863 Getting Married (4)
âWhat do you know? This thing is called a compass!â Luo Tan said, âItâs different from the one used in the military camp. This is very accurate. Itâs something from the far east. Itâs said that itâs only used in the fleet now. Cousin Ling brought ten back and said that he wanted the craftsmen to make more for the army. It took me a lot of effort to get one. If you donât want it, forget it!â
Shen Miao quickly closed the box. âThank you.â
Luo Tan curled her lips. âLittle Cousin, you donât lack anything to begin with, and Prince Rui gave you such a big betrothal gift. If I give you jewelry, Iâll only embarrass myself, so I thought Iâd give you something more practical. Take this compass. You are unfamiliar with the Daliang Dynasty. If you lost your way one day, it could come in handy.â
Shen Miao smiled. âThat makes sense. This is more special than gold and silver jewelry.â
!!
Luo Tan looked at Feng Anning smugly. âMiss Feng, what did you prepare? Show us. If itâs gold, silver, or jewelry, take it back. Itâs too boring.â
Feng Anning glared at her and said indignantly, âWhatâs a compass worth? Our Feng family has everything. Why would I give Shen Miao those tacky things?â
She opened her box and took out a small bottle from it. She said, âThere are three Guiyuan Pills here. Do you know about Guiyuan Pills? Itâs something made by a great psychician of the previous dynasty that can extend oneâs life. Itâs priceless.â She placed the bottle and the box in Shen Miaoâs hand and said, âWhile you are in Ming Qi, youâve been harmed a few times. I think itâs more likely to happen when you go to the Daliang Dynasty. If anything god forbid should happen to you, just take one. It can save your life.â Then, she added, âBut I think you can live for a long time.â
Shen Miao smiled. âThank you.â Feng Anning wasnât good with words, but her intention was good. Fu Xiuyi had once bribed an aide he wanted to rope in with one Guiyuan Pill. One pill was worth a talent, which showed how valuable it was. Feng Anning was really generous to give her three pills.
When Feng Anning heard this, her eyes turned red. She said, âI donât know if weâll be able to see each other again in this life. You donât have many friends in Ming Qi. Since we are friends, I naturally canât give you something shabby to embarrass youâ¦â As she spoke, she choked and continued, âItâs not that I canât bear to part with you, but I just feel that you canât return a gift when I get married. Itâs really not a good bargainâ¦â
Shen Miao was caught between laughter and tears and said, âWhen you get married, Iâll definitely get someone to send you a gift. Iâll also write to you from time to time.â
Only then did Feng Anning feel better.
Shen Miao suddenly thought of something and took out a letter from her sleeve. She said to Feng Anning, âI have one now. After my wedding is over, read this letter and let your brother read it.â
Luo Tan and Feng Anning were stunned at the same time. Luo Tan smiled and said, âLittle Cousin, do you feel sorry for Brother Feng? Back then, you didnât agree to Brother Fengâs marriage proposal, so you specially wrote a letter to express your apology?â After saying that, she shook her head. âBut why did you let Anning read it?â
Shen Miao said, âIf youâre in trouble in the future, look for my brother. My brother will help.â Shen Miao remembered that in her previous life, the Feng family did not have a good ending. Feng Anning even married a guy with a human face and a beast heart. In the end, she died at a young age. In this life, she and Feng Anning were friends after all. She could only write a letter to remind the Feng family of everything. If Feng Anning showed this letter to her parents, they would only think that Feng Anning was fooling around, but it was different if Feng Zixian showed it. After all, Feng Zixian had already become an official. Mr. Feng believed in Feng Zixianâs talent and would treat this letter seriously.
