When Qin Shu and her group arrived at Lanting, someone was already waiting there.

Officials from the Ministry of Personnel presented Qin Shu with her appointment documents, official seal, and official uniform, as well as the banner representing the Jiedushi's power and status.

And, a letter Zhou Min wrote to Qin Shu.

This time when Qin Shu went north, in addition to Fu Rong, she was also accompanied by Mo Laowu, Zhu Zhi, Qing Liu and others.

After bidding farewell to the court officials, Qin Shu boarded the carriage and continued heading north.

Jinzhou is located in the northeast of the capital, and the emperor also allowed Qin Shu to go home to worship her ancestors before taking up her new post.

This time, Qin Shu can be said to have returned home in glory.

Outside Jinzhou City, a few miles away, Qin Shu saw a large group of people standing on the roadside.

When the carriage got closer, they found that it was the Qin clan leader and his clan members who were guarding the roadside.

I think he learned that Qin Shu was returning to the city, so he waited here on purpose.

The carriage slowly stopped by the roadside.

The clan leader came over with a smile on his face, "I heard that Shu'er had returned home recently, so I specially sent someone to Chunshan Manor to wait for her."

"As soon as you get any news about you, come back and tell me. You haven't been home for more than a year, and your family is really missing you."

Qin Shu lifted her skirt and got off the carriage. She bowed slightly to the clan leader and said, "Uncle."

"Oh, no, no. Now you are also a second-rank official in the court. You can be regarded as the first woman to serve as an official throughout history."

The clan leader smiled until his face flushed and his eyes narrowed into slits, "Our Qin family can finally hold our heads high and feel proud for once."

The eldest uncle and aunt also came forward and said with a smile: "Seeing that father is only busy talking, he should invite Shuer back to the clan to have a good meal. Shuer hasn't been home for a year, and she should also burn incense for her brother and sister-in-law, don't you think so, Shuer?"

Qin Shu smiled slightly, "Thank you all for your kindness. But Qin Shu needs to go back to the city and go back to the mansion. When I have time tomorrow, I will definitely go back to the clan."

The tribe leader smiled and said, "It's closer to the tribe from here. We have prepared the carriages, and everyone in the tribe is preparing wine and food before we go out. When Shu'er returns, we will have a feast right away. It is a token of our kindness."

Judging from the situation, these people will definitely not give up if Qin Shu doesn't return to the clan.

What's more, Qin Shu had not been home for a year, and she also wanted to burn a stick of incense in front of her parents' spirits and tell them what had happened during this period.

Qin Shu asked Zhu Zhi to drive the carriage back to the city, and she took Fu Rong, Mo Laowu and four others, and followed the Qin clan's carriage back to Qinjialing.

Before the carriage climbed up the steep slope of Qinjialing, someone at the top of the slope shouted, "Here we come, here we come."

Following the shouting, a burst of "crackling" sound of firecrackers rang out.

The children in the tribe were as happy as if it were New Year’s Day, running around.

The clan school also gave a day off because Qin Shu returned home.

The children and teachers from the clan school were also waiting at the entrance of the village.

Qin Shu looked at this scene, not knowing whether to feel relieved or ironic.

This was the first time in her life that she was so welcomed by her tribesmen.

This is the first time I have received such treatment.

Those days when he had to deal with the Qin clan and Qin Jingchang in order to protect his parents' property in the mansion seemed to have become a dream deep in his memory.

The group first went to the Qin clan ancestral hall, where Qin Shu washed her hands, burned incense for her parents, and kowtowed.

He then recounted in detail in front of his parents' spirits what had happened in the past few days.

Finally, Qin Shu hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Dad, Mom, Shuer has found the person she wants in her heart. Don't worry, Dad and Mom, Shuer is no longer the Shuer of the past. Shuer will definitely live a very good life in the future!"

After bowing again, Qin Shu left the ancestral hall.

Afterwards, he was surrounded and walked at the front of the team with the patriarch.

