Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

From then on, Zhan Zheng's official career suddenly changed its pattern.

The Crown Prince valued him highly, and the Emperor was also willing to cultivate him. With these two at his top making their stance clear, all the chief ministers naturally treated him with kindness and respect.

Although everyone around him seemed to be a good person, Zhan Zheng felt extremely uncomfortable and quietly said to Yin Yin, "It's as if all of you have suddenly become different people."

If Zhan Zheng's father hadn't died, he would have remained the eldest grandson of that prestigious family, raised with a life of luxury and privilege from childhood. In this situation, he might have naively believed that everyone was a good person.

However, Zhan Zheng had already learned to grow up at the age of six and knew the wickedness of people's hearts, so he naturally found it difficult to accept such a situation calmly.

Yin Yin understood in her heart, but said aloud, "It's just that he went from being indifferent to being two-faced. Isn't this another kind of training for Big Brother?"

“Yes, yes,” Zhan Zheng laughed, “Yinyin, you always manage to see things from a unique perspective.”

Yinyin snorted and said smugly, "Big brother, did you only find out today?"

“Of course not,” Zhan Zheng’s gaze shifted from Yin Yin’s face to the peach blossoms outside the window. “As for Wang Yingman, I’ve already planned to make some moves ahead of schedule.”

He was telling her this on purpose... Yin Yin looked up at him: "Is there anything you need me to do, big brother?"

Zhan Zheng didn't stand on ceremony with her: "Didn't you say before that you wanted to host a banquet for the Fourth Princess and the Tenth Princess? It was delayed due to other matters and couldn't be held smoothly. Now that the rain has stopped and the peach blossoms are in full bloom, the banquet can be held again."

Just as Yinyin was about to nod, she heard him speak again: "Last time, Sister-in-law Xun helped you. This time, why don't you invite your mother to come along for a trip? It will help you and also help her relax."

Since Yin Yin is hosting a banquet, Zhan Zheng, as the hostess, certainly can't be absent. And because the Sixth Prince has been a great help this time, he expressed his desire to attend, so it wouldn't be good not to invite him. Since there are male guests, Zhan Zheng should also accompany them.

If Yu Miaoqi were to accompany them on the trip, then the entire main house would be left with only Wang Yingman.

Don't be fooled by Wang Yingman's current obedience and good daughter-in-law appearance under Yu Miaoqi's command. Once she loses the person who can keep her in check, no one can predict what will happen.

Just like on the night of the Lantern Festival, during a short break when she was alone at home, she had a secret rendezvous with someone. Before she could keep it a secret, Chunrui found out.

Now that they're going to the village, Yinyin and the others will be away from home for at least a day.

“I understand,” Yin Yin agreed immediately, and then went to persuade Yu Miaoqi.

After hearing about the guests who were going, Yu Miaoqi hesitated a bit: "It's an occasion for young people, how can I go? Why don't you ask Wang to accompany you?"

Wang Yingman? If she goes with us, wouldn't she ruin my brother's plans? That won't do.

“Who said you couldn’t go? This time, we’re going to the outskirts of the capital for two reasons: first, to fulfill our promise to go out, and second, to thank the Sixth Prince and the Tenth Princess for their help.”

Yinyin took Yu Miaoqi's hand and shook it gently: "Mother, you should come with us. We can take this opportunity to stay on the estate for a few more days before coming back."

"The peach blossoms on the estate are in full bloom now, and I would like to stay a few more days to brew some peach blossom wine."

As Yinyin spoke, she added softly, "When my brother is busy, I'll tell him to come back by himself."

Yu Miaoqi was somewhat tempted. She hadn't left the house since the Lantern Festival. If she hadn't left the city, it would have been the last time she went to Yinyin Manor.

Come to think of it, she hadn't had a moment of peace for quite some time. Since Yinyin said she wanted to stay a few more days, if she, as the elder, didn't go, Yinyin couldn't stay on the estate by herself for long.

Having convinced herself, Yu Miaoqi didn't refuse again: "Have you decided when to go? I'll ask your fifth aunt to help take care of things at home for a few days."

Yinyin blinked: "Mom, aren't you going to ask my sister-in-law to stay home and help keep an eye on things?"

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, Yu Miaoqi knew that she and Wang Yingman were now quite estranged, so she simply didn't bother to ask Wang Yingman to come along and disturb her mood.

After all, how could a daughter-in-law who didn't care about her family compare to her own daughter? Yu Miaoqi immediately said, "Then let her stay at home and keep an eye on things at Dongchang Courtyard. Are you satisfied?"

Of course I'm satisfied!

This not only left Wang Yingman alone at home, but also temporarily put her in charge of the main house. Given Wang Yingman's personality, it was impossible for her not to do something.

Yinyin immediately smiled and said, "My mother still loves me the most."

Seeing her happy, Yu Miaoqi couldn't help but smile as well.

Zhan Zheng entered at that moment. Seeing that the two of them were both very happy, he couldn't help but ask, "What good news is this?"

“Of course it’s a good thing,” Yinyin said first. “Mother has agreed to go to the estate with us.”

"Oh!" Zhan Zheng nodded. "That's indeed a good thing. Mother should have gone out for a trip a long time ago."

“That’s right,” Yin Yin said with a sly smile. “Mother rarely goes out, so you should do your job well, brother. Mother and I are planning to stay on the estate for a few more days.”

Zhan Zheng was taken aback. He exchanged a glance with Yin Yin before lowering his eyelids, looking rather disappointed: "Fine, you've abandoned me again and gone off to play by yourselves."

“But you’re not home alone either,” Yin Yin said, feigning guilt. “Your sister-in-law is home too.”

Yu Miaoqi was unaware that the brother and sister were openly exchanging messages in front of her. She only defended Yin Yin, saying, "It's rare for us to go out. Can't Yin Yin and I relax a bit?"

"How could that be?" Zhan Zheng quickly protested, "Mother, I didn't say a single word of objection."

Yu Miaoqi coughed lightly: "It's no use you objecting. It's your job that can't be delayed."

"Yes, yes, yes," Zhan Zheng simply couldn't do anything with his mother and sister, especially when the two of them were on the same side, he could only retreat step by step.

Fortunately, Yinyin came out to comfort him at the right time: "When my peach blossom wine is ready, I will definitely save an extra jar for you, brother. When you drink my wine, you won't be happy, will you?"

"You want to brew wine?" Zhan Zheng's eyes lit up. "The name 'Peach Blossom Wine' is too ordinary. Give me a few more jars, and I'll give you a better name."

"If I don't give you more, won't you help me choose a good name, brother?" Yin Yin said, but she couldn't bear to refuse him in the end. She just said, "We'll need to bring more people to collect peach blossoms, and we don't have enough good wine. We'll have to ask someone to send some more."

Yu Miaoqi sat to the side, watching Yin Yin make plans with a happy smile, feeling very satisfied.

Such peaceful and happy days are best enjoyed at home.
