Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

"An'an? What's wrong?"

Cheng Qiqi walked quickly towards the outside of the courtyard. The little girl had a fever last night. Could she be feeling unwell again today?

"Mother, it's not me who's crying, it's my sister!"

Jin Sui'an skipped over and asked, "Mom, can you make chive pancakes for my little sister?"

"Candy?"

The moment Cheng Qiqi looked at Tangtang, she blurted out, "Why have you lost weight again?"

Tangtang had eaten a few meals at home before, and her mother felt that the little girl's face had gotten a bit chubby. But today, she looks even thinner!

"Seven Seven".

Chu Zheng quickly stepped forward and said, "Qiqi, could you please take my Tangtang in for a few days?"

"no problem."

Without hesitation, Cheng Qiqi replied, "Sister Zhengzheng, is there something you need?"

"right."

Chu Zheng frowned. After finding out the maid who harmed Tangtang, Chu Zheng did not expect that her mother-in-law and brother-in-law's family would come.

Tangtang had another attack of her illness after seeing her mother-in-law!

I vomit everything I eat.

These days, Chu Zheng had wanted to visit Cheng Qiqi or bring her to visit An'an, but with his mother-in-law and brother-in-law's family there, Chu Zheng was always protecting Tangtang, afraid that something might happen to his daughter.

On the second day, Chu Zheng found an excuse to leave Tangtang here for a while so she could settle accounts with her mother-in-law!

"Tangtang, come on, have some cake."

Jin Sui'an carried the crying Tangtang into the house, took out the pastries that she had hidden away and couldn't bear to eat, and shared them with Tangtang.

"What's wrong, Tangtang? Why are you crying so hard?"

Seeing Tangtang crying, Cheng Qiqi thought of An'an who was sick and was worried about Tangtang.

"She was... hungry."

Chu Zheng pulled Cheng Qiqi aside and said apologetically, "I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, but after we went back, Tangtang was much better than before and could eat quite a lot. But... as soon as my mother-in-law's family came, Tangtang fell ill again."

"I haven't eaten anything for the past two days."

Chu Zheng's words made Cheng Qiqi no longer hesitate. She said something to Zhuang Lizheng and the others, and immediately went to the kitchen to make chive pancakes.

"Qiqi, go ahead and get busy. We'll get on with the workshop expansion today."

Zhuang Li was extremely concerned about making money and was planning how to expand the business. He immediately went to the sugar mill.

"There's a piece of wasteland nearby, which is perfect for building."

The sounds of Granny Leng and the villagers discussing things gradually faded into the distance.

Cheng Qiqi quickly fried the chive pancakes. Seeing Tangtang and Jin Sui'an sitting side by side eating them with great relish, Chu Zheng was so excited that tears almost fell from his eyes.

"Qiqi, thank you so much. I really don't know what I would have done without you!"

Chu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. She held Cheng Qiqi's hand tightly and said, "As long as Tangtang stays here for seven days, no, five days at most, that's fine."

"I'm fine with that. You've seen it yourself; it's certainly not as nice as your manor, but..."

Cheng Qiqi asked, "Can she manage without you?"

How could a four-year-old girl bear to leave her own mother?

"Yes, I'll have Aunt Liu stay with her. Don't worry, Tangtang is very well-behaved, and Aunt Liu can help with the chores."

Chu Zheng was afraid that Cheng Qiqi would disagree, so he said, "I will have food delivered to you every day."

"Sister Zhengzheng."

Upon hearing her words, Cheng Qiqi immediately interrupted, "Tangtang is An'an's little sister. It's alright for us to take care of her for a few days."

Chu Zheng was relieved when Cheng Qiqi agreed. She had learned about the Jin family from her grandfather, Su Ming. The Jin family valued loyalty and righteousness. In addition, based on her brief understanding of Cheng Qiqi, her intuition told her that Tangtang could live well here.

"Tangtang, stay here with An'an for a few days. Mom will come to pick you up in a few days."

Chu Zheng kissed his daughter's cheek, then hugged her and asked, "Does Tangtang want to?"

Tangtang nodded, returned Chu Zheng's kiss, and smiled faintly.

"Good boy/girl, Mom will come to pick you up in a few days."

No matter how reluctant Chu Zheng was to part with his daughter, he had to. If the issues with his mother-in-law and his brother-in-law's family weren't resolved, Tangtang would never have peace of mind...

"Aunt Chu, I will take good care of my sister."

Jin Sui'an is like a little adult.

Chu Zheng couldn't help but chuckle and said, "An'an is such a good older sister. I've prepared clothes and pretty hats for you."

As Chu Zheng spoke, he had people bring the things in.

"Qiqi, these are Tangtang's clothes and bedding. These two sets of clothes were specially made for An'an."

Chu Zheng took out two sets of clothes, a green shirt and a pink shirt, which looked the same as the ones Su Tang was wearing, except that they were made of cotton instead of fine silk.

Although it's made of cotton, the workmanship is excellent; you can tell it was made with care.

Cheng Qiqi patted Jin Sui'an's head and said with a smile, "Aren't you going to thank Aunt Chu?"

"Thank you, Aunt Chu!"

Jin Sui'an was overjoyed as she held the clothes.

"Wow, what a beautiful hat."

When Jin Suian saw the hat, he couldn't help but praise it. Unlike straw hats, this hat was made of cloth strips in various beautiful colors, making it look like a little flower hat.

The front of the hat also features a pretty little velvet flower, making it look absolutely gorgeous.

"This was specially picked out for you by Tangtang. Yours is pink with little velvet flowers, and Tangtang's is green."

Chu Zheng immediately spoke up. Since his daughter had liked them before, Chu Zheng immediately had two beautiful and exquisite little hats made.

When the two of them go out to play, they don't have to worry about getting sunburned.

"Thank you, Tangtang."

Jin Sui'an was overjoyed to receive the hat.

Chu Zheng left, but then sent over a cartload of things: meat, snacks, and freshly ripened milk dates—the bright green dates smelled delicious.

"Madam Cheng, my wife was afraid you wouldn't accept it, so she specially delivered it later. Thank you for taking care of Miss."

With a smile, Aunt Liu explained that during the famine, Chu Zheng saved her life. Alone and all alone, she stayed by Chu Zheng's side. Little Tangtang was also raised by Aunt Liu!

In Liu Ma's heart, Xiao Tangtang was just like her own granddaughter.

"I will take good care of Tangtang."

Cheng Qiqi did not refuse. Chu Zheng sent a lot of different things, but the quantities were not large, which was acceptable.

Cheng Qiqi took the two pounds of meat and two pounds of ribs and prepared to make some glutinous rice steamed ribs, which the children love. She didn't waste the remaining pork either; she chopped some up and minced it to make meatloaf soup!

Tangtang is too thin.

For dinner, Liu Ma ate with the Jin family. Liu Ma and Tangtang brought their own food and meat, so the Jin family naturally didn't mind.

Aunt Liu was initially worried that her status might not be good once she arrived, but who knew that the Jin family members were quite easy to get along with?

The former mistress of the Marquis's mansion was gentle and polite.

Needless to say, Cheng Qiqi looks just like the girl next door.

Chuntao volunteered to sleep with Aunt Liu: "Aunt Liu, how about we squeeze in together tonight?"
