Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.

Yun Shengsheng agreed to let Chai Lie leave behind a group of old men and women, and it was obvious that Chai Lie became even more loyal and capable.

Princess Yongjia was still a little unhappy with him, so Yun Shengsheng explained.

"These people are his family."

"Princess, think about it. His family is all here. Doesn't he feel a greater sense of belonging?"

"We will treat this place as our home and protect it well!"

Princess Yongjia pouted, "Alright, alright, I'll listen to you!"

Fortunately, Chai Lie wasn't a fool.

They ended up hiring another twenty-odd capable young men and women.

Otherwise, Yun Shengsheng really needs to reconsider whether she has chosen the wrong person.

On the day Jinquan Villa opened, Yun Shengsheng led Princess Yongjia and the daughters of military generals to soak in the hot springs.

Soon, the resort's reputation spread.

Many people come here because of its reputation.

Now, Yun Shengsheng and the others go to the villa whenever they have free time.

Before we knew it, the end of the year was here.

The Yun residence, the Zhen residence, the Wenren residence, and the residence where Yan Shijin was temporarily staying were all decorated with red lanterns and new couplets.

The sound of firecrackers going off incessantly outside the gate, making several streets lively.

Apart from Yun Pianpian and Zhen Linqing staying at their own residence to have New Year's Eve dinner with the Zhen family, everyone else gathered at the Yun residence.

Gan Yuwan prepared a total of twenty large tables for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Chicken, duck, fish, mutton, beef—all kinds of meat are available.

Everyone ate with gusto, praising Gan Yuwan's excellent cooking skills.

Gan Yuwan smiled so hard her eyes crinkled, and then led people to prepare snacks and fruits for the New Year's Eve vigil.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, a group of people gathered together to stay up all night.

Gan Yuwan said with a smile, "We have many rooms in our mansion. If you are tired tonight, please stay here. Don't be shy with your aunt."

Princess Yongjia was the first to raise her hand, grinning as she said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I definitely won't stand on ceremony! Tonight, I'm going to share a bed with Sheng Sheng!"

Shang Jingjing joined in the fun: "Yeah, I'll share a room with them too!"

Wang Miaomiao quickly stretched out her arm: "Me too!"

Yun Shengsheng wailed, "If the three of you squeeze into one bed with me, won't you crush me into a meat pie?"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Yan Shijin, holding a cup of tea, smiled and said, "My residence is right next door. If there's not enough room, you can come to my place."

Huang Ziyang, Xiao Yunqi, Zheng Chuntang, and the others immediately crowded around him, looking at him expectantly: "Your Highness, can we come together?"

A while ago, Yun Qiaoqiao got married, but they happened to be on duty on the city wall and couldn't leave their posts.

I finally got a break during the Lunar New Year holiday, so I rushed over to join everyone in the festivities.

The problem is, they have nowhere to stay at night.

They didn't want to ride back to the camp in the middle of the night, where they might freeze solid on the way.

Yan Shijin nodded: "Okay, let Li Xin make the arrangements for you."

Li Xin smiled and bowed to the side: "If any of you gentlemen are tired, please let this servant know."

"This servant will arrange accommodations for everyone immediately."

Everyone smiled knowingly and continued chatting and staying up late around the charcoal fire.

Princess Yongjia and the monk Jingjing huddled next to Yun Shengsheng and pointed to Wenren Jue, who was fawning over Yun Qiaoqiao not far away.

Princess Yongjia said sourly, "Shengsheng, your fourth sister is so lucky. I feel like she married the most handsome man in the world."

Shang Jingjing nodded.

"Yes, yes, how can your fourth brother-in-law be so handsome?"

Yun Shengsheng also secretly glanced at Wenren Jue and nodded.

"I think so too, it really is very beautiful."

"But he's already my fourth sister's husband. You should probably look at him less."

Princess Yongjia and Monk Jingjing chuckled, but still insisted on looking over.

"But your fourth brother-in-law is really good to your fourth sister."

"Your fourth sister's husband practically follows her everywhere. He's as if he's afraid she'll bump into something or get hurt."

