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

This time, Zhao Qingyu followed Gu Qinlan to visit the Zheng family in an open and aboveboard manner.

After all, that was her sister's home, and it was normal for her to stay there for a while.

As soon as she returned home, Zheng Huiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"God, this kind of party is so exhausting."

She was just a guest and felt exhausted. The Zhao family, as the host, would probably be even more tired.

Gu Qinlan was indeed extremely tired, so she simply gathered a few girls, asked them to take off the dazzling ornaments on their heads, wash the dust off their faces, and then lie down in a row on the large and soft couch in her room, allowing the maids to give them soothing massages.

While enjoying the maids' service, Zheng Huiyi couldn't help but sigh, "Today I really understand the meaning of 'saying one thing and thinking another'. Those people are really two-faced. They were so arrogant just now, but in the blink of an eye they became as friendly as family members."

Zhao Qingyu also echoed: "Although I often see such double-faced people, I still feel uncomfortable every time. Especially today, they have no shame at all."

Zheng Huixin said with deep emotion: "My mother is a real general. She doesn't care about these things at all. How did she do it?"

Gu Qinlan smiled and replied, "What's the difficulty? If you don't take them to heart, no matter what they say or do, it won't affect you at all. They looked down on me before because my background was insignificant in their eyes. However, I never look down on myself, never flatter them, and stick to myself, so their prejudice can't hurt me."

"As for their change of attitude later on because I was praised by the Emperor, I knew in my heart that it was only because of the Emperor's favor, not because I had any outstanding qualities. Therefore, their praise had no effect on me."

She has lived two lives, and if she can't even deal with trivial matters like this, then she has lived these two lives in vain.

"You must remember that in life, being yourself is the most important thing. Don't be influenced by the eyes of others, and don't be fooled by sweet words. No matter where you go in the future, as long as you follow this principle, you will not make any mistakes."

Several girls listened attentively and nodded frequently, indicating that they were deeply inspired.

After a day of hard work, they fell asleep while chatting and laughing.

Seeing that the masters were all fast asleep, Fu Yu hurriedly ordered the maids to bring quilts, carefully covered the masters with them, and then led the maids to quietly leave the room.

They spent the night on the couch.

The next day was the Little New Year's Day.

The mansion had already been decorated with a new look, the managers of each department were still those familiar faces, and the maids and servants were still doing their jobs as usual. Although everything had just been arranged, no one felt any discomfort.

This was the first festival that the Zheng family celebrated after moving to the capital, so Gu Qinlan specially prepared a variety of delicious food, including traditional delicacies from Jindu and special snacks from the capital.

The Zheng family and the Liang family spent a lively Little New Year together.

The next task is to prepare New Year’s goods.

Gu Qinlan led several girls to personally draw up a shopping list, and then took them to the streets to buy things so that they could experience the fun of shopping.

When they first arrived in the capital, they were always asked to go out for a walk so that they could get familiar with the city as quickly as possible.

The customs in the Western Wei Kingdom were quite open, especially in the capital, where women shopping could be seen everywhere in the streets.

At first, the girls were very excited about this. With silver in their hands, they went shopping in various shops, and then handed the spoils to their servants or shop assistants to take them back home.

However, after a whole day of shopping, they were exhausted and even the luster in their eyes had faded.

"I never thought spending money could be so physically demanding."

Since we had just arrived in the capital, there were many items missing in the mansion, so naturally there were more things we needed to buy.

The purchase of daily necessities, food and other sundries would naturally be entrusted to the managers in various places, while Gu Qinlan and others would only be responsible for purchasing some valuable items.

Even so, they were exhausted.

Women's passion for shopping seems to be innate and deeply rooted in their souls.

After a night of rest, they stepped out of the house again the next day with passion, and returned with a pair of tired and empty eyes until night fell. This shopping spree lasted for three or four days, and finally they bought everything they needed.

At this time, it was the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month.

The Zhao family sent a carriage and Zhao Qingyu was taken back home. When saying goodbye, she reluctantly held Gu Qinlan and Zheng Huiyi's hands and said expectantly: "I will move all my things here after the New Year!" She had a very comfortable time in the Zheng family these few days. Although she also enjoyed happiness at home, the rules there were complicated and she would be blamed by her mother if she was not careful. In the Zheng family, Gu Qinlan was very indulgent to them, the door was closed, and there was no need to stick to those red tapes. Everything was based on comfort first. Princess Duan was also a casual person, so Zhao Qingyu really didn't want to leave.

Gu Qinlan smiled and responded: "Of course I have no problem with that, but I'm afraid my mother won't agree."

Because after the New Year, Zhao Qingyu will start discussing marriage.

Zhao Qingyu immediately lost interest after hearing this, and tears of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Time passed quietly like running water, and in the blink of an eye it was the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Princess Duan sighed anxiously, "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, why hasn't Ding Lian arrived in Beijing yet?"

Before he finished speaking, a servant came to report: "Madam, Madam, the prince is back."

Zheng Dinglian finally returned.

But he did not return home directly, but went to the palace to meet the emperor first.

Upon learning that her son had returned, Princess Duan could no longer contain her excitement. She asked her maid to fetch her cloak and prepared to personally go to the gate to welcome her son's triumphant return. Everyone could not dissuade her and had to follow Princess Duan, and the Liang family also went with her.

While waiting, small snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Zheng Dinglian braved the wind and snow and slowly returned home.

Princess Duan excitedly stepped forward, her voice trembling: "My son, you are finally back."

Zheng Dinglian seemed unusually calm, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time."

Then, he bowed to Liang and said, "Hello, aunt."

Liang responded with a smile: "Your Highness is too formal. It's cold outside and you haven't had your meal yet. Let's go in first. We can talk in detail after you have your meal."

So, the group walked towards the mansion.

Gu Qinlan followed the crowd, thinking in his mind that he should arrange for the servants to clean up Zheng Dinglian's yard as soon as possible, and make sure to heat up the floor heating in advance.

However, as she walked, she suddenly felt a sense of tranquility.

When I looked up, I found that Zheng Dinglian was the only one left around me.

Zheng Dinglian looked at her surprised expression and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Unexpectedly, she would be distracted while walking, so much so that she didn't even notice that everyone deliberately quickened their pace, leaving her and him behind.

He was very pleased with these small gestures from his family.

This was not because he had any ill intentions, but because he was happy to find that his family had finally regained their vitality.

Yes, rejuvenated.
