As soon as Lin Qing opened the gate, Xu Fengjiao jumped in from outside the courtyard, along with Lu Xianghong.

"Qingqing, your house is really hard to find. It was Sister Xiang Hong who helped me find it. If I were alone, I definitely wouldn't have been able to find it."

As soon as Xu Fengjiao entered the door, she started chattering away. Even though she's a mother, she still acts like she hasn't grown up.

"What brings you two here today?!"

Lin Qing smiled as she ushered the two of them into the central courtyard.

"Qingqing, your house is really grand, with so many rooms, it's so spacious!"

As Xu Fengjiao followed Lin Qing to the back, she said with a smile. Lu Xianghong couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Of course it's magnificent! It's a three-courtyard siheyuan! And it's so well preserved. It would be worth a fortune in the future."

Lin Qing smiled and said, "What's there to envy? You're not short of money. When houses can be bought and sold, you can buy one too."

"Can houses really be bought and sold? If they can, I'll definitely buy one. It's so much more comfortable to live in one yourself, and I can do whatever I want with it!"

After hearing Lin Qing's words, Xu Fengjiao was somewhat tempted, so she asked curiously.

"It's definitely possible. So many people are returning to the city now, and there are many people without houses. It's only a matter of time before the housing market opens up."

Lin Qing said with a smile.

"Qingqing is right, but it is indeed convenient to be able to live alone. I will buy one too when the time comes."

Lu Xianghong interjected with a big smile, as if she could see herself buying many houses in the future and then sitting and collecting rent.

"Did you come here today to hang out, or is there something else you need?"

Lin Qing led the two to the room, poured each of them a cup of tea, and then asked with a smile.

"I mainly came to get acquainted with the place and also to ask you when we're going to school. I've inquired and found out that we can register at Beijing University three days in advance, so we can register on the same day."

Xu Fengjiao took a sip of tea and then said excitedly.

Lin Qing lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "How about we report the day after tomorrow? Nanxun is also reporting the day after that. He can go with me to report the day after tomorrow, and then I can go with him to report the day after that."

"You two are so lovey-dovey! After all these years, how come you still can't live without each other?"

Xu Fengjiao teased with a smile.

"No, Nanxun has a car, right? It'll be easier to move the luggage then!"

After Lin Qing finished speaking, she turned her head and glanced at her unpacked luggage. Following Lin Qing's gaze, Xu Fengjiao also saw the luggage on the side, so she asked curiously.

"Why, Qingqing, are you going to live on campus? You don't seem to be too far from Imperial University!"

"I don't want to live on campus, but I'd like a dormitory room so I can go back to rest at noon and come back in the evening. What do you guys think? Do you want to live on campus?"

"Of course we have to live on campus! We live so far from school, if we rode our bikes every day, we'd be exhausted!"

Xu Fengjiao exaggeratedly remarked, and Lu Xianghong nodded in agreement. Both Xu Fengjiao and Lu Xianghong lived in the military compound, so they were both quite far from the school. Lin Qing, on the other hand, lived in a more central location, so it wasn't too far to either the military compound or the school.

"So how will you get there the day after tomorrow? Do you need Nanxun to pick you up?"

Lin Qing continued to inquire.

"No need, Haoran will drive his dad's car then."

Xu Fengjiao shook her head and said.

Lu Xianghong also shook her head and said, "Chen Bin has already borrowed the car from Uncle."

Lin Qing nodded knowingly upon hearing this.

"Let's go shopping tomorrow! School starts soon, we need to buy some clothes! All my clothes are suitable for farming in the countryside, not for school!"

Suddenly, Xu Fengjiao made a suggestion.

Lin Qing's eyes lit up upon hearing this. How could she have forgotten to buy clothes! Although she already had many beautiful clothes, all bought for her by Zhao Xuan over the years—Zhao Xuan would buy her beautiful clothes whenever she returned to Beijing—as a woman, who would complain about not having enough beautiful clothes? Besides, school was about to start, and she definitely needed to wear new clothes!

"Great, great, I almost forgot! Let's go shopping for clothes tomorrow! You can also pack your things when you get home tonight and see what you need so we can buy it together tomorrow."

"Okay, it's settled then. But Fengjiao, you'd better study hard, because Qingqing and I will be relying on you for our clothes from now on!"

Lu Xianghong nodded in agreement, and afterwards, she even made a rare joke about Xu Fengjiao.

Upon hearing this, Xu Fengjiao proudly patted her chest, "Don't worry, once I've mastered the craft, I'll take care of all your and Qingqing's clothes. I promise to make you beautiful clothes."

Lin Qing nodded with a smile, "Okay, then I'll leave my and Xiang Hong's clothes to you from now on."

"No problem, but besides buying clothes, we also need to buy some cosmetics. After all, we won't be working in the fields anymore, so we need to dress up!"

Xu Fengjiao nodded confidently and said, then carefully examined Lin Qing's cheek for a while, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, saying sourly, "How come, even though we both went to the countryside, Xiang Hong and I don't have skin as good as yours!"

Lin Qing also reached out and touched her cheek, then said with a smile, "Your skin isn't bad either. Look at others, and then look at you two. You don't look like people who have been to the countryside!"

Actually, Lin Qing's good skin is because she drinks spiritual spring water every day. Lu Xianghong and Xu Fengjiao's skin is not bad either, but it can't compare to Lin Qing's. However, their skin is actually better than most people in the city who have never been to the countryside. This is largely due to the fact that they often come to Lin Qing's house for meals.

Lu Xianghong also reached out and touched her own skin. She nodded in satisfaction. Although she envied Lin Qing's good skin, she knew that her skin was not bad at all. Compared with her previous life, it was worlds apart. She was already very satisfied with having such good skin.

In this life, she not only recovered her health but also made money, married a good man, and had children, all of which made Lu Xianghong satisfied.

"Why don't we invite your two family members too? After all, they're starting school soon and need to buy some new outfits."

Lin Qing suggested with a smile.

"Hmm, you're right. You should also invite Xixi and your third brother."

Lu Xianghong nodded in agreement.

The group chatted for a while longer until Gu Nanxun returned, at which point Lu Xianghong and Xu Fengjiao said goodbye to Lin Qing and left.

"Why are they here?!"

After seeing Lu Xianghong and Xu Fengjiao leave, Gu Nanxun walked to Lin Qing's side, put his arm around Lin Qing's waist, and casually asked.
