Her words made Jiamei's face red with embarrassment, and she stepped forward to greet and pay respects to her future parents-in-law.
Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi gave her a generous red envelope, inside which Jiamei could feel banknotes. She didn't check the amount and handed it to her maid for safekeeping.
After exchanging a few words, Qiaomai asked Chuan'er to accompany Jiamei, while Ling'er was also invited to join.
Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi went to the kitchen to prepare specialty dishes.
During their previous visit, it was a brief and cursory glance.
This time, Ling'er held Jiamei's hand.
“Sister-in-law, let me take you to the amusement park.”
“Isn't that for children?”
“Adults can play too. In my family, there are no children. When you enter the family, make sure to have a few little ones. As their aunt, I'll play with them daily.”
Jiamei shyly tapped her with her hand. “Girl!”
She sneakily glanced at Chuan'er, and their eyes met, causing his face to turn even redder.
Inside the amusement park, Ling'er led Jiamei to slide down slides, ride carousels, and play on seesaws.
“Sister-in-law, don't worry. The place is cleaned daily. Your clothes won't get dirty.”
“Your house is spotless. I feel reassured.”
“My mother is particular. Every corner must be neat and tidy. When you marry in, you'll gradually understand her.”
Seeing his sister and fiancee getting along well, Chuan'er just smiled and watched.
He carried a small basket with various fruits on his arm. When they got tired of playing, he handed them a piece.
“Wow, these oranges are like the ones Auntie conjured last night. They're so good.”
“When you visit our house often, I'll give you all kinds of fruits,” Chuan'er said softly to Jiamei.
“I'll come when you're not busy.”
“Come over whenever you're free. My brother won't be around, but I'll be here.
You can find me in the embroidery shop.”
“Okay, I'll come when I'm free.”
“Let's go. I'll show you something rare. Hehe, ordinary people can't go there.
Only our family can. Sister-in-law, you're now part of our family. I asked Mother, and she agreed to take you there.” “What place is that?”
“Come on. You definitely haven't seen it.”
Ling'er pulled her along, and Chuan'er followed closely. After opening a small courtyard gate, Princess Jiamei was stunned.
Oh my, is this the snow scene described in books?
It's incredibly beautiful. Next to the courtyard gate was an exquisite wooden house with a transparent-colored glazed window on one side, offering a view of the interior.
There was a table in front of the window surrounded by various flowers and plants, thriving and presumably warm.
“Sister-in-law, when we first came here, we had the same expression. Haha.”
“Is this real snow?”
“Of course. Let us teach you how to ski.”
“No, I prefer quiet over action. You two can ski, and I'll watch.”
“Alright, let's broaden your horizons. Brother, let's go. Let's give sister-in-law a few rounds to watch!”
Chuan'er took out the skis and handed them to his sister, then looked at Jiamei.
Are you cold.
“A bit.”
“How about going inside?”
“I'll watch you guys ski outside, and later we can go inside together.”
“Sure!”
Watching her fiancé and sister-in-law skillfully climb onto the skis, holding two sticks, slowly sliding up the slope, and then sliding down at lightning speed, performing several tricks in between, Jiamei couldn't help but envy.
She squatted down, picked up a handful of snow, and looked at it closely.
It really seemed like snow, cold and icy. Having grown up in the capital, she had never been to the north. Now, she was finally fulfilling her wish.
After Chuan'er and Ling'er skied a few rounds, they took off their skis and returned to Jiamei.
“Let's go. It's warm inside.”
Entering the house, Jiamei exclaimed, “Wow, it's so warm in here.”
“Of course. Want something to drink? We have fruit juice.” “No, my stomach isn't good. I can't drink cold beverages.”
“I'll get hot fruit juice!”
Chuan'er walked away, took three bottles of fruit juice, placed them on a tray, and brought them over.
“Jiamei, what flavor do you like?”
“I'm not picky.”
“Then you can have this one. It's mango juice. Little sister, you can have grape juice, and I'll take peach juice.”
The three sat by the window, admiring the snowy scenery outside. Jiamei held the colored glaze bottle, feeling its warmth. She took another sip of fruit juice. The taste was delicious, warming her stomach and making her feel comfortable.
“Ling'er, what's that round thing?”
“A heater. My mother brought it from overseas.”
“Do you always use colored glaze bottles for fruit juice?”
“Is this colored glaze? My mother said it's glass. Putting fruit juice in it and sealing it can preserve it for a year.”
“Are these also from overseas?”
“It seems so. We didn't ask, but most rare items my mother brought are from overseas.” “Your mother is talented.”
“Of course.
Seeing that it was almost time, Chuan'er took the two girls back, locking the courtyard gate behind them.
Returning to the main hall, the connected dining room had already set the table.
“Where's father and mother?”
“Master and Mistress are in the kitchen,” a servant replied.
As soon as the words fell, Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi returned. “Chuan'er, did you take Jiamei around?”
“Yes, we went to the ski area.”
“Jiamei, you're not an outsider. Sooner or later, you will know about this. We won't hide it from you, but please keep it a secret.”
“Can't I tell Father and Mother?”
“I understand, Aunt. I won't say a word if you don't want me to.”
“You're a good child. Are you all hungry? Let's eat.”
Everyone sat down. Jiamei, looking at the delicious dishes on the table, couldn't help but swallow.
During her last visit with the emperor, she couldn't forget the taste of the food. Though not a glutton, the delicacies of the Qiao family were irresistible.
This time, the dishes looked even more exquisite than the previous one. Just by smelling the aroma, she felt like eating.
Qiao Mai picked up her chopsticks, and everyone followed suit.
“Chuan'er, Ling'er, take care of Jiamei. Jiamei, don't be polite. Make sure to eat well. ”
“Yes, Aunt.”
On the other side, Yuan Jiaqi had already started peeling shrimp for his wife. “Wife, have some.
“Okay, there are guests.”
“For me, you are the most important.”
Jiamei occasionally stole glances. She envied her future in-laws. They were affectionate; no wonder her father-in-law had never taken a concubine.
He only needed a woman with her mother-in-law's abilities.
It was said that the Qiao family had established rules, allowing their men to have only one wife throughout their lives. If that were true, Jiamei wouldn't have to worry about Yuan Haichuan taking concubines.
Once he took concubines, his mother wouldn't tolerate it.
After the meal, Ling'er took her to rest in the courtyard. Nanny Jin also liked Princess Jiamei very much.
When she was in the palace, she knew Jiamei had been well-educated by Consort Rui. It seemed to be true.
The two sat on the warm brick bed, eating fruits.
“Ling'er, there's no fire pit in the south. Don't you sleep in a bed at home?”
“My mother grew up in the north and got used to the brick bed. We all like it.
It's warm and bright.” “Don't you get insects?” “No, my mother used many methods to make the house less humid and used herbs to keep the house free of mosquitoes. You don't need to worry about these things. If you don't want to return to the palace, send them back and tell Consort Rui.'
“No, my mother would be unhappy if I stayed overnight at your house. I have to return. ”
“Then let's go after dinner?”
“No, the palace gates close after dark.”
“Okay. Wait here..”
