I was a stepmother in ancient times, and I led my whole family to wealth.

Chapter 312 Parents Reunite



Chapter 312 Parents Reunite

Yu Ying raised her chin proudly and said, "It's not that I think too highly of you, it's that you have this ability."

You have no idea, but the cement, bricks, and that soil you gave His Majesty for road construction...

The four major powers in the martial arts world have all personally approached our Emperor.

They offered His Majesty many benefits in order to obtain these production methods.

As for the Yun family in the south, they guarantee they will monitor the movements of the Southern Qiang Kingdom and the Cangli Kingdom.

"And your bicycle, these days in the aristocratic circles of the capital, if any young master can own one, he will be looked up to."

And those bronze mirrors, dressing tables, and matching chairs and stools became among the most sought-after dowry items for noble ladies in the capital.

Dongfang Jin...

Is it that popular?

It feels like we've traveled back to the era when her parents got married.

H City's Peony sewing machines, Forever 28 bicycles, Seagull watches, and transistor radios.

Getting married? Looks like I'll have to open a store specializing in wedding supplies.

Yes, it's definitely going to be a hit.

Ruyi, [Let Gu Chenglin take those things out; you have other things to do.]

That bicycle alone will keep them busy for generations to come.

As for the rest, forget it, we can't take them out anyway.

Dongfang Jin...

The things the Imperial Tutor and Elder Chu gave her were enough to keep her busy for a year.

Want anything else?

just forget it.

Besides, can you get fat in one bite?

For now, one 28-inch bicycle and one 26-inch model are enough to keep them selling for a while. It's not too late to release 24-inch and children's models in two or three years.

Yu Ying said with a smile, "The Southern Qiang Kingdom also sent a message through the Yun family, saying that if our emperor can successfully experiment with multi-season rice, they will become a vassal state of our Eastern neighboring country."

Hopefully, good news will come from my son-in-law soon.

Dongfang Jin: "..." So heartbroken!

She also hoped that Gu Chenglin would succeed.

That guy acted like it was perfectly natural to be a "traitor within the family."

If you want to show off, then go for it!

Yes, on the very day that Gu Chenglin and his team successfully started the waterwheel, Prince Dun Cang Nanxi, Emperor Cang Lingyuan, and Master Jingkong of Jingchan Temple visited Lingwu Village.

I personally witnessed Gu Chenglin and his team install the "Yellow River waterwheel" and successfully conduct the experiment.

That night, Emperor Cang Lingyuan told her about her background.

Moreover, Prince Dun, Cangnanxi, showed her pictures of the clothes she was wearing and all the jewelry she was wearing when she went missing.

She clearly remembered the things Ruyi took out after she saw those pictures.

She was so shocked she couldn't believe it.

She asked Ruyi where these things came from, and Ruyi said that they were all kept in the pile of things at the Zheng family's house.

what does this mean?

When she took out those things, Prince Dun, Cang Nanxi, hugged them and cried his heart out like a child, which startled her.

For a grown man to cry like that, it seems he truly loves his daughter.

They had never stopped searching for her for the past ten years, but unfortunately, they never expected that their daughter would be imprisoned by the Fang family.

If it weren't for the incident of the substitute marriage, I probably would never have seen her in this lifetime.

Unfortunately, it was too late; their biological daughter had already been reincarnated.

Later, she used the compass provided by Master Jingkong to perform a blood test to confirm her kinship with Prince Dun Cangnanxi.

To be on the safe side, Master Jingkong also had her undergo a blood test to confirm her kinship with Emperor Cang Lingyuan.

What I didn't expect was the blood relation level displayed on Master Jingkong's compass.

Her blood relation with Cang Lingyuan was actually higher than that with her father, Cang Nanxi.

Cang Nanxi's face was extremely dark at the time. He even said that if it weren't for the fact that she looked so much like her mother and that he had witnessed her birth, he would have suspected that she and the emperor were siblings.

This made Cang Lingyuan extremely happy.

He immediately bestowed upon her the title of Princess Anqing, but in the end, it was her adoptive father, Cang Nanxi, who suppressed the matter, saying that since he was still the emperor's father, it was against etiquette for the emperor to do so.

In the end, it was Master Jingkong who persuaded the emperor to change his mind and personally bestow upon her the title of Princess Anqing.

