Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Back at the county government office, Lin Lingyuan looked slightly dejected. His wife, Yan Xi, greeted him, but he was all alone.

Seeing no guests behind him, he chuckled and asked, "No one's here?"

She told him to take it slow, but he wouldn't believe her, thinking that she was just an ordinary person and couldn't refuse him.

Lin Lingyuan glanced at Yan Xi sideways, but did not answer her question. He simply picked up the teacup in front of him and downed it in one gulp.

"That child is quite opinionated, but his vision is a bit short-sighted."

He pointed to the backyard of the county government office: "Isn't this place better than her home? Besides, I can tell her some things about the imperial court."

She didn't know what she was rejecting.

Yan Xi did not try to persuade her, but only said with a sigh, "The Empress's nephew has no shortage of prospects."

In her view, Her Majesty the Queen, who was already half a saint, would eventually become a saint.

How could a child favored by a sage lack a bright future?

"Nephew?" How come he didn't know?

"Yes, Aunt Plum Blossom said that Her Majesty the Empress has just recognized her." Ignoring his surprise, Yanxi continued, "I heard that her goldfish pouch and goldfish charm are being made in the palace."

Lin Lingyuan: "..."

He was merely carrying a bronze fish-shaped tally.

"How did you know?" Plum Blossom only told him to take good care of the child, but she didn't say that he was the Empress's nephew.

Yan Xi raised an eyebrow but did not answer. Instead, she gazed intently at the sky outside the courtyard, where a crack seemed about to tear open.

"Aqi, your sister July had a big fight with her parents." Gu Lan thought to herself, the rift was there, and it wouldn't be easy to mend it.

Besides, Gu Dajiang and Shen Yun don't seem like the kind of people who can endure hardship and bide their time.

Gu Qi returned home. Her mother, Li Ling, needed to rest, so she lay on a recliner, thinking about the analysis that Aunt Feng had given her.

Her son, Aqi, has a very bright future.

Her Majesty the Empress is like a saint.

She began to hum a song slowly, and Gu Qi, listening to the song, ran to Gu Lan's house across the street.

The two sat on deck chairs in the yard, and Gu Qi listened to Gu Lan talk about what happened at her home yesterday.

"Serves her right." Gu Qi was loved by her mother and father since she was a child, and her maternal grandparents also treated her like a treasure. She still kept the silver lock, and even the best milk in the house was always given to her.

This fostered her egocentricity.

That's the behavior of a little rascal when it comes to people you don't like.

Gu Qi chuckled and said to Gu Lan, "Sister Lan, you predicted this all along, didn't you?"

She remembered that Gu Lan had specifically told her sisters that girls should have money and that they couldn't rely on their parents and had to rely on themselves.

Gu Lan smiled knowingly at Gu Qi: "Weren't you hungry? Eat."

She moved the pastries in front of her over.

Gu Qi chuckled twice and whispered in Gu Lan's ear, "Sister Lan, I'm about to become the most powerful person in the county."

Grandma Feng said that her goldfish charm was the most powerful in the county, even more powerful than the county magistrate.

She patted her chest confidently and said, "I'll take care of you from now on."

Gu Lan: "Okay, you follow my lead, and I'll give you some money."

The two talked for a while before Gu Qi went home. Gu Lan saw her off at the door, and Xu Qingfeng, holding a book, happened to pass by the door.

"Brother Xu, here's your brush." ​​Gu Lan's younger brother, Shi Tou, also ran out from around the corner, holding Xu Qingfeng's calligraphy brush in his hand.

Gu Lan thought to herself, "The two of them are like brothers."

After thanking Gu Lan, Xu Qingfeng nodded and left, while Shi Tou held his breath and refused to speak to Gu Lan.

He never imagined that his sister would try to steal his opportunity to attend the private school, even though his father had promised to send him there.

But in the end, it was her older sister, who was ineligible for the imperial examinations, who went.

Shi Tou had said that he would teach his sister to read when he returned from the private school, but Gu Lan disagreed, saying that she would go and teach him when she returned.

He doesn't want her to teach him.

He snorted at Gu Lan's figure, then ran into the yard and back into the house.

Gu Lan only thought he was adorably silly, and when he hummed, it sounded like he was being coquettish. She shook her head, her heart unmoved.

Because she can decide his life.

