Her sister hadn't mentioned in the letter that she would come with them, so she only prepared Liu Qian's clothes.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qian exchanged a glance with Deng, then stood up and said softly, "Thank you, auntie."
There was undisguised happiness in Mrs. Deng's eyes. Her sister was marrying so well, so the clothes she prepared must be good. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and gold makes the Buddha. As long as Qian'er dressed herself well, there would be no worries about finding a suitable husband.
By then, she will be able to enjoy the care of servants like her sister, with clothes to wear and food to eat provided for her.
"Thank you, sister," Deng said, stepping forward and holding Madam Qin's hand with a touched look on her face. "We are an orphan and a widow, and we have spent all our money on the journey. We are so grateful for your help, sister."
Mrs. Qin was not a fool, so how could she not hear the hidden meaning in her words?
She pulled Deng's hand away and said, "Don't worry, I will pay for your clothes, so you don't have to worry."
This was exactly what Deng meant and she wiped away her tears.
"If I didn't have a sister, I wouldn't know what I would do."
"Sister and Qian'er, go and have some rest."
Watching the two of them leave, Mrs. Qin rubbed her temples.
She knew that her sister was short-sighted, and she followed Liu Qian to the capital because she was probably worried that her sister would not care about Liu Qian's affairs.
In fact, even if her sister didn't come with her, she would try her best to find a good marriage for Liu Qian, but the prerequisite was that the two of them behaved themselves.
"Qianqian, you should go back to your room and rest quickly."
Qin Qianqian nodded and left with her maid.
"Madam, didn't you say that Liu Qian would come by herself?"
Lord Qin and Madam Qin returned to their room, washed up, and sat on the couch before asking.
"That's what the letter said. I don't know why it's here again."
Mrs. Qin also looked helpless.
"I have no objection to her coming, but Madam can't let Qianqian be wronged because of the two of them. Liu Qian and her mother don't look like simple people. Look at what she said at the dinner table, she was clearly trying to instigate."
Qianqian is simple-minded and easily impulsive. If Liu Qian ever has any bad intentions and plots against her daughter, her daughter will definitely be the one who suffers.
"How does the master know that they have ulterior motives?"
Madam Qin looked at Lord Qin with a smile, "Could it be that the master has been staring at these two?"
"What nonsense," Lord Qin stood up and let Madam Qin lie on the bed, then he lay down himself.
"I have been in the court for so many years. If I can't judge people correctly, how can I serve the emperor?"
In fact, he was prejudiced against the two because of something that happened many years ago. It was because of that incident that Deng severed ties with the Deng family, but his wife didn't know about it.
"Don't worry," Madam Qin pulled the quilt over her and said softly, "I'm not the kind of person who would let my daughter suffer for others. If they really don't behave, I will send them back. I will never let my daughter suffer."
…
The next day, Yu Yiluo woke up with messy hair and panda eyes.
He deeply regretted coming to the Sixth Princess's house and believing her lies and sleeping with her.
The Sixth Princess woke up and stretched, feeling a resentful gaze falling on her face. She paused in her stretching and looked up to see Yu Yiluo with messy hair.
"Luo'er, are you not sleeping well in your bed?"
Yu Yiluo leaned over and angrily stretched out her little hand to pinch her face.
[What the hell is this bed? I was supposed to sleep in it perfectly, didn't I? And yet, it nearly crushed me to death.]
[A three-second silence for the person who will share your bed in the future. Your sleeping posture is truly terrible.]
The Sixth Princess felt a little guilty as she pinched her face.
"Luo'er, my sister was wrong. Don't be angry. I'll take you to the market to buy some delicious food today, okay?"
Seeing that she still refused to let go, the Sixth Princess continued to coax her, "Then Luo'er, you can pick whatever you want from my room, okay?"
Yu Yiluo let go of her hand, yawned, lay back on the bed, and pulled the quilt to cover herself.
"Go away, I want to sleep."
The Sixth Princess got up from the bed and said, "Okay, I'll have someone prepare something delicious for Luo'er to eat when she wakes up."
Yu Yiluo didn't sleep well last night and woke up at noon.
The Sixth Princess helped her wash and brought the food specially prepared for her by the kitchen.
"Luo'er, eat. After that, I'll take you to the Qin Mansion to play."
Yu Yiluo's eyes lit up and she nodded.
…
at the same time.
Qin Qianqian changed her clothes and was about to leave the house, but was stopped by Liu Qian when she passed by the main hall.
"Cousin, where are you going?"
Yesterday she heard Qin Qianqian say that she had returned from Sister Xue, so she made some inquiries today and learned that Sister Xue was actually a princess, her aunt was Concubine De, and her cousin was a prince. Of course, she had to get to know such noble people well.
The highest-ranking official in the county was the county magistrate. Now that she had arrived in the capital, the powerful people everywhere had broadened her horizons and also changed her mind.
If she could marry the prince, would she not have to go back to the county?
Although this idea is a bit unrealistic, it may not be impossible through Qin Qianqian's connections.
Qin Qianqian stopped and said, "Just take a walk."
Mrs. Deng rolled her eyes and suggested, "Why not take your cousin with you? Let her get familiar with the capital."
Madam Qin looked at Qin Qianqian's attire and knew that she was going to meet the Fourth Prince.
"Qianqian is busy, doesn't Qianer want to see new clothes?"
Liu Qian pursed her lips and smiled. Madam Qin said this because she didn't want Qin Qianqian to take her out. She turned and said, "How about Sister Qianqian help me pick out some clothes before going out?"
Qin Qianqian walked in and sat next to Mrs. Qin.
Soon, a nanny came in with two maids holding the finished clothes.
"Qian'er, take a look and keep the ones you like."
Liu Qian stood up and looked at the clothes in the girl's hand. She suppressed her excitement and pretended to be reserved as she walked forward to touch the more fancy clothes. She turned to Qin Qianqian and said:
"Cousin Qianqian, what do you think of this one?"
Qin Qianqian glanced at the clothes she pointed at, then looked at her again and shook her head, saying, "This one doesn't suit you."
Liu Qian has yellow skin, and if she wears this dark purple floral dress, she will look particularly tacky.
"What about this one?"
Liu Qian pointed to one of the equally fancy pink clothes and asked.
"It's not suitable. Cousin, you can pick those two plain ones."
Qin Qianqian rejected both of the pieces she liked. Liu Qian believed that Qin Qianqian was worried that she would steal her limelight if she wore these two pieces, so she said they were not suitable.
She has worn enough plain clothes. Now that she finally has the chance to choose, she naturally wants to pick some brightly colored ones to please her. What's the point of those plain ones?
“I prefer these two.”
Liu Qian looked at Madam Qin, "Aunt, can I keep these two sets?"
Seeing her like this, Qin Qianqian rolled her eyes in her heart. She wanted her to help choose, and then she didn't like the item after she picked it. She must be crazy and was wasting her time.
In fact, Mrs. Qin also felt that these two sets were not suitable for Liu Qian, but since she insisted, she just let her go.
"If you like it, stay."
