Soon, a funeral took place at the Guangyang Palace where Chuchu lived.

In this life, Chuchu changed her name to Xie Yunyin.

A typical name for a lady from a noble family.

White lanterns, exquisitely carved coffins, and the cold wind of late autumn.

Xie Yunyin wiped her tears with a handkerchief, her expression frozen. Rebirth actually existed.

She actually went back to the year when she was 20 years old, the fifth year after she married into the Guangyang Palace.

"Ayun, as everyone knows, you have been married into the palace for five years but have no children. Today, all the family members are here, and your mother wants to make things clear. A Zheng died on the battlefield and has no children, so there is no one to inherit the throne of the crown prince. Your mother wants you to choose one of the descendants of the Zhao family to adopt as your own. What do you think?" Princess Si raised her voice a little, fearing that no one could hear her.

Xie Yunyin sneered in her heart. The person was dead, and she was still asked to raise someone else's child alone, just for the hereditary title of the Prince's Mansion!

It's really ironic.

Even though his son is dead, he still refuses to let go of his daughter-in-law who has no status in name only?

"Mother, Ah Zheng just left. I'm not in the mood to think about this. Can we talk about it later? Ever since he got married, he said he was going to Yanmen Pass to assist the Prince. He's been gone for five years. How can I have a child on my own?"

She was married to the Prince of Guangyang's Mansion at the age of 15, and she had never even touched Li Yunzheng's hand. She was not afraid of being laughed at when she said this, because she was still a virgin!

"Today is a rare opportunity. All the children are here, and all the outstanding children in the clan are here. You can choose any one of them." Si insisted that Xie Yunyin be adopted now.

In her previous life, she obediently chose a child who cried very sadly - Li Qing.

She thought that since she was a widow and lonely, it would be nice to have a child as a companion.

Moreover, the child was smart and passed the imperial examination. Just when she was happy and excited, Li Qing died overnight.

She was heartbroken and bedridden, but Li Yunzheng came back with a woman and a son, and the child quietly replaced Li Qing's position.

Li Yunzheng came to see her while she was sick, his eyes cold and his tone indifferent: "I don't like you, you know. Your adopted son is dead, and Hong Ge'er will take his place."

The woman standing behind Li Yunzheng was young and beautiful, smiling triumphantly.

"You didn't die, and you had a child with another woman... Hehe... You are so cruel! I have been alone in the palace for fifteen years, but you were out there..." Xie Yunyin was so angry that she couldn't speak!

Haha, what irony, what a huge irony!

What were these fifteen years for her?

She spat out a mouthful of black blood and died of anger on her sickbed!

She was only thirty years old that year.

She dedicated her best years to the Guangyang Palace, but in the end she did not have a good ending!

In this life, how could she watch the story repeat itself?

However, no one in the Zhao family knows that Li Yun is faking his death.

They only cared about not losing the hereditary throne of Guangyang Palace. No one cared about her feelings!

She was filled with resentment, wishing she could destroy the Guangyang Palace right this instant and flee far away, never to return.

She calculated the time and knew that Princess Si would soon know that Li Yunzheng was still alive, and she had ignored Qing'er since then.

This Prince's Mansion was just an empty shell, and she was unwilling to fill it with her dowry.

Since she must adopt a child, she must have the conditions!

Li Yunzheng and Qu Dier are taking care of a child, so it must cost a lot!

If the power of the family was in her hands, Li Yunzheng would never get a dime of silver. To get him back, he had to beg her like a dog.

Okay, then adopt him.

She especially remembered that Li Yunzheng and Naqu Dier later had a daughter.

Then she would adopt two children, a boy and a girl, and regard them as Li Yunzheng's legitimate sons and daughters, and their children would always be illegitimate sons and daughters.

"Mother, in that case, your daughter-in-law wants to adopt two children, a boy and a girl. I think Qing'er is good, and Ling'er is also good."

Xie Yunyin had to choose Qing'er. Qing'er had no mother and his father was useless.

But Ling Jie'er is also a poor child. Her stepmother passed away early and she was abused by her stepmother.

In her previous life, she often secretly helped the child, and the child eventually grew up and married a scholar, and they lived a relatively harmonious life.

Si Shi didn't expect Xie Yunyin to agree so quickly. She said earnestly, "Alright, then two. Ah Yun, it's a good thing you can figure it out."

"However, mother, your daughter-in-law wants to hand over something in front of the clan members." Xie Yunyin would not adopt two children for nothing.

Si's expression changed. Since there were so many people around, it was difficult to get angry, so he asked, "What do you want to hand over?"

Xie Yunyin said sincerely, "Mother, you have worked hard for the Prince's Mansion over the years and have made great contributions. We have all seen it."

"Today, in front of my clan members, I want to hand over the reins of the family and focus on raising Qing'er and Ling'er."

Si immediately wiped away her tears and choked up, saying, "There's no rush. Mother knows you're heartbroken, and she also knows you're a filial and good child. Mother doesn't blame you. It's not too late to talk about it when you feel better."

Mrs. Si didn't want it. She still wanted to live her leisurely life. How could she be dragged into the matter of being the head of the household?

Xie Yunyin knew that the money in the mansion had been squandered early on, and in the end they had to sell the real estate, land, and shops to make ends meet.

"Mother, Ah Zheng is gone, and I really don't have the mood to manage the household anymore..."

Xie Yunyin wiped her tears with a handkerchief, her almond-shaped eyes were red and swollen, and I felt sorry for her.

"Mother, can Ah Zheng rest in peace in his grave? Forget it, I'll just follow Ah Zheng. What the hell is this about adopting a child? Ah Zheng, wait for me, I'll go with you right away..."
