Chapter 667: Jiaji
Shen Qingqian pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister-in-law, you are too kind."
After changing clothes, the two went out together.
This time when Shen Qingqian came out, she looked up and saw Old Madam Zheng looking at her with a kind smile.
Shen Qingqian came to the center of the main hall and knelt on the mat that had been prepared long ago.
Madam Zheng stood up from her seat and walked over to her. She took a hairpin from the tray Zheng Ruoxi was holding and gently inserted it into Shen Qingqian's head. She said, "Sixth Miss is smart and studious, and has extraordinary talent. She will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Shen Qingqian was a little surprised that Madam Zheng would say this.
You have to know that this is a patriarchal society, and boys are extremely valued over girls. Almost no one says this at a girl's coming-of-age ceremony.
"Thank you, Madam." No matter what, Shen Qingqian was grateful to Madam Zheng for coming to help her get the certificate.
Shen Qingqian stood up, turned around and nodded to the people who came to watch the ceremony, then went back to the house and changed into a long, curved-hem gown.
When she came out again, Mrs. Zheng pinned another hairpin in her hair.
Shen Qingqian turned around to face everyone, and this time she actually saw Sheng Ze behind the crowd. She unconsciously curled the corners of her lips.
In Shengze's eyes, this smile is more beautiful than blooming flowers.
The melon-shaped green dyes the mountain light tender, and the golden peach is newly powdered.
This line of poetry suddenly popped up in his mind, and his ears unconsciously turned red for a moment.
After just a quick glance, Shen Qingqian went back to the house to change clothes.
This time, as soon as she entered the room, she saw something on the table under the windowsill.
Liang followed her and urged, "Hurry up, the dress is slow to put on, we can't delay."
Shen Qingqian took a few steps forward, picked up the thing on the table, and knew who it was at a glance.
"Mom, please use this jade pendant." Shen Qingqian handed the jade pendant in her hand to Liang.
The Shen family seems to be quite wealthy now, but that is just an appearance. In fact, there is not much liquid capital, and only Shen Qingqian himself has a little cash.
When a girl reaches the age of three, she is required to wear a jade pendant. Liang borrowed a jade pendant from Xiao. It was of average quality and was fine for formal occasions, but it would not withstand close scrutiny.
As for the piece that Shengze sent, even if Shen Qingqian didn't know the value of it, she could tell it was no ordinary item the moment she touched it.
I don't know how he knew that Liang didn't have the jade pendant, and he actually sent it to her at this time.
Of course, Shen Qingqian didn't know at this time that Sheng Ze had just learned from Shen Jun that Xiao wanted to give the jade pendant to Shen Qingqian, but was rejected by Liang.
How could his little girl use someone else's jade pendant at her coming-of-age ceremony?
"Where did it come from?" Liang asked in surprise.
She must return Xiao's jade pendant, but the one Shen Qingqian gave her now is not something that an ordinary family can have.
Shen Qingqian thought for a moment and said, "It was given to me by a friend. I'll tell you more about it later."
She couldn't say now that it was a gift from Shengze, otherwise Liang would definitely urge her to get married again.
"Friend" Liang was stunned for a moment, then she felt relieved. "Okay, with this jade pendant, you won't have any regrets about your coming-of-age ceremony."
In fact, she has been feeling a little guilty these days because she doesn't even have a decent jade pendant.
A girl only has one coming-of-age ceremony, and if she misses out on it, it will be something that can never be made up for.
"Okay, go out." Liang looked at Shen Qingqian in her gorgeous attire, her heart filled with pride that was about to overflow.
This is her daughter, who has grown from a tiny baby into the dignified, beautiful and graceful woman she is today!
Shen Qingqian came out of the house and looked up at the crowd watching the ceremony. The amazement in everyone's eyes made the slight nervousness in her heart completely disappear.
"She has a figure like a cloud and a waist like a willow, and she occupies the first place in the east wind." Sheng Ze whispered softly, his eyes fixed on Shen Qingqian.
Shen Xiao, who was standing next to him, leaned forward and asked, "Cheng San, what did you say?"
