Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Chapter 1448: Gifts



Situ Dieer and Xuexue exchanged a glance and simultaneously burst into laughter.

"Hmm, for a first attempt, this embroidery isn't bad at all. Lady Li has quite a knack for it."

Lady Li grinned widely upon hearing this and said, "I think so too."

Still beaming, she handed the embroidery to a maid, saying, "Quickly, put this embroidery away. When the Prince's birthday comes, I want to gift it to him to make him happy."

Xuexue almost died laughing. Wouldn't gifting such an embroidery just invite ridicule?

"Sister! This embroidery is nice, but since it's your first work, it lacks a little something. Maybe you should pick another gift for the Prince," Xuexue suggested tactfully.

"Yes, yes, gifting the first piece of embroidery to the Prince would seem a bit hasty."

"Exactly! So, I suggest you choose another gift."

"Very well."

Lady Li finally gave up the idea of giving the embroidery to the Prince.

Situ Dieer looked at Lady Li and then at Situ Xuexue, her expression strange, as if she wanted to say something but stopped.

After being looked at several times, Lady Li couldn't help but ask, "Sister Dieer, why are you looking at us like that?"

Situ Dieer spoke softly: "Lady Li, you look older than our elder sister, why do you call her elder sister...?"

"Oh, so that's what it is, haha...!" Lady Li covered her mouth with her sleeve, chuckling: "We address each other by rank in the mansion. Your elder sister ranks higher than I do, so naturally, I call her sister."

Situ Dieer finally realized that the hierarchy changes after marriage.

Xuexue was someone who couldn't stay idle. After chatting with them for a while, she wanted to take Zi Xia out, but with Situ Dieer around, it was not quite convenient.

Zi Xia walked in from outside and whispered into Xuexue's ear, "Eldest Miss, the carriage is ready. It's time to set out."

The Eldest Miss was not an ordinary woman; she had her own business outside. As Xuexue's personal maid, Zi Xia was naturally well aware of this.

Xuexue glanced at Situ Dieer, who was happily chatting with Lady Li.

Leaving this scheming Situ Dieer at the War Prince's place made Xuexue worried about what trouble she might stir up.

But she couldn't let her prevent her from handling her own matters.

After much thought, Xuexue stood up: "Sister Dieer, I have something to do outside. You stay here and chat with Lady Li. I'll be back soon."

Upon hearing this, Situ Dieer looked up at her in surprise and blurted out, "Elder sister, didn't you go out yesterday? Why are you going out again today? Now that you're married, it's different from before. You can't always be going out and showing your face everywhere; the Prince won't be pleased."

Situ Dieer used to be introverted, always appearing docile and kind in front of others, never causing trouble openly.

But now she's ventured into the War Prince's Mansion alone and even dared to scold her openly. What had happened to make this normally behind-the-scenes planner suddenly shed her disguise? Xuexue couldn't figure it out.

"Third sister is right, but some matters require my personal attention," Xuexue replied.

Situ Dieer: "Then come back early. I wouldn't want it to be as late as last night."

Lady Li looked surprised: "Sister, did you come back late last night?"

Situ Dieer: "Indeed, I had already gone to bed, and sister wasn't back yet!"
