Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Gu Qi went into the room, holding two notebooks in her hand, and walked towards the girl.

He didn't speak to the girl first, but looked at her parents.

"I heard Uncle Yu is going to send Ya'er to school."

Gu Qi only needed to stand in front of Gu Yu, and his face was already flushed, exuding the pride of someone speaking to a nobleman.

There is also a slight sense of inferiority about oneself.

Gu Yu bowed and nodded, her mind a jumble: "Yes, yes."

"Princess, do you know Ya'er's name?" He looked up at her, as if gazing at distant clouds in the sky.

Ya'er's breathing also quickened, and she stared blankly at Gu Qi.

Gu Qi smiled gently and said, "I know. I heard she's a filial and intelligent girl."

Seeing Gu Qi's mature-sounding comments, Gu Lan almost laughed, even though she was younger than Gu Ya.

Gu Yu nodded quickly: "Ya'er is filial and intelligent."

Gu Qi then turned her attention to Gu Ya and handed her the two notebooks in her hand.

"These are my notes, I'm giving them to you. I hope you will study hard."

Tears welled in Gu Ya's eyes as she met Gu Qi's encouraging smile and took the gift with trembling hands.

He expressed his gratitude.

Gu Lan was taken aback, and a sentence popped into her mind.

"Who cares?"

"This little fish cares."

Gu Lan was proud of Gu Qi, but also reflected on her own actions, noticing that her younger sister had thought of things she hadn't considered.

Her sycophantic cousin obeyed her every word, and it seemed that she could speak up for her.

The village head, the clan elders, and other prominent figures from the surrounding area looked at Gu Yu with undisguised envy.

He wished he could push Gu Yu aside and step in himself to say a few words to the princess.

Gu Yu was also a clever person. Her heart was pounding, and she made up her mind to support her daughter.

Maintain contact with influential people.

Years later, Gu Yu, leaning on his cane, was still telling the younger generation in the village about his heroic deeds that day.

His one decision changed his family's social standing.

As darkness fell, the people surrounding the Gu family dispersed on their own.

Just as Gu Dajiang and his son Gu Qing were trying to squeeze through, they were met by tall and strong guards.

The gate was already closed, and the guard stared at the father and son with an expressionless face, as if to say, "Take another step, and it's time to draw your sword."

Gu Dajiang and Gu Qing: "..."

Gu Dajiang stopped in front of the guard and said he wanted to see his mother and show her his filial piety.

The guard simply drew his large sword from his waist.

Gu Dajiang and Gu Qing fled in disarray once again.

"They come every year, and I'm getting annoyed even if they don't," one of the guards said, slightly puzzled.

Why do something pointless when you can't even see it?

Another guard marveled at her privileged family background.

He reminded her, "This is a relative of the princess; who wouldn't want to acknowledge her?"

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it's a meteoric rise, as long as the princess agrees.

That's what the father and son were betting on.

It's just a matter of losing face once.

Gu Dajiang, who had been driven away, had a face as gloomy as a storm, but he instructed Gu Qing behind him: "Continue next year."

He didn't believe that Gu Qi really didn't care about her reputation at all.

Even giving them some money would be good.

Seeing his second and fourth brothers, whom he looked down upon, living good lives, Gu Dajiang was truly indignant.

It feels like my heart is being scratched, an itchy and uncomfortable feeling.

"Yes, Father."

Gu Qing felt the same resentment when he saw that his second and third sons, who were not as good as him, were doing better than him.

There was another person with the same lingering regret: Xu Qingfeng stood on the only way Gu Lan could take home.

He looked slightly dejected, his figure was thin, and he wore a blue robe. In daylight, he would have been a dignified gentleman.

But at night, Gu Lan only saw one person.

She returned late, and the moon was mostly obscured by clouds today.

The light shining on the ground was not obvious.

"Gu... Scholar." Xu Qingfeng had no intention of intimidating anyone, so he naturally spoke first.

Gu Lan recognized his voice. Even though they didn't interact much, she could only blame it on her occasional good memory.

"What are you doing standing at my door? Looking for a stone?" Gu Lan asked casually.

Xu Qingfeng seemed somewhat embarrassed: he had once shamelessly told Gu Lan to give up her opportunity to study.

But Gu Lan passed the imperial examination and became a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the lowest level of the imperial examinations) even before him.

"I'd like to ask if I... could I borrow your notes to take a look?"

Gu Lan pointed at the night sky with a troubled expression, then at him: "Is this how you come to ask me for advice?"

Xu Qingfeng's mind went blank for a moment. How could he subconsciously think that Gu Lan wouldn't reject him?

And yet, they ask for other people's hard work empty-handed.

"I..." Xu Qingfeng wanted to explain, but Gu Lan didn't give him the chance.

"Sis, I've been waiting for you to come back. Are you tired? I've prepared some warm bath water for you."

The newcomer was eleven years old, three years younger than Gu Lan, and his eyes and brows revealed a cleverness.

She has clean features and speaks considerately, making it extremely easy for her to gain people's favor.

Gu Lan patted her head and praised her, "Well done."

"hey-hey."

Gu Si smiled and moved her body to block the people behind her who wanted to compete with her for her cousin's affections.

As Gu Lan walked forward, Gu Si turned back and glared fiercely at Xu Qingfeng, telling him to get lost.

The blatant malice in her eyes made Xu Qingfeng's face turn ugly for a moment.

Since passing the imperial examination, he has only received praise, and no one has shown any obvious dislike for him.

Seeing that Gu Lan had already returned home, Xu Qingfeng clenched his fists and could only return home as well.

I pushed open the door and went inside; the room was lit by candlelight.

His mother, Liu Cao, was speaking gently to his half-sister and stepfather, and Xu Qingfeng's expression was complicated.

Using Gu Qi's identity, Gu Lan started her factory in a grand manner, and no one in Xing County made things difficult for her anyway.

After the factory is built, recruiting people is an essential step, and the people of Gujia Village have a natural advantage in this regard.

They all live nearby and are related to each other.

As for diligence, the village has no shortage of people who embody that word.

The rise of Gujia Village has made many people envious, and they all want to form marriage alliances with the people of Gujia Village.

So Liu Cao married into the family and had a daughter.

Xu Qingfeng knew his stepfather was a good person, and his sister was close to him, but he felt that if he integrated himself into the family, it would be like betraying his biological father.

But his mother treated him well too. Xu Qingfeng went back to his room, unable to understand.

The moon appeared and disappeared intermittently.

The rain didn't fall the next day; instead, colorful clouds appeared in the sky.

"An angel has arrived."

"His Majesty has decreed, Gu Qi, receive the decree."

Gu Qi came out of the house in a daze; she couldn't remember asking the Emperor for anything.
