3366 Unboxing

She didn't dare to speak loudly, only mumbled to herself.

Naturally, everyone else was also craning their necks, full of curiosity, wanting to see what was inside the small box the Crown Princess presented.

The aristocratic young ladies, having just gone through several "calamities," were all exceptionally well-behaved this time. Not one dared to whisper complaints, though their eyes were filled with curiosity.

Such a small box, could it really contain some rare treasure?

Old Master Mu chuckled, reaching out to take the small box.

The box was sealed tightly, revealing nothing from the outside, not even a hint of scent.

The Old Master held the box in his hand, looking very pleased, nodding repeatedly, "Good, good, you are thoughtful..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Mu Rouxuan quickly walked forward, bowed, and said, "Grandfather, your granddaughter presents a painting of a Hundred Children and Thousand Grandchildren Mechanism. This painting contains three different formations, capable of withstanding fatal attacks at critical moments."

With that, she clapped her hands twice, and someone immediately carried over a screen-like mechanism drawing, placing it on the ground.

A complete mechanism drawing appeared before everyone.

The formation diagram depicted numerous boy and girl figures, each with a different expression, their eyes gleaming. At first glance, the dense imagery was somewhat unsettling...

Qiao Mu took two steps back, pulling on Mo Lian's hand.

Mo Lian took her small hand in his, nodded to the Old Master, and was about to lead his little wife back to their seats.

Unexpectedly, Mu Rouxuan turned to them and said in a calm voice, "Since it's a gift presentation, the gift should naturally be shown to everyone. Just like the jade Buddha's hand from the fifth family."

Mu Rouxuan pointed to the jade Buddha's hand that the Fifth Madam had ordered to be brought up, and then pointed to the gifts from the other families. "And our mechanism drawing, these are all things that everyone can appreciate."

The Fifth Madam stood there awkwardly, not saying a word. She had borrowed money from the Pink Pavilion to buy this jade Buddha's hand; it really wasn't worth praising...

Qiao Mu frowned, looking up at Mu Rouxuan.

Mu Xingchen had already stepped forward, glaring unhappily at Mu Rouxuan. "Rouxuan, step back."

Mu Rouxuan stood in front of the guests, her face cold, not moving. She said indifferently, "How can something contained in a box be appreciated by others?"

Mu Jinglao, who was having a tall box carried forward, coughed a few muffled times. He glanced at Mu Rouxuan beside him and said unhappily, "You meddle too much! What do you care what gifts others give? Just present yours and step back!"

My gift is also in a box! Who stipulated that gifts must be unboxed in public? Bah!

Mu Rouxuan coldly curled her lips. "Afraid to unbox something in a box? How can everyone appreciate it then? Sixth Uncle, do you think I'm wrong? Then give me a reason to convince me."

Mu Jinglao was so angry that smoke was practically coming out of his head. He casually waved his fan and gave two cold laughs. "I'm your Sixth Uncle! You're being disrespectful, step back."

Mu Rouxuan didn't move an inch.

Old Master Mu couldn't help but frown. Just as he was about to mediate, he heard Mu Rouxuan say, "Someone, unbox the gift."

At this, Mu Jinglao jumped up. Seeing two or three servants run forward and begin to unbox his large gift, he angrily pointed his folding fan at Mu Rouxuan and shouted, "You, you!"
