Chapter 495

Early in the morning, Qin Zeyu came to pick them up at the Qin Mansion. As soon as they arrived, he called Gu Zezhi's brother-in-law, which was even more affectionate than calling Qin Jiu, sister.

As a county princess, Qin Jiu was assigned a zhulun carriage by the Ministry of the Rites. Therefore, when she returned home to her maternal house, she rode this zhulun carriage. Qin Zening was also there personally welcoming her outside Marquis's mansion.

Before he could say anything, Qin Zeyu had already called out loudly, "Big brother, what are you doing here? I told you that I would pick up my sister and brother-in-law on time."

Qin Zeyu felt that his brother did not have much trust in him.

"If you don't speak, no one will take you for a mute." The corner of Qin Zening's eye twitched, wanting to slap this naughty child in the face.

At this time, Qin Jiu could not help but smile, as she got off the carriage with Gu Zezhi's assistance.

Her bright face was filled with a brilliant smile, a rosy complexion and lively expression.

Seeing that her smile came from the bottom of her heart, it was clear that these past few days had gone well, Qin Zening's heart was finally completely put down, and a smile appeared on his face as well, saying, "Xiao Jiu, quickly go inside, Grandmother and everyone are waiting for you."

Today was the day she returned home to her maternal house or what they called the three dynasties of returning home, and to let the new husband meet the woman's family and recognize them as relatives.

Therefore, today, the clan leader, elders, and other relatives of the Qin clan arrived at Marquis's Mansion early in the morning and were currently gathering in the main hall.

Qin Jiu and Gu Zezhi first went to offer tea to Old Madam Qin, and then Qin Zening personally led Gu Zezhi to recognize the relatives one by one.

After acknowledging the relatives, Qin Zening took his brother-in-law, Gu Zezhi, to the front while Qin Jiu stayed behind to accompany Old Madam Qin and all the female relatives of the Qin family.

The room was shrouded by people wearing fragrant clothing.

After all the men left, the air immediately became more active, and the women chattered non-stop.

A clan elder's wife smiled as she sized Qin Jiu up and praised her. "Our Jiu'er is truly a beautiful bride."

Old Madam Qin always liked hearing these kinds of words, as if she was the one being praised by others. Her smile deepened until a deep wrinkle appeared in the corner of her eyes. "I've watched after her, and she looks good. This child is destined to have good fortune, seeing how she got a decree on her wedding day."

Just like how the request for the crown prince's title requires approval from the emperor, Gu Zezhi has personally applied for the title of county princess for his wife. And thus, Qin Jiu became a dignified county princess as soon as she passed the door. How many women could have such honor!

The other female relatives also echoed in agreement and rushed to look obedient and curry favor.

Originally, the Marquis of Zhongyi was the most noble lineage of the Qin family, and since Qin Jiu married well, they naturally wanted to establish a good relationship with Qin Jiu. After all, it would always be good to have more help in the future!

On the other hand, Qin Jiu pursed her lips and smiled.