When Emperor Cang Lingyuan offered to grant her a fiefdom, her adoptive father flatly refused.

Because her adoptive father's fiefdom of Suzhou was larger than the two southern states, it wouldn't be good for him to ask for more fiefdoms.

In the end, the emperor had no choice but to give up.

In the following days, they visited a cement plant, a brick kiln, and an old housing renovation area in Ling'an County.

During the conversation, Dongfang Jin learned about the old house renovation issue she had raised.

Now, under the leadership of her elder brother Cang Lingchen and Changsun Lan, they are gradually expanding outwards from the capital city.

The highways also spread outwards from the capital, and were built by Hua Yunshu, Lu Yunqing's cousin, and the two grandsons of the Duke of Fuguo.

It was later learned that Cang Lingyuan had not distributed the spring wheat seeds because he planned to have the people plant them uniformly in the autumn, breaking the tradition of planting wheat in the spring.

This time, Cang Lingyuan raised a crucial question: he wanted to invite Gu Chenglin to the experimental site at the Imperial Estate to grow multi-season rice.

Since Gu Chenglin is currently leading a group of people to install the water cart, and those people are already familiar with the process, there's no point in him following along.

Even if Dongfang Jin was extremely unhappy, she had no choice but to agree.

That very night, Dongfang Jin had them ride on a lucky blanket and took Gu Chenglin with them to the capital.

At the time, Yu Ying was in the palace with Cang Lingchen, and when she returned, she brought her back with her.

Yueying added, "Our family's potatoes are now grown by quite a few families in the capital."

In particular, Lan Shizi had already promoted it in the newspapers, and he even drew pictures of potatoes in the newspapers, which everyone knows.

Later, those people also visited the greenhouse in Huangzhuang where potatoes were unearthed.

I heard that the potato seeds His Majesty brought out were snapped up by Eunuch An and his men before they even had a chance to advertise them.

And the wheat in the imperial estates—who knows how many people are eyeing it?

Dongfang Jin looked at the two of them looking at her with such admiration and laughed: "Alright, you two stop talking. If you keep talking, your young lady will start to get cocky."

Let's go back quickly, Long Er sent a message saying that the Empress is pregnant.

We need to get everything ready quickly so we can deliver it to her tonight.

Yu Ying asked excitedly, "Miss, is it the Ruyi Carpet?"

Dongfang Jin did not answer her question, but shook his head and used his inner strength to float down the mountain: "There are quite a lot of things to send this time, so you should stay at home with your father and mother."

As soon as Dongfang Jin returned with Yu Ying and Yue Ying, he heard cheers and laughter from the house.

Yu Ying whispered, "It seems that Master and Madam have arrived."

At this moment, Yueying pulled Dongfang Jin closer and whispered, "Miss, why do I hear the Empress's voice in my voice?"

Dongfang Jin stopped in her tracks, her face filled with shock. "Ruyi, is it true?"

Ruyi, [Seriously, our house is surrounded by people, both openly and secretly, like an iron barrel.]

Dongfang Jin: "..."

speechless

OK?

Isn't the Empress pregnant?

Why did they follow me out of the palace?

What was this emperor thinking?

Ruyi, [They looked like they were on an incognito visit, but not quite; they were dressed very plainly, more like they were visiting relatives.]

Moreover, the emperor didn't have any eunuchs or officials with him; only your parents and some secret guards were by his side.

Dongfang Jin exhaled deeply, "Who are all those people in that courtyard? It's so lively!"

[These are Grandpa Yu, Village Chief Lin, Clan Chief Sun, Clan Chief Xu, and Grandpa Xu.]

Dongfang Jin smiled. Since Long Jiu left, the children in the valley have been entrusted to Yueying and Yuying.

She also always stayed in the valley. Xia Lan said that they would come to her house almost every day.

Yu Ying exclaimed in surprise, "Miss, this...?"

Dongfang Jin laughed: "Try to look natural, don't give yourself away."

"Yes!"

Dongfang Jin exhaled, knowing that she would meet force with force and water with earth.

"Let's go!"

When Dongfang Jin appeared in everyone's sight with Yu Ying and Yue Ying, it attracted everyone's attention.

Her appearance seemed to put the lively scene on pause.

Instead, there was an almost imperceptible silence.
