Chapter 98: Xue’er Looks Even Better Wearing It

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

However, Gu Qingxue was different. She looked calm and did nit seem nervous at all.

Madam Qiao looked at Gu Qingxue without a smile on her face, she said in a flat tone, “It’s been a long time since we last met. The Eldest Miss seems to be different from before. The empress dowager asked me to bring a congratulatory gift to the Old Madam. I wonder if I could trouble the Eldest Miss to lead the way?”

“Of course, Madam, please.” Gu Qingxue raised her hand and made a gesture of invitation, leading Madam Qiao in the direction of the gazebo.

It was not until Gu Qingxue led Madam Qiao away that everyone finally came back to their senses.

“Eldest Miss Gu is so amazing. Fourth Miss Gu, your Eldest Miss clearly knows how to be reasonable. Aren’t you a little too ignorant about her?” asked Miss Zhang.

“I... I didn’t lie. She was clearly not like this in the past,” Gu Xin’er hurriedly said when she saw that everyone was looking at her with deep meaning in their eyes, “Second sister, quickly speak up for me. Gu Qingxue clearly can’t appear in public.”

“Fourth sister, you’re going overboard with your words. Eldest sister has grown up. As sisters, we should be happy for her,” Gu Lingyue rebuked.

Gu Lingyue’s words immediately made Gu Xin’er look like an outsider. She stood rooted to the ground with a red face, holding a grudge against Gu Qingxue in her heart.

“Yue’er, your big sister is indeed extraordinary. It’s obvious that the rumors can’t be trusted. It’s a pity that she got married early. Otherwise...” Ling Tianqi seemed to have realized something, so he changed the topic. “However, it’s all thanks to your big sister getting married. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to marry such a gentle beauty like you.”

Gu Lingyue listened to Ling Tianqi’s words, but she could clearly feel that the way he looked at her was no longer as passionate as before.

“The crown prince is right. This is all fate.” Gu Lingyue’s face was like a spring breeze as she secretly rubbed the handkerchief hidden in her sleeves.

On this side, Gu Qingxue also led the Qiao family up the steps and entered the pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, the Old Madam saw Gu Qingxue and squeezed out a smile on her dull face. “Xue’er, come to grandmother. Grandmother will give you some candy.”

Gu Qingxue glanced around and found that besides Madam Kou, there was a gentleman in his early twenties beside the Old Madam. His appearance was somewhat similar to Madam Kou’s.

Gu Qingxue thought for a while and recognized the person in front of her. It was her third brother, Gu Chengbin.

Madam Kou also looked at Gu Qingxue and Madam Qiao behind her in surprise.

“Grandmother, I met the Imperial Duke Zhan’s wife by chance and she wanted to come over to celebrate your birthday, so I brought her with me.” Gu Qingxue came forward and naturally sat beside the Old Madam.

“My son and I greet the wife,” Madam Kou came forward and said with an apologetic smile, “I clearly told Yue’er to meet you outside. I don’t know where this wild girl went. She neglected you. It’s my fault.”

“It doesn’t matter. The Eldest Miss has taken good care of me.” As Madam Qiao spoke, she walked up to the Old Madam and squeezed out a rare smile, “Old Madam, the empress dowager asked me to send you a congratulatory gift. I wish you a long and blessed life.”

The Old Madam stretched out her hand and watched Madam Qiao hand over a brocade box to her.

Opening the brocade box, she saw a high-quality jade bracelet inside. With just a glance, one could tell that it was invaluable.

“It’s beautiful. Give it to Xue’er. Xue’er will look better with it.” The Old Madam put the bracelet on Gu Qingxue’s wrist without saying anything.

“Mother! This is the empress dowager’s goodwill to you. It’s a gift from the emperor. You can’t give it to others as you please!” Even Madam Kou could not help but feel nervous when they saw this.