Yun Shengsheng, with a pastry in her mouth, stammered.

"Of course, my fourth sister is seven months pregnant, her husband must be very nervous."

[Judging by the dates, my fourth sister is due to give birth in March after the New Year.]

However, Fourth Sister is in good health and has been nourishing herself with spiritual spring water recently, so she should have no problem giving birth smoothly.

After hearing Yun Shengsheng's words, Yun Huaikang, Gan Yuwan and the others felt even more at ease.

Princess Yongjia suddenly smiled and said, "Shengsheng, you're seven years old now! I'm ten!"

Yun Shengsheng nodded with a smile: "Yes, time really flies!"

After the Lantern Festival, the festive atmosphere had not yet dissipated, and a few belated firecrackers still echoed in the streets. People had no choice but to pack their belongings and prepare to return to the capital.

After discussion, it was decided that Yan Shijin, Princess Yongjia, and Shang Jingjing would all have to return.

Meanwhile, Yun Xiaoxiao was going back to Hucheng Prefecture to reunite with Fan Sibo.

Yun Ziyan is going back to the capital to continue his studies.

The others, such as Yun Huaikang, Gan Yuwan, Yun Pianpian, and Yun Shengsheng, stayed.

Yun Huaikang mainly needs to continue working with Sun Chang to promote the Mingyuan Tea project. This is official business and a major matter, so he can't easily leave.

Yun Pianpian and Zhen Linqing were newlyweds, deeply in love, and reluctant to part.

Gan Yuwan was determined to wait until her fourth daughter, Yun Qiaoqiao, had given birth and finished her postpartum confinement before making any decisions.

Yun Shengsheng simply wanted to witness the birth of her nephew with her own eyes.

All told, she had prepared plenty of spiritual spring water and pregnancy-stabilizing medicine in her space, just waiting to welcome the little one.

Yan Shijin, Princess Yongjia and their entourage were a grand procession of several hundred people, with horses and carriages lined up in a long row.

The gold, silver, jewels, silks, and satins that the Great Yan Kingdom compensated them with filled countless carts, followed by thousands of warhorses, all of which had to be escorted back to the capital and stored in the treasury.

On the day of her departure, Shang Jingjing, Princess Yongjia, Wang Miaomiao, and Yu Meishu surrounded Yun Shengsheng, their eyes filled with reluctance.

Princess Yongjia said, "Time flies so fast. I haven't had much fun yet, and I have to go back."

"Sheng Sheng, are you really not coming with us?"

"Although your family is all here, if you come back with me, you will stay at the Princess's residence."

"I'll take care of you!"

"Let the kitchen cook you delicious meals every day, and we'll sleep in the same bed every night."

Shang Jingjing nodded, looking at Yun Shengsheng expectantly: "That's right, Shengsheng. If you go back, you can stay at the Duke's Mansion."

"Our mother misses you too, and is waiting for you to come back."

"Yes, yes, Mother also said she made you new clothes!" Yu Meishu nodded.

Wang Miaomiao held Yun Shengsheng's hand without saying anything, but echoed her sentiments, wanting Yun Shengsheng to go back with them.

Several girls chattered amongst themselves, completely surrounding Yun Shengsheng.

In the end, Liu Yixun and Shang Jinglun couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to pull their younger sisters apart.

Liu Yixun smiled and ruffled Yun Shengsheng's hair: "Shengsheng, take good care of yourself here."

"Come visit the Princess's residence whenever you return to the capital."

Shang Jinglun also said gently, "Yes, come find us when you get back to Shangjing."

Yun Shengsheng nodded with a smile and waved to them, "Yes, I'll definitely go play with my older brothers and sisters when I get back."

"Take care on your journey, and remember to write to me when you reach the capital!"

After everyone boarded the carriage one by one, Yan Shijin walked up to Yun Shengsheng.

He slipped a long, narrow wooden box into her hand; it was rather heavy.

Yun Shengsheng was curious and reached out to open it, but Yan Shijin quickly reached out and pressed down on the back of her hand.

His palms were cool and had thin calluses.

"I'll look at it when I get back..."
