Chapter 502
This was the second New Year that Qin Jiu spent here in the Qi Dynasty, but it was the first time that she had to wear a princesss dress as the county princess to pay a visit to the palace.
Because of Gu Zezhi, Qin Jiu who was a generation younger than him had already struck a lot of gold and silver in advance to use them as New Years money. However, when the second princess and the sixth prince all called her aunt and reached out for money, she almost could not hold back her laughter.
After handing out a couple of New Years money in succession, Qin Jiu became thick-skinned, so when Fang Hanjun came over to call her aunt, she stuffed her with a purse without hesitation, Here, your New Years money.
Fang Hanjun: .
Second Princess Xinan came over and laughed. Cousin, we are just children before we have our hairpin day so we have to collect New Years money.
Qin Jiu smiled, and deliberately put on an elders posture as she said. Even if youve reached your hairpin day, youre still a child!
As soon as she said this, some girls from the royal clan also came up asking for the new years money, making the scene lively and joyful.
On the second day of Lunar New Year, she returned to her maternal home, and on the third day of Lunar New Year, she visited her relatives.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Jiu and Gu Zezhi stayed in the Hot Spring Villa for two days.
After returning from the Hot Spring, Qin Jiu slowly began packing up her luggage and on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year when she returned to the Qin family, she told Old Madam Qin that she was leaving the capital.
Grandmother, in a few days Im going to make a trip back to the Western Frontier with Zezhi to meet Duan Wangye.
Qin Jiu understood Gu Zezhis meaning, so she seamlessly intended to reveal that they were going back to the western frontier to pay respect.
Old Madam Qins first reaction to hearing this was that the journey was far and too arduous.
However, no matter how heartbroken and distressed she could not say anything about it. Her granddaughter was already married and she was now a member of the Duan Wang family, so it was reasonable to go and pay her respect to her father-in-law.
Moreover, since Duan Wangye was ordered by the emperor to guard the western frontier, he would not have been able to come to the capital. As the son and daughter-in-law, they should have made this trip; if Qin Jiu would not go, she would have been criticized instead.
Old Madam Qin calmed herself and asked a series of questions with concern. Have you packed your things? Have you set a time to leave? Does the Emperor know?
Qin Jiu smiled and answered, Well set off again when Zezhis errand is done. Im slowly putting things away.
Old Madam Qin nodded, thinking that this was right and she could not delay her errand, but the truth was that since the western frontier was so far away, there was no fear of being delayed for a day or two.
