Chapter 173 Kissing intermittently
“That’s a relative from my mother-in-law’s family, named Qiu Yueli,” Qin Jiuwei chuckled. “She’s currently staying at our residence.”
Gao Yunzhi glanced at her and said, "It seems your mother-in-law is quite eager to marry her off. She's been meeting people non-stop, one after another."
"We've been eyeing each other for a long time," Qin Jiu said calmly.
She had heard before that Lady Hou had been looking for a husband for Qiu Yueli.
But since he couldn't find one he was satisfied with, he came to the garden party to see it for himself.
The Hou family was far away and could offer little help to the Hou family and Xie Zhongzhi, who were in the capital.
If Qiu Yueli could marry into a prominent family in the capital, it would be a great thing for the Lady of the Marquis.
However, it seems that things are not going smoothly.
Jiang Yunzhu put down her teacup and asked with concern.
"I heard that the second young master of the Marquis's mansion has returned with his wife and children. How are you all getting along?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Jiuwei's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Not great, but it's passable on the surface."
Gao Yunzhi snorted lightly, "If they dare to bully you, just tell me, and I'll stand up for you."
Qin Jiu smiled slightly, "Why would I need you to stand up for me? It's not that serious."
She looked at Gao Yunzhi's protruding belly and said, "Now that you're a mother, you should be more careful."
When the topic of children came up, a gentle smile appeared on Gao Yunzhi's bright face.
She placed her right hand on her stomach and gently stroked it. "Yes, right now, all I want to do is give birth to this child and raise her."
Gao Yunzhi said in a light and cheerful voice, touching her belly, "Baby, can you hear me? Grow up well, okay?"
Qin Jiuwei looked at her smiling happily, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but curve slightly.
The three of them sat idly until noon before Qin Jiuwei took a carriage back to her residence.
Qinglan Courtyard.
"Have you found the fabric I asked you to find?" Qin Jiuwei asked.
Xiao He nodded and soon brought out a piece of exquisite dark blue silk.
Qin Jiuwei looked at the cloth and nodded in satisfaction.
That's exactly the kind of fabric she wanted.
"Miss, are you really going to make a new dress for the young master yourself?" Xiaohe asked.
Making men's clothes is much more difficult than making belts.
Qin Jiuwei nodded slightly.
This was the first time she had ever made clothes for a man.
In her previous life, she always played the role of a dignified, virtuous, and sensible concubine in front of Gao Xian.
She would never do something like making clothes for the emperor to gain favor.
If you send it, you will immediately become a thorn in the side of the empress and concubines.
She just wanted to stay quiet and minimize her presence.
Rather than trying to please Gao Xian, she spent more time trying to please the Empress Dowager.
She knew making clothes was difficult, but she still wanted to do it.
Her husband wants love, what can she do?
We can only go along with him.
Who told her she didn't have a powerful maternal family to rely on...
Qin Jiuwei spent the whole afternoon busy with clothes.
As evening fell, a maid announced, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Qin Jiuwei and Xiaohe immediately packed up the things they needed for making clothes.
She then lifted the curtain and went out, just as she met Xie Yanli's gaze.
Qin Jiuwei smiled perfectly and walked towards him.
"This is for you." Xie Yanli took out an exquisite brocade box and handed it to Qin Jiuwei.
Qin Jiuwei's brows twitched slightly as she took the brocade box and slowly opened it.
In an instant, a burst of brilliant light appeared, and a delicate hairpin lay quietly in the box.
The hairpin is made of pure silver, with delicate silver wires winding around it. The head of the hairpin is set with a large sapphire, and around the sapphire is a circle of exquisite metal lace.
Qin Jiuwei lightly covered her lips, "Wow, so beautiful."
She had a pile of such jewelry on her desk.
Xie Yanli looked at her and said gently, "I made this myself. Do you like it?"
Honey, did you make this by hand?
Qin Jiuwei's expression changed instantly, her eyes filled with shock.
She subconsciously glanced at Xie Yanli's hand and caught a glimpse of some red marks.
Qin Jiuwei immediately took Xie Yanli's hand.
His palms were covered with countless tiny wounds.
Some wounds had scabbed over and were dark in color; others were still slightly red, clearly indicating that they had been injured recently.
Qin Jiuwei was somewhat incredulous.
Xie Yanli, such a busy man, was actually willing to take so much time for her, just for a hairpin...
Seeing her expression, Xie Yanli couldn't help but chuckle.
After seeing the belt Qin Jiuwei made for him that day, he thought that he should also make something for her by hand.
So these past few days, after leaving Wenyuan Pavilion every day, I've gone to Zhenbao Pavilion to learn how to make hairpins.
Fortunately, Qin Jiuwei liked the gift, so it was all worth it.
Qin Jiuwei gently stroked the wound on Xie Yanli's palm with her fingertips, feeling a slight stirring in her heart.
She had heard a saying before.
Those who are poor are willing to spend money on you, and those who are rich are willing to spend time on you.
A person who is willing to give you their most precious thing truly cares about you.
"It's just a minor injury; it'll be fine in a few days," Xie Yanli said gently.
Qin Jiuwei shook her head. "No, you still need to apply some medicine later."
"I'll be there in a moment. I'll put this hairpin on you now," Xie Yanli said, looking into her eyes.
Qin Jiuwei nodded slightly.
Xie Yanli gently inserted the hairpin into Qin Jiuwei's hair bun.
The large sapphire was positioned perfectly to one side of her hair bun, making her already gentle temperament even more outstanding.
Xie Yanli's gaze lingered on her face. "Madam is so beautiful."
His slender fingers gently stroked Qin Jiuwei's cheek.
The movements were as gentle as if they were the most precious treasure in the world.
Then, Xie Yanli leaned down slightly and placed a light kiss on Qin Jiuwei's cheek.
Qin Jiuwei's cheeks flushed instantly, but she did not dodge.
Their breathing became erratic.
Xie Yanli looked at her, his eyes growing even deeper.
Then, his lips slowly moved, tracing Qin Jiuwei's cheek, inch by inch, towards her rosy lips.
With each step closer, the ambiguous atmosphere in the air grew stronger.
Finally, their lips met.
At first, Xie Yanli only kissed him intermittently.
Qin Jiuwei subconsciously closed her eyes, and her hands unconsciously gripped Xie Yanli's clothes.
Seeing that she did not resist, Xie Yanli began to deepen the kiss without any restraint.
He then wrapped his arm around Qin Jiuwei's slender waist, pulling her tightly into his embrace.
Let their bodies fit together more closely.
The kiss gradually became passionate and lingering, and Xie Yanli's large hand on Qin Jiuwei's waist began to wander.
He began to caress her gently, making Qin Jiuwei's body go weak and causing her to tremble softly.
Xie Yanli chuckled softly, his Adam's apple bobbing.
