Transmigration: Becoming the Wicked Stepmother of Four Children

Chapter 245 Sending the Children to Take the Imperial Examination

As night falls and the city lights come on,

Red candles burned brightly in the bridal chamber.

It made the whole room feel warm and festive.

Lin Yunlan gently pushed open the door.

Holding Lu Qingqing's hand, he slowly entered the bridal chamber.

As soon as I entered, I heard a burst of cheerful laughter.

It turned out that it was Sister Liu and her family with Shitou, Shuang'er, and a few other children.

They've been waiting for the wedding night pranks for ages.

"Oh, the bride and groom have finally come in!"

Sister Liu joked with a smile.

"On such a joyous day today,

We really need to have some fun!

Stone and the other children were even more excited.

Jumping and bouncing around the room.

Shuang'er ran to Lu Qingqing's side and took her hand.

He said with a grin:

"Mother, your wedding dress is so beautiful, you look like a fairy."

Lu Qingqing smiled and patted Shuang'er's head.

Her cheeks were flushed.

Lin Yunlan stood by, watching this heartwarming scene.

Full of happiness.

Looking at the two of them, Sister Liu said:

"According to our old rules"

The newlyweds should give red envelopes to the children!

Lin Yunlan hurriedly picked up the red envelope bag that had been prepared beforehand from the table.

They were distributed to the children.

The children cheered and jumped for joy as they received the red envelopes.

He kept saying:

"Thank you, Father! Thank you, Mother!"

But the wedding night pranks had only just begun.

Sister Liu smiled and said again:

Simply sending red envelopes isn't enough.

We all know the groom is a good writer.

"How about composing a poem on the spot to praise our bride?"

The crowd started to jeer:

"Alright, alright, Yunlan, quickly compose a poem to praise Qingqing!"

Lin Yunlan blushed slightly, and pondered for a moment.

He said in a loud voice:

"Your graceful figure is reflected in the candlelight, your tender feelings and sweet sentiments linger long."

Today we tie a knot of unity, may we soar together as wing to wing in the next life.

Lu Qingqing listened, her heart filled with sweetness.

She lowered her head shyly.

Although the children didn't quite understand the meaning of the poem,

But they also clapped and cheered.

Stone said impatiently:

"I have some blessings to say to my father and mother."

"Me too! Me too!"

The children shouted in unison.

The children's voices rose and fell.

The stone stood ramrod straight, its little face full of seriousness.

He said loudly:

"Father, Mother, I wish you to be like a great tree."

They always relied on each other, sheltering each other from the wind and rain.

In the days to come,

Wishing you happiness every day!

no matter what happens,

We must hold hands and get through this together.

Lu Qingqing and Lin Yunlan listened,

His face was full of a relieved smile.

"Thank you, Stone."

Lu Qingqing and Lin Yunlan replied in unison.

Immediately afterwards, Shuang'er also rushed forward eagerly.

With bright, sparkling eyes, she said in a clear, crisp voice:

"Father, Mother"

Shuang'er hopes your life is as sweet as sugar.

Later,

Let's have another little brother or sister for Shuang'er.

Shuang'er played with her younger siblings.

After saying that, she playfully stuck out her tongue.

Thank you, Shuang'er.

"Daddy will try his best to give you a younger brother or sister soon."

As Lin Yunlan finished speaking,

Lu Qingqing, standing to the side, pinched his arm shyly.

Sanmao, standing to the side, said somewhat shyly:

"Father, Mother"

Sanmao wished you to be like the stars and the moon in the sky.

We will always be there for each other and never be apart.

Whether it is day or night,

They can both give each other warmth and light.

"Thank you, Sanmao."

At this point, Er Mao was not to be outdone.

Looking up with her rosy cheeks, she said in a childish voice:

"May Father become more and more powerful."

I can earn lots and lots of money to buy my mother beautiful clothes.

I also wish my mother eternal youth and beauty, like a fairy.

"Thank you, Er Mao."

Lu Qingqing and Lin Yunlan both said happily.

This went on for quite a while.

Seeing that it was getting late, Sister Liu smiled and said:

"Okay, okay,"

Let's not disturb their rest.

"Children, let's go."

Although Stone and the others were still not satisfied,

But she obediently followed Sister Liu and left.

After everyone left, the candlelight flickered in the bridal chamber.

