Could it be the fragrance emanating from the lotus jade pendant on her chest? Thinking of this, Shen Qingqiu placed the jade pendant to her nose. Sure enough, a refreshing scent filled her. Shen Qingqiu was truly amazed. The faint fragrance brought a sense of calm and concentration. Not long after, Shen Qingqiu fell into a deep sleep.

The mist dissipated, the dawn light broke, and the morning light began to appear. Half an hour later, Shen Qingqiu vaguely heard the sound of murmurs and conversations outside the house.

"Qiuhe, how is the young lady? Hasn't she woken up yet?" Mrs. Shen asked. After all, her daughter's illness has been getting better and worse for the past 18 years, and it has become more frequent recently. She almost wakes up after sleeping for a few hours.

Qiu He said excitedly, "Yes, madam, the young lady is still resting. However, she didn't get sick all day yesterday, and she seems to be in much better spirits than before."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Are you telling the truth? The young lady didn't get sick yesterday?"

Before Qiu He could answer, Shen Qingqiu opened the door and walked to Madam Shen with a smile: "Mother, I am sorry for making you worry by being unfilial."

Mrs. Shen was naturally happy to see that her daughter looked in good spirits. Qiu He also hurriedly washed and combed Shen Qingqiu's hair. The bright green gauze long skirt was elegant and not vulgar at all, but instead set off her temperament. The few exquisite hair accessories on Liu Yun's bun were simple and generous, making her look like a dignified woman.

At the dining table, Master Shen sat at the head of the table. Seeing Shen Qingqiu arrive, he doted on her and asked her to sit down. Before he could say anything, a young man in a blue robe approached steadily and bowed to Master Shen with a heroic demeanor. "Father, today is the beginning of the month. I want to take my sister to watch the tide. My sister looks good now, so I'm sure it won't be a big deal if we go out for a walk."

Mr. Shen nodded happily: "Well, go ahead, go ahead. Qingqiu rarely goes out due to illness, so it's good to go out for a walk now. Don't let my precious daughter get bored."

When Shen Qingqiu heard they could go tide watching, she clapped her hands in joy and ran happily to the young man: "Sister, oh no, brother, you are so handsome, you will surely charm many girls when you go out! If I stand next to you, I will definitely get the cold shoulder."

Shen Qingchun shook his head and sighed, "No, no, sister, you are both talented and virtuous, even comparable to a fairy from outer space, and you have amazed and envied so many people. Just think about how many people have come to our house to propose marriage in recent years. How could I have thought that it would be me, a foolish brother, who would be looked down upon?"

Mr. Shen was laughing heartily at his two daughters' conversation, but Mrs. Shen was not so happy. "Qingchun, you're a girl, yet you run around wearing boys' clothes all day long. How can that be? You don't know how to sew or needlework, but you've learned some skills. Will it be easy for you to find a husband in the future?"

"No, sister, this woman is as brave as a man, just like a female general!"

Madam Shen nodded Shen Qingqiu's head: "You, are still stirring up trouble!" Turning to Mr. Shen, he said: "It's all because of you who spoiled her. Let's see how you will marry her off in the future!"

Mr. Shen, however, appeared cheerful and carefree. He stroked his beard and waved his hand, "Madam, the children are all grown up. As long as they don't get into trouble, let them do whatever they want! Besides, I think this is a good idea. Qingchun might even be able to help me manage the family business in the future. How could a daughter of the Shen family worry about getting married? No rush, no rush. Let's take our time and choose the right one!"

"Mom, please don't worry about me. If my sister and I go out dressed as women, what if we run into a bad guy? It's different if I dress up as a man. Those bad guys won't dare to come, right? Besides, even if they do, it will be easier for me to use my fists and kicks, right?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Shen said nothing more. After dinner, Shen Qingqiu and Shen Qingchun left the house.

The elegant blue sedan chair with a square roof made it clear at a glance that the person inside was a rich family kid.

Although today isn't the best day for tide-watching, many people still go. The Qiantang River also has a tide-watching pavilion specifically designed for those literati and scholars. While the pavilion's classical charm and the finest food and tea are both top-notch, those who can afford to spend money there are definitely not ordinary people.

The Tide Watching Tower has three floors, but the first floor is mostly empty because it's built too close to the Qiantang River. If a high tide comes, the lower floors will flood. Therefore, most guests watch the tide from the second floor, where half of the tower protrudes into the Qiantang River, giving you the feeling of being on the river itself and offering a panoramic view.

However, the best viewing point is on the third floor, where there are only four private rooms, each with its own unique charm, making people feel like they are standing between heaven and water.

Of course, I was among the tide-watchers. Needless to say, hundreds of years later, the ways of watching the tides have changed dramatically. I went up to the second floor and sat alone. Soon, the place was full. Then, a few waiters came out and set up four tables, each with pens, inkstones, and paper. I propped my head on one hand, waiting for something new to happen, wondering if it was time for another round of poetry.
