Exile at the start? The princess is no ordinary woman.

Gu Nanzhi took a bath in the large bathtub to relieve the aches and pains in her body...

After waiting for a long time, Gu Nanzhi still hadn't come out of the room, and Jun Yanchen was getting impatient, worried that she might be feeling unwell, injured, or something similar...

Just as he was finally about to get up and knock on the door to ask what was wrong, the door was finally opened from the inside.

"Nan Nan, are you feeling unwell?"

Before leaving, Gu Nanzhi had mentally prepared herself. No awkwardness, what was there to be awkward about? It's about romance, a perfectly normal thing.

Therefore, she accepted Jun Yanchen's concern and the gazes coming from all directions with equanimity, and she could sense that these gazes were filled with blessings.

Of course, there's one that's the opposite; you don't even need to look to know who it is...

Those who want to think about her? Ha, dream on.

"No, I'm a little hungry,"

Gu Nanzhi tilted her head back, and her straightforward words somehow came across as a bit coquettish to Jun Yanchen.

"Uncle Li, breakfast is ready."

After giving the order, Jun Yanchen took Gu Nanzhi's hand without hesitation and led her towards the living room.

After Gu Nanzhi had breakfast under Jun Yanchen's care, it was almost time for Huai Xu to pack up and prepare to leave.

Granny Xu and He Xin'er reluctantly boarded the carriage.

Huai Xu bowed to Jun Yanchen and Gu Nanzhi again.

"My lord, my lady, I take my leave. Take care."

"Um"

"Bye-bye, take care, see you later, Ah Huaixu,"

Gu Nanzhi waved goodbye to the man. Huai Xu was her business partner, and he would be making money for her in the future, so it was only right that she give him a smile.

Huai Xu then bid farewell to his brothers, including Cang Ling and Bai Zang...

------

After seeing Huai Xu off and having lunch, Gu Nanzhi, Jun Yanchen, and the others prepared to go to the Qi family's house in the next village around 10 PM.

Today, the whole family is going to visit relatives together, because it also involves Gu Nanzhi changing her address to someone else today.

She always brought something with her when she visited, and today was no exception. Gu Nanzhi even prepared a gift for the Qi family herself.

Traveling with two horse-drawn carriages together was quite a grand affair. As they left the village, they attracted attention and were greeted by everyone until they were out of the village.

As they got closer to Baixue Village, Gu Nanzhi felt a little nervous.

Although it wasn't the first time they'd met, and they were even somewhat familiar with each other, their attitude and way of addressing the Qi family were different before.

Today marks the passing of time; our mindset has changed, and so should the way we address each other.

Later, they would act as relatives...

She felt a little embarrassed and nervous.

Jun Yanchen held Gu Nanzhi's hand the whole time, comforting her while also wanting to play with her soft hand; it felt very comfortable to hold it.

"Are you nervous?"

"Yes, there is a difference in mindset,"

"With me here, everything will be alright."

Even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her in-laws eventually, especially since everyone except Gu Nanzhi and Jun Yanchen, the two people involved, already clearly understands the relationship between the two.

Upon arriving at the Qi family home, they were greeted with the same warm hospitality and joy as always.

In fact, the Qi family already understood that Jun Yanchen and Gu Nanzhi had crossed that line, and they were all happy about it.

Today I roughly understand their purpose.

Therefore, it can be considered that they were prepared in advance.

After the warm greetings, everyone gathered in the main hall.

Gu Nanzhi and Jun Yanchen stood in the middle, while the two elders were at the head of the table.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, Uncles, and Aunts, I was previously confused and disrespectful. Now that things have cleared up, I offer you all a cup of tea today, and I hope you can forgive me..."

The moment those affectionate words were uttered, the smiles on the Qi family's faces grew even brighter. What a wonderful child! They had finally found him.

Huaiqing now has someone who cares for her, and their long-cherished wish has finally come true.

Although they were far from the bustling capital this time, they encountered something even more important...

"Good, good, good, good child, good child, that's right. Seeing that you two are of one mind, Grandfather is relieved..."

The entire main hall was filled with a festive atmosphere.

Then the tea was served, and Gu Nanzhi and Jun Yanchen personally offered it to their elders.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, please have some tea,"

"Alright, alright, Huaiqing, Nanzhi, from now on you two must be of one heart and one mind..."

As the elders accepted the cup of tea, they also offered their blessings and congratulations to the couple...

After the tea ceremony and everyone addressed each other as "good friends," Gu Nanzhi then presented the gifts she had prepared for everyone.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, uncles, aunts... I have no gifts to offer, so I can only use what I've learned to prepare a small gift for you all. This is a ginseng I dug up in the mountains. This one is a hundred years old, and the other is about eighty years old. They have already been prepared. I hope you will accept them with pleasure."

"Furthermore, this is a panacea, capable of curing all poisons, except for rare toxins..."

"This is a Rejuvenating Pill, also known as a resurrection pill, which can bring withered trees back to life. This pill can strengthen the body... It is most suitable for maternal grandfather and grandmother..."

"This is a Nourishing Essence Pill..."

"A youth-preserving pill..."

The meager gift Gu Nanzhi mentioned was enough to make the Qi family feel ashamed. Don't underestimate these simple pills; they are worth a fortune, even more valuable than gold.

Ultimately, when one reaches a certain point, the greatest fear is death.

The reason why the Valley of Divine Healers attracts so many people is precisely this.

They had witnessed Gu Nanzhi's medical skills firsthand; she was the junior sister He Mobai had begged to acknowledge. The amount of medicine she produced was evident.

This is a truly generous gift...

"Nanzhi, these pills are far too precious, and you dug this ginseng yourself. Keep it for yourself; we don't need these things now..."

"Yes, Nanzhi, these pills must have taken a lot of effort and used many precious medicinal herbs..."

Such a generous gift is undeserved by the Qi family. They haven't offered anything of substance to their first meeting, so how could they allow this child to spend so much?

If they were still in the capital, they might still have something to give as a gift...

Preparing these things was laborious, but not too bad. As for the medicinal herbs, she used those she had previously obtained from the Imperial Medical Academy, plus she had also cultivated many medicinal herbs in her own space...

So it just took her some time and effort.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, uncles, aunts... please accept these; they were specially prepared for you all..."

Gu Nanzhi prepared all of these things herself today without telling anyone, not even Jun Yanchen.
