    Ada had to suppress her anger and force a smile. “Phoebe, ire,e here.”


    Phoebe walked gracefully to Evans, and handed him the gift box in her hand.


    ?


    She smiled sweetly. “Grandpa, happy birthday! I wish you all the best!”


    Evans took the gift box and opened it. Inside was a statue of Buddha made of high-quality jade. The carving craftsmanship was exquisite and lifelike.


    Evans believed in Buddhism, so he liked this gift very much.


    Evans was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear.


    Everyone’s eyes turned to ire automatically.


    Phoebe lowered her eyes, and a cunning gleam shed across her eyes.


    ire’s gift had vanished. She’d love to see what gift this rural girl could give!


    Under public stare, ire walked up to Evans slowly, holding a piece of cloth in her hand, her face as pale as paper.


    From beginning to end, she didn’t say a word.


    Seeing this, the crowd whispered to each other.


    “Why is she holding a piece of cloth?”


    “Does she want to give her grandfather a piece of rag as his birthday present? That’s ridiculous!”


    “I’ve long heard that she is rebellious and ill-bred, so the rumors turn out to be true…”


    Ada walked to ire’s side and asked in a low voice. “ire, what’s wrong with you? Where is the gift I prepared for you?”


    ire didn’t respond.


    Phoebe covered her mouth and tittered. “ire, you may not know that Grandpa only wears one brand of clothes. Your piece of cloth is useless. But… I think it can be made into a table mat.”


    Her tone was full of ridicule.


    What an idiot! Did she actually want to give Grandpa this rag as a gift?


    She wanted to watch ire make a fool of herself, and ire didn’t disappoint her at all.


    Interesting…


    At this moment, Evans drew a long face and didn’t take the cloth.


    Allen was very angry and snapped. “ire! No matter how ridiculously you behave, I have never med you, but on such an important asion today, how dare you still mess around? This is outrageous!”


    Everyone pointed at ire, looking contemptuous.


    Ada wished that she could find a hole in the ground to hide in.


    What a disgrace!


    “Wait a minute!”


    Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, “This seems to be… Elder Robinson’s cloth!”


    “Elder Robinson?!”


    Hearing this name, everyone was shocked.


    Someone sneered. “What are you talking about? How can this girl have Elder Robinson’s cloth? Even if the king wants a piece of cloth Elder Robinson made, he has to ask again and again to get it!”


    “It’s said that in the Ye Kingdom, anything can be bought with money, except for Elder Robinson’s cloth!”


    Being questioned, that person was annoyed. He went forward to grab the cloth from ire’s hand and found thebel sewn on the inside.


    Thebel was green, sewn with the letter ‘R’ in gold thread.


    Seeing it, the crowdughed.


    “What can thisbel represent? Anyone can counterfeit it!”


    The man smiled. “Counterfeit? Come smell it.”


    Smell? What could they smell from it?


    Curious, many people gathered around and sniffed carefully.


    “This fragrance…”


    “Yes, this is the fragrance of Carefree Grass.” The man said loudly, “As we all know, Elder Robinson likes to makebels with Carefree Grass. He usually soaks gold thread in the juice of the grass and then embroiders the letter ‘R’ with the gold thread on thebel. Carefree Grass’s scent is unique, and even the best vorist can’t make this scent.”


    At this time, someone said tremblingly, “I… I can prove that this is the fragrance of Carefree Grass. I had the honor to smell it once, and I will never forget it!”
