Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

So, over the next two days, Qianqian actually did not rest a single day, continuing to press on tirelessly.

This was hard on Luo Shun and Yan Jie; they complained all the way, but could do nothing about it, only gritting their teeth and following Qianqian onward.

After a full five days of long travel, the three finally arrived at the city gate of Dachang Capital.

Standing before this majestic city gate, Qianqian felt an indescribable excitement and anticipation.

She seemed to already smell the foul odor on herself, but this did not affect her determination to enter the city impatiently.

Without hesitation, Qianqian strode through the city gate, with Yan Jie and Luo Shun closely following behind.

The three of them went straight along the street toward An Wangfu; along the way, Qianqian's steps were especially light, as if the joy of returning home had already made her forget the fatigue of the journey.

Soon, the solemn gate of An Wangfu came into view.

Luo Shun had silently followed Qianqian all the way, watching her move firmly toward Dachang Kingdom, and an inexplicable fear welled up in his heart.

After all, he himself was a Xishang Kingdom person; regarding this unfamiliar Dachang Kingdom, he knew nothing, and his future was full of unknowns and fear.

However, whenever he caught sight of Qianqain's smile that came from the heart because she was about to return home, the unease in his heart would lessen somewhat. That smile was so sincere and warm, making him feel a bit reassured.

But since entering the city, as they went deeper into the city center, Luo Shun's unease grew stronger instead.

He began to realize that he had truly clung to a "big thigh"—Qianqian obviously had a certain status and background in Dachang Kingdom.

But at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder what value he actually had that would make Qianqian willing to let him cling to this "big thigh"?

Thus, Luo Shun's heart struggled constantly in entanglement and contradiction—on one side was fear of the unknown, on the other was dependence on and trust in Qianqian.

And in this entangled mood, he still followed Qianqian closely, walking firmly toward An Wangfu.,

Not long after, Qianqian arrived at the gate. She looked around and found only a single gatekeeper standing there alone, with no one else around.

This was because the news of Qianqian's return had not been told to anyone in advance; she chose to return to Qianji Yuan alone first.

Qianqian had Yan Jie temporarily arrange Luo Shun in his own courtyard; after all, Luo Shun was a man, and it was obviously not appropriate for him to live in Qianqian's courtyard. After arranging everything, Qianqian walked into her own courtyard.

Just as she entered the courtyard, Qianqian noticed a big fluffy thing lying lazily at the door. Looking closely, it turned out to be Daji.

Daji had now grown quite stout, weighing a full ten jin, looking exactly like a "blob" cat.

Daji seemed to sense Qianqian's arrival, but only lazily lifted his eyelids to glance at her, then continued to bury his head in a nap, completely indifferent to Qianqian's return.

However, in sharp contrast to Daji, Mantou, who was tidying up in the courtyard, lit up the moment he saw Qianqian.

He threw down his broom like a gust of wind, hurried over in a small run, and kept shouting in his mouth: "Miss, the Miss is back!"

This shout seemed like a magic spell; the originally busy Jiaozi, Baozi, Mian Tiao, and Hua Hua all stopped their work and hurried over following Mantou's voice.

Since Qianqian left, everyone in the courtyard felt the place had become empty, and every day they looked forward eagerly to Qianqian's early return.

Now Qianqian finally returned at noon, and everyone was naturally overjoyed, chattering as they surrounded Qianqian and walked into the courtyard.,

Qianqian looked at the enthusiastic crowd, a faint smile appearing on her face, and said softly: "Alright, alright, you all tidy up my things first. I need to go see my mother first."

Mantou, hearing this, quickly replied: "Yes, Miss." Then he turned and began to organize Qianqian's luggage.

Hua Hua quickly walked to Qianqian's side, smiling and saying: "Miss, I'll go with you."

Qianqian smiled and nodded, saying: "Alright, then I'll trouble Hua Hua."

So, the two walked together toward An Wangfei's courtyard.

And the news of Qianqian's return had already spread like wings throughout the entire fu di.

The servants ran to tell each other, and one clever servant even rushed to An Wangfei's courtyard without stopping to tell her the good news.

An Wangfei was overjoyed upon learning Qianqian had returned, and immediately wanted to go to Qianji Yuan to see her daughter. However, just as she was preparing to set out, she was stopped by Shangguan Xingyu who had hurried over.

Shangguan Xingyu held the cute Xiao Jing'er in her arms, quickly walked to An Wangfei's side, and said with a smile: "Mother Consort, the younger sister must have returned to the courtyard to tidy up first. Going now, she might not even be seen. Why not wait a bit before going?"

An Wangfei had been somewhat anxious, but hearing Shangguan Xingyu's words, she felt it made some sense, and calmed down a little.

She looked at Xiao Jing'er in Shangguan Xingyu's arms, and maternal love welled up in her heart; she reached out to take Xiao Jing'er and said gently: "Alright, then we'll wait in the courtyard for a while."

After speaking, An Wangfei held Xiao Jing'er and returned to the courtyard together with Shangguan Xingyu.

The two teased Xiao Jing'er while patiently waiting for Qianqian's arrival.,

Not long after, a clear and pleasant sound came from outside the courtyard: "Mother, Mother!" The sound came from far to near, as if carrying endless joy and affection.

An Wangfei sat inside the house; hearing this familiar call, a surge of excitement welled up in her heart. She knew Qianqian was back!

However, amidst the excitement, she suddenly felt a bit at a loss, not knowing how to face her daughter after a long separation.

Just as An Wangfei's thoughts were in turmoil, Qianqian had already rushed into the courtyard like a gust of wind, running straight into the house. As soon as she entered, her gaze was drawn to Shangguan Xingyu sitting to the side and Yan Jingxi held in An Wangfei's arms.

"Second Sister-in-Law, Xiao Jing'er is here too!" A brilliant smile bloomed on Qianqian's face; she quickly walked to Shangguan Xingyu and greeted her enthusiastically.

Shangguan Xingyu, seeing this, quickly stood up to welcome her, smiling and saying: "Qianqian is back, sit down quickly, sit down quickly! You've had a hard journey; have some water and rest first." Saying this, she poured a cup of steaming hot tea for Qianqian.

After thanking her, Qianqian plopped down on the chair, picked up the teacup, and took a light sip. Then she turned her gaze to Yan Jingxi in An Wangfei's arms, affection showing in her eyes.

"Xiao Jing'er, come, let Auntie hold you!" Qianqian smiled and reached out, taking Yan Jingxi from An Wangfei's arms and playing with him.
