Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 11: It's true, this is genuine!

Jiang Ning casually handed the bowl over.

Being secretive about it would only raise suspicions.

After all, it's just a broken cat bowl.

She didn't care about it, but in the eyes of Fifth Daughter and Sixth Miss, it was another matter.

"This... seems to be genuine." Jiang Yan muttered to herself, "I once saw it when I went out with my elder brother."

"How is that possible?" Jiang Yuan stubbornly denied.

But deep down, she was already wavering.

Although the two sisters were from a humble background, the Jiang Family had a scholarly reputation and educated their girls equally, so they would be taught by female scholars.

Both of these girls had experience in art and calligraphy and had seen a fair share of the world.

Jiang Yuan carefully inspected it for a long time, and the more she looked, the more convinced she became that it was genuine. However, she couldn't bring herself to believe that such a valuable item would end up in the hands of poor Jiang Ning.

And being used as a cat bowl!

This was too shocking.

"This must be a counterfeit!" Jiang Yuan insisted.

"I don't think so, it seems genuine to me." Jiang Yan whispered softly.

"What do you know? There are skilled counterfeiters out there who produce replicas that look even more genuine than the real thing. How could you tell the difference?" Jiang Yuan sneered, "Besides, I heard that Master Xuanyun's purple gold bowl is in the royal collection. How could it appear in her hands? Did she steal it from the palace?"

"But I heard from my brother that the genuine purple gold bowl has a unique mark at the bottom of the bowl. A symbol that glows with a golden light that no counterfeit can imitate."

Jiang Yuan scoffed: "There's no way this broken bowl has it."

"Let's take a look then."

"Fine, I'll look at it." As she spoke, Jiang Yuan flipped over the bowl.

At the base of the bowl, there was a nail-sized character that glowed with a faint, iridescent light, contrasting sharply with the dull grey of the bowl itself.

Jiang Yuan was stunned.

She instinctively tried to scratch at it.

But it was imprinted inside the bowl, not carved or painted on.

It seemed like a natural golden symbol that emanated from the bowl itself.

Jiang Yan cried out, "Ah! It's real! It's really there! This is the real one!"

"What are you shouting for!" Jiang Yuan's heart was pounding.

The bowl was actually genuine!

Just the bowl alone was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.

And Jiang Ning, this poor girl, actually used it as a cat bowl??

Miaow—

Miaomiao perched on Jiang Ning's lap and cried out.

Jiang Ning reached out, "My cat is hungry, give me the cat bowl."

Jiang Yuan glared at her without saying a word.

"Fifth Daughter, this is just a cat bowl. Surely you wouldn't even want to snatch a cat bowl?"

"Since it's a cat bowl, why not sell it to me?" Jiang Yuan shifted her gaze.

"In your dreams! How dare you try to snatch a food bowl from my Miaomiao." Jiang Ning grabbed the bowl and commanded Chunlai to prepare some cat food for Miaomiao.

Jiang Yuan watched in disbelief as the servant took away the cat bowl, brought it back filled with cat food, and instinctively clutched her heart.

Heartache!

Jiang Ning looked at their expressions and thought, these two simpletons actually believed that the cat bowl was a genuine item?

It seemed that the Jiang Family was not as refined as the rumors claim.

At that moment, two old women carried a large box in and asked, "Seventh Miss, where should we put this? The Old Master asked us to bring it here."

Jiang Ning glanced at it and recognized it as the box containing the miscellaneous items from Old Man Li, and casually said, "Put it in my room, I'll sort it out slowly."

She remembered that there were a few nice paintings inside, suitable for hanging in the study as a background wall.

The old women agreed and carried the box over but were stopped by Jiang Yuan.

With ill intentions, Jiang Yuan sized up the box, "This must be filled with your clothes and accessories, right, Seventh Sister? Let me see what you used to wear and what you used to have."