Seeing the children jumping and skipping, she asked, "Uncle, Shu'er is not at home. Did you get the money for the clan school last year?"

The clan leader said quickly, "They have come. They have come. Several members of the clan who were out doing business have returned a few days ago."

"In the past, your father was the only one who supported the clan school. Now everyone has a business and money. The clan's affairs should not be supported by you alone."

"So everyone sat together and discussed it. From now on, if Shu'er has enough money, she will give 3,000 taels of silver every year to the clan school. If it's not enough, everyone will contribute."

The old patriarch was old and began to pant after walking a few steps.

He was speaking out of breath, but he still insisted on finishing what he had to say.

Qin Shu smiled and said nothing.

The great uncle went on to say, "There is also the Jingyuan Temple in our clan. Your great uncle has also arranged for someone to offer incense."

"When children in the clan go to school for the first time, they must first go to the Jingyuan Temple to burn incense. Only after offering sacrifices to the Marquis of Zhongping can they be considered to be officially enrolled."

"Before every exam, we have to go to the temple to burn incense. The Marquis and his wife are in heaven, and they bless the children of the clan. Last year, 90% of the Qin clan students who took the county exam passed the exam."

My uncle's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Thirteen students took the provincial examination, and ten of them passed the examination as scholars, and seven passed the examination as juren."

"Now our Qin family school is well-known throughout Jinzhou City. Many students from other places also come here to learn from our reputation."

He pushed open the door, "We're here."

Everyone in the yard stood up at the same time.

More than a dozen aunts, aunts and cousins ​​came up to her, held her hands, and talked and laughed.

Like hundreds of thousands of ducks out of the cage at the same time.

Qin Shu's scalp was numb from the explosion.

The eldest aunt raised her hand and pressed it down hard. "Alright, alright. Shu'er has come all the way from the capital and has worked hard. Let's talk less and let Shu'er sit down and have a rest and drink some tea."

Amidst the chatter, Qin Shu was taken to the main table.

Qin Shu smiled and refused, "Everyone here is my elder, how can I sit here?"

"We are all family, there is no need to be so particular."

"Yes, Shu'er, we have all heard of your contributions. You are a hero of our Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Let's not talk about those outsiders. How much benefit have we in the Qin family gained from Shu'er? Besides Shu'er, who else can sit in this position?"

"Yes, yes, Shu'er should sit here, come and sit down."

Qin Shu glanced at the tribesmen and found that Qin Anqi was not there.

My eldest cousin Qin Anzheng is not here either.

The eldest cousin and his wife didn't want others to think that they were rude at first and respectful later, while Qin Anqi was too embarrassed to sit here.

Fu Rong was pushed to the periphery by the enthusiastic Qin clan members. He looked at Qin Shu, who was like the moon surrounded by stars, from afar and smiled secretly with his head down.

Qin Shu looked at him and called out, "Ah'er."

All eyes were suddenly fixed on him.

Qin Shu extended her hand to him and said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you all, Fu Rong, the head of the Fu family. He is also my fiancé."

Fu Rong froze in place for a moment.

Seeing that he was just staring at her stupidly, Qin Shu smiled and called out, "Ah'er?"

Fu Ying then took a step forward and walked towards Qin Shu with unsteady steps as if he was drunk.

The clan leader and the eldest son looked at each other, then smiled and asked, "This is a happy event, a great happy event. Today, our Qin family has a double happiness."

Then he tried his best to let Fu Yan sit next to Qin Shu.

Logically speaking, when Qin Shu gets married or finds a husband, her household registration should be changed from a female household registration to her original household registration.

The property of the Qin Mansion also needs to be taken over by the former members of the clan.

But at this moment it seemed that everyone had forgotten, or simply chose to turn a deaf and dumb.

After all, Qin Shu's status here, just based on this identity, brings much more benefits to the clan than those shops and properties.

Who dares to mention the property of the Qin family without fear of death?
