Since Li Anhe was named Princess, the Wang family has become quite lively. Her former confidants all came to visit her and reminisce about the past. Although no one knows how sincere she is, she has to think twice about the emperor who supports her. However, the other young lady of the Li family did not receive such good treatment.

Li Anrou looked at her sister who was sitting on the upper seat, her eyes unable to hide jealousy and hatred. "Sister, you have suffered so much these years. If the Queen Mother had not given you the white silk, you would have had a place in the harem."

"Sister, please be careful with your words. The emperor and I have always been brother and sister." Li Anhe said lightly.

"Aunt Li, I'm back." Pei Yi glanced at the noble lady sitting below him, unzipped his cloak, and ran to Li Anhe's side. Li Anhe bent down and picked her up. "You've had enough fun outside. Your uncle is not in good health, so let him take you out."

Xiao Yining: If she knew that the heroine's mother would come today, she would never go out no matter what.

She fell into Li Anhe's arms, rubbed her head and acted coquettishly, and glanced at her great aunt.

She is so ugly. She is obviously younger than grandma, but she looks much older than her. Even the clothes she wears don’t fit her, and she looks resentful.

Little Yining satisfied her curiosity, and pouted, "Grandma, I didn't go crazy, I accompanied my cousin to the farm."

Sweet potatoes have always been on Xiao Yining's mind, so she went over to take a look and also watched the villagers distribute year-end gifts to the farmers.

Li Anhe looked at the boy sitting in the wheelchair. People who knew him knew that he could walk without any problem, but he preferred to spend his days in a wheelchair. "Ayi, please don't spoil Qingjie too much."

“Aunt Li, I don’t spoil you.” Pei Yi held out his hand. “Come here, don’t disturb your grandma entertaining guests.”

"Grandma, I'm leaving." Little Yining obediently returned to his fellow villager.

"How rude." Li Anrou withdrew her gaze from Pei Yi's face and stared at Xiao Yining with hatred.

"Oh, how could a well-mannered sister raise a daughter like that? She doesn't even want to acknowledge her biological mother." Li Anhe said coldly, successfully cutting a hole in Li Anrou's heart.

"Sister, you don't have to laugh at me. If you reappear in front of others, even if your cousin protects you, everyone knows that you are no longer..." Li Anrou suddenly covered her throat in pain. "You, poisoned me."

Li Anhe was stunned at first, then covered his face with a handkerchief and sneered, "Sister really hasn't changed in many years. Now she's still trying to frame me with her little tricks."

"But, the emperor said that if it weren't for the queen mother's nostalgia, you wouldn't still be alive." She stood up and walked to Li Anrou, whispering in her ear, "You and the queen mother teamed up to poison him, and he still remembers it in his heart!"

Xiao Yining: I heard it. My ears are very good.

Pei Yi: I heard it too.

What a bursting melon.

The crowd who were always online couldn't help but leave the door so as not to affect Li Anhe's performance.

The incident ended with Li Anrou running out in terror and crawling away.

Pei Yi also slowly withdrew the mental force that was strangling his throat. "This Leng family is really full of crazy people."

"It's a fool." Xiao Yining corrected.

The emperor wants to murder her, he must be a fool. However, with such a mother, it seems normal that the heroine would be reincarnated into her daughter's body.

She tilted her head to look at her fellow villager. The way that man looked at him just now must have shown that he recognized him as a child from the Leng family.

Oh, there's something exciting to watch. I wonder who will win the fellow villager between Grandpa Pei and the Leng family.

"What are you looking at?" Pei Yi rubbed her little head.

"Oh, I just want to see my uncle more. I won't be able to see him anymore when I go back to my hometown for the New Year."

Pei Yi frowned and looked at her. "Didn't your cousin tell you that she wouldn't be coming back this year?"

Xiao Yining: ..., she's not going to reply? She even wrote a letter to say goodbye to her friends! It's over, if they find out that she's in Yanjing, will they say she's lying?

Pei Yi was speechless. This matter was not something shameful, but his cousin's wife actually kept it a secret.

Wanniang: There are so many things to do that I forgot.

