She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband
Chapter 29 Chance Encounter
After several people came out of Aunt Zhou's yard, Li Jingwan asked Aunt Tong to stay first.
"Madam Tong, among all the other madams, you are the calmest and the most talkative. You should spend more time with Madam Zhou and comfort her. Don't be sad all the time, or it will harm your health."
"Yes, Madam." Aunt Tong responded.
"By the way, have you taken the tonic that the old lady gave you?"
"I'm drinking it." Aunt Tong nodded, "Lian'er makes medicine for me every day."
Li Jingwan was relieved. "That's good. Now that Aunt Zhou has no children, the Marquis only has a son, Brother Fan, so his heirs are a bit thin. If you give birth to a child soon, the Marquis and the old lady will be very happy."
"I understand."
She also held out hope that she would get pregnant before Tang Qiaoyin.

The carriage stopped in front of a shop in the north of the city. Li Jingwan got off and looked up. There was no plaque hanging at the door.
Xiang Mingfang was waiting at the door and lifted the door curtain. "Miss, please come in."
After entering, there is a hall with two main seats in the center. Above the seats is a couplet:
"The escort travels through rugged terrain to drive away evil spirits and monsters, while the teacher teaches us about benevolence and righteousness and discusses copper, iron, gold and silver."
The yard behind the hall is wide and flat. Xiang Mingfang introduced that this is the central yard, which is mainly used for the bodyguards' daily training.
Because Li Jingwan was coming today and Zhu Gaozhi didn't want other people to know her relationship with the escort agency, he gave all the escorts a day off today.
The rooms on both sides of the central courtyard are used for the escorts to rest, and the backyard is a stable with seven or eight fat and strong horses with shiny coats, which are obviously suitable for long-distance travel.
"The layout is good." Li Jingwan was very satisfied. "Where is Coach Zhu?"
As soon as the words fell, Zhu Gaozhi's cheerful voice came, "Miss, I'm here."
There was another room next to the stable. Zhu Gaozhi stood at the door and waved, "Miss, come over here and take a look."
Li Jingwan walked in and found it was an empty room with only some wooden shelves. "Master Zhu, what is this for?"
"Arsenal." Zhu Gaozhi grinned. "It's an indispensable item for escorting. It's what we use to eat and save our lives."
"Where are the weapons?"
"It has been handed over to the weapons shop, and we are going to inspect the goods today."
Li Jingwan became interested and said, "Take me with you."
Zhu Gaozhi agreed immediately, "No problem, Miss. If you are satisfied, we can go now."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Xiang Mingfang said, "We haven't even chosen a name for the escort agency yet."
"Yes, yes, yes, I forgot about it." Zhu Gaozhi slapped his forehead.
"Miss, the name of the escort agency is up to you. You come up with a name, and we'll make the plaque and the escort flag."
Li Jingwan thought about it and raised her eyebrows, "Shunchang Escort Agency."
Xiang Mingfang unpacked the characters and said, "This is a good name. It means success and prosperity."
Li Jingwan smiled and said, "No, it's Shunchang, as in 'those who obey me prosper, those who disobey me perish'."
Zhu Gaozhi laughed out loud, "As expected of General Li's daughter, the eldest lady has a very domineering name."
The name of the escort agency was decided, and Li Jingwan followed them to the weapons shop.
There were only men inside, so Li Jingwan and Cuiyu both put on veils and went straight to the finished product warehouse under the guidance of the owner of the weapons shop.
The boss pointed to a set of weapons on a table and introduced them to Zhu Gaozhi, "Master Zhu, these are finished products. I picked some for you to take a look."
On the table are conventional weapons, including knives, swords, halberds, etc.
Li Jingwan picked up a sword with interest, which was quite heavy.
Fortunately, she has been exercising regularly during this period, and she can even spin the sword a few times when she picks it up, which shows quite a bit of momentum.
