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

Jiang Feier was a little disappointed, perhaps thinking that having an aunt nagging was a kind of happiness.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiyue came over and took her hand, "Ride in my carriage, we can chat along the way and relieve our boredom."

“Great idea, Second Sister! Let your husband and brother-in-law ride in the same car; they'll have something in common to talk about.”

Jiang Feier got directly into Jiang Xiyue's car, and Jiang Xiyue handed the child directly to Li Haisheng, so that he and his brother-in-law Xiao Ming could ride together.

It's only a few dozen miles from Tongzhou County Government to the capital, and it only takes half a day to get there.

Four horse-drawn carriages and two oxcarts set off together from the back office of the Tongzhou County Government. The wheels rolled over the newly sprouted grass, leaving shallow tracks.

"Second sister, Mother has been in the south for so long and hasn't come back. Don't you miss her?"

"How could I not want to? But we all know that Mother now enjoys a free and easy life and also likes to run a workshop and do business. Mingfei once said that to be good to someone, you should do it in a way that the other person likes."

To keep a mother tied to one place simply because her children miss her is not doing her a favor; it's selfish.

Jiang Feier was somewhat surprised. It wasn't until she grew up that she and her sister realized how outrageous their Aunt Qin had been.

So at first, the two of them would secretly cry at night and secretly complain about their grandfather who sent their aunt away, but after figuring out the whole story, they were conflicted.

They originally had the opportunity to have an eighth brother, so that Mingfei could have a brother to help him, but this was ruined by their aunt.

The fact that they spared his life and didn't sell him out is already the greatest mercy and benevolence the Chiang family could show.

So what reason or standing do the sisters have to blame their grandfather and the Chiang family?

Even these past few days, when she's facing Aunt Pan, she keeps wondering, does Aunt Pan still hate her?

"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Xiyue asked when she saw that Jiang Feier hadn't made a sound for a while.

"Second sister, back then, our aunt, I mean Aunt Qin, really did something very wrong."

"We were supposed to have a younger brother or sister, weren't we?"

Jiang Xiyue didn't expect that Jiang Feier was thinking about this matter, which the family had tacitly agreed not to mention for many years.

The twin sisters Jiang Feier and Jiang Weier only learned the whole story when they grew up, unlike her and her older sister, who were already quite sensible at that time.

Fifth Sister, everyone has their own choices, and everyone has their own destiny.

However, people always have to bear the consequences of their choices. Aunt Qin chose to harm other people's children, and she could only spend the rest of her life on the estate, separated from her own flesh and blood.

By choosing to have a son, Aunt Pan had to bear the risk that the child might not be born safely and might be coveted by others.

My mother chose to leave for a distant place, and thus had to endure the pain of missing her. One cannot have it all; everyone must bear the consequences of their choices.

Jiang Feier seemed to understand, and also seemed to have let go of the matter.

"Second sister, you really know more than all of us. It seems that the extra years you and eldest sister spent studying were not wasted. We still have to catch up with you in the future."

"Speaking of which, Mr. Su and Mr. Zhao have been traveling for many years now, and I don't know when we will meet again."

I don't know if the two gentlemen received the letter I sent last time; it's been over two months, and I haven't received a reply.

"Perhaps the gentlemen are not easy to receive letters because of their unpredictable whereabouts. We may send a letter and they may have gone to another place the moment after we send it out."

Jiang Xiyue nodded, "Yes, that's the point, so whether we'll ever see each other again is really uncertain."

"I really envy the gentlemen, who can just leave whenever they want, without any worries or concerns."

Jiang Feier seemed to both envy and yearn for the outside world, and was very curious about it.

"Unless you can be as carefree and unrestrained as the gentlemen, never marrying or never remarrying, and have enough savings to support your travel expenses, it's too difficult."

Not everyone is like Lin Yueniang, and not every woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty has a son like her brother, who has enough ability, confidence, and means to support his mother in doing whatever she wants.

Even their older sisters couldn't do that; there were still many restrictions on women who married out of the country.

Even though they were already luckier and happier than most women in the Great Zhou Dynasty, they still had to fulfill their duties as wives and mothers.

When the children grow up and have their own lives, perhaps they will be able to dream of living like their mother.

As evening fell, the carriage entered the inner city.

The families divided the goods among themselves and then continued walking in different directions.

Jiang Xiyue directly returned the wooden bucket containing the fish to the Jiang family. There was no other way; the Li family had grown up by the sea and were used to eating saltwater fish, so they weren't too fond of freshwater fish.

Thinking of her younger brother's several-pound little raccoon dog, Jiang Xiyue couldn't help but chuckle a few times.

She used the little cat as an excuse, since she hadn't seen the cat eat any fish.

But his father really didn't want to bring that big tank of fish home, which was full of bones and didn't taste good. He figured he'd let his younger brother and his brother's little kitchen handle the headache.

The cat that was being eyed, oh no, the furry system, was currently staring at Jiang Xiaoqi with wide eyes.

"Who...who are you?"

Jiang Xiaoqi looked at the handsome young man in front of her and asked again.

"Host, it's me, it really is me, how many times do you want me to ask?"

The fluffy system—no, it's fluffless now.

"Don't tell me this is your new skin after the upgrade~"

"Oh my god, really, I didn't expect this either. The ultimate upgrade is opening blind boxes, and you could get any kind of appearance."

After the fluffy system was upgraded to a humanoid system, it was directly ejected from Jiang Xiaoqi's space, emerging completely naked.

The boy, with his fair skin, startled Jiang Xiaoqi as she entered the room.

Jiang Xiaoqi found some old clothes from the past two years and quickly put them on the other person, which led to the above conversation.

"So you're considered a human being now?" Jiang Xiaoqi asked.

"I'm not human, of course I'm not human! No, no, no, I'm not even human, I'm not even human!"

Uh...!!!

Why does that sound like an insult?

The two fell silent again, facing each other in silence.

Jiang Xiaoqi was thinking about how to explain to her family that she suddenly had a handsome young man by her side. After thinking about it, she could only say that he was a book boy she had bought.

"Host, I can stay in this space without coming out, it's fine."

"Are you kidding me? You finally managed to cultivate into human form, and you still haven't taken a trip in this vast world. I feel bad for you."

"What does the host mean...?"

"I'll assign you a new identity. From now on, you'll be on duty with Li Mo. I happen to be short-handed."

A page? Or a bodyguard? Either way seems fine~

"Okay, I'll do whatever the host says."

"From now on, change how you address me. Don't call me 'host' anymore. Call me 'Young Master' or 'Sir,' it's fine either way."