Gu Lan turned back, and a voice came from behind her: "Why did you insist on going to the private school instead of letting Shi Tou go?"

"Shi Tou has talent; I think he'll pass the imperial examination at the lowest level."

The title of Xiucai (秀才) already represented a different social class, the most coveted goal for those studying in private schools.

Xu Qingfeng was dressed in a gray linen outfit, but he had a handsome face and a slender figure, making him a small but interesting sight in Gujia Village.

Many adults admired his academic ability, and Master Gu also said that he would have no problem passing the imperial examination before the age of thirty.

Xu Qingfeng refused all of them, his gaze fixed stubbornly on Gu Lan.

Gu Lan turned around, looked him down at him, and nodded: "Oh, then you should give the opportunity to Shi Tou."

To expect someone to give up their own interests in a single sentence is wishful thinking.

Xu Qingfeng was furious. It wasn't easy for him to study, and besides, Shi Tou wasn't his younger brother.

"Is Stone not my brother, but your brother?"

"He's my brother, why are you meddling in my business?" Gu Lan retorted, rolled her eyes at him, and stepped over the threshold of her house.

Xu Qingfeng: He meant well!

He turned and went home, just like before. His mother, Liu Cao, watched the two part on bad terms and couldn't help but feel sorry for them.

They couldn't resist their greed.

Gu Lan is a good daughter-in-law, a consensus shared by all the heads of Gu Family Village and the surrounding villages.

If someone is smart and can make money, even if they have a lot of work to do, they can understand.

Liu Cao wondered how her family could have been chosen by Chunniang and her husband from among so many families.

Li Ling's second sister-in-law was also wondering how she could be favored by her sister-in-law among her eldest sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, and eldest sister-in-law.

Li Ling took Aqi back to her parents' home, carrying a generous gift that represented her feelings: three catties of pork belly, two fish, two packages of pastries, and two catties of flour.

When Li Ersao received the gift, she felt her heart tremble. Her sister-in-law was so generous.

No wonder she could send her child to a private school just by glancing at Gu Qi.

Just as she received the gift, Li's eldest sister-in-law and Li's third sister-in-law arrived, pulling Li Ling aside and saying nice things to her. They had never treated Li's second sister-in-law like that before.

"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, let's go in."

Li Ling had nothing in her hands, so she held onto her daughter tightly, afraid that the person might run away at any moment.

"You can only go out to play after you see Grandma," she whispered to her daughter.

Gu Qi sniffed and nodded; she understood.

Before long, Sun San Niang was also called back, and the mother and daughter were able to talk. Gu Qi and her grandmother spent some time together.

I just didn't see my great-grandmother and great-grandfather.

Sun Sanniang watched Gu Qi looking for someone and thought the child was clever and filial. She explained to her, "Your maternal grandfather took your great-grandmother and great-grandfather to the next village to see your maternal uncle."

We must see each other one last time; it's the last time.

Gu Qi nodded after sorting out the news that her maternal grandfather had gone to see his uncle.

She turned to Li Ling and asked, "Mom, can I go play now?" She was going to school tomorrow.

Li Ling waved her hand, telling her not to run far. She wasn't worried about her daughter at all, because someone was watching over her.

As soon as Gu Qi ran out, a peddler followed her.

The peddler stopped when Gu Qi reached her aunt's house.

Gu Qi waved to the person and ran off to play.

The sun sets in the west and rises in the east, day after day.

Luo Sheng returned to the capital ten days later.

She first went to see her emperor husband, whose headache had returned and who was still in bed. She comforted him for a while, and then mentioned that she had recognized a nephew.

After leaving Taiji Palace, she went directly to the Imperial Clan Court, carrying the imperial edict she had personally written.

The royal family has gained one more person.

Seeing that Zong Zhengqing was dissatisfied but dared not refute her, Luo Sheng thought: Once you are no longer a member of the royal family, you will have no objections.

The next day, she summoned her mother and told her about her ideals.

In the afternoon, the goldfish talisman was delivered by the Imperial Clan Court, and Luo Sheng immediately sent someone to deliver it to Xing County, along with her imperial decree.

When Gu Qi got home from school, she saw a man with a bruised and swollen face causing trouble in her house.

Gu Dajiang was beaten up yesterday, and his face was bruised and swollen.

He suspected that it was Gu Sanhe, who had returned yesterday, who made the call.

Here we are, demanding an explanation.