The boss was very supportive and praised her repeatedly, "This lady dances really well."
Zhu Gaozhi also cheered and gave on-the-spot instructions, "Miss, press your wrists down."
Li Jingwan did as she was told and made another sword flower, with the tip of the arrow pointing towards the warehouse door.
Then, she saw Chu Tingyu appear, with the tip of the sword pointing at his face.
Tianxi immediately became cautious, but Chu Tingyu remained calm.
Li Jingwan immediately put down her sword, but was afraid that Chu Tingyu would recognize her voice, so she did not dare to speak. She bent down to apologize and walked aside, feeling uneasy.
When the boss saw Chu Tingyu, he hurriedly went to greet him, "Mr. Zhong, why are you here? Come in."
Li Jingwan understood that Chu Tingyu's biological mother, the Imperial Noble Consort, was named Zhong, and he used her surname.
Xiang Mingfang and Zhu Gaozhi, who had never met Chu Tingyu, continued to discuss with great interest, while Li Jingwan listened without saying a word.
But I always feel like there is someone watching me from behind.
After inspecting the goods, Li Jingwan did not dare to stay and left immediately.
Chu Tingyu then asked the boss, "Is that girl and her group here to buy weapons?"
"Yes." The boss nodded, "They are here to inspect the goods today."
"What are you buying for?"
The boss thought for a moment and said, "It seems like he's running an escort agency."
Thinking of the scene where Li Jingwan pointed a sword at him just now, a smile flashed in Chu Tingyu's eyes.
The moves she performed with the sword were pretty good; she must have practiced them before.
But Li Jingwan thought that she was not recognized because she was wearing a veil, so she kept her head down and didn't say anything.
What does the escort agency have to do with her?
Chu Tingyu waved his hand and Tianxi stepped forward.
"Go check..."

After Qingming Festival, the weather becomes warmer and flowers bloom. It is the time of year to enjoy the flowers.
The flowers in the Marquis's garden were in full bloom, so Li Jingwan invited the concubines from each room to come and enjoy the flowers, and also invited Qin Lingyun.
Only Aunt Zhou was ill and did not come.
Everyone sat in the flower pavilion, and after the maid brought tea and snacks, they began to chat.
Li Jingwan put down the teacup and said, "Sister Yun, tomorrow you are free, go to the clothing store and make a new set of clothes."
"Aunt, why do you want to make new clothes?" Qin Lingyun was puzzled.
"Did you forget? Didn't you say you wanted to attend the Princess' flower viewing banquet?" Li Jingwan said with a smile, "My mother has already sent someone to deliver the invitation to the flower viewing banquet this morning."
Qin Lingyun was so happy that she lost her reserve and said in surprise, "Really, aunt?"
"Of course." Li Jingwan nodded.
"Aunt, thank you." She stepped forward and took Li Jingwan's wrist, saying coquettishly, "Aunt is indeed the best to me."
Aunt Liang snorted in her heart, thinking that Li Jingwan was the most useful to her.
Li Jingwan smiled and tapped her forehead, "Our sister Yun is pretty and good at talking, everyone likes her."
Tang Qiaoyin felt jealous when she saw her daughter and Li Jingwan being so intimate.
Obviously, she is Qin Lingyun's biological mother, but she cannot recognize her. She can only watch helplessly as she tries to please her enemy and leaves her, her biological mother, aside.
After the show, Tang Qiaoyin followed Qin Lingyun back to her yard.
As soon as Qin Lingyun entered the house, she took out her jewelry box and began to choose jewelry to wear to the flower-viewing banquet.
Tang Qiaoyin closed the door and walked over to remind her, "Sister Yun, Li Jingwan is very scheming. You have to be careful of her and don't be fooled by her."
"I know." Qin Lingyun didn't even raise her head.
"Don't have any contact with her. She is the most..."
Qin Lingyun was impatient, "Mom, she can take me to the Princess's flower viewing banquet, can you?"
