After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her

Only after getting on the carriage did Cheng Songan find his voice again and said coldly to Cui Yuanqing: "You lied to me."

He never gave her freedom.

Cui Yuanqing was overwhelmed with unspeakable happiness. He didn't mind Cheng Songan's indifference at all. He hugged her excitedly: "I can't let you go, Yun Dai. We have a child."

Cheng Songan didn't say anything, she just put her hands on her flat belly. To her, this child was not only her child, but also her savior. But she didn't want the child to exist to save her. She should have been the child's support, but now, she might make it a criminal.

Cui Yuanqing's hand covered hers, trembling slightly. He kissed Cheng Songan's heart and comforted her, "Don't worry about anything. The Cheng family will be fine. Believe me."

The figure in the cave appeared in Cheng Songan's mind. He left his arms, raised his eyes and asked, "Can I see Si Tui?"

The smile on Cui Yuanqing's lips froze for a moment. He was still frightened by the last time when Situi was controlled by Xue Tingrong with drugs and wanted to kill Cheng Songan. He didn't want them to face each other again.

He replied: "Situi is not in the capital, what do you want from him?"

"Is it because of the Cheng family's business that you left Beijing?" Cheng Songan asked again calmly.

Cui Yuanqing was relieved: "I know you are worried about the grain, so let Taxue take the grain contract and go with him to transport the grain, so as to avoid any more trouble at night."

Cheng Songan was a little surprised and a little uneasy at the same time.

Cui Yuanqing always thinks one step ahead of others. He saw that Henan and Anhui had been dry for a long time, so it was not surprising that he asked for grain to be transported in advance. But didn't he instruct Si Tui to appear in the cave where weapons were made privately? If it was Cui Yuanqing's instruction, why didn't he tell her? If not...

Cui Yuanqing saw that she was distracted and became a little nervous. Since the miscarriage, he has become a frightened bird, worried about gains and losses. He asked tentatively: "Why do you want to see him? I have placed the real Wanxin in Chunhui Garden. My grandmother is taking care of her. The child is also there. Xue Tingrong, she..."

The meaning of what was not said was also very clear, Xue Tingrong posed no threat at all now.

Cheng Songan didn't care much about Xue Tingrong's life or death at this time. The most important thing at the moment was the future of the Cheng family. She was in a heavy mood. She lifted the curtain and looked outside, only to find that the carriage was heading to Cui's Mansion.

She frowned and said, "I want to go back to Fisherman and Woodcutter Villa."

Although she had prepared herself mentally, Cui Yuanqing's heart inevitably sank when she heard these words. She still refused to start over with him.

He had no choice but to explain: "All the houses and villas of the Cheng family have been sealed, including the Fisherman and Woodcutter Villa."

However, Cheng Songan's dowry maids were transferred to the Cui family in advance. Haitang and several mothers took care of Yongger and Wanxin in Chunhui Garden, Taxue, Aquan and Situi went to transport grain, Qiangwei was sent to the fourth grandmother in Changjie, and the rest were given monthly wages and indentures and released.

Cheng Songan's tears fell without warning. After going around in circles, she was back in the cage. She had never broken free from the shackles, and now she didn't even have a home.

Cui Yuanqing wiped her tears in panic, and his heart softened: "Don't cry, we won't go back to Cui Mansion, let's go to Gengdu Garden..."

Cheng Songan covered her face, leaned against the car wall, and slowly calmed herself down. She couldn't be too sad, as it would be bad for the baby in her belly. This child had saved her from jail, so she should take good care of herself for it.

The carriage turned around and stopped in front of the gate of Gengdu Garden. Cheng Songan was carried off the carriage. The setting sun was blood-red, very similar to the sunset on the day she was about to die in her previous life. She stared at the gate of Yuqiao Villa and was lost in thought for a while. In just ten days, everything had changed.

Rebirth allowed her to regain some things, but she also had to endure all the changes caused by her decisions.

"Looks like I don't have to jailbreak."

Xuanwu came out from behind a willow tree that two people were surrounding, and leaned against the trunk. His face was still as dejected as ever, without a trace of joy or anger.

Cheng Songan smiled at him faintly: "You really didn't leave?"

"I really haven't left," Xuanwu replied lazily, crossing his chest. "I signed a death contract. Maybe I have to wait until the eldest lady dies before I break the contract. It won't be too late to leave then."

Cui Yuanqing's brows knitted together like a mountain, he couldn't bear to hear the word death. But strangely, he never had any hostility towards Xuanwu.

Xuanwu narrowed his eyes: "Master Cui is unhappy?"

Without waiting for his response, he turned to Cheng Songan and said, "Then why don't you follow me, Miss?"

Cui Yuanqing didn't even have time to be angry, because he saw that Cheng Songan's expression had relaxed a little. If the Cheng family's affairs had not yet come to a conclusion, she would have left with Xuanwu.

He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Yundai, go back to the garden first. My mother-in-law and aunt left a letter for you."

Cheng Songan's hesitation soon subsided, and she said to Xuanwu, "Since you are not leaving, then you can stay with me in Gengdu Garden."

Xuanwu's dejected brows moved, and he bowed to Cui Yuanqing: "In that case, I'm sorry to bother you, Master Cui."

After saying that, he swaggered into the Gengdu Garden.

This was Cheng Songan’s first time visiting Gengdu Garden. It was slightly smaller than her Yuqiao Villa, and there were many lychees and green vines in the garden, densely packed and lush. She had the inexplicable illusion of returning to Yunxiang Pavilion.

Cui Yuanqing settled her down and turned to leave.

Cheng Songan called him: "What are you going to do?"

Cui Yuanqing hesitated for a moment, but finally answered her: "Xue Tingrong lives here. I will send someone to send her away."

No wonder he wanted to take her to Cui's house as soon as she got out of the prison. Cheng Songan couldn't be cold to him anymore. He had already considered a lot for himself. If Wanxin and Yong'er were sent back to Cui's house, Xue Tingrong would definitely not be able to stay there. Putting her there was almost the same as imprisonment.

Cheng Songan nodded and did not stop her. She did not want to live with a venomous snake that wanted to bite her to death from time to time.

In this way, he lived in Gengdu Garden for more than a month. During this period, the affairs of the Cheng family were a big deal in the court, but there was no conclusion. The Cheng family was neither punished nor rehabilitated. All the members of the Cheng family were imprisoned and no one was allowed to visit them.

Although Cheng Songan was not in the cell, the emperor did not allow her to contact any member of the Cheng family except Luo Luonu. She could only rely on a letter left to her by her mother and aunt before they died for comfort.

Old Madam Yu and Wanxin would visit her often, looking at and touching her like a treasure, and even asking the kitchen to cook meals that suit her taste. However, she was still as frail as ever because she was worried about the Cheng family.

Cui Yuanqing would rush back from the yamen every day to accompany her, watching her eat and sleep. If she didn't fall asleep, he would not sleep either. Before going to court every day, he would repeatedly instruct the maids assigned from Chunhui Garden on how to take care of Cheng Songan.

By the end of June, reports on the drought finally began to be submitted. Memorials flew into the cabinet like snowflakes. Cui Yuanqing could no longer guarantee to leave the office on time. Fortunately, Cheng Songan did not take it seriously and just sat there holding Luo Luonu in a daze.

Xuanwu appeared in front of her silently: "Suzaku has sent a letter."

For someone who looks like he's hoping the sky will fall and everyone will die together, his tone is surprisingly dull.

Cheng Songan was startled and looked up at him. The latter's eyes were heavy and he said, "I want to remind the young lady to drink the pregnancy-preserving medicine first."
