When Ah Man arrived at Su Jinxiu's palace, Su Jinxiu was sulking because the news of Zhen Junran's disappearance had also reached the palace.
The previous negligence in wedding preparations could still be remedied, but now, the groom has run away. Isn't this a slap in the face
Su Jinxiu was so angry that she didn't even have dinner. She wanted to ask her father to help her, but when she thought about how she was treated coldly by her father before, she hesitated. She wanted to find Concubine Xu, but when she thought about how Concubine Xu promised to talk to her father last time and her father didn't say anything until now, she was really worried.
She wanted to ask her mother for help, but Concubine Zhu had also been disliked by her father recently. She thought about it and realized that there was no one to help her, and she became more and more angry.
It was obviously not like this in the palace before. Whenever something happened, the Queen would take action, and Ah Man would feel extremely distressed if she suffered the slightest injustice. She was clearly working towards a better direction, but she found that everything had become worse.
The only one who can help her now is Ah Man, but she doesn't know how to ask Ah Man.
Ah Man is no longer as close to me as before, but this matter concerns my happiness and is a matter of my life. Ah Man should help, right
Su Jinxiu is trying to build up her mental strength. She is trying to convince herself to ask A'man for help.
Unexpectedly, before she could convince herself, Ah Man brought Jin Xuan to her house. Ah Man's visit made her suddenly relieved. She quickly stood up and greeted him with a smile.
Ah Man stood at the door of her bedroom, looking at her with a faint smile. Seeing her coming, she waved to the maid behind her to bring out the tray.
"Tomorrow, the princess will be getting married. According to folk custom, sisters should give their sister some dowry. This is my dowry gift to my sister."
While Ah Man was speaking, the maid had already brought the dowry to Su Jinxiu. It was a set of jade jewelry with excellent water content. It shone with a lustrous luster under the light. There were lifelike kingfisher feathers between several small jades. At first glance, it was obvious that it was priceless.
Looking at this set of jewelry, Su Jinxiu's heart was already filled with joy. She took it happily and thanked him repeatedly.
Ah Man is willing to give her such a good thing, which means that she still cares about her imperial sister in her heart, Su Jinxiu said to herself in her heart, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"Sister, please come in and sit for a while. We sisters haven't had a good chat for a long time." Su Jinxiu greeted her warmly, but she didn't expect that Ah Man had already turned around and was about to leave.
Naturally, Su Jinxiu was unwilling to let Ah Man leave like that. She held the plate of jewelry in one hand and tried to pull Ah Man with the other. She was a little anxious, and Ah Man was caught off guard and almost fell down.
"What are you doing? Why are you pulling my sister's clothes?" Before Ah Man could speak, Jin Xuan got angry. He had never liked Su Jinxiu, and when he saw that she almost made Ah Man fall, his tone was full of impatience.
"I didn't, I just, I..." Su Jinxiu was accused by a child and was a little at a loss for a moment. She explained anxiously, but before she could finish her words, Ah Man had patted Jinxuan on the shoulder, indicating to him that they were about to leave.
Su Jinxuan glared at Su Jinxiu unhappily and followed Ah Man away. Su Jinxiu could no longer control herself and shouted, "Ah Man, wait a minute."
Ah Man stopped as she was told and turned to look at Su Jinxiu. Her bright face was filled with a blooming smile, so frank that people couldn't bear to look directly at her.
"Ah Man, we are sisters, you have to help me." Ah Man mustered up the courage to speak, but the meaning of her words was all as it should be, that is, they were sisters, so Ah Man should help her.
"We are sisters?"
"We are sisters, of course. Otherwise, why would you come to give me a dowry gift today? Ah Man, you are the only one who can help me this time."
Su Jinxiu wanted to have a good talk with Ah Man, but seeing Ah Man's nonchalant attitude, she was afraid that Ah Man would turn around and leave, so she made a long talk and got straight to the point.
