Reborn to be replaced, remarried to the royal palace to raise children and train husband

I hope Zheng Huiyi doesn't become so foolish as to venture out into the world with her wild ideas, as that would be courting her own destruction.

After arranging everything, Gu Qinlan gently rubbed her dry eyes, turned her head and asked, "Have my uncle and his family gotten up yet?"

"Qin Lan, your cousin mentioned that there is a yard for rent in the west of the city. Your aunt and I plan to go take a look and rent it if it's suitable."

Jiang Wenyuan looked at Gu Qinlan's sleepy face, his heart filled with pity.

Gu Qinlan was a little anxious: "Uncle, do you feel uncomfortable living here? Or are the servants not considerate enough?"

The servants in Prince Duan's Mansion have become unruly due to the doting of Princess Duan and others. She is afraid that they will gossip about the Jiang family in secret.

Jiang Wenyuan said anxiously, "You misunderstood. Prince Duan's Mansion is indeed a good place, and the servants in the mansion are also very considerate. We just considered that since we chose to settle here, we should settle down the family as soon as possible. Living here for a long time, I am worried that the children will be spoiled. Everyone has their own aspirations, and they should enjoy the life according to their ability. The luxurious life like Prince Duan's Mansion is not something they can afford at the moment."

The two sons of the Jiang family have both started their own families and now have four grandchildren. The oldest is seven years old and the youngest is only three years old.

However, Jiang Wenyuan's words were just an excuse. He didn't want to distract Gu Qinlan from taking care of their family at this critical moment.

How could Gu Qinlan not understand what he meant, so she immediately wanted to persuade him.

Jiang Wenyuan raised his hand to stop her: "Qin Lan, I understand your sincere heart, but you also have to understand the difficulties of your aunt and me. We still have a long future, so there is no need to rush. We will move out temporarily, so that you can concentrate on handling the important matters in the mansion. When everything is settled, it will not be too late for us to get together again."

"Even if something happens in the mansion, we won't ask if you don't tell us. But no matter how big the problem is, we will share it with you. Don't bear it all alone. From today on, you are no longer alone. You have the company of us relatives."

When Gu Qinlan heard this, her heart warmed, her eyes turned red, and tears almost burst out.

She held back her tears and nodded to Jiang Wenyuan: "I'll keep it in mind. Since my uncle and aunt have made the decision, I will follow your arrangement. But if you need any help, please let me know. We are a family and should support each other. If you distance yourself from me, I will be deeply saddened."

Then, she turned to Hongye and ordered, "Go and get a hundred taels of silver."

Jiang Wenyuan hurriedly stopped her: "What do you mean? I still have some silver in my hand."

Gu Qinlan was unwavering: "Uncle, since I have obeyed your wishes, you should also listen to me for once. I know you don't want to drag me down, but I can't stand you living a hard life. Since you said we are a family, then you must accept this kindness. Just think of it as a loan from me, okay?"

She knew the Jiang family's current situation very well. They had just returned from exile and had to move their entire family. How could they have much spare money?

Although the one hundred taels of silver were not a lot of money, it was enough for the Jiang family to rent a courtyard with good conditions and settle down, and still have some money left over to maintain their daily life.

She will take care of the subsequent matters and continue to provide them with assistance.

How could Jiang Wenyuan still have the heart to refuse her words after hearing what she said? So, he took the stack of banknotes.

Jiang Wenyuan has always been a man of his words. After getting the silver note in hand, he immediately invited Yao to go to the west of the city to look for a residence.

Originally, they didn't have much money, so the houses they could choose from were limited, and most of them were in poor condition. However, now with the blessing of the 100 taels of silver, their choice was greatly expanded. In just half a day, they found a suitable courtyard and paid a deposit.

At the same time, Gu Qinlan had a good sleep.

After two consecutive nights of sleeplessness, she could no longer bear it.

Fu Yu was worried that she would get hurt, so she ordered the kitchen to prepare a decoction to calm the nerves and nourish the brain. After Gu Qinlan took it, she closed the doors and windows and dismissed all the servants who had stayed up late. Only Fu Yu, who had not stayed up late, was left to guard the courtyard, while everyone else went to rest.

When Gu Qinlan woke up, it was getting dark.

There is still no news from Zheng Huiyi.

When Jiang Ye reported the news, his tone revealed caution, "I personally led the team to track the old lady to the nunnery where she prayed, but I did not find any trace of the young lady along the way. I also asked the monks in the nunnery, and they said they did not see the young lady coming to ask for help."

"Neither the Zheng family's side branches nor the eldest lady's maternal family have any news about her. The only clue now is in the direction of the northern border."

Gu Qinlan said solemnly: "The possibility of being in Northern Xinjiang is the smallest. She left home because of the stimulation of her brother's letter. At this moment, her heart must be full of resentment towards her brother. Moreover, the terrain in Northern Xinjiang is rugged and the journey is long..."

At this point, Gu Qinlan paused for a moment, realizing that he couldn't infer Zheng Huiyi's behavior with ordinary people's thinking, so he continued: "Continue to send people to search in the direction of the northern border. If you can't find her, go and notify her brother."

"In addition, send people to various pimping shops in the city to inquire about the news, and also... try to look for it in brothels."

Speaking of this, Gu Qinlan's mood became even heavier.

She didn't want to imagine how she would deal with it if Zheng Huiyi really appeared in those places.

No family could tolerate a woman with such an experience.

She could only pray to God to protect Zheng Huiyi from such a fate. Otherwise, in order to protect the family's reputation and the reputation of other women, Zheng Huiyi would probably end up dying.

Jiang Ye asked worriedly: "If the worst happens, how are you going to deal with it?"

If Zheng Huiyi really fell into that situation, the Zheng family might end up blaming Gu Qinlan.

Although Zheng Huiyi suffered the consequences of her own actions, the Zheng family would definitely vent their anger on others. They might firmly believe that it was Gu Qinlan who forced Zheng Huiyi to take this desperate path.

Gu Qinlan was also confused and at a loss at this moment.

Her only hope now is that Zheng Huiyi can be a little luckier and not encounter the worst situation. As for other things, she can only act according to circumstances.

"The news must be kept secret. The servants who are out searching must be repeatedly warned not to leak any information."

Jiang Ye nodded and agreed: "I have repeatedly reminded you many times, Madam, please relax."

Gu Qinlan waved her hand gently: "Cousin, you have been working hard these days, go and have a rest first."

Jiang Ye was indeed exhausted. Since yesterday, he hadn't even had time to drink water.

Worried that his illness would cause more trouble, Jiang Ye took his leave to rest.

After he left, Gu Qinlan stood alone in front of the window, looking at the gloomy sky, frowning and worried.

Zheng Huiyi, oh Zheng Huiyi, you'd better protect yourself, otherwise you will be in a desperate situation with no way to escape.
