Jiang Wan and Jiang Shu arrived at Jun Yutang one after the other.
Today, the Qin family wore a sleeveless jacket covered in gold, with a bun made from peony, with four bright jewellery knots in the middle of it. On the right side, they wore a large flower reflecting a ruby, looking extremely gorgeous. She frowned when she saw Jiang Shu, dressed in a silvery-red camouflage flower with gold filigree threads, a ponytail, gold steps, a beeswax pearl flower, a pair of pure gold shardwood pendant, as beautiful as a flower, and a goose-yellow jasmine flower. Jiang Wan, who wore only a set of red silver pearl heads and was as clean as a root grass, frowned.
Jiang Wan's heart skipped a beat. She was worried that the Qin family wouldn't be satisfied with her disguise, so she deliberately dragged out the time with Jiang Shu to prevent her from changing.
Madam Qin instructed the serving maid, Peony, in a low voice, ”Go and find my pure gold hairstyle and give it to Fourth Miss. We are going to the Crown Prince's Palace as guests, we cannot be so shabby as to lose our face.”
Peony replied and left, but Jiang Wan's heart was at ease.
Because the skin color does not match the yellow. Even the gold she wore made her look old.
Thus, when Jiang Wan put on the golden headband of the Qin family, their eyebrows wrinkled even more. Even a ”Chuan” character appeared between their eyebrows, but for a moment, she couldn't tell what was wrong with it.
However, time didn't wait for anyone. She didn't have much time to waste on this, so she called out to Jiang Wan and Jiang Zhuzhe to board the seven-colored glazed flowery green carriage that was parked outside the mansion.
Because the destination of the trip was the crown prince's residence, Jiang Shu appeared to be even more lively than usual, chattering non-stop. However, along the way, the Qin family appeared to be very preoccupied with their own matters.
Jiang Wan silently sized up the Qin family for a few moments, and then also somewhat boringly lifted the curtain on the side she was on and looked out of the window.
The streets had already become bustling with activity. People were coming and going, and the streets were filled with exclamations. Some merchants had hung red lanterns and pasted new couplets on their doors. The New Year atmosphere was gradually filling up.
But what did the bustle of the street have to do with her? In her previous life, she had lived in the capital for ten years, but she had never stepped foot in this bustling place before.
Suddenly, she heard Jiang Shu, who was sitting on the other side of the carriage, shout out, ”Ai, ai, ai, just now, it was the Treasure Chest. They all said that the Fortune Pancake made by the Treasure Chest was the best in the world … Why don't we buy some for Big Sis to have a taste! ”
To Jiang Wan's surprise, the Qin family, who always granted Jiang Shu every request, stared at Jiang Shu, ”Your elder sister is the crown prince's consort, what good thing has she not eaten before? Big Sis Shu, can't you be as quiet as Big Sis Wan'er? ”
Growing up to this extent, Jiang Shu, who had suffered her first loss, curled her lips in displeasure as tears began to well up in her eyes.
Jiang Wan felt that it was funny, but she didn't want Jiang Shu to think that she was laughing, so she could only lower her eyes and pretend that she didn't notice.
They sat in the carriage for about half an hour, when suddenly they saw two large stone lions squatting in the north side of the street. Behind the stone lions were three large red painted doors with golden yellow brass nails affixed to them, and above the doors hung a signboard with the words' Crown Prince's Palace 'written on it. However, the three red lacquered doors were not open, only the two sides of the street had people entering.
