Qiu Yinong looked at Qiu Yuwan, who smiled and nodded, "Since Sister Yunshu has spoken, Yi'er, just call her whatever you see."
"Okay, Aunt Yunshu."
"Oh, oh, this girl is so pretty. I'm so happy. How old is Yier this year?" Li Yunshu asked enthusiastically.
Qiu Yuwan replied for her, "She's fourteen this year, and in two years she'll be getting married."
"It's a pity that my son is still young, otherwise I really want Yi'er to be my family's bride." Li Yunshu said without any joking.
Qiu Yinong's cheeks flushed slightly, and Qiu Yuwan quickly said, "Sister Yunshu, please don't scare my Yi'er."
"Yier is still young, don't worry. My Yier was taken away by mistake when she was born. She just returned to the Qiu family not long ago. My eldest brother and his wife will not betroth Yier to someone else so quickly."
Li Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "I think I did hear Mo Niang mention it. This is definitely a blessing for your Qiu family."
"Look, if it weren't for Yi'er's good craftsmanship, she wouldn't have gone to Mo Niang to sell her embroidery, and there wouldn't have been any subsequent events. This shows that your family's Yi'er is blessed with a long-lasting blessing."
Qiu Yuwan nodded seriously, "That's right."
"Yier, what's the matter with you coming to see Aunt Yunshu?" Li Yunshu said, but quickly got to the point.
Qiu Yinong looked at Qing Yuan, who nodded and handed her a piece of paper.
After Li Yunshu unfolded it, he was stunned.
"What is this?" Li Yunshu looked at Qiu Yinong.
Qiu Yinong smiled and nodded: "Aunt Yunshu is right. This is the longevity painting I designed for ***."
"Yinong has something I'd like to trouble Aunt Yunshu with. Could you please convey a few words to her for me?"
"You say." Li Yunshu nodded.
Qiu Yinong didn't beat around the bush: "If possible, I want to see the Queen Mother's face with my own eyes. I want to embroider her image on the other side of this longevity painting."
"Of course, if that doesn't work, just pretend I never made this suggestion."
Li Yunshu opened her eyes wide, thinking she had misheard: "Are you still going to do double-sided embroidery?"
"Yes." Qiu Yinong nodded confidently, and Li Yunshu was silent for a moment.
Then he said, "How about this, you all come with me to ***'s mansion, and you talk to *** in person?"
Qiu Yinong looked at Qiu Yuwan, who thought for a moment and nodded, "Is it just that *** will see us?"
"Yes, after all, this birthday gift was made by *** herself. Now that the person is here, *** will naturally meet him."
Qiu Yuwan thought it made sense, so she smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll have to trouble Sister Yunshu to take us to the *** Mansion."
Li Yunshu asked the maid to arrange a carriage. Qiu Yuwan quickly said, "If Sister Yunshu doesn't mind, you can take our carriage. It's ready."
"Alright, let's go then."
"Sister Yunshu, please."
Li Yunshu said something to the housekeeper, and followed a maid to the gate.
When the servant of the Qiu family saw Qiu Yuwan and her niece coming out, he quickly got off the car and waited with a step stool.
Qiu Yuwan was the last to get on the carriage and told the servant, "Go to the *** Mansion."
"Yes." After everyone was seated, the servant got on the carriage and headed towards the *** Mansion.
The Shen family was not far from the *** Mansion, and they arrived there in a short while.
After getting off the car, the Shen family maid went to the gate of the mansion to talk.
The servant glanced at Li Yunshu and the others, nodded to the maid, and went into the mansion.
*** happened to be receiving a distinguished guest. The servant told the reason to the maid guarding outside the door. The maid nodded and walked into the hall.
"What's wrong?" *** looked at the maid and asked.
The maid quickly replied, "My Lord, it's Madam Shen from the Minister of Personnel who wants to see you."
"Please invite the person in quickly." *** smiled and ordered as soon as he heard it.
The maid nodded and followed the boy to the gate.
When Li Yunshu saw the maid following the servant, he smiled at Qiu Yuwan and her niece.
"Madam Shen, Miss Qiu San, good afternoon. The queen invites you. Please follow me." The maid didn't know Qiu Yinong, so she just nodded at her.
Li Yunshu greeted the person with a smile. This was the second-class maidservant beside the ***, named Luzhu.
"Thank you, Miss Luzhu."
"You're welcome, Madam Shen." Lu Zhu smiled back and led the way.
Li Yunshu and the others followed Lu Zhu silently, while Qiu Yinong looked at the scenery inside the mansion.
As expected of the residence of royal ladies, it exudes luxury and nobility everywhere.
Lu Zhu turned around and saw Qiu Yinong looking at her. She just looked at Qiu Yinong a few more times, but did not show any contempt.
"We're here, Madam Shen, Miss Qiu San, you two can just go in directly."
"Thank you, Miss Luzhu." Li Yunshu thanked with a smile, and then took Qiu Yuwan and her niece into the front hall.
As Qiu Yinong stepped in, she saw the *** sitting in the first seat.
Li Yunshu led them in and knelt down to pay homage to the emperor.
"Ms. Shen Li (my daughter, Mrs. Qiu) greets ***, ***, good afternoon."
"Mrs. Shen, Miss Qiu San, there's no need to be polite. Just sit down and talk." *** is pretty and has a nice voice.
Li Yunshu was helped up by the maid and looked at Qiu Yinong anxiously.
"Whose noble lady is this? I've never seen her before. She is so pretty." *** had sharp eyes and spotted Qiu Yinong at once.
He asked Li Yunshu with a smile.
Li Yunshu smiled at Qiu Yinong and introduced her to the teacher, "This is the niece of Mr. Qiu, the Deputy Director of the Imperial Divination Temple. Her maiden name is Yinong."
