The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

Princess Yichun looked at Country Lord Ning. She was already in her thirties before she thought of living a stable life. Other women the same age as her were already grandmothers. How years did she have in her life to play with?

“On account of our past relationship, I advise you to behave yourself. You have to know that things are different now. The people above can’t tolerate sand in their eyes. Also, I don’t want those shares anymore. You don’t have to give me dividends in the future.”

How could she not want those shares? Had she heard something?

Country Lord Ning said humbly, “Sister, do you think the dividends are too little? I can give you another 20%.”

Princess Yichun was unmoved and looked at her indifferently. “There’s no need. In short, you have to be careful in the future.” Princess Yichun suddenly leaned over and stared at Ning Xiangjun. “Remember, I’ve never taken your dividends. Don’t think of threatening me with a score. As long as you’re obedient, I won’t let you suffer if anything happens.”

She didn’t even want 20% of the bonus and even threatened her. It seemed that she had really heard the news. These royal relatives were like blood-sucking leeches that couldn’t be shaken off when they got involved. If there was any movement, they would run faster than rabbits.

If Princess Yichun was not helping, they would split up. No one can get anything out of it.

Country Ning endured her resentment and forced a smile. “How would I dare? If Sister hadn’t helped me all these years, I would have been bitten to death long ago. Sister, please tell me if there’s bad news on account of our past relationship.”

“Sigh!” Princess Yichun sighed and reminded her vaguely, “On account of the fact that you’re still sensible, I advise you to restrain yourself and keep a low profile. Do what needs to be done in the dark. Otherwise, it’ll be difficult to get out when others find evidence.”

Princess Yichun’s cold voice was like a thunderclap in Country Lord Ning’s ears. She suddenly understood why she didn’t want even 20% of the dividends. It turned out that the higher-ups had begun to investigate.

“Thank you for telling me, Sister. I’ll wrap things up when I get back.”

Seeing her sad expression, Princess Yichun suddenly couldn’t bear to see her like this. “Go! It’s not good for you to win or lose in the Yang family’s matter. I advise you to end it as soon as possible!”

Why was she pretending to be a good person now? Ning Xiangjun cursed silently and bowed. “Yes, Sister.”

Ning Xiangjun came out of the Princess Yichun’s residence with resentment. She sat in the carriage and thought about Princess Yichun’s words. The carriage swayed toward her residence.

When Granny Wei arrived at the Gu family, she asked the doorman to call Li Fengqi out. When Li Fengqi saw Granny Wei, he smiled and bowed. “Granny, why are you looking for me?”

Granny Wei smiled. “High Scholar Li, let’s talk in the teahouse over there.” Li Fengqi nodded and walked towards the teahouse with Granny Wei.

Little Loach and Maizi quietly followed them to the teahouse and saw them go upstairs.

Little Loach and Maizi skipped up the stairs after him. They said to the shop assistant, “My father won’t be here until later. Give us a cup of sugar cane juice first.”

“Alright! Please wait a moment.” The shop assistant smiled and went down to prepare the sugarcane juice.

The two of them sat down at the table next to Li Fengqi and the old woman.

Granny Wei and Li Fengqi did not expect that the two children were watching them. When they saw the two children drinking a mouthful of sugarcane juice and starting to fiddle with the slingshots in their hands, they no longer paid attention to the two children.

Granny Wei lowered her voice and told Li Fengqi what Ning Xiangjun had said.

“What?” Li Fengqi shouted in shock when he heard that. He watched as Granny Wei kept shaking her head.

Granny Wei looked at him coldly. “High Scholar Li, do you think anyone can enter the Directorate? Think about it yourself. Even if you don’t go, as long as the things you gave Master fall into the hands of the Zhou family, you won’t have a good time.”

Granny Wei’s words were as harsh as gravel, but his hopes of getting on the rankings after entering the Directorate tempted him.

Li Fengqi lowered his head and hesitated for a long time, but he still could not resist the temptation of fame and fortune. “I’m not confident either. I can only try.”

Granny Wei nodded in satisfaction and smiled. “Alright, I believe High Scholar

Li won’t disappoint Master.”

Li Fengqi added, “I can’t guarantee that it will work. You know that their family is only nominally related to mine.”

Granny Wei said softly, “Take it slow. My master knows that it’s not easy, so she’s not forcing you to do it immediately.”

After Granny Wei left, Li Fengqi sat there in a daze for a while before getting up and walking downstairs.

Little Loach and Maizi finished the sugarcane juice in two mouthfuls and followed behind him. Seeing that he had returned to the Gu family, Little Loach said to Maizi, “Maizi, go back and report to Uncle Xiang. I’ll continue to guard him here.”

Maizi nodded, called a carriage, and headed east.

Ji Xiang brought the Maizi to see Li Yu. Maizi said, “Madam, that old woman spoke in a low voice. We only heard her say that she wanted to give High Scholar Li benefits. She even mentioned the Directorate and said that he won’t be able to gain anything from the Zhou family. High Scholar Li hesitated for a long time before agreeing. Little Loach asked me to come back and report. He’s still guarding there.”

Li Yu analyzed, “It seems that Li Fengqi was indeed the one who revealed the

Zhang family’s matter to Country Lord Ning. She was also the one who went to Tongzhou to pick up the Zhang family and bring them to the capital. She bribed Li Fengqi to use Laidi’s relationship with me. It seems that she still wants to attack the children.”

“Ji Xiang, Country Lord Ning is about to fall. Go and pick up Little Loach. You don’t have to keep an eye on Li Fengqi. Let’s wait for Laidi and see if she comes. We’ll know how she chooses. Don’t let her get close to Yang’er, Yue’er and

Xing’er.”

“Yes, Madam.” Ji Xiang agreed and went to pick up Little Loach.

Maizi looked at Li Yu. “Madam, are they trying to steal Young Masters?”

Li Yu nodded and looked at Maizi who had turned red from the cold. She said gently, “They won’t succeed. Go back and take a shower and change your clothes to warm up.”

“Yes!” Maizi agreed crisply. After taking two steps, he returned to Li Yu and said seriously, “Madam, don’t worry. We’ll protect Young Master.”

Li Yu stood up and stroked his furry head. She smiled and nodded. “I believe you can do it.”

Li Fengqi returned to the Gu family and finished explaining the last part of the lesson to the children. Then, he packed his things and returned to the small courtyard. He saw Laidi sitting under the eaves of the porch and warming herself.

Laidi looked up and saw Li Fengqi. “Why are you back so early today?”

Li Fengqi made up a story. “They were going to visit their relatives today, so I came back early.”

Laidi nodded. “Oh! Why are you standing there? Come and warm up.”

Li Fengqi walked over and sat down. He looked at Laidi. “I heard from them that your cousin gave birth to a pair of sons.. Aren’t you going to take a look?”
