Chapter 59: A Piece of Rag (A Slap on the Face)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ada had to suppress her anger and force a smile. “Phoebe, Claire, come 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 Claire automatically.

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

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

Under public stare, Claire 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 Claire’s side and asked in a low voice. “Claire, what’s wrong with you? Where is the gift I prepared for you?”

Claire didn’t respond.

Phoebe covered her mouth and tittered. “Claire, 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 Claire make a fool of herself, and Claire 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. “Claire! No matter how ridiculously you behave, I have never blamed you, but on such an important occasion today, how dare you still mess around? This is outrageous!”

Everyone pointed at Claire, 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 Claire’s hand and found the label sewn on the inside.

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

Seeing it, the crowd laughed.

“What can this label 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 make labels 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 the label. Carefree Grass’s scent is unique, and even the best flavorist 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!”
