Madam Zhou let Qiu Xiang and the others assist her in changing into a plain and simple dress, and her pearl and jade jewelry was replaced with simple yet exquisite silver ornaments, which made her appear more elegant.
Even though her feelings for Zhou Xuennian had gradually faded over the years, with death extinguishing all lights, now that he had died, recalling that person's face and past memories inevitably brought sadness.
Tears, drop by drop, fell into the warm tea.
He was her elder brother after all!
"Madam, please restrain your grief; you are still carrying a child," Qiu Xiang said, feeling her heart racing, with a sense of unease creeping in.
Madam was already showing signs of premature labor; if she became too sorrowful now, who knew what impact it might have?
Madam Zhou wiped her tears and said, "I merely spoke casually of it back in the day; who would have thought it would actually happen…" She sighed.
