Wen Wan held the invitation with the plum blossom gold seal and glanced at it, then suddenly laughed and said, "It seems this year will be lively." She instructed Yun Cai next to her, "Go and let the Young Madam know that on the Qixi Festival, we will go to Fahua Temple to offer incense."
Yun Cai responded and quickly left Qingteng Residence, heading to Harmony Pavilion where Ye Ling and Song Yuanbao resided.
Song Yuanbao went to the Hanlin Academy, leaving Ye Ling idle and alone. She sat on the couch doing embroidery; on the rain-over-azure cloth was a pattern of two fish playing in water, symbolizing joy and prosperity.
Yun Cai came in and joked with a smile, "Two fish in water, blessings and many sons, is the Young Madam trying to bless this house with a Young Master Sun?"
Ye Ling blushed upon hearing this; she and Song Yuanbao hadn't even consummated the marriage yet!
