Shen Qingshuang specifically brought up this matter with An Ge, partly because it was Shen Qinghe's special instruction, and partly because she hoped to use the store manager's influence to elevate Shen Qinghe's status.
He believed he could rise to great heights in the future, but for now he was just a minor official of the fifth rank. In the capital, anyone on the street could have a background that was more powerful than his.
Upon hearing Shen Qingshuang's words, An Ge instantly understood what he meant. This guy, he should just say what he means; beating around the bush is really annoying.
This is probably why she and Shen Qingshuang had a lot of contact, but they never became good friends.
"I will send a wedding gift on Qinghe's wedding day," An Ge said to Shen Qingshuang.
Shen Qingshuang cupped her hands in thanks to An Ge, "Thank you, Manager."
After he left, An Ge sighed. Thinking of the first time she met Shen Qinghe, she felt a little sad.
"What's wrong?" Hu Jiu asked with concern.
"Do you think we'll be so sad when we have a daughter and she gets married?"
Hu Jiu was still absorbed in the first half of the sentence, and when he heard the second half, he said indifferently, "Why should we marry? If we had daughters, we could just marry the king directly, or even marry several of them."
An Ge... I almost forgot, the demon race has a pretty open-minded culture.
The thought of her future daughter surrounded by a bunch of men vying for her affections made An Ge shudder. Forget it, one, regardless of gender, is best.
Whether considering how long they've known each other or their usual relationship, Shen Qinghe is considered a veteran at the inn. An Ge has no intention of making her wedding a mere formality.
When Bai Yurou heard that An Ge wanted to prepare a gift for Shen Qinghe, she volunteered to help.
"Why don't you go back to the capital? Your mother is extremely worried about your marriage."
"Don't even mention it. If it weren't for my cousin's affair, my mother would have gone back to the Northwest long ago, and she wouldn't have to keep an eye on those talented men in the capital every day. Rather than living with those people, she would rather go back to the Northwest and find a soldier."
An Ge looked at Bai Yurou, who spoke frankly and whose eyes seemed to show no lingering affection for Yun Mo.
"It seems you've truly let go."
Bai Yurou was silent for a while, "Actually, it's impossible to say that I don't like him at all, but I know that just liking him is useless. It's not just about our identities, but also about many other things where we have different opinions. It's better to break up sooner because of this."
An Ge really liked Bai Yurou's personality. Even women who received an enlightened education in their previous life couldn't be like her.
"I'm really curious about what your future partner will be like?"
"Maybe you don't even have a partner?" Bai Yurou joked.
Later, when An Ge saw Bai Yu Rou's partner, she was unusually surprised for a moment.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was time for the Crown Prince's wedding.
Since the fall of Prince Kang's power, the capital hadn't been this lively in a long time. Although the crown prince's ascension to the throne was blessed by the gods, the capital still carried a sense of gloom after the power grab.
Therefore, during the period of the Crown Prince's wedding, a large number of people from the surrounding area flocked into the city to share in the joy.
Shen Qinghe wore a bright red wedding dress and had exquisite makeup on her face, making her look dignified and noble.
"He'er, you'll have to rely on yourself from now on." Old Mrs. Shen held Shen Qinghe's hand, tears welling up in her eyes.
While Shen's parents were happy, their faces also showed worry.
Their family was really poor; the dowry alone had almost emptied the entire Shen family's coffers.
They weren't worried about the Shen family being financially ruined; they simply felt guilty towards their daughter. If it weren't for the Emperor and Crown Prince's thoughtfulness in secretly providing some financial assistance, their daughter would have been humiliated today.
Even so, the Crown Princess's gift was only barely presentable.
With tears in her eyes, Shen Qinghe said to her mother-in-law, "My daughter will definitely live a good life from now on and will never let herself suffer."
When the others heard this, they assumed that Shen Qinghe was just trying to comfort them.
Marrying into the royal family, how could one not feel wronged? Especially since their family backgrounds were far removed from those of the two concubines.
Thinking of An Ge's words, Shen Qingshuang felt less pessimistic.
As long as An Ge can send someone over, even if their family is poor, their sister will not be easily looked down upon.
You should know that although the store manager is said to be a good person, he has never been known to give preferential treatment to anyone except a very few people.
Back then, Shi Xinyi was able to establish herself in the capital simply by using the title of store manager, which shows how influential An Ge was among the people.
Especially after the teleportation array was activated, An Ge became a god in the hearts of the people.
Just then, a servant came running up from outside, panting and excited, "Master, there are people from the inn outside, saying they're here to escort the young lady to her wedding."
"What kind of people are from the inn?" Father Shen asked, somewhat puzzled.
Shen Qingshuang was the first to react, "Is it the Immortal Fate Inn?"
The servant was so excited that he could barely speak and could only nod repeatedly.
Shen Qingshuang's words immediately caused an uproar in the Shen family. Some relatives who did not live in the capital were astonished and gaped when they heard what Shen Qingshuang said.
Goodness gracious, the Shen family is quite something. Not only has their son become an official, but they also know the people at the Immortal Inn.
Everyone knows that the Fairy Inn is a place of immortals, where people can experience the life of immortals, but gaining the favor of immortals is not easy.
This isn't just a case of good fortune emanating from Shen Laosi's ancestral graves; it's more like their ancestral graves are on fire, the kind of fire that even the fire brigade couldn't put out.
"Please come quickly!" Father Shen's voice changed with excitement.
An Ge, basking in the admiring or awe-inspiring gazes of the crowd, walked straight toward the Shen family, followed by Hu Jiu and others, making quite a show of herself.
Now she has to save face for Shen Qinghe, so she has to keep a respectable air about her.
"Sister An!" As soon as Shen Qinghe saw An Ge, she ran over and hugged her tightly, her face wet with tears of excitement.
Despite her assurances to her family that she would have a good future, she was actually incredibly worried inside.
However, in order not to worry her family, she had to force herself to stay calm.
Seeing An Ge felt like finding a reliance, and he could no longer control himself, releasing the unease in his heart.
An Ge was both amused and exasperated, realizing that she was indeed becoming more and more like a "loving mother."
She patted Shen Qinghe's back repeatedly to comfort her, "Don't cry, okay? I'm here now."
"Hmm! I didn't expect Sister An to come in person." She thought the shop manager would bring her a wedding gift, and she couldn't believe she would meet Sister An in person.
“My little sister is getting married, how can I, as the older sister, not come?” An Ge said casually, unaware that her words would cause a huge uproar.
Everyone was already surprised when they saw Shen Qinghe hug An Ge, and when they saw An Ge's actions, they were even more astonished and their mouths dropped open.
Upon hearing her words again, the timid girl was so frightened that she sat down on the ground.
Good heavens, what did they hear?
The immortal actually called Shen Qinghe "little sister"!
