They arrived at Sanchakou Village in the afternoon.
Gu Yingxue had already run to the village entrance several times. When she saw Lao Zhang driving the car, she excitedly ran up to him.
"Grand Uncle, Grand Aunt, Sister Xinxin, Brother Xiaojin!" Gu Yingxue ran happily to the carriage and called out to them.
"Xue'er, you've arrived. Where's Enzi?" Gu Xin jumped off the carriage, stretched, and said, "I've been traveling for most of the day. I'm going to walk."
Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, and Cheng Huaijin also got out of the car and walked with Gu Xin.
Gu Yingxue linked arms with Gu Xin and said with a smile, "We arrived yesterday. Brother Enzi went to town and said he would be back soon. I wonder what he went to do."
Gu Xin's eyes darted around, and she immediately thought of something: "I bet Enzi went to see Yingying. Oh dear, the Gu family is so devoted! But Yingying is already married. When Enzi comes back, I can talk to her properly as her older sister."
Grandpa and Grandma Gu both shook their heads with smiles. Enzi had been bullied by his older and younger sisters quite a bit. At first, Enzi was the only boy in the family, and the rest were all older and younger sisters. It was nothing like the treatment that other families only had one grandson.
They won't interfere; the siblings have their own way of getting along.
Upon entering the village, which was the place where Lu Zheng and Grandma Xiao used to live, Gu Xin began to introduce it to Gu Yingxue.
She recounted the playful fights between Lu Zheng, Xue Qianyu, Huo Junhao, and Meng Meng over the years. By the pond, Meng Meng and Huo Junhao tried to prank Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu but ended up getting beaten up instead.
On a certain patch of grass, Gu Si used a snake to scare Huo Junhao, making him scream in terror. It was all an act, but Gu Si is still unaware of it.
During Gu Xin's teenage years, she had brothers and sisters, best friends, the boy who wholeheartedly cared for her, as well as her parents, grandparents, and all her family members.
She was so happy.
Holding Xiao Yu's urn, Cheng Huaijin looked at Gu Xin's joyful expression, as if he could see Xiao Yu's situation after being reincarnated, with relatives and friends, and a close young man.
Many villagers mistook Gu Xin for Gu Nian, because Gu Xin had changed so much. She had grown taller and prettier, just like Gu Nian when she was fifteen or sixteen. Coincidentally, Gu Nian was also frequently seen in the village at that time.
Gu Xin naturally had to explain everything.
Returning to the village, those people he used to dislike now seemed indifferent. Moreover, because of their changed status as Gu Jia, the villagers spoke to them with a hint of fear.
...
At this moment in Kuncheng, Gu Shouxin received another imperial edict, a transfer order appointing him as the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites, ordering him to take office in October of this year.
At the same time, Qian Liangduo was promoted to Prefect of Kunzhou and was betrothed to Princess Jinghe.
Princess Jinghe had been promoted to princess because she had joined the Peng family's army and had completed many missions in the past few years. However, her rank was not as high as Gu Xin's, but she didn't care at all.
The couple set their wedding date for August. The Prince and Princess Kang were doing quite well in Kunzhou and had no plans to return to the capital to hold the wedding in Jinghe County. They decided to hold the ceremony in Kunzhou instead.
However, the emperor has already sent people to repair Princess Jinghe's residence. The court officials can all see that if this prince consort stays in Kunzhou for another three years, he will definitely be able to be transferred back to the capital.
Prince Kang secretly wrote a letter back to the capital to complain, roughly saying that he had attended many weddings and birthday parties over the years, and asked the Empress Dowager and the Emperor to think of a way to get all the families he had attended to return the favor in Kunzhou.
