What appeared after the unwrapping was the worn-out, decrepit scrolls. It appeared to be taken grabbed out of a random antique shop. The sort that would charm the ignorant and be kept around for cheap decoration.
"This..." Ye Zan appeared as if she was trying hard not to say something. "Sister-in-law, was it you who told Chen Yi that Mother-in-law is a Buddhist devotee?" She asked as she gave those scriptures a worried glance.
Li Bai Yuan's eyes dimmed.
It was alright if Ye Zan had not said it. But with those words, Ye Zan had pinned the nails in the coffin. Anyone could extrapolate the story. Li Shanguaan told Chen Yi that Li Bai Yuan was a Buddhist devote. Chen Yi, in order to get to Li Bai Yuan's good side, went around to randomly buy some scriptures and presented them as a gift.
How facile and insincere.
Without actually being a believer.
Even Li Shanguaan was roped in.
