Fuling was very pleased with the praise. He raised his chin slightly and said confidently, "You don't have to be too modest. I'm not as stingy as some people. I'm a person who rewards and punishes clearly. If you have any good ideas in the future, just tell me. As long as they work, I won't let you down."

Madam Liao couldn't stop smiling and kept praising Fuling's wisdom.

After Fuling left, Madam Liao snorted contemptuously.

"Miss, there's news from the Ji family that the second young lady has been taken back."

Fu Yu showed a sly smile: "Madam Ji used that strategy to the fullest, and the second young lady has been firmly controlled."

"Girl, you are so wise that you can calculate every move of each person perfectly!"

Gu Qinlan smiled gently. It was not that she really knew all the secrets of heaven, but because she had suffered losses in her previous life, she knew very well how the other party would react, which was why Madam Liao offered that preemptive strategy.

Wasn't Gu Qinlian trying to replace her? Then, all the grievances and hardships she had suffered in her previous life would naturally have to be tasted by Gu Qinlian, and this would be considered a true replacement.

Now, Madam Ji and Ji Yinli have completely controlled Gu Qinlian. Next, it is time for her to experience the true face of the Ji family.

Gu Qinlan was full of expectations. "Give Madam Liao more reward money and ask her to pay close attention to the Ji family's every move."

Fu Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, young lady. Everything has been arranged. Madam Liao is eager to come and report every day."

You know, every time you visit, you can get a generous reward. This is much more generous than the wages provided by the Ji family, and the corners of Liao Ma's mouth are almost crooked with smiles.

Gu Qinlan temporarily put aside all the troubles about Gu Qinlian and counted the days silently in his heart: "Three months have passed in the blink of an eye. Why is there still no news from Luo Feng?"

She had previously entrusted Luo Feng to investigate the old story between her mother and the Jiang family. Initially, Luo Feng vowed that there would be definite results within two months.

Unexpectedly, two months passed in a flash, and three months also passed, but there was still no progress.

What made her even more anxious was that she had lost contact with Luo Feng herself.

This made her anxious, fearing that Luo Feng might encounter some misfortune while helping her investigate.

So, she decided to go to the martial arts training ground and find Polang who was teaching Zheng Fenghui martial arts.

When I arrived, I unexpectedly found that Zheng Fengyun was also there.

That tiny figure, not even as tall as an adult's waist, was able to perform martial arts moves in a very capable manner in the martial arts training ground.

However, Polang ignored him.

After all, he had only promised Gu Qinlan to teach Zheng Fenghui for only one hour a day. He would not agree to add one more person, or even an extra quarter of an hour.

Just as Zheng Fenghui was immersed in training and Polang was concentrating on teaching, Gu Qinlan did not disturb them but waved to Zheng Fengyun.

Zheng Fengyun immediately restrained his movements, walked meekly in front of Gu Qinlan, and bowed respectfully: "Fengyun greets mother."

Gu Qinlan bent down with a smile, wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief, and asked gently, "Why are you here to practice boxing?"

This child was usually very quiet, making almost no noise, and had a very low sense of presence. He was completely different from his two lively brothers, and people almost ignored his existence.

Zheng Fengyun replied meekly, "My elder brother said that practicing martial arts can strengthen the body, so I came here. Mother, am I not qualified to learn martial arts?"

After he finished speaking, Zheng Fengyun's eyes showed uneasiness and he looked at her nervously.

His wet nurse also hurried forward and stammered to explain: "Madam, it was the Second Young Master who insisted on practicing. No matter how I persuaded him, he would not…"

Gu Qinlan stopped the wet nurse from making excuses and looked down at Zheng Fengyun.

Although she knew that the child was very smart, at the moment, he was just a three-year-old child, looking up at her with his big, innocent eyes. Who could have the heart to refuse him?

So, she gently held his little cheek, rubbed it gently, and said softly: "As long as it is not evil, anything is worth trying. But you are still young, remember to protect yourself and don't get hurt. You can start with the basics, step by step, and lay a solid foundation."

"Your elder brother is right. Practicing martial arts can not only improve your health, but also protect yourself. It is always beneficial to learn more skills."

In his previous life, this young master had reached the core of power at a young age. However, his physique was quite fragile, and he had to rest and recuperate for half a year out of the year.

Since I married into this family, the young master has gained some weight, and his originally thin face has gradually become plump and tender. If he can practice martial arts diligently, he will no longer be as weak and sickly as in his previous life.

Zheng Fengyun's little face was filled with joy: "Then, can I continue to practice boxing?"

Gu Qinlan nodded with a smile: "Go ahead."

The nurse finally let go of the worry in her heart and said with an awkward smile: "Madam, I wanted to report this to you, but the second young master wouldn't let me..."

Gu Qinlan's tone was calm but revealed no doubt: "You failed to take good care of me and tried to shirk your responsibility. You don't have to serve in the residence of the second young master anymore. Go find Fu Yu and ask her to arrange other errands for you."

The wet nurse was suddenly panicked and wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy.

She knew that taking care of the young master was undoubtedly a good job. The young master was always gentle and polite, rarely cried, and was amazingly well-behaved. This job was easy and well-paid. Which servant in the mansion didn't envy her good luck? However, now, this enviable job was about to leave her.

Fu Yu quickly stopped the nurse's behavior: "There is no need to kowtow and admit your mistakes. It will not help, and will only make Madam more unhappy."

The wet nurse had no choice but to retreat in frustration.

Gu Qinlan ordered: "Choose another attentive and considerate wet nurse for the second young master."

Fu Yu immediately agreed.

After waiting for about half an hour, Polang finished the lesson, but Zheng Fenghui still had to continue practicing.

Polang walked over and nodded slightly to Gu Qinlan: "What instructions does Madam have?"

Gu Qinlan's face was full of worry: "Do you have a way to get in touch with Luo Feng? She has been away from home for three months. I am worried that she has met with an accident."

Polang said calmly, "No need to contact her. She will come back naturally when she feels the time has come. As for Madam's worry, it is unnecessary. She accepts missions and collects money. If she really encounters misfortune, it can only be said that she is not good at learning skills and it is her fate. It has nothing to do with Madam, and the Golden Sword Sect will not have any prejudice against Madam because of this."

Gu Qinlan insisted: "I am not worried about this, I am concerned about her life. She is your fellow disciple, don't you worry about her safety?"

Polang looked at her in confusion: "Just because we are from the same sect, I have to worry about her?"

Polang put his hands behind his back, turned around and left, muttering in a low voice: "If she is really killed by someone, we in the Golden Sword Sect will naturally collect her body and avenge her."
