Reborn as a beautiful little lucky star

"My wife knows, I'll go right away..."

Yan Liqing agreed with a smile and followed Xiang Ming to Madam Xu's guest room.

"Let's go back to the house and rest."

Qin smiled as she watched her daughter-in-law go up the stairs, and she also told her family to go back to their rooms to rest: "We are about to arrive at Qingshui County. Get a good night's sleep tonight. We have to get up early tomorrow and follow the motorcade into the city."

“It’s finally here!”

When Liu thought of the suffering she had endured during exile, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"Cheer up tomorrow."

The old lady glanced at her clever little granddaughter and became more confident: "Whether I can successfully redeem myself depends on this one move."

"For our children."

Qin's eyes showed determination: "No matter what the cost, I must get rid of my slavery and restore my status as a good citizen."

"Uh-huh."

Liu stopped crying, clenched her fists, and nodded vigorously.

It was already midnight when Yan Qingqing came back from Madam Xu's room. Qin had coaxed her grandchildren to sleep, and she herself dozed off against the head of the bed.

The door of the guest room creaked slightly, and Yan Qingqing pushed the door open from outside in the faint moonlight.

"Why did we talk for so long?"

Qin rubbed her eyelids sleepily and opened her eyes.

"Mrs. Xu..."

Yan Liqing came to the bed and sighed deeply.

"What's the matter? What happened?"

Qin's heart skipped a beat and she had a bad feeling.

"The Lord of Black Dragon Fort received a letter via carrier pigeon, informing him that his wife had given birth to a legitimate son and that he was on his way here."

Yan Qingqing did not hide it: "Mrs. Xu thought about it over and over again, but she still couldn't make up her mind to divorce him. For the sake of her son, she still wanted to give him a chance and go back to Black Dragon Castle with him."

"Alas, this is all fate!"

Qin sighed sadly and waved her hands: "Forget it, it's other people's family affairs, it's not our turn to worry about it. Since she is so depressed and wants to go back, then let her go back. We have persuaded her and that's all I have to say. What happens in the future depends on God's will."

"Mrs. Xu was kind enough to give us a carriage."

As Yan Qingqing spoke, she took out a handwritten letter from Madam Xu and handed it to her mother-in-law: "I also wrote a letter to her sister, asking the county magistrate's wife to say something good for us so that we can get rid of our slavery smoothly."

“She’s a good person.”

Qin took the letter with mixed feelings: "It's a pity that good people don't have good fortunes. They meet the wrong person and their love life is bumpy."

Yan Liqing looked sad: "Mrs. Xu has done so much for us, but we can't help her at all. I feel bad..."

"Yeah."

Mu Xueyan woke up when her mother came in. She pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. When she heard this, she had an idea and suddenly opened her eyes.

"Sister Yan."

When Yan Qingqing saw her daughter wake up, she looked lovingly, bent down and picked her up.

"Yeah."

Mu Xueyan babbled in baby language, and a small white jade bottle the size of a thumb appeared out of thin air in the palm of her right hand.

"what is this?"

Yan Linqing saw the small white jade bottle in her daughter's hand, subconsciously took it and pulled out the cork.

A strong medicinal fragrance wafts into the air, making one feel refreshed.

“Is this a pill?”

Qin poured out a brown-red pill from the white jade bottle and secretly guessed what her granddaughter's intention was.

Yan Liqing asked tentatively: "Sister Yan wants us to give the pills to Madam Xu?"

"Uh-huh."

Mu Xueyan was delighted with her mother's intelligence and was secretly happy.

She is still young and not being able to speak has its advantages.

You don't have to worry about revealing the secret, and you can help out secretly.

The elixir is the Hundred Herb Pill, which can cure all kinds of poisons and save Mrs. Xu’s life at the critical moment.

Mrs. Xu was kind-hearted and gave them a carriage. The elixir was considered a return gift and did not count as a leak of secrets.

"Since Sister Yan asked you to give it to Madam Xu, go ahead."

Qin's divine assist: "To put it in a more mysterious way, just say that this is a magical pill given by a master, which can save your life at a critical moment."

correct answer!

You guessed it right!

Mu Xueyan gave her grandmother a big thumbs up in her heart and nodded continuously like a duckling pecking at rice.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Yan Linqing was filled with joy. She kissed her daughter lovingly, then left the guest room with the white jade bottle.

Mrs. Xu was worried about something and tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. She was a little surprised to see her daughter come back.

Yan Linqing repeated Qin's words word for word.

"Sister Yan, it's not that I'm stubborn, it's just that after so many years of relationship, I can't just let it go."

Mrs. Xu took the white jade bottle and couldn't help but tears in her eyes: "At this point, I don't want to say anything more. I just want to ask you for one thing..."

"You don't have to be polite, ma'am, but you can say it."

Yan Linqing shed a few tears with her and wiped her wet eyelids with a handkerchief.

"I know my sister is a capable person."

Madam Xu tightly grasped the white jade bottle, with mixed emotions: "If something happens to my sister one day, please save my son's life for the sake of our friendship today."

"Mrs. Xu, you misunderstood. This pill is not mine..."

Yan Linqing subconsciously wanted to explain, but hearing her sad words, she didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.

"Sister Yan, please."

When Mrs. Xu saw that she did not agree, she threw off the quilt and got out of bed, wanting to kneel down on the spot.

"Madam, what are you doing?"

Yan Liqing was shocked and quickly reached out to support her.

Madam Xu looked expectant: "Did sister agree?"

"Okay, I promise you."

Yan Linqing felt emboldened when she thought of her unfathomable daughter.

"Thank you sister."

Mrs. Xu got what she wanted and burst into laughter.

"When you go back, be careful and don't be impulsive..."

Yan Linqing was worried and started a new round of consolation.

"Uh-huh."

Mrs. Xu was grateful, and this time, she really took every word she said to heart.

The two met by chance and hit it off immediately. The more they talked, the more they got along. Time passed by minute by minute, and before they knew it, it was almost dawn.

"Da da da."

Just as the sky was getting light, the sound of hurried horse hooves could be heard in the town.

A fast horse came to the door of the inn and stopped suddenly. A strong and powerful man with thick eyebrows and big eyes jumped down from the horse.

The Lord of Black Dragon Fort traveled day and night, riding non-stop, and chased after him from Black Dragon Fort.

Seeing that he had to travel all night and his cheeks were chapped and red by the cold wind, Mrs. Xu finally softened her heart and could not bear to blame him anymore, so she agreed to go back with him.

After breakfast, the group from Black Dragon Castle left the inn in a mighty procession and returned in the direction they came from.

The town of Heixi is not far from Qingshui County and can be reached in half a day by horse carriage.

The old lady did not rush to leave. After seeing Mrs. Xu off, she found a clothing store in the town that had a full range of styles and bought new clothes for the whole family.

The family of eleven, young and old, bought everything from head to toe, inside and out, including hats, scarves, cotton coats, cloaks, and leather boots.
