Reborn to be replaced, remarried to the royal palace to raise children and train husband
Chapter 82: Adding Dowry for the Wedding
Patriarch Zheng looked slightly embarrassed, and said in a gentle tone, "Don't worry too much, niece-in-law. We can discuss this matter slowly..."
However, Gu Qinlan interrupted him without hesitation: "This matter cannot be delayed! Uncle, Fenghui is the hope of our Zheng family. If he cannot go to school, I will be restless day and night. However, my ability is limited, and I am not up to this important task."
She turned to the head of the Zheng clan, and said sincerely, "Uncle, although our direct and side branches seldom interact with each other in daily life, blood is thicker than water, and we share the same roots and origins. There is only one Zheng. Therefore, I will trouble you all to help Feng Hui find a school. When the prince returns, I will tell him everything about this matter, so that he will know the unity of our Zheng family. Then he can fight the enemy with peace of mind when he goes to the battlefield again."
These words left Chief Zheng speechless and unable to refute.
After the group left Prince Duan's Mansion, they suddenly realized that they had come here to ask for accountability, but how come they had taken over such a difficult task instead?
Zheng Fenghui was extremely naughty.
In this golden city, which school is willing to take him in?
They looked at each other, feeling helpless. What should they do?
Gu Qinlan didn't care how conflicted they were, she had already skillfully thrown this hot potato away.
No matter what the result is, she will not have a good reputation if she tries to find a school for Zheng Fenghui.
If she could find a good place, it would be her responsibility and nothing surprising. But if she made a mistake, she would be accused of being a dishonest stepmother and deliberately delaying the future of the eldest grandson of the Zheng family.
Thinking of the indiscriminate attitude of these old guys coming to hold her accountable, she decided not to interfere too much.
As for whether they would find a suitable school for Zheng Fenghui, she did not intend to worry too much. How could Zheng Fenghui's character be easily changed by a good school?
At this moment, she did not correct Zheng Fenghui's idea, and she only thought, "Mind your own business and prolong your life."
Gu Qinlan easily put the matter behind her and instead began to appreciate Gu Qinlian with relish.
Gu Qinlian's wedding date has arrived, and the wedding is imminent. However, at this critical moment, Ji Yinli suddenly proposed to cancel the engagement.
All this happened because of Gu Qinlan's intervention, which allowed Ji Yinli and his maid to learn the truth about the miscarriage.
Mrs. Ji learned that it was the Gu family who bribed the nanny and secretly gave the maid an abortion drug, causing the maid to lose her child and have difficulty getting pregnant again in the future. She cursed at home for several days.
"What a cruel and vicious woman, she even refused to let go of an unborn child! Why should she be so afraid of a girl born out of wedlock! She is just a merchant, yet she dares to be so arrogant! My poor grandson, why is his fate so tragic..."
As for the nanny who betrayed her master, she was kicked out of the house by Madam Ji.
There was also unrest in Ji Yinli's yard.
The maid had been with him since childhood and was his first woman. She held an irreplaceable position in Ji Yinli's heart. Having lost his child and being unable to conceive again, his hatred for Gu Qinlian could not be further increased.
The maid knew very well that she could not compare with Gu Qinlian, so she stopped arguing and just spent the whole day silently holding the small clothes she made for the child and crying quietly.
Ji Yinli felt distressed when he saw her, and comforted her softly: "Lanyi, don't be so sad, your health is important. When you recover, we will have another child."
Lan Yi's eyes were blurred with tears, and her voice was weak: "My lord, I don't dare to hope for anything else. Since the women of the Gu family can't tolerate me, I don't want to make things difficult for you. As long as my body recovers a little, I will take the initiative to request to live in the manor. From then on, I will pray for you every day there. May God bless you to pass the imperial examination as soon as possible. When you are successful, you don't have to endure these grievances anymore."
The name Ji Yinli seems to carry an indescribable pride and fragility.
Ji Yinli is a man who is both extremely conceited and extremely self-deprecating.
In his previous life, Gu Qinlan had spared no effort to pave the way for him, but once he gained power, the first target of his attack was Gu Qinlan. He could not stand others questioning that he relied on the power of a woman to reach his high position.
In this life, the reason why the Gu family is so unscrupulous towards him is not because he needs the Gu family's help, which makes the Gu family dare to be so arrogant?
When Ji Yinli thought that he might be controlled by such a person in the future, he felt a suffocating sense of oppression.
So he found Mrs. Ji and said something shocking, which stunned her on the spot: "I want to cancel the engagement. I will never allow myself to marry such a narrow-minded and vicious woman!"
Mrs. Ji's eyes went dark when she heard this, and she asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you? The wedding date is approaching, but you suddenly want to cancel the engagement! Your marriage has been finalized. If you don't fulfill the engagement, your spine will be broken!"
The scandal of Gu Qinlian seducing Ji Yinli had already been witnessed by everyone, and the reputation of both of them had been ruined. If Ji Yinli regretted the engagement at this time, the entire Ji family would be mercilessly criticized. Ji Yinli would also be unable to take the imperial examination due to his moral problems.
Ji Yinli knew very well that his mother's warning was not groundless, and he felt even more bitter inside.
How could he be so stupid that he lost his mind after being manipulated by Gu Qinlian?
Thinking about how his reputation was tarnished because of Gu Qinlian, Ji Yinli's anger became even more difficult to suppress.
Previously, he was so fascinated by Gu Qinlian that he did not think it through. Now that he has calmed down, he began to re-examine his past with Gu Qinlian.
The more he thought about it, the gloomier Ji Yinli's expression became.
Gu Qinlian, this woman, behaved unruly and dared to be frivolous, so privately...
Oh my God, what kind of true face does the woman who is about to become his wife hide?
Ji Yinli could not accept this, and became increasingly upset, feeling that his entire life had been tarnished.
But Gu Qinlian was immersed in self-satisfied joy.
After solving the thorny problem of a concubine's pregnancy, she openly publicized the secret of her rebirth. Now, Song was obedient to her, and even her dowry increased a lot. Although it was not as good as in the previous life, it was no longer shabby.
She firmly believes that everything will go well for her in the future.
As long as she steps into the Ji family's door, all the glory will belong to her.
After learning about their reactions, Gu Qinlan became full of curiosity and anticipation about their married life.
In the blink of an eye, the day of Gu Qinlian's wedding arrived.
As Gu Qinlian's eldest sister, Gu Qinlan naturally had to go home to buy dowry for her wedding.
As Fu Yu was packing her dowry, she complained: "Instead of adding to her dowry, it would be better to exchange these things for steamed buns and buns to feed the stray dogs! At least feeding them to the dogs will make them wag their tails to show their goodwill!"
Hongye also echoed: "Who said it wasn't?"
The cost of adding dowry would cost at least several hundred taels of silver, which is really painful.
Gu Qinlan also felt heartbroken.
In her previous life, her dowry was only worth a thousand taels, but when Gu Qinlian got married, she gritted her teeth and took out a hundred taels to add to her dowry. As a result, she was ridiculed by Song and Gu Qinlian for a long time. Madam Ji also blamed her in her conversation, thinking that she used her dowry to subsidize her family and made her suffer a lot.
In this life, everything will be different.
