Wen Quansheng frowned again.
“Duke Tuo Zhenguo reminded me that His Majesty specially prepared a gift for me to deliver. I didn’t expect to hear your unique etiquette as soon as I arrived.”
Wen Si pursed her lips and quickly turned her head away to hold back her laughter.
His Royal Highness the Regent really knows how to curse.
What unique etiquette? Isn’t this equivalent to directly scolding everyone in the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion for not knowing etiquette?
As expected, Wen Quansheng’s face darkened instantly when he understood.
Beichen Yuan ignored him and walked up to Wen Si with two gifts. “Wuyou, happy birthday. Am I not late?”
“Not late, just in time.”
The coldness in Wen Si’s eyes had already disappeared when she saw Beichen Yuan appear.
“Why two gifts?”
Wen Si took one in each hand and was deeply moved when she saw these two gifts that were obviously carefully prepared.
One was sent by His Majesty, and she had already guessed who sent the other one.
But inexplicably, at this moment she wanted to pretend to be confused and ask the other party even though she knew the answer.
Beichen Yuan curled his thin lips.
As smart as he was, how could he not see through Wen Si’s pretense of being stupid? He chose to cooperate: “Of course it’s because I have another copy for you. I wasted some time choosing it, so it’s delayed until now.”
Fortunately it’s not too late.
Wen Si’s smile became more beautiful: “Thank you, Your Majesty and Your Highness, for your kindness.”
“Open it and take a look. I hope you like it.”
“Open it right here?”
Wen Si was surprised.
“Yes, it’s okay, just open it directly, so that the Duke of Zhenguo and the others can take a look and see if these two gifts are suitable.”
When Wen Si heard Beichen Yuan’s words, she knew that these two gifts were probably not simple.
She paused for a moment and then said without hesitation: “Okay.”
Beichen Yuan helped her carry one first, and then Wen Si opened the first gift under the ambiguous gazes of the Wen family members.
The next second, Wen Si opened her eyes wide in surprise and turned to look at Beichen Yuan in disbelief.
“This…is this a gift from His Majesty?”
