Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Seeing that her daughter was unharmed, Mrs. Chen, who had just come out from the inner room to check on the child, was speechless.

The servants inside the room: "..."

The guards, including Zhao Dahe, standing outside the door, were speechless.

Everything seemed to be paused, with only Zhao Yifeng's hearty laughter and Zhao Qi's groans echoing in the space.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Madam Chen quickly recovered from her initial shock and began to smooth things over.

"I'm so happy I'm practically crazy."

She attributed her son-in-law's behavior to being too happy and speaking without thinking.

Zhao Yifeng paused for a moment, then, remembering something, turned back and continued to talk to his good boy with a smile.

Mrs. Chen: "..."

She took a deep breath, avoiding looking at her son-in-law, and instead winked at Meihua, signaling her to warn the servants not to divulge what they had said today.

Madam Chen only remembered to warn the people inside the house, forgetting that her son-in-law had a loud voice, and the guards outside could also hear it.

Mingqi only played for a short while before she got hungry.

Madam Chen asked Meihua to take the children to dinner.

Zhao Yifeng watched Zhao Qi leave with reluctance until his figure disappeared from sight, then he turned and went into the inner room.

Wen Zheng had already fallen asleep.

He instructed his servants to take good care of his wife and children, and then immediately rushed to the yamen (government office).

At 1:15 PM.

When Wen Zheng woke up, her eyes first fell on her mother who was watching over her. Madam Chen noticed her gaze and immediately looked back.

She hurriedly handed her daughter a glass of warm water.

"Where's the child?" After clearing his throat, Wen Zheng looked around but couldn't find the child.

While instructing Meihua to have the kitchen prepare some noodles, Madam Chen replied, "She's asleep. Don't worry, she's fine. I'll have someone bring her over right away so you can see her."

Wen Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that everything was fine.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Zhao Qi was brought before Wen Zheng. The child was fast asleep. Upon seeing this, Madam Chen said softly, "This child will grow up to be more handsome than you and your son-in-law."

Wen Zheng: "It really is beautiful."

Her eyebrows and eyes resemble Zhao Yifeng's, but the child's face shape, nose, and lips are all like hers.

She had a straight nose and a dignified, upright face that was most admired by the world. Zhao Yifeng had prominent brow ridges and eyes as black as lacquer. The child inherited the best features of the two of them.

"My good child," Wen Zheng said with a beaming smile.

Mrs. Chen trembled at the mention of the child, fearing she would hear the same words as her son-in-law. Fortunately, her daughter was a sensible person.

Zhao Qi just woke up. She waved her clenched fist and stretched it towards the direction of the sound, as if she were greeting someone.

Wen Zheng gently took her small hand in his.

With a blissful smile on her face, she uttered, "My good child, Mom, my first child, come and see."

Mrs. Chen: "..."

Don't worry too soon!

Plum Blossom, who just returned: "..."

I walked to a corner with my head down, pretending I didn't exist.

Madam Chen subconsciously looked out the curtain and then secretly listened to the sounds outside the window.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she found no one was around.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

She really wanted to tap her daughter's head with her finger and say, "Since you remember me, you should also remember your other three children."

"Ayan, Yue, Huan, which one of them isn't your own?" Madam Chen called out the names of her three children loudly, hoping her daughter would listen.

Stop talking nonsense.

Wen Zheng remembered it too, but Zhao Qi kept shouting "Ah ah" and reached for her hand.

She smiled and talked to the child again, as if the two of them were still intimate when the child was still in her womb.

Seeing this, Madam Chen became worried.

For the other three children.

But her daughter was her daughter, and she had just given birth to her daughter. She couldn't let her daughter have too many thoughts during her postpartum period.

She hid her complicated worries in her heart and revealed a loving smile.

Zhao Yifeng's smile never stopped.

From the moment I entered the government office, the first thing I said to anyone I recognized was: "I gave birth to a daughter, a really, really good daughter."

Chief Secretary Ning: "..."

It's not like it was just born, so how come it's so incredibly healthy?

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Congratulations, Your Excellency, on the birth of your beautiful daughter."

Zhao Yifeng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face. He reached out and patted Ning Changshi's shoulder three times before speaking: "No need to be envious."

Chief Secretary Ning: "..."

He has a daughter, he's not envious!

Then I saw the magistrate talking to each person about his newborn child.

He thought things would return to normal after today's celebration, but to his surprise, the smile on the magistrate's face never left the second or third day.

Even a stranger would know that this person is overjoyed because of the birth of their child.

The governor's mansion was filled with joy, but the Gu family, the Marquis of Yiyong, who was in the capital, looked worried.

Gu Sanlang, Gu Pingsheng, hurriedly returned to the capital. After resting for a day, he went to the palace to pay his respects to the emperor, who showed him concern and gave him the position of secretary.

He mistook the emperor's performance for genuine sincerity.

So he forgot Zhao Yifeng's reminder and went to deliver a gift to Li Erniu in the palace.

Life went on like this. Everything in the capital was different from what he had experienced in Huaizhou. Huaizhou was unrestrained, while the capital was both oppressive and expansive.

Gu Pingsheng is trying hard to adapt, but while he wants a peaceful life, some people don't want the Gu family to hold power.

The people around the emperor kept saying one thing and the other said another, and the emperor's suspicions immediately arose.

The Gu family had relatives by marriage and old friends. With some people reminding them, the Gu family could only anxiously try to dispel the emperor's suspicions.

And so, Gu Pingsheng got engaged.

His in-laws were merchants who saved the old lady of the Gu family while she was burning incense.

So, to repay her savior, the matriarch of the Gu family acted as matchmaker and married the man's daughter.

In no time, the Gu family's reputation for gratitude spread far and wide.

The emperor personally inquired about the matter, finding it hard to believe that a young nobleman, a junior general who had already distinguished himself on the battlefield, would actually marry a merchant's daughter.

After being summoned, Gu Pingsheng showed no reluctance whatsoever.

He said that his father had taught him to repay even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude, and that his father had guarded the frontier to repay the Emperor's great kindness. As his father's son, he should learn from this.

The emperor, whose mind was full of scheming and plotting, also recalled many of his youthful days. He told Gu Pingsheng about the interesting things he and Gu Liang did when they were young.

Gu Pingsheng possessed the clear innocence unique to young people, which immediately caught the emperor's eye.

The emperor was pleased.

The Gu family's suspicions were temporarily put aside in the high-rise building.

The turmoil in the capital has temporarily subsided, hidden in the ever-present winds, awaiting the next moment when the emperor's suspicions will arise.

"Madam, General Gu sent me a letter saying that His Majesty ultimately trusts him and did not listen to the slander of treacherous officials." Zhao Yifeng held the letter in his hand, delivering the good news.

There wasn't a trace of a smile on his face.
