The Time Traveling Anchor and Her Eight Hundred Fence-Sitters

Old Madam He left Quzhou with her two younger sisters.

One day earlier than originally scheduled.

Zhao Mianmian was not injured in the first place. He ate and slept along the way, and before he arrived in Beijing, even the mark on his forehead disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened.

As for the hair that was burned...

Qi Luo was deft and carefully cut off the outer circle of burnt hair for Zhao Mianmian, and made a small hair bun to wrap the real hair which was not abundant to begin with.

As long as you don't look closely, it's no different from before.

Zhao Mianmian was so happy that she felt like she had earned two big swords, and her smile never faltered all the way.

However, Zhao Mianmian did earn gold coins worth two large swords.

In addition to the wide-back Hetian jade bracelet given by Mrs. He, there was also an apology gift from Mrs. Ge before leaving.

The apology was placed in a palm-sized box. Zhao Mianmian was too lazy to even look at it. She pretended to weigh it and then handed it to Qi Qiu.

Seeing Zhao Mianmian like this, everyone in the Ge family couldn't help but feel nervous, wondering if someone had said something behind the three-year-old girl's back.

Instead, Qi Qiu and Qi Luo looked at each other, with a gleam of approval in their eyes.

The two of them secretly thought that although Sister Mian had no parents and was gentle in nature, they didn't expect that she was also a person with backbone, and they couldn't help but look up to her a little more.

But what everyone didn't know was that as soon as the box came into Zhao Mianmian's hands, a system prompt popped up on the public screen in front of her:

【Coins+】

The audience in the live broadcast room lamented her bad luck on the public screen:

[Tsk tsk, 10,000 gold coins! That's much more valuable than the gift for He Xulan. Host, why don't you open it and see what it is? ]

[Why bother opening it? I already have the things, and these ten thousand gold coins are not going to run away on their own.

What the anchor needs to do now is to hold on and not lose his own value. 】

[Hahaha, what kind of value does she have, with her short legs? ? ]

[That's not what I meant. The Ge family dared to use an iron chain to fool her. They were just bullying her because she had no parents, her last name was not He, and she was living under someone else's roof.

At the moment, the young man from the Ge family made the mistake first, and Madam He was serious about it, so the Ge family wanted to send gifts to apologize and ease the relationship between the two families.

But believe it or not, if the anchor opens the box in front of everyone, then old lady Ge will definitely take advantage of the situation and say some nonsense like "write it off!"

[Fuck, are you so shameless? ? In that case, host, you better behave yourself. ]

[Yes, yes, hold it. ]

Zhao Mianmian listened to the advice from the barrage, took the box without opening it, and just casually handed it to Qi Qiu's arms.

This made Mrs. Ge feel very uneasy, and she couldn't understand what the He family was thinking.

In the end, without even saying a word, he watched Madam He and her two sisters leave Quzhou.

The group stopped and walked along the way, and it took them another three days to return to the capital.

Several people entered the city through the South Gate.

Seeing the city gate from afar, Qi Qiu Qi Luo hurriedly woke up the two girls who were drowsy from being shaken by the carriage.

"Sister Lan, Sister Mian, we have arrived at Xuanyuan Gate."

A year ago, Zhao Mianmian went to Beijing with He An through the East City Gate, and she also went through the East City Gate the last time she went to Quzhou.

When he heard Qi Qiu say that they were going to enter the city from the Xuanyuan Gate in the south this time, he quickly got up, lifted the curtain and leaned over the car window to watch.

However, Xuanyuanmen didn't see it, but unexpectedly saw an old acquaintance.

Li Peiyan.

Li Peiyan was leaving the city to see someone off.

Zhao Mianmian didn't recognize the two people who were sending her off, so she turned around and asked He Xulan.

"Hey, Third Sister, those two are dressed very strangely. Why don't they look like people from the capital?"

After hearing what Zhao Mianmian said, He Xulan also took a look outside the car through the gap in the curtain.

She didn't recognize anything special about the two "strangely dressed" strangers, but Li Peiyan's bright face suddenly appeared in her field of vision, causing He Xulan to tighten her fingers and couldn't help but blushing.

"He looks unfamiliar. I'm afraid he's not visiting relatives in Beijing..."

"Oh~~~~Is that so! He's Li Peiyan's relative!!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mianmian said "Oh" and stretched out the last syllable to express that he suddenly realized something.

In fact, she was just expressing her emotion and didn't mean anything else.

But when Madam He heard the three words "Li Peiyan", she frowned in alertness.

Old Madam He lifted the curtain and glanced at Li Peiyan who was seeing the guests off, then turned around and gave He Xulan a meaningful look.

Finally, he added something else:

"Looking at his attire, he really looks like someone from the southwest."

“I heard that there are many small tribes in the southwest, with different habits. After they intermarried with Tianying, they brought along the bad things that were not presentable.

The area around Linglong City was in a state of chaos and even the rules left by our ancestors were no longer followed.

You should not learn it."

Madam He's words were cryptic, but He Xulan was a very perceptive person and could easily hear the deeper meaning in her words.

The He family girl lowered her eyes, concealing the throbbing in her heart, and sat back in her seat calmly.

Zhao Mianmian didn't notice the interaction between the grandfather and grandson.

She watched through the bamboo curtain with curiosity as Li Peiyan finished talking to his relatives, bowed and sent them away, then lowered the curtain and touched the crabapple cake that Qi Qiu brought out.

Unexpectedly, after seeing his family off, Li Peiyan turned around and saw the He family's carriage, and actually rode a horse and trotted after them.

After Li Peiyan caught up with them, he did not speak to them, but followed the carriage for a while at a distance.

It was not until he arrived at the gate of Xuanyuan Gate and saw a little head with a bun on his head popping out of the He family's carriage that he smiled knowingly and quickly asked the servant to take out the things he had prepared long ago.

It was a brocade bag the size of a palm, bulging with stuff, and no one knew what was inside.

Li Peiyan caught up with the guard accompanying the carriage with the brocade bag in his hand, lowered his voice and said a few words to the other party, then handed the brocade bag in his hand to the other party with a solemn face.

After entering the city and passing through the gate of the He family, and putting down all the luggage in the car, Qi Qiu looked at the brocade bag in the guard's hand with a shocked face, and repeated in great surprise:

"Wait, who did you say handed this to you?"

The guard scratched his head and replied seriously:

"The other party said his last name was Li, and he was the son of the Southwest Jiedushi's family. His name was Li Pei. What was Pei?"

"But Mr. Li Peiyan?"

"Yes, yes, that's the name."

Qi Qiu frowned, thinking that the He family and the Li family didn't have much interaction on a daily basis, so what did it mean that Master Li suddenly gave her a brocade bag?

"Did Master Li say who this brocade bag was for?"

The guard's eyes lit up, and he spoke with great certainty:

"Mr. Li said it was a birthday gift, so it must be for Miss Three!"

Sister Lan? ?

Qi Qiu frowned even deeper, and wondered in her heart:

Why did Sister Lan get involved with Li Peiyan out of nowhere?
