“You go and tell the madam,” Old Madam Qin instructed indifferently.

“Let her take care of Xiao Sheng’er’s marriage now and as for the marquis manor, she will not be in charge of it for the time being. And tell her to hand over the token and account book.”

After a pause, Old Madam Qin’s voice sounded a few degrees colder.

“You remind her again, this is the marriage given by the emperor, the emperor’s golden words, Xiao Sheng’er can only marry if she doesn’t want to die.”

Cui momo and the other maids in the room were surprised.

Since the Qin family was vindicated ten years ago and returned to the capital, old madam Qin handed over the authority of the manor to Madam Su and it has been ten years since then.

Before today, she was afraid that no one had ever thought that one day Old Madam Qin would take back the right of running the marquis manor.

Cui momo curtsied to receive the order and hurriedly went to do it.

However, one incense stick later, Cui momo returned empty-handed and reported.

“Old Madam, Madam is crying and fussing and has fallen ill.”

Old Madam Qin: “....”

She has been too lazy to talk, rubbing her brow she sent all the servants out of the room and stayed alone for a while.

At dusk, when Qin Zhun the marquis of Zhongyi came home and went to greet his mother, Old Madam Qin persuaded him earnestly.

“Ah Zhun, this marriage of Xiao Sheng’er was given by the emperor. Although it is only an oral decree, it is still a holy will. Unless Xiao Sheng’er dies, this marriage cannot be canceled.”

The next day, Qin Zhun personally sent the token and account books to Old Madam Qin, who then decided to give Qin Sheng’s Geng Tie to the matchmaker of the Cheng family.

After Qin Sheng learned the news, she cried, throw a tantrum, and made a scene in her courtyard. But Qin Zhun was not Madam Su, he didn’t soften his heart at all. He just lets the servants in the room look after Qin Sheng with a clear attitude that if something happens to Qin Sheng, they will die together with her.

The news inevitably reached Qin Jiu’s ears, and only smiled when she heard it.

These days, she has been busy struggling with the needles and threads, trying to sew a forehead belt under the guidance of Du Ruo.

This forehead belt was sewn for Duan Wang Fei. After the marriage was decided, she must go to the Duan manor to pay a visit to Duan Wang Fei. Her needlework was not good, and she couldn’t embroider, so she could only do a simple forehead belt.

Du Ruo had many ideas, she taught Qin Jiu to sew some pearls on the forehead belt and used the needle technique of cross stitch and applique stitches. This made Qin Jiu very busy every day that she wanted to grow six arms like Nezha, thus the chaos in the manor didn’t bother her at all.

On the tenth day of the lunar month, Su Wang Fei on behalf of the Duan Wangfu sent the geng tie to Huangjue Temple to ask Master Yuan Wu to read a good fortune for the two family’s union in marriage.

Su Wang Fei sent the result of the marriage to the Qin family. Later, the representative of the Duan Wangfu from the Zongren Palace performed the Naji ceremony and made a letter of appointment.

Henceforth, the marriage between the two families has been officially settled.

In the afternoon of the same day, Duan Wang Fei officially sent a letter to the Qin family, inviting Qin Jiu to come over to the manor.

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, Qin Jiu arrived at the appointment date on time and went to see Duan Wang Fei in the manor.

Qin Jiu was specially dressed today. She was wearing a scarlet butterfly with a flower-cut silk robe, her inner clothes were cream-colored with a small vertical collar that has small embroidered green calyx flowers. The bottom was matched with a long scarlet skirt, while her fine black hair was tied into a double loose bun decorated with a golden dragon pin that has a pair of red ruby eyes flowers.

Her facial features were good. Her eyebrows were delicately painted with black dye while her lips were red making a beautiful contrast with her white smooth jade skin making her small face look lovely and beautiful. And lastly, her bright eyes shine even more brightly as she looked around her surroundings.

As Duan Wang Fei looked at Qin Jiu up and down, her eyes finally fell on the sheep-fat white jade ring on Qin Jiu’s waist, and was stunned for a moment.
