At this time Qin Yu also came.

The two people from the Qin family, the four people from the Li family, and the five people from the Shen family needed to move the table in the hall out and put it together with the table outside before they could sit down.

Shen Li and Li Erya were changing shoes in the room at this time. The embroidered shoes were also embroidered by Liu Dahua and Qin Yueying. She wore a light pink dress and embroidered shoes of the same color, and also combed her hair into a beautiful bun.

With these blessings, Shen Li instantly became confident about her appearance, especially her slender waist, which was so thin that it could be grasped with a hand when tightened with a belt.

She used to have a thin waist but she didn't look feminine. Now she is no longer malnourished, her figure is slowly developing, and her feminine features are becoming more obvious.

"How is it? Sister Erya, does it look good?"

Li Erya took a look and said, "Not bad, much better looking than before."

"So if I were walking down the street, would I be considered a beauty?"

"In our county town, right?"

Seeing her uncertain look, Shen Li lost some confidence: "Forget it, I look like this anyway, so it doesn't matter whether I look like this or not."

"No, Ali, what I mean is that I have never been to the provincial capital, so I don't know what the girls there look like, but in our county, you are definitely considered pretty."

"Really?"

Li Erya nodded sincerely: "Really."

"Okay, I believe you, let's get out quickly, they must be waiting anxiously."

The two left the room.

Shen Li found that everyone was already sitting at the table.

But what's wrong with them? They're all looking at her. Is it because her outfit is weird?

She slowly and nervously walked to the table and sat down: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Qin Yueying glanced at Qin Yu. This boy stared at her without blinking. It seemed like there was a chance. So she smiled and said, "Of course it's because you are pretty, A-li. Our A-li looks really beautiful when she is dressed like this."

Shen Li didn't quite believe it: "Big brother, second brother, third brother, is what aunt said true?"

"Yes, Ali is very beautiful today." Shen Han praised.

"Very good." Shen Liang affirmed.

"Today is very different from usual. It seems that women should dress up more." Shen Xing said proudly.

"Third brother, just admit that I look better today than usual, will you die?"

Shen Xing touched his nose and said, "Today is your birthday, I won't bother with you."

"Our Ali has grown up, so he is naturally good-looking, and he will become more and more beautiful in the future." Liu Dahua said.

As Li the Hunter was a man, it was not convenient for him to say anything about the woman's appearance, and Li's mother was not good at speaking polite words, so she did not say anything.

Li Erya had already praised him in the room, and now she was sitting at the table without saying anything.

At this time, Shen Li found Li Daya entering the yard holding a quilt.

"A-li, this is a little gift from our family. It is said that a brocade quilt should be given as a gift for a coming-of-age ceremony, which symbolizes a noble and beautiful future. I hope you don't mind it."

Li Erya also said, "We three did this together. It was very hard."

Mother Li also spoke up: "That's because you don't know how to sew. Your sister and I didn't find it difficult."

Li Erya pursed her lips and said nothing.

Shen Li took the quilt and said, "Thank you, Sister Daya, Uncle Li and Aunt Li."

"Why don't you thank me?" Li Erya said dissatisfiedly.

Glancing at her, Shen Li said, "You don't have to thank me."

"Oh."

Everyone laughed when they saw how good their relationship was.

Putting the quilt in the room, Shen Li came out and sat down: "Let's eat quickly."

"Not yet, we haven't given the gifts yet." Shen Han said, and took out his gift. There was no box in it, just wrapped in a handkerchief.

Shen Li opened it and saw that it was a silver hairpin. It was very delicately made and it didn't look cheap. She usually gave him pocket money, but if she wanted to buy a hairpin like this, she had to save money: "Brother, this is very expensive, right? You..."

"Don't worry, I didn't save any money to treat myself badly. This is what I earned from copying books for others."

If this were the case, wouldn't it delay his study time? But it was already like this, and it was for her, so there was nothing more to say.

"Thank you, brother. I like it very much, but please don't copy books for others in the future."

"know."

At this time Shen Liang also took out a wooden box.

Shen Li opened it and saw that it was also a hairpin, but it was made of wood with daffodils engraved on the head. This was probably meant to match her clothes, and it should have been made by Shen Liang himself.

"Brother, I like it very much, thank you."

"No, it's not worth much."

Shen Li said coquettishly: "What does it have to do with money? Isn't it the thought that's important?"

Shen Liang nodded.

Shen Xing took out his gift.

Shen Li looked at the rectangular box. Could it be a hairpin? She opened it and saw that it was indeed a jade hairpin. It was very simple, and the head of the hairpin was shaped like a heart. "Thank you, Third Brother. I like it too."

Shen Xing felt a little uncomfortable: "I bought this with the money I saved from hunting. It's not expensive, and the quality of the jade isn't very good. When I have more money in the future, I'll get you a better one."

Looking at the three hairpins, Shen Li was very touched: "No need, this one is good enough."

Shen Xing nodded: "Okay, as long as you like it, but you received three hairpins, why don't you choose one to wear?"

Everyone looked at Shen Li, to see which one she would choose?

"This one suits my outfit best today, Auntie, please put it on me." It's impossible to watch her having fun.

Everyone saw that she was holding the one that Shen Liang gave her, and there was nothing wrong with that, after all, it really matched her clothes today.

But the corners of Shen Liang's mouth seemed to curl up.

Shen Xing, who was stirring up trouble, curled his lips, but Shen Han showed no expression.

Everyone's gifts have been given, except Qin Yu.

Qin Yueying put the hairpin in Shen Li's hand and looked at him: "Yu'er, where's your gift?"

Originally Shen Li didn't feel comfortable looking at him, fearing that he would think that he was asking him for a gift, but when Qin Yueying asked, he looked over curiously.

Qin Yu took out a piece of paper from his arms.

Shen Li opened it and saw that it was full of drug names. It should be a prescription.

"This is the whitening recipe I developed. If you drink it for a period of time according to the recipe, your skin will naturally become whiter."

This is great. He is a disciple of a miracle doctor. This whitening recipe will definitely work. I just don’t know how white she can get. Never mind. Just drink it and we’ll see.

"Thank you. I will definitely drink it. But how do you know I want to become white?"

"Guessed." This was the scent he smelled from her body, which contained whitening herbs, so he guessed that she wanted to become whiter.

Shen Li didn't believe it. She must have revealed some clues that he discovered. Could it be facial cream? She didn't use anything else except this.

This might have a medicinal smell, but it shouldn't be strong. Could he have smelled it?

"Doctor Qin, can you show me the prescription? I also want to..." Li Erya said a little embarrassedly.

"Give it to Shen Li. She's the one who decides."

"Don't worry, I'll get some medicine for you and Sister Daya when I get it."

Li Erya nodded.

Finally all the gifts were given out and everyone started to eat and drink some wine.

Shen Xing was very fond of wine and drank a little too much.

"Third brother, that's enough, stop drinking." Shen Han said.

"Brother, don't worry about me. We are at home anyway. I will fall asleep as soon as I get drunk."

Shen Liang knew that he had been feeling a little depressed these days: "Brother, let him drink."

"Yes, I tell you, big brother, you must study hard and pass the imperial examination, so that Ali will not be bullied."
