After being reborn as a man, the woman improved her family's fortunes through education.

Having stayed in Chunyi County for almost three months, Jiang Xiaoqi and Lin Yueniang planned to move on to other places.

The main problem was that it was too much of a disturbance to the Cui family. Although Jiang Xiaoqi later managed to find a lot of good things from her space and had her mother give them to Madam Cui.

These things would be enough to stay in an inn for several years, but the Cui family is not an inn, and the accounts are not calculated that way.

After soaking in the hot springs, the two still wanted to see more places, otherwise the year or so before the provincial examination would be wasted.

Lin Yueniang was never worried about whether her son's studies were solid, after all, Jiang Xiaoqi was never idle.

The fact that Master Cui could become friends with Mr. Ouyang suggests that he was not merely a wealthy man.

During this time, Jiang Xiaoqi often sought advice and knowledge from Master Cui.

Master Cui and Mr. Ouyang are different, and their ways of thinking are completely different.

This world has talented people, great talents, geniuses, and even eccentric geniuses.

Master Cui was a genius; he always had his own unique logic in doing things, but he was at a loss when it came to teaching his son.

Jiang Xiaoqi decided to set off in three days, so Lin Yueniang took him to say goodbye to Master Cui and his wife.

"Mingfei, stay a little longer! There are still many fun places to visit in Chunyi."

Master Cui genuinely wanted him to stay. During this time, he discussed scholarship, studied poetry and prose, and played chess with Jiang Xiaoqi. Master Cui seemed to have found the joy of raising a son in Jiang Mingfei.

Raising a smart and ambitious son is so much more comfortable, but this is someone else's son... sigh~

I really envy Mingfei's dad; he has such a smart, ambitious, and hardworking son.

Hey~

Master Cui kept sighing, while Madam Cui was both amused and exasperated.

"Master, no matter how much you like Mingfei, he's still a member of the Jiang family. You can't just take him away from us, can you?"

"Snatch it?" Master Cui's eyes lit up, and he actually began to consider the feasibility of this.

Madam Cui was dumbfounded. She was just joking. Had her husband gone mad?

The Jiang family isn't some rootless, nameless rural peasant family. Besides, according to Yue Niang, Ming Fei is the only son of the Jiang family, the only male heir in four generations.

The Jiang family has six daughters in this generation: two legitimate sons and four illegitimate sons. However, they only have one legitimate son!

This is no ordinary illegitimate son from a younger brother's family. You can't just adopt him off like that. Master, you really dare to think this way!

"What kind of person do you think your master is? Don't think that just because the Jiang family is well-off, even if they were an ordinary family, they wouldn't do such a thing."

Master Cui finally revealed his plan: he wanted to adopt Jiang Xiaoqi as his godson!

"Godson?"

Madam Cui was also tempted. Over the past few days, she had gotten along well with Lin Yueniang and also greatly admired the clever and handsome young master Jiang.

If we discuss it properly, Yue Niang should be able to agree, right?

But Mingfei's father is far away in the capital. This round trip will take quite a few days, won't it?

Madam Cui then voiced her question. Master Cui had also thought of this, but he still didn't want to miss out on such a good child.

It's reasonable for my good friend Shan Chu's disciple to become my godson, right?

"Madam, Mingfei and her son will be setting off the day after tomorrow. If we want to make this happen, we need to hurry!"

"Alright, tomorrow, no, I'll go find Yue Niang now. Master, please wait for my news."

Since there is no man in charge of the Jiang family here, it would be more appropriate for Madam Cui to step forward.

In the guest courtyard, Fuling and Li Mo were packing some luggage that they wouldn't need for the time being.

Since we'll be staying for two more nights, we can't pack away the things we actually need, otherwise we'll have to dig them out again later.

Jiang Xiaoqi then searched through her space again, but this time it wasn't things like writing brushes, ink, paper, or jewelry.

He took out two health-preserving pills that he hadn't used in a long time, one for Madam Cui and one for Master Cui.

Master Ouyang's hidden ailment has been completely cured under Jiang Xiaoqi's care, and he can live a healthy life for another ten or twenty years without any problem.

After all, Mr. Ouyang was also a martial artist, and those hidden injuries were old wounds left from the battlefield when he was young.

After more than two years of conditioning, Ouyang Zheng's physical condition seemed to have been completely rebuilt.

If you ignore his appearance and only look at his internal organs, Ouyang Zheng's current condition is comparable to that of a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.

Master Cui was a good friend of Mr. Ouyang, and he had taken good care of them during this time, which also greatly benefited them in their studies.

Madam Cui was a generous and forthright person, and she got along very well with her mother, Lin Yueniang.

Having bothered them for so long, they should at least offer some form of apology, no matter which side you're on.

The Cui family has neither a lack of money nor a lack of reputation, but the head of the Cui family is already past the age of fifty.

Since the Cui family has no biological sons, Jiang Xiaoqi is powerless to do anything about it. After all, they can't let Master Cui take a concubine, can they?

The couple were of one mind, and they preferred to have a son adopted from the younger brother's family rather than take a concubine. This made Jiang Xiaoqi very admire them, and Lin Yueniang very envious.

Jiang Xiaoqi would never repay kindness with enmity; all she could do was help the two, who were getting older, take care of their health.

May good people enjoy good health and longevity, and may they live a peaceful life.

Two health-enhancing pills weren't actually enough, but since they were my own stock, I took them out first.

He had a few Snow Skin Pills and Marrow Cleansing Pills left in his inventory, which left him somewhat conflicted.

After some consideration, I used 2000 points from the system to exchange for two Invulnerability Pills.

This was previously a non-sale item of the system, but after Jiang Xiaoqi upgraded the system again, the system became unusually easy to deal with.

Now that Jiang Xiaoqi has a steady income from the interest on the stored points, she doesn't feel so bad about upgrading the system.

Moreover, after the system upgrade, his pitiful "exquisite space" finally expanded tenfold, now holding ten cubic meters.

After the space was expanded, Jiang Xiaoqi moved all the items from the external space, namely the jade pendant, into her upgraded Linglong Space.

Although it is much bigger now, he still prefers to call it "Linglong Space".

Pulling myself out of my thoughts, I picked out a beautifully carved, appropriately sized gift box from a pile of empty gift boxes of various sizes and colors in the corner of the room.

Then, in the large wooden box, he rummaged through a bunch of bottles and jars and found a few porcelain bottles of the same style but different colors.

Two Snow Skin Pills are placed in a white porcelain bottle; two Marrow Cleansing Pills are placed in a blue porcelain bottle; two Body Strengthening Pills are placed in a gray porcelain bottle; and two Invulnerability Pills are placed in a black porcelain bottle.

After packing, the bottle openings were tightly sealed, and the four porcelain bottles were then placed into a carved rosewood box.

After tying a cross knot on the back of the brocade box with a light purple ribbon, I turned it over and tied a beautiful and elegant bow on the front.

Yes, it looks a lot like the style of wrapping birthday gifts in later times; in short, it's very beautiful.

After doing all this, I started packing my things as usual, throwing away what could fit in the space and putting what couldn't be put in a large wooden box.

We'll definitely need to get a carriage for this trip. There's no other way; the Cui family has provided us with so much stuff, it would be disrespectful not to take it with us.

"Young Master, Madam Cui has arrived. She wants you to come over as well, saying there are some things she wants to discuss with you in person."

"About me? Okay, tell your mother, I'll be there right away!"
