Eunuch Zhong smiled and pushed it back. “This is what our family should do, Princess Ding’an need not be so polite.”

If it was any other family, he could still accept it, but this was Princess Ding’an’s residence. Princess Ding’an was currently favored by countless people, and other people did not even have the means to curry favor with her, so how could he do such a shallow thing?

Seeing that he did not accept it, Jian Qingqing could only give up and send him out respectfully.

Back in the house, the whole family looked at the imperial edict in Mother Jian’s hand with excitement and joy. Xiao Lang jumped up and down and shouted, “Mother, let me see!”

Mother Jian looked at Jian Qingqing helplessly and asked, “Big sister, what’s going on? Why does the Emperor want to confer me a title?”

Jian Qingqing roughly knew what was going on, but it was hard to say. She could only vaguely say, “It’s nothing. I just helped the Emperor a little.”

Mother Jian knew that her daughter had done something big. Otherwise, why would the Emperor appoint her as a concubine for no reason? Hearing this, she said excitedly, “I never thought that I would die one day! It’s all thanks to big sister!”

Jian Qingqing went over and hugged Mother Jian. She wiped the tears on her face and said, “Mother, it’s alright. You can enjoy your life in the future.”

Although Old Man Jian and Jian Dalang were very excited about Mother Jian’s title, they were also a little envious, so they said with a bit of jealousy, “Aiya, Big Sister only loves Mother. We’re all forgotten.”

Jian Qingqing felt a little funny and said, “I haven’t forgotten about

Grandfather and Father either. I’ll ask His Majesty to give you a title next time!”

Old man Jian quickly waved his hand and said, “No need, no need. Silly child. How can you tell this kind of thing to the Emperor? I was just joking. If you don’t do these things, why do we need this title? It’s fine as long as you’re fine!”

Jian Qingqing smiled and did not say anything, but she took this matter to heart. She thought about it for a moment. There seemed to be no example of rewarding the male family of an official in this dynasty. Generally, only the wife and mother could receive the benefits. However, if the official made a great contribution, there was another way of reward, and that was to give a plaque. This way, the whole family could benefit. Some plaques were given to a family, and then the family would be looked up to by people.

Although it was a little difficult for her grandfather and father to give her a

title, giving her a plaque to the family made them happy.

Because Mother Jian had a title, Jian Qingqing planned to invite her relatives and friends to have a meal to celebrate.

They did not know many families in the Capital. However, Mother Jian got to know several wives of officials because she opened a dessert shop. Their relationship was good. However, these large families paid attention to sending invitations in advance. Inviting them rashly was inappropriate, so they could only give up and plan to have a meal with the family.

At this time, Mother Jian reminded her, “Why didn’t you invite Wusheng? Have you not played with him for a long time?”

Jian Qingqing’s face stiffened. Oh no, it seemed to be true. He had been in the Capital for more than half a year. At that time, she said that she would look for him when she was free, but she had not been there even once. She did not know what was going on with him. It was as if she had not heard from him since he came to the Capital.

Thinking of this, Jian Qingqing felt a little guilty. He couldn’t be angry, right?

However, when she thought of how he had not come to her for so long, Jian Qingqing became confident again. She planned to go and see what was going on with him. If he was really angry, she could also apologize..
