The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

She knew that the man was going to leave tonight, and once he left, she would follow the original story and take her things into the city to do other things.

The next day, when Meng Fanchu entered the house again, the man was gone.

The bed was made neatly, and on the table were several hundred-dollar silver bills. She walked over and counted them, ten in total.

How generous! I guess it's all the money I can scrape together.

This is good, it will relieve him of such a heavy psychological burden.

Meng Fanchu didn't worry too much about how powerful the person was. After all, he would see him again in the future.

Next, she took the goods into the city.

It was still the same place and time. When Gu Huaijin, dressed in an elegant white robe, saw the face that looked similar to his mother and sister, he was immediately attracted to it as in his previous life.

What happened next was also a natural progression, but in this life, Meng Fanchu was even more pitiful than in the previous life, which made Gu Huaijin feel pity for her.

Because there were still things to do, he took Meng Fanchu with him on the road.

Meng Fanchu returned to the house and packed some things. He took the medicine he had made and the spirit tablets of Jiang's father and mother, kowtowed three times towards the yard, and went up the mountain to say goodbye to his two masters before embarking on his journey with Gu Huaijin.

However, she knew that Gu Huaijin had already passed the news of his discovery back to his ancestral home outside the capital, but did not pass it on to the Meng family. After all, the Gu family was very dissatisfied with the Meng family.

Although he knew that the daughter in his house was a fake one, he still treated her like a treasure and didn't even plan to send anyone to find his real daughter.

Therefore, the General's Mansion did not send anyone to spread this news.

They traveled to several counties, ostensibly to purchase high-quality furs and precious herbs, but in reality, they just made arrangements for Meng Fanchu every day and then took their men out.

Meng Fanchu was not curious about what her second uncle was doing. She just focused on doing her own thing.

She wanted her second uncle to have complete trust in her during this process, and to be both capable and worthy of sympathy.

She demonstrated her outstanding medical skills and quick learning ability, which made Gu Huaijin very satisfied with her.

After almost two months, they finally arrived at Huisheng County outside Chang'an City and prepared to enter the city the next day.

At that time, Meng Fanchu was no longer the cautious, timid country girl.

In her previous life, after she was brought back to the capital, she was taken back to the Marquis' Mansion within two days.

At that time, she was looking forward to the favor of her family with great joy, thinking that she would be loved by the whole family. Unexpectedly, when she returned home, she was met with disdainful eyes from her parents, exclusion and disgust from her brothers and sisters, and even a random maid and servant in the house could laugh at her at will.

The Marquis's Mansion hired a nanny to teach her. She felt increasingly inferior and thought that as long as she learned the rules well, she would be loved by everyone. Unfortunately...

Therefore, she was naturally adept at the etiquette of noble ladies in the capital.

However, in order to avoid suspicion, she still carefully followed the nanny sent by Gu Huaijin to learn the rules that she had already memorized in her previous life, and even made them more standardized and appropriate so that no one could find any mistakes.

Therefore, the nanny praised Meng Fanchu in front of his second uncle.

On several occasions, Meng Fanchu deliberately revealed some of her own insights during conversations with Gu Huaijin, which made Gu Huaijin like her even more.

At this time, they stayed in the largest inn in Huisheng County. Meng Fanchu was accompanied by a little maid that his second uncle had just bought on the road. She was only ten years old, but was almost given to a brothel by her alcoholic father. Meng Fanchu begged his uncle to spend four taels of silver to buy her and keep her by his side to serve him.

After going into the room, washing up and changing clothes, Meng Fanchu went to knock on the door of his second uncle who lived next door.

Gu Huaijin was just about to go out, but he didn't expect Meng Fanchu to come to find him, but he still let her go into the house first.

"What's wrong with Chu'er? Are you a little nervous?"

Gu Huaijin saw the worry and forbearance on the girl's young face and asked with some pity.

This niece has given me many surprises along the way! I have to say that this is the descendant of their Gu family. Even though she has been living away from home for so many years, she is still very smart.

"Uncle... Dad and Mom... Will they like Chu'er?"

In her previous life, Meng Fanchu was patient and strong in the face of everything. However, this kind of character did not win anyone's praise or love. Instead, people felt that she did not need anyone's care at all.

In this life, she must not be like this anymore. The crying child gets candy, and she wants to be that child who gets candy.

Gu Huaijin looked at the girl's timid and expectant eyes, and felt a little sad.

Of course, he knew about the moral character of the Meng family and his sister.

The Meng family has begun to decline, and the younger sister has repeatedly begged her father for help on behalf of her brother-in-law, which has made her family very disappointed in her.

But after all, she was his own daughter, and the father couldn't completely ignore her, so he shamelessly allowed his brother-in-law to enter the court and become an official of the fourth rank.

What made their family even more angry was that their younger sister was willing to use her dowry to maintain the reputation of the Marquis's Mansion after marrying into it. Because of this, their mother was so angry that she became ill, but no matter how she preached, it was of no use.

Even in recent years, under the instigation of those people in the Marquis' Mansion, he gradually had less contact with the General's Mansion.

Back then, the eldest brother discovered that the girl in the Marquis' Mansion had no marks of the Meng family at all. He became suspicious and looked for the midwife who delivered her baby. Only then did he learn that the girl was indeed not his sister's biological daughter.

However, the Marquis' Mansion did not care much about whether the girl was their biological blood or not, and did not even think about looking for someone.

So, now when my niece asked me whether the Marquis’ Mansion would like her, I really didn’t know how to answer.

As if she saw his hesitation, the expectant light in the girl's eyes slowly dimmed.

"If they don't welcome me, then... Uncle, I don't want to go back."

The words were like those of a little girl throwing a tantrum, but they did not make Gu Huaijin impatient. Looking at the red eyes, he quickly comforted her:

"Don't worry, Chu'er. They will... naturally like you! You are so smart and sensible, anyone would like you."

This is of course a lie.

"Uncle, can I not go back to the Marquis' Mansion yet?" She needed time to gain a foothold in the capital, to build her own influence and reputation. "My parents already have a daughter. If I go back suddenly, it will definitely be difficult for the girl to accept, and..."

Meng Fanchu paused for a moment, then continued with some sadness, "Besides, her family must have gotten along very well with that girl. If I were to intrude, I'm afraid no one would like me."

"But..." Gu Huaijin also hesitated.

If such a smart and sensible child were to suddenly fall into a cruel place like the Marquis' Mansion, who knows how much injustice he would have to endure.
