The life swap begins with Consort Hua becoming Lady Qin.

They are the mother's own flesh and blood, who carried her for ten months and gave birth to her.

She was abandoned by her uncle and aunt when she was very young, but after growing up and returning to her side, she still longed to gain her some affection and recognition... the youngest legitimate daughter.

Hey……

Suppressing her heartache, the answer she came to was—

The person who cares most about their reputation, the person who is least willing to sacrifice everything, and the person who cares about the most things, is destined to suffer the most grievances and is the easiest to be manipulated!

So she doesn't care anymore in this lifetime!

"In this life, I will still not implicate others, but others should not even think about implicating me again."

"Nobody will do!"

Forget about reputation, dignity, other people's future prospects, likes and dislikes.

What's it to her!

In this life, she just wants to do everything to the fullest!

Let's start right now!

Heaven took pity on her and allowed her to return to the age of seven.

Marriage, imperial concubine selection, empress, children—all of that is still a long way off.

If you don't try to make your life more comfortable and enjoyable, then you're really being foolish!

So in the days that followed, she became increasingly unrestrained.

If the food is delicious each day, that's fine. If it doesn't suit your taste, you can ask the kitchen to make a few more dishes. If you don't like the food at this time, you can ask the cook to make it again according to the method she knows!

She enjoyed her meal, and didn't forget to give a piece or two to the maid beside her.

When she's in the mood, she'll even set up a chessboard.

When she wants to play seriously, she looks up chess manuals or teaches Zhaoying to play against herself. When she's not interested, she just arranges the chess pieces in various ways. How she plays is up to her!

As long as she's happy!

When the weather was nice, she would have people set up a pitch-pot game in the yard, and even if she missed eight out of ten times, she would still get more and more excited as she threw.

I also occasionally arrange flowers.

However, this is something she couldn't learn in either of her two lifetimes. There's nothing she can do about it; it's probably something she was born with. What she likes is just so vulgar that she can never be a refined and elegant person in her entire life!

Oh well, let her arrange it however she likes; it's just stuff in her own room anyway.

When the weather got warmer and people could sit by the small pond in the courtyard, she asked someone to bring out small stools and tables, set up her fishing rod, and sat by the pond to fish.

The fish in the pond at the Fucha residence were all kept for show and were well-fed, so they didn't even glance at her small amount of bait and wouldn't bite for half a day.

She wasn't angry. She simply stuck the pole aside, covered her face with a handkerchief, and then slept soundly.

Unexpectedly, her composure and her open and honest attitude, which were almost frank, gradually put Jue Luo's mind at ease.

Later, when Li Rongbao returned home, he was quite surprised when his wife told him about the changes in their daughter over the past few days.

He pondered for a moment, then looked at Jue Luo Shi: "I heard a colleague mention something the other day. He has a daughter who used to be quiet and very gentle. But one day she suddenly changed her personality and became extremely rebellious. She even deliberately injured her own face."

Jue Luo was greatly surprised and hurriedly asked, "Why is this?"

"What else could it be?" Li Rongbao sighed. "They believed the gossip of the servants in the courtyard, thinking that her parents gave birth to her and raised her in luxury because they had long ago decided to sell her to powerful and wealthy people for personal gain."

Jue Luo's expression changed.

Li Rongbao continued, "That child felt that her parents only suppressed her and never praised her. They always wanted her to do her best, not for her own good, but so that they could sell her for a good price in the future."

"nonsense!"

Jue Luo Shi almost immediately retorted, as if stung by something, her face turning pale with anger: "I didn't do that."

Seeing that she looked unwell, Li Rongbao quickly softened his tone: "I was just saying it casually, our Langhua is certainly not like that."

The room fell silent.

After a moment, Jue Luo gritted her teeth and said, "This child is truly resourceful. I won't interfere much anymore; I'll just find her a good tutor when she's old enough."

Her tone held a hint of grievance and frustration: "Just like she said, her surname is Fucha, and her future is probably still up to you, her father. What am I, her mother? I'm nothing more than a wicked old woman who brought her into this world through a womb."

Upon hearing this, Li Rongbao dared not continue speaking. He quickly sat down to coax her, and after much persuasion, he managed to calm Jue Luo Shi down a bit.

The next day, Li Rongbao finally couldn't resist his curiosity and went to his daughter's courtyard himself.

When he arrived, Wang Ruofu was playing pitch-pot in the courtyard with several maids.

The little girl was wearing a light-colored cheongsam, her hair was neatly combed, but her sleeves were rolled up a little, and she was squinting as she aimed at the spout of the teapot.

The arrow flew from his hand in the next moment.

I didn't win.

Zhao Ying couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Wang Ruofu wasn't annoyed. Instead, he turned around and said, "What are you laughing at? Come here."

Zhao Ying immediately looked distressed: "Princess, please spare this servant."

A soft laugh immediately rang out in the courtyard.

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, Li Rongbao looked at the scene and a smile involuntarily appeared in his eyes.

Wang Ruofu saw him first, put down the arrow in his hand, and stepped forward to bow respectfully.

"Daughter greets Father."

His manners were impeccable, and his movements were graceful.

Li Rongbao nodded inwardly, but his smile remained gentle: "Get up."

After Wang Ruofu got up, he instructed Shen Guang to serve tea.

Li Rongbao waved his hand: "No need to bother. I just stopped by to drop by."

As he spoke, he gestured for the servant behind him to bring over a box: "These are some little trinkets I brought back from my trip, to keep you entertained."

Wang Ruofu's eyes lit up. He took the box, opened it, and saw several exquisite trinkets and two beautifully colored beaded flowers inside. He immediately smiled genuinely.

"Thank you, Father."

Seeing that she was happy, Li Rongbao's mood improved considerably.

He said a few more words, which were nothing more than telling her to listen to her mother and take good care of herself.

Wang Ruofu agreed to all of them.

Before leaving, Wang Ruofu wanted to personally serve tea, but Li Rongbao politely declined, saying that he had other important matters to attend to.

Wang Ruofu then said respectfully, "Your daughter respectfully sees Father off."

Li Rongbao turned and walked out, but when he reached the courtyard gate, he suddenly looked back.

The maids in the courtyard also bowed, each one slightly shorter than the daughter, their movements synchronized and graceful.

A strange look flashed across Li Rongbao's eyes. His wife's words about their daughter's skill in managing her subordinates seemed to be true.

The rules in this courtyard are indeed quite different.

He walked out of the courtyard gate, and soon after, he heard Wang Ruofu laughing and joking with her maids.

They hadn't gone far when a steward came up and whispered a report about how Wang Ruofu had corrected Jue Luo's words in the hall that day.

As Li Rongbao listened, he not only didn't get angry, but a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.

After the steward finished speaking, he stood with his hands behind his back for a moment, then suddenly said, "Prepare the carriage, let's go to Second Brother's residence."

Two days later, Ma Qi's wife, Guarjia, personally came to visit.
