Chapter 457
Old Madam Qin seemed to have taken some miraculous medicine, seeing how her depression in the past few days was swept away, looking refreshed as if she had become several years younger.
“Jiu’er, Madam Xiao, and the County King are fond of you, if you recuperate earnestly, the people in the capital will look up to you in the future.” Old Madam Qin pulled Qin Jiu’s hands smiling.
She has always been worried that Qin Jiu’s past would be looked down on by prominent families and noble madams in the capital, afraid that she would not be able to integrate into the circle in the capital, but seeing the favor she was getting, she could now rest assured in the future.
With the love and protection of Empress Wei, the respect of her husband’s family, and the support of the Marquis of Loyalty, no one would dare to look down on Qin Jiu from now on.
Qin Jiu also smiled and nodded. Gu Zezhi and Madam Xiao were really kind to her.
Old Madam Qin continued long-windedly, “Today’s betrothal gifts are the grandest in the past decades.”
“I only remember that back when the emperor was still the Crown Prince, when he gave the Crown Princess the betrothal gifts it was also this dignified.”
“At that time, it was also like today, people were watching the excitement along the way. The empress was in the Wei mansion in the capital back then…”
Recalling these past events, Old Madam Qin’s eyes shone with excitement and felt that in just a blink of an eye, many years had already passed.
“There’s a saying that when adversity reaches its extreme it will turn into good times.” Old Madam Qin once again patted Qin Jiu’s hands. “You girl ah, are a blessed one. What you suffered in the past has turned into a blessing today.”
After saying this, Old Madam Qin recited the Buddha’s name, twirling the string of Buddha beads in her hand. “I’m going to Huangjue Temple tomorrow to offer incense and repay my prayer.”
Qin Jiu had been cooped up in the mansion for two days and had been wanting to go out for some air. Smiling, she said. “Grandma, I’ll accompany you.” fr(e)ewebnov(e)l.com
After accompanying Old Madam Qin to Huangjue Temple, Qin Jiu stayed in the mansion and did not go out again.
The wedding was less than half a month away, and although she did not need to embroider her wedding dress, she still had to try it. Trying on the wedding dress once would take half a day, and since there would be some adjustments, she would need to try it repeatedly after the altercation. Just thinking about it made Qin Jiu feel that it was troublesome.
Other matters related to weddings were handled by others. Apart from trying on the wedding dress, Qin Jiu only had to busy herself with her sewing. After a few days, she finally finished Madam Xiao’s shoes.
Qin Jiu felt that her needlework had made rapid progress, and thinking that there were still some days before the wedding she thought of being lazy…ahem, she should make a purse, sachet, and any simple needlework for Gu Zezhi.
Gu Zezhi was afraid that Qin Jiu would feel bored at home so he would come to visit her almost everyday and bought her some gadgets. Yesterday, he brought her snacks from Jin Shiji, today he brought her story books, tomorrow he told her he would bring western dolls, and the day after tomorrow he would buy her a music box… 𝒇𝓻𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝓬𝓸𝓶
Even Qin Zeyu would look forward to it along with her, and every day he would accompany Qin Jiu, as he waited eagerly to see what fun things his brother-in-law would bring to his sister that day.
