Zhou Jin was in the Zen room, waiting anxiously.

I felt sleepy, my eyes were full of tears and a little misty, and I dozed off at the table.

With a "squeak" sound, the door was opened.

Zhou Jin opened his eyes and saw Lai Fu coming in. He was no longer sleepy. "Lai Fu, did you find out?"

"This..." The smile on Lai Fu's face froze. Thinking of how the Crown Prince was often so angry with his wife that his temper was getting worse and worse, he couldn't let the Crown Prince know that he forgot to ask and was only busy chatting with Sister Xiulan.

"Laifu, you haven't forgotten, have you?" Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes slightly with suspicion.

If so, break the dog's legs.

Lai Fu was startled and shook his head repeatedly, "Prince, how could I forget? This is a top priority! Just now, Miss Xiulan was guarding outside the old lady's meditation room, and she didn't hear what the prince said inside."

"Haha, is that so?" Zhou Jin didn't miss the flash of guilt in Lai Fu's eyes. He gritted his teeth secretly, "I think you forgot my instructions after seeing the beauty!"

I have to say, the truth about Zhou Jin is revealed!

Unless they are caught in person, the servants will of course try to make excuses.

What could move the old lady was nothing more than the safety of the prince and the inheritance of the Changning Marquis's Mansion.

Yes, it is offspring, which is a powerful reason.

"Your Highness, you have wronged me. Although Miss Xiulan did not hear everything, she heard a few words vaguely. When she mentioned great-grandchildren, the old lady must want to hold them."

Zhou Jin was surprised, and then thought that this reason could indeed impress his grandmother.

Gu Xi is clever, eloquent, thick-skinned and shameless enough to say such words!

Zhou Jin secretly complained that Gu Xiling, who always made him so angry, actually wanted to have a baby with him.

This proved that Gu Xiling was far from not caring about him as she appeared to be, and was secretly trying every means to reconcile with him.

Humph, how could he let Gu Xiling get what she wanted so easily?

At least... at least Gu Xiling has to submit to him, admit her mistakes, and truly follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, then he will reluctantly accept Gu Xiling.

Zhou Jin was in a good mood when he thought of the way to control Gu Xiling.

Zhou Jin relaxed his whole body, lay down on the bed, and soon fell into a sweet dream.

In a dream.

Not only did Gu Xiling not get angry with him, she also tried to please him in every way, responding to his every request and being gentle and docile.

He was happy, and a trip to Zizhu Garden would make Gu Xiling ecstatic.

Once he left, Gu Xiling lost her appetite and missed him every day.

Whatever he said, Gu Xiling dared not say no, she was so obedient.

Otherwise, there is everything in dreams!

Gu Xiling was also dreaming, but Zhou Jin was not in the dream.

When I mentioned children today, I thought about them during the day and dreamed about them at night.

Her children from her previous life appeared in her dream.

In order to avoid having her entire family executed, Gu Xiling spent all her time making plans for Xie Jin, and the children were left to be raised by a wet nurse.

She is close to her wet nurse, but not to her biological mother.

Seeing that Xie Jin was about to become the regent, he was only one step away from that position.

The wet nurses' minds also became more deviant and they even tried to induce them to compete with each other for the position of the crown prince.

The plan was that after Xie Jin ascended the throne, he would become the crown prince and the wet nurse's family would also enjoy wealth and glory.

She allowed her two sons to compete, but she would never do anything dirty or turn the brothers against each other and fight to the death.

She ordered the wet nurse of her two sons to be beaten to death, and at the same time, her two sons bore a grudge against her and threatened to avenge her.

When she heard her son say those words with her own ears, she knew that her mother-son relationship with her two sons was over!

Only the youngest daughter understands her suffering and her tiredness.

After being reborn, she no longer missed anything related to Xie Jin, except for her delicate and soft daughter.

But her husband in this life has changed to Zhou Jin.

Can her Anan still come to her side?

Because she missed Anan, Gu Xiling cried in her dream, with tears sliding down the corners of her eyes.

Xiulan was sleeping on a couch not far from Gu Xiling's bed. When she heard Gu Xiling crying, she woke up immediately, turned over, and lit the oil lamp, "Miss, Miss, why are you crying?"

Gu Xiling was awakened by Xiulan, she opened her eyes and sat up.

Xiulan placed the peony pillow behind Gu Xiling and poured a glass of water, "Miss, drink some water."

"I'm not thirsty." Gu Xiling shook her head, covered her face with her hands, and wiped away the tears on her face.

Xiulan squatted in front of the window and said, "Miss, I know you are suffering. I have not been educated and do not understand the truth, but I have to live my life."

"Tonight, Lai Fu, the prince's long-time attendant, came to see me. He must like me. I asked Madam Yuan and found out that Lai Fu is a good person. I want to ask the young lady for mercy and marry me to Lai Fu."

"It will be convenient for me to ask Lai Fu about the prince's movements in the future. Besides, both the lady and the old lady like the young lady. Slowly, we will be able to live a good life in the Marquis' Mansion."

Although Gu Xiling wiped away her tears, her thoughts were still immersed in missing her daughter.

Hearing Xiulan's words, she was slightly stunned, "Xiulan, you are my dowry maid, don't you want to become the prince's concubine like Xiuzhu?"

When Xiulan thought of Xiuzhu who was beaten to pieces, she shrank her head in fear, "Miss, I don't have any great ambitions. I just want to live a peaceful and down-to-earth life."

She felt that Miss Xiling was more resourceful, and she didn't want to compete with her for a man and be regarded as a thorn in her side by her.

Gu Xiling was surprised. In her previous life, Xiulan was Zhou Jin's concubine. She was so cruel that she poisoned Gu Xirong's young son to death.

But now Xiulan said that she didn't want to be a concubine, and even asked her to help arrange a marriage for Lai Fu, which didn't seem fake.

"It's rare that you're smart." Gu Xiling smiled, "You requested, and I've agreed. I'll let Madam Yuan take care of it when the time comes."

"Yes, miss. It's late at night, go to bed early, and you have to get up early in the morning to travel." Xiulan persuaded with all her heart.

Gu Xiling fell asleep, and in the darkness, she felt that Xiulan was right.

Life will always go on!

She was willing to spend her whole life doing good deeds in exchange for Anan becoming her daughter again and loving her well.

The next day, dawn.

The coachman checked the carriage again, and the servants loaded the luggage onto the carriage one after another.

"Grandma, please be careful with your step." Gu Xiling reminded softly and helped the old lady into the carriage.

Zhou Jin supported the other side, his cold eyes passing over Gu Xiling from time to time.

Seeing that Gu Xiling had no attempt to please him, Zhou Jin reminded himself to stay calm and not lose his composure.

Whoever gets confused first or gets anxious first will lose!

Gu Xiling rode in the same carriage with the old lady. As the old lady was very old, the carriage was moving more slowly.

Despite this, in just one hour, the thin old lady was shaken to a pale face.

Gu Xiling sat beside the old lady, "Grandma, you will feel more comfortable if you lean on your granddaughter-in-law."

"No, that will tire you out. I can still hold on." The old lady was not the type to blame others, so she gritted her teeth and persisted.

Seeing this, Gu Xiling put her arm around the old lady's back.

Forcing the old lady's body against hers, her voice was soft and sincere.

"Grandma, please don't be polite to your granddaughter-in-law. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today. Xiling is stupid and has nothing to repay you. I just hope to be able to be filial to you and thank you for protecting me."
