Forensic Imperial Concubine

The next morning, Harper went to the Peony House to visit Mavis.

It was normal for Mavis to see Harper at such an early hour, so she wasn't surprised at all. "Harper, you've been coming here earlier and earlier recently."

"Am I bothering you, Grandma?" Harper asked as she helped Mavis clean up.

"No. I mean you could be getting more sleep. You don't have to come here so early just for greetings." It was true that Mavis loved her from the bottom of her heart and she patted Harper's head. If Harper didn't deceive her, Mavis would never thought of sending her to the Imperial Palace.

"It's my pleasure to serve you, Grandma." There wasn't any sign of impatience on Harper's face as she skillfully and carefully helped Mavis freshen up and served her at the dining table.

"You're such a filial girl," Mavis said and sighed. "Have a seat. Let's eat together."

"Yes, Grandma." They then sat next to each other. Harper served Mavis at the dining table and she enjoyed the meal very much.

As they finished their meal, Harper brought a cup of tea for Mavis to rinse her mouth. "Grandma, Yvonne and Felicia are getting married. Mother asked me to give them gifts, but I don't know what I should give them. Do you have any idea?"

A flash went through Mavis' eyes when she heard Harper. "Did Sue ask you to prepare gifts?"

"Yvonne and Felicia are going to get married. I'm the elder sister and I'm supposed to give them gifts. But over the years, I don't have much savings and I've been squandering the money. It's lucky that Grandma took care of my late mother's dowry. Otherwise, I would have squandered it. Now Yvonne and Felicia will be married to His Highness. I don't have anything good and I don't know what I should give them, so please give me a suggestion."

The confusion on Harper's face worried Mavis about her innocence, but she stopped Annie from reminding her.

"What do you want to give them, Harper?" Mavis asked with a smile.

"I'm not good at anything. I only know a bit about medicine. Yvonne's pregnant so I can do my best and help her with my medical skills. But for Felicia..." Harper sighed. "I can't ignore Felicia and favor Yvonne. They're both my sisters, so I have to be fair."

The answer satisfied Mavis. "Yes, you're all sisters. You don't have to do it yourself. I'll help you prepare the gifts."

"No way!" Harper refused with a shake of her head. "Mother asked me to prepare the gifts myself to show my sincerity. If she knew Grandma prepared the gifts for me, she'd be unhappy."

But you won't be able to afford expensive gifts." Mavis took her hand. "How about this? I'll pick things from your mother's dowry and let someone bring them to Yvonne and Felicia as their wedding gifts. Since your mother's dowry will also be your dowry in the future, it's not a big deal for you to give things to your
