If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

When he walked out of Shenwu Gate, Aunt Xiao was waiting for him outside the door.

"Rong'er, what's going on? Have you been selected?" The aunt couldn't hide her anxious look, and Lingrong could understand. After all, if she was selected, she would have to consider the issue of housing. If she was not selected, she would have to prepare her belongings and return home.

"Aunt, I won," Ling Rong said the news, and Aunt's expression instantly changed from worry to joy.

"Aunt, don't be happy too soon. I heard that the imperial edict will be announced in a few days. Then there will be a teaching nanny to teach us the rules. We have been living in the inn, which is not appropriate." Ling Rong said with a wry smile, and Aunt Xiao became even more worried.

The two looked at each other in silence and returned to the inn. The innkeeper greeted them with a smile when they returned.

"Miss An, may I ask if you can select us?" The shopkeeper was so enthusiastic for a reason. After all, if they were not selected, they should be kicked out. An Lingrong had a high fever a few days ago, and he had waived their meal expenses and part of the room fee for the sake of the talent show.

An Lingrong bowed and said to the shopkeeper with a smile, "Thank you for your concern. Although my daughter is not talented, she has been put on the list for employment. I'm sure an imperial decree will be delivered here in a few days." The few of them talked as they walked.

"Congratulations, young lady. May I ask, young lady, what are the arrangements for the future?" The shopkeeper looked at Ling Rong. This was the imperial concubine who left his inn. It would be great if she could do me some good in the future. Even if not, it would be a credit to the inn.

Lingrong was worrying about this. She was just sleepy and someone handed her a pillow. "To be honest with you, shopkeeper, I'm worried about this too. In a couple of days the eunuch will come to announce the decree and teach Nanny Yin. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to stay in the inn with so many people coming and going." Lingrong looked very worried. This seemed to be a stump for her.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment and said to Lingrong, "My lady, I have a small courtyard at the corner of the inn. It's not big, just one entrance. If you don't mind, you can stay there first." The place was idle anyway, so it would be a favor for her to move in.

Aunt Xiao was also worried at first, but when she heard what the shopkeeper said, she suddenly became happy and said, "Thank you very much, shopkeeper. You have solved our urgent problem."

Lingrong was almost dancing with joy when she saw Aunt Xiao's happy face. She had already walked to the door of the room and bowed to the shopkeeper again, "Shopkeeper, you really helped us a lot. If Lingrong had a hairline, she would never forget you."

The shopkeeper stepped aside. After all, Ling Rong was already a high-ranking official, so he did not dare to accept the gift. "My dear, please take a rest first. I will have someone clean up the courtyard first, and you can move in later."

Ling Rong thanked the shopkeeper again and returned to the guest room with Aunt Xiao. They had a meal and rested for a while before starting to embroider.

"Rong'er, since you've been selected, why do you still do embroidery? Don't strain your eyes. Your mother does embroidery day and night..." Aunt Xiao choked up. They lived under the same roof and had witnessed the ruthlessness of men. Aunt Xiao sympathized with Lingrong and her daughter, but was also worried about her own future life.

"Auntie, I'll do more embroidery now to save some money for you, and then add some money to myself. The palace is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. It's hard to get around without money." Lingrong said and continued to do embroidery. In fact, Lingrong also knew that the little embroidery she did would not save much money. It's just that she would be bored if she was left idle now.