Li Anrou was still shaking when she returned to the mansion. She thought her cousin would forgive her after punishing her, but she didn't expect that he still remembered it. Yes, if he had forgotten, he wouldn't have kept his aunt under house arrest.

She couldn't help but feel angry again. Why did he succeed to the throne? He was just one step away from success.

"How was your talk with your sister?" A feminine voice interrupted her thoughts.

Li Anrou looked back at her husband. Although he was over 40, he was still as handsome as ever. He was wearing a charming red dress. She wondered how many women outside were obsessed with him.

Too bad he's no longer a man.

Leng Qingnian's face flashed with disgust, and he asked softly, "Why don't you answer?"

Li Anrou lowered her eyes and said aggrievedly, "You also know that my sister has always been narrow-minded. She has always been jealous of me marrying you. I guess she won't help you to speak well of you in front of the emperor."

Leng Qingnian was disappointed but helpless. He had a lot of talent but could only waste his time at the sixth rank and had become a laughing stock in Yanjing.

"By the way, I found someone who looks like the missing Yi'er at my sister's house. Do you want to tell Uncle San?"

Leng Qingnian thought of his brother who favored his concubine over his wife, and nodded, "I'll tell him that Duke Chen will be returning to Yanjing soon, and I must give him an explanation."

"Yeah." Li Anrou watched her husband leave lovingly, then called the maid to deliver a letter to her daughter.

After all, it was her own flesh and blood, so she had to remind her to be wary of Li Anhe's family.

When Xiao Yining learned that she would not be going home for the New Year, she asked a fellow villager to write a letter to Sister Yan Ke. She loved beauty the most, so everyone gave her money and asked her to find an embroiderer to make costumes for the poetry gathering. Now she also wanted some.

"Miss, it's so cold today, let me send it to the doorman." Qiu Yi wanted to take the letter, but Xiao Yining shook her head to refuse.

Just kidding, her grandma's house is awesome, she wants to see if there are people stopping outside her house to watch. Now her house and her grandma's house can be said to be Internet celebrity places. It is said that many people brave the cold wind to see her beauty, and she wants to fulfill those people's curiosity.

Xiao Yining handed the letter to Old Man Zheng's son, and then hid behind the door to peek. The several gazes above her head satisfied her vanity a little.

"Miss, if you have had enough fun, go back!" Qiu Yi said as she looked at the uneasy people on the street. What's more, there was a beggar staring at them, and she was scared.

Lin Yuzan saw tears in his daughter's eyes behind the door. He had been tortured by illness and nearly died several times in Yanzhou before Lord Cui managed to develop a medicine to cure them.

Whenever he felt like he couldn't hold on any longer, it was the smiles of his daughter and wife that kept him going.

How could he not be excited to see the daughters he had been missing day and night? It was worth it that he had rushed back day and night just after recovering from his illness, fearing that they had already returned to their hometown and he would miss them.

Lin Yuzan calmed his pounding heart and strode home.

"Miss, the beggar who was staring at us is here." What Qiu Yi feared finally happened.

Little Yining looked at the beggar and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Zheng is here. Uncle Zheng will give him some silver."

The doorman, Uncle Zheng, had already prepared a few copper coins and stopped Lin Yuzan. "Come, I'll give you some money and you can leave."

Lin Yuzan: …

Just as he was about to open his mouth to scold, his eyes suddenly went dark, and the string that had been tense for many days finally broke.

"Hey, miss, don't go out!" Qiu Yi looked at Xiao Yining who was running out and couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.

Little Yining glanced at the copper coins in Uncle Zheng's hand and shook his head, "Uncle Zheng, we should give them steamed buns. People are starving to death."

When Lin Yuzan heard her daughter's voice, she opened her eyes as if she had regained consciousness. "Qing Jie'er, Daddy... is back."

Xiao Yining: ...

She looked down at the skinny man lying on the ground, and could vaguely see his father's appearance. Her heart paused, and regardless of the man's dirty smell, she rushed over and cried loudly, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Qingjie can't live without you!"

Lin Yuzan felt comforted when he heard his daughter crying. Fortunately, his daughter did not inherit her father-in-law's great strength, otherwise he would have died here.
