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

Yun Shengsheng's face was full of bitterness. Fortunately, her parents weren't that heartless.

Yun Huaikang gave her a small silver flower ornament that could be pinned to her hair.

The silver sheet is very thin, and the patterns on the petals are fine and dense. When it is shaken in the sunlight, it will shimmer with a warm light.

Her mother gave her a pair of silver bracelets, with a circle of lotus scrolls carved on the surface and a small character "生" (life) engraved inside.

The eldest sister, Yun Xiaoxiao, gave her a pair of hand-embroidered shoes, with colorful butterflies fluttering on the surface, making them very exquisite.

My second sister, Yun Pianpian, gave me a cotton dress with a row of small carp embroidered on the hem, which was cute and lively.

Third Sister Yun Shuangshuang gave me two handkerchiefs, embroidered with green bamboo and small birds on a white silk background, the embroidery was delicate and elegant.

When the fourth sister, Yun Qiaoqiao, took out her gift, the whole family burst out laughing.

She pulled a small knife from behind her back. The handle was made of wood and polished quite smoothly, but the blade was handmade by her, slightly crooked, and the curve of the edge had an irregular, handcrafted feel, but the blade was polished so hard that it could reflect light.

She touched her nose a little embarrassedly, "What's the point of always drawing on the ground with twigs? With this, you can sharpen your own pencils and carve your own things, making them as sharp as you want. I've tried it, it's super fast at shaving radish."

After she finished speaking, she even made a slicing motion in the air. Old Li watched from the side and praised her repeatedly, saying, "This is really good."

Fifth Brother Yun Ziyan was holding a calligraphy brush in his hand.

Yun Shengsheng recognized the brush. A few days ago, Mr. Su Qing noticed that Yun Ziyan's calligraphy had improved significantly, so he specially rewarded him with a high-quality calligraphy brush. Yun Ziyan cherished it very much, and he never expected that it would be given to her at this time.

Zhao also handed over a bundle with a smile. Inside was a set of undergarments she had sewn herself. They were made of fine cotton, with neat and fine stitches, and fit her perfectly.

Zhen Linqing didn't miss out either; his most expensive item was a small goldfish hand-held piece, tiny yet heavy and quite cute.

Finally, Old Li took two more things out of his pocket and put them on the table.

"Here, someone asked me to bring this. Even though they couldn't come, they still sent a gift."

It was a pearl, round and bright, about the size of a little fingertip, its luster shimmering as it rested on the red velvet cloth.

"That kid gave it to me without saying a word, he just shoved it into my hand and said, 'Give it to her.' Just two words. Oh well, you know what kind of person he is."

He didn't name anyone specifically, but Yun Shengsheng knew it, and the others were smart enough not to ask.

The other one was even more direct: a red envelope containing ten taels of silver.

Old Li laughed heartily: "It was given by Butler Chen. He said he wasn't good at picking gifts, so I should just buy whatever I like!"

Yun Shengsheng was buried in the middle of the gifts.

She looked at this and touched that, her eyes crinkling with joy.

The family sat around the table, which was laden with delicious food, creating a lively atmosphere.

Zhen Linqing suddenly brought up the clinic next door, her face full of anger, "Because of what happened before, the clinic is going to be sold. Uncle Yun, do you want it? I'll sell it to you cheaply, fifty taels of silver!"

Yun Huaikang was stunned and hadn't reacted yet when Yun Shengsheng became excited.

"Buy, buy... Daddy buy..."

[Buy it! Buy it! You absolutely have to buy it! Such a great location, with all the shops connected together—it's such a great deal and so convenient!]

Upon hearing this, Yun Huaikang immediately nodded.

Gan Yuwan quickly went to get the money, as if afraid that Zhen Linqing would change his mind.

Zhen Linqing chuckled and accepted the money. "Okay, let's transfer the ownership tomorrow!"

After we finished eating, it got dark.

Zhen Linqing pulled Yun Pianpian aside and quickly slipped a small box into her palm.

"Pianpian, I'm leaving tomorrow. A letter has arrived from the manor, urging me to leave urgently; I can't delay any longer."

Yun Pianpian's fingers tightened slightly on the box.

"I'll definitely come back when I have time. You..." He paused, his Adam's apple bobbing, and finally said, "You must wait for me."

Yun Pianpian's lips moved, but before she could reply, Zhen Linqing suddenly grabbed her hand and squeezed it hard.

Then he suddenly let go, turned around, and ran away.

Yun Pianpian stood there, the warmth of his fingertips still lingering in her palm.

He looked down at the box, slowly walked back to his room, closed the door, sat on the edge of the bed, and then opened the box.

The contents of the box startled her.

A lustrous jade pendant lay on top, with a lotus flower carved on the front and the character "Qing" engraved on the back.

These are the characters she recently learned from her younger siblings.

There was a stack of silver notes under the jade pendant. She picked them up, unfolded them, and counted them one by one—two thousand taels.

She placed the silver notes on her lap, stared at them and the jade pendant for a long time, then slowly bent down and took something out from under her pillow.

It was a purse, made of satin, with dense stitches, and a small wooden bead attached to the closure.

She never dared to give it away.

The heir of the Ming Prince's mansion had seen so much gold and silver thread that it would be piled up higher than a mountain. What she had taken out was probably not even as good as the things of the maids in other people's mansions.

But now, looking at the silver notes and jade pendant in her hand, her heart suddenly trembled.

Is it... not impossible? Could she take a chance this time?

But then she sighed.

The words her younger sister had said earlier were like a bucket of cold water poured over her heart, which had just begun to warm up.

A great disaster is about to befall the Ming Prince's Palace.

Prince Ming will be beheaded, Zhen Linqing's legs will be broken, and his entire family will be confiscated and exiled.

She didn't know if Zhen Linqing's hurried return to the manor was because of this matter. She didn't dare to think about it too much.

Yun Shengsheng lived like a god for three days. She slept until she naturally woke up every day.

No one was teaching her to read or write, so she happily played with her little niece, Cuicui.

Like a real three-year-old child, happy and carefree.

That day, she and Cui Cui were playing with pebbles on the stone steps at the door when they suddenly heard several aunties chatting together at the entrance of the alley next door.

"Have you heard? What a disgrace!" An aunt in a blue cotton shirt slapped her thigh. Although she kept her voice low, she couldn't hide her excitement.

"Exactly, who would have thought?" Another auntie popped a handful of sunflower seeds into her mouth and cracked them open a couple of times. "The county magistrate's sister, she always seemed so quiet and gentle. Even though she's a widow, the county magistrate takes good care of her. She's a woman who never worries about food or drink, how could she do something like this?"

"That's right! I heard she's gotten involved with that registrar, and the two of them have been secretly seeing each other for at least a year or two. You know how good the county magistrate is to his registrar, treating him like one of his own, but he treats him like his brother-in-law, and he's keeping it a secret from him..."
