Of course, there was a reason why Aunt Mo thought this way.
Other than the members of the Jian family, the only people who could freely enter and exit the Jian Residence were her, Aunt An, and her daughter, Mo Shiyun.
This gift was definitely not prepared by the members of the Jian family. There was no need for them to leave it at the door.
Thus, the only person left was her daughter, Mo Shiyun.
And the gift happened to be the same thing that she had mentioned to her daughter before.
Aunt Mo didn't expect that Jian Yiling would come back to the Jian Residence. Furthermore, she didn't expect that Jian Yiling would give her brother a gift in this situation.
In Aunt Mo's opinion, with Jian Yiling's temper, Jian Yuncheng wouldn't be able to coax her. Furthermore, Jian Yuncheng wouldn't take the initiative to give Jian Yuncheng a birthday gift.
As for why she left the gift at the door instead of personally handing it to Jian Yuncheng, it was most likely because her daughter felt embarrassed. When she had asked her daughter to prepare a gift, her daughter had repeatedly refused.
When Mo Shiyun saw the bright smile on her mother's face, she guessed that her mother had bought the gift.
Her mother probably knew that she had been busy with her studies recently. As a result, she hadn't prepared the gift yet. Thus, she took the initiative to buy the finished product for her. Then, she lied and said that she had made it herself.
Mo Shiyun didn't think that it was good to pretend that she had made it herself.
Her mother should have discussed this with her in advance. Now, she was embarrassed.
But after all, this was her mother's good intentions, and her mother was doing this for her own good …
Furthermore, if she told the truth now, her mother would definitely be embarrassed.
Mo Shiyun struggled for a while before she slowly lowered her head.
She didn't deny it.
When she saw Mo Shiyun lower her head, she assumed that she was embarrassed.
Wen Nuan also remembered that tomorrow was her eldest son's birthday.
These days, Wen Nuan's mind was filled with thoughts of her daughter and youngest son.
She had forgotten about her eldest son. She had actually asked an outsider to remind them that their eldest son's birthday was coming.
Wen Nuan had an apologetic expression on her face.
Jian Yunnao hadn't been in the mood for the past two days. However, when he heard that it was his eldest brother's birthday, he still made up for it:
"Brother, happy birthday. I didn't prepare a gift. I'll make it up next year."
His tone was low and he still didn't seem to be energetic.
However, Jian Yuncheng acted as if he hadn't heard Jian Yunnao's words. He lowered his head and continued to look at the sweater and scarf in his hands.
The workmanship of these two items was very good, especially the embroidery on the scarf.
The scarf was made out of pure black wool. It was embroidered with silver-gray needles and threads of different shades to form a picture of mountains and rivers, as well as a soaring eagle.
The implication of the name was grand. It was just right for Jian Yuncheng's current situation.
The embroidery was not large, but the details were very exquisite. The eagle's facial features and feathers were vivid and lifelike.
After a while, she raised her head to look at Mo Shiyun and Aunt Mo.
"The embroidery on this scarf is very exquisite. Did you embroider it yourself?" Jian Yuncheng asked.
Mo Shiyun lowered her head even more. She didn't dare to admit it. However, she didn't deny it either.
"Do you also know how to embroider?" Jian Yuncheng asked.
When Aunt Mo saw that her daughter wasn't replying, she hurriedly replied for her, "I used to do embroidery. Sometimes, I would take on jobs in a Hanfu shop. Shiyun also learned a bit from me. Sometimes, when I'm too busy, she helps me out."
It was true that Mo Shiyun could embroider.
Jian Yuncheng took in the reactions of the mother and daughter. The expression on his face didn't change. However, the temperature in his eyes gradually decreased.
His thumb was stroking the reverse side of the mountain and river embroidered painting.
There was a name embroidered on it: Jian Yiling.
