Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

Generally speaking, the guards would usually let through those who looked familiar or were clearly important figures. But for unfamiliar faces who seemed to be from out of town, they would still conduct an interrogation.

And so, Wei Shengsheng walked at the very front of the group; just as she reached the city gate, she was stopped by the guards and asked to show her household registration.

Although Wei Shengsheng was the daughter of the Wulin Alliance Leader and should have had household registration, because she had married into Shenyi Gu and lived in seclusion for years, she had completely forgotten about it. Thus, she was stopped by the guards just like that.

Just then, the sound of horse hooves rang out, coming from far to near. Everyone looked closely, and it turned out to be Qianqian riding a tall, large horse galloping over.

The horse had a bright coat and was fat and sturdy; at a glance one could tell it was a fine steed. And Qianqian riding on its back was even more dashing and heroic.

Qianqian didn't need to show household registration at all, because her face was the best proof of identity. The guard saw Qianqian and immediately knelt to salute, shouting aloud: "Greetings, Princess!"

He silently cursed himself in his heart; he truly had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, actually stopping the Princess's entourage—what was he to do?

However, Qianqian did not get angry over this small matter.

She smiled slightly, lightly waved her hand, and said: "It's fine, these are all my friends, no need to check them." The guard felt as if granted a great pardon, quickly stood up, cleared the way, and let everyone pass.

Qianqian led the way riding into the city, and Wei Shengsheng followed closely behind. Looking at Qianqian's back, she couldn't help but sigh: "Wow, your status is truly impressive!"

Hearing this, Qianqian smiled modestly and said: "It's alright."

But Wei Shengsheng suddenly became troubled, muttering to herself: "Your status is so exalted; my stinky brat was already good for nothing, now he's even less worthy of you." After saying this, she couldn't help but sigh.

Qianqian treated Wei Shengsheng's words as if she hadn't heard them and continued driving her horse forward. The group traveled for a while longer and finally arrived at the entrance of An Wang Fu.

The gatekeeper saw his own young lady had returned and was instantly overjoyed, quickly stepping forward with a smile all over his face: "Miss, you've finally returned!"

Next, he dared not delay in the slightest, hurriedly turning and quickly walking into the residence, preparing to report this good news to An Wangfei.

At this time, An Wangfei was sitting in Shangguan Xingyu's courtyard, chatting about family matters with her. After all, now there were only the two of them left in the household, and there was nowhere else to go. The two were chatting animatedly when suddenly they heard a rush of footsteps coming from far to near.

Before An Wangfei could react, the gatekeeper ran into the courtyard panting, and with a face full of joy said to An Wangfei: "Wangfei, Second Young Mistress, Fifth Miss, and Sixth Young Master have returned!"

Hearing this, An Wangfei was stunned, wondering if she had misheard. After all, Fifth Miss and Sixth Young Master had only left a few days ago; how could they have returned so quickly?

She had originally been discussing Qianqian and Yan Jie's matters with Shangguan Xingyu, worrying about how they were doing now.

However, the gatekeeper's repetition made An Wangfei certain she hadn't misheard. She asked somewhat surprised: "Who did you say returned?"

Seeing this, the guard quickly repeated carefully: "Replying to Wangfei, it is Fifth Miss and Sixth Young Master who have returned! Moreover, not only the two of them, they also brought back quite a few guests!"

An Wangfei couldn't help but feel a hint of doubt in her heart; she slightly furrowed her brows and asked softly: "Guests? Who exactly are they?" The guard respectfully replied: "This servant does not know, only led them all to the front hall."

An Wangfei thought for a moment, then said: "Alright, this Wangfei understands." After speaking, she and Shangguan Xingyu walked together toward the front hall.

At the same time, in the front hall, everyone was led in by the guard. Just as they stepped into the front hall, they heard Wei Shengsheng's voice: "Qianqian, your home is truly nice! This decoration is truly luxurious!"

Speaking, she reached out her hand, lightly touching the tables, chairs, and benches, as well as the exquisite vases.

Bai Yun Lan beside her saw this, his face full of a speechless expression, and couldn't help but retort: "Mother, can't you pay attention to your image? This really is rather embarrassing."

Wei Shengsheng heard this and instantly flew into a rage, cursing: "You little bastard, when I'm old and you take me out, will you still despise me for being embarrassing? You unfilial son!"

The words had not yet fallen when she casually grabbed a broom in the front hall and, full of fury, was about to strike Bai Yun Lan.

Seeing this, Bai Yun Lan was like a startled rabbit, nimbly hopping to dodge Wei Shengsheng's attack. While dodging, he didn't forget to hide behind Bai Yu, shouting loudly: "Grandfather, save me! My mother is going to beat me to death!"

Bai Yu looked at Wei Shengsheng with a helpless expression and advised earnestly: "Shengsheng, this is someone else's home, so don't hit him for now. When we get home, we'll hit him together, alright?"

Although Wei Shengsheng was somewhat unwilling, hearing her own father-in-law say this, she could only give in and said: "Fine, for your father's sake, I'll let you off for now; when we get home, I'll give you a good beating!"

The words had just fallen when the atmosphere inside, which had just been noisy, instantly became quiet, and everyone's attention was drawn to the sound coming from the door. Only hearing the maid at the door softly say: "Wangfei has arrived."

Hearing this, everyone turned to look at the door, only to see a dignified and graceful middle-aged woman slowly walking in, and beside her closely followed a young lady with a married woman's hairstyle.

Both of these two had beautiful appearances; as soon as they appeared, they were like two pearls, firmly attracting everyone's gaze.

Wei Shengsheng secretly sighed in her heart: no wonder Qianqian was so beautiful; it turned out she had inherited her mother's good genes!

An Wangfei had not deliberately dressed up, but her innate noble bearing made it impossible for people to ignore her. She walked into the room with light steps, and after her gaze swept around, it finally fell on Qianqian and Yan Jie.

Qianqian, upon seeing her mother, immediately threw herself over like a cheerful little bird, calling out in a coquettish voice: "Mother, I'm back!" Yan Jie then respectfully saluted An Wangfei and said loudly: "Mother Consort, your son is back."

An Wangfei, seeing that there were outsiders present, slightly restrained her emotions and said with a smile: "Mm, as long as you've returned safely."
