Jing Wan felt there might be other reasons inside, but since this treasure has fallen into her hands, then naturally need to properly tend to. That pot of Yaotai Jade Phoenix of hers, when she’d originally brought it to the capital, just had a few branches, but now, it has grown into a large bush, the flowers blooming, appearing exceptionally beautiful. Looking at these plants and flowers, one’s mood always can’t help but become delighted.
The weather was also gradually growing cold. Every family has all long started preparing winter clothes, and the Luo family naturally wasn’t an exception either.
When preparing the autumn clothes last time, because Jing Wan and them weren’t in the capital, according to Wang-shi’s idea, just prepare two more sets of winter clothes.
However, Jing Wan refused. In reality, her little treasury was very ample, and the clothes she wore on normal days were all made by the people by her side, having however many she wanted. As such, having more was just wasteful. If she had a say, might as well not want a single one, but often times, it’s still better not to reject. Being too independent can easily draw in hate.
And Sun Yi Jia directly didn’t ask for a single one. Her situation was special. Right now, her stomach was getting bigger, and moreover, she herself didn’t lack this bit of things either, and can just make new clothes every few days. Right now, the main household was taking measurements, even if enlarging a little, when time comes, it still may not necessarily be fitting. She and Jing Wan’s situation were similar, really don’t need to waste the effort.
All the young misses were in high spirits picking out materials at Luo Old Madam’s place. Jing Wan as the oldest among the unmarried young misses, randomly picked two bolts before letting the younger sisters choose. The colors were many and varied, and in the end, there will always be ones that were to one’s liking. Even if two young misses settle on the same color, it was just cutting more from the same color. These remaining few young misses of the Luo family actually weren’t especially competitive, so won’t go as far as to be at odds over a piece of fabric.
Jing Wan also received another letter from Yun Niang, taking a trip to the Rouge Pavilion, and afterwards, bringing back a large sum of money. Jing Wan once thought that she was already a wealthy person, but now, heheh….
She’s truly received too many good things and didn’t want to assess its value.
Packing back another big pile of rouge and powder from the Rouge Pavilion, it was distributed to the various branches again. Have to say, ever since Jing Wan entered the capital, the madams and young misses of the Luo family all saved a lot of rouge and powder money, and the things they used were even the best.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day before Zhou Ying Shuang’s wedding. Yuan Qiao Qiao invited Jing Wan to come add to Zhou Ying Shuang’s dowry together. And Sun Yi Jia’s share, she let Jing Wan take it together with hers.
Before even stepping out of the family gates, Yu Yao Wenzhu came to visit again. Speaking of which, ever since the first time coming to the Luo Manor, Yu Yao Wenzhu just ran here every few days. Today, she was especially bold and confidence, wanting to add dowry for Miss Zhou in place of her princess mother.
Jing Wan knew, this was seeing on her behalf. Have to say, the Grand Elder Princess, this adoptive mother, really was well-qualified.
Because family and friends for the most part all came this day to add to the dowry, when Jing Wan and them arrived, there were already quite a few people present.
When they entered the room, everyone all hurriedly got up to greet. Mainly, it was still because of Yu Yao. As a wenzhu, she ought to accept their greeting.
Yu Yao on normal days perhaps was a little lively, but when needing to be composed, that is also a modeled exampled, even having a bit of the Grand Elder Princess’s shadow. And for a short period of time, it still can very much scare others.
Towards Yu Yao’s arrival, especially after stating her purpose in coming, never mind the friends and family of the Zhou family, even the Zhou family members themselves were all very surprised, directly alarming the Zhou family’s old madam. This was precisely the honor brought about by one’s status.
The things the Grand Elder Princess sent naturally won’t be unpresentable, and were just opened on the spot, letting the room full of madams and misses all envy endlessly. Actually, there were quite a few people that were very curious towards the things Jing Wan brought, but Zhou Ying Shuang didn’t open them. She knew Jing Wan was never a stingy person, and compared to the Grand Elder Princess’s things, afraid were not inferior in any aspect. Letting others see, wouldn’t that be slapping the Grand Elder Princess’s face? At that time, it’ll really be awkward.
Naturally there were also smart people that thought of this and didn’t heckle along with, even standing on Zhou Ying Shuang’s side, saying a few words. That girl that spoke temporarily didn’t come to realization, so naturally was unhappy. Zhou Ying Shuang’s mother and her grandmother both successively dulled their expression.
Seeing the atmosphere becoming strange, those with a clever mouth helped to change the subject.

Jing Wan didn’t say anything, because what she prepared, setting aside the worth, the quantity was more, and also even more delicate.
Because there were quite a few people coming and going, Jing Wan and them didn’t stay for long, stating that they’ll come again tomorrow morning.
By the time everyone more or less all left, Madam Zhou walked into her daughter’s room, seeing Zhou Ying Shuang touching a set of head ornaments lost in thought. A flash of surprised streaked across Madam Zhou’s eyes. What she prepared for her daughter to weigh down the trunk all weren’t as good as this thing. Walking forward, “Luo third miss gave it?”
Zhou Ying Shuang lifted her head, looking to her mother nodding.
Madam Zhou rubbed her head, “Just nicely store it away. Mother right now also don’t need to worry about you suffering a loss in the future. Having such a good friend backing you is much stronger than our entire Zhou family. This is also my child’s good fortune.”
Zhou Ying Shuang nodded her head. She also thought this herself. At the start, becoming friends with Jing Wan was also just because their personalities were relatively well-matched, in addition to Yuan Qiao Qiao’s relation, they thus would become even closer. Who knew that now, that many people would envy her.
Zhou Ying Shuang’s heart filled with honey.
Jing Wan, just as she’d said, came over early in the morning. However, the good fortune madam[1] was already removing the facial hair and trimming the hairline for Zhou Ying Shuang, having the hair on the face all twisted out. Sss—–looks painful just looking at it. Jing Wan touched her own face. Her face practically didn’t have any hair, so when time comes, probably don’t need to suffer. It’s best to just let that good fortune madam just go through the motions.
(T/N: Not facial hair like eyebrows and eyelashes, but the ones in the pores on your face. This is an ancient beauty technique and is done using a thread to wring out the hair, like in the picture below.)
The face was trimmed and the hair attentively combed. Just, when it came time to apply the makeup, Zhou Ying Shuang asked Jing Wan to help her.
Although it didn’t conform with the rules, the good fortune madam didn’t mind, and Jing Wan also happily agreed, carefully applying the makeup for her, having some small blemishes covered up, and according to her face shape, faintly apply a layer of rouge. The face was still that face, but it appeared even more beautiful. Quite a few people clicked their tongues in wonder. It’s no wonder this bride wanted Luo third miss to help her apply the makeup. If switched with them, they would certainly do this too.
“When the groom lifts the veil, don’t know how delighted he’ll be.”
Zhou Ying Shuang blushed, causing her face to have an extra trace of color.
When everything was finished, the majority of the people all went out with only Jing Wan and them staying behind to chat with her.
Everything else aside, just based on the sounds outside, one just knew, this wedding was far incomparable to that one a few days ago.
“The groom has arrived.”
[1] A married madam who has parents above her that are still alive and children below her who are healthy and well. In ancient times a good fortune madam is someone considered to have good fortune, and thus is asked to attend the wedding to rub off that good fortune to the new bride.
