Li Bin now wanted to prove from Lihua that it was from the Queen Mother through indirect circumvention, so that she could naturally ask for good things from the Queen Mother. She had used this trick many times before.
The rest of the people looked sideways, they had the same guess as Li Bin.
Several concubines didn't think that Lihua could have such a hairpin. After all, the concubines who came from Xiu Nu didn't even bring boxes and cages, so they were very shabby.
As for the rewards given by the Queen Mother and the Emperor to beautiful women and new concubines, the concubines probably knew about them. Except for Wu Fang'er, the rewards did not exceed the specifications.
Combined with the recent fact that pear blossoms are deeply loved by the Queen Mother, everyone speculated that the Queen Mother rewarded them privately.
What a beautiful woman, she coaxed the Queen Mother around and even rewarded her with a hairpin like this. How could she survive living alone!
The more everyone looked at Pear Blossom's hairpin, the more jealous they became. Seeing Concubine Li raise her head, they all agreed.
They first smiled coquettishly and said to the Queen Mother: "Forgive me, Queen Mother, but we would like to have a chat with Sister Wu and reward Sister Wu with her hairpin."
After saying this, the Queen Mother couldn't say anything, so she couldn't stop her, so she waved her hand and let them speak her mind.
Everyone then enthusiastically pulled Lihua over, acting like a conversation with a close little sister.
This means praising it, saying that this jade looks really good. I have never seen jade like this before. Where did it come from?
The one who said it was made at the Weaving Bureau? The master would send someone to make one when he gets back.
Others say that she doesn't even have such jewelry, but Wu Meiren has one. It would be great if she was lucky enough to have one.
Everyone was asking about Pear Blossoms with cheerful faces, but their words were full of wit.
The Queen Mother listened more and more to the side, and her brows furrowed more and more tightly.
But when the juniors were chatting and joking, she had been told in advance that it was not for her to interfere.
If ordinary people heard that the jewelry they wore was better than that of concubines of higher rank, they would definitely be frightened.
But Lihua didn't have any of it. She always had a smile on her face and patiently listened to people adding fuel to the fire.
She glanced at the Queen Mother's expression from the corner of her eye, and saw that the old lady's face was getting more and more ugly, while the concubines were still chirping and singing in harmony.
Lihua was afraid that the Queen Mother would be angry, so she cast a look to comfort her. The Queen Mother felt warm in her heart and her expression softened a lot.
Lihua then answered everyone one by one with a smile, her attitude was more enthusiastic than everyone else, and her tone was more sincere than everyone else,:
"This sister is surprised. This is the first time I have seen jade like this. I only know it is good, but I don't know what material it is made of."
"Sister, although I entered the palace late, I saw that you felt friendly, so I called you sister. You asked if it was done by the master of the Weaving Bureau, but I don't know. I will ask you another day."
Finally, he turned to the palace concubine who said that she was lucky enough to get something wonderful, and asked earnestly: "Sister Libin, do you want it?"
Libi was stunned. She didn't expect Lihua to ask so straightforwardly, revealing her thoughts in front of everyone.
But Wu Meiren’s eyes are sincere. Could it be that Wu Meiren can’t withstand the pressure and wants to give her the hairpin?
After all, she is a concubine, and Wu Meiren wants to please her, and at the same time, it is normal for her to show her generosity and respect for sisters in front of the Queen Mother.
Thinking of this, Li Bin's heart beat a little faster, and she couldn't hide her joy. She just said politely: "Who doesn't want a good thing?"
She thought that if she said this, Pear Blossom would give it up even if she was reluctant to part with it. When the time came, she refused, and finally reluctantly accepted it, and then returned a second-rate product, showing the deep love between sisters.
Sure enough, after she finished speaking, she saw Wu Meiren stroking the hairpin, turning her back to the palace concubine, why: "Then this hairpin..." The tail of her words was stretched out, as if she was extremely reluctant to give up, and as if she was doing something difficult.