Tranquil and cozy.

Lin Yunlan slowly walked to Lu Qingqing's side.

Gently lift her red veil.

Lu Qingqing tilted her head slightly and met Lin Yunlan's gaze.

Their eyes were filled with deep affection and shyness.

Lin Yunlan gently took Lu Qingqing's hand.

He said softly:

"My dear, today I am finally officially marrying you into our family."

I feel like I'm dreaming.

Lu Qingqing's cheeks flushed, and she responded softly:

"Fool, how could it be a dream?"

Seeing so many people come to send us their blessings today.

I'm quite happy too.

Lin Yunlan nodded with a smile.

"Yes, it's all thanks to the help of the villagers."

He paused, a hint of emotion flashing in his eyes.

"My dear, what will the days to come be like?"

I will definitely treat you well and won't let you suffer the slightest grievance.

Lu Qingqing looked up at Lin Yunlan.

Trust and love shone in his eyes.

"Yunlan, I believe in you."

Lin Yunlan gently pulled Lu Qingqing into his arms.

He recounted his joy at that moment.

Lu Qingqing leaned against Lin Yunlan's chest.

A happy smile spread across his face.

Lin Yunlan gently kissed Lu Qingqing's forehead.

"My love, for the rest of my life, I will always be with you."

Having seen all the world's beautiful scenery and tasted all the flavors of life.

Lu Qingqing nestled quietly in Lin Yunlan's arms.

On their quiet wedding night, the two...

Imagining life in the future,

Their love for each other grew even stronger in this warm atmosphere...

In a blink of an eye,

Then came the day when the children took the entrance exam for the imperial examination.

The sky was just beginning to lighten.

Lin Yunlan had already stood up nimbly.

After carefully inspecting the carriage

It then came to a steady stop at the front door.

Lu Qingqing was already busy inside the house.

She carefully prepared several snacks that the children love.

Wrap it in a clean cloth.

He repeatedly reminded Shi Tou and the others of the precautions for the exam.

Once everything is ready,

Then he led Shitou, Ermao, and Sanmao out the door.

The children were all full of energy.

Although he couldn't hide the tension in his eyes,

But more than anything, there was anticipation and a strong determination to succeed in this exam.

Lin Yunlan smiled and beckoned the children to get in the car.

"Children, don't be nervous."

Just treat it like a regular test, and perform normally.

Lu Qingqing helped the children into the car.

I sat down as well.

He looked at each child with concern.

The carriage slowly set off, its wheels rolling on the dirt road.

It makes rhythmic sounds.

along the way,

Lu Qingqing gently comforted Er Mao, who seemed a little nervous.

"Er Mao, if you encounter a problem you don't know how to solve..."

Don't panic, do the questions you can answer later first.

There are also stones; please be careful when answering the questions.

Please make sure your handwriting is neat.

Stone nodded seriously.

"Mother, don't worry, I've remembered everything."

Er Mao obediently replied:

"Yes, Mother, I will be careful."

His gaze fell on Sanmao.

Lu Qingqing's eyes were full of trust.

"Sanmao, your mother isn't too worried about you."

You have always been calm and composed.

"Mom believes in you, just do your best."

Sanmao nodded slightly.

His eyes shone with confidence and certainty.

Mother, don't worry.

I will definitely not let you and Dad down.

Lin Yunlan steadily drove the carriage,

Through the gap in the carriage curtain,

Observing the children's expressions, I offered encouragement when appropriate:

"Your efforts these past few days"

Both father and mother saw it.

As long as you perform to your best ability,

Regardless of the outcome, it will be a source of pride for us.

As the carriage gradually approached the examination venue...

The number of test takers and their parents accompanying them to the exams is also increasing.

The lively and noisy sounds entered the carriage.

The children's expressions grew increasingly tense.

Lin Yunlan parked the carriage in a relatively quiet spot near the examination hall.

Turning to the children, he said:

"We're here, kids."

Lu Qingqing helped the children tidy their clothes.

They then served some snacks.

"You can eat something before entering the exam room to tide you over."

Don't go hungry.

The children nodded and got off the bus.

Under the expectant and encouraging gazes of Lu Qingqing and Lin Yunlan,

With firm steps, I walked towards the examination hall.

They are going to face this important test in their lives.
