He was the head of the Scholars in the Wen Yuan Pavilion, the father of the Consort.
With him, it was very easy for Jin Chupei to have a place amongst the civil servants.
Of course, this was still the time for him to use it.
However, if they were to form such a good relationship with each other, it would be beneficial to them in the future.
Sun Jinzi was secretly satisfied in her heart.
Then, she pulled Lan Yihong and left.
”We'll come back tonight.”
If they stayed too long now, others would inevitably suspect that there was something shameful going on between them.
Consort was clever enough to not ask too much, after sending Sun Jinzi and the rest off, she immediately sent people to inform her father, Mr. Wen.
Sun Jinzi then brought her present to the Qin Manor once again.
Qin Wanting was already waiting for her at the second door.
”Aiya, it's such a cold day, why did you come out?”
Sun Jinzi saw that Qin Wanting's pretty face was flushed red from the cold, and immediately greeted her with a smile.
”maidservant pays her respects to The Crown Prince … the imperial concubine.” Qin Wanting, however, was a very courteous person.
Sun Jinzi became more and more unhappy as she glared at him, her mouth puckering up ever so slightly.
”What are you doing?” What kind of relationship do you have with us? How could you learn from those outsiders? ” There was no need for these superfluous courtesies between them.
”Sister Zi Er.”
Qin Wanting saw that Sun Jinzi was truly angry, and immediately changed her form of address, smiling as she held her hand and pulled her into the Warm Pavilion.
”Let's go see your grandmother first.”
Normally, when going to someone else's house to be a guest, one would first have to go to someone else's house to meet their senior, and only after paying respects would they be able to find someone else's juniors to play with.
”Alright, my grandmother is already waiting in the hall.” Qin Wanting was a concubinage, but luckily her direct mother only had a son, and never had a daughter. Furthermore, her own mother died too early, so she was raised by the direct mother.
Moreover, right now she also had a close friend who could increase her status, so she was treated even more seriously in Qin Manor.
Sun Jinzi and Qin Wanting walked towards the inner hall hand in hand.
Indeed, Old Mistress Qin was waiting there.
She was dressed in a crimson red robe and had a jade bead on her forehead. She sat upright and waited there, and when she heard that the Sixth Prince's Consort was here, she immediately stood up to pay her respects.
Sun Jinzi immediately stepped forward and supported her.
”Old Mistress... I can't. Even though I've married into the imperial family, I am still a junior in the end.
The problem was not that Old Mistress was an elder, but that she had been good to Sun Jinzi since she was young and had never discriminated against him, or any other unfavorable aspects.
Therefore, Sun Jinzi was willing to respect her. Unlike when she was in Sun Mansion, where even she was in front of Zhong's and Sun Fuping, Sun Jinzi still carried her status. As long as she wanted to carry the identity of a royal wife, the people around her would have to follow and greet her. She had to complete all the necessary etiquette.
Otherwise, if word of this got out, it would mean that they had no rules and that they had committed the following crimes.
Look, this is the rule of their The Jin Dynasty.
Here, Sun Jinzi had not been to the Qin Manor for a long time purely because there was nothing else she could do.
Therefore, he only sat for a short while and ate his lunch before making an excuse to leave.
Coincidentally, Jin Chupei returned and actually caught up to her.
Sun Jinzi looked at Jin Chupei who was standing at the entrance of Qin Manor, and a huge smile immediately bloomed on his face.
”Sister Zi Er is so lucky.”
Qin Wanting praised Sun Jinzi very naturally, as she envied him.
Sun Jinzi knew that Qin Wanting was only purely envious of her.
In any case, the people around could tell that Jin Chupei was treating her well, even without her saying anything more.
With regards to these things that could even be seen with the eyes of an outsider, Sun Jinzi didn't waste any more time explaining and only responded with a smile.
”You will also find someone who is extremely good to you in the future.”
Qin Wanrou lowered her head and smiled shyly.
”Go back, don't send me off.” Sun Jinzi caressed her face, the weather was cold.
”Mn, I understand. I'm afraid that the next time we meet, it will be the time for the palace feast to be held in the palace.” Qin Wanrou was somewhat unwilling to give up.
She had a lot of friends in the capital, and Sun Jinzi was her best friend.
