Zhenzhen was quite delighted, and immediately went back to the study to write the letter. Being quite clever, though, at the signature, she wrote her own father's name. Even though the handwriting didn't resemble his and looked childish, easily recognisable at first glance, the message was clear.
Not to mention how Cui Qingrou felt upon receiving this "special" letter, Old Lady Cui was more than happy to see it. That very afternoon, she called the embroidery room to measure her daughter for new clothes, and even summoned the Shopkeeper from Treasure Pavilion to personally select a headpiece design, commissioning its completion within a month.
Cui Qingrou had plenty of clothes and initially didn't want to go through the hassle, lest people thought her frivolous, but she was persuaded by Old Lady Cui's words, "You are not dressing up for your future husband, but to show those children how much you value their invitation. In other words, you are keeping them in your heart."
