Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 1453: Impact

Editor: Henyee Translations

Princess Shuangfu’s finely embroidered palace dress was clearly unsuitable, and she had already changed into the attire of the Qingdi nobility. Accompanied by Qiao Xuan and Auntie Si, she engaged in conversations with the noble ladies of Qingdi.

Even though Qingdi had arranged for servants who could speak the Great Qin language to assist them, communication between the two sides remained somewhat challenging.

Thankfully, the ambiance at the gathering was genuinely festive. Communication difficulties mattered less when the atmosphere was lively and joyous.

Throughout the night, Princess Shuangfu appeared awkward and reserved. Qiao Wei, too, was a bit intimidated by the exuberance of the Qingdi people. However, Qiao Xuan stood out from the rest. Having come from the modern world, she had no qualms about mingling with people of the opposite sex. It was common for men and women to socialize on the beach during the summer in her world. While Qingdi’s enthusiasm might be overwhelming to others, it meant nothing to Qiao Xuan.

With Qiao Xuan’s presence, she provided Princess Shuangfu with comfort and guidance, helping her navigate the situation. In the end, they made it through the night.

Once she returned to her lodgings, Princess Shuangfu struggled to keep her composure, her knees threatening to give way as she almost tumbled to the floor. The shock she had experienced that evening had overturned her understanding of the world and shattered her previous upbringing.

Upon seeing her ashen face, Qiao Xuan didn’t linger. She offered consoling words and took her leave.

The moment Qiao Xuan departed, Princess Shuangfu seemed to lose all her strength, collapsing onto the bed in tears.

She sobbed uncontrollably.

Auntie Si’s heart ached; her own worldview had been shattered, so she empathized with the princess’s distress. She sent everyone else away, instructing Bi Yun and the others to stand guard outside and report any visitors promptly. She settled beside Princess Shuangfu and tenderly stroked her trembling shoulders, offering solace and support.

After a while, Princess Shuangfu’s tears gradually subsided. She sat up, her eyes swollen from crying, and choked out, “Aunt, from now on, we’ll have to endure together in the future!”

Auntie Si’s heart ached, but simultaneously, she felt a sense of gratification.

She was relieved that Princess Shuangfu had not rejected her.

“Princess, you will certainly be all right! We will undoubtedly be fine!”

Princess Shuangfu responded with a soft hum, and tears welled up in her eyes once more.

Auntie Si managed a smile and commented, “I’ve noticed that Qingdi’s capital is so lively and vast. It’s different from what I had imagined! It’s much better!”

Princess Shuangfu gave a slight nod, feeling a touch of relief.

If she could live here peacefully in the future, perhaps it wouldn’t be so unbearable…

The lively festivities in Qingdi continued for several days before coming to an end.

In collaboration with Shao Yunduan, the marriage envoy, the date for Princess Shuangfu’s wedding to Prince Nuo Nuo was set half a month later. Marital customs in Qingdi were relatively straightforward, and ten days provided ample time for preparations.

Shao Yunduan found himself once again occupied with various tasks.

Qiao Xuan also became busy. Shao Yunduan often sought the princess’s input on many matters, and usually, it was Qiao Xuan who relayed the messages. If the princess had any requests, Shao Yunduan would communicate them to Qingdi after Qiao Xuan passed them along.

On the day of Princess Shuangfu’s wedding, the weather was exceptionally fine. The sky was a brilliant, clear blue, with the bright sunlight casting a radiant glow like a colossal sapphire. The earth was lush and green, with wildflowers in full bloom, creating a picturesque scene.
